Hi Kevin,

Are you aware of any plugin for bbPress that forces all registration through a local WordPress install? I can’t seem to find it through google etc.

If not, if I search (through NetBeans / Eclipse + PID) for all strings of bb-login.php or register.php will I find them all?

Or is the easiest way to simply change the header to not show the defualt Login + Register form, and forward people onto the wordpress pages?

Thanks,

Tomek

Thanks _ck_. Changinn it to _http-mode.php made it “Autoload” (or something like it), so SSL now works for admin!

@chrishajer yep, I honestly didn’t think it would be a problem. Guess I learned my lesson ! Thanks for those links, that’s much easier than searching.

I’ll look to see if a similar bug has been filed first.

hi _ck_,

I’m trying to use your fix https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/https-with-bbpress-login#post-23667 + your code above, but get the following error when I try to activate the plugin:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare bb_validate_auth_cookie() (previously declared in <path to bbPress>/bb-includes/functions.bb-pluggable.php:142) in <path to bbPress>/my-plugins/https-mode.php on line 22

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Finally realized to check something. When going through http://, everything works. When going through https://, nothing works. I can reproduce this simply by changing the bb_meta table entry “URI” between “https://” and “http://”.

That’s a problem! Is there a place to file a bug?

For example, are there any debugging options to a log I can turn on? My cPanel error logs etc. don’t show anything out of the ordinary.

Ok, after reinstalling manually (I was using softaculous before), manual integration with wp, reinstallling again without integration, etc., still nothing works.

I’ve also tried installing in a folder that doesn’t have a wordpress install, just to see. Still the same. Every time, without fail, it tries to find a path such as, if installed in “forums”, it finds “forums/forums”. If installed in “sub/forums”, it finds “sub/forums/sub/forums”.

Where is the issue? I’m getting a little bit frustrated with ‘fresh-out-of-the-box’ software not working!? I appreciate open-source software, and would love to solve this bug for others as well, but I need help finding it first!

Just to add, I can see in firebug that clicking on the “Admin” sends a get request to the correct url, but the content length returned is 0 and the header returned is 302 (url found) not something like 200.

Kinda odd, I would think.

I’m having a similar problem. I’ve turned off all rewriting that I could find to no avail. This happens to me as well the very first time I log in after setting things up, no changes to admin or anything.

My install is two folders down /tomek/forums.

Interestingly, I tried in another browser, going to /bb-admin/index.php manually. This redirected me to the login page as expected. I logged in, and bbPress forwards me to /tomek/forums/tomek/forums/bb-admin/index.php. This, obviously doesn’t exist, and would seem to indicate a trailing or starting slash is missing somewhere, but it can’t be a redirect problem — I’ve turned all those off.

Any idea where to start looking?

Thanks,

Tomek
