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.

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.

Might be worth checking out this plugin for ideas and/or code!

Hi.

I made integration BBpress and WordPress:

when I login in WordPress, automatically I logout in bbpress.

Why?

[nivosh]

Hello.

I have installed bbpress site map generator from: http://boakes.org/software/

My blog is in: http://www.emetaheret.org.il/blog

and My bbpress forum is in: http://www.emetaheret.org.il/forum

The blog sitemap is created using Google XML Sitemaps from: http://www.arnebrachhold.de/redir/sitemap-home/

Now, The sitemap plugin of the forum is erasing the one created by the blog plugin.

I have changed the variable for the sitemap code as follows:

// the full path the the file that will be written – write access

// is required so set up your user /group privilages correctly or

// remember to “chmod 777 $sitemap_file” before runtime.

$sitemap_file =”http://www.emetaheret.org.il/forum/sitemap.xml&#8221;;

but the file still get written inside: http://www.emetaheret.org.il and replaces the one created by the blog plugin.

I hope this makes sense.

Maybe, if there is no solution, you know about a good way for making good sitemap for my forum without interfering with the blog?

sorry for my English and

Thank you

Hello,

We use bbPress as our forum on woothemes.com and users sometimes have a hard time finding their support query when they come back to the forum. I know you can click on your user profile and see it there, but most new users don’t know that.

Is there any code that we can use to add a list of the last 5 posts created by the user and place it on the forum index page?

This is how it looks now: http://is.gd/5GOQm

I’d like to add it either at the top above “Latest Topics”

[Ben L.]

It was deprecated in 5.3.

Matt fixed it here.

[chrishajer]

Everyone defines basic in a different way. That’s the problem with adding more things into the core by default. I agree that finding plugins that work has been a problem, but that’s less of a problem with the fact that bbPress is minimal and more with a problem of the way the project has been run, and the amount of resources it’s gotten.

[chrishajer]

That would be “the nuclear option” I think!

[orbitkiller]

Hi,

i experienced exactly the same errors. except that i cannot even enter the admin area when logging in the following error appears:

Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /Users/orbitkiller/Sites/bbpress/bb-settings.php on line 187

I tried to add “error_reporting(0);” to “bb-settings.php” without success.

As already mentionned before, xampp may produce this errors, as i am on xampp too, but using the newest version (xampp, php, etc) should be the best thing to do, or am i wrong.

Any advices on this?

[rudy3107]

i enabled this plugin in MU blog(2.8.6) and bbpress 1.0.2

but i get this ERROR

Glad to hear that everything works. Happy new year for You too.

[Riwatec]

Hey thanks for your help, now it’s working.

I only needed to create the folder my-languages and add the de.mo file.

Very nice!

Happy new Year to you!

[hpguru]

You need create this folder manually.

[Riwatec]

So I don’t have the folder my-plugins, I only see bb-plugins

[hpguru]

Please add folder my-languages where is my-plugins etc. and put de.mo in my-languages if you use newest bbP. Then configurate bb-config.php.

[Riwatec]

Thanks for your answer, of course I did this! But it doesn’t work.

[hpguru]

So

change:

define(‘BBLANG’, ”);

to de:

define(‘BBLANG’, ‘de’);

If you language file is de.mo

[hpguru]

Open bb-config.php and add to language section de

Hi!

Happy new year from Finland.

I found a topic to you: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/phpbb3-gt-bbpress-converter-beta-release

[Riwatec]

Hey,

I installed bbPress on my Webserver, I had no Problems. It’s really running great, BUT I cant’s switch the language of my board to German. When I try to do this my board doesn’t work anymore.

The descriptions about the language are quite different, some say I should move the de.mo data into the folder “languages”, some say into the folder “my-languages”.

What should I do now? My useres are all from Germany, so it’s not good for me, that the board is in English.

[Riwatec]

Hey,

I’m trying to use bbpress instead of phpbb. I’m already running 2 forums with phpbb. Now I want to import my Topics, Users etc. to a new bbpress installation. I only found a way to export the data from phpbb 2.xxx, is it also possible to do this with version 3.0.4. oder 3.0.6?

Excuse me for my (hopefully not bad) English, I’m from Germany.

[dougjoseph]

Success. Wiping out the whole hosting account and restoring it from backups has fixed the problem.
