I had just posted the sparepencil ajax-fix link in an older thread.</p> <p>I am having permission issues. Have tried creating a new keymaster to no avail. I had the same exact issue with WP 2.3.3 until I used the ajax fixing plugin above. It feels like the same exact problem in every way.</p> <p>The sparepencil plugin had a less eloquent fix originally - I don't remember precisely but you basically just commented out a block of code and replaced it with something short and sweet (something to do with cookie decryption i think).

It sounds EXACTLY like the issue that above plugin fixed in WP. I'm willing to bet bbpress has a similar promlem with AJAX decrypting cookies. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-rights-to-create-forum-as-key-master#post-14679 Tue, 25 Mar 2008 16:45:07 +0000 nolageek 14679@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I agree. I know bbpress isn't 'designed' to be a drop in integration with wordpress, it seems obvious to me that that should be a major focus. There's simply too many issues with integration for two projects that share so many concepts, etc... Hopefully 2.5/0.9 will solve a lot of that. It shouldn't be too much longer after that that WPMU will graft the 2.5 code. I just can't believe there's threads on here from 2 years ago about problems sharing cookies.. that are still active. heh. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-rights-to-create-forum-as-key-master#post-14672 Tue, 25 Mar 2008 05:43:05 +0000 chrishajer 14672@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>nolageek, I'm with you on the integration. Seems people are usually looking for three things from bbPress:</p> <p>1. User integration with WordPress out of the box<br /> (registration/login)</p> <p>2. Theme integration with WordPress out of the box<br /> (make the forum look like the blog)</p> <p>3. Working slugs or permalinks out of the box<br /> (why is it so easy with WordPress and so hard with bbPress?)</p> <p>(Regarding MU, I have no idea. I'm talking mostly about WordPress.)</p> <p>I would say those are the most common requests in these forums, ones that come up over and over.</p> <p>Sorry for hijacking your thread. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-rights-to-create-forum-as-key-master#post-14669 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 23:57:57 +0000 _ck_ 14669@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Yeah that looks okay. Someone more knowledgeable than me is going to have to trace this. I get as far back as the ajax xml generation code but that's useless without knowing what's triggering the error. Maybe ask Sam or MDA on the irc or perhaps turn to other WPMU folks to see if they encounter this? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-rights-to-create-forum-as-key-master#post-14667 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 23:11:05 +0000 nolageek 14667@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>From user_id 1</p> <p><code>bb_capabilities a:2:{s:9:&quot;keymaster&quot;;b:1;s:8:&quot;throttle&quot;;b:1;}</code> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-rights-to-create-forum-as-key-master#post-14666 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 22:40:59 +0000 _ck_ 14666@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>WPMU users really are kinda out there on their own right now, sorry. Using 0.9 is probably not an option anyway for you since WPMU uses different style cookies unless there is a plugin to solve that (and there might be, I am not sure).</p> <p>I assume you looked at the user meta directly to ensure the roles are set correctly for bbpress? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-rights-to-create-forum-as-key-master#post-14665 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 22:36:14 +0000 nolageek 14665@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>does bbpress use it's own Ajax decryption? I'm OK with following/mucking up php and html, but all that Ajax stuff is beyond me.</p> <p>This could be related to the albatross that is 'integration' that seems to haunt me from host to host. Now, I WORK at the webhost and have access to root and WHM and everything, but still... I've never been able to get WPMU and bbpress to play nice. I've followed every set of instructions I can find on it, too. Nothing seems to work.

If it's not being sent or interpreted correctly, I don't think bbpress will let you do admin actions, even if you are admin.</p> <p>(Oh and the newest Suhosin has the option to hide itself in phpinfo) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-rights-to-create-forum-as-key-master#post-14662 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 21:23:56 +0000 nolageek 14662@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I got paros running, could login to a bunch of sites (gmail, yahoo, here) but kept asking me for my bbpress' login over and over.</p> <p>What exactly do you want to see from the session in paros?</p> <pre><code>GET <a href="http://geekdc.com/forum/bb-admin" rel="nofollow">http://geekdc.com/forum/bb-admin</a> HTTP/1.1 Host: geekdc.com User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080201 Firefox/2.0.0.12 Paros/3.2.13 Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5 Accept-Language: en-us Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 300 Proxy-Connection: keep-alive Referer: <a href="http://geekdc.com/forum/bb-admin/" rel="nofollow">http://geekdc.com/forum/bb-admin/</a> Cookie: __utma=164913321.806591864.1206118840.1206381545.1206389257.5; __utmz=164913321.1206118840.1.1.utmcsr=(direct)|utmccn=(direct)|utmcmd=(none); ?wordpressuser?=admin; ?wordpresspass?=33b7fd3d41082aeb1764e84c5e297d8f; ‘wordpressuser’=admin; ‘wordpresspass’=33b7fd3d41082aeb1764e84c5e297d8f Content-length: 0</code></pre> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-rights-to-create-forum-as-key-master#post-14661 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 20:42:07 +0000 chrishajer 14661@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Interesting.</p> <p>I wish you could get paros (or similar) running and see what's happening behind the scenes. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-rights-to-create-forum-as-key-master#post-14659 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 19:15:16 +0000 nolageek 14659@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hrrm. nope, different kind of errors:</p> <p><a href="http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d27/nolageek/ajax_add_forum.png" rel="nofollow">http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d27/nolageek/ajax_add_forum.png</a></p> <p><a href="http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d27/nolageek/ajax_delete_topic.png" rel="nofollow">http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d27/nolageek/ajax_delete_topic.png</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/no-rights-to-create-forum-as-key-master#post-14657 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 18:47:28 +0000 chrishajer 14657@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I just got an email from someone with a WordPress 2.2.2 site, and all of the sudden she lost the ability to create a new post (in the last month anyway).
