Nothing exciting but here’s what’s pending and will be available soon (hopefully).

All were designed for 0.9 but in theory should work under 1.x

Rename User

changes user name (user_login) across standalone or integrated (or multiple) bbPress / WordPress installs (that share a common user table)

Blocklist

blocks posts based on a list of words or IP addresses (like the WordPress feature) by immediately marking them as spam

Spam Notification

notifies admin when a post is marked as spam by akismet

Browser Timer

improve your forums by learning how long it really takes for users to see your bbPress pages

The others are just utilitarian but Browser Timer is the one I am most interested in seeing people try. It’s like asking all your visitors how fast your website is.

It compliments bb-Benchmark but instead of breaking down page rendering time on your server, you’ll instead be able to see if your pages and server are truly up to speed for your visitors around the world. It tells you EXACTLY how long it took them to get the whole page, including images, javascript, etc. on just about any browser.

mr_pelle,

Where in your template did you place that code?

The first block is actually my bbPress header (you have to put it inside some php tags, of course), while I use the second in my WordPress header and footer when I have to load different content (css, icons, code).

Comparing anything on the bbPress website to the WordPress website is only going to lead to heartache and pain my friend.

As for the bbPress website not syncing after 22 hours, thats nothing new either.

IMO, give it closer to 48, and if its still not happening we’ll try and drag Michael away from WP3.0 release to help us again

[kevinjohngallagher]

This sadly isn’t a huge shock.

Given that 4 versions of WordPress will have been released since the last version of bbPress, it was bound to happen at some stage.

I’ll attempt to report it into the WPdev channel and see what the change is, and maybe we can come up with a bbPress plugin to help make any changes meccessary.

If whatever change in WordPress that is affecting us is here to stay (basically: if it’s not a bug), then it will effectively signal the end of complete WordPress integration. Thats not me being all doom and gloom, its the harsh reality that the two systems will then be out of sync.

That said… I’ve long been a believer in forcing people to both login and register via WordPress over bbPress on an integrated system. At least then you’re only working with 1 system setting cookies/registering etc. And right now there are far more WordPress plugins for control and customization.

[Michel – xiligroup dev]

22 hours after, the bbPress repository server is not updated. The webside is not conform to the svn side.

Users are not informed as in WP plugins repository of update of bbPress plugins…

What happen ?

Best regards

[chrishajer]

bbPress is not a plugin for WordPress. It should not be installed in wp-content/plugins, like a WordPress plugin.

You probably want to put it here:

/home/content/88/6235388/html/bbpress/

Then you can access it at the URL of your website, plus bbpress, like

http://www.example.com/bbpress

to start the installation.

Rename the bbpress folder to something you want to be visible online. Here it is called forums, but you can call it forum or discussion or community.

[tstadmin34]

I uploaded the bbpress zip to my site and then went to my plugins & it wasn’t there so i tried to upload it again but it said it says “Destination folder already exists. /home/content/88/6235388/html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/” any suggestions on what to do?

[Rootside]

Same issue here.

bbPress 1.0.2 seems to play nice with WordPress 3.0 RC1, except for this problem.

I actually managed to get one account registered, but I can’t reproduce the situation. I do remember that I didn’t get to see the register-success screen, but I received the confirmation email with the password. All subsequent attempts failed though, as did numerous previous attempts.

Being able to do it once (out of 20 attempts or so) would point to a problem with cookies or being previously logged in, but the problem occured in 4 different browsers, 2 of which had never been used to access this site.

So, bbPress acts like I’m trying to register without providing an email address. Any thoughts?

[snieves]

mr_pelle,

Where in your template did you place that code?

[gerikg]

Who is your hosting company?

I have one more thing you can do.

[johnhiler]

I’ve had this problem when downloading plugins while signed out… if I sign it, I’ve noticed it tends to work?

The issue happens more often than it usually would for me, b/c the plugins install uses 0.8.3 and isn’t signin integrated with the main forum (which uses the latest version).

At least, I think that signing in will fix the downloads! It could just be random chance that ever time I’ve signed in before, the downloads have started working again!

[snieves]

Pixopoint is broken, Ryan is trying to fix the plugin.

