Very interesting solution to display latest post from wordpress, i’ll try it!

[_ck_]

Well with wordpress, the override is right in the code but obviously to leave the bbpress core alone it would have to be a plugin. (Kinda wondering what all these plugins are doing to the supposedly high performance of BBpress).

I’d like to see admin/mods have zero limits on what they put into their posts. So to write a plugin I need to find out how to check the user level, then figure out what filter to attach it to (probably pre_post)

[_ck_]

AHA!

I found a bug. Finally I can contribute.

WordPress does indeed auto-close tags and has a fantastic routine, the balancetags I mentioned above.

HOWEVER

it was copied raw into BBpress and it won’t work by default because it’s looking for an option that will never be set because BBpress doesn’t have it

function balanceTags($text, $is_comment = 0, $force = false) {

if ( !$force && get_option(‘use_balanceTags’) == 0 )

return $text;

See what I mean? There’s no manually way to set use_balanceTags in BBpress.

So how do we force the filter on? I know it has to be balanceTags ($text,1,1) to work.

Ok so it won’t type out the code the way I want to here. I did the backsticks thing… But I know someone out there will be able to help me out anyway

I’m calling the wp-headers in forum as advised in seamless integration thread. I need to add a link to the forum profile in the header as users get confused when they only see the admin tab for wordpress. I have the loginanywhere script, and need a link to the users profile edit somewhere in this code:

`echo “<div class=’greeting’>nHej, “; echo $user_identity; echo “! Inställningar | “;

echo “Logga utn</div>n”;`

My forum is here: http://www.doublepeace.se/forum/

WordPress uses commas to separate tags, so I wouldn’t expect this to change back to spaces for the 1.0 release.

Perhaps mdawaffe can chip in on this one?

On WordPress, admin can post any content, any html markup regardless of restrictions for visitors.

I’d like to be able to do that on BBpress?

[airdrawndagger]

Ok, so answered my own question in the last post. Just had to go through everything step by step and see what collides and adjust accordingly. No, however, I need help with something else regarding this! I need to add a link to my forum profile edit to my loginanywhere script. It works at the bbpress site but then I switch over to the blog and it says profile_tab_link is an undefined function. Maybe there’s even another way to link to the profile edit? Please help!

I have had wordpress 2.2.1 up and running for a while. I just tried to install bbpress, using the table prefixes ‘wp_’, since I think that is necessary to have any authors registered on my wp site to be able to get on to bbpress, and vice versa. My bb’s config.php has the same database info as my wp’s config.

When I ran the install.php file for bb, I recieved some errors:

Second Step

Now we’re going to create the database tables and fill them with some default data.

bbPress database error: [Incorrect table definition; there can be only one auto column and it must be defined as a key]

ALTER TABLE wp_posts ADD COLUMN post_id bigint(20) NOT NULL auto_increment

bbPress database error: [Key column ‘post_id’ doesn’t exist in table]

ALTER TABLE wp_posts ADD PRIMARY KEY (post_id)

bbPress database error: [Multiple primary key defined]

ALTER TABLE wp_tags ADD PRIMARY KEY (tag_id)

1. Created table wp_forums

2. Created table wp_topics

3. Created table wp_topicmeta

4. Created table wp_tagged

5. Changed default value of wp_posts.post_status from publish to 0

6. Added column wp_posts.post_id

7. Added column wp_posts.forum_id

8. Added column wp_posts.topic_id

9. Added column wp_posts.poster_id

10. Added column wp_posts.post_text

11. Added column wp_posts.post_time

12. Added column wp_posts.poster_ip

13. Added index wp_posts FULLTEXT KEY post_text (post_text)

14. Changed type of wp_tags.tag_ID from int(11) to bigint(20) unsigned

15. Changed type of wp_tags.tag from varchar(255) to varchar(200)

16. Added column wp_tags.raw_tag

17. Added index wp_tags KEY name (tag)

bbPress database error: [Unknown column ‘post_id’ in ‘field list’]

SELECT post_id, poster_id FROM wp_posts WHERE topic_id = 1 AND post_status = 0 ORDER BY post_time

bbPress database error: [Unknown column ‘post_id’ in ‘where clause’]

SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE post_id = 114

Finished!

---

Now you can log in with the username “admin” and password “*Your WordPress password*”.

However, when I try to log in to my wordpress admin area as the ‘admin’ now, I receive the error:

“You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”

I am able to log into bb, but there are multiple errors on each page; this is repeated many times on the page:

“bbPress database error: [Unknown column ‘post_id’ in ‘where clause’]

SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE post_id = 0

Anonymous.”

I would just remove the bbpress completely, just to get wordpress login working again, but bb seems to have altered my wp user data?

thanks

Is it possible to make this plugin use the existing wordpress moderated word list? (and optionally the link count limit moderation setting)

I’ve now made a smilie plugin here:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-smilies

By the way, WordPress’s default smilie detection code and therefore the code converted here in the earlier post are very flawed when it comes to whitespace issues.

I created a patch awhile back that made it work 99% of the time regardless of spaces before, after or at the end/beginning of a sentence.

add this function:

function prepSmilies($string) {return "/(s|^)".quotemeta(trim($string))."(s|$)/";}

then add this near the start of function convert_smilies:

$prep_search = array_map('prepSmilies', $wp_smiliessearch);

then change the $contenst=str_replace line near the end of function covert_smilies:

$content = preg_replace($prep_search, $wp_smiliesreplace, $content);

Now if only it was this easy to tweak wp/bb’s search function to be so much more intelligent.

