MemberOK some more info. Background: I’m trying to install bbpress 1.oAlpha4 to integrate with WPMU and BuddyPress, following the instructions from here https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk/bp-forums/installation-readme.txt
So. I’ve uploaded the bbpress files to forums.wearelabor.com. I’ve gone there in my browser and started the installation process. Got the bb-config.php created, good. On to WP integration. I’ve clicked yes I want to integrate and yes on cookie integration and here’s where my problems are.
WordPress “auth” cookie key
– have that, found in wp-config.php, entered
WordPress “auth” cookie salt
-supposed to be the value of auth_salt found on the wp-admin/options.php page but I don’t see anything like it there. (Help?)
WordPress “secure auth” cookie key
-found at wp-config.php, entered
WordPress “secure auth” cookie salt
-supposed to be found at wp-admin/options.php but its not there. BUT I did find it at wp-config.php. What should I do?
WordPress “logged in” cookie key
-found at wp-config.php, entered
WordPress “logged in” cookie salt
-supposed to be found at wp-admin/options.php but its not there. BUT I did find it at wp-config.php. What should I do?
Any and all help appreciated. This is quite frustrating.

Keymaster@Sam:
You know, I think about this everyday, but between you and me (and everyone else reading) I’m convinced more and more that no one really has any idea how to code XHTML, or what kind of object should rightfully be used to encapsulate content.
For the first 20 years of the modern web, everything was done in tables. For the last 5 years of the modern web, everything is being done in lists, divs, and paragraphs. Half the time things are marked up as paragraphs even though they aren’t actually blocks of text. The other half things are marked up as lists even though they contain 1 link. (WordPress and bbPress both suffer from this type of issue, specifically in the pagination and previous/next functions.)
One thing that the Smarty engine does promote, is keeping ALL of the XHTML out of the source code, allowing “template designers” to focus ONLY on the mark-up and then inserting the Smarty tags where the dynamic content belongs.
I’ve noticed that Automattic products tend to really try to think ahead in terms of a typical layout and what their audiences want, and that’s not a bad idea usually… But when the audience changes their mind and wants to go from UL’s to DL’s, inserting a DT becomes impossible and the function is immediately flawed by design. A Smarty type of engine avoids this all together.
Smarty is way too big and fat to include in either WP or BBP in my opinion. We’d be better off with a slimmed down version that’s used in CHBB, which I would LOVE to see implemented personally…

in forum Installationrootf
MemberHi.
I want to create a forum on my WordPress 2.7 website and I decide to try bbPress, but I don’t know what integration method will be the best and I wonder wheter it is possible at all. I want fully integrated bbPress and WordPress (common header, footer, user database, etc., saying simply bbPress included in a WordPress page). Could you help me? Or maybe should I use an other script like Simple:Press Forum, punBB or phpBB? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
rootf.

MemberHere were my errors:
>>> Fetching missing WordPress cookie salts.
>>>>>> WordPress “auth” cookie salt not set.
>>>>>> WordPress “secure auth” cookie salt not set.
>>>>>> WordPress “logged in” cookie salt not set.
This is clearly the issue. However, when I went to where I was told these things would be, http://wearelabor.com/wp-admin/options.php, I didnt see any reference to them.
What am I doing wrong?

Memberi am try tu use forums in buddypress
i am suffering pb in wpmu 2.7 (trunk 1574) and bbpress (1.0 alpha 4) integration both in update or brand new installation.
wpmu install in root
bbpress in /forums
user integration is ok
log in integration not
this seems ok :
You will also have to manually ensure that the following constants are equivalent in WordPress’ and bbPress’ respective config files.
WordPress (wp-config.php) bbPress (bb-config.php)
AUTH_KEY BB_AUTH_KEY
SECURE_AUTH_KEY BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY
LOGGED_IN_KEY BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY
the bb press integration plugin gives me this line to add in wp-config :
define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);
nothing about cookie domain : is this a pb ?
i added the cookie salt information looking manually to wp-config because a have an issue somewhere :
in bbpress/settings/integration it tells that we have to got to the page :
http://domain/wp-admin/options.php
to get the information about cookie salts
on this page i have those errors (both on new and update install of wpmu 2.7)
Warning: array_search() [function.array-search]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /home/$$$/www/wp-admin/includes/plugin.php on line 1044

