Missing files in wp_config AUTH_KEY

    • Posted 2 years ago #

    I`m not seeing these files in my word press config file(below), I have installed the integration plugin for WP and gone to configure it. I have deleted my cookies in firefox, I do see them in my BB_press config file. I upgraded my WP to 2.8.6 & have installed the 1.0.2 version of bb-press.

    WordPress bbPress
    AUTH_KEY <=> BB_AUTH_KEY
    SECURE_AUTH_KEY <=> BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY
    LOGGED_IN_KEY <=> BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY

    Also I have seen on the forum I should not use WWW in my urls, why is this & what should the format of the urls be, does this apply to all urls used in WP/BB press

    Thanks

    Those are definitely in the config for 2.8.6 (and since 2.6.) Is it possible you're using an old wp-config.php that you never upgraded? Check wp-config-sample.php starting at line 45. You will see these defined there.

    I checked my WP its Version 2.8.6 bottom right corner in dashboard. I used the automatic update. If it didnt update correctly can I do a manual update? what should I delete & keep so I dont ruin my setup..
    I checked the wp_config sample & this is what is in there...

    <?php
    // ** MySQL settings ** //
    define('DB_NAME', 'putyourdbnamehere'); // The name of the database
    define('DB_USER', 'usernamehere'); // Your MySQL username
    define('DB_PASSWORD', 'yourpasswordhere'); // ...and password
    define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); // 99% chance you won't need to change this value
    define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
    define('DB_COLLATE', '');

    // You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique prefix
    $table_prefix = 'wp_'; // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!

    // Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the
    // chosen language must be installed to wp-content/languages.
    // For example, install de.mo to wp-content/languages and set WPLANG to 'de'
    // to enable German language support.
    define ('WPLANG', '');

    /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

    define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__).'/');
    require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-settings.php');
    ?>

    You should use the new wp-config-sample.php and add the values you're missing. How old is that wp-config.php?

    Just use the wp-config-sample.php as a template, and use your existing values where you have them already in wp-config.php, and create the others. That's step one for this.

    Interesting all the other files in the folder are modified as of yesterday when I did the automatic update. But the config-sample is modified as of march 13 2008(date if my 1st install)

    By the way Word press is a great program & at an awesome price. Looking forward to rocking with my BBpress as well

    Thanks
