Options +MultiViews

Did not work for me.

I placed the .htaccess in the folder /forums (that is where the bbpress is installed. No luck. Tried placing it below the .htaccess at root used by wordpress. No Luck! I also copied the above stuff and put it at the root together with wordpress’s .htaccess, but no luck!

I love your wonderful program. But I can’t get this thing to work.

Can anyone help me please ?

forums/bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php

gave me this :

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this post.

I have a variant of this problem.

When I run my bbpress with a url through a directory under my domain (drewstylz.com/forums), using permalinks works ok. But when I try to run bbpress through a subdomain url (forums.drewstylz.com), the permalinks don’t work at all. They are generated correctly but clicking on any permalink only brings me to the forum home page. Running bbpress without permalinks does still work however.

I’ve tried following the FAQ but neither of the options have worked. I do have wordpress installed in the root directory of my domain and bbpress in a subdirectory so I’m thinking that may be the issue but I don’t know which part would be affecting it. I’ve also tried renaming the .htaccess file in my root directory and then following the suggestions from the FAQ but when I disable the .htaccess file in the root folder, clicking on the permalinks just brings me to a “url not found” page.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do?

I can post my .htaccess files if necessary. I’ve left my current bbpress configuration with the problem if anyone wants to take a quick look.

I’m sorry, I confused little myself too:)

Ok here is the deal

Because the bbpress profile page doesn’t work, I want to show user favorites on wordpress profile page (the best on separate page – tab), like Extended Profile from Userextra plugin.

[so1o]

vlp..

you said you want to show the favorites in the wordpress profile.

http://www.tasty.sk/forum/profile/username/favorites

this is the link to the bbpress profile page.

i am confused now can you try to explain again what are you trying to do?

[vlp]

I change it, know there is no error, but no favorite forum shows up.

The deal is that my favorites dissaper, if I point my browser to http://www.tasty.sk/forum/profile/username/favorites, it redirects me to http://www.tasty.sk/user/username//favorites

It worked before, but probably I changed something so I thought maybe I create another favorites page

[so1o]

yup use it in wordpress.. if i understand you right.. you want to show it on the wordpress profile page right? the one which is

<you website.com>/wp-admin/profile.php

try changing the code to

<?php if ($topics): foreach ( $topics as $topic ) : ?>

..

..

..

..

..

<?php endforeach; endif; ?>

[vlp]

So if I understand right, I should use this code as a WP plugin?

I tried that and I get an error:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/tasty.sk/tasty.sk/www/wp-content/plugins/bbpress-favorites.php on line 30

It is shown in profile main page…it is possible to create another separate page for that?

[so1o]

here is the hacked code.. this will show the favorites on profile page in the admin section of wordpress. I haven’t tested it but this is the basic idea.

please note that the wordpress must be integrated both ways before you can do this. visit this for more

add_action('show_user_profile',

'my_plugin_show_favorites');



function my_plugin_show_favorites() {

$topics = get_user_favorites( $user->ID, true );

?>

<br clear="all" />



<table width="99%"  border="0"

cellspacing="2" cellpadding="3">

<tr>

<th><?php _e('Topic'); ?></th>

<th><?php _e('Posts'); ?></th>

<th><?php _e('Freshness'); ?></th>

<th><?php _e('Remove'); ?></th>

</tr>



<?php foreach ( $topics as $topic ) : ?>

<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>

<td><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>">

<?php topic_title(); ?></a></td>

<td class="num"><?php

topic_posts();

?></td>

<td class="num"><small><?php

topic_time();

?></small></td>

<td class="num">[<?php

user_favorites_link(

'',

array('mid'=>'x'),

$user_id

);

?>]</td>

</tr>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</table>



<div class="nav">

<?php favorites_pages(); ?>

</div>

<?php

no. Its gravatar for wordpress integrated for bbpress

[_ck_]

If you can get to “/forums/bb-admin/” (replace forums with whatever you called it) it might be your cookies.

You need to make sure your cookies are all pointing to the root of your website for both bbpress and wordpress. By default they are not so it’s probably preventing login?

See here:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpressbbpress-single-sign-on?replies=22#post-9010

and

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cookie-integration-for-wordpress?replies=3#post-6496

and a few other threads if you search for “cookies”

[fel64]

Can you link us to it?

The login functions that logs you into bb redirect you to the forums. It may be possible to change that behaviour but I’m not immediately sure how – probably using an action or filter, possibly the action bb_user_login.

[avatarx]

Thanks fel64, that did it, sort of… I inserted the line at the end of my wp-config.php file and that allows me to call the login_form() PHP function from bbPress from within WP. The page loads fine except I do get an error message at the bottom of my browser (using IE 7) that says, “Done, but with errors on page”. I think this means there’s a javascript error somewhere? No idea where to start looking for this. Any thoughts?

Also, it doesn’t quite work as desired since when you do anything with the login form it redirects you to the forums which makes sense but not the behavior I want. I think I may forego any further modifications for now but I like the idea of the deeper integration between WP and bbPress. If I can figure out the error I may be able to dabble more later as I learn more PHP.

Thanks!

Hi,

I would like to integrate bbpress user favorites to wordpress profile page. Is there any hook I could use?

I search the forum but I couldn’t find anything relevant.

thanks

[vlp]

My solution from my last comment worked fine, but it stops I don’t know why.

