Hi

I’m trying to install bbpress on my website and getting no joy. I put the uncompressed bbpress folder at the root (www) folder of my website. Problem is, the bbpress installer won’t accept the database login info I enter.

Maybe I’m doing it wrong? I’m using the same database as for wordpress, as creating an additional databse cost money with my provider (ovh).

I’d appreciate any help.

I guess no one uses it like that.

So what sort of features would you need for parent communication? Who would they be communicating with?

and I don’t know what it means… I don’t code.

I’m working on it but I can’t get the admin bar to show in bbpress.

I keep getting:

Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, 'bp_core_admin_bar_css' was given in /homepages/0/00/htdocs/wpbpbbp/wordpress/wp-includes/plugin.php  on line 339

I want the same as the relevant posts plugin does but also for the forum.

If the blogpost in WP has the same tags as a forum topic i want to show the links on the blogpost with relevant forum posts.

Can this be done?

[chrishajer]

Hmm, can’t seem to find it anywhere:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/new-bbpress-theme-black-letterhead

All the themes from that site, not listed in the directory listing:

http://www.bbpressthemes.net/download/

I wonder if anyone using it will share the download?

[chrishajer]

Did you change anything recently? How long was it fine, and when did it break? Was it ever OK?

It looks like bbPress is trying to include some template file and failing to do that? Did you change themes recently?

[chrishajer]

That screenshot shows that you already modified the database table?

chrishajer – is it easy to get ‘subscribe to topic’ working with bbPress 1.02? Or is the next release expected to be soon? Thanks!

[kevinjohngallagher]

This is fairly simple to do, but you have to define exactly what you want it to do.

i.e. Are you looking for forum topics that include any of the Tags in the blog post? This means that there will be no ordering or weighting on relavancy.

This line of WP code will help you on your way too:

$tags = wp_get_post_tags($post->ID);

anyone?

Sorry, i’m confused.

This is simple how? I don’t see “topic title” written there…

Please try and be MORE cryptic and provide LESS information. That makes it so much easier for us to help you, after all, we love coming on here to help people and have to GUESS exactly what it is they want.

Topic title length

[Gautam Gupta]

Topic title length or topic post length?

[absolutex]

thanks.

Something people always seem to be asking around here… Integrating bbPress to an existing overall page design. In other words, how to create a matching bbPress theme for your site.

[arpowers]

We’d love to… anything specific you’d like covered?

There are some members totally furious at each other in my forum. I could use a plugin like this. But according to its comments, several users claims it didnt work YEARS ago. So how does it work now, with bbpress 1.02?

[chrishajer]

That page is requiring a login, so I cannot see it.

You can edit the file locally in Notepad, but after editing, you need to save the file then upload the edited file with an FTP program probably. What did you use to upload bbPress in the first place?

Don’t let the folder I put it in be misleading. I had created a folder for phpBB and then decided to go with bbPress because it was so much simplier. My website is for our homeowner’s association and I don’t expect much traffic so the bbPress was a better choice for me.

I have Windows and can copy and edit it in Notepad but then how do I get it uploaded back to the header.php? Sorry, I’m fairly new to this…. I mean I know how to upload it but will the changes take affect right then or do I need to do something in my file manager?

[chrishajer]

This plugin used to work just like that for 0.9 I believe:

Hi fellow bbPressers!

I’m wondering whether it’s possible to prevent members from posting to a certain forum.

For example, I would like only Key masters, Admins, and Moderators to be able to post in forum ID-1. So “members” wouldn’t be able to post there. The remainder of the forums would be open to everyone.

Is this possible? If so, how?

Thanks and go bbPress!
