In reply to: Ning layout?
I bet this could be adapted to work:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/recent-posts-kinda-like-the-edit-comments-in-wp
There is also an RSS feed for Recent Posts in bbPress, so you could probably adapt some sort of RSS importer to display the 5 most recent (this seems like a hack though.)
In reply to: Intergrating the theme> wordpress is at /
> bbpress is at /bbpress
That’s fine and will work well.
You say you “took out the script”. What script are you talking about?
How is your WordPress installation? Is everything OK there?
In reply to: Possible way to upload image to postOn another note, I fixed the JavaScript error and was able to use the [INSERT] link to insert the code into the post, but this is what appears:
[attachment=1,undefined]
I am guessing the undefined is part of the problem. That code still remains in the post though. I read this in the plugins page:
(extra BBcode plugin not actually needed)
I don’t have any bbCode plugin installed (I have no plugins installed actually) so I’m not sure why this bbCode is not being converted by the plugin.
In reply to: Possible way to upload image to postbrad_langdon: I think if you want to use the Attachment plugin you will want to wait for _ck_ to pop in.
In reply to: Possible way to upload image to postI tried inserting the bbcode directly, like the JavaScript would have done (I think), but it does not appear to work either.
[attachment="2","1"]
The above just displays in the post.
In reply to: Possible way to upload image to postThere are two different options here.
1. Allow Images plugin. The member needs to link to an image available in the Internet somewhere. If that’s not a problem, then that’s the way to go. It allows members to insert images into their posts. Pretty easy.
2. Attachments plugin. This you have working as attachments now, but you want the image inline, not attached. The newest version is supposed to do that, and I just read this on the plugin page:
After uploading, an [INSERT] link will appear next to each attachment.
So, the user needs to upload it first, then go back and edit their post, and click the [INSERT] link. I actually just noticed that: I have the link, but it doesn’t work. It seems like a JavaScript error.
Error: myField is not defined
Source File: http://www.example.com/bbpress/edit.php?id=2
Line: 76If you cannot use the Allow Images plugin, instead of the Attachments plugin, then you might want to post your concerns on the plugin page, or wait for _ck_ to show up here. The plugin was released early because a lot of people were looking for the inline functionality, and I’m sure _ck_ will appreciate feedback from anyone using it.
In reply to: Possible way to upload image to postI just installed the plugin and I can attach as well but not inline it. Maybe _ck_ will be along soon to explain how to inline the image.
Does the “Allow Images” plugin not work for you do to the requirement to have the member host the image somewhere?
In reply to: Can not upgrade to 2.6Congrats and good luck.
In reply to: changing hosts – need to reinstall bbPress?1a. Yes. Just download everything in the bbPress folder (whatever you called it) and then upload that to the new server. That takes care of the file system. Then dump the database and import that on the new host as well.
1b. No, don’t start from scratch, that almost never helps. You can modify what you have going on already.
2. Not sure. There are probably a couple URL related entries you’d have to change, either in bb-config.php or the database somewhere. Not sure what those are exactly, but I doubt it would be too bad.
In reply to: How to Add custom Nav Bar to Theme?Can you contact me off list ( check my profile )? It would be easier then back and forth, if you’re available.
In reply to: Possible way to upload image to postI think rather than attachments you want the “Allow Images” plugin, where people can insert an image into their reply.
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/allow-images/#post-6
The member has to have the image hosted somewhere accessible on the Internet though ( http://imageshack.us/ or http://photobucket.com/ or http://flickr.com/ or something ). If you want the ability to host their image then display it rather than link to it as an attachment, then you might want to look into this alpha version of the attachment plugin that allows inline image viewing.

In reply to: Intergrating the themeSounds like you put all the bbPress files into the folder that had WordPress files in it? Can you confirm that?
What version of bbPress and WordPress were you running?
In reply to: Intergrating the themeI think this is a good place to start:
In reply to: Just a question…Yes, put it in it’s own folder, inside the WordPress folder. So you might have something like this:
/var/www/public/website/wordpress
/var/www/public/website/wordpress/bbpress/The 404 error might be because you are trying to use permalinks, either “slugs” or true, and they’re not set up on your server. I would change them to
false
for now and see if you can get the links to work. If that works, then you know that was the problem and you just need to set up permalinks.https://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks
phpBB3 conversion:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/phpbb3-converstion
I don’t think so, not easily, not yet. I think there was a script to export phpBB2 to bbPress:

In reply to: Can not upgrade to 2.6You should post from now on on the WordPress.org support forum for WordPress help, but we can still help you here since we’re mostly familiar with WordPress and bbPress.
You do *not* need to edit the file, but it looks like you did based on that error, which is why we asked.
I would try uploading all the files again. Maybe something just got corrupted in that one file, or maybe more files.
If you need assistance, please contact me at the website listed in my profile.
In reply to: Please Critique my Forum DesignIf you do a
curl -I http://example.com/
from the command line on a Linux or Mac machine, or check the response headers with Firebug or the Web Developer Toolbar (both Firefox add-ons) you will see the response header is a 404, but the page still loads. This has something to do with WordPress, I think.I tried to load a page on your forum just now, to show you the header output, but I keep getting a “page load error.”
I change the Firefox icon to the IE icon on people’s desktop then remove IE from the desktop. It’s a hard habit to break but well worth it.
I think you *can* subscribe to a site feed from within Google Reader: that’s the whole point. Use the “Add Subscription” button and paste in the URL for the feed you want. That’s it.
In reply to: WordPress access to bbPress FunctionsDid you add that to wp-config.php as the first line, right after the
<?php
?The error
cannot redeclare
means something has already been included that it’s trying to include again.http://www.google.com/search?q=Cannot+redeclare+_http_build_query()

There are several different types of RSS feeds, so maybe some sites and some feeds are handled better than others.
If you are stuck using IE6 you’re going to need a feed reader. IE7 has one built in, and IE8 is due around the end of the year as well.
Once you try Firefox or IE7 (or any browser with tabs) I don’t see how you’d want to go back.
Here is more info about RSS readers:
