Have you got any plugins running?

I had this error, and removed all my plugins. Error gone.

I began adding them back one by one until I found a few which were causing problems.

Sadly, the wordpress integration plugs were what was giving me this specific error, but admin can post anything, and a couple others were causing problems, so they’re gone now and my forum works fine.

Just a thought.

Hi guys,

I am currently looking into deploying a site powered by WordPress. I have a phpBB3 forum (with no users) which I would like to keep. I have seen the wp-united plugin for phpBB3, but it isn’t currently being supported. The option of using bbPress seems good to me, but I would like a seamless and fully functional integration with both WordPress and WordPress MU.

If I have to ditch the phpBB3 for the functionality I desire I will do it. I know what my potential userbase will want (post count, ranks, avatars, signatures, embed pics/vids in post, search, PM, etc). For the view, I would like a topic and post count, last post, and a description of each forum. Also subforums would be nice too.

Right now I only have a rudimentary understanding of PHP, but I know HTML and CSS, so I could style the forum myself.

I am a big fan of open source software. I only feel that there isn’t enough cooperation in the open source world. It would be awesome to see some of the best open source projects come together to create a mega kickass platform. My ideal would be (Drupal – please don’t flame me for this one -,Wordpress, and phpBB3). Drupal for the management of pages and function, WordPress for the content publishing, and phpBB3 for the forum.

When I achieve proficiency with PHP I will try to develop a universal user/session platform where the login and session is unified with whatever software you decide to install on top of it. This would be an internal database, not an openly accessible one. I have heard of OpenID, but don’t know anything about it.

WordPress appears to be the best content publishing engine out there, hopefully they become the best forum out there too.

I too am jazzed about the prospects of a WordPress powered forum.

Any opinions, best way to learn PHP, etc?

BTW, this thread is starting to sound like the beginnings of a development group. Mods, plugins, and software to follow soon.

I have found this discussion very stimulating, and would like to participate in future developments. I could deploy a site to use as a testbed.

Thanks for the help

I checked the logs and it indicated a problem with my wp theme functions.php.

It’s bizarre because I didn’t touch that file and don’t know how it could have got borked as the date of the file on the server was the same as rest of the theme install which was weeks ago.

Anyway, I uploaded a new version and I’m back in business. Perhaps the timing with the bbpress install was coincidental. Still… I’m perplexed.

[chrishajer]

Sounds like the blank pages are a 500 Internal Server Error pages (maybe.) Do you have access to error logs to confirm if that’s the case and possibly see what the error is?

[chrishajer]

Did you accidentally upload the bbPress files to the WordPress directory, then change it to a subdirectory later? I can’t think of why WordPress would be messed up after installing bbPress into a subdirectory.

What versions of WordPress and bbPress are you using?

[missbossy]

I haven’t changed the .htaccess file at the wp root.

At the bbpress root the .htaccess file has one line:

“Options +MultiViews”

By plugins I mean wp plugins… basically any form action in wp admin ends at a blank page. The form action seems to be properly executed but then before returning to the right page, it stalls and I get a blank page. The name of that page depends on the form submitted.

[chrishajer]

Did you modify the root .htaccess file that would apply to WordPress?

Also, what at the other form errors you are getting when activating/deactivating plugins (and do you mean WordPress or bbPress plugins?)

[missbossy]

BTW I don’t have the sitemap plugin which upon surfing around seems to cause the same problem.

[missbossy]

Since I installed bbpress I’m having problems with posting in WordPress.

I can post but afterwards am taken to a blank page. Eg instead of returning to /wp-admin/edit.php I’m taken to /wp-admin/post.php which is blank.

Likewise when working with pages, instead of ending up at wp-admin/edit-pages.php I end up at wp-admin/page.php – also blank.

I get other form errors when activating/deactivating plugins.

Since the bbpress install I haven’t added any new plugins.

BBpress seems to work fine.

FYI: It’s in a subdirectory of my blog (/forums).

I found the solution!

I merged the two language files into one (using gettext msgcat GNU utility)

I load the new merged language file in WordPress wp-config

I don’t load any language file in bbPress config

It works! everything is translated in WordPress + bbPress

[testosteron]

push

[Yann at WP&Co]

Same problem here: latest versions of WP and bbPress, FR_fr .mo gives same error message (Cannot redeclare class cachedfilereader).

If I get rid of the FR language setting everything works fine.

Maybe it is because WP and bbPress use the same localization routines…

I think one solution would be to merge the .mo files of both apps into one so we have to load only one language file. Because apparently if I load only the WordPress FR localization I see that common terms in bbPress are translated.

I don’t know much about .mo files, does anyone have a clue on how to do that?

my branches 0.8 and my wordpress 2.5 rc1 are integrated and the roles and doing fine in transferring

but if you are anything less than an editor you post comments as anonymous

[aitheterrible]

looks like it’s pretty much good to go

https://wordpress.org/development/2008/03/25-sneak-peek/

The software is basically done and stable, and could be released today, but we’d like to incorporate feedback from a wider audience before making it available to the general public. After a few days of your feedback we’ll set a final release date. Personally, I can’t wait

[Sam Bauers]

A lot of tickets in the WordPress Trac for 2.5 are not going to be fixed for 2.5

I’m pretty sure that the guys are working toward a first release candidate now.

[chrishajer]

You used to be able to do that with bbSync, but I have no idea if it will still work in the latest release of bbPress and WordPress.

I am running the latest build (as of now) of 0.9 bbPress and WP 2.5 Beta (yesterday’s build).

They (so far) seem to play together really well (great job on the out-of-the-box integration to you bbPress guys!).

I have a question. Is it possible to make a post in WordPress and somehow have it added to a forum in bbPress and comments added to that post in WP added to the topic in bbPress too?

How would one go about achieving this?

Thanks,

Garry

[Craig]

As some of you know, I’m new to WordPress and bbPress altogether and as I learn more I am also getting really amp’d for the new releases of both. However, after looking at the trac roadmap…

I see WP 2.5 still has A LOT of open tickets where as bbPress 0.9 has 0 tickets open. Is it just not updated or is today’s release not realistic?

[testosteron]

wich data i have to include to use wordpress functions? and

when i only login bbpress i have to type my data in wordpress to write a comment ( is that “fixable” ?

[chrishajer]

1. Yes it’s possible to make bbPress and WordPress look the same.

2. I don’t know about the widgets. I suspect if you include the WordPress functions in bbPress you could probably do that.

3. You probably want to redirect all your bbPress logins through WordPress since the WordPress registration function is more robust.

The level of integration you’re looking for is beyond what most people will help with for free. It’s all possible though (I think: not sure on the widgets since I never used one.)

[testosteron]

push!

I need help!

[howtogeek]

That plugin didn’t work quite right for me, but I was able to hack together my own hard-coded version for both bbpress and wordpress.

Thanks!

[chrishajer]

What are you expecting from integration? Integration here means the user information is shared, that’s about it. If you want your bbPress installation to look like your WordPress blog, there is more work to be done. I’m guessing that’s what you’re expecting: you want your forum to look like your blog?

[testosteron]

Hello everyone!

I have a few important questions.

I want to make a theme for wordpress and bbpress . Is it possible that i can make it so that no-one can see when he is in bbpress and wehen in wordpress?

Is it also possible to show the wordpress widgets in the bbpress sectionß

The login menue must be in both pages and wehen you login you are logged in in wordpress and bbpress automatically.

Can someone help me?
