I have installed wordpress 3.0.1 and bbpress 1.0 inside the wordpress folder. They share the same database.

I have added the following lines to the wp-config before the mysql strings:

define( 'COOKIEHASH', 'd1f7eec6931cdc9bcabcda54b479078e' );

define( 'SITECOOKIEPATH', '/' );

define( 'COOKIEPATH', '/' );

And these longer down:

define('AUTH_KEY',         'Lut=fA6L$vvH;jt+<3$.Uu;-x$SScbTh}>I0$G7d8<code></code>%H]/%F<eFY

)NM6tMw_2ao’);

define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘Q0e8f|n[NN-7-}w-:9-}s-Yt5UjbM-_E>]88/j|cgG d++%q7m%kx+Y*|Vn&c{)8’);

These have been added to the bb-config.php before the mysql strings:

In the wordpress integration plugin I checked that the table prefix is set to wp_. Also the “auth”, “secure auth” and “logged in” cookies are locked as they have been matched.

The wordpress url is set correct and the bbpress integration plugin has been added and the bbpress url is set. I have deleted all cookies, but regardless I am not logged into bbpress when I log into wordpress.

I have mapped the users as key, moderator, member, member, member. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

[brad@foreverybody]

I have been tasked with integrating a forum whit an existing site of private community of members already in existence.

I selected bbpress because I like its simplicity and its similarities with wordpress so I am somewhat familiar with it on the surface and to a lesser extent its inner workings. This integration needs to be seamless in both appearance and function.

Geting it visually integrated was easy as I was able to wrap my existing webpage class in a bb template by doing all my setup in head.php and my rendering in footer.php. wrapping my webpage class also inherently provided me with blocking pages and showing the login page if the user wasn’t authenticated to the existing site. so far so good.

Now onto the problem. I need users logged into the site to be able to post and have all the perks of registered users but NOT actually be a user because they will not control their user info from bbpress. avatars names email addresses etc are to be controlled from an existing interface that i have no control over. With that said inserting and updating entires in the bbuesrs table is undesirable for me and I would much rather a plugin be be abel to instantiate the bb_user class using $_SESSION data instead of entries in the database.

I have been able to get this working by hacking the actual bb_user class in combination with a hacked anonymous posting plugin, but I want to be able to update bbpress in the future without breaking it or having to go re-hack so I am hoping to find a pluggable solution.

any ideas?

We are not using any plugins to restrict access and we are integrated with WordPress.

[brad@foreverybody]

While I have never needed to administrate 100 bbpress installs I have had the need to administrate 3 and it was a pain having to keep each one up to date with plugins etc.

I’m not sure what exactly OP means when he says “administrate”, but if all that is required is the ability to run multiple forums from one set of core/plugins/templates the solution I came up with was to hack the wordpress virtual multiblog plugin to work with bbpress. It was fairly easy as bbpress and wordpress cores are quite similar.

each forum has its own database and VMB simply loads a different config file for each forum.

Nice

My guess is that your box doesn’t support PHP mail. I had the same problem, but I integrated users with my WordPress install so I got in with my admin account.

There is an SMTP plugin floating around but I haven’t gotten it to work, and it doesn’t support SSL. For now I’ve simply replaced the register link on bbpress with the link to my WP register page. (WP has a host of smtp plugins that work great).

That’s probably more than you needed to know but maybe I was able to preempt a few issues you might run into.

How can I add a menu link back to WordPress from the

“Welcome, user | Admin | Log Out” menu?

I looked everywhere!

Been noobafied…

I’m creating a website with WordPress and bbPress that needs a section where someone can fill out an application form (from a WordPress page) and that will create a new topic in bbPress with the info they filled in.

We decided that the easiest way would be to have the form data submitted straight into the bbPress database.

I experimented with phpmyadmin by adding new records with the correct info in bbposts, increased the post counts in bbtopics and finally used the post time I’d set in bbposts (post_time) with topic_time to update the ‘freshness’. I used phpmyadmin’s default date/time selector to replicate the records’ formatting correctly.

While the new post showed up perfectly and the post counts were correct, the freshness came up as being “-1 years”

I changed the code in front-page.php to the following as outlined by _ck_ :

<td class="num">" title="<?php echo date("r",strtotime($topic->topic_time)); ?>"><?php topic_time(); ?></td>

so that I could see what it was coming up with as the posted date and time. The results were… ‘interesting’ –

On mousing over the -1 years, I got the correct date and time.

On mousing over the correct freshness times of other posts I had made the same day, I got a date and time that seems to be 12 hours behind.

Here are the links to images outlining this:

-1 years freshness but correct date/time image

‘Normal’ freshness time but with wrong date/time image

Can someone please explain what is going wrong and if possible how to fix it or get around this problem with adding topics directly to the database. I’m starting to /facedesk so help would be much appreciated!!

Hi. So, I’m a new bbPress user. I’ve been browsing around the forums and learning a lot the past couple weeks. I had a smooth time installing bbPress last week (haven’t integrated with WordPress, yet). The day after I launched our forum, and having added a couple topics, I started getting these errors on the topic pages:

____

Warning: include() [function.include]: Filename cannot be empty in /home4/zwfilmco/public_html/infusion5/forum/bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php on line 45

Warning: include() [function.include]: Failed opening ” for inclusion (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home4/zwfilmco/public_html/infusion5/forum/bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php on line 45

____

I’m clearly not familiar enough with bbPress yet to understand what’s going on. But I also don’t understand why it was working in the first place, and then after a day began to give these errors.

