You can try making topics hierarchical, but that might make things goofy in other places.

You might need to buckle down and write your own custom rules to overload the ones that WordPress generates with the custom post type.

Made some progress. It appears I do not have the right syntax for: require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/../wp-load.php’)

my site is located in the httpdocs folder and my bbpress is located in a folder (named forum) located in the httpdocs folder along with my wordpress install.

Please advise…

OK. For the time being Akismet is out and Spam Free WordPress is in. Spammer Blocker is sidelined.

– It offers unattended removal of machine-generated spam

– It offers an IP blacklist

If It works for Comments I’ll turn bbPress back on.

I’ll let you know what happens.

Oh oh, you’re talking about the new bbPress plugin. You’ve to put the language file in /bbpress/bbp-languages folder and if your WordPress blog is already Swedish, then the translations would get activated automagically.

[Gustav820]

Hi!

I have downloaded and installed BBPress 2.0 rc3 with WordPress and it works fine. I would like to change to Swedish so I have uploaded the two language files (.po and .mo) to /bbpress/my-languages/. But I wont get Swedish. What am I doing wrong? Someone told me to edit the settings.php in /bbpress/ but I cant find it?

Thanks for helping me!

Hi, is there any chance to change Freshness values for localization purposes? Now, there is for example “5 days” and I need changing it to “5 days ago” due to localization problem (see https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/18495 ). Thank you for your help…

My website caches all spam after updating bbpress plugin for wordpress(I am not talking about independent bbpress).

I had to click spam on posts like you say before I updated, but now it works briliant.

I know this is probably an easy answer, but I couldn’t find a thread that explained it fully. I’m trying to install to a subdomain in my WordPress site. I add the folder to my “WP-Content>Plugin” folder, then activate it. However I don’t know how to make it point to my subdomain. I created the subdomain yesterday, so it should be active, I just don’t know if there’s a config file, or where in the WordPress settings I need to make the change. I’m installing bbpress ver 2.0, my main site is http://letterstoreason.com and the subdomain is http://forum.letterstoreason.com if that helps. I know it’s gotta be staring me in the face, I’ve just been Googling and can’t find the damn answer :S any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Hello!

Is it possible to get bbPress working in a WordPress multisite manner? I’d like to have users of my site to create own forums, preferably with own subdomains.

If this isn’t currently possible, can the WP Multisite users create each an own forum under their multisite account? Is it possible to create the forum automatically for each new user?

If these are not possible now, are you planning to create support for this kind of functionality in the future. I could be also able to write some simple hacks by myself, or a new plugin

Couldn’t find an exact answer to this in the previous threads.

[Billy Bryant]

Ok, I am setting up a new configuration and here is what I have:

WordPress v3.2.1

bbPress Plugin for WordPress v2.0-rc-3

BuddyPress Plugin for WordPress v1.2.9

I am going through the setup of BuddyPress and on the section “BuddyPress > Forums Setup” you are presented with two options.

“Setup a new bbPress installation”, which from previous experience seems to install bbPress with ONLY group functionality no categories, and “Use an Existing bbPress Installation”, which is what I’m trying to use.

The configuration issue I’m coming to is the next step is to define the path to the bb-config.php file; however, when using the bbPress plugin, bb-config.php is not created as it uses wp-config for all of its standard settings (auth salts/keys, database connections, etc).

So how do i continue with my current setup and have fully integrated WP + BP + bbP without sacrificing on bbPress features by installing it from within BP and without having to install the standalone bbPress (I’d prefer to only have one admin interface)?

Any assistance from the pros would be greatly appreciated!

Simply install bbpress into a directory on your web server. and add a link to the forum in your wordpress site menu. Do you need help installing bbpress?

[ezat2020]

i am trying to make a forum for my wordpress website.

the question is how to install bbpress in wordpress?

[theurbantwist]

Can someone take a look at my forum page and let me know some reasons as to why my forum isn’t showing up?

I’ve followed all instructions to a “T” and I’m obviously moving in the right direction because my “Theme natively supports bbPress” as stated in the dashboard admin panel and on my forum page, it’s at least labeled at the top in the breadcrumbs section that it’s a forum but that’s pretty much it.

