I’m running 0.9.0.6 and I’m using _ck_’s bbpress signatures and BBcode Buttons Toolbar plugins.

Some of my users have images in their signatures… they are “top 10” charts from last.fm. The charts are loaded directly from the last.fm website. Unfortunately, the signatures load before the rest of the page is finished. So you have to wait for last.fm to load before the bbCode toolbar.

Is there a way for bbPress to load bbpress signatures last, or at least after the toolbar?

They are both the same.

The easiest way is to edit the layout of the forum to respond to the look of your blog.

thierryyyyyyy:

About the Canonical plugin story, you may want to read this: https://wordpress.org/development/2009/12/canonical-plugins/

Like I said, I don’t think it will be a standalone package as, just like other Automattic products, it will need to be a part of WordPress. Look at BuddyPress, for example.

More bbPress themes coming soon.

[johnhiler]

I was able to download it from here:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/human-test/

If that doesn’t work, you can always get the files from svn:

https://plugins-svn.bbpress.org/human-test/trunk/

Good luck!

Where can I find the Human Test plugin now that bbshowcase.org is NOT online?

Hey Chris – yah definitely… but first I wanted to warn our fellow users!

I’ve been happily using bbPress for many years, and this is the first bug where I’ve experienced significant data loss.

[republican1021]

I’ve hit yet another snag.

Apparently, I have bbpress installed on my site and integrated with WordPress. NOW HOW THE HECK DO I MAKE A FREAKIN FORUM AND PUT IT ON MY SITE??!!!!!

[chandersbs]

The theme is totally bad ass

[Darfuria]

I’m just really looking forward to the development and progression of bbPress, regardless of the direction it takes. I think one of the things I’m most keen to see is for the masses to take it under their wing in much the same way millions have with WordPress, so that we have a plethora of innovative developers providing additional functionality and solutions through these forums and their own personal websites.

[multiwp]

waow, looking great!

@DKB

John, to have that properly addressed, you should probably open a ticket at http://trac.bbpress.org

I just lost 12k posts from my forum, and wanted to report what happened here in the bbPress forum! I was able to restore the posts thank goodness, but it was a chilling experience.

Here’s the scoop: I’ve always had great success with using the “delete forum” feature before… I would choose the option to enable “moving topics from this forum into [another forum]”, and it always worked great. But recently, I suffered massive data loss while using this feature (on the 0.9.x branch).

I deleted a forum and chose to move its topics into another forum… the forum was successfully deleted, but so was every single topic in the forum! I was able to restore the data from a backup, but still I wouldn’t wish that experience on anyone.

It took a while before a friend was able to audit the source code and create a hypothesis around what had happened. The preliminary analysis indicates that the “delete forum and move topics into another forum” routine ordinarily first moves the topics, and then deletes the topics and forum. But if the “move topics” algorithm times out before it can be completed, then the topic data appears to still be deleted even though the move wasn’t successful.

In other words, even though I asked bbPress to move the topics out of the forum before deleting the forum… bbPress appeared to fail to move the topics and then actually deleted the entire forum and all the topics still in it!

WHOA… scary stuff! If this bug really does exist, it could put a lot of bbPress data at risk.

This may only be an issue on slower servers or larger forums (this bbPress install has around 600k posts)… basically it appears that the bug only pops up if the “move topics” query times out.

Two thoughts here:

1) Can any developers out there audit the “delete topic” code and report back on worst case situations: i.e. what might happen if you choose to delete a forum and move the topics, but the “move topics” query times out?

2) In the meantime, until the existence of a bug is confirmed or not… I strongly suggest that you refrain from using the “delete forum” feature! Or if you must, make sure to have a fresh backup and also to doublecheck your topics immediate afterward deleting the forum to make sure your topics are all in the new forum!!

@DKB – “Sorry, download is restricted” is an error message from the bbAttachments plugin:

https://plugins-svn.bbpress.org/bb-attachments/trunk/bb-attachments.php

Have you tried lowering the minimum role to download the original?

global $bb_attachments;

$bb_attachments=”read”; // minimum role to see list of attachments = read/participate/moderate/administrate

$bb_attachments=”read”; // minimum role to view inline reduced images = read/participate/moderate/administrate

$bb_attachments=”participate”; // minimum role to download original = read/participate/moderate/administrate

$bb_attachments=”participate”; // minimum role to upload = participate/moderate/administrate (times out with post edit time)

$bb_attachments=”moderate”; // minimum role to delete = read/participate/moderate/administrate

I love bbpress , it’s a good program—-quick and small!

I want to use the offcial forum’s theme,can I?

but I can no download it now.

who can provide it to me ?

Thank you !

[Gautam]

@DKB

That maybe because of your Firewall settings, etc….

[chandersbs]

I just checked the price, 75 USD? WOW

[chandersbs]

hey arpowers, i must say, i LOVE your themes, they really look awesome.

i’d love to use the stationpro for my own site, but first i need to get the whole wp + bb thingy working properly…

i do have a tip for you. i see many designers choose white (#fff) for the font color on a black background. i must say that that’s not really a wise choice. white font color on black background –> it kills your eyes.

im also running a site which has the black background, i choose for #bbb which is a bit less sharp and doesn’t hurt the eyes too much.

Maybe it’s me, but I have no clue what I’m supposed to put for my database title in the very first step – as in what is hte database file usually called by default and where would I find it?

I’m running wordpress 1.9.

I’ve installed the bbpress folder renamed as “forums” in my root because if I put it under /blog/forums I get a 404 and the rss list of posts from wp

I have the database host set as the default “localhost” per suggestion

I assume ‘databse user’ and ‘database password’ are not pre-existing UN & PW but the same ones used to access the admin of WP, but if they are a way of setting new UN and PW then I’d be using the same for both BB and WP.

I’m using Yahoo as my web host
