You are more than welcome!

The cookies part can be daunting in the beginning to add, but once you figure it out, it is not so bad. Sometimes placing in the cookie path isn’t enough and you have to add the locations of the cookies and the names. Let me give you some examples:
My blog is in a couple different folders so I use this:
$bb->usercookie = 'wordpressuser';
$bb->passcookie = 'wordpresspass';
$bb->cookiedomain = '.onvertigo.com';
$bb->cookiepath = '/';

In my mind, tags enable the discussion to a much larger scale and is best employed when the number of topics is extremely large (such as this forum or wordpress.org support). It allows people to group topics by the things that are important to them but still in a predefined category (or forum). While they may be talking about quite a few things (that would be picked up in a search), tags allow the users to define what was important to them. A ‘Coles Notes’ of their topic…so to speak.
I have had some great discussions on the benefits and cons of tags with my wife (as she prefers just categories) and I like the scalability of tags. Either way, with both employed we all win. It is a matter of opinion!

I would request that from the author in that plugin post that you referenced above. I would imagine that it wouldn’t be too hard to change the code if you know how the plugin works!
Trent
Currently annoynmous posting isn’t in the cards, but maybe a plugin will surface now that in the next version to be released, the login code is pluggable….
Trent
Will take note of that. Thanks for the feedback!
Trent
It seems it isn’t finding the file…..try:
require_once
('/home/lumanati/www/blog/wp-blog-header.php');
that or:
require_once
('home/lumanati/www/blog/wp-blog-header.php');

It is pretty simple to just copy the bbPress tables into the WordPress database. If you use a mySQL export script, it will actually create the tables syntax and install it perferctly! It is way easier on many integration plugins (not just this one) when they are in the same database!
Trent
Couple of things. I would try the first line with an absolute server path. Something like:
require_once
('www/blog/wp-blog-header.php'); ?>
As well, I am sure you have an Akismet number, but if not, best to put it as:
$bb->akismet_key = false;

Another call to all the template authors. With 0.8 coming out right away, you might want to take a look at the new way that templates are going to be called. You have to make sure your theme information is included in the style.css (check top of default template style.css for info).
As well, themes will have their own folder in the my-templates/ folder. So, /my-templates/theme-name/ ! It still only needs the changed files in there, but you can check out the Themes Documentation for more information!
The last real thing you might want to do is take a snapshot of your template for the admin area. After you have the snapshot, it is best to create it in PNG format and call it screenshot.png
Just a heads up! It will be wicked!

Ironically, there is a post with the “notification” tag for a plugin that does what you want. Read through this thread on the notification plugin as this plugin will notify you of a reply and there is even a thread for an alteration of the plugin that makes it send out a reply for every single post that is replied to!
Trent
This will be a big issue for quite a few people I think. In fact, there has been 2 occurances that I could have used an export function and frankly, the wordpress XML format would be my preference!
Trent
Great things coming as mdawaffe is doing some pretty major changes to the entire issue of TIME in bbPress.
Trent
I don’t have many that make it through Akismet for not being marked as BOZO, just the fact that BOZO or not they are pulled over to WordPress through the integration plugin. Soon enough we will fix this!
Trent
I think the plugin is designed to work when you have both wordpress and bbPress in the same database. You are using 2 different databases I would imagine then? If that is the case, then this plugin will not work for you.
Trent
The 1 makes you a bozo. I would just delete that entry in there completely so that you are no longer a bozo. There isn’t a way to disable it without changing core files unfortunetely.
Trent
I will test this out for sure and get back to you later on when I get a chance! Looks good so far! Just need to test out the new features!
Trent
It is now listed in Pro Forum for the rest of the people to see as well!

There have been many discussions on this topic (most started by me) about finding a solution to use akismet or something to stop the registration spam in bbPress. While there are no solutions availabe right now, there are several TRAC tickets at http://trac.bbpress.org about this issue for future development.
In the meantime, you can either disable the registration, install the MemberList plugin from Ardentfrost (gives easy admin interface to delete users quickly) or maybe search forums for another solution. I know that I use the MemberList plugin to delete users quickly, but also delete all the BOZO users as well.
I would agree that the registration spam issue will have to be dealt this soon as a standard release feature.
Trent
Sorry, wrong location. Search database bb_usermeta table for is_bozo and you will find your bozo information in there. If you are integrated with WordPress, it will be the wp_usermeta table (as in my case). Here is an example of one of the entries in the database for a bozo:
umeta_id user_id meta_key meta_value
696 106 is_bozo b:1;
Trent
I have a fresh install of 0.75 and the latest TRAC version and I can’t replicate this. Anyone else having this problem?
Trent
If you are a BOZO, you will be listed in the bozo section of users in the admin. That is where you go to check it. There is a checkbox once you edit the users profile to check them as a bozo on or off.
As well, if you get stuck, you can do a search in your database. Bozo users will show up in the bb_metauser table.
Trent
There is a plugin “Posts Since Last Visit” based on the “Online” plugin. Not sure of the URL’s as I am on my mobile phone, but do a search for it!
