Facebook Connect would both be awesome.
Heck, what about Twitter Connect and IntenseDebate Connect as well?
johnhiler is correct. 1.1 has not been released yet.
@chrishajer, no database upgrade is needed.
anandasama, you are my hero! Thanks…this one works!!!
AWESOME! You the man, Sam.
johnhiler, you have been most helpful. How exactly would you recommend one do this?
Would one simply point each separate bbPress installation to the same MYSQL table during initial setup?
Is there any danger in one site overwriting another with this sort of setup?
Dang. So for bbPress 1.0+ you must go WPMU, huh?
Not sure if its just me but there creates an error.
Thanks Rohan. Here’s the thing, I don’t want separate blogs for each of the bbPress sites, just different domains with bbPress installs on each. Would this be possible via WPMU & bbPress?
Thanks for your help, Detective. How would I implement your code with:
<td class="num"><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td>
Which is in Forum.php and Front-Page.php
Hmm, this doesn’t seem to work. Anyone else have any ideas?
Hmmm…Have 2 idea to help (not sure what the issue is and am new at this)
1) change the bar width from “width: 800px;” to maybe “width: 900px;” and see if it extends to where you want.
2) If that does nothing (it might not) you want to try and stick the
<?php include('andybar.php');?>
for the bar DIRECTLY below where your “Origin Euphoria” banner” is in the WordPress theme header (assuming its not there already).
Since that part of your WordPress CSS lets stuff go all the way to the border on each side the bar should expand and fit perfectly. (Maybe Its not the navbar css but the WordPress theme css preventing it to go all the way across.
@andywilliams244 Try this for a nifty nav bar that shows at the very top of your site (maybe use this at the very top of both your WordPress and bbPress site?):
1) Check this link out: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic55647.html
2) What you want to do is make a really simple PHP file, lets call it “andybar.php” (if you have trouble making one copy one of your .php bbpress files and rename it)
3) Copy the code from that page into the php file. (you probably want to open with Notepad or Wordpad)
4) Fill in the links how you want them to be, like:
<li><a href="http://www.andywebsite.com">ANDY_WEBSITE</a></li>
5) Save the php file and upload it into the folder of your theme.
6) Put this in the header where you want the bar to display:
<?php bb_head(); ?>
<?php include('andybar.php');?>
<br>
</head>
7) The bar should appear at the very top of your bbPress site. You can easily change the colors with the CSS inside that one php file.
You might need to play with the bbPress CSS if there is a spacing issue above or below the bar. Hope this helps!
Haha, I so thought this was a spam post as first glance. Site looks great.
OMG, it must be frustrating to be mistaken as a BOZO.
@_ck_: That would be awesome!
@johnhiler: Thanks for your insights. Before this thread I was not sure if I my theme’s moderation system was simply not working right…looks like it is! My only major beef with bbPress is moderation interface.
1) Don’t like that you can’t permanently delete a post. (Let’s say there is a duplicate…it is pointless for the duplicate to remain in the system, want it deleted completely so I don’t confuse myself when I see it on the “Recently Moderated Items” of the dashboard!)
2) Anyone else have problems where bbPress flags a new poster (maybe they use naughty stuff in their name or profile descriptions) and makes them a bozo but you unfortunately don’t notice that bbPress flagged them for a couple days? Wish there was a better notification system for this (no one wants to lose potential users who are frustrated by their material not showing up)
Just curious, why aren’t deleted posts permanently removed from the database?
Does WordPress permanently remove posts one deletes from the database?
Works like a charm. Thanks Ohna.
Loving the addition of Voices into the core. Just figured out how to display them 
I love the Facebook Connect idea. How about this too: An “IntenseDebate Connect” option as well (user can signin using their IntenseDebate User name and password.
Since Automattic are behind both IntenseDebate and bbPress I’m guessing it would be easier to implement than Facebook Connect.
So the solution is replacing the theme’s “topic-tag.php” with kakumei’s? That’s it?
Ohna, you using one of these themes? (http://www.refueled.net/free-bbpress-themes/)
@Michael3185 meant Sam giving his two sense to the Gravatar selection direction idea. It’s cool to get his take since he is Mr. bbPress.
This is wonderful. It was such a shame to hear the old page was taken down.
Thanks for taking the time to weigh in Sam.
Sounds like a plugin with ‘Edit Profile Page’ directions on how to get a Gravtar and would be helpful to the community. I will try and figure out how to make one.
@Jason_JM: Buddypress? No way, that’s overkill and misses my point. Gravatars are built into the bbPress (its part of the CORE). If Gravatars are turned on and someone tries to edit their profile (think newbie who wants to pick their picture) it makes sense for there to be information re: where they can get one. Hyperlinked note directing them to Gravatar.com. Blam. Done.
Best of all, no one will ever need to use avatar uploading plugins ever again. It would solve so many problems.
@Marcomail: if they uploaded the same avatar via a WordPress avatar uploading program and bbPress avatar uploading program, sure why not?
