Just installed the latest version of the bbPress plugin.

Activated the default twentyten child theme.

I can see Settings -> Forums, but I can’t find the admin screen to create and manage forums.

I’m using WordPress 3.2-beta with no other plugins installed.

Halp?

The docs are just static WordPress pages for now. We’ll switch it eventually.

@Cor – What theme are you using? Those appear to be WordPress core errors, and I’m not immediately sure how bbPress would cause those to happen.

[John James Jacoby]

Yes, you’ll want to make them as WordPress plugins that specifically hook into bbPress actions and filters.

There are tons of places where things can be overridden, and it shouldn’t take long to learn the hierarchy. Everything inside the php files is documented pretty well, and eventually that will get moved over to this site with a codex.

This is slightly guesswork, but based on my understanding of the code.

(1) You should write your bbPress plugin as if it’s a WordPress plugin.

(2) Searching the bbPress folder for do_action will give you all the bbPress hooks, and searching for apply_filters will give you the list of filters (there are a LOT of them). Learning the important functions is trickier – they seem fairly spread out around the code amongst the less important functions. For that, I guess we’ll need to wait for documentation.

Hello,

Not entirely sure if this would be the best topic to post this, but running WordPress in debug mode, I’m getting quite a few non-object notices.

Soon you will be able to translate the plugin using GlotPress at https://translate.wordpress.org/projects

Hi

I’m going to look at adding a feature to bbPress (WP plugin version) and have a couple of questions.

1) Should my plugin live in /webroot/wp-content/plugins (same level as bbPress folder)? If so what differentiates this from being a WordPress plugin (or should I not worry about making this distinction?)

2) The ‘customization’ page refers to a plugin API – what’s the best way to learn this? (any particular bbPress developer reference guides or documentation I should know about?)

Obviously early days with the new version, just want to make sure I’m not missing anything.

Cheers

Ben

bbPress 2.0 beta 1 is now available in WordPress extend for public testing.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress/

[John James Jacoby]

Where can I download it?

1. Your WordPress admin area

2. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress/

Where do I report bugs?

1. http://bbpress.org/forums/ (use the tag ‘bbpress-plugin’)

2. http://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org

Where can I report a security vulnerability?

1. http://wordpress.org/about/contact/

2. jjj in #bbpress on freenode on IRC

Where do support questions go?

Use these forums the same as always, and use the tag ‘bbpress-plugin’

Does this integrate with BuddyPress?

bbPress 2.0 integrates with BuddyPress activity streams, profile links, and avatars. bbPress 2.0 does not yet integrate with Groups, but it also will not conflict with them. This means there are no code conflicts or errors by leaving both activated.

Forums and topics are not showing up in my theme!

Try resaving your permalinks.

Is there an importer from a 1.0 installation?

A first attempt is included, and it needs testing. That’s where you come in!

Where can I contribute translations

http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin/

Where is the documentation?

In the code itself right now. There’s not a lot of sense in creating documentation for pre-release software, as anything is subject to change. There will be a bbPress codex coming soon after release, so sit tight.

Why can my admin post videos, and normal users can’t?

Admin accounts in WordPress are granted a specific capability that enables them to post any kind of content they choose. Normal users do not have this ability, and are restricted to a specific set of HTML tags.

What is happening to bbPress 1.x?

It will continue to be maintained into the foreseeable future but is feature frozen, meaning no new features will get put in.

Can the bbPress Plugin 2.0 Beta be installed without WordPress?

No. bbPress 2.0 is strictly a plugin for WordPress.

How can I set which users can do what things?

You’ll want to use existing WordPress plugins if you want to customize the capabilities of your users. Start with Members or User Role Editor but be careful! It’s possible to lock yourself out of your site if you remove your own capabilities, so don’t fuss about if you’re not sure what you’re doing.

Hi all,

I have just successfully dabbled with BBPress and installed with my WordPress install. Yippee!

What I really need is the right plugin that not only notifies any forum admins that a new post has been lodged, but will also notify the member who lodged the post when his post has had a reply.

I have tried a few out there and I cant seem to find one that does both of these functions which seem like a pretty basic design feature IMHO.

Yeahhhh! I find the solution!

Hello,

I want to make it work both my wordpress blog and bbpress should 1 login with facebook connect.

I just trying with this way:

In wordpress plugin I installed Facebook Connect: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-facebook-connect/

In bbpress plugin I installed Simple Facebook Connect: http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/simple-facebook-connect/

I have read the readme Installation guide, and install it without any error notice.

In my wordpress blog it works well. But not in my bbpress.

If I’m connected as facebook user in wordpress, in bbpress I should click Facebook connect, and the result is:

Error: an user account with the email address ’email @ address’ already exists.

Note: email @ address is a valid email, I just didn’t want to show it here.

More Info: I’m using database integration for wordpress and bbpress, so it is in the same database name access.

So, what should I do?

Which is the best solution for this issue?

Thank You.

Hi everyone. I am very happy to see there is again certain activity in the future of bbPress and that the “plugin version” is already release in alpha.

I understand much has been put into it and I’ve seen Gautam’s converter script.

We have and old forum we managed to convert to bbPress 1 hooked together with a WordPress installation (2. but we got stack with the theming integration and it was never released. We now want to go ahead with the project but we are a bit uncertain which route to go with.

I would really appreciate from developers or someone who’s had the experience comments on:

– bbPress have a long tradition of “working alphas” is this the case again? I mean can I consider now that once beta and final version are released it won’t mean reconverting everything again from scrath?

– would I better off waiting for the final release and importer, specially if we plan to integrate buddypress on this installation afterwards.

Many thanks in advance and thanks to the development team for maintaining the project.

Don’t use “add_theme_support()” unless your theme actually supports it.

add_theme_support() doesn’t automatically add bbPress support to your theme, but the opposite – it tells WordPress and bbPress that your theme already supports bbPress. If you don’t have a /bbpress folder in your theme full of bbPress template files, then your theme does not support bbPress.

There isn’t a core updater yet, but there will be soon. These questions are all answered numerous times in the sticky topic at the front of these forums.
