Can anyone advise me where exactly to add the code for a paypal donate button if I wan it to show on my main bbpress page? I appreciate it. Thanks.
Any word if this version will play better with login integration on WordPress?

Really had a great time playing with bbpress again to create http://wannaverb.com – a discussion site to help connect people with similar interests, allow them to post activities and see who else would be interesting in attending that movie, going for weekly walks our heading to the pub. It’s just about ready to go live, just thought it deserved to be posted here before anywhere else.
In bbpress.php, topics and replies have 'revisions', as one of their features. Comment out those two lines.

here’s how i done it (1.0.2 to 1.0.3):
1- backup the bb-config.php or write down the database name, user and password.
2- delete “bb-admin”, “bb-includes” and “bb-templates” folders and all the single files from the bbpress root directory with the exception of “.htacess”
3- download bbpress, extract the contents to a folder, rename bb-config-sample.php to bb.config.php and edit it with the details from step 1.
4- send everything from that folder to your bbpress root directory clicking yes if your ftp program asks to overwrite files on the server.
it worked for me but i not using pluggins that allow visitors to upload files or images

Will upgrading help with the 100’s of spam posts im getting on my forum? I have had to take it off line!?
So i just download the new bbpress zip file and replace all the contents on my ftp? And my theme files wont be affected?
Do my theme files need to be updated as well?
Thanks

Upgrade the same way you upgrade wordpress.
You can install the new version over the old copy, just don’t delete anything.
Just make sure your template directory is not the same as bbpress default (kakumei) which you seem to be using “mytheme” so that’s fine.

Thanks

Hacked means they injected javascript and such that was never meant to be posted by anyone.
Spammed is just malicious posts. If you are simply spammed, install askismet and a captcha plugin or my Human Test plugin.
Also, if you are running bbPress 1.0.2 make sure you upgrade to 1.0.3

Hi Mike, you are welcome to submit your plugin.
There may just be a css problem with the form in your browser?
I see the form just fine and it “works for me” ?

These are the changes between 1.0.2 and 1.0.3
https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset/2958/tags/1.0.3?old=2339&old_path=%2Ftags%2F1.0.2
unfortunately the mime property was modified on files that were otherwise unchanged, so the file list looks huge, but most of them are unaffected.
also /jquery/interface.js was added in 1.0.3 but for some wrong reason they are using the packed version which is slower because it has to be unpacked on every page load, it should be the minified only version without packing and just let gzip do the compression work between the server and the browser
I’ve edited down the list and removed the property-only changes

bbPress 0.9 users should install my unofficial “block-long-queries” mini-plugin to avoid the security bug that 1.0.3 fixes and similar unknown attacks in the future.
(it also works in 1.0 and WordPress)

All bbpress 1.0.x users should immediately upgrade to bbPress 1.0.3
(It was released February 23rd but there was no announcement or blog entry)

It is mostly just a security update to 1.0.2 – there are no new features.
bbPress 1.1 with additional features will have a release candidate within a week or two, however you should NOT skip this 1.0.3 update.
Trac unfortunately doesn’t disclose where the tag was created from, the only documentation is the comment JJJ made.
https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset/2930
However it’s easy to test.
Checkout a copy from the trunk, then do a “switch” to tag/1.0.3 and see what files (if any are changed).
The SVN itself may disclose more details but let’s see what happens…
ah no, I forgot the trunk is actually 1.1
Yeah 1.0.3 is a branch from 1.0.2, not the trunk.
If a fix wasn’t committed to the 1.0 branch, it won’t be in 1.0.3
But you can always use the trunk for 1.1 preview
