Did you put BOTH database tables and such in the SAME database? Like I said above here?

If you want, and IF I can find the stuff I had before.. I’ll post it back here. As for the stuff you’re talking about above there… couldn’t ya just change the references from WP database calls to bbPress calls?

As far as I know, you would only need to do what’s on this page right? Since we’re not talking about WP here at all?

i am wondering the same thing. i am running wp-phpmailer on my blog and have integrated bbpress just today. i want to use phpmailer for the bbpress email as well but it doesnt seem to be working

[smurfdude]

I get this error on my comments page

WordPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘wp_bbpress_post_posts WHERE post_id =]

SELECT topic_id FROM wp_bbpress_post_posts WHERE post_id = 32 LIMIT 1;

I have my forum integrated with wordpress, and all was working fine in both firefox and IE until i turned permalinks on in wordpress only. I emphasize, wordpress only, i’m not using pretty urls in bbpress.

This is where the odd behaviour starts. My blog works perfectly, permalinks work fine, and my forum works fine in firefox. However, when using permalinks in wordpress, i get “page cannot be found” error in IE7 when trying to browse the forum.

I’m totally stumped. My server supports permalinks, it works perfectly in firefox, wordpress works in IE7, and bbpress works in IE7 with permalinks off in wordpress. But with them turned on… page not found. What the hell?

Tried adding the TinyMCE to bbpress and it didn’t work. Asked a guy who knows more about this than I do, and he couldn’t get it to work either. Browsing for an answer, its suggested

• a javascript conflict with a plugin
• , or template.

I’m using the latest version of WordPress in case there is a conflict there. (Windows hosting)

Mine is at http://akirakurosawa.info/forums/ . I’ve done a little bit here and there, although more behind the scenes than with the theme.

The installation is integrated with the rest of the site, which runs on WordPress. So much so, in fact, that I even ended up modifying a WordPress Avatar plugin so that I can use the same plugin for both WordPress and bbPress. (Although I don’t actually use it for the WordPress side at the moment.)

The bbPress installation itself has the following plugins:

– Allow images

– Comment quicktags (with some modifications)

– Display name (with some modifications)

– Fix bbPress

– Quote

– WordPress Integration

I’m adding things little by little as the users request new features.

fel64, thanks

I will try the post plugin

[fel64]

How to do it? Write a MySQL query that transfers the info.

Otherwise you could use the bb Post plugin, edit the relevant posts so they get created as threads, and then delete them in WP.

Hello all,

When I installed bbpress intially, everything worked fine. After about a month of use though, the email message is not being sent during registration. I assume this might be due to a change with my host (dreamhost) but I don’t have any idea where to start looking for the problem.

I also have many wordpress blogs installed across dreamhost and have experienced no such problem on any of them.

Can someone please point me in a direction (to test) that might lead to a solution?

Thanks

Ryan

Any ideas on this from anyone?

These forums use the Spanish Translation and some extra language tweaks i added on my own …

Forums for Temporada de Patos

the plugins i use are:

Allow Images

Avatar Upload

BB-Emoticons

BB-Ratings

BB-Signature

Front Page Topics

Indicate New Posts

Page Links for bbPress

Post Count

Private Message

Quicktags 4 bbPress

Quote

Simple Online List

And a Custom BB-Badge Plug-in i made

The skin is an edit of the original bbpress theme, i made it to fit the main site (a WordPress blog). The icons are from the Tango Project.

The most noticeable changes in the layout are on the forum displays (front page and the one for each forum) and the profile.

Hi spencerp!

I am not using WP, so the integration is taking place between MW and BB only. BB was already installed, and I have 26 users. Integration took place *after* I installed MW in the same database as BB.

[spencerp]

citizenkeith, are installing MediaWiki with those changes and additions already done to it, before actual installing of it? Or are you doing these changes/ additions to MediaWiki *after* MW installation is done? Also, is all three (wp, bbpress and mediawiki) installed in under same database?

What I did, was, had bbPress and WP installed *first*. And integrated first. Then, I installed MediaWiki into the same database as WP and bbPress. Then applied those extensions and additions to MediaWiki…

spencerp

[citizenkeith]

Here’s what I’ve done so far:

Installed Mediawiki. Put Authpress in the extensions folder. Added code to LocalSettings.php. In that file, I tried both with and without these lines, uncommented and with my database information:

# Only include the following if you aren't using the same db as MediaWiki

$wgAuth->setAuthPressDBServer ('FIXME');

$wgAuth->setAuthPressDBName('FIXME');

$wgAuth->setAuthPressUser('FIXME');

$wgAuth->setAuthPressPassword('FIXME');

I added false, 0, as described here:

http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/wiki-tech/2005-August/000028.html

I’ve tried every combination, but MediaWiki still looks for the table mw_bb_users instead of bb_users.