The only changes that I’ve made to any of the bbPress source files was the footer.php in the theme folder, to which I added a Google Analytics tracking script. Since having this error, I have replaced the footer.php file with the original.

Here’s one of the two topics currently on the forum: http://infusion5.com/forum/topic/businesses-in-colorado-springs-co

Thanks in advance for your support and guidance!

I have a question about that tutorial…

At:

Step # 11

It says:

In your WP folder locate and open “wp-config.php” and leave it open. (done with Coda)

Go to this website: https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/salt (been there before)

Select all and COPY the all information on that site. (easy)

Go to your wp-config.php file and highlight line 45 (it starts with define(‘AUTH_KEY’)) to line 48 (starts with define(‘NONCE_KEY’)) and PASTE the new keys. You basically change your 4 keys to 8 keys.

This one i’am not sure about,

When i installed WordPress i already went to that “secret-key/1.1/salt” page to generate a key for my WordPress site..

That Key is also listed in my wp-config.php file right now. Do i need to fill in a new (both the same) generated key to the wp-config.php and bb-config.php file or can i just use the same key that is already used by my WordPress site and that i listed in my wp-config.php file now?

[notApro]

Thank you..

I also found this site,

http://wpbbpthemes.org/integration/

Now i’m gonna try to complete my installations of that tutorial (WordPress is okay)

But somehow the bbPress will always get an error.

A look at the recently committed WordPress admin color scheme, included in the bbPress plugin.

Feedback encouraged.

[chrishajer]

What is the URL of your forum?

Are you using any plugins that would restrict access to certain topics or forums?

Are you integrated with WordPress?

[chrishajer]

Can your server send mail from other applications, like WordPress? What hosting environment are you using?

I did not receive this error when installing WordPress.

I am using the WordPress database for the bbpress installation.

anyone run into this error before? And if so how did you fix it?

Thanks in advance!

bbpress and WordPress are two separate entites.

They can share a database, and tehy can share logins.

If you want to hack and force “deep integration” into your bbPress install then you should follow this guide:

I just set up a bbPress forum with WordPress MU. However, after setting up the Role Maps and then enabled User integration, I got logged out and when I logged in with my WordPress Admin account, I noticed this account was not Keymaster.

Right now, I have no access to the bbPress admin section.

I tried this with three clean installations of bbPress and the same thing happened. I’m certain that the Role Map was set up correctly.

The Role Map database table says the following:

a:5:{s:13:”administrator”;s:9:”keymaster”;s:6:”editor”;s:9:”moderator”;s:6:”author”;s:6:”member”;s:11:”contributor”;s:6:”member”;s:10:”subscriber”;s:6:”member”;}

[kevinjohngallagher]

99/100 you just fill in the same thing.

Its only because thre is an option in wordpress to have wordpress in a sub folder but pretend to be in a higher up folder (via htaccess).

[EyeSeeSound]

Hi there.

right, bbpress looks great and i managed to install and style it incredibly painlessly (i know html and CSS which helped, but still, nice, cheers).

When you enter a forum above the forum it starts listing the family of forum titles. The first being the main index, then the forum name you are in.

At the moment the index is called BBPRESS but I want to change that to Forum Index.

Where do i do this?

Cheers

Oh, i was a bit surprised there isn’t the option to manipulate the templates in the admin area like you can in WordPress. I managed it by downloading the files from my server, editing and uploading, but if it isn’t too much bother the Edit Template section of WordPress was a joy.

[notApro]

Okay i am installing bbPress and now i’am at step 2 the options/Cookies..

First i have to fill in the WordPress address (url) thats simple i guess thats just my http://www.domain.com

But at the second option the form asks my Blog address (url)

I think i has to be http://www.domain.com/blog

But i did also a fresh install of my WordPress site so there isn’t a blog yet. (only welcome page active)

What do i have to do, just fill in my domain only? without “blog” ??

[ianhaycox2]

Hi,

Thanks for the response.

I tried as suggested but I always get the post content of

First post W00t!

The topic_id passed is different each time, but it always returns the post content for topic id 1.

I’ve written a few WordPress plugins, but the lack of comments and documentation in the bbpress code is making it hard to work out what populates the global topics and posts variables.

How do I get a post given a topic ID ?

EDIT: Just worked out I need get_post_text( $post->post_id ) !

Thanks

Ian.

Okay thank you..

Some other question about this..

I did this tutorial to install a secure WordPress.

http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/wordpress/20-steps-to-a-flexible-and-secure-wordpress-installation/

And at step # 17 it makes/installs a sitemap.xml in the root. Will the pages of the bbPress also be included in the sitemap?

Or does that sitemap only stay on the WordPress side?

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

It means whole WordPress is loaded along with bbPress so that WP functions can be used for bringing the WordPress stuff inside bbPress (theme, sidebars, widgets etc)

[notApro]

Hello to all,

New member here..

I’am not a pro at coding but i know how to install WordPress and upload free theme’s and change the layouts with html and css. (design part)

But i’am getting better very day to understand more .php also.

But now i would like to make a forum behind my website (WordPress) that is simple for people like me to understand.

bbPress looks good for me, and i was searching around on this forum about bbPress and i have seen lots of time the term used by people “DEEP integration” what does it mean?

And what will be the different from just installing it?

Thanks.

BJ

[chrishajer]

What plugins *were* you running? Anything that affects permissions or making forums hidden or for moderation or anything like that? Did you map the roles between WordPress and bbPress (if you’re integrated)?
