I have a strange problem. When I’m on the forum front page or a forum page, the timezone is set to “America/Los_Angeles “, but when I go onto one of the topic pages, it is “Etc/GMT+7”.
I am checking by using the PHP function “date_default_timezone_get()” in the header right after the <body> tag.
These two are different by an hour because of daylight saving, which is causing an issue with the simple-onlinelist plugin.
Where in the initialization of bbPress is the timezone set? Any ideas why it would be set differently depending on the bbPress page that is loaded?
If it matters, I have deep integration with WordPress MU 2.8.4a, which also has the timezone at “America/Los_Angeles”.
Thanks.
bbPress is not a forum plugin for WordPress; it’s its own separate program.
What are the basic features of a forum you’d like to see? Let us know, and we can help steer you in the right direction!
I’m looking for a good forum plugin for WordPress, and bbPress seems like a good choice. The main thing I like about bbPress is its simplicity. Dead-simple to use, with no confusing toolbars to intimidate users. However, aside from installing numerous plugins, it lacks many of the basic features of a forum. In my view, if I’m spending more effort to get something to work as well as another solution, I’ll go with the alternative.
The forum will only be used for basic discussion, so advanced functionality is not needed, but its helpful and attractive to include a few anyway. Keeping it easy and intuitive yet functional for first-time forum users is key.
Right now I’m leaning towards bbPress, but do you have any additional suggestions?
bbPress is its own standalone program, similar to how WordPress is its own standalone program. It’s definitely not just a plugin to WordPress… although there are a few WP plugin forum plugins! Sounds like you’re already playing around with one of them.
We are creating a wordpress website which requires secure forums for schools.
How it needs to work is: school forums will be set up for individual schools.
If you are parent and want to see YOUR SCHOOL forum – you will need to
a) click on your school from a drop down list of available school forums
b) register for this school forum
c) An administrator will confirm your registration (depends if you answered security question correctly)
d) From there you can happily view information (which may be confidential) on the school forum page and post/view information as well
FEEDBACK FROM DEVELOPER:
Simplepressforum – doesn’t allow us to do the above
We then Installed the WordPress MU and had a look at buddypress.
The type of functionality that we are looking for is not available in WordPress MU. Buddy Press is entirely build on the facebook concept, and not geared towards groups as we are looking for.
A solution might be to create a custom forum with all the functionality that is needed and just include it in an iframe in wordpress. Downside to this will be that the there will be 2 back-ends for managing the website, Word Press and the Forums.

Really don’t want to go custom design … I really though something like this would be simple to set up … excuse the pun …
Can anybody help?
Ok, I just installed two wordpress blogs that share the same users using this method:
They seem to work as far as logging in and out but i don’t believe they share the same cookies (due to the fact that i can log in/out of one and still be logged in/out of the other).
I’d like to make one forum installation to serve BOTH of these sites (having seperate forum sections for each blog)…is it possible to do the cookie integration between all three?
Hopefully that made sense and thank you to anyone who can help.
Hi, I’m trying to figure out how to display bbPress’ tag cloud from the sidebar in WordPress. I’ve googled a lot, but can’t seem to find anyone who’s done this.
I’ve hacked a temporary solution that displays the topic tags from bbpress as a list in the wordpress sidebar, but I’d really love to have the size formatting as well.
<?php
global $wpdb;
$taglist = $wpdb->get_results(“select name from bb_terms”,”ARRAY_N”);
$number_of_tags_to_show = 10;
for ($count = 0; $count < $number_of_tags_to_show; $count++)
{
if($taglist[$count][0])
{
$tag = str_replace( ” “, ” “, $taglist[$count][0]);
echo ‘
- <a href=”http://www.mysite.org/forum/tags.php?tag=’;
echo $tag;
echo ‘”>’.$tag.’
‘;
}
}
?>
Any suggestions for how to access bb_tag_heat_map from inside WordPress?

Topic: User Integraion
I am having problems with bbPress-WordPressMU User Integration.
Under the WordPress Integration Settings, I have correctly set the User Role Map and User Integration Cookies like AUTH, Secure AUTH KEY, etc. according to my wp-config file.
My question is, how do I know whether I have integrated correctly? By what I know, if integrated correctly, user should be log-in from either bbPress or WordPressMU and have the same access throughout. But under Users tab, I see only my account, (admin log-in) and no one else. If I try to log-in to my bbPress using my WPMU account, it doesn’t work.
