I created a user for my bbPress forum and I could login as this user in bbPress, but not in WP. After I checked (logged as admin in WP) the account of this user in WP blog, I saw that it has no role. So in bbPress settings I set the correspondance between WordPress role and bbPress (Settings->WordPressIntegration menu). And problem was solved. Now each user that is registered through bbPress can loggin in WP.

Maybe this will help.

There’s a widget.

First off, I am new to bbpress forums. Secondly, I was in the market for a WordPress theme so I was visiting Themefuse.com. I was in their Support Forum and really loved it’s usefulness, yet simplicity. I asked the owner what forum it was and he said bbpress.

My question is this – is that forum an “out of the box” forum or is he using a lot of plugins. Like for instance, the main forum, when you click on a board it slide open to show sub forums. Is that a plugin?

Also, when you login it will show my personal topics in a box in the sidebar. Again, a plugin?

He also uses a Resolved/Not Resolved for his threads – a plugin?

Sorry so many questions – trying to learn before diving right in.

I want a search for searching over my forum topics from within a private group. The overall group search seems to work fairly well identifying keywords in the group descriptions, but when I drill down into the group and see 50 Forum topics, it would be nice to be able to search over those 50 Topics for a keyword “facebook” and return all the topics that have that keyword mentioned in it’s thread.

Most of my groups are private, so obviously you’d have to be a member of the group to even get to the forum page and perform a search.

Does anyone have a solution for this?

Is there a function for telling if there’s new posts. Just checking before I write one.

[Ramiuz]

So is anybody attempting to make this theme? Please do.

Adam Kayce Says in this forum post:

Apostrophe and or quotation marks cause backslash to appear.

Never mind – I got it, thanks to an old post from two years ago.

The code has changed a bit, so here’s how I fixed it:

1) open up /bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php

2) replace line 1074 with:

return stripslashes(apply_filters( ‘get_topic_title’, $topic->topic_title, $id ));

3) and line 1782:

return stripslashes(apply_filters( ‘get_post_text’, $bb_post->post_text, $bb_post->post_id ));

That did the trick for me.

{This worked for me,too. It worked on the front end and back end.}

what you want is deep integration. Follow this page – http://blog.ashfame.com/bbpress/ and you will find related articles on how you can do it, pros & cons and how to show bbPress info on WordPress side.

Similarly you can show WordPress info on bbPress side too.

I ran into a filter problem when trying to change it for just on the admin side but if you just want to change the whole language of the forum, you easily can – Install / Change bbPress to a different language

1) Yes but not really soon after the v1.2 plugin launch

2) Yes you can chain such conversions. vb4 to bbPress and then this bbPress to bbPress plugin v1.2

3) They will become better over time

4) Not sure about that. Keep backups and hit on with the process.

you are trying to have both the approaches altogether. either you can display forum inside your WordPress by deep integration or just select a theme which matches to your WordPress on a regular standalone install.

BuddyPress forums is what you will have with deep integration theme matching in terms of look

I have a WP project with a well-established vBulletin forum which I would, in a perfect world, pull into bbPress/BuddyPress to tightly integrate with WP. I am not asking for a vBulletin importer for bbPress 1.2. I know that is a beast that is probably not worth slaying at the moment for Automattic.

With this frame of reference, I have a few questions re: bbPress 1.2 (the plugin). I have done some searching on these forums and have not found answers yet. If they exist, please point me to them.

1. I assume 1.2 will cleanly upgrade from previous versions of bbPress. However, reading some of @JJJ’s posts, it looks like 1.2 may function more like a CPT plugin where everything is stored in the posts table. Is this the case? If so, will a clean migration from prior versions be possible?
2. Assuming this clean upgrades are part of 1.2, would it be safe to say that following (and improving upon) some of the more cumbersome vBulletin -> bbPress migration paths (link below) would still work?

   LINK: http://tinyurl.com/vb4-to-bbp

3. Much has been made about how the bbPress used in BuddyPress is not really inline with the core bbPress code. Given it’s apparent design direction, is it safe to say that the 1.2 and the BuddyPress forums will effectively merge and become one code base, whether or not BuddyPress is active? If not, how will they differ?
4. Are there any other glaring roadblocks to vBulletin migration that I am simply not seeing?

I am considering writing (or more likely funding the development of) a vBulletin importer script for bbPress 1.2. If I decide to go that route, I plan to give the importer back to the community. So, the goal of these questions is to help me gauge the feasibility and scope of such a project.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Doug

Right for the users who use it and best to give a good performing core for everyone’s need. Like if you don’t require something and its not in the core you gain some speed. If you need them, grab a plugin.

Although its all not that easy with bbPress right now

I reposted this as I was apparently marked as SPAM?

We’re running into issues where new posts that should appear on a new page of a specific thread are not showing up right away. It’s kind of hard to explain but I’ll try…

So a topic has say, 90 posts, where we’re displaying 45 posts / page. When post #91 gets posted, the pagination does not go from << Prev 1 2 Next >> to << Prev 1 2 3 Next >> but stays at only showing << Prev 1 2 Next >>

If you manually change the URL from /bbpress/topic/thread-name/page/2 to /bbpress/topic/thread-name/page/3 you can see the posts, but it takes awhile for that number 3 link to show up (haven’t figured out how / when it shows up, may just be after a certain amount of time or maybe after a certain amount of posts).

I know this is kind of advanced but if anyone has any ideas they’d be GREATLY appreciated.

i have installed hidden plugin but it’s really a pain in the a** to configure. + it doesn’t really do what i need.

I love bbpress but i’m very surprise there is no such function…

Such is life on the edge.

I’m aware of the login issue and will fix in the next day or two.

Thanks for keeping up with the development though. It’s great to have eyes on it.

Just made a small plugin for it.

You can download it on http://eris.nu/wordpress/bbpress.

Please note that only if the database of your blog is not the same as the forum you need the data about the database information. The prefix, url are always required.

Please try out for testing later on i will add some improvements so you can load directly data from the config of bbpress instead enter it in a form.

Later on I will add it to the WP plugin database.
