Citizenkeith: does it work on your side? I’d like to try this soon.

I have a WP blog that I am adding BBPress to, it loads correctly I have it integrated with WP. When I try to add a custom theme to my-templates, it loads but when I look at the source code the file path for the style sheet, for the custom theme is going to bb-templates not my-templates.

I have checked the permissions for both my-templates and bb-templates and it is 755.

This is the source code:

<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”http://www.troubledteenblog.com/forum/bb-templates/Crystal/style.css&#8221; type=”text/css” />

<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”http://www.troubledteenblog.com/forum/bb-templates/Crystal/layout.css&#8221; type=”text/css” />

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://www.troubledteenblog.com/forum/bb-templates/Crystal/js/tabber.js”></script&gt;

I even put the style sheet in the bb-templates/Crystal and it still does not work.

Help would really be appreciated.

Hello all,

I have fixed the bb Attachments plugin by _ck_ to be compatible with bbPress 1.0. There are many changes in it like changing the deprecated function names in bbPress 1.0, fixing the issue of plugin not creating database table on activation, etc.

You can download it here – http://gaut.am/uploads/bb-attachments.zip

So far we’ve released three forum themes to match our WP themes.

If you haven’t seen them they are: StationProForum, WhiteHouseProForum, & iBlogProForum

We are considering developing a free theme for BBpress, so here’s the question…

what would a great free forum theme for BBpress look like (based on what we’ve done so far)?

Keep in mind there must be a ‘pro’ version of whatever we do to support this type of development…

You’re welcome. Happy new year with bbPress.

I deleted and re-created a subdomain and it worked; I got the bbpress installer

Thanks guys

[republican1021]

I just created a subdomain in the bbpress folder, I went to the url and I got this:

Forbidden

You don’t have permission to access /cgi-bin/ on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

[republican1021]

Yes, I want my forum at mysite.com/forum

When I enter that in, I get the HTTP 404

When I integrate bbpress with wordpress, all users in bbpress became anonimus. How can I fix this?

[timskii]

I’m clearly not awake yet (the email did arrive with Ben L.’s update), but:

It looks like it sends out an email regardless of how many minutes have elapsed since the last email.

This is going to get a few forums marked as spammers, because the sheer volume of almost-identical emails sent out could be huge. And imagine subscribing to a big forum topic, only to wake up the next morning to discover 20 emails telling you the topic had been updated. It doesn’t seem to scale well for very long and/or frequently updated topics.

Perhaps wait until the user does something on the forums before sending anything other then the first email? But BBPress doesn’t seem to record any actions against the user.

Added: A very crude test could only send out an email if the user’s last_posted time fell in between the time of this post and the previous post. It’s a very approx measure of activity, neither relating directly to the subscribed topic, nor reflecting a visit to only read. And would need some explanation (“you won’t be updated again until you post on the forums”). I already don’t like that as a solution, but it would put a cap the spamming, while still being somewhat useful as a means of getting the author back to the forum.

Second random thought: Since this function is already looking like something that might need to be turned off, perhaps it should be sitting in bb-plugins?

I have done a good few wordpress/bbpress cookie/log in integrations at this stage.

The easiest way I find to get it to work as expected is place the following in my bb-config.php

define('BB_AUTH_KEY',        'YOUR_AUTH_KEY');

define('BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY', 'YOUR_SECURE_AUTH_KEY');

define('BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY',   'YOUR_LOGGED_IN_KEY');

define('BB_NONCE_KEY',       'YOUR_NONCE_KEY');

define('COOKIEHASH', md5('Domain Name'));

define('BB_COOKIEHASH', md5('Domain Name'));

$cookiehash = md5('Domain Name');

define('BB_HASH', md5('Domain Name'));

and the following in your wp-config.php

define('AUTH_KEY',        'YOUR_AUTH_KEY');

define('SECURE_AUTH_KEY', 'YOUR_SECURE_AUTH_KEY');

define('LOGGED_IN_KEY',   'YOUR_LOGGED_IN_KEY');

define('NONCE_KEY',       'YOUR_NONCE_KEY');

define('COOKIEHASH', md5('Domain Name'));

Replace the KEY values with those generated here: https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/

Also i’m not sure which of the bbPress cookie bits is needed, I presume it’s only one of them.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I’m trying to use an external database to connect users in bbpress…

1. The user fill in the form to connect.

2. The form check login + password in other database

3. If login/pass are good I check in bbpress to know if login exists :

if exists : connect

if doesn’t exist : create account + connect

Any ideas ??

If someone can help me it will be sympatic

thx.

ps : sorry for my bad english

When you install your bbPress forums, it asks you what would the username for the administrator.

[Gautam]

There should be apply_filter on the subject and message of the mail here – https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/trunk/bb-includes/functions.bb-posts.php?rev=2388#L407

And also to the Subscribe and Unscribe from topic here – https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/trunk/bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php?rev=2387#L3406

+ do_actions can be added

Raising ticket…

[chrishajer]

So far, I think this is the best advice:

Hi,

So far from browsing the forums, there is a somewhat minor issue regarding WordPress and bbPress when it comes to shared cookies and logins. Here is what happens:

WordPress Login = WordPress Dashboard

bbPress Login = WordPress Dashboard

Wordpress Login != bbPress Dashboard <– Problem

bbPress Login = bbPress Dashboard

So basically whenever I login via WordPress (there is a main site login form in the header), I can access the forums and it even shows I am logged in however when I click “Admin”, I am redirected to the forum index.

Other forum posts which didn’t have a solution (in my case atleast):

http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/cant-access-admin-dashboard

http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forumbb-admin-redirects-me-to-forum

http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forumsbb-admin-just-redirects-me-to-forums

http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/admin-link-redirects-to-front-page

http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/admin-link-doesnt-take-me-to-dashboard

Things I’ve tried:

Going directly to the mysite.com/forums/bb-admin/index.php

Checked all hash keys and other wp/bb-config.php stuff

Updated to the latest WordPress and bbPress

Deactivated all plugins (I only had Akismet and reCAPTCHA bbPress anyway)

Clearing cache (Firefox)

Trying in another browser (Internet Explorer)

Does anyone have a clear cut solution? Most people are happy with just using bbPress to get to the admin panel but it would be nice if it worked.

[thierryyyyyyy]

In the current version of bbPress, anyone can change the display_name.

I really think this is a stupid “feature”, anyone can make a joke (good or bad) taking the name of “admin” or anyonelse. That a primitive type of spoofing.

Before all my forum member discover this “feature”, I would love to forbid it.

I could easily say that displayed name is the login, but then, I can’t change the display name for the admin.

Which is stupid : “admin” is the default login for the administrator, but I don’t know any admin whose name is “admin” …

I searched on how could I disable that myself “nicely”: no plugin, this is not in my theme (a bad solution would have been to suppress the form input).

Someone has another idea ?

[chrishajer]

Because the integration is not correct.
