Hello,

My bbPress and WordPress Admin username and password is the same for both databases: bbPress was integrated into WordPress MySQL tables during installation and configuration. Consequently, bbPress and WordPress seems to share the same cookies reason when I logged into one as Admin, I’m logged into the other as Admin; the same is true when I’m logout out.

The same is not true, as the above, with a new member registration within bbPress or WordPress. When I’m registered as a new member into one, I’m not registered into the other: the new bbPress registered member is not automatically registered into WordPress and vice versa.

How can I resolve? Thanks for your support.

The WordPress in question: http://www.patrimoineacadien.com

bbPress: http://www.patrimoineacadien.com/bbpress/

bbpress-integration.php and display-name.php are installed and configured.

In addition, I tested registeration within bbpress, but it didn’t registered within my integrated WordPress. What’s wrong?

Check over here my yucky bbPress. There must be something wrong with my bbpress installation:

http://patrimoineacadien.com/bbpress/

After bbpress installation, I received an email with the following information:

Your new bbPress site has been successfully set up at:

http://www.patrimoineacadien.com/bbpress/

You can log in to the administrator account with the following information:

Username: *moderated*

Password: *Your WordPress password*

I can’t access bbpress admin; I’ve use the same Admin username in bbpress installation as my WordPress Admin username. I get error message: Internal Server Error…

I’ve checked my WordPress MySQL tables, and bb tables are present within the same location.

bbpress-integration.php and display-name.php are active plugins.

Hope you can help.

If it’s not integrated (my wp+bb isn’t) then this plugin will probably work for you.

It does a little URL processing to work out what is being linked and based on that will return the number of topics matching a tag, the number of topics in a forum or the number of comments in a particular topic.

If I am not mistaken it looks like he already has an integration done. mjfiszman is that correct?

If so how did you set this up? or are you doing this manually?

If it is integrated (eg. calling bbpress functions on the wp page) did you try get_topic_posts()

[ear1grey]

To redirect users to a forum (e.g. see the bottom of this article), I wrote a tiny plugin called bbpress-instead.

I’m going to add a count capability now (for example purposes), so since it’s GPL (natch) feel free to embrace and extend

I run a WordPress blog and bbPress forums at Nearthwort Obtain.

In order to keep all discussion centralised, blog posts direct users to a corresponding topic in the forums for commenting.

If possible, I’d like to display a note next to each “Discuss” icon at the bottom of blog posts indicating how many comments have been posted in the post’s forum topic.

Is this possible?

Thanks for any help.

When would you expect for bbPress templates to be produce in great quantities and availability, sales or free downloads, this compared to WordPress templates history availability?

Pardon my probable ignorance, but I was working on modding a wordpress theme to work with my bbPress install. I was wondering how to make it so that posts alternate color.

[d3x7r0]

So I needed a simple forum to go with the wordpress install I was about to use to revive an old forum I have as a news blog with a small comunity on the side and I decided to use wordpress and BBpress for the mix. I obviously had to make them connect and so I did, here’s the result: http://new.ngagept.net/

I was just unable to add gravatar support to my forum, can anyone help me with that?

bbPress no longer uses the dropdown menu (what if your blog had thousands of users on it? It’d be really hard to find you!).

Instead, you should be able to enter your WordPress account’s login name into the form as you install bbPress.

But, there is a problem with your config.php

The values for $bb->akismet_key, $bb->wp_table_prefix, $bb->wp_home, and $bb->wp_siteurl should all be contained in single quotes (') like

$bb->wp_home = 'http://patrimoineacadien.com';

EDIT: I removed some potentially sensitive information from your post above.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

ear1grey,

Actually MultiViews looks for topic.php if it hasn’t found topic/, but otherwise you’re spot on.

You can also use RewriteRules which forces the server to do the same thing ‘manually’.

hywl51,

When you request that URL, Apache’s MultiViews or RewriteRules (whichever you are using) loads topic.php. That file then prepares a bunch of data and displays it with my-templates/topic.php (If that file exists) or bb-templates/topic.php (otherwise).

If you are familiar with the way WordPress works, it may not help much This is one area where WordPress and bbPress are quite different.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

berg80, thanks for the info. The documentation has been updated: https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

bbPress’ table prefix should never be the same an WordPress’. That will cause many problems, as you may have experienced.

bbPress uses the following tables. Don’t delete the ones marked with a *, since WP uses those too (hence the problem).

forums

posts*

topics

topicmeta

users*

usermeta*

tags

tagged

These all look like bb_forums (or whatever bbPress’ table prefix is in your case) in your database.

