hi there guys,

i’m using a rockettheme wordpress template and seem to be having issues with the beta 2 profile pages. whenever i click a username on the forums to visit the bbpress profile page of that user, it is a completely unformatted page consisting of:

>

Home

About Us

Page 3

Page 4

Forums

Logout

Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_query_type() in /wp-content/plugins/gantry/core/gantrybodylayout.class.php on line 94

I don’t know what to do. That’s all that appears on the page. That first “>” is indicating to me that there’s something wrong in a code somewhere, maybe thats an extra “>” or there’s another missing “>” or something. im not too experienced with php or wordpress, but im comfortable editing it if given instructions. if anybody could help me on this issue, i would be extremely grateful – i’ve been trying to fix it for a few days now.

thanks, i hope somebody can lend a helping hand!

(by the way, this exact same thing happens, with the same error too, when i click ‘EDIT’ to edit a post other than the first post in a topic.)

War82, the answer depends on your theme.

Most likely, your theme will generate the links in the menu bar automatically from your pages.

In this case, the easiest solution for you would be to add a simple redirection plugin such as this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/redirection/screenshots/ (first result if you search ‘redirect’ from the ‘add new’ plugin page in your wordpress installation)

Then you would just create the page “Community Forum”, copy the URL of the page (e.g. http://www.yourblog.com/community-forum)

With the plugin installed and the page created you would just go into the redirection plugin setting menu and add a redirect from the community forum url to your forum url (www.yourblog.com/forums by default)

Good luck

Im new to both wordpress and bbPress forum, however i got it to work and both the website and forum are up and running.

The only problem i have is: I cant seem to figure out how to link my forum to one of the menu bar buttons. Lets say i have a menu button called ” Community Forum “, when someone klicks that menu button i want the forum to show.

How do i link the forum page to the Community Forum menu bar button? Ive pulled my hair for hours trying to figure this out.

Oh, one more thing. What file should i edit to fix the background and text on the forum?

Thats all, thanks for a lovely plugin!

I find it astonishing that there are a hundred template files with no explanation as to what any of them do.

I installed bbPress on top of WordPress. Can somebody help me out here? I’m trying to separate postings (space them apart so their not so close to each other) by using my CSS file, but for the life of me I can’t get it to work, although I am able to make other alterations.

Any suggestions?

This can be easily done with plugins which do it for WordPress like this one.

@JohnJamesJacoby – First off, excellent work. Beautiful system. However, sorry to disagree with you, but I believe Anthony is right that there’s a problem with the plugin with both logging in and logging out (particularly when using the sidebar widget). Here’s why…

I’m testing with the bbPress RC4 installed in a WP 3.2.1 Network config using sub-directory instead of sub-domain (no BuddyPress installed, just bbPress … no other plugins installed. – I have also tested with another sidebar login plugin and everything worked fine, but I’ve uninstalled it, and when I use the bbPress login widget I get problems.) If I use the bbPress login widget and enter the right credentials it logs me in and redirects me to [site]/[site]/ which obviously a problem.

When I inspect the Login button element for the bbPress login widget I see:

<div class="bbp-submit-wrapper">

<input class="user-submit" type="submit" tabindex="104" value="Log In" name="user-submit">

<input type="hidden" value="1" name="user-cookie">

<input type="hidden" value="http://[host]/[site]/[site]/" name="redirect_to">

<input id="_wpnonce" type="hidden" value="299cce3d83" name="_wpnonce">

<input type="hidden" value="/[site]/" name="_wp_http_referer">

</div>

Since the problem is with the redirect_to hidden value, my guess is that there’s a problem with either

$redirect_to = apply_filters( ‘bbp_user_login_redirect_to’, ” );

or

bbp_redirect_to_field( $redirect_to );

which are called from bbp_user_login_fields() in the bbp-user-template.php file.

….

Moving on to Log out

…

If you correct the URL so that you’re back a the page for your site, you can now see the Gravitar, your name, and the log out link.

Again, inspecting the log out element we get:

<a href="http://[host]/[site]/wp-login.php?action=logout&_wpnonce=c08ad91218&redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2F[host]%2F[site]%2F[site]%2F%3Floggedout%3Dtrue">Log Out</a>

Again, the link to the wp-login.php is fine… it’s the redirect_to afterwards that has the site name twice that’s the problem.

I’ve also noticed that if the bbPress plugins is activated the WordPress meta for log out includes the redirect_to [site]/[site]/

If the bbPress plugin is deactivated the native WordPress meta for log out reverts back to normal (without the redirect_to).

With bbPress installed:

<a href="http://[host]/[site]/wp-login.php?action=logout&_wpnonce=07d2823a80&redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2F[host]%2F[site]%2F[site]%2F%3Floggedout%3Dtrue">Log out</a>

Without bbPress installed:

<a href="http://[host]/[site]/wp-login.php?action=logout&_wpnonce=07d2823a80">Log out</a>

I just added a “Register” link in the login widget and a page for registering/lost pass but I didn’t realize this is an issue.

