In reply to: get some trouble …
I think you will be redirected from bb-admin if you’re not logged in or if you’re logged in as someone other than keymaster. Can you take a screenshot showing who you’re logged in as?
Sounds like you don’t have a link to Admin either. That makes me think you’re not the keymaster. Can you confirm with direct access to the database that you are in fact the key master? I think that’s the source of your problem.
There was also a plugin that I thought could do this. Are you using any plugins? I would tell you to disable them one by one, but since you can’t access the admin section, that would be hard. I think right now you are going to need direct access to your database tables with a tool like phpMyAdmin or whatever your host provides.
Regarding the WordPress error, that’s a WordPress issue and I think you will find help over at the WordPress forums, for example:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/134771
(From the looks of it, there is no more post2cat table in WP 2.3, but not all the plugins have caught up, so some of them are causing this error. Or possibly you just need to upgrade the database schema to match your WordPress installation? In either case, that’s a WordPress issue and totally unrelated to bbPress.)
In reply to: Is there an Approve Registration plugin?What if the email confirmations were sent to an admin email instead of the email that they used to register with, then you forwarded it to their email if it’s real or just trash it if it’s not? That seems like it would be a simple plugin or modification.
In reply to: bb/wp integration and username issuesDoes this help:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/spaces-in-login?replies=6#post-5180
There is a link to an old plugin (for v 0.74) that made spaces work. Not sure if that still works. But the thread talks about your problem exactly.
In reply to: I’m installed But Get 404 Not FoundWhatever file your wp-config.php is in is where you normally want your bbpress folder. That would give you one of two things:
http://www.site.com/ (where this is actually WordPress for your site)
http://www.site.com/bbpress (bbPress forum)
OR
http://www.site.com/ (website)
http://www.site.com/wordpress (WordPress blog)
http://www.site.com/wordpress/bbpress (bbPress forum)
Lots of people use WordPress alone for their website. If you are using it for your site, and your site is at http://www.site.com, and you want bbpress in a folder called bbpress, then drop the bbpress folder into the root folder for your site (wherever wp-config.php is.)
IF you don’t need integration, and you have a website, a blog (WordPress) and want a forum (bbPress) just put the bbpress folder at the same level as the wordpress folder. So you would have this:
http://www.site.com/wordpress/
If you are not concerned with integration, and you have a website AND a WordPress install, then I would do the option directly above (with bbpress and wordpress directories at the same level.)
Hope that makes sense.
In reply to: I’m installed But Get 404 Not FoundHmmm – can you post a URL where this is visible? I can’t imagine why there would be no URL after the http:// in the 404 message (unless you edited that out so the world would not see it.)
In reply to: I’m installed But Get 404 Not FoundA URL to your site would help with some of these problems.
If your website is at http://www.my_site.com/, whatever folder beneath that level where you installed bbPress is the URL you should list in your config. So if you installed it in /forums/bbpress then yes, that is that is what would be in your config.
Normally, you would use a subfolder right inside your website root folder. So, when you unzip bbPress, it creates a bbpress folder. You can rename that to forums if you want to access your site at http://www.my_site.com/forums/ – if you put that bbpress folder inside the forums folder, then the URL is going to be http://www.my_site.com/forums/bbpress .
In reply to: Can’t find admin panelIt’s not located at http://bluejavamug.com/bbpress/bb-admin/ ?
Are you sure all the folders and files made it up there on upload?
Do you have an .htaccess file that might be rewriting it in a bad way?
If you login as the keymaster, is there a link that says
(Admin | Log out)after your name where Admin is a link to the admin panel?Maybe you’re not logged in as the keymaster?
In reply to: Avatar Upload: Square off AvatarsI thought it already did that?
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/46
Admins can configure maximum allowed file size
(bytes) and dimensions (pixels) of images from
within the admin page (credit: Sam Bauers).
Images that exceed maximum dimensions are
automatically resized (and sharpened if truecolor
images).Or are you asking for it to do something different than that?
In reply to: get some trouble …You just need a link in your “Pages” area to http://www.summer-breeze-fanatics.de/forum/ – it’s installed properly so you just need to link to it so people know it’s there.
I’m not sure about the rest of your questions. bbPress is not a plugin for WordPress, it doesn’t become part of your WordPress installation. To make it look like your WordPress installation you need to do some CSS work. As for the creating new topics, I did not receive a confirmation for me account creation, so I could not log in to try that. Is mail being sent from the server? I waited about 10 minutes but still no confirmation.
In reply to: Can not post or see profile after installAre you using mod_rewrite with slugs or pretty permalinks? What does this line in you config.php look like?
$bb->mod_rewrite = false;(could be true or slugs also)Maybe mod_rewrite is not supported or your .htaccess is preventing rewriting somehow and that results in the 404 Not Found error?
