In reply to: “This email appears invalid”
I saw something about a PHP function checkdnsrr being disabled in the latest build. That function is used in the bbPress function bb_verify_email.
I think the problem is that checkdnsrr is not available on Windows, and I’m not sure if it’s available on XAMPP. Here is how they fixed it in the latest trunk build:
https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/trunk/bb-includes/registration-functions.php
Here is the original bug report:
In reply to: WP – bbPress integration questions1. Use the same database if you want to integrate registrations.
2. Yes. Call the folder whatever you want.
3. Not sure. There was a post here at one point that mentioned directing all the registrations through WordPress since the registration plugins were more robust, but I can’t find it now.
Sorry, I forgot I was talking about tags.php specifically. Here’s a tags URL.
http://www.riversideinfo.org/forum/tags.php?tag%3Dtif
is what’s in the sitemap.
curl -I "http://www.riversideinfo.org/forum/tags.php?tag%3Dtif"returns a 302 header.
If you unencode it, and then curl -I:
curl -I "http://www.riversideinfo.org/forum/tags.php?tag=tif"returns a 200 header.
Maybe it’s just the urlencoding of the = that causes it to redirect? That’s the only difference between the two URLs here.
Here’s an example of a URL in the sitemap.
http://www.riversideinfo.org/forum/topic.php?id%3D3%26page%26replies%3D1
If you do a
curl -I http://www.riversideinfo.org/forum/topic.php?id%3D3%26page%26replies%3D1you get a 302 header back. If you URL unencode the URL and do a curl -I, you get back a proper 200:curl -I "http://www.riversideinfo.org/forum/topic.php?id=3&page&replies=1"I am not using permalinks or slugs, and that plugin author doesn’t seem to have updated it since I installed it long ago. I actually turned it off a while ago because of the amount of time it was taking to generate the sitemap for 5000 posts.
http://boakes.org/talk/topic/31
So, I guess the question is, why does that first URL trigger a 302? Maybe the sitemap plugin is creating URLs that are poorly formed?
In reply to: WhitelistingI would disable akismet too. I don’t know of a way to whitelist a user.
Is she posting more than 3 links per post? I think that’s one of the triggers. Since they don’t publish what triggers someone to get caught as spam, it’s hard to say exactly what triggers it. But posting a lot of links certainly will cause you to be marked as a spammer by Akismet.
In reply to: Prblem upgradingI don’t know the proper way to fix this. Is the user in the database someone you created or is that someone else? If it is one of your users, I think I would change the email on that account and then request a password reset for that account. Then you can change the password and change the email back. That would only help if the user is a keymaster/admin. If not, this will not help.
There used to be a way to create a new keymaster account by adding a line to the config.php (now bb-config.php).

I would backup your database first because I have no idea what this actually does and I don’t want you to lose anything.
In reply to: Cookies not shared between 0.9 and 2.5Fourteen days is long? Or you get 14 days when you click the “remember me”? What is the default length for the cookie when you don’t click “remember me”?
In reply to: Newbie: Query re step 2 wordpress integration.If it’s not a WordPress blog (I didn’t even really consider that), integrating with bbPress really won’t work out of the box. Integration just utilizes the wp_users and _usermeta tables. If you don’t have those tables since you don’t have a WordPress blog, then integration at this step doesn’t matter much. There is more work to do if you want an integrated look and integrated user logins.
In reply to: Prblem upgradingCan you just request a password reset and have a new one mailed to you?
If you have direct access to the database, you can edit the hash for the password for the admin user directly.
In reply to: Prblem upgradingIt says the bb_users table doesn’t exist. If you are integrated, it should be looking for the wp_users table, no?
Not sure what’s going on exactly. I would like to see how it plays out though.
In reply to: Newbie: Query re step 2 wordpress integration.In wp-config.php, there is this line:
define('SECRET_KEY', 'put your unique phrase here');Whatever value you have there is what you need for bbPress.
For WordPress address and Blog address, log into your WordPress control panel and under “Settings” you will find these two entries. Whatever is here is what you put into your bbPress installation.
They are entries three and four I believe.
In reply to: Cookies not shared between 0.9 and 2.5Is the secret different between WordPress and bbPress? I’m not sure how this works, but, I’m “willing to learn“.
What host are you using?
In reply to: Installation TroublesYou set the table prefix in your bb-config.php to wp_? That would almost certainly overwrite your wp_tables then. Restore from a backup and start over. You need to add the secret line to your wp-config.php and bb-config.php both.
If you have access to phpMyAdmin (looks like you’re at 1&1 Internet? They have phpMyAdmin installed in the control panel) take a look at the database tables directly and see what happened. Looks like you don’t have a wp_users table any more, and looking at the database directly will confirm if that’s the case.
In reply to: 0.9 reinstall and how to hide forums?How did you resolve it, for the benefit of others on this forum?
In reply to: Proposed method for file attachments and uploadsI don’t want this functionality included in bbPress. Do it with a plugin. Keep bbPress lean. That’s my vote.
In reply to: PRIORITY #1: ImageFile AttachmentsI disagree. Post your image elsewhere and then use the “Allow images” plugin. Don’t dump them on my server. I don’t have a need for images in my forum. Maybe we use bbPress for different things, which is what makes it great. Customize if for the functionality you need, nothing more.
In reply to: Cannot Delete Forums1. Hopefully you are using 0.9.0.1 not 0.9
2. All of the sudden, people are deleting forums and running into this typo-bug.

I am getting a 500 error now, so maybe you’re working on it? I was going to see what version bbPress and WordPress you are running.
In reply to: Censor forum posts only if user is not logged in…How do users who have not logged in post to your forum? Is that done with some sort of plugin?
In reply to: Recover my admin passwordIf you have access to the database with phpMyAdmin, you can do something like this:
Create a new user in bbPress. Check your email for the password email. Save that password somewhere. Now, open phpMyAdmin and take the password hash from the new user, and paste it into the password hash field for the admin user. Now, log into bbPress with your admin username. Delete the new user if you like.
If you don’t have access to the database, then why not just reinstall?
I think you used to be able to put a line in your config.php like this:
$bb->new_keymaster = true;Then run bb-admin/install.php again.Read more:

In reply to: Add nofollow to linksI thought this plugin did that?

No listing in the plugins tab means the plugin is malformed and is seen as just a file in that directory, not a plugin. You are going to need a plugin header, something as simple as this:
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: No 404s
*/
?>
