    Could anybody give me more detailed instructions for getting thread replies in the comments, please?

    Replies in the thread can be shown where the comments are (quite automagically). Use <?php bbrepliestext(); ?> to just link to the thread; it accepts the link text as an argument and %no% and %replies% will be replaced with the numebr of posts and the right pluralicised form of the word reply.

    Where to put exactly the php code? Does it must to replace some other code? Do I have to put something between ( ) ?

    Sorry but I'm not an advanced user on coding. Thanks!

    I 'd just be happy with a link to the forum thread in every wp entry.

    I'm having a lot of integration and syncing issues. I tried doing this a month ago but got frustrated.

    I can't get my WP posts to sync to BB, nor are the same logins working on both systems. I know those may be two different issues. Can I get some help?

    I tried reinstalling bbpress and sync, and nothing improved: http://www.adbeef.com/forum/

    oops, my bad.

    i installed it as a bbpress plugin instead of a wordpress plugin. working fine now

    sorry!

    Hey all!

    Great plugin, awesome thread. Felix, you da man.

    Quick question - is bbSync supposed to completely get rid of comments on the WP side? If I have a post that has been submitted via bbSync to the bbPress side, the comments disappear from the WP page, and only show up on the BB side.

    I would love people to post on the WP side and have the comments be viewable on the WP side, as well as on bbPress. I saw the thread above about integrating the bbPress comments BACK to the WP side, but not worried about that yet.

    Any thoughts? This guy:

    Is having a similar issue. Anyone solve the issue?

    Thanks, Chris! I really appreciate the ping. It worked for ALMOST everything we needed. Bummer. Anyone using anything else?

    Maybe it's accidentally eating the comments? I can't remember.

    Also, hey, look at that - september has almost rolled through and it's still very, very broken.

    Maybe Benzilla can help you? In any case, the basic ideas are pretty obvious in bbsync; just create meta-entries for each sync'd item on both sides, so you can use them in functions to make links and the like. Comments -> posts just uses a standard comments hook and the bb api to create a post. If I were trying to fix this I'd probably go back to basics and work it again from there, using the old (bad) code as a reference only; that could be the approach to take with this.

    Hi I do have a version working(I downgraded bbpress to the last version bbsync worked because I was tired of using a alpha version of bbpress) it's completely new code, but it's very basic on the feature set and a bit hacked together, as I could never get the bbpress functions to work in a wordpress plugin.

    I'm at a public library at the moment so I don't have the code with me but I can work on the code a little bit when I get home.

    Also please note, this was just made for me and I probably have different needs to what you needed, for example I wanted all wordpress posts to make a new topic so there isn't options on a per post basis to post to a forum. Also comments don't replicate between bbpress and wordpress(I was just going to disable commenting and make all users use the topic) but depending on how much time I have tonight I might add this functionality as I don't see the difficulty in it.

    Also F.Y.I. if anyone is interested I do it the úber ghetto way and manually manipulate the database and don't go through any of the wordpress or bbpress functions so use at your own risk, but I haven't run into any problems on my test site.

    > the über ghetto way

    is a perfectly valid, faster way to do it, but just needs maintenance as the bb/wp setups change, to ensure data integrity manually.

    Great plug-in.
    Everything works.
    New posts are added and comments.

    Only issue is users getting stuck on wp-comments-post.php
    No errors just a blank screen. Post IS added.

    I get 'http://www.myurl.com/wp-comments-post.php#comment-8'

    No other plugins active.
    Please advice. Thank You

    Does your sync work with WP 2.7 and BBpress 0.9.0.4? Doesn't seem to when I set it up in WP

    • Posted 3 years ago #

    It does not work with WordPress 2.7 AFAIK. bbPress 0.9.0.4 and WordPress 2.7 don't integrate. If you want something similar for WordPress 2.7, you might have a look at bbPress Live:

    So it looks like bbSync is dead, and bbPressLive is dead.

    Is anyone working on a repair or replacement, by any chance?
