Is there a template tag or function to get the uri to your template file? So far, all I’ve been able to find is <?php bb_option('url'); ?>, but that just returns the uri to the base directory. Is there one that will display the uri to the template directory? Like in WordPress (<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>)?
This is what they said, but he wasn’t the support guy who fixed it:
It appears that they added the correct rewrite rules for WordPress to resolve the issue with the permalinks this can also by done from the WordPress admin under Permalinks.
My new issue with this plug-in is trying to get it to NOT create a new bbPress post every time I edit a WP post.
I had that same problem when trying to make only one register & only one login from my site with bbpress integration.
register is easy, I just wrote directly to the db from php using the hash classes included. but for login i made a kind of webservice. When I login from tomcat I just request the next url…
http://www.mysite.com/bbpress-root-dir/bb-login-check.php?user_login=USER&password=PASSWORD&remember=yes
and i wrote the next code for bb-login-check.php
<?php
// Load bbPress.
require(‘./bb-load.php’);
// Redirect to an SSL page if required.
bb_ssl_redirect();
$user = bb_login( @$_GET, @$_GET, @$_GET );
if ( $user && !is_wp_error( $user ) ) {
echo “0”;//login successfully
exit;
}else{
echo “1”; //login fail
exit;
}
?>
i hope that’s usefull…

Oh Kawauso, thank you so much!! This code works perfectly!!
But do you mean that normally, I should have just one profile page for WordPress and BBpress?
Easy answer. Number one requirement is, that it also has a wordpress theme.
Does anyone have any suggestions for showing the bbpress avatar next to comments in wordpress. I know a couple suggestions were given here, but, I don’t want to try the first suggestion, because they say to delete a file in my plugins, and I have a feeling that will cause more trouble than it’s worth. I saw another suggestion, tried it, but the avatar didn’t show. This probably won’t happen, but, it would be nice if there was a sister plugin to this one for wordpress… and you installed it and magically the bbpress avatars showed up. 
Wouldn’t that be nice. Unfortunately I don’t know php very well.
Here’s hoping someone can come up with a solution!
Dear Arturo, thank you very much for the help. I really appreciate it.
I was studying how WordPress internationalization works, and figured the same procedure out myself 5 seconds ago !!
Anyway, thank you 100 times !!
<?php if ( $wp_profile_user = bb_get_user( get_post_author_id( $post_id ) ) ) : $wp_profile_link = esc_attr( "/members/{$wp_profile_user->user_nicename}/" )?><a href="<?php echo $wp_profile_link?>">View profile</a><?php endif?>
Your profile pages from bbPress and WordPress should be in sync anyway if you’ve integrated properly…
Hello everyone,
I’ve just installed bbpress 1.0.2 and bbpress integration plug-in over my 2.8.4 wordpress blog… and I am in hell.
The blog still works, from the viewer point of view (www.teknologik.fr), but the backend is a mess.
First of all, I couldn’t log in at all in the wordpress admin panel. My login and password took me to a white page saying that I didn’t have the rights. Hopefully, I had a second login with administrator right so I was able to change my “own” rights, under the second administrator login. But that was just the beginning…
Articles and Pages counter, in the main admin windows now shows “0”, although there are over 700 articles, when I do click on “Articles”.
When I try to add a new article, the ID at the end of the permalink is “1”… when the previous permalinks (when I still worked) showed four digits, like “5414”.
I’ve deleted both “bbpress” folder and “bbpress integration” pug-in but it didn’t change anything.
On top of all, I was working on a fresh re-install of the blog and the database backup wasn’t set yet, so my last backup is 3 weeks old, with tenths of new articles in between that would be lost if I had to re-install that backup.
What can I do without returning to the last backup ? Any idea ?
A million thanks, in advance…
Benjamin
Any other idea maybe?
