wpForo > Boards doesn't even have anything listed at all for The Board. (screenshot attached showing The Boards page of The live site and The staging site), however The staging site, which lives in The same database, does have a single board listed with boardid 0. The tables in The staging site have The prefix of wpstg2_, so that The tables for The working forum in The staging site begin with wpstg2_wpforo_.
I fear if I remove all tables with The numeric prefix in front, that will delete The forum altogether.

Hi @sarawhitford,
Check The boards in wpForo > Boards admin page, if The boardid is not 0 Then you should do some database manipulations. Use phpMyAdmin plugin or The same tool in your hosting:
If you only have one board, remove all tables with numeric prefix on front of The _wpforo like wp_2_wpforo_
Edit The wp_wpforo_boards table and set The boardid = 0
Go to Dashboard > wpForo > Overview admin page, scroll down and click The [Delete all Caches] button. |

I had no problem migrating my forum from Asgaros to wpForo on a staging site. I got everything set up and ready to go, but when I pushed The changes from The staging site to The live site using WP Staging Pro, all of The Forum settings seem to have moved over except The forum structure itself. I cleared all caches. I tried repeating The push to The live site, but nothing is working. Please advise. Both The live site and The staging site are on The same domain.
Thank you! |

Hi jackryan0307,
You can fix Error 502 by doing The following methods:
Refresh your browser and reopen it: First, you need to close your current browser and hold up a couple of moments and reopen it. It is because Sometimes your browser may stop responding due to accessing The heavy traffic of data at The same time or maybe an error page is inserted in between The pages which are loading. Even you try on another browser as well.
Reset internet configuration: You need to restart your internet modem. to do this, Unplug your internet modem and hold up for 5 seconds, after it completely turns off, Plugs it again and Wait for your computer to establish a connection again.
Disable CDN temporarily: The Content Delivery Network or commonly known as CDN improves The loading speed of a website but it can generate error 502 as well due to The firewalls. To overcome this issue, you can disable The CDN temporarily. |

Hi @dave
Here's some points to consider:
(1) Since January 2019, wpForo has had two updates.
(2) You can check The wpForo server Requirements below and compare it with your current Webhost to see if They have The minimum server requirements for wpForo to function as designed. (If your php version needs updating, usually a phone call to webhosts, They can upgrade your site quickly, possibly They can do this upgrading within one hour).
(3) If you replaced The new wpForo database tables (which currently, The latest version is wpForo Version 1.6.1) with The old tables from January 2019 (assuming wpForo Version 1.5.5 - as you wrote "to retain The old content"), There will be a mismatch on The database tables, as your above screenshot has shown.
Robert has explained it in THIS post, in response to The "How to Back Up Forum Data" . That post is helpful because it your issue is appearing like a "migration" from wpForo one server to another server.
This is how Robert explained how to correctly migrate The wpForo forum from one site to another, maybe you can try his tips below:
Good luck! |

Most of my logged in users are getting a 502 Bad Gateway error when attempting to view a post on The Forum. I read that this is a cookie problem and can be solved by clicking on "mark all read". How can I "mark all read" for every user? |

Hello,
I'm trying to set up wpforo on my website, but I'm running into an issue whenever a new user tries to "reset" Their password after getting The confirmation email.
After typing in The password I get a "502 Bad Gateway" page.
This is a brand new install of wordpress with absolutely no changes or plugins to The default install.
I've contacted wpengine The host and They say it's an issue with The plugin.
Any ideas? |

Migrating Forums database to a new server

Hello
I'm after some advice of migrating to a new server.
I'm in The process of designing a new website to replace an existing one. Same domain name, just a fresh new site and new host. The forums are locked down to members only and on a paid subscription. I don't know how migrating to a new WordPress instance with a new host/new server will work. I've installed wpFORO on The new server and am manually setting up The same sections. I'm sure There is an easier way to do it but I have time and I'm happy to do it that way. The current forums are not overly busy but all going well we should get very busy after The migration to a new host.
I have The luxury of being able to start over again and manually setup our current paid members for access.
I really want to cover all options and wondered if There was an easy way to migrate The users and content of The current forums to The new?
Additionally I purchased The embeds addon earlier this year but after reverting to a site backup have lost The function.
I did email support but have not received any reply. I need to reinstall The addon on The current forums and new one once we move. I no longer have The zip file that I downloaded.
Any advice or tips are greatly appreciated. |

Actually, I wasn't clear on that, thanks for clarifying it for me.
So it sounds like all I would need to do is remove The older AddOns and Then download Them again and reinstall Them on The staging server. That is a lot more convenient than rebuilding The server every time, and as you said, The updates are not too frequent.
On The subject of updates, do you know when The next WPForo update with The promised Post Preview will be released? I want to purchase two more AddOns (Private Messages and Polls) but I don't want to invest any more in WPForo until I see a working Post Preview function. Robert had said it was The top priority for The next release but didn't provide a release date, and I'm constantly getting hounded by my members about The lack of Post Preview.
I'd just like to be able to give Them a better answer than "I don't know"!
Thanks for your help Sofy, have a great day! |

This must be something I have configured wrong but I am having a dickins of a time finding what it is. I have searched The FAQ with no results.
My installation seems to work ok. I can post in my configured forums. However even as The admin I can only reply without an attached file. If I attach a file I get an error like this: internal server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact The server administrator at webmaster@triumphclub.org to inform Them of The time this error occurred, and The actions you performed just before this error.
More information about this error may be available in The server error log.
Additionally, a 500 internal server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle The request. The attachment actually uploads and is my media data. I just never can see my reply in The forum. If I reply with no attached file, The reply works fine.
I have looked in The debug area with no joy even after turning on debug in settings. My attachment limit is 10M, my PHP mem lim = 256M, max post size = 64M.
Any ideas where to look for misconfigured options or something else?

Hi @leeann . If I may suggest, clear your device's cookies (your phone and your tablet - They have hard caches, so you have to delete cookies so you see The changes.
Clearing cache is in 3 domain areas:
1) Clearing or debugging (on your server - Webhosting - while you are logged in to your wpForo Admin
2) When you press Control F5 twice, you are getting The latest version of The changes you may have made fresh from your Website
3) But meanwhile cookies are adding up on either your laptop or your mobile phone or your tablet. Each site we visit leaves cookies behind in "temporary internet files" so that next time we visit those same sites, we won't have to wait too long (average load time).
Best to also view your site, while testing, from an incognito window, or another browser too. 🙂
Hope this helps. Good luck and God bless you!
🙂

1. You didn't answer my question about The RSS. That was The most important.
I'm sorry but There is not way to disable RSS. We'll add an option in future releases.
2. Can users with The RSS address read new topics in user restricted forums that They do not have access to The usual way?
Non-permitted users and guests can not see The private topics and posts
2. It's not my server I tried to upload on, it's yours. My server and wpForo work excellent.
Our server disk space was full last days. That was The issue. Even at The moment we do some work on server and it may be full time to time within next 1-2 days. |
