@DKB

That maybe because of your Firewall settings, etc….

I just checked the price, 75 USD? WOW

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

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.

Great job Gautam, I’ll try it

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

Somewhat of the screenshots posted here – https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/sneak-peek-at-bbpressorg-20

or use this… https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/disable-display-name/ and just have the login name.

A few months ago I had problem with reCaptcha activated on both “software” try deactivating bbpress’ one then try it after chrishajer’s link.

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…

[hpguru]

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.

Any ideas ??

If someone can help me it will be sympatic

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