If you have access to phpMyAdmin, you can reset the auto_increment field to start over at 6 or wherever you are right now. I’ve never seen this one either, but somehow the auto_increment appears to have gotten messed up.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

Sounds like you need a plugin based on $PHP_AUTH_USER to read your existing user database. I don’t think one exists yet.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

macwise, you might find a php group more helpful for general help with parsing files with PHP, since it’s not purely a bbPress problem.

Parsing Apache access_log files with PHP

First Google result for that search.

More generically, this Google search might help.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

How about a URL where we can see this in action?

The original post is OK but the quoted characters are mixed up only?

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

I think you could destroy the tag with phpMyAdmin or some other way, directly in the database, right?

Sorry, I can’t help with the tags. Maybe this will help: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/433

It is limited, never checked how many, but it’s

taken care of automatically.

Not that I know of, and I know why it’s a problem (it messes up the layout when wide images are used.) Maybe just post the image parameters and ask people not to insert large images. Ban those who won’t comply

But maybe someone will consider the image size limits for a plugin.

Have fun

Sounds like your admin is marked as a bozo, and you need to use this plugin: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/822

You do not normally need to moderate all the admin’s posts.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

What was the reason for this? I’m curious.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

1. No, you can use the same database and that’s actually preferred if you want to integrate things with WordPress in the future.

2. Yes, look inside the config.php and you will see the lines for WordPress integration.

I was only kidding about making people use FF.

And from experience, it might take a week or so before the ticket is assigned, unless it’s affecting a lot of people or is an easy one to fix. I wish I had the answer but I have a hard enough time just reading from right to left.

Did you try removing the / class=”login” / from the template for the login form and see if the problem goes away in IE? At least that way it would be visible in IE, although not styled and ugly. It could be used at least temporarily until it’s resolved.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

Did you put your custom themes into folder under the my-templates directory?

Have you viewed this sticky and this was no help?

Also, please provide a URL where this can be seen. Sounds like the path to the CSS is borked. The URL also helps someone determine what sort of hosting you’re using.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

I don’t think you can use both frameworks at the same time. One is going to have to go.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

I think it would be really cool if there were a team working on writing importers to get as many people as possible involved with bbPress.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

The image will be there forever.

I don’t know anything about rtl, but if you remove the login form from the page, the page renders properly (no horizontal scroll.) If you remove the class=”login” from the form tag, the form elements appear in the header, but they are stacked vertically rather than displayed horizontally as they are in FF.

Here is a screenshot with the form unstyled without a class or style tag:

p.s. I attached both screenshots to the trac ticket should my server disappear.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

Trent, it’s definitely FUBAR in IE6:

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

Take a look at this. On the right is “view source” in Firefox, where the br tags appear properly. On the left is “edit source” using kwrite on Linux. Maybe it’s just weirdness with kwrite, but it seemed odd to me.

http://www.chrishajer.com/bike/XLF/br-weirdness.png

I suspect though that the problem is with a div causing the problem in IE. Still looking

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

Use Firefox until the problem is resolved?

[ducks]

Sorry, I looked and did not see what it could be.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

Is it possible they are moderated because you are marked as a bozo (which seems to be a bug)? That would explain it. Log into your admin panel and go to users > bozos and see if you are a bozo there. It will also be marked in your profile page.

It’s also possible you will see the posts caught by Akismet if you’re using that.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

There are several elements that are not included in the style.css and are thus unstyled. The other one I can think of is /blockquote/ – so, yes, just add these to your theme’s stylesheet if you’d like to modify the presentation of the tag list.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

Conversely, if you love the feature so much, simply add the plugin. The majority of bbPress users were not using the software as a support forum, so it was moved to a plugin. That’s all. I agree with the author’s decision to remove it from the core.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

Also, please post a link to a page where this occurs so we can see it in action.

[@chrishajer Participant 17 years, 10 months ago]

Sounds like it was a problem with the import somehow. If we weren’t previous users under SMF, I doubt we’d be able to experience this (since it only happens with new posts and old users, if I understand correctly.)

If you pre-encrypt the password and insert that value, you can then log in with your new password (in this case “test”).

What if you marked everyone as a bozo or something? Would all posts need to be approved then? I forget what you can do when you are marked as a bozo.
