I switched the theme to default and tried it again. Upon hitting submit the password fields highlighted in red – which they don’t do in the Options theme.

For some reason in Firefox and only with this particular installation of bbPress my first password field auto fills. The page thinks I’m trying to change my password and wants me to fill both password fields.

Problem solved!

do follow is the opposite of no-follow, last I heard. Which is amusing since by default, it’s all do-follow

That link is interesting! Wonder if it actually happened (dated Oct 2007…)

It works like a charm…you are the best! Thanks much.

How can I decide which tags people are allowed to post?

I want to use tiny_mce, and want people to be allowed to post

* a

* blockquote

* cite

* b

* i

* p

* u

* ul

* li

* img

It seems for example like the p tag is forbidden by default…

Hello, thx for your answer.

I use the default template (theme) named kakumei.

I tried the blue version : same result.

I tried to use alpha 6, but from scratch, i had many issues. Unable to share user session with WP.

Not the same version from bbpress integration module, on the WP side. (only alpha 4.1, not alpha 6).

I tried to upload directly, but I had problems.

It’s really difficilut, an finally, i spent a day of work, and my forum doesn’t work.

I hope i’ll run ^^

facebuddy is a css make up ( so it’s not a new bp theme )

it means integrating the default one, you’ll have facebuddy theme working

Are you using the default theme? If not, try the default theme and see if you have the same error. Someone else posted this recently and I can’t recall what it turned out to be. Here are a couple relevant posts:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/can-not-post-new-topic-in-this-forum#post-25509

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-error-closed-topic#post-22226

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/problems-with-forum-is-category-in-10-alpha-6#post-25526

Also, why are you using alpha 4? I thought the basic integration screencast used alpha 6 and WordPress 2.7. There may be some bugs that were fixed between alpha 4 and alpha 6.

[chrishajer]

Looks like you are using an Apache web server. If that’s the case, edit the .htaccess file in the root folder of the website, and make the index page for the site whatever you want. It might look like this is you want a static page home.html to be the home page for the domain:

DirectoryIndex home.html index.html index.php

That says “look for a file called home.html first, and serve that if it’s present. If not, look for index.html next and then index.php.” It’s good to have at least two in there, so if the first one is not present, it can fall back on the second one.

If you host does not allow this override in the .htaccess, then you will need to do something different. This is the easiest way. Post your results after you try it.

I have created several static pages on my site (www.wbs80.com) which is using bbpress.

I would like the static page called “Home” to be the default page seen when my site is visited.

Currently the default is the “Forum” page. How do I change this?

Thanks in advance.

Very nice clean layout, I like it alot.

The poll puts itself by default wherever the topicmeta is, however you can change that. Just a guess, untested, try putting this near the top of your topic.php template:

<?php  remove_action('topicmeta','bb_polls_pre_poll',200); bb_polls_pre_poll(); ?>

@Trent. Thanks for the reply. Hmm, I hadn’t thought about it being an issue with the theme. I didn’t give gravatars a try on the default theme, so I can’t confirm. And not easy to test with the site in the wild now. I think next steps is for me to research the theme and see where that takes me. BTW, is “SVN” software version number? Thanks!

[Trent Adams]

I can’t replicate this with the latest SVN and the default theme as gravatars show up. I see what you mean though. Does it work with the default theme for you? That theme you are using might not support gravatars?

[bikemccall]

Hi,

I’m about ready to launch a BBpress forum version 1.0 alpha 6, that’s integrated with WP 2.7. Everything is looking good, but I’m not able to get Avatars (specifically Gravatars) to display on the BBPress side. They’re showing up perfectly on the WP 2.7 portion of the site.

I’ve tested a bunch of different combinations in the BBPress admin just to make sure that a bit wasn’t flipped the wrong way. I’ve tried all different levels of Maximum Ratings, Show Gravatars (checked/unchecked) and even played with the default images. No luck.

Anyone have any suggestions? Is this a known issue with V1.a.6 by chance?

Thanks.

I started with the ‘default’ buddypress theme, that comes with the package, as i may think it is more generic and easier to study on how things are done

And thats why i choose the ‘blue’ things ..

But, first thing first .. Just altering and tweaking the buddypress them a lot right now, and the next step whould be the bbpress theme, so it matches

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

It’s in here bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php (line 680):

function forum_description( $args = null ) {

if ( is_numeric($args) )

$args = array( 'id' => $args );

elseif ( $args && is_string($args) && false === strpos($args, '=') )

$args = array( 'before' => $args );

$defaults = array( 'id' => 0, 'before' => ' – ', 'after' => '' );

$args = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults );



if ( $desc = apply_filters( 'forum_description', get_forum_description( $args['id'] ), $args['id'], $args ) )

echo $args['before'] . $desc . $args['after'];

}

So you could probably whip up some function to override it.

