In reply to: bbPress Integration plugin for WPMU
@johnjamesjacoby – where does this bit of info come from:
$bb->bb_xmlrpc_allow_user_switching = true;I’ve never installed WMPU or BuddyPress, so maybe it’s in the instructions or a config file already, but I’ve seen it referred to here a couple times and wonder where it comes from. Thanks.
What plugin are you using to provide bbcode, and what version of bbPress are you using, and with what theme?
In reply to: About language files (current -> beta-rc-2)I would say they are completely different. You can download them for yourself from here:
http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/pot/tags/
Then compare.
In reply to: Display latest posts on other pageCouldn’t you just take the latest posts RSS feed and use that in your other page?
In reply to: Change registration detailsAhh. You want to extend the registration form then.
This plugins do something similar, maybe you could use one as a starting point?

Also, there has been some discussion recently in these forums of just how to do this, but I can’t find it right now.
In reply to: Using bbpress forum content within a wordpress pagepbarry4 – please post what you’re looking to do exactly. Since this post was made other posts have been made that explain how to do this as well.
In reply to: Change registration detailsThe member can do it from their profile page, or as keymaster you can log in and edit their profile for them. As keymaster just click on the user’s title (normally “Member”) and in their profile there is an “Edit” tab or button. That will allow the keymaster to edit a member’s profile. A user can click on their own name at the top of the page and be brought to that same profile page, and there is an edit tab there for them as well (I think it’s the middle of three tabs, on the top right.) Post back if that resolves the problem for you.
In reply to: Redirect Loop after installationamit1234 please start a new topic for your problem. thank you.
In reply to: Forum could not be created!No the prefixes should NOT be the same for integration. Use a different table prefix for bbPress tables, and when it comes to integration, the installer asks for your WordPress table prefix so it can use those tables for user data only.
Start a new topic for your new problem please.
In reply to: Forum could not be created!The original fix was to add the bogus data after the apparently ‘failed’ installation, then your forums would be usable. Is that not the case?
Also, you used the SAME table prefix for both WPMU and bbPress? I don’t think that’s normally a good thing. I think bbPress would overwrite some WP tables in that case.
I don’t believe bbPress uses sessions at all.
In reply to: Forum could not be created!The installation should be done first, then you add the dummy data to the table, not the other way around.
What versions did you integrate?
You’re using this on a local machine, but you have members using it who would require a password email?
You might want to use this plugin to be able to send email using an external SMTP server:
I’d like to see a howto for this, if it exists. I haven’t seen one yet and I continue to see questions here about WPMU integration with bbPress. Thanks.
In reply to: Adding sign-up user preferences?I thought there was an “extended profile” plugin as well but I can’t find it right now.
In reply to: Pretty Permalinks (once again…)It appears your domain is hosted at 1&1 Internet. If so, you might need to add this to the
top of your .htaccess file:
Options -MultiViewsI have domains with 1&1 and I needed to do that to make the rewrite rules work for me.
I think EasyPHP is for Windows, so I think you will need an SMTP mailer for Windows. I don’t have any first hand experience with those, but I have heard about a couple:

Also, instead of mailing the password you could just display it with the Instant Password plugin:
In reply to: Fatal ErrorThe
bbpressdirectory does not go inside the WordPresspluginsdirectory. You probably want it here/home/ironogre/public_html/worldsworkshop/bbpress/and you will access it at http://www.worldsworkshop.com/bbpress/ . See if that works for you. Also, you can rename the bbpress directory to something else, like forums or community or something. That part of the URL is visible to the public, so make it meaningful to you.In reply to: Good grief this is ridiculous! (URLs)How about posting it as HTML not bbCode, if it’s just you?
In reply to: the “-1 years” thing as an occasional problemThat’s why I asked if the database was on a different machine. I could imagine a situation where the time on the two machines is off, or if there were network traffic, which seems like it could cause something like this. But if the database and web server are the same machine, I am out of ideas right now.
In reply to: Confused about HTML Meta tags & SEOI see, sorry. Reading the original more carefully now I see what you mean. It puts *only* the keywords from the admin screen into the meta tag, nothing from the specific topic or post. What URL are you talking about (since the case handles different types of pages differently)?
In reply to: Good grief this is ridiculous! (URLs)If it’s just you doing it and never a member, how about the “admin can post anything plugin”?
In reply to: Good grief this is ridiculous! (URLs)They don’t do anything because they don’t go anywhere. Take a look at the source (from the page you linked):
Get it at <a >http://www.google.co.uk/chrome.</a>Looks like your regex is stripping out the link altogether.
In reply to: Good grief this is ridiculous! (URLs)So you want links that are in replied to open in a _blank window? Just certain ones, or every one automatically? This would make any link posted in a reply open in a new windows (i.e. adds
target="blank"to any link)”https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/open-links-in-new-window#post-15587
