Topic: Reply To Post
This is the request I receive most often on my forum, the ability to reply to a specific post on a thread.
Say that a user comes into a thread and finds about 40 responses on a thread, but wishes to respond to a comment somewhere in the middle. Yes, they could quote. But is there any way to add a Reply button to keep discussions connected? We do have this option on WordPress.
Thanks
Topic: unescaped characters
i’m having a problem with unescaped characters showing up in my forum entries – for instance, if there’s an apostrophe in an entry, it gets displayed as
'when people read the forum. if you later edit that entry, the next display is\'and so forth. it seems as if the engine isn’t un-escaping the characters.i’m using bbPress 1.0.1 and wordPress 2.8.1 at http://trashfilmorgy.com/
Topic: howto find user ids?
Hi all,
I am using the hidden forums plugin by _ck_ on bbPress 1.0.1 without any issues so far.
The only thing I am stuck on is getting the user id to add to the list of allowed users. It is not displayed in the bbPress users admin page, so I have to go back to the wordpress end, click on edit user & get the number from the URL.
I am using pretty permalinks in bbPress, so maybe thats why I don’t get it in the edit user profile URL there…
Anyone know of an easy way to display the user id in the bbPress back end?
I have installed my WordPress-MU 2.7 & bbPress1.0.1 and I also try to bridge the cookies between them.
Now the user data is shared by them. But I can’t make the cookie share work.
I have installed “bbPress Integration” plugin for WordPress. I also Copy these from wp-config:
define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘blahblah’);
define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘blahblah’);
define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘blahblah’);
define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘blahblah’);
define(‘AUTH_SALT’, ‘bliddyblah’);
define(‘LOGGED_IN_SALT’, ‘bliddyblah’);
Put them in bb-config.php with BB_ in front:
define(‘BB_AUTH_KEY’, ‘blahblah’);
define(‘BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘blahblah’);
define(‘BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘blahblah’);
define(‘BB_NONCE_KEY’, ‘blahblah’);
define(‘BB_AUTH_SALT’, ‘bliddyblah’);
define(‘BB_LOGGED_IN_SALT’, ‘bliddyblah’);
But I don’t know what I should fill in bbPress –> Dashboard –> Setting –> WordPress Integration. For example, where is WordPress “auth” cookie salt in WPMU? I also can’t find WordPress “secure auth” cookie salt & WordPress “logged in” cookie salt in my WordPress admin page.
Where can I find them in WPMU?
I’m looking to start up a book exchange for students at the university I attend. I want it to be very basic. People post the book along with some additional information (edition, price, condition, etc.) The posts would need to be searchable (of course), and there would have to be a way of viewing each department separately (for instance, just browsing the French books for sale).
I’ve been playing with Noah’s classifieds, and while it would work, I feel like I can do better. bbPress is very trim, which I like, and I’ve used wordpress a lot, which should be helpful. How well suited is bbPress for something like this?
First off, I would like to say hello this community. I have been a long time supporter of WordPress, and just recently started looking into bbPress. I am very impressed with the software so far, but would like to get a couple kinks ironed out.
I run my own gaming community at http://www.irefire.com. The main page is running off of the most recent version of WordPress. Our forums used to be PHPBB and a backup of them is at http://www.irefire.com/phpbb. Our new forums are running off of the most recent version of bbPress and are located at http://www.irefire.com/forums.
I converted our phpBB3 forums to bbPress (thanks to http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/phpbb3-gt-bbpress-converter-beta-release) but I must have done something wrong since no one’s password worked. It wasn’t a big deal since the community doesn’t have too many members, and they could just reset it. Then I integrated the userbase with my WordPress blog, and all of a sudden the only users I have are the ones that were in WordPress.
All of my users are gone except for those that were in WordPress. Even then, one of them (Giraffe) has been assigned as the author of posts he never wrote. Any help as to how to get my users back and on the forums (even if they have to reset their passwords) but keep it integrated with my WordPress (so they only need one account to post on the forums and comment on the blog) would be great. If I need to just do a clean install of bbPress and try pulling over the phpBB passwords correctly this time, help would be appreciated in how to do that.
Thank you so much.
Edit: I would also like to say that I have access to and limited knowledge of phpMyAdmin. I can still see all my old phpbb users in the _pbb database. All my the wordpress users are in my _wp database. If I could just throw the users from one database to the other, would that force them as registered users on both wordpress and bbpress?
Ok
I integrated WordPress 2.8.1 and bbPress 1.0.1 using the tutorial by Sam and it worked perfectly.
