In reply to: CSS Integration problems
Please post your solution for the benefit of others who might be having the same problem. Thanks.
In reply to: Only admin can login?Someone just posted this:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-theme-integration#post-16362
Sounds like the same problem?
In reply to: Only admin can login?Do you have any plugins installed? If so, try disabling them and see if users can log in.
You’re running a modified template. If so, try the default template, unmodified, and see if the problem goes away.
Do you have access to server logs? If so, look for 500 errors being logged or php errors.
UPDATE: I just created a user and I see what’s happening. Not a blank screen, they’re just redirected to the login screen to log in again. Try a stock template and try disabling plugins.
Also, there’s a lot of javascript on that page. Does disabling those scripts affect anything?
In reply to: bbpress forum on wordpress pageI think the forum plugins tend to be slow, but that’s just anecdotal.
bbPress is great, it will just require some work to make it look like your WordPress. It’s not as simple as just creating a page and BAM! bbPress looks like WordPress. You will need to create a new template for bbPress that looks like your WordPress blog, or find a bbPress template that matches what you’re using for WordPress.
In reply to: bbPress.comSorry Guymed, forgot about that.

In reply to: how contact the adminIf it’s security related, you can post a bug at:
Or, you can join the dev list and post a message where all the important people hang out:

Finally, there’s always IRC:

In reply to: bbpress forum on wordpress pageMaybe this is relevant:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/installing-bbpress-on-a-wordpress-website
What you are looking for is pretty common, but there’s not a super easy way to do it without designing a bbPress template to look like your theme.
An alternative is to install a forum plugin for WordPress, instead of bbPress.
Someone else recently asked the same question:
In reply to: bbPress.comHow about a forum plugin for WordPress?
http://www.stuff.yellowswordfish.com/simplepress-forum/
http://www.xdweb.net/wordpress/xdforum2/ (old and probably dead)
http://www.fahlstad.se/wp-plugins/wp-forum/ (had some security issues, you should read to see if they’ve been taken care of)
I’ve never used any of them, I just know they exist for putting a forum on a WordPress page.
In reply to: Can’t get bbpress to installPlease try contacting me again. I’m pretty much around all the time. Maybe it’s a problem with the timezone difference.
In reply to: Error – Forumtiagobigode: what did you do to fix the problem? Please post the solution here so others may learn from your experience.
Thanks.
In reply to: Dummies GuideTo get rid of the whitespace where the tags were, open up style.css and find this around line 215:
#front-page #discussions {It looks like this now:
#front-page #discussions {
margin-left: 170px;
width: 590px;
}Change it to this:
#front-page #discussions {
width: 760px;
}That moves it over the the left, and makes it the full width (590+170 = 760.)
Not sure what other pages you want to do this on, but the procedure is the same.
In reply to: Seemingly Irresolvable ProblemCan you access the database directly with a tool like phpMyAdmin or something in your control panel?
I imagine there is a way to add a value to bb-config.php to override the setting in the database right now, but I have no idea what that does to your integration, so I won’t post that thought here. If you have phpMyAdmin, you can look at the tables and see what value you set for your wp_user table prefix.
Seems like you should not be able to enter an invalid value for your wp_user table value if it causes problems later.
In reply to: Using RSS FeedsIt might be the plugin. Have you tried without it? I tried accessing your forum, but I get a message:
“Sorry, only registered users may access the forums.
If you are registered then please login on the left.”
If I can’t see the forums, I don’t know how I could see the feed. Why not try disabling the plugin?
In reply to: Error – ForumThose b@stards! (the hosts, not Google.)
In reply to: bb-config & wp-configSorry Sam
Sam, I read that page you linked, but I didn’t see instructions on loading bbPress functions inside WordPress which is what gerikg seems to be looking for (maybe call it reverse integration.) I see the instructions for accessing WordPress functions inside bbPress.
Do I just need to read it again?
In reply to: Error – ForumYou can create a file called info.php and put this into it:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>Then access that at http://www.example.com/bbpress/info.php and see if the getmypid function is disabled (just search that page for getmypid.) If it is, I imagine you can just remove that bit from class-phpass.php line 43.
$this->random_state = microtime() . getmypid();In this instance, getmypid() just returns the pid of the process that called it and that is concatenated with microtime to provide a random number. You can use something else there and be fine, I think. Or, ask your host to enable it if it’s disabled.
In reply to: bb-config & wp-configThis is old but I think it’s still applicable:

In reply to: Using RSS FeedsI don’t think permalinks are required to use the RSS feeds. This thread has gone in a couple different directions. It started as RSS feeds but then whistler20 mentioned what he did with rewrite rules and his RSS feeds started working. I don’t think the original problem was solved in that manner.
Anyway, permalinks are not required for RSS feeds. If you are having a problem with RSS feeds I think the problem lies elsewhere. Are there actually content items posted that would be in the RSS feed?
Can you post a link to your forum? Maybe someone new looking at it will see items in the RSS feed, possibly something cached on your side?
In reply to: Using RSS Feedsekitel, this is not really related to RSS feeds is it?
What you do is access http://www.example.com/bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php, then take what is generated by that script and put that into your .htaccess.
The FM is right here:
In reply to: New type of profile spam?Hi Sam.
They are actually links on the profile page (in the screenshot they are green and clickable.) I didn’t actually click any of them to be 100% certain, and I don’t have any now that I can check to be sure.
I have very few plugins installed, none for the profile I don’t think. Here is a screenshot of my plugin page.
http://www.chrishajer.com/bbpress/plugins.png
If one comes through again, I will make sure the links are clickable. It actually looks like they did some tricks escaping the quotes (backslash and space.) If none come through, I will try to recreate it, and if I can, I will try it with the 0.9.0.2 release.
In reply to: New bbPress BUGGY!!!I think it would be best to list the bugs you encounter and then fix them one by one. I can tell you that the developers are hard at work based on the traffic generated on the development list. But if they don’t know of the problems, they can’t fix them. So, please, list your problems in the forum, preferably one post per problem if they are unrelated, with a good subject for each problem.
Some problems undoubtedly have solutions that have already been incorporated into the trunk release. Some will be bugs that need to be addressed in trac tickets.
In reply to: Second nameIt’s been asked for before, but I don’t think anything has happened with it.
In reply to: Request: Plug-in UpdateIt made sense to me, but I didn’t think it would be happening any time soon. Since WordPress just got this functionality in 2.5, I figured it would be a while until bbPress got it since it’s not quite to version 1 right now. The projects they took on for the Google Summer of Code were related to import/export, not anything like this, that I know of.

In reply to: Permalinks Slugs Modification – removing forumIt could work like that I think if there were no website (like WordPress) in the www root. Otherwise, how does the server know it’s a bbPress page vs. a WordPress page?
If you are running a forum only on a domain, then it would be silly to have it in any sort of directory at all. Otherwise, if you have a website in the root, you have to put bbPress into some sort of directory to prevent confusion.
In reply to: error after new post (all of a sudden)Nice troubleshooting.
