Hello Chrishajer,

I checked php info by above mentioned method.I found no temp folder so I created a folder called “tmp” in root directory.It worked.Now I am able to upload avatars to “avarars” folder in root directory.

But picture is not displayed after uploading.It gives message “Your avatar has been uploaded.” But its not displayed instead a blank box is displayed replacing default avatar.

I checked this error in google chrome by using “inspect element” context menu..the error says: ” 403 Forbidden “

Here is the link to plugin I am using : https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/avatar-upload/#post-219

Plz help !!

Paul,

I know this may be really obvious, and apologies if it is, but PHP’s built in functions for handling json are very much release dependant. There was a large change from php5 to php5.2 as i recall.

It’s 5.36am here, so you’ll have to forgive me for the lack of links, but i’d do a little googling into that. At the end of the day you either stats a minimum PHP version, or test for the php version and do and if/else.

OK, I had found that, but that seems to be mostly options. I don’t see anything in there that actually lets me enable/disable signatures. Perhaps that’s implicitly done by activating the plugin itself?

Thanks.

It’s actually under the “Plugins” menu. It should be there in the left-hand column in v1.0.2.

In 0.9.0.6, you’ll need to look under the “Plugins” menu at the top of the page.

Hi –

I think it’s cockpit error on my part, but…I can’t follow the installation instructions. Specifically,

<i>Activate and check under “Site Management” admin submenu for “Signatures”.</i>

Where do I find this “Site Management” submenu?

Is the bbPress Signatures (0.2.0) plugin working with the newest version of bbPress?

Thanks.

I’ve just converted my PHPBB3 forum to BBpress – everything seemed ok at first, the posts have converted and I was logged in and went to the admin panel. All of a sudden I am unable to log in, cannot reset a password and I apparently ‘do not exist’.

It appears that my user list hasn’t converted either as all my posts are labelled as made by anonymous users.

What can I do?

[chrishajer]

There is a very old trac ticket regarding this as well:

https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/459

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/limiting-moderator-privilege-to-specific-forums

[chrishajer]

There is nothing like that that I know of for bbPress. You’d have to port that over to bbPress to get identical functionality.

There are a couple Adsense type plugins for bbPress, but they’re not the same.

Thanks for the update Paul, I’m up for some beta testing when your ready

[johnhiler]

There used to be a plugin that supported this:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-moderators/

But it was never updated from the version supporting bbPress 0.74…

4 topics below your topic is your answer mate

This is the plugin that i use for wp:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cd-ad-sponsor/

[iphone 5s]

It is an admanagement script.

[chrishajer]

There is not a way to do that, I don’t think. Typically, people will create a bbPress plugin that does the same thing as the WordPress plugin.

What feature are you looking for?

[chrishajer]

Avatars can be enabled in bbPress 1.0.2. Just look in the admin settings.

If you want people to be able to upload their own avatars to your server, you need a plugin:

This is really old and might not work with 1.0.2:

[chrishajer]

Can you get the phpinfo for your installation and see if there IS a tmp folder?

Put this into a file called whatever.php, then access it with your browser at http://www.example.com/bbpress/whatever.php

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

I think you’re looking for a value called upload_tmp_dir

If it’s not there someone will need to look at the plugin and see what’s actually needed.

Please post a link to the plugin you’re using too.

kevinjohngallagher – Thank you very much for your help. I understand you caution completely, however given the nature of my community I am sure that this will be appreciated.

Can you confirm that the following will only select users who are bbpress members and above, and not all users in my WordPress users table.

$bbdb->users WHERE user_status=0"

[chrishajer]

The problem with the “relevant posts” was reported already:

https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1222

There are some additional notes on that ticket.

I’m not sure where you see the extra slashes. Can you post a screenshot with them identified? I haven’t heard of that one yet.

Hi there,

After a couple of hours googeling my question stays not resolved, here is my question:

Is there a way to integrate a wordpress plugin into my BBPress forum? My forum uses the same DB as my WordPress.

Thanks in advance.

[kevinjohngallagher]

I’m afraid, to the best of my knowledge, that can’t be done with BBpress as this time.

[kevinjohngallagher]

The 2 simple solutions would be for the BBpress members to have an RSS feed reader, or you could e-mail them.

What you’re looking for is a plugin that emails every member of a BBpress forum every time a new topic is started. I doubt anyone’s build anything like that because it would just end up adding to spam (even if it wouldn’t in your particular case).

[phpbroker1982]

I need to implement the Auto Login to BBPress. I have the steps of Auto Login to WordPress and here are the steps:

require_once (‘blog/wp-blog-header.php’);

$user_login = ‘screen_name’;

$user = get_userdatabylogin($user_login);

$user_id = $user->ID;

wp_set_current_user($user_id, $user_login);

wp_set_auth_cookie($user_id);

do_action(‘wp_login’, $user_login);

Could you please help me to change this code for BBPress Login?

Thank You.

Hi

Please help me to enable avatar in forum, i use bbpress 1.0.2 without wordpress

i want users can upload or enter your avatar address in profile

thanks

I am running a small forum for a small private team.

As it is for a small team, posts are made infrequently.

In order to let people know when there is a new topic raised I would like to email ALL the forum users a notification of the new topic.

It should be noted that I am integrating bbPress with WordPress. Not all my WordPress user have access to my forum. The solution needs to ONLY notify those users who have bbPress member or higher access.

Is there an existing solution for this, or could anyone advise me on how to create one?

[kevinjohngallagher]

Step 1: open google.com

Step 2: type in ‘bbpress process translation file “.pot” ‘

Step 3: click on the first link.

Step 4: do what it says

Step 5: ???

Step 6: Profit
