Thats why Akismet sucks for BBpress. And thank you for documenting this once again. Some people in here need to hear this.

Stop using it. Simple as that. It´s not made for a forum. It´s made for blogs.

No, bbPress doesn’t have a module/widget system.

Am I missing something or bbpress does not have any block system? Im so used to joomla or other cms where blocks are used to place anything anywhere. I hope its available.

Hello there, after releasing my sites latest version, v.3, i included a questions and answers section, and i searched around the net for the best free, stable, and flexible open source script to start customizing it, i tried alot, and finally did it with BbPress,

actually it’s highly customized and you should sign up if you want to see all of it’s features, please leave your feedback.

the link is here.

Hey Mike,

Welcome! I’m not a dev here, but currently there is an effort to rewrite bbpress as a wordpress plugin. This process is making many plugins for bbpress obsolete. There is some discussion about making it possible to use bbpress plugins with the new bbpress-plugin in WP, but that feature is not guaranteed.

Despite the effort towards bbpress-plugin, there likely will remain a community around bbpress standalone which will continue to use the current plugins. You are welcome to continue writing plugins for the standalone version. I am not sure, however, how you should go about submitting that since I am not a dev. Perhaps jumping on the bbpress IRC channel you can find someone.

As a sidenote, from what I understand, most people use a combination of Akismet and a human test to prevent spam. For those who desire a CAPTCHA, there is already a reCAPTCHA plugin available.

Best of luck!

I want to add support for bbPress to SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam plugin.

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/

I cannot find the needed do_action hooks.

/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/bbpress

I started looking in these templates, they do not have the action hooks that would let me add a CAPTCHA:

form-topic.php

form-anonymous.php

I’ve just installed bbPress and integrated with WordPress. All was well until I renamed the file folder to “forums” from “bbPress”. Everything is working perfectly except I cannot edit user profiles! They can register and all else seems to work on the site and the Admin, just no editing the user profile pages (either from the forum or from admin).

When I attempt to edit user profile it switched to my WordPress and gives me a “Error 404: Page Not Found”.

Here is a sample URL: “http://jernigan.co/forums/profile/admin”

thanks a heap….this finally got me started…

I am having exactly the same problem.

I can go one step farther: when I ask bbpress to send me my Key Master account’s password, it tells me that the user doesn’t exist!

Hi,

I’ve been searching for some hours now but I guess I don’t find the answer because it must be an easy answer

I’ve successfully integrated BP 1.03 in my WO 3.1 and everything works fine so far.

But the forum looks like it’s another site, I mean it’s basicaly due to the template.

My wish is to have my BBPRESS installed into a WP Page (such as simple:press plugin for example) or just like it is on this very bbpress.org website !

Any clue about how to do it ?

Thanks for your help

[Mike Challis]

How can I add a plugin to this site?

I am already a WordPress plugin developer. My WordPress plugins have over 2 million downloads. I made a CAPTCHA plugin for bbPress, I would like to add it. Thanks for any help.

I am logged on, went to this page:

http://bbpress.org/plugins/forum/requests

I clicked on the big button “Add your plugin”

There is no form, just this message:

---

Add Your Plugin

You can add the plugin you’ve written to the plugin directory by filling out the form below.

This form is only for plugin developers. If you’d like to see a plugin listed here, please contact that plugin’s author.

I need some help with the CSS… I can’t seem to figure out what I need to change in the CSS so that it does not completely mess up my layout.

http://groceryvine.com/community/forum/groceryvine/

I’m just using the BBPress.css at the moment.

I just want to fit the forums into my normal post/page area

[bonnie808]

I’ve seen a few topics addressing this issue but none of them could fix it or the post was 4 years old!

I installed wordpress 3.1 in my main directory

I installed BBPress 1.0.3 in a folder in my main directory

– Both use the same database

BBPress worked perfect and I could access the admin dashboard.

I used the bbpress dashboard to integrate WP.

– mapped user roles (Key master – Administrator etc…) then saved.

– filled out the other fields correctly and saved.

Right after i saved it i was booted out of the admin and could not log-in again.

I tried using the bbpress and WP login/password, both did not work.

I compared the keys in both configs and they were correct

I compared the salts from my db to my wp-config and they were correct

I cleared my browser cache and that didn’t work

Since it seems like an internal scripting bug, How do i fix this manually???

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Mahalo in advance!

For what it’s worth all, I’m using a variety of plugins in my WP site and they seem to work fine with bbP. Haven’t run into any particularly nasty issues so far… they’ve just worked. Stuff like private messaging, capability manager, “first time visit message” plugins, breadcrumbs, etc.
