PHP Warning: rawurlencode() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/spider/public_html/wp/wp-includes/classes.php on line 1658

Well i have that problem when i integrate my bbpress with wordpress. It only happen when i view “manage->post” and “manage->pages”. I already edit the classes.php and it only fix my “manage->post”. My “manage->pages” are still broken.

If i disable the integration, everything work perfectly without any error. Anyone know how to fix this thing?

@kannued

Actually u can load bbpress into wordpress I have tried it and it work perfectly. https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/61?replies=3

First let me say what a breeze to install and intigrate. I didnot even realize it was integrated untill I noticed while logged into WP admin I brought up the forum in another tab and was logged in there too! Nice job.

Ok now to my question, Im trying to get the forum to look like wp, in my cae its http://dentalceramics.com and http://dentalceramics.com/forums. Like what youve done with this site.

My problem is that every time I try and ad

<?php

require_once(‘/home/dental/public_html/wp-blog-header.php’);

define(‘WP_BB’, true);

I get a crash. Interestingly though define(‘WP_BB’, true); works under the last section of the config.php file but only as define(‘wp_bb’,true); Its how its defined now.

So my thouht is do I need to even do this? Can I just start adding wp tags tp my bb_template files? If so what should for example <?php bb_get_header(); ?> be changed to in the front-page.php file if this is the way to go about it.

Many thanks,

Rob

Oh, sorry no access to my error log files which is a real bummer for stuff like this to help.

I’m trying to get cookies integration with wordpress working, but after some failed attempts (I read the FAQs and searched on the forum) I can’t figure out how to do this. My WordPress installation is at http://www.salatti.net while bbPress is at forum.salatti.net (so bbPress is not in a subdirectory of WP, but on a third level domain). What should I do?

Thanks,

Daniele

Yeah i already renamed it – actually I copied it and changed the name of my copy then edited it:

<?php

// ** MySQL settings ** //

define(‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘themboy7_bbpres’); // The name of the database

define(‘BBDB_USER’, ‘themboy7_tmgforu’); // Your MySQL username

define(‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘**********’); // …and password

define(‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

// Change the prefix if you want to have multiple forums in a single database.

$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please!

// If your bbPress URL is http://bbpress.example.com/forums/ , the examples would be correct.

// Adjust the domain and path to suit your actual URL.

// Just the domain name; no directories or path. There should be no trailing slash here.

$bb->domain = ‘http://www.themortgageguide.org.uk&#8217;; // Example: ‘http://bbpress.example.com&#8217;

// There should be both a leading and trailing slash here. ‘/’ is fine if the site is in root.

$bb->path = ‘/forum/’; // Example: ‘/forums/’

// What are you going to call me?

$bb->name = ‘TMG Forum’;

// This must be set before running the install script.

$bb->admin_email = ‘forum@themortgageguide.org.uk’;

// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.

$bb->mod_rewrite = true;

// The number of topics that show on each page.

$bb->page_topics = 30;

// A user can edit a post for this many minutes after submitting.

$bb->edit_lock = 60;

// Your timezone offset. Example: -7 for Pacific Daylight Time.

$bb->gmt_offset = 0;

// Your Akismet Key. You do not need a key to run bbPress, but if you want to take advantage

// of Akismet’s powerful spam blocking, you’ll need one. You can get an Akismet key at

// http://wordpress.com/api-keys/

$bb->akismet_key = ***********;

Dear astereo,

Great guide! One thing I would add, however, is what to do when there are errors, ie troubleshooting. For some reason I get stuck at the install.php file telling me “Cannot select DB.” This is despite the fact that I have followed the directions you mentioned (and those included on this website) to a T and have successfully installed WordPress, phpBB, and other php/mysql web programs with no problem. Also it seems like the member n2 is having the same problem. If the solution is found to this, perhaps it could be put in your ultimate guide, so that others do not fall into the same trap. Thank you.

[edwinkort]

Great, thanks. Although I’m still having problems installing this

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/bookieb/public_html/bbpress/config.php on line 46

Line 46 (and further):

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // ‘wp_’; // WordPress table prefix.

$bb->wp_home = ‘www.bookieboy.co.uk’; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘www.bookieboy.co.uk’; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash

[ranrar]

why not do as wordpress does? just copy a script/code into a folder and then activate the plug-in and then folow the install instructions acorting too the plug-in readme about tags? and so on?

then you can easly can deside yourself witch you need this plug-in ore not just like wordpress.

[ranrar]

Yes its quit nice skin to bbpress, i hope in the futre there vil come more cool skins to bbpress like wordpress

[mistainu]

#1. have a smoother “intuitive” integration between wordpress and bbpress?

#2. plugins and theme options pages in control panel *doh*

#3. in the bbpress control panel, have a link that says “over to wordpress” and vice versa; that would require bbpress and wordpress to “recognize” each other’s presence on the website. a result of suggestion #1

#4. search function? etc

that’s all i can muster… otherwise it’s awesome.

[mistainu]

nevermind, i figured out what went wrong:

near the bottom…

// Use the following line *only* if you will be loading WordPress everytime you load bbPress.

