Thank you Adam for the work that you do.

This update you mention, would it happen to contain a converter for phpBB to bbpress as well (keeping fingers on both hands tightly crossed and holding my breath!)?

Can we post a link to a beginners’ guide for creating bbPress themes at the beginning of this topic, with the rest of the FAQ links, please? It’s kind of confusing as to where to find this information. Also, I would appreciate somebody replying to me as to where to find it while I wait for it to be added to this topic http://methoo.com

I have a website I’m going to add forums to and I’m thinking about using bbPress. But there is something I’m not liking when I’m trying it out. I don’t like how when a user isn’t logged in it says “You must be logged in to reply to this topic.” below the posts.

Is there a way to change that text to something more user friendly. Like please login or register to reply with links to a way to login or register.

Below is the link to the first forum that I have made with bbpress.

I have one reservation which is in the sub menu to the forums button I’ve included a page as a site map for the forum. The reason that I did this was that I thought that the forum index page looked a bit cluttered in places. I did think of putting links with the titles on the forum map page but thought that it might discourage users from using the real thing.

What do you think?

It is part of a larger site and I don’t know how to segregate it. The link is direct to the forum page.

Sorry guys been slammed I will try to get the update out before weekend is out. Today have to finish up another project so no way it will be today. So look for it in coming days.

[Anointed]

I’d suggest creating a trac ticket with a link to the site with the problems so that JJ can take a peek someday.

I had the problem in prior vs. but with the newest vs. of bbPress and my new custom theme I do not have these problems anymore. I never was able to figure out what the cause was.

[Anointed]

I actually have no estimates right now for added features. Adam is absolutely slammed at work right now. I know he is working on a more streamlined vs. of the plugin, but do not know if it is going to include new importers or not.

*If you are a programmer, the plugin is built to be easily extended for new systems. If not, I know that he offers a paid service for custom conversions.

Beyond that I have no new news to report.

Hi,

On my website I have in root folder of the domain (www.example.com/) all html static pages. Some time ago I installed on that website the WordPress package, for blogging. As it was allowed in standard setup, WordPress files are located in http://www.example.com/wp/ folder and blog is accessible via http://www.example.com/blog/.

Recently I decided to add forum to the site, using existing WordPress installation. After bbress plugin installation, when I configure the forum, it is by default appended to blog – current WordPress starting folder and addressed as http://www.example.com/blog/forum/, which is messy and confusing.

How to setup bbpress in this environment to have forum root separated and directed to http://www.example.com/forum/ in parallel to blog http://www.example.com/blog/?

Any help would be really appreciated.

Hi there Anointed One. I urgently wish to convert my phpBB forum to bbpress.

Can you give me a ‘rough’ estimate on when this plugin can also do phpbb conversions?

Many thank in advance!

hi brother,

I created in /wp-content/languages/ a bbpress directory (/wp-content/languages/bbpress) and I updated bbpress-tr_TR.mo and bbpress-tr.po files to this directory and than I updated the mo and po /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-languages

I changed bbpress.php load_textdomain() function (line 524 ATM).

public function load_textdomain() {

// Allow locale to be filtered

$locale = apply_filters( ‘bbpress_locale’, get_locale() );

// Get mo file name

$mofile = sprintf( ‘bbpress-tr_TR.mo’, $locale );

// Setup paths to current locale file

$mofile_local = $this->lang_dir . ‘/’ . $mofile;

$mofile_global = WP_LANG_DIR . ‘/bbpress/’ . $mofile;

// Look in local /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-languages/ folder

if ( file_exists( $mofile_local ) )

return load_textdomain( ‘bbpress-tr_TR.po’, $mofile_local );

// Look in global /wp-content/languages/ folder

elseif ( file_exists( $mofile_global ) )

return load_textdomain( ‘bbpress-tr_TR.po’, $mofile_global );

// Nothing found

return false;

}

I use bbpress plugin 2.0.1

My WP version is 3.2.1

%100 I did somethinh wrong because my english is not very good.

What can be going wrong?

Thank you.

I updated the plugin this morning but it doesn’t solve the problem here…

[Anointed]

I believe JJ fixed this issue a couple of days ago. If you check the latest plugin download from today it may solve your problem.

