Is this really the actual file name you are trying to include:

0php’

That should say “wp-load.php” – why the strange characters there?

Warning: require_once(0php’) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/08/DBnumber/html/websitename/forum/bb-config.php on line 65

^^ This is the source of the problems, right here. bbPress cannot find whatever file you are trying to include, in whatever location you said it was in.

Can you post line 65 of bb-config.php? Is that where you include wp-load.php?

Good News: WordPress operating successfully. bbPress forum operating successfully. “Integrated” (NOT “deep” integrated) bbPress and WordPress successfully.

Bad News: 12 hours effort to “Deep Integrate” so WordPress theme can be used in bbPress, etc.

The “require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/../wp-load.php’)” command line, when executed exactly as instructed inside the “bb-config.php” file (as shown by theme company, WordPress codex, bbPress Forum and Docs) brings up errors when the forum page tries to opens. Removed the Deep Integration code and the bbPress forum page pops back up.

Facts:

1. Databases are separate; but regular integration works fine.

2. All kinds of advice to no avail (i.e. putting code at top of .php file, removing forward slash before root, etc. etc.

3. Company programmers where I host did test on different server using basic WordPress and bbPress and attained exact same results. Not a directory issue, not a database issue, not a server issue. They also tried other methods/versions of the “require_once” code but kept getting same errors.

4. WordPress and bbPress are latest versions. WordPress is the brand new 3.0.1…requires different/new “deep integration” coding?

5. Basic integration works so the database/directory addresses are correct.

I have searched the forum and internet for solutions, prior to adding this post/topic, to no avail. Blindness and insanity creeping in…probably not due to this issue.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!

I deleted the default admin account on my WordPress site after I gave another user admin access. I just found that I can’t access my plugin menu or settings in the integrated bbpress forum with that user(not deep integration). I have access to the database so is there any way to make my admin user a key-master again? If not is there any way I can get access to those menus again?

Using Wp 3.0.1 and BBp 1.0.2

[_ck_]

There are two ways to do this.

One is to use bbPress itself and make a plugin that hooks new post, and then just quickly writes the info you want into plain html file somewhere that you just use file_get_contents to insert elsewhere.

The other way is to use my bbdb tool which allows you to query any of the bbpress/wordpress databases outside of bbpress by just including one file.

I think the first way is probably much easier.

[mackeyk]

Got it, I had skipped “Adding Keys and Salts” because I thought I already did it, but after following that step it now works.

This is one of the forums I admin and is the main playground for my plugins.

http://www.brigata.it/forum/ (warning, it’s in italian)

is a modified version of 1.0.2 paired with the blog at /blog/ (no deep integration.) Plugins used:

Ajaxed quote – customized

Akismet

bbPM – the amazing plugin of Ben. Customized in many ways

bbPress signatures

Bozo

Post Count Plus – wonderful work

zeal Avatar – modified version of the wonderful (I talk like Steve Jobs) bavatars

zaerl Easter – a plugin that hide some easter eggs on posts’ text

zaerl Editor – unreleased version with support to custom tags and emoticons. Obviously you can’t see it in action if you aren’t logged in

zaerl Emoticons – with code stolen from WordPress

zaerl GA – yet another Google Analytics plugin. But this is paired with zaerl Visibility and output the google js code only on those pages that a guest (search engine are guests) can see

zaerl Members Online – a modified version of _ck_ Members Online

zaerl Post Permalink – permalink in the form post/number

zaerl Random Description – random desc under main title

zaerl Spoiler – add the spoiler tag

zaerl Tags Administration – new tags and blah blah

zaerl URL Preview – unreleased new version that print server names after links, add target=”_blank”, auto-embed youtube videos, vimeo videos and Anobii book covers. No fancy bbcode or stuff like that. If a link is a youtube/vimeo/anobii link than it is transformed.

Finally what you see on the left is the output of my plugin zaerl Sidebar. It is my personal (and totally useless right now) attempt to bring WordPress-like widgets to bbPress. The “Membri online” is a widget registered by Post Count Plus and “Tag in evidenza” instead is a widget bundled with the plugin. Right now I have implemented these widgets: stats, most popular posts, text-only, hot-tags, views list, members online (Post Count Plus), Spam caught (Akismet), RSS and search.

If you are curious you can see transformations and tags in this topic: http://www.brigata.it/forum/topic/aiuto-forum

The theme is Kakumei with some CSS changes.

There are a lot of avatar plugin for bbPress and maybe you can get some ispiration from them. The best is bavatars.

[a2vannoy]

Thanks for the advice. I think I’ll look into the “Add Local Avatar” plugin and see what knowledge I can take from there. I do have the avatars setup inside /avatars so that’s a good place to start. If nothing else I’ll pick up plenty of PHP along the way.

[zaerl]

Well you have the same user database so you can easily access the user email. You should write a plugin that override the gravatar display functions (through the bb_get_avatar filter) and catch the images in /avatars (if exist). Sort of “Add Local Avatar” counterpart for bbPress.

This can be challenging without medium PHP knowledges.

[a2vannoy]

@zaerl, point taken.

Yes, I am indeed using the ‘Add Local Avatar’ plugin within WP, and now that someone has been so kind to point out my loss of common sense, it’s very apparent why integrating WP via sharing cookies would have no affect on a user’s avatar which does not reside in that database.

