No Luck. Between this and the Bozo problem I just ended up reverting to .74. My theme works again, but people flagged as Bozos are not hidden from general view. No problem, I’ll just delete them and wait for 1.0!

I changed the value of bb_active_theme in the database to:

/bb-templates/kakumei

However, when I refresh the admin > presentation page in a browser the it reverts back to:

C:WWWPUBLICforums.mybbpress.com/bb-templates/kakumei

[ccmve]

OK. Looking in the database tables in bb_topicmeta from bb_active_theme the value is C:WWWPUBLICforums.mybbpress.com/bb-templates/kakumei

I have no idea how this value got there, or if I might have other problems elsewhere. What should this value be?

It’s on Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition.

In the config file, I have it set to:

$bb->domain = 'http://www.forum.mybbress.com';

Above though it calls http://www.forum.mybbress.com before the absolute path and http://www.forums.mybbress.com after the path.

I’m not using xampp. The site is on a Windows server.

I deleted all the theme files, and uploaded mytheme to /my-templates/mytheme/

I was unable to select mytheme from the presentation tab as it still listed the absolute path in the middle of the URL with extra slashes:

http:// forum.mybbpress.com/bb-admin/themes.php? theme=C:\WWW\PUBLIC\forums.mybbpress.com/ my-templates/mytheme/&_wpnonce=36ec0251eb

I had to reload the kakumei folder to /bb-templates/kakumei to get the site working agin. The kakumei theme is now listed under the presentation tab as the current theme.

I think my problem is slightly different though since bbpress is incorrectly mixing the directory path with the URL and adding extra slashes.

I’m having a similar problem.

I’ve uploaded my custom theme to /my-templates/mytheme

The default theme is in /bb-templates/kakumei/

The site is working fine, but I see this error: “Theme not found. Default theme applied.” And I cannot switch to my custom theme. The reason is in the URL to the custom theme in the presentation>themes panel:

http:// forum.mybbpress.com/bb-admin/themes.php? theme=C:\WWW\PUBLIC\forums.mybbpress.com/ bb-templates/mytheme/&_wpnonce=36ec0251eb

Obviously that URL won’t work. I’ve uploaded both plugins above. Neither worked. How do I fix the URL to mytheme?

Thanks guys! I copied the BBP tables over to my WP db, and everything worked out fine — with the added bonus that this plugin now works perfectly. Maybe I missed it, but I think the BBP install instructions should make a point of recommending that BBP be installed in the WP database.

[ccmve]

Is it true that the ‘standard’ thing to do is install WP and BBP in the same database? If so, I’m going to take bbolman’s recommendation and copy my BBP tables into my WP database. Is it safe to copy these directly, or are the some alterations that need to be made first?

[ccmve]

That’s right Trent — I’m using 2 databases. I’ve been looking for a way to modify this plugin to get it look in the bbpress database, but I’m afraid my PHP skills aren’t quite up to it. Do you know of any other workarounds?

I’m getting this error in WP2.1:

---

WordPress database error: [Table ‘wordpress.bb_topics’ doesn’t exist]

SELECT * FROM bb_topics WHERE topic_status = 0 ORDER BY topic_time DESC LIMIT 10

—-

The table wordpress.bb_topics doesn’t exist because my bbpress database is named bbpress. So the proper database place to look would be bbpress.bb_topics

Any way to fix this issue?