I did deep integration by adding:
if ( !defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) ) {
include_once( ‘/path/to/wp-load.php’ );
}
*with the correct path*
And again, worked. Now I want to load both stylesheets off WordPress and bbPress. Only WordPress loads it style sheet, bbPress returns a 404.
This didn’t happen with bbPress 0.9, anyone know why this happened?
Permissions are 755 on all files and folders.
I have discovered that there is a very easy way to integrate a BBPress forum inside of a WordPress blog. I havent found anyone in the forums doing it in this way so I will explain it here.
1. Asumed that you have instaled wordpress and bbpress, and you have integrated bbpress with wordpress following the steps showed in bbpress installation process.
2. You have to go to the administration pannel in your wordpress (wp-admin)
3. Create a page named Forum. Chose HTML and include the following code:
<iframe id=”forum” name=”forum” src=”http://your_url/bbpress_folder” frameborder=”0″ framespacing=”0″ scrolling=”auto” border=”0″ style=”width:925px; height:1000px; ” >
Sorry, your browser doens’t support iframe. Please upgrade your browsers.
</iframe>
replace the bold characters for the apropiate values in your web. The number in bold is the with of your blog. In that case (I use primepress theme) it is 925
4. Now we only have to add the widget to show the page, or like in my case, the theme shows all the pages in the blog as options in the header. We only have to remove the header and the footer of the forum.
5. In your bbpress directory go to bbtemplates and make a copy of kakumei directory. You could call it noheader directory and open it.
6. Open header.php and replace this
<body id=”<?php bb_location(); ?>”>
<div id=”wrapper”>
<div id=”main”>
<div class=”search” align=”right”>
<?php search_form(); ?>
</div>
<?php if ( bb_is_profile() ) profile_menu(); ?>
with this
<body id=”<?php bb_location(); ?>”>
<div id=”wrapper”>
<div id=”main”>
<div class=”search” align=”right”>
<?php search_form(); ?>
</div>
<?php if ( bb_is_profile() ) profile_menu(); ?>
7. Open footer.php and delete this section
<div id=”footer” role=”contentinfo”>
<p><?php printf(__(‘%1$s is proudly powered by bbPress.’), bb_option(‘name’), “http://bbpress.org”) ?></p>
<!– If you like showing off the fact that your server rocks –>
<!– <p class=”showoff”>
<?php
global $bbdb;
printf(
__( ‘This page generated in %s seconds, using %d queries.’ ),
bb_number_format_i18n( bb_timer_stop(), 2 ),
bb_number_format_i18n( $bbdb->num_queries )
);
?>
</p> –>
</div>
<?php do_action(‘bb_foot’); ?>
8. Open style.css and delete this
#wrapper {
background: #fff url(‘images/page_header_tile.png’) repeat-x 0px -15px;
}
9. You can add the reference a bbpress.org in the wordpress footer.
Hope this help
You can see the result here http://www.lamentiraestaahifuera.com
This is the forum page:
Both bbPress and WordPress can be integrated so the login is shared.
With bbPress 0.9 you will need special plugins to use WP 2.7 or 2.8
bbPress 1.0 can share the login with WP 2.7 or 2.8 without plugins.
However many plugins do not yet work with 1.0, so keep that in mind.
Real names as an option is nice but I’d hate to see it mandatory as some countries are trying to do. My experience is that people either have manners or they don’t, real names, in person, online or otherwise won’t stop rude people much. The problem is once your real name is online, your employer or in the USA your health insurance can use anything you say against you, no matter how innocent it might be.
But that doesn’t change the fact you should be able to use your native characters in bbPress and WordPress if you wish
I’m curious if the user login plugin above will also allow you to use your name with the login and not just the Display Name.
Note that bbPress 1.0 also allows you to login via your email address once you are registered. There is a plugin for 0.9 that does the same thing.
@andywilliams244 Try this for a nifty nav bar that shows at the very top of your site (maybe use this at the very top of both your WordPress and bbPress site?):
1) Check this link out: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic55647.html
2) What you want to do is make a really simple PHP file, lets call it “andybar.php” (if you have trouble making one copy one of your .php bbpress files and rename it)
3) Copy the code from that page into the php file. (you probably want to open with Notepad or Wordpad)
4) Fill in the links how you want them to be, like:
<li><a href="http://www.andywebsite.com">ANDY_WEBSITE</a></li>5) Save the php file and upload it into the folder of your theme.
6) Put this in the header where you want the bar to display:
<?php bb_head(); ?>
<?php include('andybar.php');?>
<br>
</head>7) The bar should appear at the very top of your bbPress site. You can easily change the colors with the CSS inside that one php file.
You might need to play with the bbPress CSS if there is a spacing issue above or below the bar. Hope this helps!
