I know WP has an Export feature, BBpress has an export plugin, I don’t know about BuddyPress information.

If no one can answer the export information on BP then I would suggest to have both domain point to the same server/folder. Then change all URLs on the admin page to the new one.

If you backup your SQL data it will still point to the old site.

blackarbor, are you hosting it?

Easy no.

A. On your Hosting Control Panel point the new URL to the same folder as where you have everything now. Then go to the admin settings and change the URL on both WPMU and BBPress. It will log you out and you have to log in. Install plugin broken link checker https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/broken-link-checker/ and have fun changing all the URLs.

there is another option it involves setting up a new SQL and exporting everything and importing… bbpress has a pluging for you to export and import, I never used it so I don’t want to recommend it.

nc_matt:

enable pingbacks on both WPMU & BBpress, that’s what I was missing.

[@gerikg Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

I got the fatal error after deactivating the BP plugin and reactivating it. You have you delete the the BP plugin and themes and/or other files you moved out of the BP folder. (example BBpress-plugin and bphome theme) After all that fresh install.

For Group invitation I know it’s in the bp-groups folder in BP. The file bp-group-notification.php

at the bottom you’ll see:

‘One of your friends %s has invited you to the group: “%s”.

To view your group invites visit: %s

To view the group visit: %s

To view %s\’s profile visit: %s

---

I think you just need to replace the %s with your website or whatever you’re talking about.

Remember to back up that file before editing. I dont’ know PHP so I don’t know what it will do.

“Enable Pingbacks” for BBP & WPMU

[@gerikg Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

I had the same problem. I also refused to use a version that is non stable.

I read everything over and over. Mostly everything point to three major “integration” blogs.

I almost gave up until I was looking at my FTP and noticed the read “installation-readme.txt” in the bp-forums folder in BuddyPress plugin.

This line—-> Also check the “Enable Pingbacks” option just below.

That’s the only thing that wasn’t in the instructions. I enable in both WPMU and BBPress and it worked!