So this leaves me with a problem, how do I get avatars from a specific directory to be recognized within bbPress relative to a user based on a shared session cookie?

I’m assuming some sort of call within my post.php file which is where the avatar will be called into action, but this is beyond my limited PHP knowledge, any advice on how to proceed forward?

[zaerl]

and uploads an avatar (global or local)

It seems that you are using a plugin (Add Local Avatar) that allow your users to upload avatars on WordPress. bbPress use gravatar and cannot automagically determine that you are using that particular WordPress plugin.

bbPress is a standalone software that can share session cookie and the users database with WordPress. Nothing more.

[SantaBarbaraSurfer]

Hey drcoach, usually when I get a whitescreen in bbPress, PHP or WordPress, it usually has to do with the fact that I improperly nested code. Meaning there is some missing ), }, necessary character or a syntactical error in the code. Did you want to paste the whole code in somewhere here on PasteBin?

[a2vannoy]

The site Admin email is actually the same email I have registered with gravatar.com, which shows the gravatar fine in WP. The issue that when a new user registers for the site and uploads an avatar (global or local), their avatar then displays correctly in WP, but nothing in bbPress. I should point out that all registration of new users is handled through WP, hence the need for integration with bbPress. User integration appears to be functioning normally except no visible avatars/gravatars in bbPress.

[zaerl]

You did use an email registered on gravatar.com?

[a2vannoy]

I’m having the same issue and looking for a resolution as to why my mapped user roles (inside Settings > WordPress Integration) that are setup as ‘bbPress Member’ are being ignored and new users are automatically being labeled as ‘Inactive’ upon registration.

If this is an issue you’ve resolved since posting, any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

WP 2.9.2 / bbP 1.0.2

[a2vannoy]

I’ve recently integrated a wordpress site I’ve been working on with bbpress to implement forums. Everything from styling to user login has come off pretty well, however, I’m still having an issue with the avatars not showing up inside the forums (bbpress). User integration seems to be setup correctly as login and profile info holds when switching between WP/bbP, but avatars are still showing up as ‘Mystery Man’ icon. Site can be viewed here:

http://herexchange.com/forums/

Any guidance someone could offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[entrepreneurchic]

Yeah it happened to me earlier when I try to reinstall. However, I’m sharing this with my WordPress database. How to fix?

Thanks Chris!

a2vannoy, please start a new topic for your separate issues. I deleted your reply.

entrepreneurchic, I deleted your response to a2vannoy.

[kevinjohngallagher]

Hi John,

I don’t know why after all these years that there is a refusal to put a clear and defining sentace saying that this isn’t part of the default bbPress package. It casues so much confusion for new users.

bbPress is a totally separate standalone forum, that can integrate user sessions (login/log-out) with WordPress. Nothing more. Its important to keep that in mind because it’ll save alot of thinking from a wordpress point of view.

That said, theming bbPress is quite simple as long as you know 1 thing: bbPress won’t run WordPress commands/functions/API calls.

Copy your default bbPress theme (the rather lacking Kakumei), rename it both in folder and in the template information held in the style.css file contained within.

You now have your own bbPress theme. Congrats.

The next step is simply to copy/paste the HTML you want to replicate from your WordPress theme into your bbPress theme. If you’re not doing any special processing, I strongly suggest copy/pasting the loaded/outputed HTML from when you load your WordPress homepage in a browser.

If you want to copy/paste from your header.php file in your WordPress theme, remember and take out all of those pesky WordPress functions, and replace them with bbPress equivalent or hardcoded information.

If you’ve ever made your own WordPress theme, you’ll find bbPress follows a very similar path/structure.

Good Luck

Also consider pros & cons of deep integration – http://blog.ashfame.com/2010/02/bbpress-deep-integration-advantages-disadvantages/

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

If you are converting, then you will need to design a matching theme. thats it.

And if you are willing to go some extra, you can try deep integration for that – http://blog.ashfame.com/2010/05/match-bbpress-wordpress-theme-deep-integration/

I finally got bbPress installed and discovered that the answer to my question is, “NO!”

bbPress came up fine.

I did attempt to do a bit of hacking. I duplicated my theme from my wordpress blog and copied into my templates folder, hoping it would take. Though the theme came up in my Admin menu, the forum hair-balled all over the place when I tried to activate and use it!

Apparently, you need extra files in the theme folder than what is used in wordpress themes.

Bah!

Anyone have any instructions on converting a wp theme into a bbPress template?

Thanks!

[zaerl]

No. bbPress is a standalone software. You need a theme that resemble the one you use in WordPress

[thomas.joy]

how can the wordpress admin username/password be used in bbpress login and log in successfully (globally)

also how can the bbpress (if necessary) be used to successfully log in to wordpress and have the global admin?

same for users, which i haven’t tried yet

i’ve setup these (codes removed)

wp-config.php:

define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ”);

define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ”);

define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ”);

define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ”);

define(‘AUTH_SALT’, ”);

define(‘LOGGED_IN_SALT’, ”);

define(‘SECURE_AUTH_SALT’, ”);

bb-config.php:

define( ‘BB_AUTH_KEY’, ” );

define( ‘BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ” );

define( ‘BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ” );

define( ‘BB_NONCE_KEY’, ” );

i copied the corresponding ones to the bb-config.php one

when i log out of bbpress wordpress is still logged in..
