it’s a great theme, luv it !
Hi,
I’ve got a site I created with html. I’d like to add a bulletin board to it without redesigning the site using WordPress. How do I do this?
Thanks,
Brettha
Sorry that should have been directed at citizenkeith:
“_ck_’s bbpress signatures and BBcode Buttons Toolbar plugins”
I just wanted to look at those two plugins and didn’t really feel like searching for them.
I said I don’t have another one. I am using _ck_’s one. As far as I know, there is no other signature component out there for bbPress.
Here is a list of the tables that are created in 1.0. Here I changed the table prefix from bb_ to bbpress_:
http://chrishajer.com/bbpress/bbpress-tables.png
Those are the tables that need to be dropped to start the installation over. You don’t need to delete any files at all.
No, you delete all the database tables that have the prefix of bb_. You’re not deleting the files in the filesystem at all. Database tables, not files. The installer checks for those tables, and if they’re present, it suggests you upgrade instead of install. If you remove the tables, bbPress will continue with the installer.
Michael, do you have links to both plugins you’re using so I can download them and take a look?
So I delete all files that start with bb_ ?
Am I just uninstalling bbpress?
I don’t know of one – and I don’t think there is another one at all.
@all:
Are there any other signature plugins aside from the one _ck_ created?
Am curious how others might handle signatures…
Not sure if you are using this or not (I don’t think so because ‘Sticky’ shows) but try the bb-topic icon plugin (https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-topic-icons/)
With the new version you can select your own icons!
Hi,
We have setup WPMU 2.8.6 integrating with bbpress 1.0.2.
Integration is working 100% for newly created users, logging in via the main site and browsing to the forums – the user is able to post, etc.
However, some users have been added via the back-end and we used to have a plugin installed that disabled activation. If you login with one of these users credentials on the main site and browse over to the forums you are unable to post (it just reloads the main forums page when you click on reply or post); if you login directly on the forums with the user details he is able to post.
Any comments on how we might be able to rectify the issue would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance
Thanks Ben. That certainly helps.
I’m hoping there might be another way to truly load bbpress signatures last, so I won’t mark this “resolved” yet.
I followed gerikg’s instructions & all seems well, except, when I log into bbPress, then go to WPMU it appears as if I’m logged in. Until I try to admin the site, then & have to log in again. Seems to be that a cookie is not being set.
Thanks! I an now following him on twitter and will keep my ears open for any news. In the meantime, back to bbPress. 
Bozo is used to describe spammers.
Voices is the number of individual members of the forum that have posted on a thread.
A view is a list of topics that fit into a category, like topics with no replies and topics with no tags.
“Halting installation!” is used when an error is encountered and is (as far as I know) the last thing that shows up in the log.
The REQUEST_URI and PATH_INFO don’t look like they should be translated, but they are used in a debug message.
XAMPP on local machine, here is one line of several that appear at top of bbpress login page after installation was apparently completed successfully.
Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in C:xampphtdocsbbpressbbpressbb-settings.php on line 186
and when I try to log in a bunch more error messages. XAMPP works fine with wordpress by the way.
Thanks, Roger
Thanks, good to know. Issue is that I’m using Buddypress so I can’t access the BBpress admin to activate BBpress-specific plugins (so far as I know). So I think I need to go into php and edit it directly.
Instead of loading zlib via .htaccess, you should use Apache’s built-in module mod_deflate because it is better for server’s performance. By using code below, you will compress all textual content from your site (html, css, javascript, rss). Simply remove type you don’t want to compress from list and it won’t compress after that. Note that you shouldn’t add any more types because other file types can’t be compressed this way.
Just copy/paste this code in your .htaccess file in root of web site. You can use this on ANY kind of website, no matter if it is powered by bbPress or not. Just watch-out that some script you use doesn’t already compress some type, because it will than double compress which will be worse than using uncompressed type.
Also note that on some bad configured servers this can make additional load on servers so be careful (this applies to zlib comrpession too).
<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/plain text/xml text/css application/javascript application/x-javascript application/x-httpd-php application/rss+xml application/atom_xml
</IfModule>
You can test your site before and after with tools like WebPagetest (just click on images on result’s page for detailed information) and Web Page Analyzer. And share your results here.
what do you think about hosting ga.js locally and keeping it up to date?
You shouldn’t store popular JavaScript files (like from Google Analytics, AdSense, StatCounter etc) on your server because they are probably in visitors’ cache so he will not even load that files while visiting your site.
This is because most sites nowadays use Google Analytics and when man without that file in cache visits page that use it, that file is saved in it’s cache for seven days (because Google gives information to browser in file’s HTTP headers) and it is not loaded again until it expires from cache.
Here are some questions related to translation of bbPress.
Is there any other word for “bozo” that is more common, because I don’t know how to translate this? In 0.9 branch I left this untranslated, but now I want to do complete translation.
What are “voices”? This is introduced in 1.0 branch.
What is “View” in this strings: %1$s » View: %2$s and <abbr title="Really Simple Syndication">RSS</abbr> feed for this view?
There is sting “Halting installation!” used in error log on install/upgrade. Does install/upgrade stop at that moment or what happens (I’m not sure how to translate it)?
In file bb-includes/functions.bb-core.php, there are strings REQUEST_URI and PATH_INFO. Should we translate this or leave it (because it is mistakenly wrapped in __() function?
Thanks in advance
You set WordPress Administrator to bbPress Administrator instead of bbPress Key Master.
Run this on your database: DELETE FROM bb_meta WHERE meta_key='wp_table_prefix'
That should allow you to log in with your bbPress account and fix the setting.
Hello
I installed bbPress ok and had admin rights under a user named admin. Then I finished integrating with my wordpress site. It logged me out as the admin and now when I access with my WordPress admin account I cannot see any settings to change.
When I try and log in with the bbPress admin it says there is no admin user. Basically I have no way of changing settings.
Please could someone help with my problems?
Thanks
I would recommend dropping the bb_ tables from the database, and try installing again at the URL you provided. That error occurs when there are old bb_ database tables in the database. If you changed the bb_ table prefix, then just drop the tables with that prefix. Then complete the installation again.
The url is http://forum.easyushistory.com/bb-admin/install.php
The intended domain is forum.easyushistory.com
