The revision is r2535 but the text in the admin panel comes from bb-includes/functions.bb-meta.php around line 299. That text needs to be changed manually every time you check in code. Looks like they forgot to change it the past couple times.

I just updated it, so if you check out a new copy, that will be the only file changed, you will have revision 2536, and it will work exactly as 2535 did when it said 2530 in the admin.

Ashfame — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 14:35:39 +0000

nope, you are at 2535 only.
its just showing whats inside the file and not what its exactly is.

Trust SVN here, it doesn't get wrong ;)

i quickly made a crash course on how to use svn (tortoise) to download latest version and it says ir downloaded version 2535 to my pc, tested it locally using wampserver but it says

bbPress 1.1-alpha-2530 in the admin panel

do i need to download each file from :
http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress/trunk/

to get version 2535?

I think that these are no longer published. September 15 bbPress comes as an additional part of WordPress with plugin.

Seems like we finally run out of tickets: candidate release date?

Ashfame on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

Ashfame — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 15:01:30 +0000

Yes we are running the trunk here. After 1.1 don't know if running a trunk version would make sense at all.

Both my installs are live, used, and svn trunk. After the next update I may switch to the stable tag depending on how reliable trunk is going to be in the future. My general feeling is: as long as trunk is used for the bbPress website, it's good enough for me.

Ashfame on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

Ashfame — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 14:20:19 +0000

Yes! _ck_ is right. SVN would be hassle free - http://blog.ashfame.com/tag/bbpress+svn/

I wouldn't be in a rush for the 1.1 final release because it really will likely be quite final unless there is a security issue.

Since the trunk isn't polluted yet with commits from the plugin version, you can just download the trunk instead:

http://trac.bbpress.org/changeset/2518/trunk?old_path=%2F&format=zip

actually I don't think that will include backpress updates, so it's all unnecessarily overly complicated unfortunately

best way to do it is to install SVN as a client on the server which I have instructions somewhere around here...

Is 1.1 coming out soon?

At the moment we still have 4 tickets to close.

I suppose there will be a beta release in late autumn (I hope so), since more testing is definitely needed!

You can enable them from the dashboard first and then you can increase the size of the avatars in your theme by the link I gave you

Marius- on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

Marius- — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 16:36:21 +0000

I never got avatars working in the first place.

Ashfame on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

Ashfame — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 15:57:55 +0000

@Marius
You can do that in your theme too - http://blog.ashfame.com/2009/08/change-gravatar-size-bbpress-theme/

In order to help get 1.1 out of the door (or actually to help get 1.0.3 out the door before the decree came down to not release 1.0.3) a large number of useful and needed Tickets in Trac were bumped to 1.5 ( now, "future release" - the name initself laughable ;-] ).

So I've moved a number (about 1/3) of those tickets back.

Marius- on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

Marius- — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 13:42:57 +0000

Oh :(
I wish all us other users could have it like this.

I view this support forum as sort of the default showcase for what bbpress is.

Gautam on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

Marius, that is a theme's work - not of bbPress.

Marius- on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

Marius- — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 12:39:25 +0000

So will we get nice avatars like this forum has?

chrishajer on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

chrishajer — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 03:06:14 +0000

So what? I put that milestone in there after plucking it from thin air. It is what it is. At the time, it seemed reasonable with the amount of tickets we had open. Then we added more tickets. And we fixed them. I think any ticket created after 1257 was after I changed the milestone to April 30.

As the trac says:

"Due date is only to force the order of milestones and does not reflect any actual release schedule."

hpguru on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

hpguru — Sat, 24 Jul 2010 19:24:30 +0000

Yes, but...

Milestone: 1.0.3

3 months late (04/30/10)

mr_pelle on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

mr_pelle — Sat, 24 Jul 2010 18:04:18 +0000

No tickets left!! Woo hoo!! =D

I was not checking into the forums for few months and I am SO glad to see you back, _ck_. :-)

Ah sorry Chris, I wasn't clear.
What I meant was this:

We want/need people to test a year's worth of code in 1.0.3
Why not download the latest version.
Apply the the patch to that downloded code.
Put in a zip file.
Rename Zip file "bbpress-1.0.3-alpha.zip"
Upload to website
Ask people to download and test.

We know we can't release 1.0.3 into the wild given that it's whole implementation is questioned by the bugs in 1.1; but it'll at least give us a heads up on a year's worth of bugs.

Gautam on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

Gautam — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 12:59:33 +0000

We can add the same code (the one I posted in the patch) in bbPress, but BackPress would be a better place for that. Anyone should contact westi as he can fix it.

chrishajer on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

chrishajer — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 12:30:19 +0000

BackPress is included as an external. I don't have the ability to update the code here. I can just check in code to bbPress. Then, on some sort of cron schedule, the code that runs bbpress.org/forums is updated. It's not nightly, as evidenced by the fact that this site is still running r2441 (actually, I think r2442: I tagged it wrong.) So, maybe it's not automatically done, but the job fails and someone needs to do it manually.

So, I can't update the BackPress code that is running on this site. I could fix my local installation, and you could fix yours, but I can't fix it here.

If you want to see what's included externally, you can download a trunk release from the bottom of a trac page and see that Akismet and BackPress are both missing. When I check out a copy with subversion, those externals are checked out. But I can't check in to either of those projects.

kevinjohngallagher on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

kevinjohngallagher — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 11:36:35 +0000

Actually,

Don't we package and include BackPress with every release?
Why are we reliant on the BackPress team at all, can't we just apply the patches to BackPress as we release them for testing?

If thats teh case, cant we get an alpha for 1.0.3 out the door soon? Maybe ask people to test it and get a few bugs in while waiting on 1.1 development?

kevinjohngallagher on "bbPress 1.1 - Maybe Soon!"

I can't wait until email subscriptions arrive!! This will be awesome.

Indeed it was, 2 years ago when we had it as a working plugin.

Gautam,
Given that we're waiting on BackPress to update, and that the bug in question hasn't had any response/update from any AutoMattic employees in 6 months, and isn't included in the next Backpress release... how crucial is it that this bug is fixed?

More updates

bbPress 1.0.3 milestone now only has 1 ticket left, which depends on this BackPress ticket), while 1.1 milestone has 2 tickets left (both need patches). There’s also another BackPress ticket that needs to be fixed (has patch).

Also, there would be no tag administration in 1.1.

And just for a note, matt also committed a patch about 11 hours back - [2450]
