Luc
yes it is !
PHP Version 4.4.8
Does BBpress 1.0 require Php 5 ?
Thanks
Luc
Hello,
I would be highly interested if your plug in works with 1.0 alpha and >.
BBcode and other ways are great for tech-savy people, but for a basic customer website, wysiwyg editor like tinyMCE is far simpler, natural and so on..

Any series of steps you do via phpmyadmin can be saved in sql code and made into a converter. Give me the sql commands and I’ll make you a script.
In fact I’m not by far enough PHP and sql fluently to use sql commands.
My SimplePress forum is rather young so I don’t have thousands of messages (274 in fact).
I proceed in a very manual way :
On my Mac / Firefox I have 4 tabs, the old forum, the BBPress forum, the Old forum phpmyadmin and BBpress php myadmin
I copy a message in the old forum, craete a new message in BBpress then correct in phpmyadmin the time poster id and so on.
Old forum :

BBpress 1.0 install

Its long but it works.

@J0hnD03
I’m in the same situation, using SimplePress and willing to switch.
I’m not willing to do so because of SimplePress problems (SimplePress is far more advanced than most forums scripts, BBPress included and far better integrated with WP than most forums BBPress included) but because it’s a single man project and the day he will decide to have a life it’s likely the project will be dropped…
Currently I’m converting things by hand (and with PhpMyAdmin) because I didn’t found any converter (and that’s normal, Simple Press is not very well known and would deserve better diffusion).
I would be interested by your experience in integrating BBpress in WP design.

Hello,
A naïve question :
I use another forum script and would like to prepare a migration to BBpress when BBpres is ready for real use
If i integrate BBpress alpha 1.0 with my WP 2.6 (check, learn, but don’t put it in use yet by my uers) am I at risk to break something in my WP install (tables ?)
So can I safely (for the WP part) integrate a BBpress alpha 1.0 with a WP 2.6 ?
Hello,
There is really no solution for that ?
It’s a pitty to have a WP companion forum and been unable to really use it….
Hello,
Another view on integration..
I’d love to use BBPress as a repository for WP coments (at least some of them).
When they are a lot of comments, WP is not very usage. FGor example I have a popular post with 141 comments ans loading the page takes a long time and cause errors to google ads. I’d love to use BBPress as a repository for that but I don’t know how import a thred of WP comments as a BBpress forum.

Hello earlgrey
The 06rc1 version seems to work very well
(note : line 21 $version=0.6rc1; must be replaced by $version='0.6rc1';)
The version number is still 051 in the xml file so it may be hardcoded somewhere in the code.
By the way the correct link is 0.6rc1
Hello earlgrey
This is exact, I don’t use permalinks (for some strage reason, they work fine on my wordpres install but no for my bbpress install both been in subdirectory of the same account.. strange..)
I didn’t make any change (the only one is the path to the xml file), perhaps I made a type when copy-pasting the content to the php file
The link to release 0.6rc1 seem broken
hello,

Hello,
Another thing.
It would be great to have bbpress CSS (DIV and others) named bb_mydivname, because curently the naming sheme interferes a lot with WP one (for example both can have a <div="header"> )
Hello,
I have a problem with a non engluish install.
The lang variable is WPLANG both in WP and bbpress (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/6?replies=29) so when the WP integration settings are set on in config.php, bbpress tranlastion doesn’t work anymore.
Any tip ?
Luc
Hello,
Great idea !!
It would be great to have a system that allow WP comments to be handled by bbpress in way that would be transparent (for example the number of comment been displayed under the WP post) and even (let’s dream) the x first comments available under the WP post (like it’s the case currently), with a link “read more.. ” directing to the whole number of comments in bbpress.
I don’t know if this is realistic but such a system associating a blog script and a forum script would be really fantastic (currently blog handling of comment is really poor from a user point of view).

hello,
Is there a place to send translated files for people who could need them ?
By the way, in the front page :
* no-replies
* untagged
* unresolved
Don’t seem to be gettexted
Luc
thanks aka and selad, it works !!!
selad
The problem is (perhaps) there is no variable in config.php to indicate the language file to be taken in acount (as it is the case for wordpress)
hello,
Please, where could I find the mo file to translate (in French in my xase) and where must i place it on the bbpress install ?
Thanks
