I believe this new error has to do with translations when you try to combine WordPress and bbPress:

wordpress integrate problem when enable BBLANG

Searching these forums for streamreader turns up lots of similar error messages.

Heya,

i’ve installed a wordpress plugin for avatars which is integrated into my wordpress by the following code:

<?php if(function_exists(cmd_show_avatar)) cmd_show_avatar(avatar); ?>

Is there any possibility to embed this code into my bbpress just for showing the wordpress avatar (because of saying my bbpress to require wp-blog-header in the config.php)?

[stereopoly]

this is what my htacces looks like in my root:

# BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

</IfModule>

# END WordPress

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.stereopoly.de$

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.stereopoly.de/$1 [L,R=301]

Redirect /feed feed://feeds.feedburner.com/stereopoly

[_ck_]

Googling shows that error is caused when running PHP as a CGI and there is a mod_rewrite conflict (or a file does not exist).

I suspect there is a conflict with mod_rewrite rules in the parent folder. Show us your rewrite rules in /.htaccess (probably wordpress stuff but there may be others).

Hey guys,

i’d love to integrate my bbpress ( http://www.stereopoly.de/forum ) into my wordpress ( http://www.stereopoly.de ), but when saying to fetch the wp-blog-header (even when taking an absolute link, my bbpress is completely giving up its job and says

Failed opening required ‘http://www.stereopoly.de/wp-blog-header.php&#8217;

this is what my bbpress’ config.php last lines look like:

/* Stop editing */



if ( !defined('BBPATH') )

define('BBPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/' );

require_once( 'http://www.stereopoly.de/wp-config.php' );

require_once( 'http://www.stereopoly.de/wp-blog-header.php' );

require_once( BBPATH . 'bb-settings.php' );



?>

can anyone please help!?

If you have access to a log file, check to see what the fatal error was, or temporarily configure your webserver to echo errors to the browser, or redirect them to a file. A fatal error can be anything: you need to know specifically what the error is to have a chance at fixing it.

Hi, iam Using bbPress with a WordPressinstallation. My WP install is in:

/blog/

and my bbPress in:

/blog/forum/

If I now log in in my WP with IE and go to the Forums all is fine. But if I do the same with FireFox I have to login again.

I’am using WordPress Plugin bbpress Integration and the WordPress Integration Plugin for bbPress. Did i made something wrong?

thanks,

Jan

Edit: If I’am logged in and go to the register.php with FireFox he mean that Iam already logged in… confusing…

Edit#2: If I log out in bbPress my Iam logged out in WP too…

[Vili]

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. I had already got to the stage of banging my head against the wall a few times because of this, but now it’s finally sorted out and my forums don’t throw up those nasty 404s when validating and being indexed by search engines.

Thanks, beaulebens!

I found this so cool and wonder if it is ever possible with bbpress too. http://www.stuff.yellowswordfish.com/simple-forum/

The only problem i find with that plugin is the speed. A little slow to load the forum page.

Hope to hear from all of you soon.

Sounds like you’re looking for WordPress support:

That’s quite a bit of help you need there.

I’m new to WordPress. I need to build a website with multiple pages for a client of mine. Here are the elements I need to include:

Biography (text, photos)

News (text, photos)

Tour Dates (event calendar)

Discography (text, photos)

Merchandise (text, photos)

Links to other sites

Blog

Media (video, music clips)

Contact Info

I need help setting it up on a server. Can someone please help me? My client currently has a domain name and hosting.

[darkling235]

I imported the wordpress functions I need but get_the_ID() from wordpress doesn;t seem to work in bbpress. Is there a bbpress function that does the same thing? It gives you the index number of posts or comments or whatever that is currently being printed by the system

[darkling235]

Is there a normal process or formula for converting a wordpress plugin to a bbpress plugin? Let’s say that it uses all the same tables and everything? Is there a way to switch it over or do you just have to re-engineer it?

[darkling235]

Ok I get it now thanks

[chrishajer]

DON’T do that!

You want bbPress and WordPress to have different table prefixes in their respective config. bb_ and wp_ , the defaults, are fine. If you try to use the same table prefix, some of the WordPress tables get destroyed due to a collision between table names because both software packages now use the same table prefix (posts , usermeta and users tables, I believe.)

What are you trying to accomplish that requires you to use the same tables for WordPress and bbPress? If you are looking for integration, this is not how you do it. With an integrated install, you still use a different table prefix for bbPress but you insert your WordPress table prefix in the bbPress config.php a little further down in the file. Then, bbPress modifies the existing wp_users and possibly wp_usermeta table.

