Thanks! Before I point my browser to the above location, am I suppose to change the bb-config-sample.php to bb-config.php??

When uploading into /forum on your server, don’t load the bbpress-1.0.2/ directory… upload the contents of that directory (you’ll see the directories bb-admin, bb-cache, bb-images, etc… plus bb-config.php, bb-edit.php, etc).

Then point your browser to:

I’m still getting error messages with bb standalone. I can’t figure out what i’m doing wrong… http://www.pharmacistcareeroptions.com/forum

Thanks! I tried downloading that version first and couldn’t get it to work, so I downloaded wordpress (which ironically works fine) but can’t get bbpress to function. I guess I’ll start from scratch and try again.

Great to hear that it’s almost ready for an official status update! Will it then be possible to use the auto updater, instead of having to download the zip and uploading it via FTP?

I’ve been running it on my site and I really like how it’s turning out. Keep up the good work.

[John James Jacoby]

No. The only version that is publicly available for download (using the red tab in the upper right hand corner) is a standalone version of bbPress that does not require WordPress to work.

The version that is currently in development is a plugin for WordPress, which will require WordPress first.

I like the forum function of wordpress, but am not interested in blogs from wordpress. Do I have to install wordpress in order for bbpress to work?

A few people have expressed concerns about the growing number of template files included with the bbp-twentyten theme. Not counting CSS/JS/Images, we’re up to 32 individual template files to handle forums, topics, replies, loops, forms, users, and pagination. These concerns are totally valid, but mostly unavoidable.

The goal for bbp-twentyten is for it to be as simple to understand as possible without tons of proprietary functions or complex logic to figure out. To do that, we’ve split some of the files into ‘parts’ that focus on specific functionalities. Some of this doesn’t make a whole lot of sense right now because of lack of documentation, and it uses functions that are new to WordPress as of 3.0, but I’m confident it’s the best way to go.

When I think back to my beginning days of learning WordPress, a lot of what I did was butcher Kubrick and make my own frankentheme. I’m trying to keep that in mind here. Since the first place people naturally make changes is on the front end of their site, this theme should make that really easy to do.

We also have an empty folder for a theme named ‘bbp-default’ which will more than likely be a full-featured theme that flexes a bit more bbPress muscle.

I think when bbPress has more eyes on the code and more developers start integrating forum files into their themes, we’ll see some really neat things start to happen.

@jjj Thanks for the update. I think/agree focusing on compatibility with 3.1 is the best way to go.

@jjj, @gautam and all the contributing developers, Thank You.

[Paweł Patyk]

@John James Jacoby: WOW! Thanks

[John James Jacoby]

@PaulMike – Not long now thanks to the efforts of GautamGupta. We’re going to be using it on a few community sites soon, so probably expect some kind of alpha in the next few weeks. There will be an official blog post to announce it when it’s time.

[Paweł Patyk]

How long we’ll be waiting for the new version bbPress?

[Rich Pedley]

echoes my thoughts

[John James Jacoby]

My rule regarding trac vs forums, is that the forums are traditionally for support and confirmation of an issue occuring, and the trac is for when bugs appear that can be duplicated and/or you have a suggested code change. You can even drop enhancement requests in the trac if you have a really neat idea, even better if you have a patch to match it.

Core developers live and breathe by the trac. If it isn’t in there, it doesn’t exist. It’s our diary of development, and without it our lives would be much more difficult. The trac is less social, and more developer speak. The forums tend to be a little more relaxed.

With WordPress 3.1 almost in its third release candidate, we can expect it to ship really, really soon. That said, it makes sense to drop 3.0 support and focus on 3.1. I’ve made sure we’ve stayed compatible with 3.0 this entire time, but it’s time to focus on the version of WP that the bbPress plugin will see the most use on.

Thanks to everyone that’s been testing on 3.0 installations. If you *really* want this to be 3.0 compatible, definitely open trac tickets and contribute patches to keep that support alive.

@ Gautum

Thanks, but these do not seem to work on the frontpage of the forum?

[3sixty]

I’m having trouble passing a variable ‘tag’ to forum.php using $_GET, maybe because permalinks are enabled?

For example, when I do this URL:

http://mysite.com/bbpress/forum.php?id=999&tag=444

It just redirects to forum 999 and ignores the tag value, so I get:

http://mysite.com/bbpress/forum-name/

I’m using Nicer Permalinks plugins if that matters.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

[Andre]

I have the plugin (2785) installed on 3.04 and 3.1 RC2. Both installations are Multisite, use Month & Name permalinks, and the bbPress Twenty Ten theme. When I click on a forum name in 3.04 it takes me to my front page, but 3.1 RC2 responds as expected. I’ve tried deactivating and reactivating the plugin and theme with the same outcome, but switching permalinks to the default fixed the problem.

[Rich Pedley]

If you’re sure it’s a bug post on Trac.

If you have weird things happening straight after upgrading, I’d suggest posting here first. Because upgrades aren’t smooth yet.

@johnjamesjacoby

Is it better to post here first and then if confirm, then post to trac?

@Cashman

Go to zip archive at bottom of page

@Rich-Pedley

I feel the same since I’m not a developer

[Chris Cash]

Is there a link to download for testing?

[handuraw]

With only the basic intergration, I can get my bbPress install running smoothly. WP logins and BB logins seems to work with each other fine. Yes, everything else works pretty well as expected. However, I can’t seem to have the deep integration work for me.

I will really appreciate if I could get the deep integration work since I badly need it to get the purpose of my site.
