I’ve cross-posted this on the BuddyPress forum. Moderators are free to close this thread so discussion happens in one place, but I figured there should be a notice on this domain as well.

@jjj
Any thought of combining the bbpress twenty ten theme you are developing with twenty ten for buddypress that Andrea is working on? That would be ideal for me, and I assume several others, because we are planning on using both plugins.
Anyone else having a problem with New Replies not bumping their Topic to the top of the list in a Forum?
I run in the same proble as I installed bbpress prior to wordpress, so i created a plugin to handel the transaction:

hope it helps.
I’m a nub, I want 5 different bbpress install but user will only need to sign-in once. My site links to different bbpress forums, I don’t want the user to keep having to sign-up for each forums.
Use one database.
Also, what is a RSS feed?

I’ve just updated my WordPress blog from version 2.0 to 3.0.1 and subsequently upgraded BBPress from version 0.8.3 to the latest release (1.0.2?). However, now all the users of the forum are displaying as inactive on the front end despite the fact that they have a ‘member’ role when viewed through the admin panel.
I suspect this is related to the fact that the users are shared between WordPress and BBPress – in WordPress they have no role.
The problem is that there are 45000 subscribers so to change these manually will take quite some time. I think I’m also right in saying that users in WordPress with no role don’t have any meta values so I’m not sure this can be addressed by finding and replacing anything in the database.
Does anyone have any ideas? I really don’t want to have to assign these users roles by going through 30 at a time in the WordPress admin screens!
Thanks in advance for your help.

Weird, thanks 3sixty. I had recently readded the plugin and forgot to reset that. It works fine now. Originally i had set 900 as the character limit but i updated the plugin and it was restored to the default 300.

Can I assume those links are at the end of a long signature? The signature plugin has character and line limits. I suspect you’re hitting the max length and max lines limits. Go to your admin panel and change the limits to something very long.

All of the theme ideas are things that can be possible, but as a first pass to get something usable it has a child theme of twentyten. It will have it’s own theme that can be used as a parent, and I love the shortcode idea but it will be rather difficult to customize in the long run, since try would be hard coded inside the plugin and not part of a customizable theme.
I’ve just upgraded my site from using an ancient 2.0 release of WordPress to 3.0.1 and this seems to have caused havoc with the BBPress integration. By disabling plugins I seem to have reinstated the forums so they can be viewed but I can’t seem to login to the forums – I’m guessing for some reason they’re not seeing or sharing the WordPress 3.0.1 cookie.
Any suggestions? I’ve had though about updating to the latest release of BBPress but when I try and upgrade the database it seems to time out. We’ve got quite a bit of data in the DB. Some of the DB tables are huge so I guess this could be why.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

I had this problem too, well nearly.
I tried out the plugin both locally and on a hosted installation and while it worked on my hosts it didn’t show up at all locally.
So I simply opened up my permissions on the local (not displaying) version of the plugin and it started working.
Obviously it’s a bit trickier to open up your perms on a hosted site but 707 should be OK.

Rich Pedley: There won’t be loads, but I’m confident there will be a few. But more importantly there will be documentation on how to adapt existing themes. This is where child themes come in really handy.
WordPress has themes, and bbpress as a pluggin will have themes aswell?
Yes, what I think the HUGE misconception is here with Themes and bbPress (Plugin) is because BuddyPress does it differently being that they go down a Parent Theme route (but they have reasons being the way things are done, and the vast array of different templates), whereas we’re going for a Child Theme (where really it’s no different, we’re using the TwentyTen templates, and adding in what extra is needed for bbPress!)
Anyway …
ricardouk: Really hope we can “display” the forum in a wordpress page, from what i read when searching these forums a large majority wanted bbpress to have same theme as wordpress.
I seem to recall that it was Matt Mullenwegs vision of seeing a shortcode or something where you could place it wherever, and a Forum Topic or that would appear! — I’m sure he talked about it on the bbPress Blog at one stage, maybe in the comments?
…I think JJJ has said that other method of integration may be possible, but by going the theme route it does allow for better templating of the forum.
…
i’ll still use it and recommend it but isnt it a bit “strange”? from standalone to pluggin so that all the integration problems disappear…so why not integrate with wordpress theme and leave all those theme integration problems in the past? Why insisting on a thing that has plagued these forums for so long.

Im not a coder so i can´t contribute to bbpress but i’m hoping as a user that this “point” can be taken in consideration by the dev team.
I am using the BB Wysiwig Editor under BBpress plugin, what are you using?
