Hello,
I just installed the latest wpForo v1.7.7 on Debian. By checking whether everything is okay, I get a
wpForo phrases are missing!
error when I check into Tools->Debug.
Screenshot attached.
This is a brand new installation of wpForo, so there is no way that something happened to the phrases files.
I tried installing it from scratch multiple times but I keep getting this error.
Can you help?
Thanks
Hi @fawp,
Please navigate to the Table tab in the same admin page, click on the [Solve Database Problems] button, then deactivate wpForo and activate it again.
If the problem still exists, navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard admin page and click the [Rebuild Phrases] button.
Hi @robert
There was no [Solve Database Problems] button, and that page said "No problem found in database" (screenshot attached).
However rebuilding the phrases as you suggested worked 😀 .
Any idea as to what the original cause might have been?
Many thanks, I appreciate the support.
Thank you for letting me know!
I have no idea. Somehow your wp_wpforo_phrases table was empty. Now it's rebuilt and all is ok. I'm closing the topic.