Also I know that things are installed properly with the plugin because when I switch theme to default it works as is.

I just want to know if I’m missing something. I’ve moved all relevant files into my theme folder, and like I said before I’ve followed instructions to a “t” and I’m pretty knowledgeable with wordpress and theme customization but can’t figure this out at the moment.

Any suggestions?

You’d probably just need a plugin like you have for WordPress to upload avatars like https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/add-local-avatar/

You may need to fiddle with your theme, depending on how the plugin works, but as bbPress runs via CPTs it should just pull it in.

[adv_user]

In fact, if you see my posts, two years ago, I sought it, at the time that the integration with WordPress was difficult:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/sub-subforum-change-css

Now bbPress has evolved a lot, because it has become plugin an easily integrated with the WordPress and BuddyPress.

So I’m sure that soon this will be improved organization of categories.

@anointed:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/sub-sub-forums#post-11762

Joining the contents of these two topics that I passed the link, you can get what they want (as you yourself said, tks), but let’s be honest…

It is not easy for those who are only user

(not even a beginning programmer)

In other forums it is ready. Simply create categories and forums by default that the organization already does this separation. It should also be standard in bbPress.

If you do not want the separation of categories, will not do it, but it uses different categories is because you want to be separated for better organization.

So it is ideal to be implemented this improvement, and as you mentioned, many other features (as plugins).

And preferably, as plugins for WordPress, which can be installed and automatically updated directly by the panel without having to use FTP, as are separate plugins bbPress.

Suggestion:

is that all plugins from bbPress and BuddyPress, stay in the WordPress directory, thus it will be much easier to use them.

[pimarts]

Since bbpress 2.x hasn’t had a proper stable release yet (the beta and release candidates so far have been good though!) there are not too many plugins yet.

Plugins for bbpress 2.x can be found in the WordPress repository, just search for bbpress:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=bbpress&sort=new

As for a text editor, you might want to try this:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-post-toolbar/

[vladoa]

I used bbPress plugin to an existing WordPress installation and it works great. I wanted also to allow users to upload their own avatars. For that purpose I installed Loise Dade’s Avatar Upload plugin, but upon activation, nothing really happens.

Is there a way I can allow users to upload avatars when bbPress is installed as a plugin?

[Milan Petrovic]

No, problem is with bbPress. When the permalinks in WordPress are enabled, this works fine. If the permalinks are disabled, URL’s are not generated properly, and some parts of URL are missing. I have confirmed this with TwentyTen theme built in bbPress. All tested with lates bbPress from SVN trunk.

[Anthony]

BBpress isn’t a wordpress plugin, however if installed on the same website as wordpress you can share users. Maybe I can help you setup bbpress properly?

[adv_user]

Example:

Invision: http://community.invisionpower.com/

phpBB: http://www.phpbb.com/community/

vBulletin: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/

I want to get this result with bbPress:

http://blogame.com.br/forum/

############################################

With the default structure of great forums:

Category 1

– Forum 1

— Subforum 1, Subforum 2, Subforum 3

– Forum 2

– Forum 3

Category 2

– Forum 4

– Forum 5

— Subforum 4

– Forum 6

############################################

With a “friendly space” between category 1 and category 2.

Because there are many forums.

I Would like a theme that had it, I do not need to change anything, just add the categories, forums and the Subforums in admin panel WordPress.

Tks.

[John James Jacoby]

Fixed in branch. Will be fixed in next release.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1594

[Gautam Gupta]

The bbPress plugin should use the WordPress timezone. Can you post a link to your forums or any other additional details?

[master5o1]

Yeah, kind of. Dev version has the max file size equal to the php.ini setting, upload_max_filesize. You can actually just replace your copy of the toolbar-images-panel.php with the one in trunk and it will be fixed.

I kinda want a few more things done before I make a 0.6.1 or something…and more time between them -_- Don’t like annoying people with overly frequent updates -_-

The file in trunk: view | download

[ratsoid2]

Check the other solutions on the wp forum… something like:

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-user-photo-front-end-upload?replies=17#post-2226189

The solution I posted worked and I don’t know what to tell you… Maybe you can put a pop-up link instead of using thickbox/prettyphoto/any other overlay plugin.
