keymaster is only defined in bbPress, for WordPress its administrator only

Yep, I’m sure. I’ve touched something because I’m now trying to enter WP-Admin and it says “you don’t have enough privileges” in my WordPress

Just wanna give give my heartfelt thanks to all the bbPress contributors, John James Jacoby in particular of course along with Gautam, for their persistent efforts as of late.

At long last, I think many of us are seeing light at the end of the tunnel, not to mention we seem to moving towards it at an ever increasing pace. I was a skeptic, but now I believe.

I’m bound to be opinionated once in a while (I predict some light ruckus when the developers reveal what 2011 should hold for WordPress). So just keep in mind that, when all is said and done, I am sincerely grateful.

Hey,

I am looking to integrate a bbPress forum into my site (http://ThePerfectLevel.com). Basically, like this site here, I want to keep my existing WordPress theme but have a page where forums are displayed in the main post area.

I have setup the forums already (http://ThePerfectLevel.com/forums) but don’t know how to get them integrated into the site.

I also am having trouble with cookies! I have followed all the steps in WPbbpThemes’s guide (http://wpbbpthemes.org/integration/) but when I log into my main blog and then navigate to the forums, I am required to re-login.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks!

The recent WordPress security upgrade (regarding kses) wasn’t 4 hours from initial contact to release, but you’re right to say that having more eyes and developers did help to expedite the testing.

Needless to say I wasn’t personally accessible to work on this until I was back from holiday, so it is me dropping that ball and not being prepared. I’ll take that responsibility even if no one expects me to.

Honestly, the reminders get a little repetitive, but only because I get them from a few different places. Open source development is kinda like having 1,000 bosses, but I’m used to it and take pride in having people be worried about the state of things.

I’ve got pretty thick skin and don’t take things personally. So, no worries.

Another personal hurdle was learning exactly what the procedure is to actually push out a release of bbPress. Having never needed to do it yet, and having the only person who has in the past few years (Sam) not immediately at my disposal, it took a few days to get me setup and ready to be able to do it.

The trunk and 1.0 branches are fixed. The 1.0 branch is ready for a release. I am going to do the 0.9 branch tonight, do some testing, make my first deployments, and look forward to things hopefully going smoothly for releases tomorrow or this weekend.

I’m not new to bbPress, but I am new to the logistics. Don’t fret, I’m a fast learner.

I have made my second attempt at installing bbPRess in the web/content/forum directory – and integrating the databases.

Last time I believe I left the User Table Prefix as ‘bb_’.

The install ‘worked’ but I could not add new topic, reply, etc. with any user.

This time I entered it as ‘wp_’ and I have installation errors –

My error report:

SQL ERROR!

I can enter new topics (last time I could not – attempting so would give me a page ‘topic closed’) BUT I cannot read the topic.

Also, a ‘user’ named ‘anonymous’ made a post 40 years ago…

What’s going on??

My apologies if my tone was somewhat harsh but I am concerned about the way it is handled when compared to WordPress. WordPress security upgrade was pushed in record time of 4 hours. I am not blaming JJJ or anybody else.

Its something I would have feel if I was a non-technical guy running bbPress unknowingly that my forums are vulnerable.

How WordPress community would have reacted if a WP bug wasn’t fixed asap? They would obviously curse the people behind WordPress but since bbPress is a little pond, that doesn’t mean it should wait for 1 week. I know how much difference does it make when there are several developers on a project as compared to when there are only a few.

I understand JJJ didn’t have proper access to internet but I really expected an update on Jan 3 & we haven’t got anything till now. May be there are issues which needs to be fixed before a release is pushed live but I certainly don’t feel right about it.

That said, its all my opinion and it doesn’t intend to pinpoint any individual. For the record, I am only blaming the situation.

I hope JJJ didn’t mind my tone. If he did, I apologize once again. I am just in favor of the bbPress community. JJJ, if you remember, I was the one who brought this topic to your attention on IRC.

P.S. – I don’t run even a single forum of my own and views are certainly not biased for only my favor.

Any extra who could input ideas, help build on what the Plugin has already, would be a great idea. So starting up these Dev Chats again would also be a smashing idea, possibly setting up something like WordPress.org has (or will have) with make.bbpress.org/plugin to keep upto date with news and such?

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

create a folder something like named forums and it will be available on domain.com/forums

So do I upload the files to the same directory as my WordPress files?

I uninstalled bbPress, no immediate change in access, then started uninstalling ‘Event Manager’ – within a few seconds I could get into the Dashboard… Probably access was possible with only un-installing bbPress.

I found this: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101#post-17417

== Loss of Admin Access ==

It is possible (most likely during REVERSE integration) for admin access to be lost on the bbPress or WordPress side after you integrate a new install. This is because the role of keymaster is stored in the user-meta and if you have gone from BB_USERS to WP_USERS (and BB_USERMETA to WP_USERMETA) , suddenly there is no longer a level set for the user. So the password/login will work but not admin access.

Fixing this requires the role to be inserted back in the usermeta. This used to require editing the table (ie. with PHPMYADMIN) but I also created a basic plugin to handle the most basic case. Note it requires the keymaster to be user #1. If not, you will have to “hand edit”.

You visited norcalmilsim.com? That is my forum address.

I’ve uninstalled, because now I can’t login to my WP dashboard… Will try again.

Could be the User Access Manager plug-in?

They can be installed in the same database.

Just like WordPress, bbPress has its own theme functionality so you will have the same looking site if you have a similar theme for both of them or you can customize the bbPress theme to match your WordPress one by deep integration – http://www.wpwebhost.com/make-bbpress-theme-match-with-wordpress-by-deep-integration/