What do the URLs look like that are resulting in this error?
Adding a link or a button to your WordPress site is easy. Just add a link to the forum URL in whatever format your blog header uses. Post a link to your site and someone will help with the formatting of your new button.
In reply to: Getting “already installed error” on fresh installI didn’t think you could put bbPress and WordPress in the same folder.
$bb->uri = ‘http://www.areamom.com/test’;
$bb->wp_home = ‘http://www.areamom.com/test’;
$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://www.areamom.com/test’;
And http://areamom.com/test/ points to a WordPress installation. So, where’s the bbPress? I did find this:
http://areamom.com/test/bbpress/ which results in this error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/areamomc/public_html/test/bbpress/config.php on line 29That’s right after the mod_rewrite line in the config. Maybe you have an extra single quote there or you forgot the semi-colon in your config? Oh yeah, check this:
$bb->mod_rewrite = false<– no semi-colon.That means this you should add the semicolon to the mod_rewrite line line and then this line should be changed:
`$bb->uri = ‘http://www.areamom.com/test/bbpress’;
In reply to: Installing bbPressIn WordPress, just publish a page with no content in it. That gives you a blank page. That is not going to help accomplish what you want though. You can put an iframe in a WordPress page, but I don’t think the bbPress software will work there. All the links will be “out” of the WordPress page and iframe.
It was discussed here about a month ago:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/unable-to-log-in-in-iframes?replies=9#post-11042
Getting your bbPress install to look like your WordPress install takes a bit of work. It’s not as simple as putting it in an iframe.
In reply to: Line 80 errorIt is already fixed in the development (alpha) version, so it will be in the next public release, whenever that is. Sorry for the problems.
In reply to: Problem at step 2 of installationCool – enjoy.
In reply to: Line 80 errorFor overwriting the one file with another, basically just paste the contents of this file /bb-includes/db.php into this one /bb-includes/db-mysqli.php and then save. Now you have two different files, but they both contain the contents of /bb-includes/db.php.
In reply to: Line 80 errorTrac is generally very coder oriented. I’m not a coder but I can keep up sometimes. I can apply the patch to the file and then send you the updated files, maybe that will work. Or if you have access to a linux system, patch is the name of an executable that will most likely already be installed.
In reply to: Line 80 errorThe best way I know is with a linux system to use the
patchcommand. If you don’t have access to that program, I could patch the file and email it for you. Or you could download a later release where the problem is already fixed. Check my profile for contact information if you need help.There were other solutions as well in this post:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/installing-bbpress?replies=14#post-11787
Did you try anything else?
In reply to: Tag Editing RulesIt’s not in the config that I know of, but you can look at bb-includes/capabilities.php and find
'edit_others_tags'and'edit_tags'– I think you could edit the capabilities to allow members those two functions. I’m not sure if there’s a plugin that allows the same thing or not. That would be a modification to a core file which is a bad thing in general. You lose that modification if you ever update your bbPress installation.I would not take my advice to edit capabilities.php and would instead look for a plugin that will allow you to change the capabilities of a member.
In reply to: Agregar nueva categoría de temasAh, sambauers and I crossed posts there.
In reply to: Agregar nueva categoría de temasYou would have parent topics of “Main Theme” and “Secondary Themes” and then children of Main Theme as
Main Theme
— Installation
— Troubleshooting
— Themes
— Plugins
— Requests and Feedback
— Pimp your Press
and children of you Secondary Themes as
Secondary Themes
— Support Theme
— Crystal Theme
— Misty Theme
— Free Blank Theme
— Future King Theme
Actually, after rereading that, I’m NOT sure that does what you want. You don’t want subforums, you just want categories of forums. Having never done it, I’m not sure it would work that way if you did it as I described. Did you try it and if so, what was your result?
In reply to: Agregar nueva categoría de temasIf you are looking for secondary themes, you want subforums, which are built in. When you do as I suggested above you have the ability to select a parent forum, and when you do, your new forum becomes a child. Try it and see – I really think that’s what you want.
In reply to: Line 80 errorI think the posts tagged 745 might help (745 is the trac ticket where the solution is discussed).

Maybe this post in particular:

In reply to: Problem at step 2 of installationThese are how the 3 lines look before any customization (I took the comments out):
$bb->wp_table_prefix = '';
$bb->wp_home = '';
$bb->wp_siteurl = '';Yours might look like:
$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_';
$bb->wp_home = 'http://jackhammr.org';
$bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://jackhammr.org';when you’re done.
In reply to: Problem at step 2 of installationI think this line is the problem:
$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_;$bb->wp_home';That should be something like:
$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_';and
$bb->wp_home = 'http://jackhammr.org';Somehow you got part of the 2nd line onto the end of the first line. Fixing that will fix your problem.