You both have one dash, most likely, but different fonts

Hi When installing I am getting to the point http://domain.com/forums/bb-admin/install.php?step=3 where I need to *select* the keymaster account. In the screen cast video there’s a drop down menu on this page where you select admin (it’s a default drop down menu that shows Admin.

I am not getting that default and ..for some reason I need to enter a new username, email etc. This indicates to me that something went wrong and I am not talking to MU.

Can you please tell me how to correct this situation?

Thanks and regards

Johan

P.S. I am setting myself up to delete my database tables again and reinstall but need advice before I do.

[chrishajer]

1. To explain how to do this, we need to know what versions you installed.

2. https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/post-count-plus/

3. Depends on your version, I think. For the 0.9.0.4 version there are avatar plugins:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/tags/avatar

https://bbpress.org/plugins/tags/avatars

For the alpha version, I think avatars are built in.

4. https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/allow-images/ or https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/ if you want to store the images for the member as well.

5. Links are allowed by default. They’re auto-linked as well. Just type in http://www.example.com and it becomes a link (should work here.)

6. https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-topic-views/

You can find all the answers you need by searching or browsing the forums here or the plugin repository. https://bbpress.org/plugins/

The Avatar Upload works fine on my site, but I cannot access any admin functions to change preferences. I have looked everywhere. I want to change the max dimensions for the pictures because my template doesn’t handle the default 150-pixel limit very well. I already tried changing the php file through its code and re-uploaded, but that did not do anything.

The plugin states that admin functions for avatar should be available. Suggestions, anyone?

Poedit will automatically re-save the .mo file when you edit and save the .po file by default unless you’ve changed the default settings.

the mo file is in here, it’s all you need

http://ayudawordpress.com/?dl_id=96

in bbPress 0.9 put it into bb-includes/languages/

in bbPress 1.0 put it into my-languages/

and change in your bb-config.php

define('BB_LANG','es_ES');

[Billy Wilcosky]

Thank you chrishajer! There was not only a space at the top of the code, but there was also a space at the very bottom. I removed the space at the top and still got the error except it said line 142 instead of line 1… so I figured out there was a space at the bottom.

I have another question if you are familiar with this plug in. In the bb-avatar-upload.php file there is an option you can turn on that will show the avatars from thumbnails. This is turned off by default. If I turned this on, would it just create a seperate thumbnail image for each avatar? If so, what is the advantage? Faster page load time?

[bedbugger]

Actually, the huge number of topics per forum is because I did not know how to break down the forums categorically by subject when I started.

Now, I can either keep it as it is, or add some subtopics, I guess.

Most people who post don’t bother selecting a forum. So the “meta” forum (About the Forums) has almost no legit topics, and about 2000 uncategorized ones. I should have made the default: uncategorized. But it is late for that now!

Thanks again for all your help!

That’s actually very interesting, and I suspect something was wrong on there side.

Max PHP execution time is typically 30 seconds by default. There is no way it takes that long.

Unless maybe they set it to some ridiculously low number like 1 second.

The RSS for topics loads in just under one second for me however.

I do see that you allow a HUGE number of topics per forum page.

I suspect that is for google, yes?

[mspecht]

I’m having the same issue it seems line 212 of functions.bb-topics.php is where things go south. I am running bbPress is 1.0-Alpha-6 and WPMU 2.7.

Effectively bbPress tries to insert an empty string into the topic_id field, which is an INT with auto increment and of course MY SQL returns in error “Incorrect integer value: ” for column ‘topic_id’ at row 1″.

Digging into the code further the defaults array is setting topic_id = false on line 151, remove topic_id from the defaults and things work fine. Looking at trac it seems this was fixed in r2014. I’m going to install and see what happens.

Just install my bbpress theme switcher plugin, disable the dropdown.

Then replace function bb_ts_get_theme() {

with something like this (untested, will need some editing)

function bb_ts_get_theme() {

$theme="kakumei";  // default fallback

$domain=strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);

if (strpos($domain,"first-domain.com")!==false) {$theme="1st-theme";}

if (strpos($domain,"second-domain.com")!==false) {$theme="2nd-theme";}

return $theme;

}

Is there a way remove a specific forum category from the latest discussion list?

I have tried editing in functions.bb-topics.php

From

function get_latest_topics( $args = null ) {

$defaults = array( ‘forum’ => false, ‘page’ => 1, ‘exclude’ => false, ‘number’ => false );

to

function get_latest_topics( $args = null ) {

$defaults = array( ‘forum’ => false, ‘page’ => 1, ‘exclude’ => 13, ‘number’ => false );

13 being the category number I wish to remove. This does work in removing forum 13 from latest discussion unfortunately it also removes forum 13 completely lol
