Topic: PHP if/else arguments
Hi all,
I’m used to using conditionals within PHP if/else arguments such as is_page_template, is_page, is_front_page, and so on within WordPress. However, I’d like to apply some within my bbpress theme (to change the title of seperate sections of the forums) and I’d love to know which conditionals are appropriate/different within bbpress.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
Many thanks,
Xander
Topic: Header Invalid
I downloaded the plugin for WordPress 2.8.4, and tried activating it. However, when I activated it, I was taken to a page that said, “This plugin does not have a valid header.” What does that mean? I am so excited about using bbpress, but I can’t.
Topic: Forums as Comment engine?
i just added bbpress to my website and the admin pages aren’t working at all. in fact, nothing really works other than the main page comes up and clicking on any link just makes the page do a never-ending refresh. the install said there were some “minor” errors in the install, but i couldn’t figure out what they were. i did install it to connect to my wordpress site with a separate database, if that helps any.
Hey all –
Just started playing with bbpress last night & I am both totally hooked and somewhat frustrated, which seems to be my standard reaction to new software. I’m fluent in HTML, conversational in CSS and have worked with WordPress code before so I’m not completely in the dark, but there’s enough of a learning curve here that I have a few things I’d love some help with, if someone had a moment. Here’s the first two:
1. I would like my forum to be completely private – i.e., people would have to register or login on some sort of splash page before they reached the forum. In searching around these boards I found this plugin, but I just get a big ol’ 404 Not Found when I try to download it (and it looks like it’s a ways behind bbpress v1.0.2 anyway). Is this what I should be using instead? And if so, where exactly would it go, and on what page(s)?
2. I’m trying to add a “topic started by” field to the list of threads; I can get it to show up in the header row but I can’t get the fields in the actual table to show up. See what I mean? That’s no good. It’s probably some stupid PHP thing missing a thing (man, PHP is unforgiving) but I just can’t find it. Here’s the code I’m using:
<?php if ( $topics || $stickies ) : ?>
<table id="latest">
<tr>
<th><?php _e('topic'); ?> — <?php new_topic(); ?></th>
<th><?php _e('started by'); ?></th>
<th><?php _e('posts'); ?></th>
<th><?php _e('last poster'); ?></th>
<th><?php _e('last post'); ?></th>
</tr>
<?php if ( $stickies ) : foreach ( $stickies as $topic ) : ?>
<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>
<td><?php bb_topic_labels(); ?><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a></td>
<td class="num"><?php topic_author(); ?></td>
<td class="num"><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>
<td class="num"><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td>
<td class="num"><a href="<?php topic_last_post_link(); ?>"><?php topic_time(); ?></a></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach; endif; ?>Lord knows I have more questions, but let’s start with those. Any help would be very much appreciated…thanks!!
Topic: “deep” integration
I have already installed and integrated bbPress to WordPress MU on my site, and I need to know if i can add the following:
require_once(‘path/to/wp-blog-header.php’); in bbPress’ bb-config.php (wp-blog-header is in the same
directory as WordPress’ wp-config.php file).
without messing anything up or do I need to reinstall bbPress again and do this process at the beginning?
Hello All.
I am trying to install bbPress to my WordPress MU installation for 4th time now.
During the installation process, in the Step 2 where we have the option to integrate the Forums with WordPress, I type all the AUTH keys and all other keys and user database settings correctly, but it ends up showing the following error.
“There was a problem connecting to the WordPress user database you specified. Please check the settings, then try again.”
I’m 100% sure I’ve typed the correct data. Okay. So I skipped the User integration part and proceed to finish the installation. Then, I get my Forums set up. Nice and running. Good. But in the Admin page, if I try to integrate the users with WordPress, I am suddenly logged out of my account and my Admin account is vanished.
If I try to log-in, it says there’s no such account and I can’t access the Admin page any longer/
Why is this happening and what should I do?
I integrated wordpress with BBpress, using the bbPress-WordPress syncronization plugin, it works fine, but I want to link the comments button under the post to direct to the proper forum topic. Is there a way to do this? Or a plugin for this?
EDIT: Actually, nevermind. After making a few posts and reading the hundreds of comments, it’s clear that this plugin is still buggy and not complete, and every other sync plugin is out of date. Off to try something else, BBpress has nothing yet to offer that any other forum doesn’t already have if it can’t integrate completely with wordpress..

What am I doing wrong, why can’t I get past this part? Do I have to edit a certain file? Just today I installed phpbb3 with these setting, why isn’t it working with bbpress?
I’m looking to actually tie a forum system to a blog (Preferably WordPress)
Preferably all of the comments associated with each article would be viewable on the page as normal, but the user could also link over to the forum to read/discuss there.
The ideal situation would be that when a new blog post is posted, a new thread is created at the same time in the forum with the same title as the blog article.
Is bbPress up to this task, or is anyone aware of something that is more or less “off the shelf” with similar functionality?
Thanks for any help!
