Rich Pedley: [note to mods: above post is spam]

mr_pelle: […] mods? Do we have mods for real, here? [/sarcasm] -_-“

Rich Pedley: nope, but I live in hope. Though JJJ is one

We do have 1 moderator that I know of, and that’s _ck_ although we don’t see her round here very often anymore (I don’t think she likes the idea behind the plugin?!)

I’d be happy to help in removing SPAM and such, you’ll always have the odd one get through Akismet, and you’ll get some of the legit posts getting caught! — But that’s one thing I’ve not seen for bbPress, a ”Report Spam” button?

[Rich Pedley]

as well as deactivating plugins, try using the default twenty ten theme.

If it still doesn’t work, the only thing I can suggest is a memory increase.

[DeysonOrtiz]

Nothing.

I also de-activated all of the plug-ins to be sure, but the bbpress plugin does not show up.

I am stumped.

[Rich Pedley]

try using this link:

[DeysonOrtiz]

Hello again

Well I downloaded the zip file from here the third try with no success:

https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/branches/plugin#bbp-themes/bbp-default

I unzipped the branches folder, I then renamed the ‘plugin’ folder to ‘bbpress’ and then uploaded the ‘bbpress’ folder to the wp-content/plugins folder and still nothing shows up in the plug-in admin

Here is the link to the test site, where I want to add the bbpress forum to:

http://motion-master-templates.com/test/

I had buddypress running before, but I deactivated all the associated buddpress plug-ins prior to uploading bbpress.

I would really like to start playing with bbpress

Thank you.

For the info of anyone chancing up on this.

wrt The plugin that justin mentions above. After integrating bbpress and wp 3.0.1, i had my existing members showing up in bbpress as inactive. Not: inactive (no role)

I changed the plugin as follows: – added the else line

function inactive_to_member() {



$userID = bb_get_current_user_info( 'id' );

$user_obj = new BP_User( $userID );

$user = bb_get_user( bb_get_user_id( $userID ) );

if(empty($user->capabilities)) {

$user_obj->set_role('member');

}

else if (is_array($user->capabilities) and ($user->capabilities['inactive'])) $user_obj->set_role('member');

}

add_action ('bb_head', 'inactive_to_member', 5, 0);

@DeysonOrtiz – Sounds like you’re missing some files or something didn’t get moved/downloaded completely.

I’d say give it another shot and try again.

[Mark McWilliams]

DeysonOrtiz: Yes Mark I see the bbpress.php file and every other file […]

Well if thats the case, then I see no reason why it shouldn’t show up in WordPress at all, ready for you to activate and start playing about with! Very odd…!

[DeysonOrtiz]

Yes Mark I see the bbpress.php file and every other file that I downloaded from here :

https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/branches/plugin.

Thank you

I’m not a programmer – just someone with a website who wanted to add an ‘easy’ to install forum. After my help from Yahoo, who hosts my site, it is up and running but it’s so boring looking. I can’t find the other templates that bbpress is supposed to offer. Does anyone know where they are? Can you customize with your site’s logo and URL? Thanks.

I need to develope a plugin that, at the end, post email notification to no anonymous post in bbpress trunk version (like subscribe to comment in wordpress).

John James Jacoby: For people running into issues on Windows local installs, svn up and test the most recent trunk. The solution isn’t very pretty but appears to work on all server configs.

I love this (ugly) solution, thanks for taking the time to do what you did, and if what Ryan Boren did in a particular change in WordPress helped too then grand! With this, you can tell Automattic made a good call adding you to the team (congratulations again!)

Rich Pedley: Works OK for me, I never thought of just changing that portion (doh).

You always think about it after you see the change made, I’m sure I’d been playing about with that at one stage but had nothing like the final ”solution” shows … least we’ve got JJJ to help us!

DeysonOrtiz: I dropped the ‘plugin’ folder into the wp-content/plugins folder and then changed the folder named ‘plugin’ to bbpress.

By rights it should show up fine in either folder. So inside the /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/ directory do you see a bbpress.php file? Can you just double check all the files needed to run the bbPress Plugin have been uploaded!

[Rich Pedley]

what is in the bbpress directory?

[DeysonOrtiz]

Hello,

It seems the plug-in does not show up in my Plugins-admin page.

I dropped the ‘plugin’ folder into the wp-content/plugins folder and then changed the folder named ‘plugin’ to bbpress.

Am I missing something

I am really excited to see this work!

Thank you.

Hi all.

Just set up a BBPress and WPMU integration. Finally got access to bb-admin files after a bit of tinkering around with the MySQL tables. I had to set a bb_capabilities value and set it Administrator, rather than the Keymaster I made etc. etc. I mention this only as it could be of relevance, I doubt it, but there we are!

I can now login, set up forums, admin them, people can register on the WP site, login at the forums, it’s all going great. Or so I thought.

When I go to the bb-admin pages, everytime, this hasn’t just started occuring, I get the following error messages:

Warning: Division by zero in /home/unibbco/public_html/bbpress/bb-includes/functions.bb-statistics.php on line 214

Warning: Division by zero in /home/unibbco/public_html/bbpress/bb-includes/functions.bb-statistics.php on line 194

Warning: Division by zero in /home/unibbco/public_html/bbpress/bb-includes/functions.bb-statistics.php on line 174

Warning: Division by zero in /home/unibbco/public_html/bbpress/bb-includes/functions.bb-statistics.php on line 244

Any idea on why this is and how I can fix it?

The forums have 3 users, no posts, only one forum.

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

We need to create a basic import plugin. — This I have done, it’s experimental and I’d like some more eyes on the code before calling it “done”

I’ve looked for it but haven’t found it. I guess it hasn’t been published yet?

I ask for help in making a single-use script to import topics and posts into existing BBPress installation.

I need to import a legacy Q&A (hundreds of them) stored in a flat file. I need to handle fields missing in the source, which contains: Q poster, Q poster’s e-mail (optional), Q post date, Q content, A content. I want to import those and fill the missing fields with arbitrary values.

I chose to use API to do the task, which is a right choice, what was pointed above. I converted the source file manually and imported it into a multi-dimensional array. Then I want to use functions bb_insert_topic and bb_insert_post in a simple loop:

$topic_id = bb_insert_topic(array(...));

bb_insert_post(array('topic_id' => $topic_id, ...);

The problem is: I can create topics/posts only for current user. Any poster_ parameters passed to bb_insert_ are ignored. In other words, I can’t create anonymous topics/posts with poster credits I specify. I guess I’m missing a setting or constant?

The PHP script is located in the root folder of BBPress. I do require('./bb-load.php'); and log in to my keymaster user in the browser. All of $bbdb, $bb and $bb_current_user are populated (I used FirePHP to debug).

What am I missing?

[Rich Pedley]

Works OK for me, I never thought of just changing that portion (doh).

Thanks.

[Rich Pedley]

That doesn’t work though – then you’d have to put the forum in that subsite as well.

So I’ll raise a ticker for the roles.

[John James Jacoby]

That’s in the plans but feel free to open a trac ticket. I’d like to work within the existing WordPress roles and caps if possible, but also understand it might be nice to have dedicated forum admins and moderators.

My immediate thought would be to enable WordPress multisite and use a dedicated site with dedicated ‘staff’ for the forums, but I also understand that’s only one particular use-case and isn’t optimal for everyone.
