Got it: https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1399

Plus raised a couple more that i came across while doing this, so they might be related.

[Rich Pedley]

I’ll be looking at this later on, but initial tests seem to indicate it isn’t working.

[Rich Pedley]

excellent. I’ll wait for a few more things to be added before I code my extension to it then

[Rich Pedley]

Has any thought gone into integrating the existing akismet plugin to work with this? And should that functionality be in core if it possible?

is in the header, but it can’t find the file(404). So double check it really is there.

where did you download the plugin from?

[Rich Pedley]

I lot of the administrative features aren’t active/coded yet, so I think they have a higher priority atm. (ie: Edit | Trash | Close | Sticky | Move Links).

The importer will happen, but I personally think the plugin needs to be virtually complete before it gets written. (I could of course be wrong).

[Rich Pedley]

Reset theme to twentyten, then reactivate the bbPress theme. then reset your permalinks – that should set it up – as in it did for me in 3.1 and 3.0.2

I’ve updated that ticket.

[Rich Pedley]

ahh that’s a thought, I’m running 3.1 as well… I’ll test in 3.0.2

[Rich Pedley]

Is this locally? I have the same issue, but on my webhosts it works fine

eg. http://wordpress.elfden.co.uk/user/admin/

oh and relevant trac ticket: https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1391

[Rich Pedley]

sounds good, will play later.

open up plugins/bbpress/bbpress.php do you see:

/**

* Plugin URI: http://bbpress.org

* Description: bbPress is forum software with a twist from the creators of WordPress.

http://wordpress.elfden.co.uk/forum/ updated – everything cleaned out for everyone to start playing again.

[Rich Pedley]

how did you try to activate if it doesn’t appear in your list of plugins?

[Rich Pedley]

nah trashing is fine by me – I’ll get that done in the next day or so and update.

[Rich Pedley]

are saying it is better to flush the database before installing the new version?

[Rich Pedley]

Well first off keep an eye on https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-plugin-updates/ where details of what is happening with regard to the plugin is being posted.

If you need a live forum now, then go standalone, if you can wait a few months – then the plugin may be ready for use.

Spam is a regular thing with <string>all forums, so i don’t believe bbPress has been targetted at all. Plus akismet will be available as a plugin.

But with regard to that I intend to port over my sole plugin for bbpress standalone, to bbPress plugin – a way of marking individual users as trustworthy, ie they don’t need to go through the akismet check.

Plus if I’m able to I plan on adapting a plugin I developed elsewhere that adds in additional restrictions for guests/new members[1]. I’ll start work on that as soon as I feel that bbPress is fairly settled – no point doing it to early as things might change.

[1] restrictions include length of post, number of links etc.

It may be just that at the moment, but check the trac tickets, and if there isn’t one mentioning it then feel free to start one.

re anonymous posting, please be aware of this:

https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1377

No validation is done.

additionally the while point of a filter is to allow you to change without editing core plugin files.

LwEEs – child theme…

and you could always copy the content of functions.php to your existing one.

[Rich Pedley]

It’s fairly easy to do

check the style.css in the included twentyten child theme and you’ll see this:

/**

* Theme Name: bbPress - Twenty Ten

* Theme URI: http://bbpress.org

* Description: Adds bbPress forums to Twenty Ten theme

* Author: The bbPress Community

* Version: 0.1

* Template: twentyten

* Tags: bbpress, black, blue, white, two-columns, fixed-width, custom-header, custom-background, threaded-comments, sticky-post, translation-ready, microformats, rtl-language-support, editor-style

*/

The template denotes another available theme that you are making this the child of. If you include the main style sheet, you don’t need to re-reference everything. eg. @import url("../twentyten/style.css");

So create a new theme directory by including that, and copy all the other files(ie not style.css) from plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten (not forgetting to rename the Theme name)

However you might want to copy in the default style, this start’s with:

/* bbPress Style

*/

Then you need to check where the get_header(), get_sidebar() & get_footer() are in your parent theme.

If they are in this order:

get_header();

/* Content */

get_sidebar();

get_footer();

you don’t have to do anything.

However if they are in a different order you may need to adjust, currently they reside in the following files:

page-bbp_form.php

author.php

taxonomy-bbp_topic.php

single-bbp_topic.php

single-bbp_reply.php

single-bbp_forum.php

page-bbp_topics.php

page-bbp_front.php

and I think that is all that’s needed! (untested though)
