Hi all,
I’m looking for a way to create a widget to mix the last wordpress comment with the latest responses forums.
This widget should be able to distinguish between two types of entry through a different CSS and enter the name of the user’s avatar, …
Could you help me?
At first I thought retrieve the 2 rss, yahoo pipes through the cross, but there is no avatar.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Arf, i miss the categoriy of my topic, sorry :'(
trevogre, were you ever able to get these to work together?
It seems like I have it so close – one role is restricted to one forum and another role is restricted to one forum. I set both my forums to hidden, add the read_hidden_forums to both capabilities, the appropriate error is displayed on the restricted forum but the roles can’t get into the appropriate forum to post or read topics. It’s like there should be a read_hidden_topics and publish_hidden_topics capability.
Private forums don’t seem to work at all. I tried the private setting and restricted the appropriate roles on the forums but the roles can still get into and post in both forums.

Download User Avatar for WP here: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-avatar/
1. In single-user-edit.php, Before
<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/content', 'single-user-edit' ); ?>
add: http://pastebin.com/rfLFaRvq
2. In style.css add:
.bbp-single-user-edit { position:relative; }
#user-avatar-display { position:absolute; top:160px; right:20px; text-align:center; width:155px; }
#user-avatar-display a { color:#000; text-decoration:none; text-align:center; };
3. In functions.php add: http://pastebin.com/YfbiN65x

It works great for me. Cheers.
Hi John,
I hate to bother, but I really dug through everything close to a documentation (plus hundreds of forum answers) and could not find an answer to some basic questions:
a) BuddyPress 1.5.2 beta comes with a folder
/bp-forums/bbpress
which is obviously a full bbpress install (standalone?).
I run WP 3.2.1 with BP 1.5.2 beta plus bbpress plugin 2.0-rc-2 (the latter a folder with less files than the one I found in a)
So which one to run/install, what’s the difference?
At the moment my admin panel shows a section for Forums, Topics, Replies, but they don’t show in the frontend.
In the frontend I see group forums only, but not the ones created in the admin panel.
I am confused and I am really missing a clue (a mini docu would help), on how those parts work together (or not).
Thankful for any hint, just point me to any place with some information so that I can find sleep and peace again – and my 11,000 club members too 
BTW – I am quite experienced with WordPress after some hundred installations and modifications since 2005, but I’m new to BuddyPress and bbPress…
Kind regards from Austria,

