I like the look on the main page – list of topics organized. After click through topic with multi reply, thread can look messy.

Hi Everybody

I just installed bbpress and i try to figure out how it works.

I use gravatar for my blog and i have installed bb avatars plugin in order to get gravatar on my posts (like on this forum). But nothing shows up!

I have a registered address to gravatar of course.

Any help would be appreciated.

example of my post http://www.pokerbastards.com/forum/topic.php?id=3

thank you for your help

regards

Since i noticed the new bbpress wasnt going to be “theme integration friendly” just like the previous versions, i started to look for other forum plugins, simple:press was the next step but i find it quite slow loading.

Today while browsing an “drupal7 vs joomla 1.6” article i found a forum plugin for wordpress:

The Mingle Forum Plugin

http://cartpauj.com/projects/mingle-forum-plugin/

no need to ftp files, you can install it from within wordpress plugin page, no need for extra themes, it can use whatever theme wordpress uses, international localization/languages etc etc

@bbpress devs: in my opinion you’re overcomplicating something that should be “easy as 1,2,3” in bbpress (theme integration), you’re “integrating” not the opposite, lots and lots of people voiced their problems with complicated integrations or deep integration, why insist on having separate thmes for something that “uses” wordpress that itself already uses a theme. Make it simple.

REQUIREMENTS:

PHP 5.x

WordPress 3.0 or newer

FEATURES:

* NEW! SEO Friendly URLs

* NEW! Forum sitemap (../wp-content/plugins/mingle-forum/sitemap.php)

* NEW! Adsense areas

* Media embedding into forum posts (like Youtube, Flickr, Photobucket…)

* WordPress 3.0 ready!

* Categories with sub-forums

* User Groups

* User Levels (EX: Newbie, Beginner, Pro…)

* Private Messages – Forum integrates seamlessly with my Cartpauj PM Plugin (Requires Cartpauj PM vs. 1.0.09 or greater)

* Moderators

* Skins

* Captcha

* BB Code

* Smilies

* Custom Forum Search

* Guest posts (See Mingle Forum Guest Info add-on by wpweaver)

* Hot/Very Hot topics

* Sticky (Pinned) Topics

* Move, Edit, Remove and Close topics

* Forum RSS Feeds

* Email notifications on replies to topics

* Recent posts widget (or PHP shortcode for your theme)

* Integrates nicely with most themes (It’s tough to make it work for all themes so some skin modifications may be required for your site)

* Allow/Dis-allow other users to view your profile from the Forum

* Supports different languages

* Integrates with the Mingle Plugin (by Blair Williams) NOTE: The “Mingle” plugin is NOT required for forum to work

o Avatars

o Profile’s (Works with/without Pretty Profile URLs enabled in Mingle settings)

o Activity in the forum shows up as activity in mingle (Helps increase discussion in both your forums and your SN)

o Deleted forum topics will also delete the corresponding Mingle board post

I wanted to use this plugin:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-latest-discussion/

but it’s no longer supported, and I wasn’t able to get it to work when I did install it.

Hi,

Is there a widget out there which allows me to show the latest topics in the forums in the sidebar of my WordPress installation?

I would like people who visit the front page of my site to easily see the newest activity on the forums without needing to go to the forum page.

Yeah I have the same problem before and all I did to fix the issue is to clear cache and cookies on my internet browser. I was surprised at first because I am not sure it solved the issue. I thought it was something from the server’s end that is causing the issue.

I know, that site is not part of this one, therefore there is no control over it. hence the warnings.

[andyfox1]

hope others have had this problem and can help me. All I did was install bbpress and then used the integration wizard on setup. Everything seemed to work ok until I tried to login to WP to put a link to my forum.

Now when I try to login it won’t say the password is wrong it will just refresh the page.

I think it might have something to do with the auth fields i added a word to or maybe something I don’t know of.

Any help?

Yes, I had the same problem which andrejcarter described. I don’t recall the version, but I noticed it last Wednesday.

It had me looking all over my install to see what was wrong… I’ll never again forget to just delete all my plugins and themes to get things back to normal. I’ve read about the solution and never before gave it another thought.

[chenxumin]

Can I upload pictures with bbpress? My blog there should be many visitors who’d like upload pics on a forum like a blog yaxia-online.com. thanks for your answer.

[Chuck Mac]

Just opened a trac ticket(#1458). It looks to me like the plugin breaks xmlrpc.

[Rich Pedley]

K, will raise a trac ticket then

[Andre]

@Rich Pedley – Yes. I think I lost the ability to login at 2814. /wp-admin redirects me to /login, which gives me an error saying the page cannot be found.

[Rich Pedley]

Is anyone else having issues with logins when bbPress is activated?

I get that totally. I’m not pressuring them. I’m a developer myself, and I fully understand it takes time. What I’m really looking for is to just understand where things are right now, without that coming across as pressure.

I get that WordPress integration isn’t so advanced right now, and that’s fine. I’d be looking to make it part of my WordPress site at http://www.esecuredata.com, but that doesn’t mean it has to share the same users or be a plugin. I could just link to it as a totally separate process with separate users, although I’d probably write a bit of custom integration code as we maintain our own user database.

I would love to see a few sites running BBPress so I can see what’s possible, and see what themes or styles are available right now. I find this forum extremely fast and easy to use, and am interested if it is running a widely available style/skin. Heck, I don’t even know if you call them styles or skins or themes or what, here. lol.

ok, now i’ve got that under control (i think) because the plugin needed to be activated again… but now get ANOTHER error on the page

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare bbpress_integration_get_common_parts() (previously declared in /home/content/06/7296506/html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress-integration/bbpress-integration.php:23) in /home/content/06/7296506/html/forum/bb-plugins/bbpress-integration/bbpress-integration.php on line 61

i’m even more confused than before… anyone know what this is?
