Solved my problem. It was coming from

#

$bb->wp_table_prefix = false; // 'wp_'; // WordPress table prefix.

#

$bb->wp_home = false; // WordPress - Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash

#

$bb->wp_siteurl = false; // WordPress - Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash

I had set the urls only to domain.com/directory, when I added the http and www it worked fine.

bbPress now has a tiny FAQ section in its Documentation.

For now, it covers the following topics.

Pretty Permalinks.

Useful Plugins when integrating with WordPress.

Where to put custom plugins and templates.

[planetphillip]

This is what it should look like:

$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_'; // 'wp_'; // WordPress table prefix.

I made the point about TRUE becasue it seems that you never set it to TRUE, you just add the correct prefix.

[Aaron]

When I use this option

$bb->wp_table_prefix = false; // 'wp_'; // WordPress table prefix.

Set it to true, and use my prefix, I am running into this error:

bbPress database error: [Table 'dbname.1users' doesn't exist]

SELECT * FROM 1users WHERE user_login = 'ergate' AND SUBSTRING_INDEX( user_pass, '---', 1 ) = '*****[moderated]*****'

bbPress database error: [Table 'dbname.1users' doesn't exist]

SELECT * FROM 1users WHERE user_login = 'ergate'

Even if I intentionally put the wrong db prefix, it still gives this same error.

But as long as I use keep using the old integration code in the config file

// use the WP user table for your bbpress user list

define('CUSTOM_USER_TABLE', 'wp_users');

the login works just fine.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Those two line look fine to me.

You are definitely missing files, though: http://www.thai-boxing.org/muay-thai-forum/bb-includes/

Not all of them are there.

Are you trying to integrate bbPress with WordPress? That would explain why bbPress did not complain that wp-functions.php was missing.

[planetphillip]

I had the same problem, but after reading the Ulitmate bbPress Guide (http://www.devlounge.net/articles/the-ultimate-bbpress-guide/1/) I realised I had made mistakes on these lines of my config file:

#

$bb->wp_table_prefix = false; // 'wp_'; // WordPress table prefix.

#

$bb->wp_home = false; // WordPress - Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash

#

$bb->wp_siteurl = false; // WordPress - Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash

I replaced the FALSE with TRUE instead of adding the actual urls and the'wp_'. Your problem might be completely different but maybe you made the same mistake as I did?

As a side note it seemed obvious to me that if it wasn’t FALSE then I should set it to TRUE, but maybe not everybody agrees.

Yes, I meet the same issue that I can’t login with my wordpress username. I used Dreamhost as webhosting.

[chaaban]

i’m a total newbie in bbpress … but in wordpress you could use instead of the url .. the blog url example :

get_settings(‘siteurl’);

to get the blog url …

[gnawph]

Oops, removed my site specific urls.

Well, the point of the entire plugin is to integrated with WordPress. I wouldn’t want to have my smiley images stored in two different locations and I’m not entirely sure were to edit my default WP smiley locations.

[gnawph]

I wanted that functionality as well so I ripped some WP code, played around, and finally got something I could use. This is a highly sloppy work as I am out of practice and not really a great PHP programmer anyway. The plugin is mostly a rip of the WordPress code with a filter. It is not elegant or tested completely but so far it has been getting the job done.

Note: This plugin will not work without a default install of WordPress.

You have to create a directory called /my-plugins/, copy this code into a file called whatever-you-want.php, upload and enjoy!

Feedback appreciated! Maybe I can improve on this and increase my PHP/*press skills.

As I did for wordpress many times in various customization articles and free released themes, I have begun to do the same for bbpress in support of the Automattic team and their excellent scripts.

The Ultimate BBpress Guide goes over installation, customization, and even demonstrates some things that can be done to modify the forum homepage. I tried to be as precise and accurate as possible, so if I made any mistakes anywhere let me know so I can get them corrected quickly.

Let me know if you find this helpful or not.

No one..

