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.

[vaelrith]

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

[spencerp]

I’m still in the process of doing things with it, so, if you find things quirky, please be patient…

Anyway, I tried to get the blog’s theme around the forums themselves. I used the blog’s imagery, blog’s style.css codes right in the original bbPress stylesheet.. and so forth. I also used the WordPress.org/support/ user profile layout basically..

Well, what you think?

I’ve already posted this to the list, and I’ve also checked that disabling the one in the blog, stops this from happening. However though, the plugin won’t work and do what’s it supposed too! Anyway.. on with the B.S…

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare bb_int_set_current_user() (previously declared in /home/mypath/myuser/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress-integration.2.php:14) in /home/mypath/myuser/public_html/forums/my-plugins/bbpress-integration.2.php on line 13

I got this error after uploading, and activating the newest bbpress-integration.2.php plugin.

I uploaded the two too:

my-plugins/ directory

wp-content/plugins/ directory

Please note though: I’m using the full path to my wp-blog-header.php file, in the forum’s config.php file.

I also have the following for near footer of the config.php if it make’s a difference:

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // WordPress table prefix. Example: ‘wp_’;

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

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘false’; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash. Example: ‘http://example.com’

// Use the following line *only* if you will be loading WordPress everytime you load bbPress.

define(‘WP_BB’, true);

I’m doing this, to be able to use some of my blog’s wp functions, for wrapping the blog’s theme around my forums..

Is there a way to work around this, or..? Thanks in advanced!

Hmm, I don’t think any bbpress functions are loaded when your WP is loaded is it? If not, then you’ll have to build the link from scratch. Link building in bbpress is one of those things you just gotta figure out from doing it a few times (and staring at core code).

Since you’re doing it specifically for your forums, it doesn’t necessarily have to be in plugin form (which is preferable for me since I never made WP plugins). So I would do something like this:

Look at the code used to get the logged in user’s name.

Get the ID of that user anyway you can (you can search the db for the username or use a wp function that I don’t know about).

Start the link formation like $link = “http://zenhelix.us.to/forums/profile/”

Then you can either add the user ID directly to the end using a regular expression ( add a .$userid to the end of the previous line) or just do $link += $userid;

Setup the link with the a href and all that junk.

I wish I could give you more specific code, but like I said, I’ve never done much WP coding.

[vaelrith]

haha, I’ll probably think of something else I’d like pretty soon. And, by the way, while we’re on this topic of wordpress and bbpress, on my site at the top it says “Hello $user_id”, I’d like for that to link to the forums profile for the user. If you don’t understand, go to my site and look at the top right. You’d have to actually login for it to say your username, otherwise it just says “Hello !”

[ardentfrost]

I didn’t know jack about much of this stuff 2 months ago. I had programmed before, but nothing super special (I did an RSS parser for me and my friends’ main webpage, rayd.org). I just kinda got ambitious with this stuff.

Everything you need to know to do this stuff is in the core code (I’ve pulled so many stylistic and methodological things from preexisting code) and php.net. The only thing you need beyond that is ambition. Mine pretty much peeked when I did Private Messages. I can’t think of another project that will require that much work (though I’m sure there are, I just can’t think of any for now).

[vaelrith]

hmm… I really need to learn how to make my own plugins so I won’t have to rely on others to do everything…

[ardentfrost]

I never get annoyed

I’ve been so busy at work I haven’t had a chance to update my PM plugin yet. It’s still next on my docket. I’ll add your request to my list of things to do.

Last time I sat down to work on it, I was having trouble adding a user search feature… so there’s still that

[vaelrith]

Will do, I check artentfrost’s forums about every day for a new plugin I think he might get annoyed with my constant requesting and never posting anything else…

BTW, good work on those plugins artentfrost

[Trent Adams]

Since the paths of where to pull the information for the PM plugin are hardcoded for bbPress installs, I don’t know if it is possible. Maybe drop a line to Ardentfrost at:

I was wondering how to use bbpress tags on wordress. For example, since my wordpress and bbpress are integrated, i wanted to put a little member section on the wordpress site that would use the pm plugin to show you if you have any pm’s in your inbox. Is this possible?

[H]

My bbPress installation works perfect, except for that it generates a weird error message when I log in and log out and when I change my user (admin) profile. When I edit my profile, I end up at this page; bbpress/profile.php?id=1&tab=edit.

This page however gives this message:

Found

The document has moved here.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I have tried to integrate my bbPress installation with my WordPress installation. Can anybody help me with this?

Sincerely,

Helgetry

I have a site with bbPress and WordPress. They are all integrated to where if you log in to one location, you are logged into the others as well. I also have (well, am working on) a unified registration page where I ask for all needed information and write it to whichever database needs it. Since I have this, I need to have bbPress lose the ability to register. Should I just change register.php to inform the user to register on the main registration page, or is there a better way?

