In reply to: Cannot login to bbPress and WordPress
Those two versions do not integrate well without some extra work.

In reply to: Can’t change user infoWhat version WordPress did you integrate with, and what did you do to make sure the cookies work?

I don’t know anything about “dofollow” but I did find this sort of interesting:

In reply to: error getting URL: 404 – Not FoundNeed way more information here please. Where do you see this error, what is the error, what URL is being reported as 404? What versions of bbPress and WordPress (if you integrated)? Can you post a URL to your forum? Does everything but this work?
In reply to: BuddyPress Install – PHP ErrorLooks like a problem with the mu plugin “oci_bp_group_forums”? Have you tried disabling that to see what happens?
What versions of the software did you install?

In reply to: Display bbpress on wordpress page (inside the blog)@tannar, I will only share this with you if you post a link to your forum. I would like to see this working because many people have asked about it, and I’ve never seen it working.
From here: http://brondsema.net/blog/index.php/2007/06/06/100_height_iframe#c4631
Add this to the bottom of the page you are including in the iframe.
<script type="text/javascript">
parent.window.document.getElementById("youridnamehere").height = document.body.offsetHeight +50;
</script>You need to change youridnamehere to the id of the iframe in your wordpress page. So, if you did something like
<iframe src="whatever.php" id="bbpressforum" ... />you would change youridnamehere to bbpressforum because that’s the id of the iframe.Also, the +50 at the end just adds some space to the bottom (it’s probably in pixels I imagine.) You can try different numbers to be sure the forum fits in the frame. I can’t recall exactly what number I started out with there, but +50 worked for my application (not bbPress, BTW.)
Good luck.
In reply to: Can’t change user infoWhich 1.0 alpha are you using? There was an issue with this but I forget with what version.
This is the only thing recent I can find right now:

In reply to: Cannot login to bbPress and WordPressWhat versions did you integrate?
In reply to: *seamless* wordpress integrationThat is a very clear error message: the system cannot find the file you are trying to include in bbPress. You started the file path with /blog. which is an absolute path, starting at the root /. You will probably have more luck with this:
require_once( '/home1/endingho/public_html/blog/wp-blog-header.php' );The $bb->WP_BB = true; part I am unfamiliar with. But the error is indicating that you have the path wrong.
In reply to: Display bbpress on wordpress page (inside the blog)@tannar: you can make iframes appear without borders, if you like. You need this in the iframe tag:
frameborder="0"I have heard of a couple people trying it, but I have not yet seen it done. Can you post a link to this when you have it working? Thanks.
@RichBrown: If you want bbPress to *look* like your WordPress installation, you are going to need to use a bbPress theme that matches or approximates you WordPress theme. There are a couple of matching themes out there for bbPress and WordPress. What versions of bbPress and WordPress did you install?
The best way I know of right now to integrate the look of bbPress with the look WordPress is to create a theme for bbPress that looks like your WordPress theme. We’re spoiled with so many good themes for WordPress right now, and not so many for bbPress. We’re not used to creating themes; we’re used to installing themes (at least that has been my experience with WordPress.) bbPress is not quite there yet in terms of popularity and community support (i.e. themes and plugins.)
I don’t believe you can make bbPress live inside a WordPress page: bbPress is not a forum plugin for WordPress. And I have not yet seen the iframe hack work.
RichBrown, please start a new thread explaining your problem thoroughly. Please list the versions of bbPress and WordPress that you integrated.
Thank you.
In reply to: Can’t create topic after installAre you using the default theme? If not, try the default theme and see if you have the same error. Someone else posted this recently and I can’t recall what it turned out to be. Here are a couple relevant posts:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/problems-with-forum-is-category-in-10-alpha-6#post-25526
Also, why are you using alpha 4? I thought the basic integration screencast used alpha 6 and WordPress 2.7. There may be some bugs that were fixed between alpha 4 and alpha 6.
In reply to: Setting the default home pageLooks like you are using an Apache web server. If that’s the case, edit the .htaccess file in the root folder of the website, and make the index page for the site whatever you want. It might look like this is you want a static page
home.htmlto be the home page for the domain:DirectoryIndex home.html index.html index.phpThat says “look for a file called home.html first, and serve that if it’s present. If not, look for index.html next and then index.php.” It’s good to have at least two in there, so if the first one is not present, it can fall back on the second one.
If you host does not allow this override in the .htaccess, then you will need to do something different. This is the easiest way. Post your results after you try it.
In reply to: Hosting change: impossible to login or register.Cookie issues? Have you tried clearing all the cookies?
Also, there are probably places in the database that have references to file system paths and things like that (I know WordPress does this, for uploads for example.) Maybe there is something in the bbPress tables like that that is preventing it from working correctly?
What I usually do is search the tables for a string that was unique to my old host (a customer number or something else in the path that is unique) then once I find those records, I do a global search and replace on the whole string.
Maybe it’s something like that. I don’t think the database dump will just work straight-away on a new host without modification.
In reply to: Avatars/Gravatars & Version 1.0-alpha-6svn is short for “subversion” a version control system:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subversion_(software)
“The latest SVN” means checking out the latest version of the code using the software called
subversion. You can do that instead of downloading and unzipping, and it makes upgrades and modifications easier as well.In reply to: something happening on TalkPress.com_ck_ you beat me to posting it…

Yeah, I just saw/released a bunch from there too. Will check whenever I am visiting the forums.
In reply to: WMPU – BuddyPress – bbPress – XML-RPC Not workingSounds like port 111 (RPC) is disabled on your host. Have you tried contacting them?
In reply to: I NEED HELP!How about taking the latest topic RSS feed and using an RSS widget or plugin in WordPress to display those topics?
I think I saw another topic about the avatars so I will look for that rather than address this here.
0.9.0.4 is recommended for live sites.
In reply to: Hide LinksWhat version of bbPress are you using?
In reply to: How to get NICE NAME from poster_idIn reply to: I NEED HELP!1. To explain how to do this, we need to know what versions you installed.
2. https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/post-count-plus/
3. Depends on your version, I think. For the 0.9.0.4 version there are avatar plugins:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/tags/avatar
https://bbpress.org/plugins/tags/avatars
For the alpha version, I think avatars are built in.
4. https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/allow-images/ or https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/ if you want to store the images for the member as well.
5. Links are allowed by default. They’re auto-linked as well. Just type in http://www.example.com and it becomes a link (should work here.)

You can find all the answers you need by searching or browsing the forums here or the plugin repository. https://bbpress.org/plugins/
In reply to: Adding Legal Disclaimer to Login Page1. To add anything to the login page, just edit the login.php or login-form.php in your template folder. Since the login form is just a tiny space, you might just have a small text link there to a full disclaimer file.
2. Yes, with the 0.9.0.4 version and the latest WordPress (well, 2.7 anyway), you can use one of these two solutions:
