    1. I use 1&1 and have no problems with them at all.

    2. The issue you are having is likely due to a problem with mod_rewrite. Try changing your config so that you are not using pretty permalinks, and I think your forum will work.

    # change this line to false, if you are using true

    $bb->mod_rewrite = false;

    Also, not sure what version you installed, but there’s a possibility it’s something else with slugs or something, but I think it’s due to mod_rewrite and .htaccess, pretty permalinks or Options MultiViews. Turn that off and I think you will find your forum works.

    There is something wrong with your path. Can you copy and paste the link to the CSS from your source? Maybe that will tell something. Otherwise, you just need to figure out where your installation is, and make sure the config matches that. You can post a link to your site too and someone can help out by looking at the source of the rendered pages.

    I think it is worth the time to make a plugin. I like the idea.

    The user is recorded in the bb_tagged table. In that table are

    tag_id

    user_id

    topic_id

    tagged_on

    From there, you could figure out the tag_id of the offending tag, then who applied that tag. Then you could deal with it.

    Personally though, I just delete stupid tags.

    zhaarteth, what problem are you having specifically? Do you have a link to your forum?

    cweb: I think this is fixed in the latest trac version and will be in 1.0:

    How about this for including the latest bbPress posts in your WordPress sidebar?

    Actually, I believe a post_status of 1 means the post has been deleted and is not visible on the forum. Maybe the field should be called post_deleted since that’s what a 1 there seems to mean.

    There is a trac ticket started for it already:

    https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/649

    It’s just a warning though, not an error. Display of warnings on a production server should be turned off. If this is from your logs, then it’s not a big deal and someone will address the trac ticket.

    As for Italian, I don’t think there is one yet. Here is a list (I think it’s current) of all the available translations:

    In reply to: Tags not separating

    @chrishajer

    Participant

    When the post is created, the tags are split on spaces, so foo and bar would have been created as separate tags. When you add tags to an existing topic, you can use spaces and enter tags one at a time. So you would enter foo and get a foo tag, and then bar and get a bar tag. My guess is that ‘foo bar’ was entered as a tag on an existing topic, and that’s how it stayed. If they were expecting the tag to be split on the space (like a new topic handles the tags) they would be surprised maybe to learn it works differently with existing topics.

    Also: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/472?replies=7

    Maybe?

    The list has been quiet for a while. The last message I have is Volume 30, Issue 1 from May 11, 2007. The one prior to that was Volume 29, Issue 17 dated April 23, 2007.

    If you are getting a blank page, you probably have a syntax problem in one of your template files that’s creating a PHP error, and your host just stops on errors. Try using the default theme and see if things work. If they do, then try looking at the files you modified for a PHP syntax error.

    If you have access to a php error log, you can look there for information too.

    I have my wordpress install as the root of my website and then there is a folder beneath that for ‘forums’.

    So, my directory structure looks like this:

    /var/www/wp-config.php
    /var/www/forums/config.php

    In the bbpress config.php I have these (relevant) lines:

    $bb->path   = '/forums/';
    $bb->wp_home = 'http://www.website.com';
    $bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://www.website.com';

    For yours, since you have WordPress at wp_01, you would have something like this:

    /var/www/index.html <---- your website home, not WP home
    /var/www/wp_01/wp-config.php
    /var/www/wp_01/forums/config.php

    your config.php:

    $bb->path   = '/wp_01/forums/';
    $bb->wp_home = 'http://www.intar.org/wp_01';
    $bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://www.intar.org/wp_01';

    Those “Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by ” errors are almost always caused by whitespace at the end of a file, most likely a config. Is there a blank line after the closing ?> in one of your config files?

    Search engines have no problems with 301 redirects.

    http://www.tamingthebeast.net/articles3/spiders-301-redirect.htm

    You could save this as your index.php and not have any trouble:

    <?php
    header("Status: 301 Moved Permanently", false, 301);
    header("Location: http://www.yourdomain.com/forum.php");
    exit();
    ?>

    What are the reasons you don’t like redirects?

    What version MySQL are you using? Prior to 3.23.23 you could not create a full text index.

    Still thinking about this one…

    On the forum home page, the closing </div> for the wrapper is missing, but that’s the page that looks OK. On the Add New page, it appears that the wrapper div is closed, but that’s the page that is messed up. There’s something with the tag not being closed, or being closed in the wrong place that’s causing it to look like that.

    In fact, removing the closing </div> before the footer on the add new page makes that page look fine. It’s not valid, so there’s another problem, but that makes it look ok.

    From the looks of your site, it worked. :D

    Solved how? Please share for the benefit of others. Thanks.

    Can you do it from a command line rather than a web interface to avoid the upload problem?

    Can you upload the file and then do something like this on the command line:

    mysql -u UserName -p DBName < TheFullTargetFilePath.SQL

    -p will prompt for the password on the command line

    I imagine there’s probably a -h if you need to specify a different host too.

    0 queries executed is a normal result after an import. That doesn’t mean it failed (the message by itself doesn’t, I mean.)

    @chrishajer

    Participant

    There are a couple of tricks you could use (I have no idea how it’s done officially.)

    In your site, all you would need to do is insert this into the template that contains the page navigation you have now (Home, About and Contact all appear to be pages):

    <li class="page_item"><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/forum/" title="Visit the forum">Forum</a></li>

    The -r just means they don’t have command line php installed.

    So, if you can send mail from the server, where are the registration emails going? Did you check the spam/bulk/junk folder as suggested by SamBauers? Or is everything working fine now?
