Hey all –

I’m hoping I’m just missing something here, but I’m trying to create a new template (to match a WordPress theme I’m working on). I’ve created a folder within the bbp-themes folder, and added a stylesheet and one file (I’m just testing it right now to get a feel for how the theming system works): page-front-forums.php.

The thing is, when I do this, ALL of my themes in the WordPress back end (under appearance > themes), save the twenty Ten (default WP theme and the bbPress version) go away. ALL of them. Now, the current theme is still working on the front end of the site, but on the back end, there’s no themes at all – they are all gone.

So can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong here? Am I putting the bbPress theme files in the wrong place? Or is this some kind of bug?

[Swaree]

Got thru installation procedure, but one error when tried to create ‘bb_allposts’ table. Error seems to be syntax error??? How do I fix or how do I re-install? If I have to re-install, do I need to remove anything first?

Hope you can help

Regards

Hello,

I have just started to study BBPress structure. I am familiar with WordPress.

I like to know how can we apply “resolved” or “not resolved” status to any Topic?

Thanks.

I’ve asked for hosting and it’s approved. I removed the zip because i need to figure out which one of my copies is the best to put into the browser.

Currently I’ve just been editing the live plugin on my Tartarus test site, and then copying to test-and-edit on a more default WP+bbP on my dumping ground.

Tartarus = http://beta.tartarus.co.nz

dumping ground = http://dump.master5o1.com/wpbb/

You should get this into WordPress Extend. If it works as advertised, it could be quite popular.

hi zaerl, thanx for the fix, but it didn’t work on my case:

I wrote in my htaccess file

<VirtualHost *:80>

DocumentRoot “/public_html/forumcine.ma/wordpress”

ServerName forumcine.ma

ServerAlias http://forumcine.ma

</VirtualHost>

this results in a 500 internal server error.

I don’t have access to httpd-vhosts.conf

[abdessamad idrissi]

UPDATE:

I went deep to try to find out what is causing this problem then I noticed that; topics with long titles are the ones who suffer from this issue.

for example;

a topic with a name السينما “تقرأ وتشاهد will show, but a topic with a name like: السينما المغربية تعيش طفرة رغم أزمة قاعات العرض won’t show! instead a 404 error is outputted.

PS: I opened a ticket @http://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1564

[abdessamad idrissi]

I used to run v1.0.3 then I decied to go plugin version..

I did an import but since my forums contains arabic topics; some topics didn’t make into the new version, also, even if they show in my forums when you click on a topic title to view it, it leads you to 404 page.

I noticed articles contains characters such as; ! , ? are not handled by the WordPress importer.

another thing is the search field provided in the twenty ten theme: it doesn’t search inside the forum but inside the blog -how to enable forum searching?

Thanx for the great work and keep on moving

PS. you can compare Arabic and Latin written topics on my forum here: http://forumcine.ma/forums/forum/forum-general/koi-d-9/

[master5o1]

FYI. You can’t ignore yourself or anyone who can moderate.

[abdessamad idrissi]

go import your old bbpress in from (tools menu)

[master5o1]

It’s a plugin for WordPress + bbpress 2.0.

It allows users to ignore other users by way of hiding their posts and topics.

It’d be great if anyone with spare time could test and give feedback

This happened:

bbPress Standalone Importer



Warning: set_time_limit() [function.set-time-limit]: Cannot set time limit in safe mode in <removed for privacy>/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-admin/importers/bbpress.php on line 668

Importing Users



We’re in the process of migrating your users...



Renamed the wp_users and wp_usermeta tables to bb_wp_users_tmp and bb_wp_usermeta_tmp respectively.



WordPress database error: [Table '<removed for privacy>.bb_users' doesn't exist]

CREATE TABLE wp_users ( <code>ID</code> BIGINT( 20 ) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, <code>user_activation_key</code> VARCHAR( 60 ) NOT NULL DEFAULT '', KEY ( <code>user_login</code> ), KEY( <code>user_nicename</code> ) ) SELECT * FROM bb_users ORDER BY <code>ID</code>

There was a problem duplicating the table bb_users to wp_users. Please check and re-run the script or duplicate the table yourself.

After that I only got:

WordPress database error: [Table 'md220579db167769.wp_users' doesn't exist]

SELECT * FROM wp_users WHERE user_login = '<removed for privacy>'



WordPress database error: [Table 'md220579db167769.wp_users' doesn't exist]

I delete the tables bb_wp_usermeta_tmp and bb_wp_users_tmp trying to fix this problem: stupid of course …

I am trying to Install the Forum in WordPress but cannot get the Forum to be accessed through the menu bar. I checked all the settings and can add forums and topics, but cant access is. How can I add this to a page in my site which will show up in my menu?

