Hey Mike,

Welcome! I’m not a dev here, but currently there is an effort to rewrite bbpress as a wordpress plugin. This process is making many plugins for bbpress obsolete. There is some discussion about making it possible to use bbpress plugins with the new bbpress-plugin in WP, but that feature is not guaranteed.

Despite the effort towards bbpress-plugin, there likely will remain a community around bbpress standalone which will continue to use the current plugins. You are welcome to continue writing plugins for the standalone version. I am not sure, however, how you should go about submitting that since I am not a dev. Perhaps jumping on the bbpress IRC channel you can find someone.

As a sidenote, from what I understand, most people use a combination of Akismet and a human test to prevent spam. For those who desire a CAPTCHA, there is already a reCAPTCHA plugin available.

Best of luck!

I want to add support for bbPress to SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam plugin.

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/

I cannot find the needed do_action hooks.

/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/bbpress

I started looking in these templates, they do not have the action hooks that would let me add a CAPTCHA:

form-topic.php

form-anonymous.php

I’ve just installed bbPress and integrated with WordPress. All was well until I renamed the file folder to “forums” from “bbPress”. Everything is working perfectly except I cannot edit user profiles! They can register and all else seems to work on the site and the Admin, just no editing the user profile pages (either from the forum or from admin).

When I attempt to edit user profile it switched to my WordPress and gives me a “Error 404: Page Not Found”.

Here is a sample URL: “http://jernigan.co/forums/profile/admin”

Hi,

I’ve been searching for some hours now but I guess I don’t find the answer because it must be an easy answer

I’ve successfully integrated BP 1.03 in my WO 3.1 and everything works fine so far.

But the forum looks like it’s another site, I mean it’s basicaly due to the template.

My wish is to have my BBPRESS installed into a WP Page (such as simple:press plugin for example) or just like it is on this very bbpress.org website !

Any clue about how to do it ?

Thanks for your help

How can I add a plugin to this site?

I am already a WordPress plugin developer. My WordPress plugins have over 2 million downloads. I made a CAPTCHA plugin for bbPress, I would like to add it. Thanks for any help.

I am logged on, went to this page:

http://bbpress.org/plugins/forum/requests

I clicked on the big button “Add your plugin”

There is no form, just this message:

---

Add Your Plugin

You can add the plugin you’ve written to the plugin directory by filling out the form below.

This form is only for plugin developers. If you’d like to see a plugin listed here, please contact that plugin’s author.

I’ve seen a few topics addressing this issue but none of them could fix it or the post was 4 years old!

I installed wordpress 3.1 in my main directory

I installed BBPress 1.0.3 in a folder in my main directory

– Both use the same database

BBPress worked perfect and I could access the admin dashboard.

I used the bbpress dashboard to integrate WP.

– mapped user roles (Key master – Administrator etc…) then saved.

– filled out the other fields correctly and saved.

Right after i saved it i was booted out of the admin and could not log-in again.

I tried using the bbpress and WP login/password, both did not work.

I compared the keys in both configs and they were correct

I compared the salts from my db to my wp-config and they were correct

I cleared my browser cache and that didn’t work

Since it seems like an internal scripting bug, How do i fix this manually???

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Mahalo in advance!

I just installed the Admin Add User plug-in. When I go to Add User, I get an error message that a file is missing: bb-plugins/admin-add-user.php on line 15. Line 15 is this: require_once( BB_PATH . BB_INC . ‘registration-functions.php’);

I cannot find the registration-functions.php anywhere. What am I missing?? I’m running bbPress 1.0.2. I specifically DO NOT want to integrate users with WordPress users.

Thanks!

Hello, I’ve been struggling 8 hours on this and I would appreciate any help

I’ve researched this high and low but cannot find an answer.

Problem: At STEP 2 of bbpress installer I try to access my wp-admin page for the requested Salts, but lo and behold – I’m locked out of wp-admin! I am shown a blank page.

WordPress and bbpress downloads share the same mysql database. bbpress is on same level as wp-admin — eg. mysite.com/forums. (see: https://picasaweb.google.com/andrews.bda/DirectoryBbpress# )

Why would my wp-admin lock me out during the bbpress installation?

Thanks in advance for any help!

bbpress 1.0.3

(((As an aside, maybe this has bearing on my problem….I did not have any auth or salt keys located within my wp-config.php file after dreamhost one click install. I had to manually copy and paste from wp-configsample.php!)))))

Try this:

– You first have to start the WordPress Loop

– Then call the get_template _part() function to get the forum template.

<?php

/*

Template Name: Forum

*/

@ePilipovic



/**

* @package WordPress

* @subpackage Default_Theme

*/



get_header(); ?>



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



<div id="forum-front" class="bbp-forum-front">

<div class="entry-content">



<?php the_content(); ?>



<?php get_template_part( 'loop', 'bbp_forums' ); ?>



<?php get_template_part( 'form', 'bbp_topic' ); ?>



</div>

</div><!-- #forum-front -->



<?php endwhile; ?>



<?php get_footer(); ?>

How can i add a custom page on wordpress theme with bbPress? Is there any function to call?

<?php get_footer(); ?>

[panosbax]

the only problem it seems is that i simply dont have “auth_salt” and “logged_in_salt” in my wp-admin/config.php in WordPress. which means I can’t add those values in integration which is why it wont stay logged on across WP/ bbpress. Can anyone explain what to do or why it’s not there?