and about a solution for my wpmu+bbpress integration

ParticipantIt should be possible to load both language files, in fact some changes were made to WordPress to address the problem specifically.
Can you link to the language files you were trying to use?
* Side note: We should probably move where languages are stored. A
my-languagesdirectory would probably be the way to go.December 16, 2008 at 2:35 pm #69998In reply to: Windows (Apache2/PHP/5.2.6/MySQL5.1.30)

ParticipantWell, that’s different…

But I just realised you are using bbPress 0.9 – the bb_mail() function has been replaced in 1.0-alpha with one more like wp_mail() in WordPress.
It was replaced in part because people had problems sending from Windows environments. You have probably just pinpointed the cause of that. Just a few months too late unfortunately!
For now I would just hack the core of 0.9 if I were you – it is unlikely to see any more updates. The replacement function in 1.0 should take care of this, although I would appreciate it if you could test 1.0-alpha for the same problem if you have some time.

ParticipantI suspect that user just never visited the bbPress portion of your site.
There are four ways a user will get their role set in bbPress once the role map is setup:
- If they register through bbPress (will also give them a role in WordPress)
- If they register through WordPress, then visit bbPress whilst logged in
- If they register through WordPress, then logout, then log back in through bbPress at some stage
- If they register through WordPress, then an admin re-saves the role mapping in bbPress
December 16, 2008 at 11:34 am #69938In reply to: bbpress is slow like godaddy says?
_ck_
ParticipantGoDaddy is massive and would have thousands of support staff, probably outsourced.
There is far too much competition in the hosting world to stay with such a provider, find yourself someone better and smaller that actually cares about losing a customer and doesn’t put 1000’s of clients per box.
My best advise would be to get someone with cpanel because it far easier for the host and far easier for you and makes the account extremely portable between other cpanel hosts. I can literally move an entire account between servers in 1 or 2 minutes flat, all settings, mysql, email, dns, structure, etc. preserved exactly (and you don’t even need to know linux).
Avoid the really big hosts, avoid the really little hosts.
If you can afford it, get a VPS so you have much more control but don’t get a small, underpowered VPS which can be worse than shared hosting.
Do not get a host that uses NFS (networked file storage) like Dreamhost because that makes file intensive programs like WordPress/bbPress slow. GoDaddy probably uses NFS too but I am not positive about that.
Quick summary:
- get a host with cpanel
- make sure the host does not use NFS
- make sure the host does not run PHP in safemode
- only get a VPS if it’s reasonable size/performance,
as small VPS are worse than quality shared hosting
added: one more tip for choosing a hosting provider – if they use the word “unlimited” in any of their advertising, find another provider.

KeymasterHey Sam, when registering through WordPress, did you mention that your WP Integration plug-in would adjust the role in bbPress somehow also? I have a new user that registered through WP and while I’m not sure if they’ve ever logged in or not, they do not have a role set in the BBP side. I could manually map them…
What would help you in this situation? Would you like me to dump the meta data for that user along with their respective user table entry?

John James Jacoby
KeymasterIsn’t this what the role mapping in the bbPress Admin panel WordPress Integration page is for? It should map the existing users as you specify according to their preexisting WordPress roles.

