bbpress looks great on our new site, great work getting us an integrated forum. But major problem is what others have described here: the login to our site is what gets displayed.

I notice that this thread hasn't had a posting for about a year, so I'm just wondering if there are any answers in new versions.

I'm a bit out of my depth with some of the technicalities because this was set up for us, but is there an easy fix?

Thanks

Anyone know this one:
WordPress Multisite, Buddypress properly installed. Installing BBpress, all goes well. After changing default user roles in the backoffice of BBpress, I can't log in with the keymaster account. I've looked in the database, there's only one user with ID 1 in bb_users. When I look in bb_usermeta the user with ID 1 has the meta value of a:1:{s:9:"keymaster";b:1;}

I can log in with previously created users, but when I try the keymaster it keeps on saying "User does not exist".

Anyone?

However, the original URL remains, with the unwanted title.

Is there any way to change the URL once you've done this?

define( 'BB_AUTH_KEY', xxxx
define( 'BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY' xxxx
define( 'BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY', xxxx
define( 'BB_NONCE_KEY', xxxx

keys in the BB_config file - I also changed the $bb_table_prefix =
As instructed to same as WP config file, I changed this back to BB_ but that didn't help...

Any ideas?

I am using

WP 3.0.3 and BB 1.02 (I think, I can't see admin screen to check!)

here's what i did:

in /your-theme-folder/topic.php make these changes

<?php
//get user id
$user_id = get_post_author_id();

//get user role
$role = get_user_type($user_id);

// if user is a key master or Administrator add css class
if ($role == 'Key Master' || $role == 'Administrator') {
$adminclass = "class='adminpost'";
}
//otherwise don't add a class
else {
$adminclass = "";
}
?>

<!--add your css class to the li tag-->
<li id="post-<?php post_id(); ?>" <?php echo $adminclass; ?>>

then style your .adminpost class however you'd like.

hope that helps.

I just restored my keymaster account after an administrator accidentally deleted it.

I managed to do this by editing the bbpcapabilities row in the bbpusermetadata table to read a:1:{s:9:"keymaster";b:1;}

But something like this shouldn't be possible in the first place. Keymaster is the highest role and it should be impossible for an administrator to change anything to a keymaster's account. Just like a moderator can't change an administrator's account.

Any ideas anyone?

You've to browse to your-forum-name/bb-admin/

So I want to restrict Adminstrator-s to edit KeyMaster account.

I've checked the database and wp_roles_map in bbPress db is:

array (
'administrator' => 'keymaster',
'editor' => 'moderator',
'author' => 'member',
'contributor' => 'member',
'subscriber' => 'member',
)
In WP database (table wp_usermeta) wp_capabilities for my user:

array (
'administrator' => '1',
)

There is also wp_2_capabilities field which contains same serialized array.

wp_usermeta:

1 wp_capabilities = a:1:{s:13:"administrator";b:1;}
1 wp_bb_capabilities = a:1:{s:9:"keymaster";b:1;}

logout, login.

I then decided to get rid of BP and now I just want to go back to my initial configuration of WP + BB, using the same old DB that still contains BB forum posts.

Everything is working and the user integration still works, but I have the damn "keymaster lost" problem: My admin user can't access the BB Admin in any way.

I've tried all the solutions proposed around here and on the internet, changed my capabilities on the DB to a:1:{s:9:"keymaster";b:1;} etc.. no way.

If I try to access the /bb-admin area it redirects me to the root.. and there's no "admin" link near my profile name.

My tables have different prefix:

$bb_table_prefix = 'wp_bb_';

I just have WP_USERMETA table as the integration is already done..

What's the meta key I have to set?!?

I've tried "wp_capabilities", "wp_bb_capabilities" and "bb_capabilities", but no-way.. no admin access for my user.

I've also tried to create new users and assign the keymaster.. same thing, no admin access.

Maybe Buddypress changed something that I have to reset?

Please help! :)
