ah ok i see paul…..that actually sounds VERY cool. But would you be able to pull the whole post or how does it work.
I am looking forward to see what you come up with.
@bingsterloot – you are quite correct, no need to reinvent the wheel. Your plugin looks good! For someone synchronizing with their own WordPress, your plugin looks like the perfect solution.
That said, the “Rss Poster Bot” is still something I will pursue as it will allow me to draw on news/posts from a variety of other sources so long as I have a feed. Think of it this way:
- a post is made to your favourite news web site
- the “Rss Poster Bot” pulls the feed and sees a new item
- the bot now makes a post to your bbPress forum, starting a topic
- local users are able discuss that news item
I’ll give it a shot in my spare time and see how it turns out.
No need to re invent the wheel here guys. Just DL
The user who reported that problem found this fix:
Fixed! You won’t believe what the problem was… The plugin was uploaded to “bbplugins” instead of “myplugins”! Apparently it makes a huge difference

Is it possible that your plugins are in /bb-templates/ instead of in /my-templates/ ?
Hey Paul thanks for the reply. That’s exciting news, and I think it would be a very useful feature for bbPress
As long as the individual posts from wp show up as properly formatted threads, I don’t think theres much more that would be required. Anndd I actually have a small budget set aside for this, so if you shoot me an email me maybe we can work something out and get this done? My email is simon.raize[at]gmail.com
Cheers bro!
I am planning to create a plugin to do this – I was going to call it my “RSS Posting bot” – with options to post new items to either a single thread or start a new thread for each item, and config to say who (which bbPress user) the bot should post as. Other than general design, however, I’ve not really got too far. Should I take it that you would like such a plugin created? If so, any other features you’d want?
You’ve done an awesome job with this! 
This is what I LOVE about bbPress – you can do almost anything you like with it. I almost confused your forum for phpBB. Very nice
Looking forward to the next log post. Thanks Matt.
Hallo everybody,
It’s still in development but I am ready with the layout and it works very well.

The site has been made without deep integration. I have just used the tutorial of _CK_
http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/heres-how-to-show-bbpress-info-inside-wordpress-without-full-integration
What do you think about it?
i was forced to switch to a linux server because my windows server was incompatable, i master in php,asp.net,vb.net and a ton of others but i couldn’t do this! where can i report this bug
Michael R, it’s acting normally today. Maybe alexandanthony made a change and will post back what was causing the problem.

it’s a great idea but you miss something: there are a lot of duplicate IDs and users
agl666 I’m no whiz but i would export both databases and merge them into an sql file, then dump back into your wpmu install. This will be a tricky operation, but unless someone else has a better idea I see no other way to do it.
Just to follow up, what I did was use ssh to export my bbpress users from the db, and my wp users from the db, merge the 2, and bring them back into the wp db. Then turned on integration, and it works.
This took a long time and was a little hairy, but it works nicely now.
Thank you guys so much for your help!~
i switched to a linux server, kinda fixed the issue
I can’t actually see where the problem is – not that I can find a problem. Just tested your forum, and it seems to work okay.
function wp_redirect($location, $status = 302) {
global $is_IIS;
$location = apply_filters(‘wp_redirect’, $location, $status);
$status = apply_filters(‘wp_redirect_status’, $status, $location);
if ( !$location ) // allows the wp_redirect filter to cancel a redirect
return false;
$location = wp_sanitize_redirect($location);
if ( $is_IIS ) {
header(“Refresh: 0;url=$location”);
} else {
if ( php_sapi_name() != ‘cgi-fcgi’ )
status_header($status); // This causes problems on IIS and some FastCGI setups
header(“Location: $location”);
}
}
in file functions.bb-pluggable.php in bb-includes
Could you post the code so we can have a look?
i found the code thats doing it but i cant take it out

I recently had a problem with my tag cloud, which I have not resolved. I landed up having to revert to the default tag cloud.
Now that I’ve done this, the tags look too close to eachother. So some tags look as if they are one, when they are actually two.
My idea is to separate them with bullets (•) of the same size. Once again, I don’t wanna go messing around with the core unless I know what I’m doing.
Any way to do this?
Peace, Michael
Hi!
I have a forum running on bbPress and a WordPress MU, which I installed later. Both have users, some of them is present in both bases.
So, we have two bases with some duplicate IDs and users. How can I integrate bbPress users into a WPMU database with less price?
Thanks
