Yeah, I’ve got that. Seems like this might be something to add to the next version of that plugin.

Anyway, thanks again Atsutane for your great plugin and the fast updates!

[Atsutane]

Maybe u gonna need this plugin

https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress-integration.0.74.zip

[Staffan]

Alright. I’ve done some investigations and I think I know why I get a blank space: when a new user registers through bbPress it seems like he’s not given any “display name”.

[Trent Adams]

$bb->path = '/bbpress/';

I am also assuming that you don’t want to integrate the logins with WP then as you don’t have your wordpress information for integration.

Thanks, I was just about to give up.

I’m able to successfully install the bbpress. I’m installing it in a subdirectory of my PUBLIC_HTML

directory. So I have:

public_html/bbpress

public_html/wp-content

public_html/wp-admin

etc.

I run domain.com/bbpress/bb-admin/install.php

Everything seems okay. Then I log in at domain.com/forums and bam!… nothing but Error 404 – Not Found.

I find it strange after I login I’m directed right to my WordPress template with the 404 error. Initially I tried integrating with WordPress, but now I’m trying to get this running very simply: no mod_rewrite, no integration, disabled any plugins that might be interfering (home page control), etc.

I uninstalled (dropped all bb_ tables) and reinstalled several times but same result.

Any advice?

[Atsutane]

Correct me if i wrong .. by default when a user is regis. WP will set the “display name” equal to “username”. I try the code already and i dont get a blank name Anyway maybe i will change the code to do a double check.

[larmir]

No, we haven’t. Chrishajer’s (Chris) been graciously helping me off the forum since I’m working with a private forum. He’s spent quite a bit of time on this and hasn’t found a solution. He had some great ideas, they just didn’t work. My next step is to contact my host and talk with them. They host WordPress so perhaps they know something indepth about bbPress. If I find a solution, I’ll let you know.

I do want to thank Chris for all the time and effort he’s put into this for me. Thank you, Chris.

[Staffan]

Great. Thank you! There’s only one little problem: if the user haven’t entered a nickname no name at all is shown. I guess it should be written so that if the user has a nick name – show nick name; if the user dosen’t – show username.

[Atsutane]

I update the plugin already .. Now it gonna show “display name” instead of “username” like before. Tell me how it going

[bbolman]

Yeah, I think the localhost bit might be your problem. I’m hoping soon bbPress will get an automatic installer like the newer WordPress has. That would save everyone a ton of support questions effort I feel.

Hi all, I am trying to install bbpress with my wordpress blog. I get a 500 Internal Server Error was encountered everytime i try to run the install.php. My config.php looks like the following

Does anybody know how to combine this great little plugin with the Use display name plugin? I want the it to show my nickname instead of my username.

[bbolman]

who knows…maybe CalendarPress will be coming soon. I joke, but really, I would try integrating wordpress and bbpress, and then using the event calendar plugin for wordpress. It is not full-screen unfortunately, but it is a very good calendar for keeping track of events.

[Trent Adams]

Searching hotscripts brings up 261 results! ! ! Not sure (as I have never used one before) which one would be best for you, but until someone gets you on the straight and arrow it is a place to start searching!

As well, sometimes they have these kinds of discussions on WP.org forums:

I just installed bbpress and went through all the steps to integrate it with WordPress and so far everything is fine except that the times are screwed up. For example, the freshness of all posts is -1 (that’s negative 1) even though the posting times are perfect. That seems to be it and I can’t fix it. Any ideas?

[Stefano Aglietti]

If some strings are not translated it’s cause they are missing to be included nto the internationalization functions, and this is a bug, You can open a ticket on trac about untraslated strings so they will be corrects annd included into pot. file.

For info about internationalizion and stuff you can refer to WordPress COdex searching for internationalizazion and localization, the info you will find there arcan be applied to bbpress also.

[JzL]

I have an existent wordpress install. I successfully installed bbpress and have the db pulling from wp install for the users. Now I want to try and wrap my wp around bbpress utilizing my existent header and footer in wordpress.

bbpress – v0.74

wordpress – 2.0.6

I have been searching everywhere looking where to start but alot say I need to set ('WP_BB', true); in the (bbpress) config.php. In this version of bbpress, it’s not in there. Am I missing something?

[mouse8b]

In the default template’s register.php, I replaced the registration form with a message and link and it seems to have worked just fine. ( http://www.bandtr.com/wordpress/bbpress/ ). If there are some other factors at work that I am not aware of and need to know about, please let me know.

[Trent Adams]

Nope….bbpress-integration goes in WP and wordpress-integration goes in bbPress!

Trent

[spencerp]

I like it, although at the bottom, “fueled with wordpress” that would be fueled with bbpress wouldn’t it?

Thanks Vaelrith. Yeah, It’s one of those “things” that I need to change up on theme. I’ll fix that up here soon.. Really, I need to fix up the blog theme’s footer too then..

this is a great looking theme, you’ve integrated it nicely with the blog Are you going to make it a public theme? It’s quite sexy ;p

Thanks skrimpy. Um, I might release it to the public then, however, at the moment it’s a slopped together type job though sigh. I basically copied/pasted the blog’s style.css informations right into the bbPress stylesheet.. and so forth.

When I get some more time here, hopefully soon, I’ll make a public release of the theme. As I’m sure others running the WordPress Gathering theme, might want to have it..

Thanks for the nice comments..

wordpress-tr, would you like a directory in the bbpress-i18n repository?

[Emre Erkan]

Hi,

bbPress Turkish version is ready, we’ve published in our site; WordPress Türkiye:

http://www.wordpress-tr.com/bbpress-turkce-surum/

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

That’s a WordPress Plugin, not a bbPress plugin. It should only be installed in your WordPress plugins dir.
