Did JJJ sneak in and update the first post again?

All done except

Template – 90%

Tag Tools – In progress

which is realy cool, thanks to everyone that has worked on the plugin!

Is it possible to import the user accounts, boards, and posts from my old SMF forum? I saw that there are some WP plug-ins that automate this, but they require that the forum be in a sub-directory. Currently, my WP installation and integrated BBPress forum (beta) is http://leftcoastlogic.com/blog/forum, but the current active forum is http://leftcoastlogic.com/forum

I appreciate that “super sticky” or “stick to front” should do what you expect it to do, but it’s worth also rethinking what you want, and how it could be handled in a different way now that bbP is a plugin.

You appear to want every forum to have at the top a link to a closed topic with one post in it.

Well, couldn’t your forum guidelines content be a WordPress page? Then you could plonk a link in the relevant template and style it how you like?

(Or, have a widget area, or a special menu – something that would let you change the links and link text without having to change the template). In fact you could keep it as a topic, just link to it a different way.

I know super stickies are how forums normally handle this sort of thing, but not all the traditional fudges need to be carried across to bbP-as-plugin.

Hi!

I installed bbpress under http://www.sitename.com/forum. Everything went fine but I can’t access the admin panel.

http://www.sitename.com/forum/bb-admin wont load anything only the forum page again.

See part two of my question….

Also, if I am logged into wordpress (using my forum administrator name), and go to the forum, and then click the ADMIN link, nothing happens. The page should send me to http://montecristoowners.com/forum/bb-admin/ … but the page doesnt change.

…. that is all through the forum (since the logins are tied together).

Anyway, it just started working. Not sure what I did.

however, if I go into my WordPress administration, there is NO bbpress

bbPress is not a wordpress plugin and so it cannot be administrated from the WordPress admin panel.

I just installed bbpress at my site.

http://montecristoowners.com/forum/

I’m using bbpress-1.0.3 and wordpress 3.1.1 …

The installation appeared to go smoothly (no errors, the tables for the forum appear in my database). You can see by the page above, that the forum is up and running … however, if I go into my WordPress administration, there is NO bbpress. I checked under SETTINGS, but the BBPress doesn’t appear there.

Also, if I am logged into wordpress (using my forum administrator name), and go to the forum, and then click the ADMIN link, nothing happens. The page should send me to http://montecristoowners.com/forum/bb-admin/ … but the page doesnt change.

What happened? How can I fix this?

@padams

The registration is handled by WordPress (so the back-end part of the Recaptcha plugin currently available would be the same). Only the template is shown by bbPress, and you can make use of the ‘register_form’ action.

[padams]

What hooks does bbPress plugin use during new user registrations? I’m looking to write a recaptcha plugin but not sure what hooks might be available when a new user registers.

Quick followup –

I “unstuck” that post and saw there is a new method for getting a “super sticky” – “stick to front”. So I tried that, and though I can see the “super” attribute in the query string, it doesn’t seem to work as the post is not anywhere but its original sub-forum.

The instalation was completed but during the integration whith WordPress, when ask me for the key master, I said admin and there was an error.

Now, I can`t re-install bbPress and in the dashboard of wordpress theres not nothing about bbPress. I used the same database of WordPress.

Any idea. What can I do now.

Thanks!.

@JJJ – I greatly appreciate you fixing my “Close Topic” bug! Unfortunately it appears to break super sticky posts.

The particular topic I want to close, is a super stick with some “forum guidelines” that should be visible everywhere. When I close it now, it’s visible in the original forum it was created in, but nowhere else.

So we have half the problem solved, at least the topic IS visible to other users.

Looking forward to a full fix on this one!

As for favorites and subscriptions, the problem is that the buttons for choosing them in the first place, aren’t available. They exist in the code, but are not present visually to the user, to be able to press them. What’s the best way to actually enable these features?

Also for anyone else this may help – here is how I updated painlessly (and will do so going forward)

1) Download latest branch and edit bbpress.php, changing the plugin name to add the specific branch number

2) Rename new plugin folder name to “bbpress xxxx” where “xxxx” is the version number”

3) Upload folder to plugins folder of my WP install

4) Deactivate old bbPress plugin

5) Activate new “bbpress xxxx” plugin

6) Move theme from old bbP to new bbP

7) Enable theme in the new bbP

Profit!

This worked great for me, no conflicts, no worries of overwriting files, etc. Very smooth and easy to degrade back again if I need to.

@JJJ honestly, I would consider it, but I can’t tell if this is going to be another half finished abandoned project like 1.0 was. What you guys are doing is great, but if WordPress HQ isn’t commited to seriously supporting the project this time, I can’t say I’m hopeful.

Don’t mean to be too negative, I’m just saying what many are thinking.

I’ve installed the plugin bbpress-polls and it seems to be working. Since ive modified my theme the polls dont show up but i can add questions and so on.

Is there any way to show the poll under the topic title or something. Or before the first post.

Hello,

WP 3.1.1 multisite

bbPress 1.0.3

bbpress NOT required installation. I’m going to http://www.mysite.com/bbpress and show apage with “Page not found! I’m sorry, but there is nothing at this URL.”

Anybody can help me? Thanks

[John James Jacoby]

You can give the trunk version of bbPress a try. It comes with this ability in core, and is near the end of development.

Dear all

It seems frustrating to find what I thought would be an easy enough to find topic. Maybe I’m searching wrong but here goes.

After a lot of hours I finally managed to integrate WP and bbPress. I managed to create a link to my bbPress. The final step before i take a break is to create a link back to WP in my bbPress.

The closest I could find to clear cut directions was here:

http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/link-header-image-to-wordpress

I followed the instructions and changed

<h1>”><?php bb_option(‘name’); ?></h1>

to

<a href="http://www.my website.com” "><Back to my website</a>

and when I get to the forum site there is nothing. No link back to my website.

(I know it looks weird to have com” “> but somehow without the second ” my bbpress log in, search box, etc gets crammed into the right side of the header)

Could anyone explain exactly how and where to change this line? Is there anything else I must change? Maybe…

… it’s because I should omit the “www”?

… I need to have the “/home” for my website?

For reference, here’s how my original header.php looks like

<?php

$_head_profile_attr = ”;

if ( bb_is_profile() ) {

global $self;

if ( !$self ) {

$_head_profile_attr = ‘ profile=”http://www.w3.org/2006/03/hcard”&#8216;;

}

}
