So they blindly insert the blank address into emails which causes the emailer to either fail or bounce the message. </p> <p>A few of my plugins were affected, I just found another tonight, and there are several third-party ones still unpatched.</p> <p>You can work around this problem by putting this into your <code>bb-config.php</code> (anywhere on a new line)</p> <p><code>$bb-&gt;admin_email = &#39;email@your-forum.com&#39;;</code></p> <p>where <code><a href="mailto:email@your-forum.com">email@your-forum.com</a></code> is the same email address you use inside bbPress on <code>bb-admin/options-general.php</code></p> <p>This won't hurt anything, causes no extra load of any kind and simply allows older plugins to work without additional edits until the authors get a chance to upgrade them. </p> <p>(Just remember you "hard coded" this address if you ever change the main one for any reason. You can delete it after 1.0 is out and all plugins have upgraded. In fact the old email address will become unused after all the plugin upgrade anyway so this can't hurt anything in practice.) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-09-plugin-compatibility-list#post-15725 Wed, 23 Apr 2008 20:32:41 +0000 thomasklaiber 15725@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>'Admin Add Users' works now.</p> <p>There seems to be a problem with 'Post Notification' which will be fixed within the next days. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-09-plugin-compatibility-list#post-15265 Fri, 11 Apr 2008 15:59:32 +0000 marshosh 15265@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Thank you , what about all plugins ? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-09-plugin-compatibility-list#post-15068 Sat, 05 Apr 2008 19:41:26 +0000 so1o 15068@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p><a href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/enhanced-tag-heat-map/" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/enhanced-tag-heat-map/</a></p> <p>enhanced tag heat map works with 0.9 </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-09-plugin-compatibility-list#post-15042 Fri, 04 Apr 2008 23:15:14 +0000 retrospec 15042@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hello,<br /> 'Admin Add Users' plugin (I'm using latest 1.2) doesn't work. When you are in the administrator window and edit a profile created using the plugin, it takes you to your keymaster account.</p> <p>The problem is the new version of bbpress now populates 'nicename' field whereas the old one doesn't, and so this plugin doesn't either. Adding a 'nicename' fixes the problem.</p> <p>However, while you can login using the new user I don't understand how because it uses md5 for the password, and I thought 0.9 now uses a different encryption system?</p> <p>I imagine there are some other serious problems that you should really disable this plugin until it is fixed.</p> <p>One is that it uses direct sql to add the user, which may not be compatible with 0.9...<br /> Hope this helps. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-09-plugin-compatibility-list#post-14469 Fri, 14 Mar 2008 21:51:24 +0000 _ck_ 14469@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>As far as third party plugins, I can see that<br /> Avatar Upload<br /> Topic Views<br /> still work properly under bbPress 0.9 </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-09-plugin-compatibility-list#post-14468 Fri, 14 Mar 2008 21:45:49 +0000 _ck_ 14468@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p><a href="http://bbpress.org/plugins/tags/_ck_">All of my plugins</a> are 0.9 compatible - if not, I will make them so, just give me a bug report.

I wouldn't normally test it with the support forum plugin so I wasn't aware of that behavior.</p> <p>Not sure why My Views is trashing the support forum views but I'll investigate further sometime soon - it might have to do with the way My Views lets you re-order the views, though it should not delete any.</p> <p>(you're using v0.08 correct?) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/support-forum-038-my-views-compatibility#post-11134 Thu, 27 Sep 2007 09:30:39 +0000 neyoung 11134@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I have both the My Views and Support Forums plugins installed. They work well together except for 1 thing. Both plugins add a new filter to bb_views.</p> <p>If both plugins are running the new views from My Views are the only ones to show up. The Support Forums views are not listed. After poking through the code I was able to fix it by making sure that the Support Forums bb_views filter was added AFTER the My Views bb_views filter. To do so edit support-forum.php .</p> <p><strong>Replace</strong> line 432<br /> --------------------------------<br /> <code>add_filter(&#39;bb_views&#39;, array(&#38;$this, &#39;addViews&#39;));</code><br /> --------------------------------</p> <p><strong>With</strong><br /> --------------------------------<br /> <code>add_filter(&#39;bb_views&#39;, array(&#38;$this, &#39;addViews&#39;), 200);</code><br /> --------------------------------</p> <p>You should now be able to see the views from both plugins.</p> <p>I'm no expert, but it seems like when My Views is adding my_views_init to the bb_views filter its overwriting whatever Support Forums has already added to the filter. Just a guess. I'm sure ck, so1o, mdawaffe, or SamBauers will know exactly what is going on.</p> <p>Enjoy! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/few-questions#post-9085 Thu, 19 Jul 2007 09:23:44 +0000 Ziyphr 9085@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Thanks for your help everyone, I think I'll be giving bbPress a try. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/few-questions#post-9075 Wed, 18 Jul 2007 23:19:53 +0000 Trent 9075@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>1) I would 't worry about the plugins to help out if you need it (small percentage) as they are intended to get it fixed which will eventually make it into the core. Those plugins would only require minor changes if something was changed in bbPress, but I doubt it would happen often.</p> <p>2) I had great luck with the phpbb converter myself and have stated in one of the threads which one I used. I would just look around a bit before choosing one.</p> <p>3) Since the <a href="http://bbpress.org/documentation/upgrading/">upgrade process</a> is so easy, there is no need to wait! As well, the changes scheduled for the next series of releases are small changes and no worth waiting for!</p> <p>4) So1o just released a new version of the private forums plugin that is exceptional and recently addressed the problems with the RSS feed being private. It is found in the 'extend' tab of this forum in the plugin browser!</p> <p>5) fel64 is absolutely right. mdawaffe is the head dev and he is working on wordpress code at the same time. They will always be compatible as they are working toward more shared function (at least not conflicting). Issues will be worked out as we go, but shouldn't be a problem.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Trent </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/few-questions#post-9072 Wed, 18 Jul 2007 21:15:19 +0000 fel64 9072@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>1. Some dudes do, yeah. But it seems to be a minority; who can tell? Maybe bbPress <em>does</em> just have a few new users a week :P<br /> 2. Haven't seen one. Believe there was some trouble with older converters somebody dug up.<br /> 3. New version is in development, and I expect there will be new versions in development for a while. Don't let that stop you getting it now. There's no release planned for the next week as far as I know.<br /> 4. It's not in the core and there's no indication that's what's being worked on right now. It'd have to be a plugin. Last I read they fixed their RSS problems? It will say in the plugin topic, anyway.<br /> 5. It's one of the wp devs that's developing bb at the moment. They all work for the same small company. I don't think one release would ever break the other. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/few-questions#post-9059 Wed, 18 Jul 2007 14:21:50 +0000 schmitt 9059@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I just set up a bbpress forum and use the WP user database.

There is another plugin that blocks all access to the site.

What's the latest on:</p> <p>1) WP integration - last I heard you had to fiddle with cookie settings and some usernames wouldn't work on the forum login. I'd be wary of using plugins as this could cause problems upgrading in future.</p> <p>2) phpBB(2) conversion - is there any script that will convert everything perfectly?</p> <p>3) future plans - is there a new version in development or is everything on hold for now? (i.e. should I just go and install the current version or wait another month or two)</p> <p>4) private forums - an essential feature for me is to have a staff board that is 100% secure. Again I didn't really want to rely on a plugin for this and last time I think I read it wasn't secure because of an RSS problem.</p> <p>5) lastly - is bbPress compatibility high on the list when new versions of WordPress are released? (i.e. could a new WP break by forum?)</p> <p>Cheers. </p>
