I set in wp-config.php and bb-config.php with same constant: AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, LOGGED_IN_KEY, NONCE_KEY and BB_AUTH_KEY, BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY, BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY, BB_NONCE_KEY and I set the 3 value on bbpress setting page, I leave blank field "WordPress "secure auth" cookie salt" beacause I don't have this field on wordpress. I installed bbpress integration plug in on wordpress and set the url of forum and I write in wp-config file this string: define( 'COOKIEPATH', '/' ); cralor on "Here's how to install Avatar Upload plugin" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/avatar-upload-how-to-install#post-19650 Sun, 05 Oct 2008 21:24:15 +0000 cralor 19650@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Here is how to correctly install Avatar Upload. The "Additional Info" is not too detailed. Here is the instructions on how to get the plugin (currently) on your bbPress site: 1. Download and upload the plugin to your bbPlugins directory. 2. Activate the plugin in the bbPress Admin section. 3. Follow the file movement instructions: In the "additional-files" folder (inside this Avatar Upload plugin directory) there is several files. These need to be moved elsewhere. <ul> <li> Move the entire "avatars/" folder to your bbPress root directory. (Including the "default.png" inside.) </li> <li> Move the "avatar-upload.php" to the bbPress root directory. </li> <li> Move the "avatar.php" (inside the "my-templates" folder) to your template(s) (theme(s)). Example: Move "my-templates/avatar.php" to "forums/bb-templates/kakumei/" (So it is like "forums/bb-templates/kakumei/avatar.php".) </li> </ul> I hope this helps someone :D wmnasef on "phpbb3 -> bbpress converter" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/phpbb3-gt-bbpress-converter-beta-release#post-21404 Tue, 09 Dec 2008 21:23:46 +0000 wmnasef 21404@http://bbpress.org/forums/ hi ! am working on moving my site from phpbb3 to bbpress, of course there is no converters out there for that purpose, so i decided to write my own. am still testing it and trying to improve the code a little bit. right now it can convert the following : 1- forums 2- topics, completely with topic types and status.. announcements and glopal announcements are stickied to front page. 3- posts, all bbcode is converted into html, smiles are changed into img tags, so you might want to install <a href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/allow-images/">allow images plugin</a>. 4- users, including permissions .. notice that bbpress doesn't support per forum permissions as phpbb3, so it only convert users as following : founder -> key master inactive -> inactive banned -> blocked moderators and admins are converted into normal users, so you have to assign them again because phpbb3 doesn't use md5 hashing anymore, the script copies passwords as it is. to solve that problem i modified the <a href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/md5-insecurity-for-bbpress/">md5 insecurity for bbpress plugin</a> to first check the passwords the phpbb3 way, if it matches, it will rehash it using bbpress functions. the script converts all the table rows at once, so it's very heavy and consumes too much cpu depending on your forum size, i strongly suggest that you do the conversion on your own machine, not on a shared hosting account. you might also want to increase the php max execution time on your machine before starting the script cause it takes lots of time converting posts. here is the steps for converting your phpbb3 board : 1- make a backup from your database and files. 2- install bbpress anywhere, just use the same database of phpbb3. this is important cause the script assumes that all tables are in the same database. 3- download the script from <a href="http://members.lycos.co.uk/wmnkhayal/files/phpbb3tobbpress%20converter.tar.gz">here</a>. extract it, and you'll get 2 files. 4- copy the file phpbb3tobbpress.php to phpbb3 directory. 5- copy the file _phpbb3_pass.php to bb-plugins directory. 6- go to <a href="http://path-to-phpbb3/phpbb3tobbpress.php" rel="nofollow">http://path-to-phpbb3/phpbb3tobbpress.php</a> and start converting your board. 7- voila .. all your data is converted to bbpress tables, go to your bbpress installation and login. don't forget to visit admin->manage->recount to make sure your converted board is updated. i can't stress enough on how consuming is the process of converting posts, my board has 25,000 posts, and it takes nearly 15 minutes to convert them on my local machine, so again : i don't recommend using this converter on shared hosting. ciao ! jaim3 on "A phpBB to bbPress database converter" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/a-phpbb-to-bbpress-database-converter#post-2126 Fri, 08 Dec 2006 22:24:49 +0000 jaim3 2126@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Hi! I switched my site's phpBB forum to bbPress, and I've released the script I used for this purpose under the terms of the GPL. It's largely based on the <a href="http://brunotorres.net/unsorted/phpbb2bbpress.phps">excellent starting point</a> from Bruno Torres, to which I added some new features — like bbCode conversion with clean XHTML 1.1 compliant output, smily to text transcription, and the ability to import topics marked as closed, sticky and announcements as such. I made also some little bugfixing, and the resulting script was able to cleanly import almost everything valuable from my old phpBB database.