Actually, it would be really great if I could use WordPress profile page instead of BBpress profile page, you know? Because on my WordPress, members (users=authors) can change their profile and fill up some custom fields I added and I think it’s better if they don’t have to fill up two profile pages…
Thanks
I was researching this for ya, and noticed that your host had fixed it for you:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/wordpress-bbpress-syncronization/page/9/#post-4698
Glad it worked out! Let us know if your host ever lets you know what they changed/fixed, if you could… thanks!
I’m not getting a lot of help where the plug-in is actually posted. As best I can tell my settings are correct. I’m getting this response though:
URL is incorrect or connection error, please verify it (full variant): http://hoosierhoopsreport.com/bbpress/my-plugins/wordpress-bbpress-syncronization/bbwp-sync.php
When you click on that link, it brings up a 404 page, but having checked my server files, it’s there. The plugin has been uploaded in the my-plugins folder of my bbPress folder.
Hi – I recently set up a forum, integrated with WordPress.
bbPress 1.02
WP 2.7
Everything is working fine, but several users are reporting that when they click the “View Profile” link they get a “User Not Found” error. I have examined their accounts in the database and have not found anything to differentiate them from other users.
I did find a thread on this forum referring to a similar error for the Key Master after setup. The solution there was to manually add a user nice name in the database. My problem is different as all users have nice names defined in the database already.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
> can you check if you use www. in any of the urls.
If I remove www in WP – website become unreachable.
If I remove www in BB (from http://www.mnenie.dp.ua to http://mnenie.dp.ua in integration section), login and logout in forum and www becomes independent at all.
okay, not it. I know you probably check but check again in your admin section both WP and BB, I know I wrote this before but can you check if you use www. in any of the urls.
> after you made those changes you have to “reset” your browser. Clear your cache/cookies
Obviously.
> and yes it can be the htaccess file…
for www:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
for forum:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options +MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
after you made those changes you have to “reset” your browser. Clear your cache/cookies and yes it can be the htaccess file…
It does suck. I always just use google like “site:bbpress.org/forum/” or “site:bbpress.org/plugins/” with my keyword.
The WordPress.org search used to suck equally hard but it got better a while back. Still sucks here. I accept that it sucks and move along.
There were some plugin attempts at better search for bbPress, but I don’t think they’d install a plugin just to improve the plugin search here. I think they used Sphinx at WordPress.org to fix their search:
https://wordpress.org/development/2009/02/new-and-improved-plugins-directory-search/
Everything dynamic in bbPress/WordPress is stored in the database, and tags are stored in one table but referenced in others. Better to fix the underlying problem.
Hi – I’m getting a similar error – only it occurs for some general users. I integrated BBPress 1.02 with WordPress 2.7. Everything seems to be working fine, but some users report getting a “user not found error” when the click on the “view Profile” link. I checked the database, and all have user nicenames. Any thought?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Actually it displays a link “view your profile” as you can see here : http://www.spleenarcana.com/forums/topic/what-are-you-listening-to-right-now
But I explained it in a bad way because I’d like a link to my WordPress profile pages, for example :
http://www.spleenarcana.com/members/admin/ (where “admin” is the nicename and I changed “author” for members)
Do you think it’s possible?
Could it be due to some .htaccess stuff? I mean cookie trouble.
> try adding define( ‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.mnenie.dp.ua’ ); to bb-config
Done. Same result.
The way I did it was to duplicate kakamei theme (not the blue) and put it in the my-template.
Then started with the BB header, I copied what was in the WP header. I took everything out after the body tag except for the “main” div. The BB footer I did the same. I just made sure there were enough div closing tags. Then copied over the codes that apply for the header and footer from the WP css. Most WP theme has two column one main and one sidebar. I treated BB like it was wordpress, one side the main section and the other sidebar. I treated the MAIN div as the main section and View/Hottags as the sidebar. I know this is not the best explanation but I hope you get the idea. It just takes a lot of css work.
try adding define( 'COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.mnenie.dp.ua' ); to bb-config
