This topic is resolved, I used Forum Last Poster plugin by _ck_ (https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-last-poster/)

For last topic with link I used

<a href="<?php forum_last_post_link();?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a>

Why can I paste code anymore?

[kevinjohngallagher]

Nope.

So what’s the status of this ? The site is… pretty empty, and the google code project hasn’t been touched since august …2008. Is there still any interest ?

[sajp]

I have placed the following line at the end of the bb-config.php file in my bbPress root folder:

require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/../../wp-load.php’);

I think that the path must be correct because the header and footer load correctly. I’ve replaced the contents of my bbPress header.php file in my modified theme so that it just calls the WordPress function ‘get_header()’, and then WordPress seems to take care of the rest.

If this is a really stupid way of me calling my header and footer, I guess I could just remove the reference to wp-load.php and try to set up my header differently in bbPress. I thought this way would be more efficient though!

[sajp]

OK yes, it’s something to do with that.

If I take out the deep integration line from my bb-config.php, switch back to Kakumei because my theme is now broken, the registration problem goes away.

Have I misunderstood how calling wp-load.php affects bbPress? I just wanted to be able to call my header and footer in from my WordPress template. I’m thinking maybe wp-load.php is loading a function that conflicts with bbPress’s registration functions maybe?

Thanks for you help, by the way!

[sajp]

It’s definitely doing it in both of the Kakumei themes, with Askimet (and everything else disabled). It was letting me register account previously, so it must be after I started making modifications.

I’m currently pulling in the header and footer from my WordPress theme using ‘deep integration’ (which I don’t really understand if I’m honest), but I haven’t integrated my bbPress with WordPress so the users are shared or anything like that.

To do that, I did add ‘require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/../../wp-load.php’);’ at the end of my bb-config.php file. Could that be causing a conflict of some kind? I think that’s the only core file I touched.

I realise that this is starting to sound like I’ve broken it at some point along the line

[sajp]

I’m not sure.

There is a file called error_log in my site root folder, and one in my bbPress folder. They each contain some PHP error messages, but none of them are dated for today, they are all from a couple of weeks ago.

I can’t find any other files called error_log in the site.

Marius- you have a long record of being abusive and less than cooperative here when looking for advice. I would like you to treat the volunteers here with respect and refrain from this type of commentary. If you’re unable to treat others here with respect I will ensure that your requests for help here go unanswered.

zaerl’s first suggestion was good to get all the email addresses from your bbPress installation. How you email them all is up to you and not part of the focus of this forum “Fixing it when it’s broke.”

Any comments, please feel free to email me at chrishajer AT gmail [dot] com

[sajp]

Can anyone help me with this?

I’ve been setting up my own template for my installation of bbPress (modifying a copy of Kakumei), and at some point along the way the function to register as a new user has broken. Now when you fill in the registration form and click submit, you just get a blank page. No details arrive via email, but the user does appear as registered in the back end of bbPress. I can’t work out where the error is occurring!

I’ve tried switching back to the default theme: no effect.

My only active plug in is Askimet. I tried disabling that: no effect.

I don’t think I edited any of the core files (I’ve just been working in my own template folder), so I’ve run out of ideas!

Can anyone give me any other areas I should investigate?

Thanks!

[zaerl]

First of all you are asking for help and believe it or not I gave you an SQL query that actually help you cause it export all members’ emails that you can use for sending emails.

Seconded a quick search with a search engine called google will point you to a lot of topics in which mass email has been already discussed on bbpress.org:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/mass-email-function

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/newsletter-plugin

in that topics you will find replies from _ck_, chrishajer and others that are IT experts that, believe it or not, have written the exact advice that you consider at number one of your personal 2010 list.

[zaerl]

It’s the only way to do this. Otherwise you should replace the filter manually which is also a hugly hack. If you remove the filter and then add a custom code (I tried with a plugin) this doesn’t work cause the filter must be at the same exact position (after bb_encode_bad and force_balance_tags.) Changing the code againg when the SVN update it’s not difficult.

The first thing I’ve done after my very first installation of bbPress was to chage the backtick code. I think that using such character of inline code is not a wise choice. First of all cause that character is hard to find on keyboard layouts different from USA. Seconded cause that character is widely used on several language (Perl, Ruby, PHP, MySQL, Lisp, TeX and other.) I can’t write significant portion of code without breaking the formatting.