Hi.

I have some problems to use bbPress 2 with a full custom theme. bbPress is globally working and the forums are displaying correctly but some views don’t work properly. Example: the topic-tag view, which actually lists all topics of the forums, without taking the selected tag in account. I have the same behavior with the search results (I use the bbPress Search Widget plugin).

1. When I use the default bbPress theme, it works.

2. When I use my own custom bbPress theme, the problem happens.

3. When I override files in the default theme folder (not recommended), it works.

4. When I use the default bbPress theme as if it was a custom one (copy/paste of the folder, etc.) the problem happens too.

So it’s not related to my theme as it happens with the default theme files too, as soon as they’re not in the default folder.

What could it be related to?

Hi,

I’m trying to get new-topics-archive to show on my forum front page and to show all my forum pages in a simple left-aligned-sidebar structure, a structure that’s the opposite of the rest of the WP site(right-aligned sidebar).

I created a bbpress.php file with this structure, but it’s not being recognized. Instead, it’s defaulting to my template page.php file. I tried bbpress.php and forum.php, but neither works.

And once I get all that working, a shortcode on the forum front page should make it show the new-topics-archive, right? But that isn’t working either.

Any thoughts?

I have install wordpress and bbpress seperately.

http://www.sscn.jp

http://bbs.sscn.jp

but the database name is the same.

I find twitter tool for wp.

>Frankly it should not be that difficult to modify a number of the twitter posting plugins to work with >bbPress as bbPress uses WordPress standards 100%.

But I do not konw programmin.

I am wondering why nobody make such plugin for bbpress.

I think many bbpress users are searching for it.

[brucini]

which ignore plugin were you using?

the old CK one?

I need one too, for memembers to use. one which is compatible with latest bbpress version

anyone know?

[ledsales]

Same prob here, yet another scary bbpress bug by the look of it. Just checked our forum database and there are now hundreds of topics with their data set to blank and topic start times set to 0000-00-00 00:00:00 which is what causes the error. If you have a database backup, use it, if not, delete these topics…

I just wanted to post, and suggest or see if these options existed already.

I’d love for the widgets that come along with bbPress to have some (any) custom display features (ie. Forum List widget allowing show/hide the number of topics within, etc.)

Also, a few more widgets would be great (ie. popular topic tags, topic info)

These options might be able to be accomplished by a shortcode, but I don’t believe the current shortcodes allow any parameters such as: [bbp-topic-index number-of-topics=5 pagination=false]

Anyone know of plans for these sorts of things, or if they already exist and I’ve just overlooked them?

Thanks.

[Anointed]

Nothing specific to bbPress, however topics are nothing more than a custom post-type for WordPress.

That means if you can find a twitter plugin for WordPress where the plugin author set it up to work with custom post-types, then you are set. Frankly it should not be that difficult to modify a number of the twitter posting plugins to work with bbPress as bbPress uses WordPress standards 100%.

Thank you to wmnasef for this script!

I used the updated script provided by Abdessamad Idrissi at http://code.google.com/p/phpbb3-to-bbpress1-converter/downloads/list on my phpBB3 forum.

The conversion went smoothly and I could see the posts from my old forum appear in my bbpress forum.

However, all the posts had the authors listed as Anonymous, which means none of the users accounts were ported over.

Can someone help with this please? How did this happen and how can I fix this?

[Uefkaah]

So I am using BB Press on a Russian website and I see the BBpress.pot file in the Languages folder that has all the text that appears on my site..from the widget to the forum etc… I have tried changing the text that appears on my website, however, it still doesn’t change anything on my actual website (I need to change it into Russian).

If you look at my footer, you can see where there is a BBPress login- I have tried changing that text to Russian, but it does not work.

Any Thoughts??

in your bbpress theme file bbpress/content-single-user.php is what calls all the different sections of your forum profile, so you should be able to find the calls in there.

Incase you are having trouble locating it

<?php do_action( 'bbp_template_notices' );



// Profile details

bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/user', 'details'        );



// Subscriptions

bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/user', 'subscriptions'  );



// Favorite topics

bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/user', 'favorites'      );



// Topics created

bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/user', 'topics-created' );

I want to post to twitter as soon as I post in bbpress.