[startribe]

here is a link to the phpinfo.php ::

http://ostardesign.com/forums/phpinfo.php

not sure if this helps… any how, I thought I would share a bit about my project.

ostardesign.com is a temporary url, this site is actually for a MMA publishing company. I was sold on wordpress after I read this article:

http://www.adobe.com/newsletters/edge/july2006/articles/article6/

I then became a true believer after building my personal site with WP. For Victory Belt I decided to run with WP and was originally going to go with phpBB, then Vanilla, then considered punBB for a bit, then found out about the tight integration with bbPress. The WP community in conjunction with the bbPress community had a huge influence on my decision. I was then sold when I found out about the plugin that automatically creates forum posts (http://dev.mbzeus.net/), for then I realized that the integration and community would only get stronger.

I like how light and fast bbPress is, I would like to focus on the discussions and interaction with the community, and I feel these elements would be refreshing in comparison to the other clunky mma bbs out there. And once Dr. Riddoch over at An-Archos creates his media plugin for bbPress, we’ll be set.

Anyhow, for those interested mma is getting some pretty big traffic, and we are expecting a lot of traffic to our site, for we are releasing books by BJ Penn and Randy Couture in the near future. There is actually a special on MSNBC tonight that is a prime example to the influx of interest in MMA, trailer @:

I just wanted to share, and I am hoping to make bbPress our solution, for I know I am going a bit out on a limb with such new software, but I believe the tree is very strong.

Also, our look and feel is created, the site location is currently the category and back-end development. One of my designers just recently started working on the look and feel of the css… just an FYI.

Thanks again for the help,

I am going to call up my hosting service now,

All the Best,

Thank you again chrishajer & madawaffe,

I created a phpinfo.php file and uploaded it to the forum root folder, and the PHP info with and with out the .htaccess file is…

PHP Version 4.3.11

I then tried saving the .htaccess file in several different formats including, Mac OS Western, UTF-8, UTF-16, & ASCII, and I was given an internal server error for UTF-8 & UTF-16.

I then tried creating an .htaccess directory access and password file with a .htpasswd file, and was given another server error.

So I am assuming, that outside of the issue of the tags.php working on php4, that there is an issue with my server in working with a .htaccess file. Hmmmm, there has to be a solution here, and I really would like to get this forum up and running, for I love the integration with wordpress.

I am going to call up my hosting service again and probe a bit more. If any ideas come about, I will be here at full attention. Thank you so much for your help again.

All the Best,

Orion

PHP Version 5.1.2

Yes, I have the ability to use .htaccess. Though I don’t no much about its parameters. I’ve used it for 301 redirects and that’s about it. Help with writing anything for the .htaccess would be greatly appreciated.

One bit, I have WordPress on the same server using the same database (bbPress is integrated) and this is NOT an issue in WP – only in bbPress.

[Trent Adams]

Even if that is a mySQL restriction on the number of entries, I am more than 100% sure there are ways around it. If you need help believing that, just watch what happens when wordpress.org or wordpress.com go over 1,000,000 posts ! ! !

PS Brad, you are still linking your old site in your profile.

Thanks jaim3. I can’t tell you how excited I am about going from a board with 86 tables to one with 8! Light and fast is what my members will appreciate. I think the simpler design will result in higher adsense revenues from my message board channels.

I have integrated bbpress to match the tech-o-crunch theme and will be releasing it to the bbpress community once I have it like I want it.

I’ll also be posting a casestudy of the bbpress adsense theory I mentioned above on my blog.

[startribe]

Hey Community,

I have installed and integrated both WordPress and BBpress. WordPress is working fine, and I am utilizing the integrated user plugin. Both are working from the same database.

My only issue is when I click on a forum to view from the home page of BBpress I am given a blank screen of “No input file specified.”

I did a search an came across a post by a person who received a similar result, but under different circumstances, for is error was during installation.

Any how, I am new with bbPress, so any general directions or instructions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Orion

Thanks for the reply. I thought the spam filtering out was most likely yahoo’s fault. I honestly don’t think any of my problems are related to bbpress, and maybe more likely my cheapo hosting!

I have another installation of bbpress on another domain and it seems to work ok.

I’m thinking of looking into linking up with wordpress as well because I have used it before and really like it. Any my forum seems to be functioning which is the main thing and I’m happy I found bbpress for it!

[SMK]

Ok Thanks

Also, please note! If you’re running WordPress version 2.1 alphaX, or now it’s in Beta state, and you have the bbPress Integration plugin going on it..

find this line:

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/registration-functions.php’ );

change it to this:

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/registration.php’ );

(The devs renamed the file in the includes/ directory for 2.1)

This is probably the main cause of these errors.. Also, we’d better make sure of any other bbPress plugins using that first call to the /registration-functions.php file.. and change accordingly..

This is for 2.1 alphaX, and now 2.1-betaX users only!!
