With respect, If you think I’ve sucked up to anyone – especially Matt or Automattic people – you’ve really not read alot of my posts. I’ve been very forward, blunt and vocal about Matt dropping the ball on this, not only on this site but on others.
That doesn’t mean I’m going to agree with you, or anyone else, when you insulting someone’s person. Thats not sucking up, thats just being decent. Everyone’s entitled to their opinion.
Matt has messed up. But he’s human, and this is a collaborative effort. You can’t put the blame for everything that goes wrong on one person. Or you can, but in the end you’re only going to alienate yourself from people who have the same goal.
That’s the whole point people, we all built the code and all the plugins
Did “WE”?
You know Matt wrote bbPress right?
You know Matt’s emplyees then fixes bbpress (albeit in an adhoc manner) until bbpress 0.8.3, right?
You know Matt then paid for a ‘full time’ developer for bbPress (Sam Bauers) for a year, right?
Matt is directly/indirectly responsible for more code than anyone else on this project.
Yes, he’s causing more issues than he’s solving right now, and yeah it’s annoying; but insulting his person by saying he doesn’t have Brains or Heart is just childish. And bluntly, unhelpful.
Notice how this site’s Alexa rate is a steady 12k… the entire world is waiting on this mates!
Lets be honest, the entire world isn’t waiting for this. I’ve spent a large chunk of time in Africa volunteering, building schools and basic irrigation. “The World” doesn’t care. We care, but its’ just forum software. Lets look at this in perspective.
Look, if you want Matt/AutoMattic/Developers/bbPress-community/Santa to come together or move forward in a particular direction thats cool. But making grandeous statements like this with no hard facts or suggestions doesn’t help at all. Half of what you said in your second post is so wrong it’s unreal. Honestly, if you want change and you want to help, cool. But don’t just spout facts and conclusions that you’ve made up.
we are on the same team yo!
I… I’m not sure what to say to that.
Can I change teams? Or can we vote people off?
Ah BackPress.
Like Marrying my high school sweetheart it was a wonderful idea at the time, that somehow comes back to bite me on the behind every damned day ever since ;-]
(here’s hoping she doesn’t google me!!)
Mr Pelle,
I truly believe that bbPress is a grand little product, it’s so flexible and extendable that it’s potential in unbridaled. if your forum doesn’t requite alot of moderation, then I can’t think of anything better than bbPress.
It’s just hampered by no management and no communication, which I feel only exasperate/exagerate it’s problems. And this comes from the the moany SoB who points them out
bbpress 1.0.3/1.1 (cos we’ve no-one in charge to make the decision to release anything) contains a great number of bug fixes that have plagued bbPress for too long. All small, all annoying and great to get them out of the road. Even if you don’t need the 2 new** features, it will be a good thing when this comes out and you upgrade.
I’m all for pointing out mistakes, and keepingon top of this to geet things released, and maybe get some answers out of someone at some time (Seriously, 6 months per blog post – crazy from the company behind WordPress blogging platform) and then we’ll take stock and see what happens then.
** they’re not new, we’d had them for years as plugins. God himself only knows why we couldn’t have a bug fix release instead, then work on new features. But that requires stakeholders to be consulted and decisions to be made…
Gareth Gates earned a bit over of leway in the Gallagher household for Jordan, but Stuart McCall… y’all are going to hell of keeping him alive/busy for a while longer
Anyway, what you want is to make sure that your bbPress config file has the same info as teh wordpress config file for each of these below
in WordPress
define( 'DB_NAME', 'database_name' );
/** MySQL database username */
define( ‘DB_USER’, ‘user_name’ );
/** MySQL database password */
define( ‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘password’ );
/** MySQL hostname */
define( ‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’ );
/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define( ‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’ );
/** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */
define( ‘DB_COLLATE’, ” );
in bbPress
define( 'BBDB_NAME', 'database_name' );
/** MySQL database username */
define( ‘BBDB_USER’, ‘user_name’ );
/** MySQL database password */
define( ‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘password’ );
/** MySQL hostname */
define( ‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’ );
/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define( ‘BBDB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’ );
/** The Database Collate type. Don’t change this if in doubt. */
define( ‘BBDB_COLLATE’, ” );
If they are the same, then I’m a bit clueless right now
A Bradford man eh? I was down there on thursday.
Anyway, welcome to bbPress.
What you want to do here is look at your WordPress config file (wp-config.php) that is already on your website (i am presuming here that you’re wanting to add a forum for appertunity.com – or at least on the same server).
You will see what it has for each of the details that you filled in for the corresponding bb-config.php file. that should give you some insight as to what the database settings should be
Topic: 6 months without a blog post
Just a quick reminder, that we’ve now reached 6 months without a blog post on bbPress (13th Jan to 13th Jun).
And we haven’t been able to type code on the forum for the last 3 weeks, and 30% of the pages in the new theme haven’t actually been ported over; and basic links in the header and footer are no longer working.
Topic: WordPress 3.0 integration
The other big question in my mind is this.
Is bbPress going to live or morph into something else?
With the release of WP 3.0 just around the corner (I am already running WP3 RC2), what’s going to happen with bbPress then?
I am at a critical stage with my site’s development and I have to make a decision to jump one way or the other; partly because I just don’t have the time or money to develop two themes for one site.
Do I install bbPress on WP as a forum and use BuddyPress to access it? Or is something going to change and make the combination and integration of all the plugins for each and of WP3/bbPress/BuddyPress all too much of a royal pain in the petutie?
I wish someone could give me some clarity on the direction bbPress and BudyPress are going.
Someone. Anyone?
