To be perfectly honest – I agree with Chris.

This type of thing will be fixed when the next bbPress comes out – which will have a different intergration system

Hi

I have made a post at my forum, Dev:station:

“The problem with bbPages is that the customized pages are stored in an SQL Table within your bbPress Database. In effect, and based on the way it loads, the PHP code will not execute.

If, however, the plugin saved the custom page as a PHP file, it would work.

Once bbPress starts to mature with a new version, I may create such a plugin.”

User with role in bbPress and without role in WordPress log in to WordPress and WordPress change role none to your WordPress default role.

Seeing the same here.

Using WP 2.8.6 and BBP 1.0!

[Casemon]

Feel am getting closer to a publishable bbPress install! Woot!

In addition to the above fact cannot access Admin area (# 1 above), noticed another strange issue, possibly related to #1 above.

1. All the page titles in the forum are: “Page Not Found” despite the page loading fine. Guess this is also an .htaccess issue?

[Olympus]

I think the only things bbPress really needs are :

• A better default theme . The actual theme is too Web 0.9 . Oh, and try to get rid of the green, or use it in a clever way like Technorati or Techcrunch .
• Facebook, Twitter ( no plugins for the both until now … ) and OpenID ( there’s already a plugin by _ck_ ) integrated by default .

Hello,

I integrated wordpress Version 2.8.6 with bbpress Version 1.0.2

My user table is correctly shared, couse i can login on both.

When I switch from wordpress to bbpress, I am nog logged in, if i log in on bbpress i get logged out on wordpress.

Does any one know what i did wrong ?

[chrishajer]

2. Does this problem occur when you use a stock theme like Kakumei?

And your integration is not correct if when you log in to WordPress you get logged out of bbPress.

I tried the following:

<?php $topic = $GLOBALS = get_latest_topics( array( ‘number’ => 1, ‘forum’ => get_forum_id() ) ); ?><?php topic_last_post_link(); ?>

But all it returned was:

Is there any documentation on the tags available with bbPress? I’ve tried searching this site and Google, but I can’t seem to turn up anything comprehensive.

Thanks.

[Gautam]

Thanks Michael

[Casemon]

Sorry, that’s:

# BEGIN BBPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /forum/

Options +MultiViews

</IfModule>

# END BBPress

[Casemon]

So that page is current? It appeared to me that it was a bit out of date with the references to pre-1.0, but hey, glad it works!

So that solves 2) Awesome! Am still seeing 1)

Thinking this is an .htaccess issue. Is there a current link for what should appear in the .htaccess file? Still getting blank page anytime I click on Admin or access an admin page manually (via url).

: Have tried

– Deleting cookies

– Flushing cache

– various long & convoluted .htaccess files found here.

Have installed to a subdir of my root wp installation, dir is named forum.

Here is my current .htaccess for bbpress:

# BEGIN BBPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /forums/

Options +MultiViews

</IfModule>

# END BBPress

Almost there!

@sennad, yep! Anyone ever came up with hacks to show the facebook pics appear as avatar in bbpress?

anyone? thx

[Michael]

I have downloaded it, thank you. I saw that the problem came from the fact that it was only allowing Key Masters as the minimum access. I realized that there was a problem with my database which is why it was not saving the settings when I changed them.

It al works perfectly now – thanks!

[Michael]

That’s awesome! I have just commented on the beta. Thank you!

And thanks for the tips – they sound very logical, and pretty much confirm what I kept asking myself.

I really appreciate all your help.

[Gautam]

Just released bbCumulus beta – https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-cumulus/

[Ben L.]

The problem has now been fixed in the development version.

[Ben L.]

What you can do is use the MD5 function on a password and put it in the database. Then you can log in with the new password and bbPress will handle the hashing.

The passwords are difficult, if not impossible to decrypt so an attacker that gets access to your database won’t have everyone’s passwords.

The email retrieval of passwords just generates a new temporary password and sends it to the user. It can’t get the old password.

[Ben L.]

What type of integration do you have? Deep (WP functions available in bbPress) or basic (what I suggest, just having the login and user database integrated)?

[f1f]

1. 1.0.2

2. Yes

3. Akismet, Allow Images, bbPress polls and Comment Quicktags for bbPress; disabling them does not fix the problem.

4. Yes, version 2.8.6. However I’ve also noticed that when I log into the blog it logs me out of WordPress, so perhaps the integration is also faulty?

[Olympus]

Well the problem is that they don’t give SQL backups ( they said it in their FAQ ), because it’s part of their business ( they can’t afford to let someone leave them ) .

But then I found that our forum at xooit.com has a hidden RSS feed ( forumaddress.xooit.com/rss.php ), so I thought I could use it with bbPress but as I see, I can’t …

Thanks anyway Michael !

[nivosh]

I found the culprit…

It’s the bbpress SEO tools plugin from this site: http://www.finalwebsites.com/forums/forum/bbpress-plugins-and-modifications

any of you know a seo plugin for bbpress?

thanks

[Gautam]

Here are some steps when converting WP plugins into BB:

1. Change everything from WP to bb (except some functions like wp_enqueue_scripts, etc – they are borrowed as it is from WP, actually they are in BackPress)
2. Activation & Deactivation are hooks, not functions
3. There are some different functions like bb_title();, bb_option('description');, bb_option(’uri’);
4. If a function name doesnt start with wp_, then most of the times bb_ is added to avoid conflicts when WP functions are loaded into bbPress (integrated)
5. There are also functions like bb_is_topic() etc like is_single() in WP
6. etc….

BTW, nice theme of your forums…

[Gautam]

Michael, I am already working on bb Cumulus, and it is almost completed.

You can see it active on my test site – http://forum.gaut.am/