[darkling235]

I’m trying to use the same database and tables for wordpress and bbpress but they don’t merge painlessly.

I set the table prefix in bbpress’s config to wp_ and set the database to be the same as wordpress’s. I also set the wp_prefix in bbpress’s config.

Then I tried to start bbpress but it threw a bunch of exceptions and now it will not save new posts. Can anyone help me?

I enclose it’s exceptions

Now we’re going to create the database tables and fill them with some default data.

bbPress database error: [Incorrect table definition; there can be only one auto column and it must be defined as a key]

ALTER TABLE wp_posts ADD COLUMN post_id bigint(20) NOT NULL auto_increment



bbPress database error: [Key column 'post_id' doesn't exist in table]

ALTER TABLE wp_posts ADD PRIMARY KEY (post_id)



bbPress database error: [The used table type doesn't support FULLTEXT indexes]

ALTER TABLE wp_posts ADD FULLTEXT KEY post_text (post_text)



1. Created table wp_forums

2. Created table wp_topics

3. Created table wp_topicmeta

4. Created table wp_tags

5. Created table wp_tagged

6. Changed default value of wp_posts.post_status from publish to 0

7. Added column wp_posts.post_id

8. Added column wp_posts.forum_id

9. Added column wp_posts.topic_id

10. Added column wp_posts.poster_id

11. Added column wp_posts.post_text

12. Added column wp_posts.post_time

13. Added column wp_posts.poster_ip

14. Added index wp_posts FULLTEXT KEY post_text (post_text)

15. Added index wp_users UNIQUE KEY user_login (user_login)



bbPress database error: [Field 'post_content' doesn't have a default value]

INSERT INTO wp_posts (forum_id, topic_id, poster_id, post_text, post_time, poster_ip, post_status, post_position) VALUES ('1', '1', '1', '



First Post! w00t.

','2008-02-22 15:10:39', '127.0.0.1', '0', 1)



bbPress database error: [Unknown column 'post_id' in 'field list']

SELECT post_id, poster_id FROM wp_posts WHERE topic_id = 1 AND post_status = 0 ORDER BY post_time



bbPress database error: [Unknown column 'post_id' in 'where clause']

SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE post_id = 0



Finished!

[racket-magazine]

Eek. Well, I’ll keep it on Yahoo for a little bit longer while I finish my attempts at utilizing WordPress to drive the new site design. Then I’ll see about launching it on another server. It’s bizarre to me that yahoo can’t do that, especially seeing that wordpress is an option on the backend server. I appreciate all the help!

*Wait, I didn’t catch the setting the dang line of code to false. It looks like we’re rolling. Just in time for me to be exhausted. Thanks for everything, guys.

Just installed/activated your “Human Test” plug-in. I am using bbPress version 0.8.3.1. Everything works fine. No issues.

Thank you.

By the way, I heard of WordPress for the first time on Sunday, found it a few minutes later, installed it a few minutes after that and input two years of articles I had written that same day. I installed a few plug-ins the next day and then found bbPress. Installed that the same day (Monday). It was working fine and found a matching template for both WordPress and bbPress the next day (Wednesday). With very little tweaking (mostly my errors) and no visits to the WordPress or bbPress forums for help, I am up and running with a very presentable, professional looking, and fully functional blog/user forum. Absolutely incredible!!! I am notifying my subscribers later this morning about their new resource via email. Not bad for four days of work.

Thank you good folks behind WordPress and bbPress!

Hi,

I’ve been working with bbPress, vBulletin and Invision Power Board since each one of them made their debuts and I’m very good at integrating them into many CMS, mainly our beloved WordPress blogging software and Joomla.

So I’m offering my integration services to those fustrated souls fighting to integrate bbPress, vBulletin and Invision Power Board into your WordPress blog.

Check out my site http://invisionbridge.com for the latest guides on how to integrate bbPress, vBulletin and IPB into your WordPress.

By the way, the article you reference in the link above (http://bbshowcase.org/forums/topic/better-bbpress-wordpress-integration-the-missing-faq)

Are all of the steps still necessary? Or are some of them no longer needed due to the new integration options during bbPress installation?

[_ck_]

Build 1075 of the trunk will work with WordPress 2.5 and matches the new password method. There is also talk of some kind of bbPress updated release around or with WP 2.5

Either way you are covered – just don’t modify core files (only templates and plugins) and you should be okay. You’ll only have to do a small edit to the config.php (bb-config.php) file when the time comes to match the secret key in WP to BB.
