Can anyone point me to a good resource in this regard? haagendazs1 on "Rewriting?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/rewriting#post-16126 Sun, 11 May 2008 02:54:49 +0000 haagendazs1 16126@http://bbpress.org/forums/ mrhoratio, Thanks a lot for the input. Sucks that it isn't working out for a lot of people. I guess I'll just live with it (for now?), and patiently wait for something out there. :) Thanks again mrhoratio on "Rewriting?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/rewriting#post-16117 Sat, 10 May 2008 08:46:33 +0000 mrhoratio 16117@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Hey I'm been trying to get this to work also. And have posted to some other similar threads here, but there haven't gotta a solution working. Here's what I've learned. 1. From what I gathered, the problem is with how bbPress redirects its pages. Even if you have the proper mod_rewrite rules, bbPress will automatically redirect the rewritten URL to the full URL that it thinks the page is supposed to have. This basically makes custom mod_rewrite useless. 2. You can prevent bbPress from redirecting by fooling bbPress into thinking it should have a different URL than its supposed to. You can do this by modifying the get_forum_link, get_topic_link, get_user_profile link, etc. functions in the template-functions.php file. The idea is to use pattern matching to strip out the base directory from the URL. <pre><code>function get_user_profile_link( $id = 0, $page = 1 ) { $user = bb_get_user( bb_get_user_id( $id ) ); $rewrite = bb_get_option( 'mod_rewrite' ); if ( $rewrite ) { if ( $rewrite === 'slugs' ) { $column = 'user_nicename'; } else { $column = 'ID'; } $r = bb_get_option('uri') . "profile/" . $user->$column . ( 1 < $page ? "/page/$page" : '' ); } else { $r = bb_get_option('uri') . "profile.php?id=$user->ID" . ( 1 < $page ? "&page=$page" : '' ); } $r = str_replace('forums/profile/' . $user->$column , "profile/" . $user->$column, $r); return apply_filters( 'get_user_profile_link', $r, $user->ID ); }</code></pre> 3. If you strip out the base directory from the URL however, it makes bbPress think you're no longer logged in, and you can't log in. I still can't figure out a fix yet. Seems like a lot of people are having issues with mod_rewrite in bbPress. Hopefully the next update will resolve some of these issues. haagendazs1 on "Rewriting?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/rewriting#post-16115 Sat, 10 May 2008 08:27:08 +0000 haagendazs1 16115@http://bbpress.org/forums/ I've been trying to get this but I don't really know what would allow this as I'm relatively new to websites, and I don't know if this is even possible. Does anyone who knows what I'm talking about above know if this is possible for bbPress right now? haagendazs1 on "Rewriting?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/rewriting#post-15526 Fri, 18 Apr 2008 22:52:54 +0000 haagendazs1 15526@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Just wondering if anyone has the solution... haagendazs1 on "Rewriting?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/rewriting#post-15389 Tue, 15 Apr 2008 05:07:24 +0000 haagendazs1 15389@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Hi chrishajer, example.com has stuff like htaccess, index.php, php.ini, robots.txt example.com/folder/ is the WP install that's integrated with the forum and example.com/folder/bbpress/ is the aforementioned forum :) chrishajer on "Rewriting?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/rewriting#post-15378 Tue, 15 Apr 2008 03:48:11 +0000 chrishajer 15378@http://bbpress.org/forums/ What is in <a href="http://example.com/" rel="nofollow">http://example.com/</a> ?

So I'll try again: Right now, physically, the folders are arranged like so: root.com/folder/bbpress The address: root.com/folder/bbpress also works and goes to the forum just fine. However, I want to keep the physical folders arranged that way, and make the address: root.com/bbpress Wordpress itself has the exact same option under "Settings" by changing "Blog address (URL)" to whatever. Any help would be appreciated! haagendazs1 on "Rewriting?" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/rewriting#post-15365 Mon, 14 Apr 2008 14:12:04 +0000 haagendazs1 15365@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Hi everyone, Currently my forum is located in something like: example.com/dir/forum/ But I want to rewrite it to be like this: example.com/forum/ Since Wordpress can do that, I was hoping bbPress can too, but I'm not sure how. Is there some setting I can change? Also secondary to that is that if there is no setting for such an option, can I just move the "forum" directory out of "dir" and into the root, and change the "bbPress address" to force it to physically be like "example.com/forum/" or would that screw things up?

I am not sure if anyone has ever tackled it before, but maybe someone else has an idea how to get this accomplished because I am sure it can be accomplished.