I edited the Karma Fruit theme for wordpress a bit to match the Bbpress theme. They dont look totally alike. There are some slight differences but I think when you look at it you think

of the Bbpress theme. I loved the Bbpress theme so much I wanted my WordPress to look the same . If you want the file changes let me know. Its just a few lines of css to make the difference in the original look for Karma Fruit.

Hey there, i’ve just installed Avatar Upload and it works brilliantly i must say! However identicon for bb-press as posted by louisedade (created by fel) gives me an unexpected error when i try to activate, running this outside of the plugin centre or whatever you want to call it, it gives:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: add_action() in /home/bblocked/public_html/www/forums/my-plugins/identicon.php on line 286

Inside the plugin centre it just says fatal error

I have identicon installed on my wordpress blog and bbpress retrieves all functions from wordpress etc etc intergrated bla bla bla Any ideas?

EDIT: When editing out add_action at the bottom it doesn’t produce any errors… so i don’t know what bbpress’s problem is anyway of getting it to give more info? “Fatal Error” doesn’t explain much lol

Aha!

I thought the hash value was unique for each user.

Apparently it’s unique for each blog.

so

$bb->usercookie = ‘wordpressuser_full.hash.number”;

$bb->passcookie = ‘wordpresspass_full.hash.number”;

Did the trick in config.php

Since WP 2.1+ uses the hash number, probably should update the instructions around the site. Thanks again!

[_ck_]

Hi, sorry I’ve read and read and tinkered and tinkered without luck.

BB does not see the WP logged in cookie for some reason.

wordpress is in /news/

bbpress is in /forum/

I am using a plugin on wordpress to change the cookie path to “/” and firefox shows the cookie is indeed set to the “/”

the domain is set to “example.com” without the “.”

right now I’ve got in config.php set as

$bb->usercookie = ‘wordpressuser’;

$bb->passcookie = ‘wordpresspass’;

$bb->cookiedomain = ‘example.com’;

$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;

So what little detail have I missed?

Thanks for any help!

If the twitter API can bring in an RSS feed, it can pull your bbPress feed for sure. That would be what the wordpress plugin is doing anyways. Just need to look into that I would guess.

Interesting to see if anyone is since most people here concentrate on bbPress and WordPress.

There is a plugin here called ‘bbPress Post’ that integrates your wordpress blog comments into your bbPress forum as topics for posts. Fel64 also ‘redid’ this plugin and has it so the posts are created in the bbPress forum from the wordpress blog and all comments are in the forum, but also show up in the wordpress post as comments as well.

Other software blog programs, I haven’t heard of any. Moving over to WordPress is a good option in my mind if you haven’t looked at it already since bbPress and WP are made and developed by many of the same people

I have bbpress(0.8.2) integration with wordpress(2.2.1).

I did not have any forum management before I add a forum to my previous wordpress website. Number of users are increasing daily. So as I did not have any experience with management of a forum, I have some problems.

In the beginning I installed to standard version of bbpress. After one month of forum experience, I want to add moderation plugin. Because my users are not experienced forum users. I have a range from middle school students to company owners or retired workers.

Some of the users sends strange messages, which I dont want to see on my forum.

Some of them do not allow forum rules. And some of them dont know how to use a forum. Namely when they have a new question, they write “I know it is not related to the subject …”.

I think what I need it to make the all messages for new users, moderated. Or all messages are moderated. I dont know why but the moderation plugin do not work with latest version of bbpress. So I have to uninstall the plugin and make messages un-moderated.

I will also try “move it” plugin, for unrelated messages to subject of message.

But what is the best management style for such a community. I think bbpress.org do not need moderation of messages, because at least its community know how to use a forum.

Is it better, not to waste my time to manage the forum. Namely no moderation to messages or just live what ever people writes to the forum. As I said before this is my first forum, and I also dont want people to use msn-type language usage. Am I fascist ?

[airdrawndagger]

I tried just copy-pasting my kakumei css to my wordpress css and while the structure of bbpress got back to normal with some minor quirks, it majorly disrupted my header and footer and with it my wordpress as well. How would I work around this, any other way then going through the stylesheets and changing everything so nothing’s colliding? I feel that’s A LOT of work.

I just started editing my main WordPress theme to match the forum and ive hit a snag. I loaded the sidebar good but it wont update. I took off some of the things showing on it so i could add some hot tags and stuff related to the forum into it. But whenever i upload the changed file it doesnt change. Also i have a google ad i want to float on the bottom of the page. I added it to the foot and the frontpage page but it cuts into the design. I cant figure out where to fix this so it shows under the image instead of inside it. What is the forums index page considered ? the frontpage i assume?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My url : http://chaoticmess.sittingonair.com/forum/

Turns out my problem was rewrite rules from wordpress overwriting bbpress ones. Whoops.

[Rhys Wynne]

Should be very straightforward to do from the wordpress base. Could be nice to do it for both wordpress and bbpress.

[gspark]

For anyone with an interest, i figured how to make a simple private user area

http://wordpress.org/support/topic/124247?replies=1

here’s the kicker on the BBpress end, since a wp account will be created for users who join the forum, what i did was leave the subscriber setting alone and adjusted the contributer to read/read private pages only, that way there’s no interference for default users accounts when people join the forum

hey can anyone help me out been trying to install bbpress

i then run the index.php file and this is the error it gives me