[canada87]

It’s too bad. Lots of people want help with this issue but that forum seems to be down for me.

[Syniq]

OK, if you change line 189 of forum/bb-includes/backpress/class.wp-auth.php to this:

$key = wp_hash( $username . $pass_frag . ‘|’ . $expiration, $scheme );

It works.

The standard is this:

$key = call_user_func(backpress_get_option(‘hash_function_name’), $username . $pass_frag . ‘|’ . $expiration, $scheme );

Which doesn’t work. Has the algorithm changed in the latest version of WordPress?

In my opinion must merge the two profile types: forum profile (user) and wordpress profile (author).

[master5o1]

That’s awesome.

My brother and I have our own forum site project together also.

I’m the programmer type and he’s the designer type. But we’re both a bit too lazy and apathetic to get our site looking as nice as that.

http://tartarus.co.nz/ (wordpress + bbpress integration).

He also finds it difficult to design considering our forum is more of a general discussion community rather than something specific.

Hi, all,

I’m having issues with the forums on http://www.daddybegood.com/. It’s installed correctly (as far as I can tell, at least!), but no-one can post on it.

The log-in system seems to work fine, but the forums still show “You must log in to post”.

DBG is functionally identical to our sister site http://www.high50.com/ which has a fully-working forum. The only differences are in the database (content, config, etc).

Anyone got any ideas what might be going wrong?

[master5o1]

Oh. Just noticed that’s really just a place holder one.

If you had the buddypress bundled forums set up then it would be in root dir of WordPress. Don’t need to delete anything if the buddypress bundled forums aren’t set up.

[adjin]

a Strange bug here :

I have bbpress as a plugin in WordPress ; both upadated to the most recent versions.

I also have S2Member plugin running (compatible with bbpress 2 plugin)

and buddyPress plugin, latest version. (bbpress forum component is disactivated,

because I dont know where to find the bb-config.php file in a bbpress plugin install ???)

My theme is Dynamix, (it is buddypress and bbpress compatible)

Now here is the problem :

I created all My forums and categories.

I’m happy with it, the tree is looking good, and I can navigate it !

BUT as soon as I post a New Topic, I can no longer navigate the Forums …

The URL in the browser’s adress bar is changing accordingly to my moves

BUT the only thing I can see is this topic that i posted !! …

If I clic a link back to the BLOG area of wordpress, I can see my posts correctly and navigate.

But if I clic again (or type an URL) on any of my Forums links, I am presented again with this TOPIC !!

Also … I have a link to my FAQ page (which is a normal wordpress PAGE)

and this link also brings me back to my infamous Topic (instead of displaying my FAQs) …

(although the URL is the FAQs URL …)

Now if I try to create more Topics, I will see only the first one I wrote …

And if I delete all Topics, everything is back to normal …

and I can see my Forums Navigation tree again (my FAQs as well) !

How crazy is that ?

Any Help appreciated.

Oversight. It used to work as part of the WordPress Tag Cloud widget, but that behavior may have changed.

Will fix for 2.0.

[master5o1]

Assuming you have name based permalinks on you WP+BBP or bbPress-standalone installation:

On a standalone bbPress install a user’s profile is: /profile/master5o1

E.g. https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/master5o1

For bbPress 2.0 (the WP plugin) the user profiles at default are: /forums/users/master5o1/

Also perhaps /users/master5o1/, depending on settings.

E.g. http://dump.master5o1.com/wpbb/users/admin/

/wpbb/ = install directory for my WordPress + bbPress 2.0 testing site.

Basically, clicking the “member”/”key master”/etc link on standalone bbPress or the user’s username of bbPress 2.0 appears to take you to their profile.

[master5o1]

I’ve just made a post toolbar that works with bbPress 2.0, and extends a bit of kses in WP (adds <span style=""> and image posting support).

Link to zip: http://dump.master5o1.com/files/bbpress-post-toolbar.zip

The toolbar looks like this with the Link panel open:

http://dump.master5o1.com/files/images/toolbar.png

(the Bold button in the screenshot has the :hover css applied)

Under help, one can reach an ‘About bbPress Post Toolbar’ panel which states the version of the and that I made it (but no link).

The extending of kses to allow <span style=””> in the allowable tags is necessary for the font sizing, colouring, underlining, strike-through, and text alignment.

The options page in WP Admin has the following:

Use customised smilies?

Yes No (default)

Allow embedding of Youtube videos?

Yes (default) No

Allow text-alignment buttons?

Yes No(default)

Allow images to be posted?

Yes No(default)

Link to zip: http://dump.master5o1.com/files/bbpress-post-toolbar.zip

I have requested plugin hosting for WordPress Plugin Directory and I’m waiting for it to be approved, etc.

In the mean time, any comments and feedback from testing, etc would be help.
