Me too!
Yes http://forum.buddypress-it.it/ looks great…great job. How can we install that theme?
I am looking at different forums to use and I like the idea of bbpress because all of my web development is within wordpress. I like the idea of being able to integrate the forum with wordpress. I installed simple:press just to take a look at it and I like how the forum is on the wordpress platform because it uses use my existing wordpress theme with all of my widgets and site navigation already there. Now that I hear bbpress is going to do the same, I am leaning toward going with bbpress instead of simple:press since I am guessing long term that is where the most development and compatibility will be. For example, bbpress appears to integrate with buddyppress and mingle but simple:press does not.
What I would like to know is, if I do decide to go with bbpress, how should I set bbpress up now before it becomes a plugin to make the transition better when it does become a plugin?
Should I set it up to use my wordpress database or give bbpress its own database? I am not sure if the separate database will be an option after it is a plugin.
Or is there a way to set it up bbpress now as a plugin?
Is it simple to import simple:press data to bbpress? If so I may just use simple:press for now until bbpress becomes a plugin and gets any bugs straightened out and then import the forum to bbpress.
I would also like to hear any comments about my reasoning here.
Topic: Timezone support
Is there a way to get post dates in the support forums (or any bbPress forum) to show the time in my time zone?
Your Theme at http://forum.buddypress-it.it/ looks great! Are you finished with the development?
(I don’t want to push, but maybe you’ve forgotten it…
)
Thank you for your comments.
I am in the need for a light-weight discussion board, preferably something that isn’t tied to WordPress. And for this I think bbPress suits perfectly. But I don’t want to invest time in something that isn’t going nowhere.
@cNc: well, I believe my plugin actually is pretty easy to use: you just have to make it able to write on your config file and then activate it. I don’t know how it could be more simple!
Regarding making it better, sure I will, because it is going to be used in the forum of the company I’m currently having internship in!
It would be just great to test it in different bbPress installation, that’s why I uploaded it in the repository: I’m waiting for your feedbacks!
Yes it may have been a little different if you did the integration with older releases. The best thing to do is to upgrade WordPress to the latest version, then bbPress, and then do the integration. Rather than integrate the scripts and then upgrade them.
This is now been released as a beta and includes a lot of improvements.

You can see another example of it in action on the GreekBerry forum (case study). It would be great to see an example of it in use with bbPress too
Topic: Delete via XML-RPC
I’ve been trying to delete a post via the XML-RPC API and just haven’t had any luck. I’m communicating fine with the API, sending and receiving works as expected, and the user has correct permissions. Everything else (as far as getting posts and making new posts) is also worked as expected. However, I’m always getting a return value of ‘0’ from the API, even though the post isn’t already deleted. I’m trying to accomplish this from Buddypress using bbPress Live. Any ideas on how to do this?
My request and response:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<methodCall>
<methodName>bb.deletePost</methodName>
<params>
<param><value><array><data>
<value><string>forumadmin</string></value>
<value><string>******</string></value>
<value><struct>
<member><name>post_id</name><value><int>59</int></value></member>

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<methodResponse>
<params>
<param>
<value>
<int>0</int>
</value>

</params>
</methodResponse>Here’s the code I added to the bbPress_Live class
function delete_post( $post_id )
{
global $current_user;
if ( !$delete = $this->fetch->query( 'bb.deletePost', array( $post_id ), $current_user->user_login ) ) {
return false;
}
$key = md5( 'post_' . $post_id );
$this->cache_delete( $key );
return true;
}Hi

bbPress isn’t going anywhere. If you are worried about the lack of initiative in the direction of development, be assured that it will be also be there in bbPress closing down.
They’ve decided to convert bbPress into a WordPress plugin. But that’s been pending for months now. And when that does happen you’ll sitll have bbPress around. Don’t worry… use bbPress. It’s not got some premium themes and plugins too. The community is working on it behind the scenes.
Hi everyone,
I’ve used bbPress in the past. And now I’ve thought about using it again. But what about all this talk about bbPress dying and closing down I keep seeing everywhere? Are there any truth in these rumors? Should I stay away from bbPress and look for alternatives such as BuddyPress instead?
Also, the last time I used bbPress I had lots of problems with spambots signing up. Have there been made any improvements in this area? Are there any new plugins or such that can stop these spam bots better than before?
I am thankful for any advice or comments!
