I am having difficulty with the forums. My client upgraded to BP 1.5, and since then, all the forum posts are gone. Well, I say they are gone, but the original ones that were there when the site first went live (from dev site) are there, but nothing since then.

I have noticed in the SQL database, there are 3 tables… bb_forums, bp_groups and bp_topics. The bp_groups and bb_forums seem to have the same table entires, but I have not gone line by line to see which has the most current data. Did the upgrade move things?

I would appreciate some help here.
Thanks
Ed

Should be seven bbPress tables in DB https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/3/#bp-forums-db

Certainly, all the other bbPress tables should not have been deleted. We deleted zero tables from 1.2.10 to 1.5, and we wouldn’t ever add or remove any of the bb_ tables.

I also lost my Forums and Groups when I upgraded to BP 1.5 with WP 3.2.1. In fact, I’m not able to upload any images either so I went back to the older version of BP and everything came back. What’s the deal-eo?

@Debra if you went back to the older version and it works, you may want to report it here (same as your login on this site)
