No confirmed date yet – there are still IRC meetups every Wednesday. You may want to read the IRC logs on the blog:

I’d wager Matt has a calming affect when he writes more than 5 words

I am also in agreement that “it will turn out fine”, the problem with that is there is no time limit. It probably will turn out fine in the end, or eventually, but how do we, the community (sic) attempt to speed up that process?

My concern is that we’ve been through this all before Chris. Remember the “its all fine so I made a BBpress Fan Page on Facebook”? Remember the definitive instructions on how to get BBpress and WordPress to play nice together, that instead of being in the documentation was a 7 page thread with the answers on how to actually do it on page 4?

I’m not meaning to bring up the past and use it as a stick to beat the BBpress people with, I just feel we go over the same things time and time again, don’t you? And so far, we appear to be repeating the exact same mistakes.

I dunno, i’ll try and come up with something, because I’m confident that we wont have a BBpress version that integrates with wordpress out of the box this year.

You can find all versions of bbPress at the following URL, but be advised that it is strongly recommended you use the most recent versions of the software for all security reasons.

I did a fresh install of WPMU and BBPress at http://collaboratingentrepreneur.com/ and I can navigate to the “forum” and can see

Newest Topics

Most Popular Topics

Unreplied Topics

My Topics

Then it says “Sorry, there were no forum topics found.” which is right as it is new, but I cam unable to find where, when and how to add a new topic to the forum. What might I be missing? Help appreciated.

one more question:

what is the code to authorized only specified user groups?

thanks for help

The 0.9 version is available at the bottom of the download page!

It seems that latest version is not working for me because I want to integrate it with old version of WordPress.

Can I get a old version of BBPress? like in wordpress.org

[chrishajer]

This is because integration was not done properly. The cookies are not compatible between WordPress and bbPress.

Read and try this:

I have never used that particular plugin – so I can’t help you there.

I do recommend, however, what seems to be the most stable plugin for avatars:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/avatar-upload/

If you’d like to see it use before making a decision, see this post on my forum:

Hope this helps.

This has already been added in the development version: https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset/2390/trunk

[esprit]

I did need an anonymous posting in my installation of bbPress and after checking few threads I realized that would be probably worth to try do it by my own. So if anyone interested, I am releasing the alpha version of plugin + source patch (yeah its hack for testing.

You could get it on http://trac.espr.it/wiki/bbPress/AnonymousPosting – feel free to raise a ticket there if the plugin is not working or in case of any other problems but I am full time working so don’t promise any quick fixes and reaction.

Just what the plugin actually does. Any non-logged user has a opportunity to log in as anonymous user (with very restrictive permissions) through standard form. He has to pass security question which is possible define in plugin administration.

The code should be working again 1.0.2 version of bbpress.

Raize,

Is there a plugin for vBulletin that allows it to share a login with our wordpress site?

[benwduffy]

Hey,

I was trying to install bbPress, and it went smoothly through setting up the bbPress Integration plugin. After setting it up, I went to add the cookiepath to the wp-config.php file as it said. It didn’t say where to put it, so I opened it up in Notepad, added it to the end, saved it, and reuploaded it. As soon as I did that, I got:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp() in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/wp-blog-header.php on line 14

I tried removing it and reuploading the file, but it did no good. How do I get this fixed? Thanks!

Edited to add: the forums still work, but the blog gets the fatal error.

[m291]

ben l. you are my hero. its work. thank you very much…

[Ben L.]

Oh, typo. Here’s the correct one:

<?php require_once 'path/to/bb-load.php'; bb_auth( 'logged_in' ); ?>

[m291]

has nobody a proposition?

[bbrian017]

Sorry guys I see how it’s done!

Thanks tons for the fast support

Brian

[bbrian017]

ok I guess I’m at that stage now!

When I got to the forums link I’m not seeing any forums. I guess I’m missing something rather easily?

I don’t see a place to create forums. I see the following, Forum Setup, When I go to that page it says it’s successfully installed or I can re install. I guess I need to do some more reading or did I mess up some where.

I think I read something about adding forums to a group (s) Any specific documentation on that group and forums part?

[Lucian Florian]

So, nobody does not know how to do this?

Any direction would be helpful.

Feature request: I would love to see an “attachments browser” in the admin panel.

Here are the instructions on installing plugins!

Hi

Well, for a start, if you have a WordPress.com username, you must enable Akismet – it’s the best spam protection you’ll get. I also recommend ‘Human Test for bbPress’ – also good for security.

Here’s a list of the plugins I recommend: (I may miss some because I don’t use all of them, obviously) Items marked with a star are quite important, in your case.

1. Allow Images *

2. Avatar Upload *

3. bbPM (for Personal Messages)

4. bbPress Moderation Suite (not always used in some forums, but very handy to have)

5. bbPress Smilies *

6. bb Topic Icons

7. bb Topic Icons/Support Forum Connector (comes with the above plugin)

8. Burning Tags

9. The MyViews Suite

10. bbPages

11. Project Honey Pot (Spam protection, prevents spam users from registering)

12. Signatures

There are plenty more, but those are my most common ones.

Hope that helps a little.

[Sabuntu]

Can you share us how did you do that !?

[Sabuntu]

By the way I still don’t know what went wrong at the first time, but fortunately with simple work around the problem was solved

[Sabuntu]

I Think my thread will be the most funniest thread in this wonderful website

I’ve solved my problem myself

Just to make easy for new bie like me,

if you installed bbpress with integration setup for your blog and find some problems and you would like to uninstall and reinstall again follow the following steps

1- delete bb-config file

2- login to your cpanel

3- go to phpMyAdmin

4- browse your database

5- drop all bb_ tables

6- browse wp_usermeta table

7- and look for bb_capabilities and drop it down

8- now you are clean and you can go through installation process again

I’ve done perfectly and my problem was solved

you can visit my new forum now

sometimes you can solve your problem with simple knowledge

wish you all the best guys