Hi
I had this problem and the plugin provided by Zaerl fixed it, many thanks.
What I am wondering (and i have only just put the forum up) am I better off using the BBpress plugin in wordpress than the deep integration method i have used?
Thanks
Hi there,
Here I am with an issue
– Didn’t touch anything :p
I’ve made my own theme and followed the steps.
When clicking on a tag I get this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bbp_get_topic_tag_template() in
xampphtdocswordpresswp-contentpluginsbbpressbbp-includesbbp-core-compatibility.php on line 745
Thanks in advance for any assistance,
Isabelle,
In the future I’ll look into adhering to the WordPress Discussion settings for restricting comments too.
Yeah, I’m gonna need that too 
Akismet’s great for spam (yay!) but keepin’ out the troublemakers…
I’ve allowed users to upload images, but whenever I try to upload an image it fails with increase post_max_size and upload_max_filesize to 5M.
I don’t have any issues uploading with wordpress, and the values are currently set to 8M and 2M respectively.
The image i was trying to upload was only 167KB I tried with a 47KB file as well and that didn’t work either.
Any ideas?
I get the same error with the latest versions of bbPress Plugin and WordPress. I tried a fresh install but i get the same error.
If i remove the code from common functions the update works ok.
if ( $bbp->errors->get_error_codes() )
$has_errors = true;
But i’m afraid without that code there won’t be any error printed 
Does anyone have another solution?
Have installed BB on wordpress/PlatformPro .. and cannot seem to get it set up properly… Assuming that the plugin was installed properly, could someone give me step by step instructions on what I should do to make it useable by members on my website .. thx
Hello,
BBpress 2.0 Plugin is using the standard content width of my WordPress installation for showing. But i would like to have it full width (920 px instead of 550px). Because of my posts is not a option to change the default content width.
How to change this for BBpress only?
Thanx in advance!
I don’t know if this is the right forum for this. Nevertheless, I’ve done some search in the forums and haven’t seen an answer or topic with this problem:
Whenever I try to update my user profile (with the Yahoo info, for example) I get this error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function get_error_codes() on a non-object in /**********/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-common-functions.php on line 1392
I’m using the latest version (2.0-rc-2) of the bbPress plugin for WordPress.
Hi Everyone,
I’m not a super hacker or anything, but I have some basic competence with computers. I’ve been tasked with converting our phpbb3 to bbpress standalone and now to bbpress plugin. I’ve managed to do phpbb to bbpress, but i am stuck at converting standalone to plugin.
We currently have wordpress users as well as bbpress users for our forums. We would like to maintain separate users for each. My major question is, how do I convert bbpress to the bbpress plugin and maintain those user categorations?
We do not want our forums users to be able to affect our wordpress account. This is the only information I can find:
bbPress Standalone to Plugin Converter Beta 2
Currently, there are three situations:
1. You have a new WordPress blog, to which you are migrating to and an established forum. Then, you would go to user migration section first and then proceed to forums, topics, posts migration section. In this process, all your WordPress users would be deleted (well, renamed to another table) and in place of those, bbPress users would be added. A keymaster will be WP admin, bb admin and moderator will be bbPress plugin moderators, rest all would be converted to the default WP role (which can be set in your WordPress settings).
2. Your WordPress and bbPress user tables are integrated. You don’t need the user migration process and you can directly go to forums, topics, posts migration section. No worries.
3. You have a established WordPress blog, with a good number of users and can’t afford to lose those. This is currently not supported as it is hard to merge two conflicting user sets.
Hello,
Somehow i don’t get BBPress Plugin working. When i try to view the forum i get redirected to the homepage. Only when i disable Buddypress everything is working and i’m able to view the forum.
I’m using WordPress 3.2.1 and the 2.0 RC2 of the plugin.
How to solve this?
Thanx in advance@
bbPress 2.0 is a plugin to WordPress. WordPress plugins can integrate with bbPress 2.0.
bbPress 1.x has its own plugins system.
I am using BbPress plugin forum for WordPress.
When I create new topic it has a field for tags, which I enter with commas between normally.
THE THING IS THE TAGS DON’T DISPLAY ANYWHERE ON FORUM.
I think before I updated, the tags appeared on top of the page when reading discussion, but now there are’n there, anywhere.
DID I MESS THE CODE, or are tags not displayed anymore in the new versions of bbpress WordPress plugin?
how can we upload a wordpress plugins?
how to get wordpress plugins in bbpress?
I don’t get bbPress with WP and BuddyPress to work properly – maybe because I don’t understand the central point (and yes, I read everything I could get hold of 
My configuration:
WordPress 3.2.1.
BuddyPress 1.5.2 beta
bbPress 2.0-rc-2
site http://www.nadelspiel.com/clubneu/
BP 1.5.2 beta included a complete bbPress folder within the directory /buddypress/bp-forums,
I was able to run the install/setup through BP administration.
On the site I see group forums only.
I am confused as of having to install the bbPress Plugin too. Because if I do, the forums administration shows up in my WP control panel. But still the general forums don’t show in the frontend.
So, what am I missing? I am really desperate!
Thank you for your help, kind regards from Austria,

Certainly kangenguru, integration is actually very simple.
I remember 2 years ago as I suffered to do this on another site, they were separate systems. Now, as they are plugins, is extremely easy.
Congratulations to all team WordPress.
Ah you’re not using the WordPress plugin (2.x) of bbPress… I have no idea how it could work in the standalone, but the procedure should be the same (only other classnames).
Hi
I have a logout issue which shows an error when I logout of the admin area. The error is:
—
Not Found
The requested URL /forum/forum/wp-admin/edit.php was not found on this server.
—
The WordPress installation is at /forum on the domain and bbpress seems to have added another /forum to the url. If I take that out of the url, it logs out as it should.
If I deactivate the plugin (it’s the only plugin in the WP install) it logs out as it should.
Could anyone throw any light on what might be happening please and how to fix it?
Thanks
I have 2 sites that I installed on wordpress mu the buddypress plugin and activated bbpress within buddypress. It seemed like an easier implementation. See it here at http://networkmarketingunderground.com.