My host installed a brand spanking new quad xeon Linux server to take care of WP customers such as myself. As a result after getting everything moved over I decided to retry the bb-attachment plugin as this is one feature my members really want. The good noews is that the upload now works great - the files go where they are suppose to <a href="http://screencast.com/t/OWRkYzFiM" rel="nofollow">http://screencast.com/t/OWRkYzFiM</a> and they get entered into the database correctly <a href="http://screencast.com/t/MzQzMTI0OG" rel="nofollow">http://screencast.com/t/MzQzMTI0OG</a> The problems start now on the display and download. TXT files are no problem as they download just fine. PDF files display the icon correctly but when downloaded the files are corrupted Images have two problems. 1. they don't display as they are suppose to within the post. 2. as with the PDFs the images are also corrupted when downloaded. <a href="http://screencast.com/t/MzViYWQyYzI" rel="nofollow">http://screencast.com/t/MzViYWQyYzI</a> Any suggestions of things to try would be greatly appreciated Oh and the forums URL is <a href="http://www.winextra.com/forums/" rel="nofollow">http://www.winextra.com/forums/</a> and you can catch me in the #bbPress IRC channel most times Thanks in advance James Blacker on "Help with Basic Command to Add New Profile Fields" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/help-with-basic-command-to-add-new-profile-fields#post-65441 Sun, 28 Feb 2010 02:29:02 +0000 James Blacker 65441@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Hi, I've just been following this instruction - <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/adding-custom-profile-fields" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/adding-custom-profile-fields</a> (and as per <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/add-new-fields-to-user-profile#post-14767)" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/add-new-fields-to-user-profile#post-14767)</a> - to create a plugin of my own to add a couple of extra fields for my post/edit post, as per ardentfrost's instructions. I'm not overly familiar with php so wonder if anyone can see what is wrong with my code. The plugin I created for myself, which I've uploaded to /forums/my-plugins/jbs_own_plugin.php is as follows:- <?php /* Plugin Name: jbs_own_plugin (etc....) */ add_filter( 'get_profile_info_keys', array('user_email' => array(1, __('Email')), 'user_url' => array(0, __('Website')), 'from' => array(0, __('Location')), 'occ' => array(0, __('Occupation')), 'interest' => array(0, __('Interests')), 'extra' => array(0, __('Extra'))) ?> And when I try to activate it in bbPress plugins I get; Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';' in /var/www/vhosts/wholelifewholeworld.com/httpdocs/forums/my-plugins/jbs_own_plugin.php on line 13 I've tried it with one less ), and with ; after, and a couple of other combos, but can anyone see what I'm doing wrong please? Just want to add a few extra fields that people can fill in from Edit profile and have displayed on the Profile page. Also, I found out I don't actually HAVE a functions.php page in bb-includes at all, so that is slightly worrying me (though everything else is working okay). Thanks, James paulhawke on "Import data from system 'XYZ' (phpBB 2, 3 / SMF / etc)" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/import-data-from-system-xyz#post-64820 Thu, 18 Feb 2010 20:06:22 +0000 paulhawke 64820@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Where are we now? Aside from the questions surrounding integration with Wordpress, another of our big questions is "how do I import from _____" (insert a different forum product of your choosing) Right now the approach is ad-hoc at best: We are handing a PHP script around hand-to-hand that is able to convert a phpBB v2.0.x forum over to bbPress v. 0.9, and if you want to convert a different forum (say, SMF) the accepted wisdom is to install phpBB, convert to that, then convert to bbPress 0.9 and then upgrade. The official <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Coding_Standards">coding standards for Wordpress</a> state: <blockquote>Avoid touching the database directly. If there is a defined function that can get the data you need, use it. Database abstraction (using functions instead of queries) helps keep your code forward-compatible and, in cases where results are cached in memory, it can be many times faster. </blockquote> As it stands bbPress imports clearly violate that principle by using the script we are passing around. Solving the problem Importing data clearly is an example where a strategy pattern solves things in an elegant fashion. <blockquote>The strategy pattern (also known as the policy pattern) is a particular software design pattern, whereby algorithms can be selected at runtime. The strategy pattern is useful for situations where it is necessary to dynamically swap the algorithms used in an application. The strategy pattern is intended to provide a means to define a family of algorithms, encapsulate each one as an object, and make them interchangeable. The strategy pattern lets the algorithms vary independently from clients that use them. </blockquote> More concretely, this means creating a bbPress Import plugin which provides an overall multi-step process, and delegates to an external sub-plugin to retrieve the external datasource specific steps. I would argue that this ought to be a plugin (and remain a plugin rather than being pulled into the core of bbPress) because once you've imported from a given external forum, you can deactivate and uninstall the "import" code as its no longer required. Roadmap <ol> <li>We need to create a basic import plugin. -- This I have done, it's experimental and I'd like some more eyes on the code before calling it "done"</li> <li>We need to create import strategies for external forums, starting with phpBB2 -- This I have done, by extracting SQL from the script we all pass hand-to-hand. Again, it needs more eyes on the code as a QA step.</li> <li>We need to create import strategies for other external forums, specifically SMF and phpBB3 -- this is where the strategy pattern comes into its own - each can be developed independently and combined later. Its also a great place for community input. </li> </ol> Looking further out The import plugin relies on calling the internal <code>bb_new_post</code>, <code>bb_new_topic</code>, <code>bb_new_forum</code> and to a certain degree the <code>bb_new_user</code> methods. As we move toward bbPress being a plugin to Wordpress, these will become the only way to import data, as the script we pass around will become evermore obsolete. Secondly, Wordpress itself has an import framework. I suspect that any "import plugin" we write now will become somewhat obsolete in that timeframe. That said, if we do things right, the import strategies we create might migrate over. What I dont know is the timeframe. Is the bbPress-as-a-plugin-to-Wordpress change close enough on the horizon that we should simply target the Wordpress import framework directly? Thoughts / comments?