[wood2695]

Hey drcoach. Hoping it might help you, I’ve dumped my edits into pastebin to avoid the bbPress forum’s reformatting. I’ve also added a few placement notes. http://pastebin.com/uZwUJCtA

Only 2 things that I could think of (with my limited knowledge of it all) is:

1) Is your setup a “deep integration” of WP+bbP?

2) The code that I said to add included some stuff that was already there (I guess “edit” would have been a better term). Only the “strong” code was the addition. The code I placed on pastebin includes notes on existing and unchanging lines and what & where to add. (sorry if you already understood that, I’m just trying to think of mistakes I might have made)

I hope that helps and good luck!

[Tricia1]

Thanks – worked it out by unzipping bbPress on my Mac then uploading it.

[Tricia1]

I’ve downloaded bbPress onto my Mac, put the unzipped file into a folder called ‘forum’ in my site, then uploaded the folder. What URL should I be using to find it now?

[…] Then replaced the code of .htaccess with the code in nicer-htaccess > activated plugin > activated permalinks name based option from admin panel.

But got following error: […]

Hi! It seems you did not read my installation instructions carefully:

(1) FIRST activate name based permalinks

(2) then perform automatic/manual update

As for “name not allowed” on the server, do the same: go to bbPress admin panel and activate name based permalinks. It will generate the htaccess file automatically, if folder permissions are set. If not, set them or create the file yourself (you may leave it blank) and let bbPress do the rest. THEN you may perform (2).

My Blog is http://severus.es and the forums are at http://severus.es/forums.

I am using WP2.9.2 and BBPress 1.02

[andreascreten]

Hi guys

Thanks for the kind words. We are also very happy with the implementation and there is more to come.

The hardest part in this project was migrating the 2 million forum posts from phpBB to bbPress.

Don’t hesitate to ask us any questions on how we did this.

Cheers

Andreas

Just gone through this process, and for the most part it was painless (I had to go through and remove those offending characters).

But I can’t get my head around the password situation, the documentation with the plugin seems to suggest that the users password will be converted upon login, but they can’t log in because their password has changed.

Link to plugin https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/md5-insecurity-for-bbpress/

What exactly is this plugin doing then? am I just stuck with everyone needing to reset? In which case do I need this plugin installed?

[btko]

It was giving me the “Admin” link along the top and when ever I pressed it, it would always forward me back to the forum home. But I just went to look again and now it works….

Strange (or maybe not).

I think maybe I hadn’t finished the wordpress integration completely? Seems to be working now.

Thanks

[chrishajer]

Looks like the bbPress forum footer.php is trying to load a WordPress file? For this integration, maybe you should find the file that’s being referred to (_contentfooter.php) and just hard code the path to it, rather than relying on the constant THEME_LIB, which doesn’t appear to be working.

One problem at a time.

Also, it’s just a warning, although it’s warning you something is not working. On a production site, you should not display warnings. During development, it’s good to see them, even if they’re just logged, so you can fix problems like this.

[chrishajer]

I don’t think anyone knows. I wouldn’t wait around for an answer. My advice would be to just go ahead with your forum and deal with the future when it arrives.

[chrishajer]

When you log in to your forum, as keymaster or administrator, the link for administration will be present. Until you are logged in with permissions, accessing bb-admin directly like that will just keep redirecting you to the forum home.

If you are already logged in but trying to access bb-admin, chances our the user account you are using is not the keymaster or administrator.

Did you integrate with WordPress?

Thanks for ur plugin.I tried it but unfortunately it didn’t worked for my forum.I changed the RewriteBase as follows while I was testing it on localhost as my test forum is installed at http://localhost/bbpress/

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /bbpress/

Then replaced the code of .htaccess with the code in nicer-htaccess > activated plugin > activated permalinks name based option from admin panel.

But got following error:

“Oops! This link appears to be broken.”

in Google Chrome while navigating the forum.

Secondly even I tried to test ur plugin on my server where my forum is installed at http://www.xyz.com/ so I changed RewriteBase to

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

But I could not find any .htaccess file in root folder on server.So I tried to upload it through FTP but got an error :

“The name you specified is not allowed”

coz of “.” in .htaccess name.

Please help..