December 15, 2008 at 5:22 pm #4439Topic: Sanitizing user names
in forum Troubleshootingganzua
MemberHi!
I have an old issue with bbpress-wppress integration that I can’t solve.
I use this wp-plugin to sanitize user names;
What this plugin does is that whenever a user registered as “Joe” tries to log in as “joe”, “jOe”… can login.
However bbpress is not compatible with this plugin, when activited bbpress reports this error;
Catchable fatal error: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string in
wampwwwwordpresswp-includesformatting.php on line 453In formatting.php line 453 obviously we have wordpress function sanitize_user and it seems bbpress doesn’t like to have this function modified.
I just wanted to ask if anybody knows another way to sanitize usernames because it is a pain to have all the time people complainig that they can log in because they registered as “Joe” and try to access with “joe”

MemberHi!
I’m giving a try to a deep integration. I want to load bbpress in my wordpress theme so I have a modified bbpress kamukei where I load wp header, sidebar and footer.
I installed bbpress 1.04a, I activated the new plugin, edited wp-config.php as plugin required, I founded that all this still didn’t load wp header and I modified bbpress bb-config.php with;
define('WP_BB', true);
if ( !defined('DB_NAME') ) {
require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-config.php');
}Now, it seems everything works ok; bbpress loads wp-header, I have access to bbpress control panel, both, admin and users can post, I can log out… I’m going to keep my beta-testing and I’ll further report but I think Sam did it
so CONGRATULATIONS. I’m not sure that I’ll want to load bbpress functions into wordpress so far because what I need is all the contrary; to load wordpress into bbpress so I can have a very simple and integrated forum. However, having the bbpress control panel integrated into the wordpress panel would be great.
The idea of bbpress as a plugin is very nice but Sam is totally right when he stated that we have a stronger foundation as a stand alone. Perhaps that little plugin as a “bridge” is the way to go.

MemberBecause bb-rating has display on post(I saw from wordpress.org plugin page). But wp-postrating, I don’t know how to display star pics(just display star can’t give score.), cause I want rating star show index page that visitor can see but can’t give score.
ok, I would try wp-postrating again.

ModeratorOkay, I made a ‘double’ cookie by doing this:
$bb->sitecookiepath = '/blog/';but it still won’t let me be logged into BOTH at once. Grr. I can be logged into WP and WPAdmin, or BB and BBAdmin and WPAdmin, but never BB and WP
If I don’t modify the bb-config file, I can’t log in at all to bbPress. Am I the only one who has WordPress loaded in a subdirectory, with the index kicking back to the main root? That’s about the only thing I have left to try and I really don’t want to screw up my permalinks.
Of possible relevance, the logged_in cookie never gets removed from my cookie jar on Firefox when I log out of bbPress OR WordPress.
Edit: Or maybe I’m just a frackin’ idiot.
I repasted in the Auth Keys and now it’s working… Dude. I keep telling people at work that the average IQ drops 50 points between Thanksgiving and New Years (which is how I explain people making boneheaded mistakes). The new guy asked ‘Does that mean us to?’ and I said “Of course! Watch, you’ll make the stupidest, most obvious screw up in your life in a week or so.” Today was mine, apparently.
I’m going to hang my head in shame.

Moderatorconfigure the WordPress plugin and also follow it’s instructions to modify the wp-config.php file in WordPress.
Did that.
Further to this, you should clear out any manual settings you have made to bb-config.php in bbPress and re-check your settings in the “WordPress integration” page in bbPress admin.
Did that.
Then clear all your cookies and retest.
Did that (went in to Firefox’s cookies and after logging out, whacked everything from my domain).
Result: Login is not shared as I think it should be.
If I login on bbPress I can get into my WordPress admin area, but I do not show up as logged in on the WordPress ‘regular’ side. If I go to comment, it says I’m not logged in.
Also, if I have this line in, I can’t log in to both at the same time:
$bb->logged_in_cookie = 'wordpress_logged_in_<long string>';I think clearly something’s wrong on my end, but damned if I can sort out what!
EDIT!
I watched my cookies as I logged into bbPress after being logged into WordPress.
WordPress makes two entries for
wordpress_logged_in_<long string>! Both have ‘Domain’ of.domain.net, and then path of/and/blog/bbPress has one entry and it has Host of
domain.net(no leading . ) and path of/I fixed the host/domain part by setting
$bb->cookiedomain = '.domain.net';but I’m pretty convinced this double existence of the logged_in cookie is what’s screwing me up. -