I have since moved to the notification1.3 where it will only notify if it is in the favorites of that user.. but now they wont get notified if someone posts a new topic.. I know it is getting kinda granular but is there a "New Topic" plugin that will only email you when a new Topic is made only and NOT every additional post in that topic from there on. Because that is what notification_all did and it was just too much. I want users notified of new topic then let them choose if they want to be updated on that topic. jayrob49 on "Increasing File upload size with bb-attachment" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/increasing-file-upload-size-with-bb-attachment#post-65939 Sat, 13 Mar 2010 06:15:59 +0000 jayrob49 65939@http://bbpress.org/forums/ I added the bb-attachment plugin and it works fine, but is there a way to increase the file upload size above 500 kb I tried to edit the php file by changing the values but no luck, $bb_attachments['max']['size']['default']=100*1024; $bb_attachments['max']['size']['jpg'] =150*1024; $bb_attachments['max']['size']['png']=150*1024; $bb_attachments['max']['size']['moderate']=200*1024; $bb_attachments['max']['size']['administrate']=500*1024; frhong on "Email masked" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/email-masked#post-1634 Sun, 26 Nov 2006 01:55:47 +0000 frhong 1634@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Hi, I'm just wondering is there any plugin that can protect user's email address?

My users do not have either of those things, so I wrote an avatar upload plugin. Besides offering avatar hosting, it also allows you more control over the type and content of avatars than simply providing a link to an offsite image.

It will not work as a plugin in bbPress. Wordpress and bbPress must be integrated. bbSync will integrate WordPress and bbPress pretty thoroughly. Any posts made on the blog will create a new topic on the forums (this supports slugs and anything else that will come). Any replies made to the topic in the forums can be shown under the WP post with <?php felbbreplies(); ?>, and it will show people's avatars if you use Louisedade's avatar upload plugin. You can migrate the old synchronisation from bbPress Post and delete the unnecessary tables (this plugin keeps its data in topicmeta, with the key <code>wp_posts</code>). Hoping to add stuff later, either when I want it myself or when other people want it. I want feedback if you have it! I eat my own dog food and I'm finding it delicious. Will upload as official plugin when I get access. bbPress Post and this plugin should not be running at the same time, otherwise you'll get duplicate topics when you blog. If you get some error about a <code>call to member function of a non-object</code>, there's a good chance adding this in the middle of your bbPress' config.php file will help: <code>global $bbdb;</code> This plugin does need configuring to do anything useful.

I could make the plugin only work for Admins, but that is just not as much fun :) David- on "I Want To Mail All Users A Password Reset Link" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/i-want-to-mail-all-users-a-password-reset-link#post-64807 Thu, 18 Feb 2010 14:56:45 +0000 David- 64807@http://bbpress.org/forums/ I would like to mail all my registered users a password reset link. How do I go about this? Or if there's currently a plugin for this, kindly point me in the right direction.

I already set it up to keep the bbPress database and the site database synchronised, so that registering as a site user will simulate registration in bbPress. The last step is to make bbPress recognize my site's cookies, which I'm trying to do through a plugin. I've been trying to figure out which functions I need to rewrite in order to make this possible. I know there are a handful of functions in functions.bb-pluggable.php which I can replace in my plugin, but I'm not clear on how they connect with everything else in bbPress. Basically, I have a function that determines whether a user is currently logged in, and what that user's ID number is. I just can't figure out where to put the function. (The site uses its own login form, so I don't need to worry about bbPress' login process.) I found a few old posts where people were trying to do similar things, but no clear answers. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks! Dan