I recently started using this WordPress PHP implementation of the Markdown http://michelf.com/projects/php-markdown/

Right now it only supports Posts and Comments. Topics and Replies don’t get aprsed.

This comes from markdown.php:

# Post content and excerpts

# - Remove WordPress paragraph generator.

# - Run Markdown on excerpt, then remove all tags.

# - Add paragraph tag around the excerpt, but remove it for the excerpt rss.

if (MARKDOWN_WP_POSTS) {

remove_filter('the_content',     'wpautop');

remove_filter('the_content_rss', 'wpautop');

remove_filter('the_excerpt',     'wpautop');

add_filter('the_content',     'Markdown', 6);

add_filter('the_content_rss', 'Markdown', 6);

add_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'Markdown', 6);

add_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'trim', 7);

add_filter('the_excerpt',     'mdwp_add_p');

add_filter('the_excerpt_rss', 'mdwp_strip_p');



remove_filter('content_save_pre',  'balanceTags', 50);

remove_filter('excerpt_save_pre',  'balanceTags', 50);

add_filter('the_content',  	  'balanceTags', 50);

add_filter('get_the_excerpt', 'balanceTags', 9);

}

How to modify the line above to be effective for Topics and Replies?

Hello,

Is there anyway that i add a link to my navigation bar with bbPress that’s opening in the same page like wordpress with sidebars and all other things around.

Example link:

http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/9774/bbpress.png

[uxtremist]

WP 3.0 / BBpress “Bechet” version 1.0.2

Inside /wp-includes/load.php I found this code:

// If already slashed, strip.

if ( get_magic_quotes_gpc() ) {

$_GET    = stripslashes_deep( $_GET    );

$_POST   = stripslashes_deep( $_POST   );

$_COOKIE = stripslashes_deep( $_COOKIE );

}

So I made a BBpress plugin that (so far) works for me.

/bbpress/my-plugins/stripslashes.php

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Strip Slashes

Plugin URI: http://www.uxtremist.com/

Description: Strips slashes from topics, tags and posts. Sort of.

Author: Adam Braimbridge <adam@uxtremist.com>

Version: 0.1

Author URI: http://www.uxtremist.com/

*/



// Make sure WordPress has been included

if (function_exists('wp_head')) {

$_GET    = stripslashes_deep( $_GET    );

$_POST   = stripslashes_deep( $_POST   );

$_COOKIE = stripslashes_deep( $_COOKIE );

}

?>

I would like to know how to start a custom bbPress loop to display the recent 5 posts of a certain forum (say Forum Test 1).

In WordPress I create custom loops like this:

`<?php $custom_posts = new WP_Query(); ?>

<?php $custom_posts->query(‘post_type=bbp_topic&posts_per_page=5’); ?>

<?php while ($custom_posts->have_posts()) : $custom_posts->the_post(); ?>

<div class=”block-2 border-top”>

<h2><a href=”<?php the_permalink(); ?>” title=”<?php printf( esc_attr__( ‘Permalink to %s’, ‘twentyten’ ), the_title_attribute( ‘echo=0’ ) ); ?>” rel=”bookmark”><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

<?php the_excerpt(); ?>

<p><?php comments_number(‘0 Replies’,’1 Reply’,’% Replies’); ?>.</p>

</div>

<?php endwhile; ?>`

How to do what I mentioned above in bbPress 1.1?

Hey! I’ve now fixed my problem

The system (Debian 6) was missing or had an old version of php5-gd installed. apt-get install php5-gd and restarting the apache2 server fixed the problem of the blank pages.

Also these code changes by _ck_ helped to improve Avatar Upload:

Delete avatar function: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/avatar-upload/page/5/#post-1093

Make identicon function work: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/avatar-upload/page/5/#post-1096

@ Darkwolf.it

1. A category can’t hold topics, its meant to only be a container of sub-fora.

2. Don’t really know what you mean..

3. Making a custom theme for a plugin, seems like a long shot. Especially since it won’t intergrate into your site and just takes it over.

4. It’s in the settings (Settings > Forums).

5. None yet, but since the topics are just custom posts, you could write up a script.

6. As said many times before, it has a high priority, but don’t expect it to be done tommorow.

@ Kasparas

This topic is about all the info you’ll get. The plugin will be the same as the standard bbPress in the end.

@ ALL

I know all of you have been waiting for a good forum plugin for wordpress for a while, but don’t ask radical script changes or widgets in this stage. Just let them build a solid script and the custom stuff will come later.

Hi

I’ve just installed bbpress on a side with wordpress, and succeded!

It was a bit complicated, and i went through installation procedure twice.

I used this as a guide:

http://wordpress.tv/2009/01/23/integrating-a-bbpress-forum-with-your-self-installed-wordpress/

During the first (unsuccessfull) installation I installed bbpress in parallel to wordpress, ex:

…/wordpress

…/bbpress

I experienced some of the same symptoms as mentioned above

During the second installation (after dropping the bb_* tables using phpAdmin) i installed exactly like in the video, ie

…/wordpress/forums

And surprise!!! It works perfectly!

Im not in a position where I can use more time exploring why this and not the other works, but someone might have an explanation.

All the best and good luck
