I’m coming to grips with bbPress.. slowly.
Is the $user->ID actually availabel for use at that point or do you need to do a
bb_get_current_user_info('ID'); ?
People cannot use IE to place ratings on plugins on the wordpress site.
For example rating the “share and follow” pluing with IE give this error page….
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/share-and-follow/?rate=5&topic_id=13964&_wpnonce=0de7c56cd6
on screen error
“Your attempt to do this has failed.
Please try again.
Back to WordPress Plugins.”
This has only been tested and not working with IE8. It will most likely exibit the same problems on every version of IE.
Via SVN in bbPress plugins part, xili new post notification plugin was updated this day (more than three hours ago) but the visitor interface is not yet updated. It seems that the rate is freezed and very low compared to wp plugins repository !
Has somebody infos ?
I must say I like it. But it does look a bit cluttered with these huge avatars.
Wow. This is a reason to log in again here (after being totally fed up by being censored and having to read on the fine bbPress as a plugin for the bloaty WP) and to say: Hello _ck_! 
The WP theme that I am using is Monochrome
what WP theme are you using?
What version of bbPress are you using?
Is it integrated with WordPress?
AND
Are you using a customized theme? If so, try the included default kakumei theme and see if the functionality works.
The first error is the important one: the software cannot write to bb-config.php. That could be because the file has the wrong permissions (should be 644 and writable by the web server) or it could be something to do with the one forward slash there in the path (right between bbpress and bb-config.php).
A workaround might be to manually edit the bb-config.php and then upload that. Then the installer won’t have to write to that file. Just open bb-config-sample.php and edit all the database values, keys, table prefix and language if you use one. Then, save the bb-config-sample.php as bb-config.php and run the web installer again. It should tell you it found a valid bb-config.php and you can continue. If not, post errors back here.
I agree, it’s better than 1.0.2 right now. There are more unresolved issues in 1.0.2 than there are in 1.1-alpha. What is now 1.1-alpha will be the next release in the 1.0 series, whether it’s called 1.0.3 or 1.1. I’d say it’s pretty safe to use. If you run across bugs, please check trac.bbpress.org to see if they’re already reported, and if not, please start a new ticket.
Hi at all, there is a way for integrate bbpress and wordpress avatar?I want to use only the bbpress avatar upload for upload the avatar but i want to post on my wordpress blog the bbpress avatar.

ok I managed to activate the plugin,
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbpresssyntax-hiliter/
by changing my_plugins to bb_plugins and the folder name to bbpress_syntax_hilite.
I checked and js and styles are being loaded in header.
Still, the code is not highlighted 
This has been done a few different ways for bbpress over the years, this plugin is the easiest to find but there are other ways:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbpresssyntax-hiliter/
Is there any plugin that can help me highlight source code on bbpress?
Any other ideas are also welcome.
Thanks for reading.
Dittos to the above. The Internet is a very emotional place at times. People should understand this.
bbPress has a lot to offer in terms of a light weight forum.
BuddyPress has come a long way. When I was trying to use it last year, it in my opinion was not workable. Now, its a streamline plug-in, that works well with WP 3 – thanks to Andy Peatling.
AfterTheDeadline also turned out super.
I think if bbPress has one dedicated resource it would be great.
It looks like (I am not sure) bbPress might go the way of BuddyPress which is a good thing.
I need some help with getting bbpress on my wordpress blog. I am totally confused and have not a clue on where to go for help. Can someone give me simplified directions on what to do?
I would like to find a BBPress expert who can help me as sometimes I have errors and cannot fix them. Please send me a private message if this is possible and explain what you offer, how much you charge, and what makes you an expert. I need help now with this problem as now it is causing members to not be able to log into the Forum sometimes and they have to go through the blog to log in.
This just started happening and nothing has changed on my site.
I tried both ways, gerikg. Still doesn’t work.
Did you upgrade the forums recently? I have posted a solution to that on my blog – http://gaut.am/2009/12/tags-not-getting-deleted-in-bbpress/
Noel, here are problems that I think are important to fix:
- no download link for plugins, version etc (major)
- in login form in header, username and password are not deleted when you click on it, so you need to manually delete them
- no subscribe to topic link (I’m now wondering could be this solved by using action topicmeta instead of hardcoding in theme since this won’t work in any theme by default)
- better aligning on post form on plugin’s pages
- better pagination on profile pages on forum
- more margin between columns on user’s favorites page
Also, gravatars could be added to posts on plugin’s page too.
I had the same problem but I didn’t know exactly what I did to fix it but try these.
1. Try to go to Tools and recount everything.
2. If that doesn’t work try this plugin: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/user-roles-table-for-bbpress/
I did set up the role map in bbPress WordPress integration during installation.
Facebook connect based on WP-facebookconnect

Yes, I wrote the “Skip Akismet” plugin last year to do that.
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/skip-akismet/
It’s cross compatible with bbPress and WordPress, however they refused to accept it into the WordPress plugin repository and told me to submit it to the core (which I didn’t bother if they are going to be like that).
Later I discovered the akismet plugin itself already has a “trusted user” filter via bb_is_trusted so my method is overly complicated, but my plugin could in theory be modified to trust users who have X number of posts or pass a certain minimum membership age.
This method however would be much cleaner:
add_filter( 'bb_is_trusted_user','more_trusted',10,2);
function more_trusted($trusted,$user_id) {
// bb_get_user here and determine if trusted, possibly cache result
return $trusted; // boolean true/false
}
Feel free to develop that, let me know if you need help.
