    Very nice! Stupid question….how did you get the header image to expand perfectly to the size of the window that is open. If I change the browser to smaller it still fits perfectly and wider as well…….?

    Trent

    Have you taken a look at this thread? As well, http://kaespace.com/bbpress/ doesn’t show up for me at all. Is that the correct address? As for the link just having “style.css” in the address, it is because it is referenced off the theme folder and not the root directory. I can’t access your site, so what is your theme as well? The default one?

    Trent

    Excellent Pravin! Thanks!

    Trent

    Just through plugins I think. I know mdawaffe is using more wordpress functions in bbPress and maybe there might be more things that would be considered tighter integration. The bbPress-Post plugin already has the comments of WP controlled by bbPress, so that is why I speculate that it will be done through plugins.

    The quicktags plugin should work automatically if you drop the plugin file and the JS file into your /my-plugins/ folder. That should bring up the buttons you requested. If it doesn’t, it might be a problem with it displaying in your theme. Quick way to test that is test it out on the default template and not your custom template.

    As for the translating, are you using the language files for your chosen language?

    In reply to: Maintenance Mode?

    No Maintenance Mode for bbPress. Could be a pretty simple plugin to write though. Any takers?

    I see now….the first topic and then reverse the order of the replies. Off the top of my head that would seem like a difficult thing to do as each reply is given an reply ID based off the previous reply ID (sequential). Displaying the order would have to be done by hacking the core files for topic.php so that is changes from desending to acending in the mySQL query. I think it can be done though, just have to look at the core code I guess.

    In reply to: bbpress future

    I know that you are frustrated cool2sv because WP and bbPress both use different AJAX, but it really only matters when you are doing what you are trying to do with running them both at the same time. Most users won’t be affected by this same problem you are having.

    I am not saying what the developers of bbPress has done is 100% the right direction with AJAX in the core, but it was designed to be standalone and work that way. The WP integration was with logins and not developed to have them sharing libs. I have passed this on to mdawaffe, but the redesign of bbPress and its use of AJAX in the core most likely won’t be the #1 priority. WP uses AJAX in the core and so does bbPress. So which one should be blame? Automattic developers like AJAX in the core!

    **Edit** As well, you could sent your request into the bbDevList as well. Just head over to the about page for the address!

    You cannot click a checkbox that says “turn off registration”, but you can do it indirectly through the following steps by editing your theme files. If you have the default template, please upload the changed files to a new folder off the root of /my-templates/

    1) Remove the following file out of your root directory, register.php.

    2) Edit your template file login-form.php and remove the following:

    <p><?php printf(__('<a href="%1$s">Register</a> or log in'), bb_get_option('uri').'register.php') ?>:</p>

    3) Put something like the following in register.php from your template folder:

    <?php bb_get_header(); ?>

    <h3 class="bbcrumb"><a href="<?php bb_option('uri'); ?>"><?php bb_option('name'); ?></a> &raquo; <?php _e('Register'); ?></h3>

    <h2 id="register"><?php _e('Registration Turned Off, Sorry!'); ?></h2>

    <?php bb_get_footer(); ?>

    Unless I am missing something, that should do it!

    I answered your other thread about this. There seems to be packages out there that automatically install all 3 components for you and to be quick (detailed explanation over other thread), no, bbPress and WP will never be a single install unless someone 3rd party does it (say a web host).

    Trent

    If you have a local computer with windows or a Mac, you can always have the install of WAMP or an install that is similar. Do a search for apache, php and mySQL local windows install in google and you will find that there are many packages out there that can run them on your local computer instead of IIS. Packages like WAMP have all the packages together and a walkthrough on getting them all installed.

    As for bbPress and WordPress installation together, I am involved with WP as well and can for sure tell you that they will never be packaged together for a single install unless someone makes their own release of the 2 packages together, but will not happen from Automattic because they are run completely seperate.

    Does that help?

    I have always liked your site so10! Nice work!

    In reply to: bozo

    If they are marked as a bozo in bbpress it is a 1 for sure. It will not affect the WPMU at all because it doesn’t look for the bozo info at all in the meta table. Should be fine!

    In reply to: WP-Ads

    I would think there is a script out there that will display ads in a portion of your topic template. You would have to find that script that does the rotation of your adverts and then just include it as a javascript or another type of script in your template.

    Trent

    What do you mean exactly? Topics have the most recent discussions in it first? Could you put in an example?

    Trent

    The plugin you are looking for is here:

    Isn’t that entire ‘forum’ based on just normal posts and then using the rating plugin from mdawaffe? It can be done on bbPress if I am understanding it correctly. Just have an install that has the ratings plugin and then a template to display the items on the first page that have the highest rating or the most votes. Am I missing something? (I easily could be)

    Trent

    This will be a problem on installs until 1.0 comes out as it seems to be fixed in TRAC now. I left a comment on this issue as well:

    Trent

    Just joking around really! I just have a habit of getting the basic install up and working the way people want and then try including WP content, changing themes, adding plugins, etc so they can track what they did when they see further problems (if any exist!). That is my funny way of saying ‘break things” afterwards :)

    **Edit**

    I tried to test out your forum again and the same error is still there. Let me know when you get that sorted out and I can try and work with you to get this working.

    Cheers,

    In reply to: Upgrade gone awry

    When you say “sorta”, what else is going on that we can try and get 100% for you! ?

    Trent

    Daddo,

    You have the following error on your forum right now:

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare is_tag() (previously declared in /home/.mardi/driftk27/driftkikker.com/wp-content/plugins/UltimateTagWarrior/ultimate-tag-warrior.php:117) in /home/.mardi/driftk27/forum.driftkikker.com/bb-includes/template-functions.php on line 251

    My suggestion would be to get the cookies and logins working with the default template and then break it with tring to include WP content like the UTW plugin ;)

    Trent

    In reply to: Non-english characters

    Hmm…..I am speakless. Anyone else have a clue on this one? You have the language file setup already, so maybe it is the encoding that your mySQL database is using?? Not really sure myself, sorry.

    Trent

    In reply to: Change username

    I was going to say that the easiest way is to create a second user using your keymaster account that you don’t want and make that new user a keymaster. Then login as the second keymaster and delete the original account. **Always do a database backup before ever attempting things like that***

    Trent

    That is a strange one isn’t it. Would it be helpful to add a little plugin to use paragraph?

    Trent

    That is the intended placement for the forums here as well as the other wordpress forums. It can be changed though! I would just edit style.css for this portion:

    /* Profile Page
    =================================== */

    #profile-menu {
    }

    #profile-menu li {
    font-size: 1.1em;
    background-color: #eee;
    padding: 4px 7px;
    display: inline;
    border-top: 3px single #9e9e9e;
    position: relative;
    top: -10px;
    }

    All I did there was take out the positioning for profile-menu itself so it displays inline and then changed the border of the list items themselves to have a single border on top instead of the double. You can edit that more to get it to look the way you want as well.

    That being said, I am leaving it as is because it is the closest to the ‘actual forum’ with the profile menu on the right hand side floating……but this will fix you up!