My wordpress username doesnt contain spaces or anything like that, it’s simply “ocean”

Plugins

Using Plugins

To use a plugin, simply create a directory in your main bbPress directory called my-plugins and put the plugin file in it. bbpress does not currently have a plugin activation/deactivation interface like WordPress’. Any .php file in your /my-plugins directory will be run.

https://bbpress.org/documentation/customization/

The problem is (perhaps) there is no variable in config.php to indicate the language file to be taken in acount (as it is the case for wordpress)

[plasticdreams]

Hi.

A few japanese users and I are trying to localize.

They say:

1. put your-lang.mo into bb-inclues/languages/;
2. add define (‘WPLANG’, ‘your-lang’); in config.php( line 56 is fine);
3. add load_default_textdomain(); in bb-settings.php(line 135 is fine);
4. replace ABSPATH to BBPATH in bb-inclues/i18n.php.

…and these fixes are work well.

I seem to be having trouble logging in at all in bbpress. I integrated it successfully with WordPress, but I can’t login with my wordpress user name and password. I figured, something must be up, so I registered a new account in bbpress to try it out – password was mailed and everything – and when I went to login, still nothing. The page refreshes but goes nowhere and doesn’t say I’m logged in. Seems like a mod rewrite issue, but I can’t figure out what it is. During the initial install I set the config to clean urls, then used an .htaccess like the following:

# BEGIN BBPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /location_of_install/

Options +MultiViews

</IfModule>

# END BBPress

After doing so I kept getting 404’s when clicking on topics, etc (only to find out later I needed to fix my url at the beginning of config). Now everything is working except logins. Any ideas?

[julio19]

Hi

Is bbPress supposed to create an .htaccess file for mod_rewrite URLs? I was expecting this, like in WordPress, but there wasn’t a file after install. Should I just create my own .htaccess?

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

I’ve updated the Registration integration documentation to link to a couple plugins you may find useful when integratinog WordPress and bbPress.

WordPress Plugin: http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/438

bbPress Plugin: http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/430

When we have a better place to put these plugins, I’ll let you know.

Making Plugins

bbPress has a plugin API that functions exactly the same as WordPress’. All the familiar functions such as do_action(), add_filter() and so forth are found in bbPress. One of our goals is to make bbPress as pluggable as possible. If you have suggestions for new hooks or other improvements, please let us know.

https://bbpress.org/documentation/customization/

[Stefano Aglietti]

I put the same language config string that WordPress use setting a constat named WPLANG, i tried to set BBlang too.. but the translation didn’t work, so or the config line is wrong or the gettext function didn’t work yet

[Matt Mullenweg]

bbPress uses the exact same translation framework, gettext.

Large parts of it have already been translated as part of WordPress.com, but we don’t want to localize the default templates until we have proper themes. (Like in WP.)

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

If you define('WP_BB', true);, you still have to call the WordPress script yourself.

put require_once('../wp-config.php'); (or whatever the right path is) in bbPress’ config.php.

[klasen]

Hello, installed the recent 0.72 version and having some issues. Trying to use it integrated with WordPress install. BBPress doesnt seem to recognize any wordpress users that have a space in their name. I have some wordpress users with spaces in their names (which function just fine in wordpress) and they are unable to log into bbpress. Users without spaces in their names log in just fine.

A couple of other issues which I havent dug into yet:

– If I try to activate the option for loading wp every time, I always get this error: “Fatal error: Call to undefined function: __() in /home2/klasenus/public_html/forums/bb-includes/capabilities.php on line 27” Works fine without it. Not sure if I really need it, but want to have full integration of bbpress into wp

– With mod_rewrite set to true, if I try to navigate within bbpress I get redirected to my wp 404 page as the bbpress page cannot be found. About the only link that works in bbpress is the new topic link

Any help would be appreciated… I will keep chugging…

I love the new design, and the fact that it integrates with WordPress really rocks. If only there were some ‘frills’ to it.. Ah well, I’ll definatly have to try it out in the future.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Here they are at last, without a hitch!

Ok, without two hitches. We did have one false start.