Right know, if I point to “http://www.tasty.sk/forum/profile/&lt;?php echo $user_identity; ?>/favorites” it takes me to “http://www.tasty.sk/user/vlp//favorites&#8221;

Any ideas why could be this happening?

Or how to integrate favorites page (what url) to show it inside wordpress?

[so1o]

Here is a how-to on the integrated live search for bbpress and wordpress

http://www.adityanaik.com/integratepress-part-ii-live-search/

[so1o]

add these pluginsin bbpress

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/2

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/4

and this one in wordpress..

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

[fel64]

It does indeed require a deeper level of integration. You want to load bb when you load wp, so open wp’s wp-config.php and add the following line:

require_once('./bbpress/bb-load.php');

where /bbpress/ should be the subdirectory of wordpress that bb is in. If that works you should now be able to call any bb function from wp.

[fel64]

I don’t know if this is exactly what you’re looking for but bbSync unifies commenting and when an old topic is synchronised the comments are transferred – albeit as if they had just been posted, with a little message saying they haven’t.

[mistainu]

if this were done, I’m hoping it would be a fully integrated system in wordpress and bbpress. it would be nice of both applications “realize” they’re both there in the same website and perform integrated functions themselves by means of one plugin in each wp and bbp.

[sharmila]

right now i tried to upload and run bbpress but no sucess i dont know how to do it.

please can the bbpress people give fantastico install on bbpress on hostmonster as they have wordpress

the hostmonster suport has told me to ask help in bbpress

[jeremykuno]

I am new to bbPress and have spent most of this weekend trying to get it installed and running on a site I am trying to roll out.

Here is a synopsis of where I am beginning from:

-Shared hosting account on HostGator

-Currently run 3 other sites all running WordPress

-All 3 sites run from 3 different DB’s named uniquely

-Never had a problem with any of the 3 sites

-I am not a WordpPress expert by any stretch of the definition

What I am trying to do:

-On a 4th site, I am trying to install bbPress to create a community forum.

-Eventually I would like to integrate it with WordPress, but I would like to get grounded in bbPress first.

Issue:

Every time I install bbPress, I can get the site to come up but when I click on any of the links (like trying to drill down into a topic), the URL changes but the content is always the homepage. I am able to login to the admin screen, but I can’t ever make any changes within it. I can add new topics and they display, but I can never drill into it so I can read the content or add replies.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

I tried searching the forums for the answer so if I completely missed it if you could point me in the right direction that would help. Any help or advice you can give is appreciated.

Thanks,

Jeremy

Thanks for both your replies. I’d read that thread previously and my impression was that it is overly complex for what I’m trying to accomplish and was hoping for a much simpler way. I’d rather avoid having to “hack core files” as described and I want to be able to upgrade both WP and bbPress easily with changes only in my template files. I also don’t need the complex behavior of conditionally showing admin links, etc. since I just bookmark the admin page. And finally, as I mentioned, my PHP skills are non-existant at this point so not the kind of thing I am comfortable taking on right now.

fel64, currently I have my user tables and cookies integrated. I installed bbPress within the WP directory to get the easy integration described in the docs since I’m still pretty new to both. So far that seems to work great. I like your suggestion of just grabbing the HTML code for the WP login and making it look like the bbPress login. That would solve the login part of it. However, then I would need some conditional code to display different things if the user is logged in or not, similar to what the bbPress login form does. It displays the welcome and profile link if logged in, or login form if not. For new user registration I’d have to send them to the bbPress registration page because I want them to fill out profile info not available in the WP registration form since it only asks for username/pw. Then I think it would be kind of weird that the user clicks register from the home WP page and gets taken to the forums after they register. Probably have to do some special handling there to see where they came from and send them to the right place.

So…. hope you don’t mind the thinking outloud but after all that I’m wondering if it’s all worth the trouble given how unfamiliar I am with these systems. Maybe I’ll postpone this until future versions of bbPress make login integration much easier or there are plug-ins written for WP that can help. My initial thought was, why can’t I just call the login form code from bbPress from WP? Is this something that requires a deeper level of integration than what I have? I’m curious about this in general as it would be something I’d like to be able to do in the future.

Thanks!

Hi,

I am new here. I am form lithuania so sorry for my poor english.

I have trouble. I have installed bbpress and integrated with wordpress. And now i can’t go to bbpress admin panel. Can any body help my?!

[_ck_]

Are you using php5? Server runs linux or windows?

The second error is caused by the first.

I’ll if I can do a quick fix, thanks for the report.

Please try this version and see if it makes the error go away:

Oh that was immediately more helpful than anything else I’ve asked or you’ve answered. There is something really strange going on in that the code is being inserted twice. Some hook is firing twice when it should only be once. I have to investigate.

Er, What other plugins do you have running?

I see your bbmenu in there.

Can you try deactivating everything?

Also, post your post.php template in code tags here – are you positive it’s stock?

I think I know exactly what is happening but I don’t know why.

My plugin hooks topicmeta

add_action('topicmeta','bb_polls_pre_poll');

Topicmeta can only happen once on a topic page.

Somehow it’s firing more than once on your page.

Deactivate all other plugins for a minute just to make sure something doesn’t have a major bug.

Try this experimental fix which unhooks itself after the first execute to prevent a second run:
