All this, while striving to be as light as possible

I liked reading that!

You guys are starting to win over this bbPress 0.9 user. See what communication can do for a community?

Once you get that settled, I’ll point out how year-long-cookies never executes, even though you have it installed. So just delete that old plugin.

So to make longer cookies when “remember me” is set, you’d have to edit the freshly-baked-cookies plugin, search for the number 1209600 and change it to 31536000 which is a year. Optionally you could set it smaller like 111600 which is 31 days.

I should really consider learning how to use subversion I’ll try that and post the result shortly.

So, here exactly What I want,

Suppose I’ve planned to run multiple discussion boards, and I’m using

http://zptest.info/ ( WordPress )

http://zptest.info/students/ [bbpress 1]

http://zptest.info/teachers/ [bbpress 2]

http://zptest.info/management/ [bbpress 3]

I’ve done:

-1: Shared User Integration ( Works )

-2: Shared Database Integration ( Works )

-3: Shared Cookies Integration (Not Works, that’s what I want)

I’ve followed all instruction from bbpress Integration tutorial

Now cookies not works, you can test it at zptest.info

user: test

pass: test

(I can send also admin’s or ftp detail, if anyone really interested)

cookies are conflicting, sometimes not logout from other boards.

Suggestion:

I’m hopping there should be a plugin, just for set cookies for multiple boards in same domain.

People just do, user integration, and database integration.

then install ( cookies plugin ), that’s all,

Come on, _ck_, you can do it,

Thanks

Oh wow. I’m an idiot.

Very sorry to put you through that – the version on bbpress.org is out of date!

It only does version 1, not version two.

I’ve just posted 0.0.4 which does version 2 (now set to default)

don’t forget to copy over the four define lines!

This is always updated faster than the copy in the plugin section.

phpinfo() tells me that PHP is Version 5.2.13

Now, pretend I am crazy and tripple check the settings at the top

LOGGED_IN_KEY

LOGGED_IN_SALT

The two keys and salts are the same. Keys I get from wp-config.php and salts from wp-admin/options.php.

take a REALLY good look at the cookie data – it changes between bbPress and WP but really only two parts should change, the expire date and the hash. So between the last | in the data

How the hash forms is still not quite clear to me, but obviously that’s where the issue lies. I notice that it’s different every time I log in (no matter from which side). I if log in/out of WP 10 times I get 10 different hashes. But maybe that’s the normal way.

Other things to note:

* I am using year long cookies plugin on the bbPress side

* bbPress has a trailing slash in these settings:

$bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://dev.example.net/';

$bb->wp_home = 'http://dev.example.net/';

whereas WP has them without the slash:

define('WP_HOME', 'http://dev.example.net');

define('WP_SITEURL', 'http://dev.example.net');

* as you can see I am doing this on a dev subdomain and not on the live site. Even though I did test it on the live site(with the main domain) too and the result was the same

* the lines you mentioned in the plugin did not match: I had that code on lines 70 and 83

* define('AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION', 2 ); should be added at the top of _freshly-baked-cookies.php, right? I did not exist there in the plugin download, so I added it before starting the tests

Thanks a lot for helping out

@_ck_ i’m running multiple bbpress instances like

example.com/bbpress1

example.com/bbpress2

example.com/bbpress100

Is your plugin will work for this situation?

Also curious for matt’s response.

Thanks

KB: “after that they are just unable to set cookies integration over multiple boards”

My cross-cookie plugin allows you to set cookies over multiple domains running bbPress and WordPress. There are a few sites using it to share a cookie over several installs.

[Ryan Hellyer]

@wtfmatt2 – Please bug off and stop ranting. Either that or articulate your responses into a respectful manner. Matt and co. are doing their best. Ranting and whining is achieving nothing more than making you look like a complete tool.

[_ck_]

If your server uses a version of PHP less than 5.1.2 there is a possibility there is a slight incompatibility with the replacement hash_hmac between WP 3 and bbPress 0.9

PHP 5.1.2 or higher, that wouldn’t be the problem.

but since other people seem to have this working, let’s be sure…

[Gautam Gupta]

When editing a reply, the “Notify me of followup posts via e-mail” text appears twice (once below the “Allowed markup” and once above.)

I think this is related to theme, I didn’t happen on my installation with Kakumei.

This means that the theme here doesn’t contain edit-form.php and is using Kakumei’s. In the patch I posted, the action (to add the checkbox) is removed in functions.php and is instead added at a custom location in Kakumei’s edit-form.php, and as functions of Kakumei aren’t loaded here, the default action isn’t removed and the checkbox is displayed twice. This doesn’t happen with post-form.php as it is present here.

[Martin Hasan]

Been there, done that. Even though I’m using the same database for wordpress/bbpress it doesn’t recognizes the new user as an admin.

[_KB_]

@ Matt Mullenweg Thanks Man for your response, I really sorry, if you did not understand my sentences, I try again to explain them,

No-1 – How did you set cookies integration b/w various wp forums?

No-2 – Did you apply the same procedure for all forums like this bbPress Integration Tutorial?

No-3- If you apply the same procedure ( link above ) for all forums then why it did not work for us, Did you apply some extra techniques to work them together? Can you plz describe them?

No-4 – Shared user integration and Share database works for us, we just need cookies integration over multiple bbpress instances.

Additional Questions:

No-5: Is hosting matters in cookies integration?

No-6: If I install multiple bbpress instances (right now), then after (in future ) WP-bbP-Plugin’s announcement can I switch from standalone to bbPress-Plugin with same plugins, database, users, content, without losing anything???

Need Your Suggestion:

I’ve prepared One wordpress with 100+ bbPress Instances, Should I launch my project? Or should I wait for Plugin?

Humble Request to others:

Its my humble request to all people who are in this topic, Please For God Sake don’t deface my topic, don’t go off topic, this topic is becoming our future, try to understand, stay focus.

A Wish for Matt:

I’m not against to any of your action. If you’ve planned to make bbpress a plugin then definitely you knows its pros and cons, SO, best of luck, and my all well wishes and We are with you!.

I’ll do my best to answer it

I’m hoping that you’ll again give me a smart response.

Thanks

Cheers

Hello

This is the first time I’m setting up WordPress and bbPress, so it could be something very obvious, but from reading the tutorial, I couldn’t figure out what to enter at Step 2 – WordPress integration:

CHECKED Add integration settings

CHECKED Add cookie integration settings

WordPress address (URL) This value is required to continue.

? http://192.168.0.8:8787/wordpress/

Blog address (URL)

? http://192.168.0.8:8787/wordpress/

WordPress “auth” cookie key

?

FYI, on the test host, I have WP installed in /var/www/wordpress/ and bbPress in /var/www/bbpress. The two applications shared the same database in MySQL, since I assume it’s easier that way and they use a different prefix when creating tables.

Considering this context, does someone know what to type above

Thank you for any help.

I originally used WordPress for my blog but now I use bbPress for my blog. I have no plans on ever installing WordPress again since bbPress acts as my blog while functioning like a forum.

If bbPress was formed into a plugin instead of a standalone script, I will continue using it and do me and my team will do our own coding/bug fixes.

[Erlend]

But you certainly are not going to get anyone who is NOT using WordPress to install WordPress just to create a forum. There are far better options out there.

You’re probably right. Yet allow me to give an example of how major plugins like bbPress and BuddyPress complement WordPress in a way that greatly adds to its appeal (i.e. grows the customer base beyond those interested in WordPress)

Much like WordPress, our project (jMonkeyEngine) is a continuation of someone else’s work. When we picked up the reins of the jmonkeyengine.com website, we were stuck with three separate content systems (SMF, DokuWiki, WordPress) and a mess of custom code. We looked at several options, like:

– Extend SMF (no doubt the heart of our community activities) into a full-scale CMS

– Tie all systems together with a solution like Atlassian’s Crowd

– Replace our custom front page with Joomla! and use JFusion to tie all four tightly together.

– Replace everything with a widely extended Joomla!

We practically tried all of those options and more in practice, either in testing environments or on our live site. Meanwhile I’d been looking at complete ‘community solutions’, like Elgg, OpenWack, JomSocial, BuddyPress…

(I definitely looked at Drupal as well, but they just didn’t seem to have anything near as simple as say JomSocial that just goes ‘boom, now you can start build your community).

Then bbPress came to BuddyPress, and I made a decision. I proposed an overhaul and we got moving:

http://www.jmonkeyengine.com/forum/index.php?topic=13934.0

The only reason we’re not spamming press-boards with ‘look at us!’ links yet is because we made the decision to move everything over at once, and that includes the risky decision of adopting the BuddyPress-Wiki plugin (every other essential has been covered by core features) to replace our DokuWiki. With D.P. Cartwright’s dedicated help we’re just about there though.

Erm, point ahoy!

So the point I’m trying to make is, we never stopped to consider WordPress as a CMS, until BuddyPress arrived as the major complement to fulfill our every need in one package, as opposed to 20+ plugins. Having used WordPress for my own portfolio page and general sandbox play I already knew how intuitive (extremely so when compared to Joomla!) and easy to extend it is. When the last remaining piece of the puzzle arrived, the choice was a no-brainer. I imagine many will come to the same realization with bbPress.

I know I did not prove you wrong; I just figured people might find this brief case study interesting.

Hello.

I have installed Profanity Filter 0.2.1 plugin on bbpress 1.0.2. I have downloaded this list of vulgar words http://support.discusware.com/center/resources/tips/cusswords.html

Now, after I have activated it, I discovered that all the posts that have been filtered also lost their content. I tried deactivating the plugin, thinking that the previously censored content (unlawfully censored to be honest), would return to its previous state, but nothing of the kind happened.

My forum is http://pastorbob.limewebs.com/

Any ideas on how I could get my content back?

Thank you.

Regards,

Bob

Yes, with the bbPress Attachments plugin:

Hi,

is it possible to upload file on bbpress?

thanks

[ZKuJoe]

B.

Full answer here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/my-questions-for-matt-again-since-he-closed-my-other-topic

[ZKuJoe]

I don’t get it. bbPress is open source and under the GNU GPL license. If the current teams stops developing it I’m sure somebody may pick it up. I for one won’t stop using it even if me or my co-workers have to code our own bug fixes.

[Martin Hasan]

Here goes nothing…

The other day after upgrading to WordPress 3 I decided to create a new user, delete de old “admin” user and set the right permissions to the new user.

Now the problem is that I’ve integrated wordpress and bbpress. When I login to the forum, it doesn’t recognize the new user as admin. Therefore I can’t access the bbpress admin section.

When I go to forum/bb-admin/ it just takes me back to the forum’s index.

Is there a way to change this?

[wtfmatt3]

I’ve narrowed down my questions to just one.

I figured Matt might find it easier to answer this way.

a) YES

b) NO

C’mon Matt, you can do it!

[wtfmatt3]

@JJJ hell no you won’t. Just ask Joomla. And Mambo. And…

This is the end of bbpress. This is what happens when you have a company of less than 20 people, all juvenile suck-ups, making long-term decisions. They just don’t get it.

If man-child Matt won’t publicly admit it, then it must be true. You should go hang out with Mark Zuckerberg you guys are perfect for each other.
