So I’m a compentent user / php programmer and maybe I’ve just skipped over the same steps over and over again? Not sure.

My wordpress install operates on the base domain address

http://www.domain.com

My forums operates on a subdomain address

forums.domain.com

Now bbpress has no problem allowing WP users to log in. However everyone is assigned to an inactive role. Also the user has to sign in again at the bbpress site.

Now I know what you’re going to say about issue 1 – user role mapping has to be setup. Done. Doesn’t work. Weird huh? I even re-submitted my user role mapping, and then created a new user in wp, and logged in as him. He also has no role assigned in bbpress.

And I know what you’ll initially ask about the cookies. I’ve verified my site and blog address (www.domain.com) and I’ve made changes to both wp and bb config.php files for the auth key, secure auth key, and logged in keys to match between the two installations. I’ve also addedd the definitions for cookie_domain (.domain.com) and cookiepath (/). I’ve also cleared all cookies and confirmed the new cookie assigned has the .domain.com address.

(Off-topic, but a lot of content on this site is related to older and outdated versions of software – this site is in dire need of updating. And since wordpress.org uses the forum software you should probably maintain a clean well documented site over here.)

I would like to have bbpress use the wordpress sidebar widget, anyone tell me how?

Secondly, Is it possible to have it so the wordpress frontpage(without using “Pages”) to show the “Announcements” Forum as posts?

[jcnetsys]

Dunno what conflicts this might cause but I modified lines 86-91 of bb-settings.php to:

if ( defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {

//$wp_filter = array();

//$wp_actions = array();

//$merged_filters = array();

//$wp_current_filter = array();

}

This prevents wordpress filters and hooks from being removed.

[jcnetsys]

When BBpress loads it wipes all actions/filters that were registered during the wordpress load. It does this so that all the feeds and sitemaps and external files (js etc.) don’t get put in the bbpress forum.

That is exactly what I want it to do so I am trying to figure out how to stop it from wiping them and will let you know how I get on.

I installed WordPress, everything working fine. Then I installed bbPress in folder called /forums. But when I enter username/forums in my browser, “I get This link appears to be broken.” I thought it was supposed to install bbPress at that point and then I would enter the database information.

[Syrinxie]

I was thinking… I’m using bbpress, wordpress/buddypress..

Buddypress has @mentions, is it possible to make Buddypress stream forum activity?

(forums is separate yet fully integrated) (including @mentions)

I am having a very hard time understanding the instructions. I have uploaded the unzipped bbpress files to the following folder:

campbellduke.com/sandbox/bbpress (sandbox.campbellduke.com – as it’s an addon domain).

When I go to sandbox.campbellduke.com/bbpress, it redirects correctly to the bb-admin/install, but the page gives the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/camp2909/public_html/sandbox/bbpress/bb-includes/backpress/pomo/translations.php on line 139

If, on the other hand, I go to: sandbox.campbellduke.com/bb-admin I end up back in my wordpress dashboard.

Help!

Im running an integrated (NOT deep integration) install with WordPress 3.1.1 with bbpress 1.0.3. Everything is setup and working great between WP and bbpress except for 1 issue…

When I login using the forum sidebar, I can only see that I logged in once I refresh the page, or go to a different page (example: click on a forum). Once I refresh, the login prompt goes away and I see the logged in user information, logout prompt etc.

Any ideas on where to start troubleshooting? Ive went through the integration guide and double checked everything.

@yutt – It’s my official job responsibility at Automatic to contribute a relatively large percentage of my time directly to the development of both bbPress and BuddyPress. The past negativity of the bbPress community has played a part in the lack of developer contributions, but I think a bigger part is the need for integrated forums not being as large as some of us perceive it to be. If everyone wanted it, more people would naturally contribute. Either way, I’m happy to keep things moving, and I’m always around if someone needs to contact me, has questions, etc… It’s also not a matter of “WordPress HQ” since bbPress is its own project, it’s more a matter of someone committing to seeing it through, which I plan to.

@qprints – Good eye

I have a blog that is integrated with my WordPress blog. Just testing it out for now.

– What options are available to keep our Spam and other spurious sign-ups? How can I protect my integrated WP user database?

Thanks!

I appreciate that “super sticky” or “stick to front” should do what you expect it to do, but it’s worth also rethinking what you want, and how it could be handled in a different way now that bbP is a plugin.

You appear to want every forum to have at the top a link to a closed topic with one post in it.

Well, couldn’t your forum guidelines content be a WordPress page? Then you could plonk a link in the relevant template and style it how you like?

(Or, have a widget area, or a special menu – something that would let you change the links and link text without having to change the template). In fact you could keep it as a topic, just link to it a different way.

I know super stickies are how forums normally handle this sort of thing, but not all the traditional fudges need to be carried across to bbP-as-plugin.

See part two of my question….

Also, if I am logged into wordpress (using my forum administrator name), and go to the forum, and then click the ADMIN link, nothing happens. The page should send me to http://montecristoowners.com/forum/bb-admin/ … but the page doesnt change.

…. that is all through the forum (since the logins are tied together).

Anyway, it just started working. Not sure what I did.

[zaerl]

however, if I go into my WordPress administration, there is NO bbpress

bbPress is not a wordpress plugin and so it cannot be administrated from the WordPress admin panel.

I just installed bbpress at my site.

http://montecristoowners.com/forum/

I’m using bbpress-1.0.3 and wordpress 3.1.1 …

The installation appeared to go smoothly (no errors, the tables for the forum appear in my database). You can see by the page above, that the forum is up and running … however, if I go into my WordPress administration, there is NO bbpress. I checked under SETTINGS, but the BBPress doesn’t appear there.

Also, if I am logged into wordpress (using my forum administrator name), and go to the forum, and then click the ADMIN link, nothing happens. The page should send me to http://montecristoowners.com/forum/bb-admin/ … but the page doesnt change.

What happened? How can I fix this?

@padams

The registration is handled by WordPress (so the back-end part of the Recaptcha plugin currently available would be the same). Only the template is shown by bbPress, and you can make use of the ‘register_form’ action.

The instalation was completed but during the integration whith WordPress, when ask me for the key master, I said admin and there was an error.

Now, I can`t re-install bbPress and in the dashboard of wordpress theres not nothing about bbPress. I used the same database of WordPress.

Any idea. What can I do now.

Thanks!.

[yutt]

@JJJ honestly, I would consider it, but I can’t tell if this is going to be another half finished abandoned project like 1.0 was. What you guys are doing is great, but if WordPress HQ isn’t commited to seriously supporting the project this time, I can’t say I’m hopeful.

Don’t mean to be too negative, I’m just saying what many are thinking.

Deleted your bumps.

Can you give us more information about your installation? What version you’re using, if you have integrated with WordPress, etc…?