[worrypascanada]

I beleive you… Don’t worry, I don’t blame your article. It’s very well written; no joking .

Thanks for your support. By the way, nice to meet you.

Hope you can help.

Here is my config.php:

define(‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘per my WordPress wp-config.php’); // The name of the database

define(‘BBDB_USER’, ‘per my WordPress wp-config.php’); // Your MySQL username

define(‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘per my WordPress wp-config.php’); // …and password

define(‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘ localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’; // I chose that my bbPress prefix start with bb_.

$bb->domain = ‘www.patrimoineacadien.com’; // Not sure which domain to choose here? http://www.patrimoineacadien.com is my WordPress domain.

$bb->path = ‘/bbpress/’; // My bbPress folder is title bbpress as shown in this FTP path: (/public_html/blogue/bbPress). My WordPress folder is title blogue as shown in this FTP path: (/public_html/blogue/bbPress).

$bb->name = ‘Babillard PatrimoineAcadien.com’;

$bb->admin_email = ‘** MODERATED**’;

$bb->mod_rewrite = false;

$bb->page_topics = 30;

$bb->edit_lock = 60;

$bb->gmt_offset = -4; (Eastern Daytime)

define(‘BBLANG’, ‘fr_FR’);

$bb->akismet_key = ** MODERATED**;

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ** MODERATED**; // I’m sure about my WordPress database prefix!

$bb->wp_home = http://patrimoineacadien.com; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash

$bb->wp_siteurl = http://patrimoineacadien.com; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash

When I add wp_home & wp_siteur1 URL as http://patrimoineacadien.com , I get the following error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘:’ in /home/patrimoi/public_html/blogue/bbpress/config.php on line 53 at http://patrimoineacadien.com/bbpress/bb-admin/install.php?step=1 . I retrieve this URL http://patrimoineacadien.com under my WordPress Options General.

You’re doing something wrong in the config. (Don’t blame my article )

Chances are, your WP information is not matching up in your BBpress config. Post your config file here (just take out the db passwords) and I’ll be glad to help.

I installed the forums per the directions and used a sub-directory of WordPress (will move to subdomain after I get it all figured out) .

When I went to the install page I got the warnings:

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/B/l/u/BlueEyes61/html/info/forums/config.php:1) in /home/content/B/l/u/BlueEyes61/html/info/forums/bb-includes/pluggable.php on line 39

Although I got it all installed when I try to login or logout I get these errors. I am using the integration plugin for WP as well. The forums are located at:

I remember having this problem with XOOPS once but cant remember how I fixed it.

Hello again,

Consider that I’m using http://www.devlounge.net/articles/the-ultimate-bbpress-guide/1/ guide to install bbPress, I was brought to the forum setup screen, but my WordPress admin account username is not in the dropdown menu listing. There’s no dropdown menu listing. Without this menu listing, my WordPress integration will not be possible: forum admin login will not be the same as WordPress.

How can I resolve? I’ve tried many different combinations within Config.php with no success in obtaining the account username in the drop down menu listing.

What do you suggest?

[Tammy Hart]

It would be great if there was a plugin that would allow members to upload images either as attachments or to be used inside the post, kind of how in wordpress when you’re writing a new post or page, you can upload a picture right there and then use it.

[coldcn]

Is it a bug? I cannot log in with my admin account to the forum which works with wordpress.

I cannot find the table named bb_users.

[Atsutane]

Most likely there is some plugin for wordpress that are using the same name as bbpress function. Try disable that plugin to see it work or not

[berg80]

I upgraded from WP 2.0.2 to 2.0.5 and everything seems to work now with the user integration. Maybe it should say somewhere you need the latest version of WordPress.

[berg80]

Basically the same thing is happening to me. I have the bbpress integration plugin installed on my WordPress blog, but when I register on BBPress, no default role is assigned for that user in WordPress. When I look at the Users tab in WordPress, no group is identified for that new user.

[Chris_K]

[preface: I’m just a simple WordPress support moderator, which uses bbPress]

It is very (very) conceivable this may be a dumb user question… but I’ll ask anyways.

Is there a way to get post dates in the support forums (or any bbPress forum) to show the time in my time zone?

Editing my user profile and poking around, I don’t see an option to set my proper time offset (I’m GMT – 7).

I know it’s not a huge deal, but it’d be keen to see!