Where can I email you. I have to pay someone to get this going.

[kevinjohngallagher]

Try installing php 5.2 and not 5.3

bbpress causes errors in 5.3, though they’re warnings rather than errors.

Check if you still get errors with php5.2.9

[kevinjohngallagher]

Totally agree Z.

I always feel really bad when turning people away.

Folks like roaming who make the effort to try out BbPress and are polite when asking or help, it would be good if there was a way to give them the info before hand.

[kasper777ny]

Hey whats up gerikg

Ive done everything step by step that you wrote about. I even reinstalled and started over from scratch. yet it still seems the cookies are not working. wordpress and bbpress are linked because bbpress actually lets my wordpress logins work… but no matter what i do, i still cant get keep myself logged in when going back & forth from wordpress to forum.

is this a common issue that just is not working yet?

wordpress mu 1.9.2

bbpress 1.0.2

[1BadApple]

BTW, IS there a way to change PW’s by end users in this package aka User Control Panel or Profile?

?????

[1BadApple]

I have installed bbpress on my XAMPP Windows XP test server (which is hosting about 6 WordPress 2.92 test sites OK)

My environment:

Apache/2.2.14 (Win32) DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.2.14 OpenSSL/0.9.8l mod_autoindex_color PHP/5.3.1

During the actual install I got a series of PHP errors.

The Installation appears to have worked as when I use phpMyAdmin, the database I set up for bbress is there, and the tables are populated – and if I check bb1_users my ‘key master’ user is there as imput (whatever a keymaster is) other than ‘admin’.

The BBPress is ‘there’, but when I try to logon I get a cascade of PHP failures.

I have tried in several browsers.

URL: http://bravo.newnetenterprises.com/bbpress/

It looks like the call in Line 186 is the culprit, but I am not a PHP expert.

[1BadApple]

I had to create a new account to post this:

DL’ed code a few days ago. Signed up earlier this week. Doh! Forgot PW

Put OK username in PW reset field, GOT e-mail

Tried link in 2 browsers – no va (no go)

bbPress Support Forums » Log in

Password Reset

You are not allowed to change your password.

OK, what’s up?

[Francesco Bigiarini]

Maybe we should change “bbPress is forum software with a twist from the creators of WordPress.” with “bbPress is standalone forum software with a twist from the creators of WordPress.”

And no, I’m not joking.

Kevin, thank you. Interesting way to ask that question…

I am looking at the backend and at the files and I am pretty sure it is bbpress. Otherwise how would the default template from bbpress run on the site?

Why would the link in the footer bring me to this site if it was the buddypress version?

“Unfiltered MMA is proudly powered by bbPress.”

Thats interesting.

Maybe all this time I have had the wrong software going… Still interesting that BBPress is able to get the user info from wordpress but just not able to activate the members.

[tcarr184]

gerikg,

I did as you requested and here is another thing that has me confused. The users are not in the list. If I search for users it will not find them. I can scroll through the list and find them but that is a pain with so many users.

Also if I try to sort by role it will tell me “No matching users were found!”

After going through the list you are correct they are not active. Does this meant that I have to activate every user individually? I would like it so that people that register on either bbpress or wordpress become members by clicking the link in an email and I don’t have to do them all manually.

Thanks,

[kevinjohngallagher]

Ah right, there’s the issue.

If you use BudsyPress in any way we can’t help.

Their versionof bbpress, even though they kept the name, is very different from

this one. This one, doesn’t work with BuddyPress at all.

That’s why we ask, sorry, you’ll have to take this issue to the BuddyPress forum.

Good luck

[tcarr184]

kevin, I am using Buddypress, WordPressMU, and BBPress. I wish I could take credit for getting it working but I cannot I had someone else do it.

They all interact and I think that buddypress is the thing that bridges wpmu and bbpress but don’t quote me on that.

[kevinjohngallagher]

Finally, Yes this is integrated with WordPressMU

bbPress doesn’t officially work with WordPressMU.

I’m surprised and impressed you’ve got it working nicely

Quick question, are you sure you’re using bbPress and not in any way shape or form using BuddyPress? I knwo that sounds like a daft Question, but you’d be amazed!!!
