In reply to: Reverse Topic Order
gerikg, I know. bbPress in general needs better search.

I am going to guess they created their own or paid someone to do that for them
In reply to: Slashes being added when using certain symbolsIn reply to: Slashes being added when using certain symbolsI’ve seen that on integrated installations, or when using a language file. Is that your situation?
This has been reported but I don’t recall much about it lately, not a lot any way:

In reply to: Errors in bbPress – seen on the Official forumsI still don’t believe there is any truth to the existence of a cache. Does anyone have proof of this?
I believe deleting either users or posts or topics, by whatever process, does not properly reset the last poster, number of voices, number of posts, number of replies, etc. Which is why I think this is related to either bugs or not fully developed or poorly performing plugins.
The functions exist, as ashfame explained, to fix problems. It should not happen on a regular basis.
From the “recount” page of the 1.1-alpha admin:
To minimize database queries, bbPress keeps it’s own count of various items like posts in each topic and topics in each forum.
If the plugin or even built-in functionality does not accurately update the count, then you need these recount functions. If the code were perfect (core and plugins) then these functions would need never be used.
In reply to: Errors in bbPress – seen on the Official forumsAs a moderator here, I don’t have access to the recount functions to reset things, and don’t have access to MySQL to see the data that’s being stored for counts, last poster, etc.
In reply to: Errors in bbPress – seen on the Official forums@zaerl: “Cause bbPress uses a cache system in order to minimize database queries and sometimes it goes out of synch.”
Really? Where do you see evidence of this in action?
I think the problem with the negative counts here is a bug.
I think the problem with the incorrect voices/posts is probably a bug.
I think the need for recounting is because sometimes plugins don’t work cleanly when moving or deleting posts or topics or users. Maybe when you delete a topic that has posts the counts are not recounted or recounted properly. I think bozo and Akismet probably figure into it.
I think the need for recounting is almost always because some code did not account for changing the count somewhere.
In a perfect world, there would be no need for recounting functions. But as we all know, software is not a perfect world, so recounting helps clean things up. But I don’t think it has anything at all to do with caching. I’d love to see that I am wrong about this.
AFAIK, there is no bb-cron equivalent of wp-cron, which seems like it would be a perfect place for cleaning up cached information, if it existed. Where is this cache of information? I thought the topic count, post count, voices, post count, etc, we all stored in the database. No caching involved (other that whatever is built in to MySQL.)
Anyone know any different?
In reply to: Intermittent 'page not found' on valid ulsThis issue has been reported before with deep integrated sites. Every page of the forum will return a 404, I believe, but depending on the browser, you sometimes see the content instead of the errors. Here are the headers returned from your forum:

I also think a simple solution was to include wp-load.php instead of wp-blog-header.php. Which one are you including now?
In reply to: really not sure bbpress is any good> – can bbpress be inserted into my wordpress page? (i think i read it cannot but still can’t believe it)
Not really. You would need to create a theme for bbPress that looks like your WordPress theme.

In reply to: Continuing Topic Iconskevinjohngallagher – alex and I have been discussing on Twitter. My only concern was that the important discussion should not be part of this topic. It’s liable to get overlooked, and doesn’t help this specific situation. That was it.
In reply to: Continuing Topic IconsI should have phrased that differently. The discussion is fine but I think it should be outside this specific topic. It seemed a little personal between two people, which is why I first suggested to take it off list, but you can of course take it wherever you want. I would just like to keep to the “one topic per thread” convention.
In reply to: Continuing Topic IconsAlex Luft and kevinjohngallagher please take your discussion off the forum. Thanks

In reply to: Import 0.9.x 'Backup' into 1.0.2 DB?The database connection problem is not likely related to the upgrade from .9 to 1.0, and the salts have nothing to do with database authentication (they’re for login cookies.)
So, you have something else going on I think.
That is weird how it tells you the database is out of date, but then cannot connect. I’m not sure why that is.

It’s a little more than necessary but looks like it should work
In reply to: Problems when installing bbpressAlso, the forums in BuddyPress are based on bbPress but they are not bbPress. If it’s BuddyPress specific, you might have better results getting support at the BuddyPress forums.
In reply to: Can’t get permalinks workingWhat sort of server are you running bbPress on?

In reply to: Guranteed Fix for WP/bbPress Integration!I think it’s probably a little over-reaching to say this is a guaranteed fix. There are so many other things that need to happen before integration works in every case. This may be one part of it, but I’d like to know why.
In reply to: Guranteed Fix for WP/bbPress Integration!Why does the integration need to use PHP5? Is there a function present in PHp5 that is not in PHP4 that makes this work? Or more likely a function that works differently in PHP5 (since a missing function would give an error.)
