You can get a zipped version here:

https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset/2401/trunk?old_path=%2F&format=zip

Or you can check out the latest via subversion:

svn co http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress/trunk/ .

Either of those two methods will get you the latest trunk (development) version.

[kajrietberg]

I downloaded the latest stable version right here. And I didn’t do anything about it, only changed the name of the folder bbPress to forum.

Do you mean themes and plugins for WordPress or bbPress?

[hydroweb]

Where do we find latest dev version for those of us on localhosts?

[chrishajer]

I don’t recommend editing core bbPress files. This is fixed in the latest development version already as well.

[hydroweb]

For running on localhost

Somewhere around line 25 of bb-load.php there should be a line that starts with error_reporting(. Change it to error_reporting(E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE | E_USER_ERROR | E_USER_WARNING);

Okay – here is my resolution. It only took me a weekend to figure this out.

Media Temple’s default DB CHARSET / COLLATE settings are ‘latin1’ and ‘latin1_swedish_ci’ for WHATEVER reason…

The bbPress db client connection is using UTF8 – which is why I kept getting the database error.

I used this command (because the knowledge base article in MT is incorrect) to update my CHARSET and COLLATE settings for my DB:

ALTER DATABASE db12345_wp CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;

That allowed me to finish the upgrade.php script.

Hope this helps someone in the future.

When I want to install bbPress I get this message:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘<‘ in …../……/……../public_html/forum/bb-includes/backpress/class.wp-error.php on line 205

So I can’t installe bbPress. What can I do about it?

[johnhiler]

Alex’s SVN links here:

https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wordpress-mobile-edition/trunk/wp-mobile.php

Lines 17 and 18 mention a GPL license:

17 // Released under the GPL license

18 // http://www.opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license.php

So you should definitely be able to release this plugin as a derivative work. Good thing too, b/c I’d love to use it!

[Navin]

@BerryReview I’d love to use that plugin if available, I don’t mind editing the codes at all.

I tested your page with this website http://iphonetester.com/ and it’s looking good.

Good work, man!

Just installed WP 2.92 and Buddypress 1.2.1 on my dedicated Linux host @ 1and1.com. I literally:

installed

upgraded to 2.92

updated permalinks to non-default settings

downloaded/activated BuddyPress

Activated BuddyPress Theme/Uploaded Header

Initiated Forums (bbpress) Installation (went smoothly)

When I visit either http://www.kdjn.net/forums or http://www.kdjn.net/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums , I get a blank page and nothing else. No errors, no administration page, no login prompt.. just the white page. Can anyone throw me a bone?

Thanks in advance-

Eric

[Shannonx]

Wow quick response! My man… THANK YOU THANK YOU AND THANK YOU AGAIN!

It works flawless!! Dude you’re the shizznit, there’s nothing more I can say. Hahah.

Thanks again

[chrishajer]

Sounds like you’re using WAMP or XAMPP with version 5.3.1 PHP? Those are not really errors but warnings.

errored when installed

If you can’t downgrade PHP, you can modify your PHP error reporting:

Hey you guys,

So I have a fresh install of BBpress with WordPress. This is my first time using BBpress…

So I have a few errors on top and I don’t really know how to get rid of ’em. Can somebody please

help me out? Here’s the link: http://www.urbanstart.nl/forum/

Hi Ashfame, great tutorial but before I go ahead and install bbPress using your method, is it really necessary to change the DB prefixes?

Thanks,

Gene

[Transmutator]

Well, aren’t I an idiot. bbpress is not a real plugin to WordPress! I saw that someone had used bbpress on their WordPress site and jumped right on it. I guess I will go back to the ever so slow VastHTML forum plugin.

[Transmutator]

Ok. I have seen a multitude of folks with successful installations of bbpress but I can’t seem to … I have the zip file of bbpress 1.0.2 and upload it in the add new plugins area. When I click to “activate” it I get this error message “The plugin does not have a valid header.”

so, what do I need to do?

[Gautam]

Do you have access to your database? If yes, then create a new user which you want to be the admin. Then open your database through phpMyAdmin and open the database used in your bbPress install. A lot of tables would load in the left, click on the box like thing in the left of bb_users (or TABLEPREFIXusers), see the user you just created and note the ID in the left of it. Next, click the box in the left of bb_usermeta and then in the above part of right, click the SQL tab. In the textbox that appears, paste this:

UPDATE bb_usermeta

SET meta_value = ‘a:1:{s:9:”keymaster”;b:1;}’

WHERE user_id = ‘%%USERID%%’ AND meta_key = ‘bb_capabilities’`

Don’t forget to replace %%USERID%% with the id you noted down before.

Recently I’ve installed the the mass delete plugin.. but by mistake I delete my admin account.

Now there is no email or user name of my admin.. And I cannot go to my admin panel.

How can i recover my admin account?

I don’t want to reinstall bbpress

Thanks

[lawrence_krubner]

Chris, you say that WP Questions “doesn’t benefit the bbPress project monetarily”. But WP Questions could raise money for bbPress if bbPress signed up to receive donations from us:

http://www.wpquestions.com/support_open_source/create

To be good citizens of the open source communities we belong to, we offer to donate 25% of our profits to developers whenever we get questions marked with the custom tags related to their projects (plugins, themes, software). All you need do is register. Put down ‘bbPress’ as the keyword for this project, and then 25% of any profit we make from a question about bbPress would go back to the bbPress organization.

Day two of attempted upgrade.

I combed through the boards, without much luck in terms of issue resolution (gripe!). If I figure out the remedy to my issue, I will be sure to post it here (so we can benefit from my stupid mistakes).

I re-read the upgrade directions, and thought I would give it a fourth try. This time, I restored my 0.9 install and files, logged into the Admin control panel – everything okay.

I then moved all the new 1.0.2 directories over & replaced the 0.9 files (since I knew my backup worked). I verified my bb-config file was still good (shouldn’t have been touched).

I then ran the ‘upgrade.php’ script forum/bb-admin/upgrade.php

and got the message that my DB needed upgrading – so I select ‘upgrade DB’ and then receive:

ERROR: Could not establish a database connection

So – if I’m able to login to my bbpress 0.9 install and have full access to the DB, and I’m using the same bb-config values (same file!) – why would I not be able to establish a DB connection?

BTW – in another post, someone mentioned clearing browser cache helping…which I did. Nothing positive…

Any ideas out there?

[bforeste]

Anyway you can post your resolution to this issue? I’m going through a similar thing:

Upgrade Errors: It looks like your database is out-of-date.

thanks

[bforeste]

citizenkeith: did you ever resolve your issue?

I’m having similar (DB connection…DB upgrade requests) and I’m on MT GS, trying to upgrade from 0.9 to 1.0.2

Upgrade Errors: It looks like your database is out-of-date.

Just looking for some extra information before I wipe out the 1.0 install dir and try again clean from the top.

It’s possible to remove forums & page in name based permalinks?

Can anyone make that WP plugin a BBP plugin?
