Thanks. The error I get is call to undefined function add_meta_box() in bbpress.php, so was wondering if it was supposed to be differently.

Sorry about noobish questions! I am learning most of it.

@miruru – Thanks for the kind words. Right now shortcodes are pretty limited to major template functions, like complete single forums, single topics, etc… I’m open to more shortcodes, but we should assemble and break them into template parts or functions as needed (to make overriding and customizing them easier.)

[miruru]

The plugin is looking fantastic and so far no issues.

Is there a shortcode to display the author name of the topic. I have tried everything but cannot display the name. Ive managed to display the WordPress username (author/name) but not the bbPress username (user/name) as they both display two different pages.

Thank you for all the hard work to everything working on this plugin.

@tooltrainer – Looks like it’s working okay to me. Tested on 3 different installations, incuding over at testbp.org.

I did put quite a few changes through in the past 10 hours, so it’s not completely impossible that something changed and is causing this. Can you try the latest revision of the plugin and see if that fixes it?

[tooltrainer]

OK this is weird, users can’t create topics in my forums anymore. When they try, the page refreshes and they’re just shown their same topic creation form with their content still in it, but nothing is ever created.

Also, I can’t create a topic that contains apostrophes or quotes in the title or body. They come back escaped, and when I try to save again, it escapes again, ad infinitum! Is there something crazy going on with a sanitization routine or something?

Not sure if these two issues are related but if anyone can steer me in the right direction on either of them, I’d sure appreciate it. I thought I was ready to go live but wouldn’t you know it… 11th hour troubles!

P.S.

This is only referring to creating topics via the normal front-end of the site. I can create them in the admin backend just fine.

P.P.S.

Replies work just fine, it’s only creating topics that users are unable to do.

“I know it is still not finished, but I was just playing around with a local installation and had bbpress up and working, but when I activated Buddypress it completely stopped bbPress, pages would just redirect to the blog’s front page.”

@Christopher Jon

Thanks for the quick fix!!!

[Ricardo]

i downloaded the last free WPML version and i was able to create a po file with all the english strings (158 entries), we can start translating…

@JJJ

can we use the mo files with the latest bbpress?

Thanks you guys…

I’m out of here,.. nothing personal but bbpress (as far as I am concerned) is Bugged Like Hell.

If you ask “normal users” like me, myself and I to start fiddling with the SQL tables and adjust a tiny bit of PHP code here and there, then, and trust me, you have got a BIG problem.

After my third install (intent) on a localhost MAMP server that runs 2 instances of WP and an instance of JOOMLA – all flawlessly – I got this nice little message:

Database error: [Table ‘fdzforum.bb_posts’ doesn’t exist]
INSERT INTO bb_posts (topic_id,post_text,post_time,poster_id,poster_ip,post_status,post_position,forum_id) VALUES (‘1′,'<p>First Post! w00t.n</p>n’,’2011-05-08 11:05:12′,’1′,’::1′,’0′,’1′,’1′)
Caller: BB_Install->BB_Install, BB_Install->process_form, BB_Install->process_form_finalise_installation, bb_insert_post

Database error: [Table ‘fdzforum.bb_posts’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT p.* FROM bb_posts AS p WHERE p.post_id != ‘0’ AND p.topic_id = ‘1’ AND p.poster_id = ‘1’ AND p.post_status = ‘0’ ORDER BY p.post_time DESC LIMIT 30
Caller: BB_Install->BB_Install, BB_Install->process_form, BB_Install->process_form_finalise_installation, bb_insert_post, BB_Query->BB_Query, BB_Query->query, bb_cache_posts

Caller: BB_Install->BB_Install, BB_Install->process_form, BB_Install->process_form_finalise_installation, bb_insert_post, bb_update_topic_voices

So cheerio, gimme a call when you have an install that works,

Hi, I had this same problem,

Topics created, posts counted, but no posts shown

you can change the php as described and fix the sql – reinstall and you’ll get your table, or just check your mysql log and see if the erroneous sql is there and fix it.

¿Alguien tiene alguna traducción al español o al catalán (mejor al catalán) de BBpress?

No la encuentro por ningún lado.

[Ladyelav]

I received the email to set up the bbpress, but when I click on the link, it takes me to a blank page? Now what?

Thanks

[appliantologist]

Hello,

I set up bbpress on http://russianextreme.tv/forums/ with wordpress integration,

I am try to access http://russianextreme.tv/forums/bb-admin and http://russianextreme.tv/bb-admin where else or how can I determine what admin URL is required?

Also, when I set up Russia, the language files went into /bb-languages not my-languages, should I make the same for the plugin directory? bb-plugins instead of my-plugins like the documentation says?

Thanks,

David

I downloaded the bbpress app and deployed it on my Turnkey LAPP VM. Navigating to /bbpress nets me the bbpress installer page, but when I press the ‘Go to step 1’ button, I get no response, and no errors. I’ve tested the page on chrome and IE, the same thing happens.

I’ve thought of creating the ‘bb-config.php’ file myself and doing a manual configuration, but I wouldn’t know where to start.

Does anyone know either why the install isn’t working, how to find the error logs, or how I can build a config manually?

Much appreciated,

– Peter

Namaste!

Recently, even I installed bbPress on MAMP and it gave an error that the bb_posts table could not be created, a simple change in the query solved the problem though. Can you please check if you actually have the bb_posts table there?

@christopher-jon – Fixed.

[darkhog]

Note topic. While it may be misconfiguration on my side, and I think it is, it is very bad think.

I have portal based on WordPress and bbpress. New users on WP are registered as subscribents and for bbPress I have userDB integration (author, contributor and subscribent are translated to member). And while I can send PMs from/to key masters (made several test accounts), for “normal” users messages aren’t available.

So what I should do about that?

[jonkristian]

Just create a page and copy over the page template from the default theme:)
