  1. Very strange. What do you get when you post a new post?

    Zenon, try the latest.

  2. Long time, no test.

    fel, I have recently installed fresh new wordpress and bbpress on my web site. I am still running into the problem of posts not being created unless default forum is filled in on the options screen. However, I can't override this by using a different forum number on the write a post page. Any idea what the hangup is there?

  3. The posting and commenting errors are gone, but when a comment is made, the user gets stuck on wp-comments-post.php and all the comments show up twice, but only one of the two comments that show up for each one can be deleted.

    think ill take that back.. when i viewed the forum the topics where there, but didnt belong to a forum just latest discussions, because ive had a forum id that didnt exists in settings and therefore they where orphans. I manually adjusted that in phpmyadmin.

    Great job with the plugin! applause! :D

    Edit: only one minor problem.. first wp page says no comments even though they are there.

    When I add the felbbreplies() in my wp-template I get the following error.

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function felbbreplies() in /customers/mysite.se/mysite.se/httpd.www/testsite/alfa/wp-content/themes/unnamed-one-Tidsv/single.php on line 19

    It looks perfectly fine and defined to me in the plugin, so whats can be the problem?

    Also, If I just activate the plugin (without changing anything in my templates) and ad some comments, the post i wright in WP shows up multiple times in WP, but looks fine in BB ...

    I must admitt I don't realy get how I'm supposed to work this ...

  7. Hello Felt~

    I'm getting this error in Wordpress' bbSync plugin page: "I don't have a working path to your bb-load.php file for bbPress, and I need it to make this work!" I've checked the path to the file many times and it is correct. I'm positive.

    When I do try and make a comment, it goes to a blank wp-comments-post.php which I assume is due to the error above.

    Any ideas on what may be going wrong?

    Wordpress 2.3.1 & bbPress 0.8.3 and bbSync 0.91;

  8. I also have problems with double comments showing up in WP - one that can be edited / deletet from WP, and one who seems to belong to bbPress. When I have deletet all the "WP comments", the "bbPress comments" still show under the blogarticle, but not on the frontpage.

    And this thing with <?php bbrepliestext(); ?> I really don't get. Where am I suposed to put it?

    Comments made on WP still show up on bbPress in the rigth forum. It is the WP part how seems to be broken.

    Btw, I have a clean install of WP and bbPress.

    Crowspeaker, working on it, cheers.
    vafaaaan, if you try to migrate from bbPress Post without having had bbPress Post in the first place, you'll get errors.

    oledole, felbbreplies is _not_ defined in the plugin. You don't need to add it to your template if you're using a new version of bbsync.

    > Any ideas on what may be going wrong?
    Can you tell me what path you're entering, and what path it displays back to you?

    messo, no need to do anything with it.

    Yes, comments made through wp show up in duplicate right now. I'm working on it.
    Comment count in wordpress in not increased. I didn't think it worth it the extra query every time. I suggest you change your template; I've got this:

    <?php if($topic_id = felwptobb( $id ) ) { echo '<a href="' . bbreplylink( $topic_id ) . '">Reply!</a>'; } else { comments_popup_link('&nbsp;comments', '1 comment', '% comments','',''); } ?>

    I have no idea why people are getting stuck on that wordpress file. Weird.

  10. fel64 - Here is the path I'm using /httpdocs/social/bb-load.php

    I'm not sure what your asking about when you say "and what path it displays back to you" If you want the error message, it says "I don't have a working path to your bb-load.php file for bbPress, and I need it to make this work!"

    FYI: it's not for my site, it's for one I'm working on.

    Thanks

  11. Are you running it locally? If I remember correctly I had to give my path when I was working on this under xampp with backslashes.

    If not, find out what BBPATH is and compare it to what you're inputting.

    If that doesn't work, I don't know; bbSync tests the path given by checking if the file exists, and if that doesn't work I don't know how it could include it later.

