Hi all, needed some help with wordpress.

my wordpress add is at http://www.myfairmissy.com/janie/

my bbpress add is at http://www.myfairmissy.com/janie/forums

followed instructions for the cookies and still resulted in me loggin in 1 side and auto-logout on the other.

also would like to know which plug-in should i use for the wordpress if i want ,primarily to…

– i want my wordpress homepage to show 5 columns x 5 rows of latest post image, which will be grabbed from a few specific forum in BBpress. i also need a few buttons to sort or filter results by recent,by view counts, by specific forum

-i want my wordpress to have a few horizontal navigation bars at the header instead of the default ones at the side.

-i want to be change the default header image to my own and able to make my left/right sides blank like this forum. the left/right sides should be easily customized with my preferred wallpaper.

i hope i’m not asking for too much.

thanks in advance

I was just able to download it from here

http://bbshowcase.org/themes/bbpress-forum.zip

Though bbshowcase.org was shut down, the downloads still work for some reason (?!?)…

@ jackey – The patch will haunt you back the day you upgrade WP, because you have to remember to apply the change again on the new, overwritten, wp-settings.php file…

If the fix to comment out that line provides a solution, I don’t know why that function is in the core in the first place. There must be a good reason, I am not a programmer…

[buddha-trance]

Regarding the number of available plugins for the current version, I started a topic on this

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/list-of-working-plugins-with-102

so far, 34 plugins listed as working, I still have to add a couple more…

many that are written to be compatible with 0.9 or earlier, do work with 1.0.2 (we should update the plugin directory).

[jackey]

O.K. that works equally well, and less intrusive… Thanks.

I stopped programming about 30 years ago, but is this kind of patching common practice?

I suspect that this patch will haunt back on me one day.

Don’t misunderstand… I’m happy with the fix, but isn’t there something wrong in the core?

And functions with “magic” in their name give me the creeps.

Thanks again!

[buddha-trance]

@jackey – You could also try what is suggested in one of the links I posted above, to see if it works for you:

“To get round this, go to around line 388 in “wp-settings.php” file and hash out $_POST = add_magic_quotes($_POST); and hey presto!”

In this current version, I have it on line 590. To comment out:

//$_POST = add_magic_quotes($_POST );

Hi everyone,

I am new in bbpress. I try too many times, I search, But I didn’t find!…

I want to see all tags in a page. But I don’t know.

Hi there

This might not be to any importance of you, but your forum has massive css problems on a Mac platform, so it messes up badly (

[jackey]

O.K. Andrew fixed things for the iBlogProForum, but the backslashed where still popping up in the backend. Andrew then suggested to change the PHP setting magic_quotes_gpc to on . And this worked for most of the backend. (Strangly enough for all plugins, but not the “signature” plugin, this one went from \\’ to just one ‘.)

However I stumbled over a warning of PHP.net.

“/This feature has been /DEPRECATED/ as of PHP 5.3.0 and /REMOVED/ as of PHP 6.0.0. Relying on this feature is highly discouraged./”

So I’m afraid this is a temporary fix.

For now I’m content. And running a fully integrated forum at: http://golfclub-stippelberg.nl/forums/

Thanks!

Hi all

I installed bbPress Moderation Suite two weeks ago. It was working perfectly for a good amount of time, until 3 days ago, when I appointed a new moderator for my forum.

It seems that the Moderation Suite is only allowing key-masters to access the moderation control panel. I have a funny feeling that this my have something to do with one of my other plugins. The minute the new mod was appointed, he went straight in to have a browse around my modified admin panel. He told me at that point that he had access to the Mod Suite – but now it seems he doesn’t.

I have created a test user and changed the levels between Moderator and Administrator – nothing worked. It’s only letting Keymasters in.

Any ideas?

Kind Regards

Michael

Try this plugin?

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/support-forum/

[arpowers]

So how does one mark topics as ‘[resolved]’ in BBPress?

Hi Guys,

My name is Dan Milward and I’d like to help. I’ve always yearned for a better bbPress + WordPress integration. Ages ago when we integrated bbPress on our site I thought it would be cool to make a shortcode to run bbpress or significant portions of it from WordPress.

This is how we want to contribute – by doing this.

Skills are advanced.

Best,

Dan

[bbhack]

I might be able to help out as well. I’ve certainly got some ideas

I have 16 years of software and backend web development experience working on some of largest sites on the net (eBay and others).

