In reply to: Can not create a new topic in forum
Does the problem happen with the default theme? Chances are there’s a problem in one of your template files.
Or, possibly a plugin issue. Turn off plugins until your forum works again.
If you have access to error logs, you can look in there and see exactly what’s causing the problem. A blank screen is normally a 500 Internal Server Error.
In reply to: Can’t modify error pageSounds like when you modified it, you took out some important stuff. Post your modified files.
In reply to: Second Page Gone!Error log access is highly dependent on your hosting setup. If this is a shared server, you might have a control panel and in there might be access to logs. What is your hosting setup?
If you don’t have or can’t find logs, then you can setup error logging for bbPress, then just log to a file for a while and try accessing this page 2 and see what gets logged. Then, find and fix the problem. I can post the code for custom error logging, or you can google for it.

Yeah, but it’s broken now anyway, so what’s worse? If you don’t want to change it, I understand.
How about just creating a duplicate of it, duplicate the database, copy over all the files from bbPress, then change the domain name or something, or just access it by subdirectory, all on the same server. See if it’s still broken there. If it is, good, you have a good test environment. Now, try the stock theme, and try turning off plugins one by one (all twenty of them) and see when the problem goes away. You have far from a stock installation, so something in your forum or on your server has changed enough to create this problem.
In reply to: e-mail-notificationHow about watching the RSS feed for the site, in various places, to see when there are changes?
Or, something like this?

Or this discussion?

In reply to: Second Page Gone!That 503 error is back. You need access to server error logs, and if you don’t have those, you will need to set up some custom error logging to see what’s going on. Maybe a PHP resource is being exceeded when this happens. You need to find out why and I think that’s the best way to do it, check the log for errors.
I tried the topic first page, which was fine. Then I clicked the page 2 or next icon to get to page two, and it showed a blank screen. Then I tried just the forum page, and it showed a 503. I didn’t think to check when the blank screen was up if that was a 503 error too.
You are going to need access to some logs for additional info to fix this one.
To see if it’s your theme creating the problem, see if this happens with the stock theme. If it doesn’t then you need to find the problem with your theme that is causing this.
How about plugins? What plugins are you using? Maybe something that allows images is causing an out of memory error, if you all large images to be uploaded?
In reply to: Profile Change resets User PWSort of like this, but I don’t have any plugins installed:
In reply to: Profile Change resets User PWJust mentioning this hear in case anyone is having a similar issue. On a new WordPress 2.6.2 installation, I have noticed that when I access the user profile page, the first password field already has a password in it, asterisked out. When I look at what that value is, it appears to be the value of the existing password, in the field for the new password (first field of two.)
I will check WordPress.org and file a bug there or see if anyone else has had a similar experience. It just seemed somehow related to this weirdness.
In reply to: Show User Registration DateYou didn’t mention what version you’re using.
But, in my old version and in the latest trunk, bb-admin/admin-functions.php contains “bb_user_row” which returns the date the member registered: you can see it in the admin screen for managing users. I imagine duplicating or using that function would get you the the date of registration.
And when viewing a member profile, the “Member Since” text appears there also, with a more nicely formatted date (no time.) If you look at how the date is displayed there I bet you could get it to display where you want.
In reply to: Forum could not be created!You’re absolutely right. The only bbPress table with data in it is bb_meta, with 15 rows. None of the other bbPress tables have any data in them.
I did change the bb_ table prefix to bbpress_ and used a different one for WordPress too (wordpress_ instead of wp_) but that was all done pre-installation. The tables are there, just no data in them. It did read the WordPress user table at some point and told me the username to log in with, and “use current password” or something similar. So, somehere along the way, it died. I’m less concerned with getting my install fixed and more concerned with getting the installer fixed.
In reply to: Fail to make BBpress Live workingRight, it is more complex than that. Since the function returns an array it’s up to you do figure out how to display it. Also, looking at the widget code is a pretty good start of how to go about getting the data out of that array. And the readme file is also good.
Looks like the key I posted in the beginning there is not properly escaped within code blocks either. You can see the original key here, and how I posted it. If you check the source of that post, you can see how bbPress parsed it.
More info here, in the original format:
In reply to: Fail to make BBpress Live workingIt’s not a secret, it’s just not bbPress specific, it’s PHP. You need to loop through the array that is returned by that function. If you’re not comfortable learning enough PHP to accomplish that with the function, maybe you’d be better off the the widget. That’s why WordPress created widgets in the first place. It’s for people who don’t want to mess with PHP code. It’s drag and drop. Maybe enabling widgets in your theme would be easier than learning the proper way to loop through this array.
In reply to: Cannot Log InWhat version of bbPress are you using, and are you integrated with WordPress?
In reply to: No avatars show upAvatars are turned on the the admin settings?
Do you have this in your template’s post.php:
<?php post_author_avatar_link(); ?>Also, this appears in profile.php:
<?php if ( $avatar = bb_get_avatar( $user->ID ) ) : ?>
<div id="useravatar"><?php echo $avatar; ?></div>
<?php unset($avatar); endif; ?>
In reply to: “Remember Me” Broken After upgrade to 0.9.0.2According to the text in this plugin’s comments, the “remember me” is supposed to change the cookie expiration to 2 weeks out. Does that happen to the cookie when you check the box?
In reply to: “Remember Me” Broken After upgrade to 0.9.0.2Can you log in with one user, then check the cookie dates, close the browser, log in again, check the “remember me” and check the cookie dates? I have no idea how the function works, but maybe it just extends the expiration date of the cookie?
If that doesn’t appear any different, maybe posting the entirety of the cookies, with the box checked and without, would help someone troubleshoot it.
In reply to: wordpress HeaderFollow the instructions in the last section of this page:
https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/#func
You want access to the WordPress functions get_footer() and get_header() so you need to
includeWordPress in your bbPress.In reply to: why Regisration disabled. This is a demo site.?Can you post a minimally edited version of your config? Maybe change just one character in the sensitive information. The idea is not to destroy anything that might be an error in the file. If you edit ALL the sensitive information out, and then post it here, checking that file won’t do much good, since it’s not the original, not even close to it.
In reply to: Where is the language file for Tags?There is no language file for that text, it’s in your template file: /bb-templates/kakumei/post-form.php line 15 by default. You can change it there.
In reply to: Problem with rss/topicsPlease post a link to your forum and the feeds where you are seeing this behaviour.
In reply to: Piggyback onto bbPress user managementIf you’re going to be modifying the source, there’s probably no sense in waiting. You’ll have to keep up with security fixes manually at that point anyway.
I don’t recommend modifying any core files. I bet most of what you want to do can be done with plugins and then you can keep upgrading as new bbPress releases come out.
In reply to: Second Page Gone!This is the error I’m getting right now:
503 Service Temporarily Unavailable
In reply to: Ride Legend (bbpress/wordpress)Very nice, nice integration.
In reply to: Piggyback onto bbPress user managementI didn’t catch that you were looking for a forum in your first post, only that you wanted the registration functions. If you want a forum and registration functions, then yes, bbPress will be fine.
