What I did at http://www.swnk.org is install the bbPress & Buddypress plugins separately from each other. I’m not using the forums function of buddyPress and I’m re-directing the forum profiles to the BuddyPress profiles for instance.

Hello

I wish I had on my site/blog WordPress both: a social network and a forum.

<b>But what is the best option for integrating it with 100% quality?</b>

What I tried:

First installed BuddyPress and activate forum, then, within groups is possible to have discussion forums.

But the problem is that when accessing http://www.site.com/forums list just the latest topics and the group they belong to.

And I would need, beyond the scope of forum for each group, a global forum for the entire site, to divide the topics into categories (“forums” different).

What suggestions?

Should I install BuddyPress bbPress and WordPress as separate plugins? This does not affect integration?

More information: I noticed that when creating the user in bbPress directly (without using the WP registration system) the problem continues.

Hi John!

Yes. I chose that option. This integration was made two years ago and never had problems … until now!

It looks like they’ll be building an application for a weather station that will tie in with a WordPress powered website I run.

After you install and integrate BuddyPress, the process to troubleshoot becomes exponentially more difficult, particularly if you’re not familiar with either platform.

Did you choose the option in BuddyPress to use your existing forums for groups?

Having an issue with Yoast and his breadcrumbs plugin causing incompatibility:

http://yoast.com/wordpress/breadcrumbs/

Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in yoast_breadcrumbs.php

anyone else have issues with any breadcrumb incompatibility?

Dear friends,

I have a problem with the integration of WordPress and bbPress which is driving me crazy. For a couple of weeks, new users can not post on the forum. (“Old” users can do it without problems)

One problem is that there`s no error message. When the new users click on “New Post” seamlessly access the page to create the new post (? New = 1) but there´s no form!

I have also installed Buddypress. I disabled BuddyPress and the problem continues. Has anyone had any similar experience? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

The bbPress plugin repo on this site is for the standalone edition (1.x), but current development (it’s at RC2 at the moment) is focused on the WordPress plugin edition (2.x).

i dont will use buddypress for avatar.

this one:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/add-local-avatar/

when you can integrate this into the profile of bbpress i like it

[pimarts]

You’re probably right about it being a bridge too far for this project, but since you asked what kinda plugins people would like to see, well.. That one for sure

There’s a forum signature one already:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbp-signature/

As for an avatar plugin:

BuddyPress as mentioned and I’ve seen some others been mentioned in these forums too, but I didn’t test those.

There’s also an UBBcode/toolbar plugin but that’s about it I think.

[Ryan Hellyer]

a avatar plugin for profile edit was also nice.

you can integrate a existing one for wordpress into bbpress profile or so?!

Do you know of any good existing ones for WordPress?

[pimarts]

You’re probably right, I never developed a plugin for WordPress yet, something I like to look into when I have some time again

[Mike1233]

yes a unread/new post plugin was great.

a avatar plugin for profile edit was also nice.

you can integrate a existing one for wordpress into bbpress profile or so?!

For me, it ended up being that the user roles assigned in WordPress (I used a CSV import tool, then bulk modified user roles)did not get transferred to role in BBPress. All users in BBPress ended up with role of “No Role (inactive)”.. I had to have each of the 500 users manually changed to a role that had “Add” permissions.. once I did that, all good.. however, manually added new users to WordPress show in BBPress as having no role (inactive).

I’m meeting with some IT students tomorrow who will possibly be working on projects with me as part of their course. I was thinking that maybe they could make some simple widgets for the new bbPress plugin.

Are there any simple plugins/widgets that bbPress users would like built?

More information is available on WP Tavern:

http://www.wptavern.com/forum/plugins-hacks/2294-free-wordpress-plugin-development.html

And I’ve posted some of the current suggestions on Google+, none of them are bbPress related (yet):

Thanks for any ideas you guys might have

[pimarts]

If I find the time I’ll see if I can test on a brand new install, but I don’t know if I’ll have that time.

Any idea what else could cause it?

Either way, it’s not really an issue for me for me at the moment, since it’s working now

PS > Lots of updates yesterday night, nice one!

[John James Jacoby]

I see the ticket, I commented on it yesterday. I can’t duplicate it, and don’t see any reason that cap would cause that behavior.

[John James Jacoby]

For what it’s worth, *not* wanting complete integration between a WordPress install and bbPress is the exception rather than the rule. It’s been a long while since someone has wanted two separate and disconnected installations.

Best of luck!

@chesternerd – This topic is in regards to bbPress 2.0, which is a turn-key plugin for WordPress.

@Stephanie Leary – Try r3404 – Multisite or single? Have you tried deactivating/reactivating the plugin?

“Where can I contribute translations

https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin/&#8221;

I was willing to translate to Spansh, since is my mother language, and I need it. I translated a few things and realised that it didn’t work, they need to be aproved to be downloaded. Then I saw this:

Language % Translated Untranslated Waiting

Spanish (Spain) 0% 0 706 818

Almost everything has been already translated, but is not aproved. I’ve been reading and it might not be perfect, since some words are still in english (for instance Topic instead of “Hilo/Tema”), but it would be great to have access to that translation. There’ll be time for future improvements, I am the first one interested.

So, who’s in charge of it?

Thank you.

PD: I need it for this http://www.opes.es/ new website. I got a translation file but is not completed. I am also looking for a guide to develop a plugin using the rewrite module, since the dynamic tests are now created using ?ID=x …

I am always updating the files as soon as I see an update here:
