Unfortunately that didn't work for me. Somehow I'm not even getting the above mentioned errors anymore (even before your suggestion) but AJAX is still not working.

AJAX is broken in Buddypress and BBpress and I have tried deactivating all other plugins.

I'm using BuddyPress, so I added the following to my functions.php file. If you are using regular WordPress I believe you'd need to substitute site_url('wp-load.php') with admin_url('admin-ajax.php'):

function ajaxurl_fix () {
?>
        <script> var ajaxurl = '<?php echo site_url('wp-load.php'); ?>';</script>
<?php
}
add_action( 'get_header', 'ajaxurl_fix');

Edit: I changed the action hook from init to get_header because I was experiencing problems logging in.

topic.js:39Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'wpList'

I've tried deactivating all plugins besides BBpress, switching to the default theme and re-installing BBpress. The errors still comes up.

wplist.js is being called before topic.js so it must be something in the code...?

I'm running 3.3 and noticed this issue, but not sure when it first popped up.

wp-lists.js:1 -- Uncaught ReferenceError: ajaxurl is not defined
topic.js:39 -- Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'wpList'

I'm using a copy of the TwentTen BBpress theme, but it doesn't work even if I switch back to the default theme. I'm using the BBpress plugin with Buddypress, not standalone.

Now, you get the option to add a new tag. Basically a tag management page.

The problem I am seeing though is that when you try to add a tag to an existing topic, either by hitting enter or clicking the [add tag] button, it does not appear to get added. However, if you refresh the page, the tag will be there.

So, something recently changed and not in a good way. Not sure if it affects members or just moderators.

As I recall it used to a really long time ago, but had the feature taken out or turned off.

That was actually when you yourself add a post and it would get added via AJAX.

If this feature is not currently supported, do you think it can be easily done?

Yup, P2 theme for WordPress also checks for blog/comments updates via AJAX so it should be easy for bbPress too.

Does bbPress update posts automatically using AJAX?

No.

Yes.
It is though a fairly straightforward thing to implement, but personally I'd advise against it. AJAX has been around since IE4 and the MSXML4.0 upgrade, and there's a reason why it's not used as often as it's propents think.

Given how much AJAX posting requires being tied in to a specific HTML markup, and how realistically you'd want to NOT be tied into the horrific Kakumei markup, you'd really just be adding to your own forum(s).

Does bbPress update posts automatically using AJAX?

That is lets say I am on a particular Topic page and someone posts a reply. Does bbPress update the topic page without a refresh?

If this feature is not currently supported, do you think it can be easily done?

I am ready to contribute this feature if it does not exist!

Thank you

For example, while reading a topic over HTTP and clicking "Add this topic to your favorites", the AJAX call fails because admin-ajax.php is accessed over HTTPS. Nothing is added to your favorites.

This issue is occurring at Network Solutions, but I haven't determined yet whether it's server-related or browser-related.

I'm currently making a plugin where I really need to use ajax as there are 2 combo box and when the other combo box is changed it must automatically change content of the 2nd combo box so I really need to use ajax with innerHTML. Can somebody give me a simple example on how to do that? Please. I will really appreciate any help.

I'd appreciate it if someone with more (or better - which won't be hard) could have a quick look at this please, as i can't believe we've a hook for when everything/anything happens on our forums APART from something to the actual forums themselves.

Basically, i've a plugin that does some extra work on categories to make them work more like categories on other forums, but it appears users can update/edit/add and delete categories and forums without any plugins/fucntions/actions being triggered. I'm sure i've missed something, it wouldn't be the first time, as that would be incredibly stupid.

Thanks for the help

So, I plan to use jQuery on the video page to retrieve the comment forum's contents in RSS form, then display them in the existing page beneath the video. That seems like it would be pretty straightforward.

The tricky part is this: is there any way to create an add comment form in the existing page that uses AJAX-type methods to communicate with my bbPress back end? (It would also have to be able to handle logging in.)
