I did not get them working together and using bbSync. I have looked at the examples mentioned in other threads but I have not found any webbsite where the posts in the blog have generated a new comment in the forum. Are there any such examples? It seems to me that all of them have links back and forth but where is bbSync used? And using another language than English seems to have given problems to many more than me.

I really liked the idea of generating forum posts from a blog which would give a more equal discussion than comments to a blog. But where can I find a working example in a non-English language?

I inserted your code:

Code:

include_once(BBPATH . BBINC . ‘streams.php’);
include_once(BBPATH . BBINC . ‘gettext.php’);

in ‘bb-settings.php’ but it did not quite work. My blog http://www.goranlin.se/blogg/wordpress/ is slower and website adm disappeared. And my forum http://www.goranlin.se/blogg/wordpress/bbpress/

still do not show the posts from the blog which was planned. I use bbSync to try to get that, but no success so far.

I seems to have the same problem. I get

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class streamreader in /mnt/home/_g/goranlin/www.goranlin.se/blogg/wordpress/bbpress/bb-includes/streams.php on line 26

I want both wp and bbpress to be translate so maybe I can put your code into ‘bb-settings.php’. Would that work?

[Göran]

Thanks for help. I am moving forward. I deleted both WP and bbPress and started again and made progress. The blog and the forum are integrated but I cannot get bbSync to work. Both work by temselves and I can log in with same id and password but cannot get posts into forum.

Installation:

Blog at http://www.goranlin.se/blogg/wordpress/

Forum at http://www.goranlin.se/blogg/wordpress/bbpress/

WordPress 2.3.2 installed 22 january 2008

theme WordPress Default 1.6 changed colors in head with panel

bbPress 0.8.3.1 installed 22 january 2008

sv_SE.mo for WP installed 22 january 2008

sv_SE.mo for bbPress installed 22 january 2008

bbSync version 0.94 installed 22 january 2008

bbSync gave message “It needs your config!“

I did that! succesfully I thought.

But when trying to write new post in blog:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class streamreader in /mnt/home/_g/goranlin/www.goranlin.se/blogg/wordpress/bbpress/bb-includes/streams.php on line 26

but going back to blog the new post is there but still not in Forum

line 24-26 in streams.php is:

// Simple class to wrap file streams, string streams, etc.

// seek is essential, and it should be byte stream

class StreamReader {

// should return a string [FIXME: perhaps return array of bytes?]

function read($bytes) {

return false;

I have no clue how to do anything about this! All help is welcome!

Dear fel46 I have just seen that you have created bbsync so you seems very compentent to answer my elementary questions! I suspect all the answers are somewhere in the support pages for wp and bbpress but it is not easy to put all the pieces together and find out what to do.

[Göran]

Thank you for your answer. Localization demands that there is a translated .mo-file for the theme to work, does it not?

I like the WP-K2beta2 theme but I am unsure how to change color scheme. Some wp-themes are easier to change color for than others I think, is that correct?

I think what I want to achieve can be done with the wp plugin bbsync but wp and bbpress are supposed to be integrated for that and I do not know how to do that. Is it a good start to first create a folder called blog and place wp in there and them create a new folder within that called bbpress and place bbpress in there?

All suggestion and advice are most welcome, this is my first attempts with WordPress and bbPress.

[Göran]

Thank you sambauers! It works now.

I have started a forum at http://www.goranlin.se/bbpress/

I created a folder in the bb-includes folder and called it languages. In it I placed the file sv_SE.mo (for Swedish) and changed the config.php to

define(‘BBLANG’, ‘sv_SV’);

But the forum is still in English, what did I do wrong? Please, help!
