In reply to: No return to forum after posting
What version bbPress are you using? Do you have access to error logs? Maybe you have a problem in a template that is erroring out and causing the blank screen after you post.
I made a test post and I did indeed get stuck on bb-post.php, but my post made it through (and can be deleted now, since it was just a test).
In reply to: Forum got installed, but I can’t read any posts!Can you post a link to your forum?
Also, WordPress 2.6 won’t integrate well with bbPress 0.9.0.2. The logins won’t work on both the blog and the forum at the same time. But that’s not why you have this problem.
What directory structure did you use to install the forum? Is it in a sub-folder of the WordPress folder?
You have a typo in the forum <title> tag.
In reply to: Viewing User IPsThe IP address is logged in the database, so you could create a plugin to read that data from the database and show all IP addresses that have ever been used for that user.
I found with most of my users, they are using either cable or DSL and their IP changes pretty frequently over the course of a year.
In reply to: Change theme if mobile browser detected.Sounds like you have the mobile browser agent stuff figured out with the Tera-WURFL library. So, when you detect a mobile browser, you want to display your forum using the1col_fixed theme? Looks like it checks for a match to a mobile browser like this:
$matched = $wurflObj->getDeviceCapabilitiesFromAgent($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);
// see if this client is on a wireless device (or if they can't be identified)
if(!$matched || !$wurflObj->getDeviceCapability("is_wireless_device")){
echo "<h2>You should not be here</h2>";
}So, instead of the <h2> message they are displaying, you could use a theme switcher plugin to set the theme and direct someone to that URL. How about something like this:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbpress-theme-switcher/
That plugin says it uses cookies to persist the theme choice.
In reply to: Reply by EmailAs far as I know, there is no plugin like that for bbPress. WordPress allows you to post by email, and even if updates were sent out via an RSS to Email solution, the person receiving that wouldn’t be able to reply and have that posted to the blog.
Sounds like a better application for a mailing list, not a forum.
Or, does Basecamp do all that already?
In reply to: Profile Change resets User PWCan you check the password hash in the database for a user both before and after making a change to the profile? If the password has changes in the database, does it change to the same thing every time (access the profile page and make an unrelated change, multiple times)? For example, if you access the profile page for one user, and the hash in the database changes after you save their profile, can you access the profile page of another member, and then see if that password changes to the same hash?
In reply to: Persistent Login SessionWhat versions did you try to integrate?
If you scan the tag for integration you will see lots of people who have the same exact problem as you.
You are the only one who can resolve this, unless you have local help or remote help you trust to look at the connection details provided by your host, and you config, to find the problem.
If there’s a failure to connect, maybe the host setting is incorrect? What are the settings in your WordPress config? If you’re using the same database, then the settings here will be the same, other than the table prefix, which comes later. That should be unique inside your database.
In reply to: Slow Queries – 300 second query timesThere have been some relevant discussions here:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-0901-gt-30-queries-per-page
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/server-overload
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/fulltext-searching-very-slow
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-to-evaluate-server-speed
Looking at the front page of your forum, I see a total of 3074 threads and 22,121 posts. Is there more than meets the eye here to come up with 2.5 million rows of data? Or maybe there’s not 2.5 millions rows in bb_topics, it’s just because of the subquery that it looks at that many records (like it’s something I don’t understand about the way MySQL displays the number or rows searched)?
Did the amount of data grow exponentially after the conversion from xdforums? Maybe there were 20K rows in xdforums, but something with the conversion didn’t go well and it duplicated a bunch of data? How many rows were there in comparable tables before and after conversion?
Something doesn’t add up.
Also, are all those queries the same, and if so, is that query just trying to determine the last poster, from the “Forum Last Poster” plugin? If so, have you tried just turning that plugin off? If that works, then maybe just optimizing the query for your installation would work and you could turn it back on after modifying the plugin.
Of all the plugins, the only other one I could see affecting the queries like that would be the Post Count Plus. That would be the second one I turn off and check for a performance difference.
In reply to: How to redirect all registration to WordPressI think you could do something like this:

There are two different solutions there.
To redirect the member back where they came from after they’re done, you could do this:

Or contact the plugin author.
In reply to: En españolRegarding being unable to activate plugins, are you on a Windows host? What is your bbPress version, and what is your hosting platform?
Is this related?

I don’t understand your second question, sorry. My Spanish is not that good.
In reply to: 0.9.0.2 Integration with WP 2.5It could just be a problem with that host…
In reply to: INSERT queries for new Topic and new PostWhat is your MySQL version?
In reply to: Help with style in the theme Peacemaker.I suggest you use the Firefox browser and install the Web Developer toolbar from Chris Pederick. It will allow you to see what CSS classes apply to the content on the screen, then make changes to the live site to preview any changes.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60
Those two things will enable you to figure this out.
In reply to: Plugins not activating on local XAMPPThat’s a really good point. I’ve been using subversion so long I forgot they packaged up the alpha release and released it on the download page. In that case, I have no idea how to tell the revision, other than going through files and comparing them the specific revisions in the repository.
For this specific problem, though, you need r1649 which includes the change that Sam says fixed this problem. The bb-admin/admin-functions.php file in the archive you downloaded and the latest alpha are different. If you’re feeling adventurous, you might want to download a later alpha version and see if it fixes this plugin problem for you.
These alpha version should not be used on a production site, FYI.
In reply to: 0.9.0.2 Integration with WP 2.5The rewritten links have zero to do with cookies. The rewrite rules are not working for you on GoDaddy (ed: was Dreamhost here). Have you browsed other people’s experience by following that godaddy tag?
In reply to: bbPress 1.0 alphaMy completely uninformed guess is … no. I wouldn’t wait. Install something and see how it goes.
If you log in here, you can see the number of open tickets by milestone: https://trac.bbpress.org/report/3 . There are quite a few open for 1.0. Also, there hasn’t been a 1.0 beta or release candidate either. So, just my guess, no.
In reply to: 0.9.0.2 Integration with WP 2.5Regarding permalinks, you will find lots of people expressing some problem with permalinks on GoDaddy. Just check the tag for other discussions.
That .htaccess would not work for the forum directory. That just looks like the WordPress rewrite rules changed slightly for your forum directory. You need to follow these directions:
In reply to: WordPress cookie secret key – why don’t I have one?Norvu, those version are incompatible. You don’t integrate the cookies. If you want integrated logins, you need to use bbPress 0.9.* with WordPress 2.5 or bbPress Alpha with WordPress 2.6.

In reply to: Can’t log in after installationHave you tried with a different browser? I have seen a weird problem that I can’t consistently reproduce where after submitting info to the login form, it just redirects to the login form. I was able to log in with a different browser once before, and I haven’t seen the problem since.

In reply to: Plugins not activating on local XAMPPWhat revision of Alpha did you install? Looks like ticket 924 took care of the problem in revision 1649. The latest 1.0 alpha is r1755, which includes that change.

What do you mean by integration?
