Hi All
I have a bbpress install that is deep integrated with a wordpress MU 2.8.4. Everything is working perfectly, except that when i try to change the default language. When i remove the deep interagtion hook and use the default theme it works.
I can see in trac (ticket/1096)that this is supposed fixed (maybe) but could it be because i’m using wordpress mu instead of the regular ? … any ideas/workarounds ?

@merlin214365: As a golden rule, most functions will return a string by putting get_ in front of the function name, rather than echoing (which is just an alias for the get_ anyway). Most functions you’re likely to need are in functions.bb-template.php too, so have a read through that and I’d recommend getting an editor like Programmer’s Notepad to be able to search through bbPress’ code all at once to understand usage.
strip_tags will take out all HTML and PHP tags, so no need for an extra str_replace
@psycheangels just add some more filters to
if ( $posts ) {
$out = $posts[0]->post_text;
$out = strip_tags( $out );
Like this one
$out = str_replace( '<br />', '', $out );
there might be an easier way but im still learning.
I should have pointed out im still learning php and bbpress functions still mystify me but thanks Kawauso for cleaning up the code i appreciate it.
Inside the folder that as WordPress, put a folder with all the bbPress files in it. So maybe you have this:
/public/html/wordpress/
add a new folder:
/public/html/wordpress/forum/ (or forums or discussion or bbpress)
then access your new installation at http://www.example.com/forum (or whatever you selected) assuming WordPress is accessible at http://www.example.com/
Cripes, no need for all that object-based markey, bbPress has functions to pass as a string rather than echo…
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Meta Headers
*/
function meta_heads() {
global $posts, $tags;
if ( $posts ) {
$out = $posts[0]->post_text;
$out = strip_tags( $out );
$out = str_replace( array( "n", "r" ), ' ', $out );
$out = substr($out, 0, 200); // only display the first 200 characters of the first post
}
if( empty( $out ) )
$out = 'Default description';
echo "n".'<meta name="description" content="'.$out.'" />';
if ( !empty( $tags ) ) {
$keywords = '';
foreach ($tags as $t) {
$keywords.=$t->raw_tag.', ';
}
echo "n".'<meta name="keywords" content="'.substr($keywords,0,-2).'">'."n"; // displays any tags associated with a topic as keywords
}
}
add_action( 'bb_head', 'meta_heads' );
That will strip HTML, but not bbCode
I want to limit the number of conversations/discussions that show on the front page under Latest Discussions > Topic. I found a plugin that might have helped but I can’t log into the admin panel (/forum/bb-admin redirects me to /forum).
The plugin is http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/front-page-topics/
But is there a way to manually edit a bbPress file to change this setting? Thanks for any help anyone can offer.
thanks, but meta description not working because it will insert embed code and image code to header if the first line of the post have markup code. thats a bad thing ryt?
“Thanks for stopping by Andy. “
second that
I just realized that i miss a “quote” button in bbPress 
But what i came here to say is that i miss the possibility to show/hide subforums and make then show up as links beneath the description for their parent.
I must say that im really a fan of this forum software and that it got plenty which i have missed from other forums.
Hope to see more ongoing core development for bbPress in the future. Is this a goal for you?
I am just getting started with bbpress…I am not sure where I am supposed to upload BBPress to…In my file manager I uploaded to the folder I installed my WP to but it doesn’t show up anywhere when I go to that domain…So really I am just totally lost…thanx…Kenney
Hi,
I’m building the community on a portal around bbPress, but how can I check if a user is logged in to bbPress and how to get the basic informations about the user?
I’ve managed to do this with an earlier version of bbPress, but after upgrading to bbPress 1.0.2 I can’t get the result I’m looking for. I’ve tried to require bb-load.php, but it gives me the following error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function suppress_errors() on a non-object in /PATH-TO-BBPRESS/bb-includes/functions.bb-core.php on line 63
Has anyone successfully integrated bbPress with their website (non-WP)?
You can always create a new username… and then change the old posts to use your new username using this plugin:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/edit-post-attributes/
If there are a lot of posts using your username, you’ll have to use a query to change them all at once!
How many Keymasters can be had in bbPress? Is the admin’s user name always displayed under profile?
Thanks.
Is it possible to change the user name that was chosen the very first time while installing bbPress?
Thank you.
Is it possible to block the profile of an admin or a user in bbPress?
Thank you.
I currently am running bbpress 1.0.2. I am trying to insert a google adsense code on my right column/sidebar. My right column/sidebar is currently blank. However, no matter where I put the code, it always displays on my main/left column.
I read somewhere about putting an “includes” function to fetch the sidebar for wordpress. I’m not sure if it will work here?
Does anybody have any ideas they can share?
Thank you!

That is how Akismet works in bbPress – can you post a screenshot of your admin? The Posts tab, then there is a drop down with the following choices: All, Normal, Deleted, Spam (if you’re using the Akismet plugin.) Is that not your experience?
That’s browser functionality for textareas, in Chrome and Safari, not something bbPress can fix. Unless I’m completely missing the point.
I can’t think of any reason not to just repeat the same process for all 24.
Holy F, i just tried it on my forum, and it’s working, WOW
I didn’t know this was even possible. I don’t think its working in Chrome though, is it?
Dear BBCoders…
I think it is small mistake but it is mistake. Your post editor lose it’s shape when we expand it with mouse click from bottom right corner. you should try to solve this small mistake and you should try to fix it’s width and height?
Hope all moderators will smile and take notice 
here are it’s screen shots

Also you should try to solve this mistake in your post plugin
Is there a bbpress plugin that when someone leaves a comment, the original commenter gets get an emailed notification that someone has left a comment reply? For example, if you reply to this post, I would like to get an email that you have replied. The issue comes out is I forget to check to see if there is any updates. I hate having to check daily to see if there are any new replies.
