I used bbPress plugin to an existing WordPress installation and it works great. I wanted also to allow users to upload their own avatars. For that purpose I installed Loise Dade’s Avatar Upload plugin, but upon activation, nothing really happens.
Is there a way I can allow users to upload avatars when bbPress is installed as a plugin?
No, problem is with bbPress. When the permalinks in WordPress are enabled, this works fine. If the permalinks are disabled, URL’s are not generated properly, and some parts of URL are missing. I have confirmed this with TwentyTen theme built in bbPress. All tested with lates bbPress from SVN trunk.
This is a bug with the plugin, the plugin doesn’t expect the /forum to be there so it adds its own, causing a conflict with the site. Maybe contacting the plugin creator and telling him about this bug will help.
Hi. I installed bbpress 2 years ago and then removed all the program files via FTP after all the php files got hacked, but I just noticed that the database files are still there. I would like to reinstall bbpress and reconnect to that database to preserve the old posts.
I have uploaded the latest bbpress install files to my site and can access the install screen http://myplasticfreelife.com/discuss/install.php. But when I enter the database information, I get the error “There was a problem connecting to the database you specified. Please check the settings, then try again.”
Is there a workaround? Is it having a problem because the bbpress tables already exist? Is there a way to reconnect?
Thanks,
Beth Terry
BBpress isn’t a wordpress plugin, however if installed on the same website as wordpress you can share users. Maybe I can help you setup bbpress properly?
Whats the URL to your bbpress site? Is your htaccess file writable? Have you tried adding a trailing / to your profile url?
Can we please try to keep the discussion in this topic on bbPress, and not use it to support each others plugins?

I fixed the toolbar issues by re-installing the plugin and the toolbar not works good. but I may have an issue with where it places smileys. It went the the end of the post so I’m not sure what that is about… but I’ll see if I can lock it down…

This will probably come down the pipe eventually, and is something someone can do and contribute back to core also. Any takers?
Is this issue still unresolved? I just went through all the steps to install 1.03 and I didn’t do anything other than try to set the time zone to -8 hours and now I can no longer get into general settings. Any suggestions? I would like to replace the options-general file but I fear that it may render the whole installation useless. That is if this little bug has not already done that for me.
Please Help!
I have little experience editing PHP but If told what module to edit and what line to put it in on then I might have a chance..
I have to go to the branch software since I lost the settings page. I have the first two items in the settings bet the rest of the page is blank…

Example:
Invision: http://community.invisionpower.com/
phpBB: http://www.phpbb.com/community/
vBulletin: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/
I want to get this result with bbPress:
http://blogame.com.br/forum/
############################################
With the default structure of great forums:
Category 1
– Forum 1
— Subforum 1, Subforum 2, Subforum 3
– Forum 2
– Forum 3
Category 2
– Forum 4
– Forum 5
— Subforum 4
– Forum 6
############################################
With a “friendly space” between category 1 and category 2.
Because there are many forums.
I Would like a theme that had it, I do not need to change anything, just add the categories, forums and the Subforums in admin panel WordPress.
Tks.
Fixed in branch. Will be fixed in next release.

I explained a similar/same issue here: http://master5o1.com/topic/post-toolbar/
and another similar thing here: http://master5o1.com/topic/position-of-bbpress-post-toolbar/
Turn manual insertion on in the options and then put <?php do_action( 'bbp_post_toolbar_insertion' ); ?> in your theme files. Probably somewhere.
If bbPress is running with theme compatability mode then I’m not sure why it _isn’t_ showing.
If it isn’t in compatability, then I think your theme doesn’t have the RC3 hooks that I am using.
I uploaded and activated the plugin (RC3 installed and working) and I allowed most items to be uploaded. I (for now, left the smilies in default). Now where would I see this toolbar?
I assumed users would see it as they are posting a topic in the forum…
Did I misread the intent of the toolbar?
Here’s one of my topics… http://jeff-foliage.com/forums/topic/connecticut-trip-planned-for-fall-foliage/
The bbPress plugin should use the WordPress timezone. Can you post a link to your forums or any other additional details?
Yeah, kind of. Dev version has the max file size equal to the php.ini setting, upload_max_filesize. You can actually just replace your copy of the toolbar-images-panel.php with the one in trunk and it will be fixed.
I kinda want a few more things done before I make a 0.6.1 or something…and more time between them -_- Don’t like annoying people with overly frequent updates -_-
The file in trunk: view | download
There should be an option in the settings for max file size… Good job though, the plugin look better and better.
When I post to my forum, the timestamp on the post are 7 hours in the past, wordpress has the correct timezone with is us pacific time.
I don’ t see anywhere I can set timezone in bbpress
The feeds are still not working by the way. It is not possible to get a full feed of all new posts and replies of the forum anywhere, or any subforum for that matter. even if I add /feed/ to a URL
would be highly appreciated.

I installed RC3 and it broke!
I get a page not found on all the entries.
The widget still seems to work, the admin panel too but all the links to the forum are broken.
To fix this please go into the settings at
/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbpress
and save them w/o editing something and it will work again.