//define('WP_BB', true);

so i removed the //

define('WP_BB', true);

and that’s what caused the problem… now that i replaced the // back, integration works fine. but i have a question?

what was that line even supposed to do? i thought load everytime means i can callup the wordpress functions in the bbpress template? or something to that extent? someone please clarify?

[mistainu]

it said something about capabilities.php had an error… so that’s why i added both plugins again, yet both failed to fix the problem.

consider me a first timer dummy and guide me step by step how to go about integrating bbpress to my wordpress?

[Jaxia]

Ahhh, my bad. I thought that is what ”pretty’ permalinks did. Something to look forward to

(BTW, xdforum uses mod rewrite rules to make it work. It’s a wordpress forum plugin. Nifty, but I guess it depends on which features are more important to the end user right now )

[mistainu]

none of the above helped with my situation. here’s my predicament:

i’ve got a full running WP. so i install bb in a directory inside WP’s means ROOT/ is WP and ROOT/bbpress is bb. bbpress worked fine when it was in it’s own database too. but when i edited the few lines… at the bottom of bbpress’ config.php, to direct to wordpress’ prefixes and urls (i also edited the top lines to direct to my wordpress database as well).

then it didn’t work… what went wrong>?

here’s a link to the thread i started abt it…

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/98

[mistainu]

first, i setup my bbPress, tested it… worked great! now i went to the config.php and changed the settings to point to my wordpress. my wordpress has in the root directory and mt bbpress was i a folder root/forums/ … for the configuration, i’m sure i did everything right. changed the wordpress prefix from false to wp_ then added in the urls of my wordpress as required. i then removed the // on the next line as the instructions said.

now i loaded the directory with bbpress… i expected to go thru the whole installation thing again but it failed. someone please help?

I believe there are several plugins for WordPress (and even a sidebar widget) that pull content from RSS feeds.

I’d use the widget since I don’t know the names of the plugins off the top of my head. I’m sure Google does, though

[p3t3r]

@ear1grey: Maybe I´ve got the plugin you want to have – some time ago I created a plugin like that for a bbpress+wordpress site which is no more online – I´ll search it on my HD and test it, and if it still works I´ll put it up for download…

[ben-h]

larmir,

I had a similar thing happen to me on WordPress. Just about went nuts trying to figure it out, but I finally did. I would think that since bbpress is made by the same folks who did WordPress that you’re experiencing the same thing I did with WordPress. I’m guessing that when you created your database that you didn’t create it in UTF-8 format. If you check the installation documentation, see if it recommends UTF-8. Then, check to see what kind of encoding is on your database. If that is the problem, you can solve the problem fairly easily. Here’s a link to instructions that I wrote for fixing the problem in WordPress:

http://www.minc.info/?p=32

You should be able to do the same thing to fix it with bbpress. *NOTE* I haven’t tried this with bbpress so I can’t guarantee it will work.

Hope that helps,

Ben

[planetphillip]

Thank you.

So how easy would it be to pull the latest 10 threads onto my wordpress sidebar?

[kannued]

When I think of it, that makes total sense. WordPress was created before BBPress. So WordPress can’t “hold” BBPress. But BBPress has been programmed to “hold” WordPress.

I think someone was saying in another forum that WordPress is working towards “holding” BBPress.

[kannued]

Actually, I just tried to login to BBPress, and there appears to be a circular matter with logging into the dashboard.

wp/bbpress/wp/bbpress/wp/

So I guess I will have to re-install everything, starting with BBPress, then loadingWordPress into it, instead of what I have now.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

You’re using WPmu, yes?

It’s a little different. See my response here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/77?replies=6

You could use the $bb->wp_home stuff, but you’ll have to also:

$bb->usercookie = ‘wordpressuser’;

$bb->passcookie = ‘wordpresspass’;

Since MU cookies are structured a little differently than WP cookies.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Try this.

Look at the cookie you have from you mu site. (In firefox: preferences -> privacy -> cookies -> view cookies then find the cookie in question. I’m sure there’s a way to do this in other browsers as well.)

I bet it looks like this:

Name: wordpressuser

Domain: example.com // or is it .example.com ?

Path: /

Send For: Any type of connection

And one for the password too:

Name: wordpresspass

Domain: example.com

Path: /

Send For: Any type of connection

If that is the case, in bbPress’ config.php set the following.

$bb->usercookie = ‘wordpressuser’;

$bb->passcookie = ‘wordpresspass’;

$bb->cookiedomain = ‘example.com’; // or .example.com if there was a . above

$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;

If I’m wrong in my guess about the structure of yrour cookies, please post what they are (name, domain, path, send for only. Don’t post the content of the cookie).

[planetphillip]

Hi,

I just noticed on the WordPress Development page

(http://wordpress.org/development/2006/10/mu-and-bbpress/)

That bbPress has RSS Feeds. How do I call them?

What would be prefect is something like the Del.icio.us site, where you can customize the output.

TIA

[kannued]

A question for Atsutane or anyone else for that matter in the know!

You talked about the design being easy if a person loads the WordPress into BBPress. But what if I do the opposite, load BBPress into WordPress? Which is what I have done.

Is it easier or BETTER to integrate WordPress into BBPress, or BBPress into WordPress, both from a programming perspective and from a website design perspective?
