Well the other issues don’t really have error messages. One is reputation plugin didn’t work at all. Couldn’t add or subtract points from the user also wanted to change so that points were not added for merely making a posting. In regards to avatars some seem to work and not others. Others have a little ? by the name so its like an image was selected but no image displays. What we want is either a selected image or the default image that is used in this forum.
The site in question is CanadianRugby.ca
Cheers
You can change that in post.php
file of your theme. If you don’t have it then copy the file of default theme in your present theme and edit it as per your need.
Ashfame,
Thanks for replying. Here’s some more details that might resolve the problem after reading your tutorial.
I have WordPress and bbPress installed on separate databases. I know bbPress is connecting to the WP user tables because when I add a user I see it added on the bbPress side.
I did not change the default table prefixs for WordPress or bbPress per your tutorial.
On the bbPress WordPress Integration page I have all the fields filled out except the following:
– secure auth cookie salt
– WP MU Primary blog ID
– User database “user” table
– User database “user meta” table
Let me know if think the above items maybe the cause. Thanks.
yes, I did. and I checked again with the new default template, still not working. so it can’t be really a theme issue, or?
edit: yes, my theme is in the my-templates folder (now)
You also need to change bb-admin/includes/defaults.bb-htaccess.php appropiately and regenerate permalinks.
Hey there,
Currently running 0.9.4 of BBPress and the installation was from several months ago before the new update. However I would like to avoid having to update BBpress to the new version as mine is linked with Word Press. Would there be an issue if I upgraded BBPress with WP linked with it, without updating Word Press?
Anyway, the forum was originally a different forum and alot of users lost their original usernames and it defaulted to their original username. The users want to be able to change their usernames back to what they were before without loosing all the posts linked to them. So is the only way to do that to upgrade BBPress? or go in manually and change it in the database?? There are alot of users that need their names changed.
Thanks,
Adam
I’ve noticed that when I’m commenting on bbpress.org, there’s also a “tags” field.
Does that allow me to tag the topic itself? Or just my individual post? Or maybe the goal is to encourage commenters to help tag the topic?
Wondering if this is a new option or if it’s always been there but just off by default (it doesn’t show up on my 0.9 installs). I worry that it would be slightly confusing for new users… but thought I’d check what everyone else thought!
Curiously if I write the code in “functions.php” that break my login/logout/edit profile page and display a blank page. I have moved the code in “my-plugins” and no issue now.
Thank you for your information and your patience _ck_, I will try to solve my last problem by my self.
Edit: solved with :
foreach ($results as $result){$list.=" ".bb_get_avatar($result->ID, 20, $default)."<a href='".bb_get_option('uri')."profile/".$result->user_login."'>".$result->user_login." </a>";}
Which version of bbPress are you using?
If you have phpMyAdmin access, then open the usermeta table (should be bb_capabilities if you are not using shared user tables and should be wp_capabilities if you are using shared tables) and change the value of bb_capabilities to a:1:{s:9:"keymaster";b:1;}
for your user.
Hope that helps.
P.S. – Change the default table prefixes as your case may be.
Hi,
I want to add a link to the profile page:
foreach ($results as $result){$list.=" <li class='list_b'>".bb_get_avatar($result->ID, 25, $default)."<a href='" .$result->user_profile_link. "'>".$result->user_login."</a></li> ";}
I tried .$result->user_profile_link.
, but it doesn’t work, any idea ?
Thank’s _CK_ !!
But, your code doesn’t seem to work in bbPress 1.0 (I tried to add it in functions.php or directly in topic.php).
However I have no problem if I add your code in bbPress 9.0 theme.
I want to add ” <?php echo bb_get_avatar( $poster_id->ID, $size , $default); ?>
” in your code, but I can not ?
Try activating the default Kakumei theme and deleting a tag, just to be sure?
If that doesn’t work, it could be a bug with v 1.0… in which case, please post the report to trac!
Someone reported a similar issue:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-10-released#post-37903
Apparently some themes use AJAX to delete tags… those are now broken I think?
If you use a default theme like Kakumei, can you delete the tag?
John,
I do not have a WordPress install attached to bbpress. The upgrade went smoothly except for one error that said I already had forums. Other than that, everything seemed to work fine except for the registration. For registration, I am using the plugins “approve user registration”, “terms of service”, and “human test”, but I had deactivated all of these prior to upgrade and then again when testing the default theme.
Just to be sure, try a fresh copy of the default theme and see if it works?
