I used SMTP mailer for bbPress and the problem was solved.

Thanks for making bbPress.org 2.0 happen Michael !

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

The new theme is Sam’s excellent work, tweaked and implemented by Noël who’s been working on it on and off for a few weeks.

I’m sure there’s still some wonky things going on that we’ll get straightened out over the next couple days.

Okay after trying to install my BBPress for 4 hours I finally got it up and running. However I could not figure out the complete integration into my WP blog so I think I got like half of it installed. Long story short, I decided to push it one more time in the Integration section of the admin section and there is a part at the very bottom where it says your two databases might be the same and if so it’s usually _wp so I changed that setting to _wp.

Then it made me log back into my BBpress but it did not recognize my password. Now it is saying that none of the names I’m entering are recognized users. Not even “admin” is working. WTF! Does anyone know how this happened and what I can do to get logged back in as the admin? Why is there not an “send info to email” for a password/user recovery?

[Daiv Mowbray]

I have recently discovered that new users at my bbpress forum

fail to receive their welcome email with their password.

BBpress version 1.0.2 integrated with WordPress version 2.9.2

I thought it might be the New User Email Setup , http://www.epicalex.com/new-user-email-set-up/ plugin installed in my WP, but deactivating it didn’t fix the issue.

Any tips on where to start looking for a solution would be much appreciated.

Q1 – the blank page is likely a 500 Internal Server Error. If you are not displaying errors on screen, then you will need to see the php or apache error log to find out what that is.

This all started with Sam 9 months ago.

Kudos to whoever made the change … the new look for the site is a huge step forward. If, for no other reason, than to send the message that “something is happening around here”

Hi at all, I have some question:

first question:

if I put

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

define(‘WP_BB’, true);

on my wp_config.php, for use bbpress function on wordpress, I recive a blank page, why? is the same code that I put on bb-config.php with another path and file. (I can put wordpress function on bbpress, it works). wordpress is on the root and bbpress inside the bbpress folder.

second question:

i have install bbsync, on plugin page I see that there is some config to do, if I click on “It needs your config!” i’m linked on general setting, I don’t understand what I have to do for use this plugin.

third question: is neccesary wp_plugin_bbPress_Integration?

I put all key on bb-config and wp-config.

thank you

Yes, for the themes to work deep integration (include wp-load.php) needs to be used. The themes do not work unless the wordpress version is active. So both WP & bbP theme have to be active at the same time for the “preview”

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

@Daiv

Thanks! They should be up in a few days. I will announce here

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

And why is that? Do you use deep integration for creating those themes?

[gerikg]

Anyone?

[jurasiks]

new design of bbpress.org is… ugly

i need to find big glasses to read this small text?

wtf?

[Trent Adams]

Hi Chris! Finally have another project that will use bbPress pretty extensive in the works so I should be stopping by “way” more often

[gerikg]

I convert themes… wpbbpthemes.org using the deep integration.

[psycheangels]

hmm you can copy the user db from phpbb to bbpress but your website user need to reset password because phpbb use md5 hash

[chrishajer]

Wow, Trent stopped in too. Hi Trent

[chrishajer]

To make bbPress look like your WordPress site, you need to create a bbPress theme to mimic the look and functionality of your WordPress theme. Widgets are not currently part of bbPress.

What does the topic title “monetize” have to do with any of this?

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Why not just a simple .htaccess redirect? Or this: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/howto-disable-registration

For .htaccess, something like this in your bbpress folder might help:

RewriteRule ^bb-login.php http://www.arguemax.com/wordpress/wp-login.php [L,R=301]

RewriteRule ^register.php http://www.arguemax.com/wordpress/wp-login.php [L,R=301]

I installed a fresh copy of bbpress and during the installation process I was asked if I wanted to connect it to a wordpress database.

Now, when I register a new account on wordpress, it appears as a new account on bbpress.

But here is the rub. I have added a plug in on the wordpress side on the registration menu. You have to click to agree to some policy. Since this plugin does not exist on the bbpress side, if I register a new account on the bbpress side, and try to use it to log in on the Wordperss side, I get an error that says “you do not have permission to ….”

How do I make the registration I have formed on the WordPress side match the Registraion process on the BBPress side. Although the database is shared according to my tests and how I installed the latest versioin of BBPRess, the registration and login pages are not the samel

Here is the registration on the wordpress side showing my custom plugin

Here is the registration on the bbpress side.

http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h292/Athono/WordPress/arguemaxregistration.jpg

Maybe there is a way to make the bbpress such that when they click on the login link it directs the user to the login for the wordpress side (and also if they click on the registration link on the bbpress it goes to the registration on the wordpress side). How would I go about changing that? Is it html code or php code? The page http://www.arguemax.com/bbpress-1.0,2-2/bbpress/ has the login and register links the link for login goes to http://www.arguemax.com/bbpress-1.0,2-2/bbpress/bb-login.php and the link for Register goes to http://www.arguemax.com/bbpress-1.0,2-2/bbpress/register.php . How do I change that?

[Trent Adams]

Good idea. All the themes on there appear to have the spam links including the ones that I worked on. This is the whois on that domain:

http://whois.domaintools.com/bbpressthemes.net

Trent

[Daiv Mowbray]

I can confirm that themes from bbpressthemes are trying to sell Cialis.

here’s a question for the bbpress owners- do you not own the name bbpress?

or at least the logo? BBPRESSTHEMES.NET has robbed the bbpress logo.

I recall some issues with the WordPress brand in the past. Protecting bbpress may also be an issue to deal with.

aside: ashfame, great contribution, if you can get the themes posted

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

And the link to the forums in the menu bar suffers from the old breadcrumbs bug (yay for testing). It tries to link to “https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forums/” which redirects to “https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/” which obviously isn’t real.

The problem is that the link for the forums is <li><a class="current" href="forums/">Forums</a></li>

It should be <li><a class="current" href="/forums">Forums</a></li> instead