Some plugin like this one might work but it is just the first I looked at and didn’t try it yet. You are right though, some non-trivial amount of people will never come back because they can’t remember the password they use everywhere.

BuddyPress 1.5 asks if you’d like to point to an existing stand-alone bbPress install. Should I point it at the bbPress 2.0 install, or disable forums via BuddyPress as suggested above?

And I’m assuming you’d want to turn on the BuddyPress component of: “Site Tracking: Make BuddyPress aware of new posts and new comments from your site.”

bbPress posts are basically WordPress posts (using custom post types). I’m assuming this Site Tracking feature is how bbPress posts show up in the BuddyPress activity stream.

You’ll want to contact WangGuard’s plugin author here:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wangguard/

Seems the problem is unrelated to bbPress. There are several other users with issues too.

I wasn’t so concerned about fixing it as I was about getting access to to the general settings again.

here’s the fix on this website I found, http://tadej.eu/wordpress-timezone-exception-fix-hack

[honustudios]

I’m running the latest dev version of the plugin, version 3476, in hopes that it would have solved my issue, but no luck.

I was getting the error mentioned in this thread http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/tags-archives-page-are-broken-in-bbp-20-rc2-and-rc3#post-90903

I downloaded the branch code after reading the above issue and it’s resolution. Then, I started getting the WordPress “Hands off, partner!” error which is a 500 Internal Server error in Firebug.

Any ideas about what could be causing the page to not display correctly?

Thanks so much for your help and the great plugin.

Hi folks,

Always one to make things twice as hard as they need be, I started out designing a theme for the standalone product and I’d now like to change gears and port it to the plugin version.

Essentially, I didn’t think I’d use WordPress for my main site… but I’ve since come to change my mind. Now, I’ve got a nice custom theme for both my WordPress installation and a nice theme for my bbPress installation.

At this point, I can’t decide if I’d be best to keep them separated and use the integration options or to sit and re-theme everything with the plugin version. If I were to continue to use the standalone, is it possible to create widgets similar to the “recent topics” and others created by the plugin version? And subsequently, is there a way to use shortcodes for embedding bbPress into WordPress pages? heh

Sorry for the novel…

[miak]

I just installed the bbpress plugin for WordPress and also the BuddyPress plugin. When i create a new forum through bbpress the permalinks are coming out to be website.com/forums/forum/forumname

what could be causing this?

[wordpress Spec]

I use this conde in bb-config.php for my integration with wordpress 2.9.2

if ( !defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) & !defined( ‘XMLRPC_REQUEST’ )) {

define( ‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false );

//

// You will need to get the ABSOLUTE path to this file |

// |/

require_once( $_SERVER[“DOCUMENT_ROOT”].’/wp-load.php’ );

header( “HTTP/1.1 200 OK” );

header( “Status: 200 All rosy” );

}

/**

now I upadated wordpress to 3.2.1 but I get an error, my forum home not load, the error log is blank, but if I comment the above code it work.

I think that the problem is incompatible with that version

[pedrovaillant]

Decided to abandon this approach. Now using deep integration and handling all accounts in wordpress, in order to easily customize registration.

[vatoloco2]

No unfortunately even with RC2 I didn’t get that activity stream working!

This is my setup:

Install WP 3.2.1

Install bbPress (first RC2 then RC3 now latest from trac.wordpress.org)

Install Buddypress (first beta1 then beta2 now latest from trac…)

Disable Discussion forums in Buddypress

With this setup I can’t see any bbPress related stuff in Buddypress activity. I have no other problems with this setup & combo! Am I doing something wrong?

[Micheal Kennedy]

Yeahp, no modifications to the forum or BuddyPress, just using the latest beta/RC versions of both. BuddyPress integration was built-in with bbPress RC2 (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress/changelog/). Should be working for ya. What’s your site?

[vatoloco2]

I am also using the beta/RC of both! That Means bbpress 2.0RC3 and Buddypress 1.5 beta2. In addition I am also up2date with latest changes by using latest branch / trunk of both via trac.wordpress.org.

As stated earlier I have no problems at all with the combo of both. The only thing that doesn’t work is the fact that any bbpress forum post / topic / reply won’t appear in the buddypress activity stream.

So how did InterMike of allmad.org got this done? Any hint?

[John James Jacoby]

If using bbPress 2.0, it obeys your WordPress Gravatar settings.

Have you considered using the plugin instead of the standalone version?

[Gautam Gupta]

anointed: He is talking about bbPress standalone.

polimon: Please go to https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk and when you would scroll down, you would see “Download in other formats: Zip Archive”, click “Zip Archive” and upload the extracted appropriate directory into the appropriate directory on the server.

I have just released the plugin for WordPress that adds attachments to bbPress 2.0 plugin. To download it, go to WordPress.org or Dev4Press:
