In reply to: Moving posts to catagories is disabled
So how do I create sub-forums?
In reply to: WordPress and bbpress handshake after moveI did everything I thought I should do.. Still, it does not seem that when a blog is made there is an automatic form addition. Isn’t that how this is supposed to work? It seems it is just cookie settings and sharing user ID and passwords
In reply to: WordPress and bbpress handshake after moveIn the FORUM dashboard, I found under settings, “WordPress Integration”
In reply to: WordPress and bbpress handshake after move(continued)
Making a new Blog post does not create a new forum topic. Shouldn’t it?
Creating a new catagory in the Blog does not create a new forum group in the bbpress forum. Shouldn’t it?
It seems that the users are sync’ed. I mean if someone logs on to the blog, their user ID works on the forum.
How do I further link up the Blog and the Forum.
In reply to: Linking to WordPressI went the PHP route.
At the top of register.php I put this code:
<?php
header( ‘Location: http://www.arguemax.com/wordpress-2.9.2/wordpress/wp-login.php?action=register’ ) ;
and it works.
In reply to: Linking to WordPressWhile I try several combinations of this I thought I would throw this out for consideration.
PHP is not like HTML. PHP generates HTML or browser code on the server and spits it out onto the browser on the client side. I am just thinking now that maybe you cannot use this method of redirection because the functionality is overwritten. I am just asking. Has anyone tried this redirection method with PHP before?
As I type this, I am deleting the browser histrory/memory to see if that helps because so far this method does not redirect anything.
In reply to: Linking to WordPressoh.
That is pretty clever. I like that. I think I will use this technique. Now I just need to refresh my memory on how to code .htaccess
I have created the file, .htaccess and I included the lines
Code:RewriteRule ^bb-login.php http://www.arguemax.com/wordpress-2.9.2/wordpress/wp-login.php [L,R=301]
RewriteRule ^register.php http://www.arguemax.com/wordpress-2.9.2/wordpress/wp-login.php?action=register [L,R=301]And I gave it a shot, but it did not work. Is there something I need to do such as make the file a certain type or read/write privledge?
In reply to: How do I install a bbPress theme?Awesome! (that worked)
Now, do I need to change the permissions back?
And inside my my-templates folder, I have just one folder for all the files from my theme (inove). So, yes, there is one folder with all my theme files inside it? And yes, I have a style.css and the theme name is in the header like this:
Theme Name: iNove
Anyway, it works now. Thanks. Changing the permissions did the trick.
In reply to: forum_idI figured this out.
I found that if you go to the dashboard and mouse over the edit option for a post, the ID appears on the status bar at the bottom of the window.
In reply to: Newbee (don't laugh at stupid question)I created the “my-templates” directory and I unzipped my theme into a folder in that directory. But when I go to my bbPress dashboard, the screenshot for my new theme shows a blank space with a red X in the upper left corner. When I click to “Activate” the theme it shows a featureless version of bbPress with no theme at all.
What am I doing wrong?
I put in something for the Secret Key but it says “Error! Not equal secret keys in WordPress and bbPress”.
Why and how do I fix this? I am on the WordPress side doing bbPress syncronization. Do I need to go to
the bbPress side and put the same Secret Key somewhere?
Ah Ha!!
I just got the bbPress url working!! (happy emoticon here) It is good to see it say
bbPress url Everything is ok!
It is a little tricky. The trick is that the plugin php for bbpress and for wordpress have different file names and you do NOT use the exact same zip file for both plug ins.
Now I just need to know what the secret key in wordpress and bbpress is and where to find it. This is the new error.
Does the plug in work?
My problem is that after “URL is incorrect or connection error, please verify it (full variant): ” it has a url address to a file that is mixed up. How do I clear it out? And no matter what I put in the field for the the bbPress url, it does not change it.
Is this thing, this setting or server feature, called “php-curl “?
This is also called “PHP Client URL Library” and my web site hosting provider says they support this and it is ready to use on my website.
Very good tip.
That worked. I am so close to having this working that I can almost taste it.
I am able to go into the admin panel, (“Dash Board”) of the BBPress now. I have also read the bbPress Plug in folder’s readme file:
This directory is reserved for plugins distributed with the bbPress core package.
If you wish to install more plugins, you should create a new directory called “my-plugins” in the base directory of your bbPress installation and
install them there, not here.
That is good to know.
I did this and I went to the admin panel
It worked
“WordPress-bbPress syncronization” plugin activated
So the bbPress seems to be all ready to haved this going.
Now, I went back to the WordPress Dashboard and pulled up the page for the setup of the plugin on that end.
The only problem I have now is what to give for the bbPress Url. It does not like what I have given for this so for.
bbPress url URL is incorrect or connection error, please verify it (full variant):
I have tried a few things. Nothing has worked. Please advise. Thanks for your help so far.