Is this the case with the default theme?
“her worries would have continued for some time if she did have [a Gravatar]. She’d have been desperately trying to remember every single site she’d put her email on to see whether her picture appeared there”
Actually, if all the sites where her avatar appeared used Gravatar, she would only have to worry about changing one image on gravatar.com and the new avatar (or lack thereof) would then be used on all those sites. Gravatar helps alleviate the situation you describe, not make it worse.
In any case I think it would be wrong to pimp Gravatar in the actual default theme. As it exists right now, having Gravatar in the core actually helps people who want to add their own avatar solution by supplying the core replaceable function and the calls to it in the rest of the code. By replacing that one function, a plugin author can remove Gravatar altogether and replace it with something else. Another bonus for me and everyone who volunteers support time is that by using Gravatar we avoid all the issues associated with supporting file uploads in the core.
I still believe that Gravatar should be supported by default in the core, but I think it would be inappropriate to push what is effectively advertising for the service to the front end (in the default theme) and force people to make modifications to remove it. That’s not the idea of having it there at all.
Click advanced settings and check if the host name there (default: localhost) is correct.
well I don’t seee anything double on your profile page, but my test forum I linked above still shows double stuff. I tried the default theme, same problem, then I disabled the only plugin that was active adn the problem still persiststs…
besides that, there are only 2 test posts there made by me as key master and every now and then, it shows my user as inactive, if I do a refresh, it shows key master behind my name, go to another post and its inactive again
I see both of them twice. Since I haven’t seen that elsewhere, I am going to guess it’s something in your theme or a plugin. Try with the default theme and see if it still happens. If it does, try disabling plugins one at a time until the problem disappears.
Just testing version 1.0 before my big upgrade and notice that duplicate user email addresses are allowed to be used with no error or warning. Therefore allowing more than one account with the same email address.
Is this the default or have I done something wrong?
I installed the 1.0 release today and my custom theme stopped working. It worked with the previous releases.
I tracked this down to: bb-includes/functions.bb-core.php:1783 to the line if ( preg_match( ‘/^([a-z0-9_-]+)#([a-z0-9_-]+)$/i’, $theme, $_matches ) ) {
My theme name was zt2.0 meaning that the user#zt2.0 did not match and the directory BB_DEFAULT_THEME_DIR was used instead of the theme’s directory.
I just renamed my theme not to include the dot in it. I guess it would be more friendly with theme names when just to check the user# or core# prefix without limiting the chars available
Hello there,
I’m a complete newb when it comes to bbPress, so bear with me. 
I’ve installed about 6 to 8 of ck’s great plugins and they’ve all worked with no issues on the latest release (think it was on July 3rd when it was released or something?) of bbPress. Now, I understand that ck has warned everyone about the possibility of the plugins not working on 1.0, but I was wondering if anyone has these working or what I might be able to do to temporarily tweak them.
All of the plugins, except for BBCode Buttons and BBPress Smilies are working. These two are not showing up in the default theme. Any suggestions on what I might’ve missed or something that I should do to see why they’re not working?
BBCode Buttons
I have the bbcode-lite plugin active and working, so it’s not an issue there. I have bbcode-buttons directly in the my-plugins directory, so seems fine there.
BBPress Smilies
I uploaded the full bb-smilies directory to the my-plugins directory and then activated it in the admin panel. But, nothing is showing in the post boxes.
So, I could use some suggestions for those of you that found some work arounds. Thank you!
MDA tried to put in code that prevented malformed image tags. Since bbPress uses raw html and not bbcode by default, it’s always something to consider. However you can run a minimal plugin to allow any and all images quite easily:
add_filter( 'bb_allowed_tags', 'allow_images_allowed_tags' );
function allow_images_allowed_tags( $tags ) {$tags['img'] = array('src' => array(), 'title' => array(), 'alt' => array()); return $tags; }
That’s all that’s needed to permit the image tag.
It appears, that the “admin” issue is also SSL related.
In admin.php:8 bb_auth is called with implied, default scheme “auth”.
However, later on in functions.bb-pluggable.php:145, the following code is encountered:
if ( is_ssl() ) {
$scheme = ‘secure_auth’;
} else {
$scheme = ‘auth’;
}
Which, given that is_ssl() returns true, will make the validation fail and user bounced out of admin page.
For now, I replaced ‘secure_auth’ with ‘auth’ in ssl branch as well, which appears to be a reasonable hack for me.