  12. I found the issue. I was looking for the path via FTP which only shows what the host wants you to see. Once I got PHP to throw a real error, it showed the full server path. That one worked. ;)

    My question now is will the plugin work well without un-registered users? Any way to make forum posts without having an account? I don't want to force people to register.

  13. I'm having a couple of issues:

    1. Is it just me, or are a few files missing from the package. There are claims in the documents of a stylesheet and another file outside of bbsync.php.
    2. When I put the <?php bbrepliestext(); ?> tag in my theme, it shows nothing, then I try <?php felbbreplies(); ?> and I get Fatal error: Call to undefined function felbbreplies() in /Applications/MAMP/taos.htdocs/woodfin/wp-content/themes/default/single.php on line 56

    I've integrated WordPress and bbPress with the database and plugins. Is there something I'm missing to make this work, because this is a great plugin.

  14. > Any way to make forum posts without having an account?

    Nope. 's not core functionality. I believe there are some hacks out there to do it, but they look pretty hardcore and I won't be working with those.

    Fel,

    I just tried installing bbsync, and after editing the config page I'm getting the following error:

    WordPress database error: [Table 'my_wordpress.forums' doesn't exist]
    SELECT forum_id, forum_name FROM forums WHERE ( forum_id = 'News Comments' OR forum_name = 'News Comments' )

    Maybe it's because I've intalled WordPress and bbPress into different databases? If so, it'd be great if you offered to load the bbpress config.php file and get the proper directly from that, or had us add a few lines into our wp_config.php file with the bbpress database login info.

    Thanks!

  16. Hello

    Now that we've had bbSync running for a few days, I've found some issues.

    1- When I put in <?php felbbreplies(); ?>, nothing happens. Instead I've been using the Wordpress comment form un-edited. I don't even find that function in the plugin code.

    2- New posts are showing n's in bbPress when a post is made on the blog.
    Example: http://www.smart-kit.com/social/topic/teeter-totter-balance-puzzle

    3- Registered users comments are not getting posted to bbPress. Only the blog post authors comments seem to sync.

    Over all this is a great plugin, just a few bugs to work with. :)

  17. > Maybe it's because I've intalled WordPress and bbPress into different databases?
    That's it, yeah. Easiest solution is to use $bbdb instead, and since it's the admin panel I don't care about efficiency therefore ... loading bb. .93 with this change will be available in a half-hour or so.

    BD,
    1. No need to put it in. I thought I removed all references to that, where did you get the instruction to put it in? (Just so I can remove it)
    2. Worksformeinlatest.
    3. Are they logged in in WP? In bb? Is the blog post author logged in to wp, bb? I probably won't be able to do anything about that until I replicate.

    Yup, lots of bugs. Thanks for reporting them, that way I can get rid of them. :P

  18. Thanks for the feedback fel64. I just upgraded to the latest version of bbSync so hopefully that'll help a few of my issues.

    1) Regarding felbbreplies, I think that was in an earlier version that I was using. The documentation seems to be gone now.

    2) Regarding the unwanted n's, I'll monitor this to see if it happens in the newer version.

    3) Regarding the users comments not getting logged in bbPress, yes they are logged in and maybe it had to do with comment moderation? We've turned that off and upgraded the plugin so hopefully all is good now. I'll monitor it.

    Thanks :)

  19. Help!

    Comments on the site are missing. :( They are in Wordpress' admin but they are not showing.

    Example: http://www.smart-kit.com/s960/farmer/

    There are 13 comments, but none are showing.

    My best guess is that they are in Wordpress but not bbPress and thus, not showing. How can I fix or merge them together??

    Posted: 9 months ago #
  20. 2. Did some more work on that.

    14 comments now. Indeed they won't show if they're not in bb, because comments aren't linked to replies individually and I therefore just ignore all comments and display replies. Is that blog entry synced to a topic? There is a check in the code to make sure it is, but maybe that's not working as expected.
