I am trying to set my own cookies with information bbPress doesn’t keep track of to use in my forum, but I get an error saying I “Cannot modify header information.” I’m not using wordpress.

Is there an easy way for me to integrate cookies with a specific prefix or something with bbPress so I can make my own cookies? Also, if it would be easier, is there a way for me to make my own global variables in the same manner?

My goal is to find some way to store additional information so I don’t have to access my database every time I refresh the page.

Hi Everyone,

I was re-installing my bbpress onto my server to better integrate it with the server. This is the error message I received at the end of the install:

SQL ERROR!

>>> Database: actionp7_wrdp1 (localhost)

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

>>>>>> Incorrect table definition; there can be only one auto column and it must be defined as a key

SQL ERROR!

>>> Database: actionp7_wrdp1 (localhost)

>>>>>> ALTER TABLE wp_posts ADD PRIMARY KEY (post_id);

>>>>>> Key column ‘post_id’ doesn’t exist in table

What does this mean? I can no longer log in to my wordpress site with full permissions and I have no idea why. The site is blocked from the general public until launch so it was locked down with the wordpress plugin– Login Lockdown —. I’m scheduled for launch in two weeks and can’t figure out why this happened. Everything was fine before the re-install.

Thank you for all your help in advance!

Hi there,

I upgraded from 1.0.2 to 1.0.3 (deep integrated into WP 3.1.0) and now the recount tools give me erros when using the tag-recounts:

Fatal error: Call to a member function query() on a non-object in /var/www/clients/client1/web26/web/xtcmodified/wordpress/forum/bb-admin/includes/functions.bb-recount.php on line 141

Fatal error: Call to a member function get_terms() on a non-object in /var/www/clients/client1/web26/web/xtcmodified/wordpress/forum/bb-admin/includes/functions.bb-recount.php on line 167

Fatal error: Call to a member function get_terms() on a non-object in /var/www/clients/client1/web26/web/xtcmodified/wordpress/forum/bb-admin/includes/functions.bb-recount.php on line 189

Any ideas on that issue?

Best regards

Tom

This does get frustrating. I run three bbPress forums and I don’t read the buddypress forums, I don’t subscribe to any feeds and don’t log in to the WordPress dashboard unless I’m working on some Pages (I don’t use WP to blog), so there would have been no way for me to hear this news unless I came here. And still, it wasn’t posted here for two weeks.

Some may find Kevinjohn’s posts to be overly dramatic, but he DOES have a point.

Hello,

I read that works for bbpress. Is there some wordpress plugin I must install? Basically, with everything installed, how to I add an active, functional forum page to my wordpress website?

My forums- http://www.thegeekgroup.org/bb –

are running ridiculously slow. A new post takes roughly 30 seconds to a full minute to go through, and we’re getting a lot of people double-posting unintentionally. (A LOT of people) Sometimes it just times out, and people then hit refresh, and find out that they in fact posted 3 or 4 times…. or it just times out and the post is lost.

All other stuff running on my server is fine, including a WordPress install, so I have to believe it is central to the BBPress installation.

This has been happening for a few weeks/maybe a month or two. Would love insight as to how I can make this move along faster.

Hi

I am relatively new to wordpress and bbpress and I am trying to install a forum onto one single page in my wordpress blog.

I installed BBpress but now when I try to visit my sie it takes me to my BBpress log in (please see http://www.the8lossplan.com)

I did not want my whole blog to be a forum, have I put the files in the wrong folder or is there something else I have done wrong?!

Please help – for a university project I absolutely have to finish tonight

Thanks!!

If anyone knows how to set this up for me I’m happy to give them my details to help set up?

I am using GoDaddy as my webhosting.

hallo there. I’m having trouble finding a way to get soundcloud embeds working within the bbpress that comes with buddypress. While the soundcloud plugin makes it straightforward to embed the players into standard wordpress posts, it isn’t recognised by bbpress. Has anybody had an experience of getting soundcloud embeds working in bbpress?

Any word if this version will play better with login integration on WordPress?

I want to be able to perform a bulk delete of spammed topics and posts on my form? I have 100’s of spam topics and it would take forever to delete them all?

Is there a plugin that would do similar to wordpress where you can use checkboxes, select all the topics and perform a bulk delete?

Cheers

Upgrade the same way you upgrade wordpress.

You can install the new version over the old copy, just don’t delete anything.

Just make sure your template directory is not the same as bbpress default (kakumei) which you seem to be using “mytheme” so that’s fine.

bbPress 0.9 users should install my unofficial “block-long-queries” mini-plugin to avoid the security bug that 1.0.3 fixes and similar unknown attacks in the future.

(it also works in 1.0 and WordPress)

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Block Long Queries (for bbPress and WordPress)

*/



if (strlen($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'])>255 ||

preg_match('@(eval|base64|unescape)[^a-zA-Z0-9]@si',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']))

{

header('HTTP/1.1 414 Request-URI Too Long');

header('Status: 414 Request-URI Too Long');

header('Connection: Close');

exit;

}

They just announced it to the world this morning so I hope the 1.x users have upgraded to 1.0.3

http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2011/Mar/155

I suspect it was not enough time but there never is.

Note that my “block-long-queries” mini-plugin will protect you from this kind of attack and other yet unknown ones via the URL (GET requests)

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-103-released#post-84690

It will work in both bbPress and WordPress

There is really no reason to allow URIs to be longer than 255 characters but apache will allow up to 4000 by default which can carry a massive payload. I have seen some wordpress installs that need that limit bumped up to 320 or even 512, something about the akismet plugin needs very long URIs for some bad reason.

Alright, so after running the install. I get these errors:

Your installation completed with some minor errors. See the error log below for more specific information.

I have tried dropping all the bbPress tables and reinstalling it, but the problem still persists. I get this error message everytime after running the install script. I am running PHP 5.3.5 and MySQL 5.5.8 on a WAMP localhost server. Also, I am trying to integrate bbPress with my current WordPress blog…

Thanks in advance,

I don’t understand what you did. When you change the folder name, the pretty permalinks gets confused. All you have to do is go into permalinks settings and save without making any changes. This works the same way in WordPress.