I would like a quote on integrating WordPress, bbPress, and Memberwing membership system.

To see what I need —

1)Go to http://internet101.biz/wordpress-how-to and join the site (upper right “Free registration for premium content”)

2)Login and then go to the Forum http://internet101.biz/forums . You will be logged in but won’t be able to post because there is no bbPress role defined for Memberwing “Bronze member”.

What I want is for bbPress “member” role to be assigned from Memberwing “Gold member”.

Write to me directly from http://everymanmarketing.com/contact/. I would expect this a 1 or 2 hour job.

Hi gang,

I’m an enthusiast of all things WordPress and would love to help out if I can.

Being unemployed right now, I’ve definitely got some TIME.

My php/javascript skills are kind of entry level, my html/css skills are fairly advanced. That being said, I’d love to get my hands dirty with the code end of things and I’m more than willing to do any testing that’s necessary or write up some documentation.

Just point me at a problem and I’ll get to work.

[Michael]

Hi there

I’m not 100% sure how it would work on a manual basis. There is a plugin called bbPages (https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbpages/) that will have support for “pretty permalinks” in the near future.

Some-one may have to take over the development of this plugin. It may happen in the next couple of months.

[hpguru]

Try disable ALL plugins. Then try if site works/recount. If no, activate all plugins, problem is maybe in bbPress installation. So try this next.

[chrishajer]

You came to the project either a little too early or a little too late, depending on how you look at it. The project is in transition right now so there’s not a lot of visible stuff going on with it. There is quite a bit of discussion behind the scenes.

To address your specific points:

1. yes, the idea is to keep the core light and add plugins to establish the functionality with plugins.

2. https://bbpress.org/plugins/

3. there used to be a site called bbshowcase.org that listed many bbPress sites. That site was recently taken down. You can see people posting about their sites here https://bbpress.org/forums/forum/pimp-your-press and with a little creative googling you can find bbPress forums as well http://www.google.com/search?q=%22powered+by+bbpress%22

If you need functionality that is included in a plugin, be sure to check the version compatibility to be sure it works with the version of bbPress you want to use. There are not currently many plugins for 1.0: most were written to be compatible with 0.9 or earlier. If you want login integration bbPress 0.9 with the latest WordPress, there are plugins to make the cookies compatible between the two versions.

[mrsparex]

dittos… I know almost nothing about building websites but I stepped out in faith and bought space from siteground and they downloaded bbpress for me (free) and with the help of a few members here I have pennyforums.com up and running. buddha trance even told me which file to “play” with to widen my forum which I did (I first totally ruined the file and had to overwrite it ). chrishager even took the time to tell me how to unzip a compressed file (I know that’s kindergarten stuff but heh!) I’ve had nobody belittle me for asking what is to most folks here “dumb questions” and I want y’all to know :

I appreciate it and THANKS for your help.

Seriously….thanks everybody! (what’s this little button on my cpu that says “on/off”? ….just kidding)

Similar issues have been reported by plugins having extra spaces at the end of ’em:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/fix-to-rss-xml-parsing-error

Try deactivating your plugins and see if the issue resolves itself… if so, then activate one plugin at a time until the XML error pops up again!

Greetings all

I installed my bbPress forums (http://www.inniosoft.co.cc/devstation) about 2 weeks ago. I have also added many plugins to it – and everything seems to be just peachy.

However, I now have a problem with my RSS Feeds. I am getting the following error in Mozilla Firefox:

XML Parsing Error: XML or text declaration not at start of entity

Location: http://www.inniosoft.co.cc/devstation/rss/forum/news-and-announcements

Line Number 1, Column 2: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

-^

I have replaced all the RSS files with the originals just in case the were corrupted – with no luck.

To see an example, go to this topic and click on the RSS link at the bottom right:

If you’re looking to have a community within your Blog, you should really be using BuddyPress. It adds a social/community layer onto your existing WordPress MU installation.

Like Chrishajer said, bbPress is not for that – it is simply forum software.

I’m using bbPress for a community – but it’s a Discussion-based community. So a forum is great for that.

WordPress: 2.86

BBpress: 1.0

I have installed bbpress integration and done all things following the instructions. However, I still need to login again when i switch from wordpress to bbpress or vice versa.
