Sadly, by the time you get to the registration template, the user has already been added.
You could write a plugin that, during the bb_init hook, checks to see if $_SERVER matches the registration link and, if so, send a header(“Location: http://blah.blah/my-reg.php”).
Can you tell us what version of PHP, what webserver (apache, IIS, …) and version?
Can you provide a link to your site?
I really want to know wy this works in PHP5 but not PHP4.
This needs to get fixed at the source.
startribe (or anyone who has seen this problem): Can you de me a favor? Unfix the problem, then add $bb->debug = 1; on the first line of bbPress’ config.php file.
Go to the tags page, and you should see some ugly text at the top of the screen. Can you paste that text here?
Thanks!
That bug and some of these oddities should be fixed in the upcoming bbPress 0.80.
Thanks!
Did you find the source of the problem? Even better, did you find a solution? 
In the upcoming bbPress 0.80, you’ll be able to set $bb->edit_lock = -1 to achieve this.
I asked about a .htaccess file in your templates directory, because in earlier versions we provided one that broke some people’s setups. We’ve removed it in later versions; you should not have a .htaccess file in any of your template directories.
bbPress should not need PHP5. I’d like to find the cause of this problem and fix it for good for everyone.
What version of bbPress are you using?
Do you have a .htaccess file in bbPress’ bb-templates/ directory?
Try
$topics = bb_top_topics();
as your first line.
bbpress.org/plugins has RSS feeds.
Probably not. There’s a lot of custom code talking to two different servers via http, cron jobs, svn actions and a dozen other things.
It’s not terribly well abstracted for use on arbitrary sites. To be honest, it’s a little spaghetti
My plan was for bbpress.org/plugins to be open by this past Friday. It will open tomorrow (Monday Jan 8th).
The speed difference is negligable.
I would always use bb_get_option() so that a “power-user” can softcode the option value into the $bb variable if they want to avoid the extra database hits. bb_get_option_from_db() is mostly useful when you want to override data that has been softcoded (which probably isn’t very often).
PS: bb_get_option() is the function, ‘bb_get_option_{blah}’ is the filter.
bb_get_option( ‘my_option’ ) grabs the value for my_option and filters it through anything you’ve defined in the ‘bb_get_option_my_option’ filter. The filter is probably pretty useless for data that plugins store since you probably won’t have to modify on the fly the data that you provided in the first place.
The filter may be useful for data the core bbPress provides (you might want to filter ‘bb_get_option_page_topics’, for example, so that whenever bbPress core calls bb_get_option( ‘page_topics’ ), you can modify the returned value on the fly).
Here’s some info: https://bbpress.org/blog/2007/01/bbpress-options-api/
You shouldn’t access the data from the tables directly. It’s possible that at some point we’ll change where the data is stored, so use the API
This will be fixed in the next release (.80).

I’m not sure, but it looks like a bad .mo file. The Plural-Forms line of the .po file should end with a semicolon (
.
What browser are you using? Does the same thing happen in every browser?
Do you have any firewall or proxy servers set up?
MultiViews may be set up, but it may not be configured to recognize php files.
You should either contact your host or switch to the RewriteRules method.
What about it doesn’t work? Do you get an error?
Can you log in with other browsers?
Did you install that pluign in bbPress’ my-plugins folder?
What is your Display name set to? (In your WordPress profile)
This is a really nice idea. I’ll work on getting some convenience functions written for the next “major” release.
I haven’t seen this WP LDAP plugin, but the answer is probably “no”.
A similar plugin would likely have to be written for bbPress.
I’m working on a bbPress exporter now. It will probably be included in the next “major” release.
I hadn’t thought about an importer from bb to WP, but I’ll see what’s possible.