My only option is to re-install MediaWiki without the table prefix, but I’d prefer to avoid that.

I have installed wpPHPmailer plugin with WordPress so that I can use an external SMTP server with password protection. The the same time I have integrated bbPress. But when a user registers, there is this message:

“Great! Your registration as was successful. Within a few minutes you should receive an email with your password.” .

But then there is a message on the top:

“Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at “localhost” port 25, verify your “SMTP” and “smtp_port” setting in php.ini or use ini_set() in C:Program FilesApache GroupApache2htdocsmydomainforumsbb-includesregistration-functions.php on line 105″

Cannot I use wpPHPmailer with bbPress. Alternatively, how can I use the native sendmail or whatever functionality comes with bbPress.

Hi,

i’m having the same problem with my WordPress and bbPress integrated install – (href tags getting stripped and extra slashes getting added)

See here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/641 and here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/670

I’m running:

WordPress 2.1.3

bbPress 1.0-alpha

The 2 fixes worked for me but rather than editing the bb-includes/default-filters.php file.. i put the temporary fixes in a quick bbPress Plugin so that i don’t end up forgetting about the modifications after an upgrade and can now easily deactivate the plugin should this issue get permenantly resolved.

I put the plugin up online. If you’re interested, you can download it here: http://indyish.googlepages.com/fix-href-slashes.php

[citizenkeith]

the answer is here

http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/wiki-tech/2005-August/000026.html

I’ve tried everything in the above thread, but I still get mw_ appended to the table (mw_bb_users).

Yes, we could set up a wiki – but to avoid (most of) the stated problem it would have to be a technical/developers wiki for now. We should also agree to move it’s contents to any official wiki when it comes along. I assume that an official wiki would use the same software as codex.wordpress.org which appears to be mediawiki, so to be compatible when the time comes we would have to use that too. My personal thought is that it is about time for this, and as the development community grows it is becoming necessary. I could set one up in half an hour (I’d be happy to host it – ad free). And we could work out the taxonomy of it here.

To be slightly democratic, I say if ten people who we recognise as regulars/developers vote for it here, then we should go ahead. I’m also willing to hear arguments against the idea too.

Should we vote on it?

Sorry if this has been dealt with, but I’ve searched the forums for this and haven’t found anything. I’m pretty sure this is not a bozo issue.

Using bbPress 0.8.1 with WordPress 2.1

Just installed not long ago and am testing now…

I am able to add forums with no problem.

But, when I add a new post to a given forum, it appears to save (it does in fact, as I checked the db table). However, it doesn’t show up in the forum post counts on the front page, and unless I navigate back to the form where I added the post, I lose it completely.

I’ve tried subscribing to a new post that I just saved, and I get the message “Something strange happened, please try refreshing”. I do refresh, and the message goes away, but nothing else happens, and the post is still lost in limbo.

Any tags attached to the post do show up correctly –it’s just the post itself that is gone.

Thanks for any help!

When i was using author.php for my wordpress profile i used the following code to show the latest blog posts i had made

<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

Hi peoples.

I wish to install bbpress for the Hebrew language (which is right to left), for which I need a supporting style sheet (such as the style-rtl.css).

Unfortunately, style -rtl.css is broken (for IE):

http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/612

(for a month, and much longer then that)

I tried, yet wasn’t able to fix the css myself, and until the issue isn’t resolved, I can not install bbpress (which I very much wish to do).

I know that once bbpress will work for the Hebrew language, many of the Hebrew wordpress community would love to use it, so the request is for more users then me.

Please Please Please, can someone fix it ?

[smurfdude]

Ok sure. Though bare in mind this is probably a really crappy way of doing it, but hey, I don’t even know php, so give me some credit for trying hehe.

I deleted bb-avatar-upload.php from /my-plugins/ and put it in my wordpress plugins folder. Then at the top of the file I put:

include(‘/path/to/blog/forum/avatar_function.php’);

I created avatar_function.php myself and pasted in the contents of the bbpress config file. The reason I didn’t use the original file is because the follow was causing an error when logging in to the admin panel.

require_once(‘/path/to/blog/wp-blog-header.php’);

define(‘wp_bb’,true);

That’s basically it. I’ve checked about every page and everything is working fine, so i’ve no idea if there’s any potential problems doing this, but all I know is it works as far as i can tell.

[LMD]

A default avatar option will be in the next version of the plugin!

Also, Smurfdude, Would you also like to show how you included avatars in WordPress, for the benefit of other users?
