If login works normally, what do you see next to your name after you log in?

Welcome, ChrisHajer! View your profile (Admin | Log Out)

or

Welcome, ChrisHajer! | Log Out

In the first case, I am keymaster and have admin access. In the second case, I am just a member and have no admin access. I you have the first, click on Admin and you will have access to the bbPress back end.

If you have the second, the account you’re logging in with might not have keymaster access. There was a plugin to restore keymaster access, but it was good only for up to 0.9. Not sure if it works with 1.0.

If it doesn’t work, then you will need to edit the permissions directly in the database.

I just set up a bbpress in a subfolder of my wordpress blog /forums and everything seemed to be working fine until I tried to install some plugins.

I would click on “Plugins” on the left side of the menu and be directed to a blank page: /forums/bb-admin/plugins.php

I have really no idea what to do right now and could use any kind of help you guys can offer.

[chrishajer]

If you just want solid green, don’t use an image. bbPress uses an image tiled across because there is a gradient in it. If you just want solid color, just set the background-color of the div to whatever you want it to me, and remove the reference to the background image url.

[chrishajer]

bbPress is not a plugin for WordPress – you already figured that out and moved it.

To reinstall, I would drop the tables from the database, then delete your bb-config.php and start the installation again in the new location. If you have errors after a clean install like that, post them here.

[chrishajer]

If you think it’s a bug you should open a ticket at http://trac.bbpress.org

[hokejzinas]

Now I try to set up my own web, so I choose WordPress. And when i try to install bbpress there is one problem

First of all I upload all bbPress files in subdirectory /Forum

All installation went fine, and finish succesfully, but when I try to reach my forum/admin panel (http://…… .com/Forum), than there is error message:

“Oh dear!

bbPress is already installed.

Perhaps you meant to run the upgrade script instead?”

What I should to do, to avoid it, and set up bbPress correctly?

Thanks!

I made a div called “min-height” in the footer.php file and set it to “px” in the CSS stylesheet. With “px” it goes to the bottom of this example page http://invictatrader.com/bbpress/forum/why-watts-trading-system in Firefox but it still hangs in IE. Is there a way to set the “min-height” in the Stylesheet to something other than “px” so that the footer will always hug the bottom of the page? I tried “auto” and “%” but they did not work. Doing this pushes it down on all pages, which is not needed on all my pages as some are long enough to push the footer to the bottom.

Thank you.

For the record — I am completely and totally new to bbPress but I have a pretty good knowledge of wordpress and themes.

I am setting up a forum for french speaking people so the interface has to be completely french BUT, I am english and need the admin area to be english. We installed version 1.0.2 thinking we could get a plugin but now I wonder if I have the right installation.

Can anyone help me figure this out?

Thanks!

Chris had some great advice for a user in a similar situation here:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/problems-trying-tlo-install#post-58763

Is it possible that there’s a missing BB in front of your constant names in bb-config.php?

[thekmen]

I copied all the required styles from WP to the bbPress theme.

If you look at the source of the WP end, you will see I placed 2 <–COPY–> here markers for the Page & Cat nav, then in the bbPress backend theme options you just paste that code.

[nickaster]

Yeah, I did, but it’s still happening with new posts. I followed the instructions here, by Adam Kayce and made the changes he suggested.

Apostrophe and or quotation marks cause backslash to appear.

No luck at all, still got those slashes!

It sounds like your old account was possibly Bozo’d:

I’ll add the tag “modlook” to this post so that a moderator knows to check your old account for a Bozo flag!

I have a deep integration of bbPress 1.0.2 and WordPress 2.8.4 at riogallinasschool.org, using a heavily modified Kakumei template.

Integration works well. I only register users from WP. Logins work from either BBP or WP. WP users appear correctly to BBP (every user can log in from both WP and BBP)..

Logout from WP is fine regardless of where the login occurred (so, no cookie problems).

However, when logging out from BBP (using the Kakumei “Log out” link), the logout occurs (so cookies are working), but I am redirected to a 404. The logout link is bb-login.php?logout=1. I have found that, on the other hand, the link bb-login.php?logout=0 (as typed in) works just fine — logs out, redirects back to page.

I have hacked a solution. I don’t understand it (I haven’t yet been able to follow the use of the GET variable logout to find where it’s value is used anywhere). But in case anyone else has this problem, here’s the hack.

The logout link is produced by the function call bb_logout_link(); in the template’s logged-in.php file.

bb_logout_link is defined in bb-includesfunctions.bb-template.php, and effectively calls bb_get_logout_link with the same arguments. In the latter function, around line 2737, the value logout=1 is hard-coded.

I have changed the code for bb_get_logout_link so (a) it defaults to logout=1 if logout is not specified in the call to bb_logout_link (thus the hack is non-destructive), but (b) the call bb_logout_link(‘logout=0’); overrides the default.

This produces the working link, so the “Log out” link works.

Here’s the code

Old line 2737 of bb-includesfunctions.bb-template.php was

$query = array( 'logout' => 1 );

I changed that to the following (which works because the args were “extract”ed, so $logout has a value from the call to bb_logout_link):

if ( $logout==NULL ) $logout = 1;  // Defaults to 'logout=1'

$query = array( 'logout' => $logout );  //  Changed '1' to '$logout'

Then in the template’s logged-in.php, I added the argument to the call to bb_logout_link:

bb_logout_link('logout=0');

It works for me.

Has anyone else has had this problem? If not, I must have broken something somewhere else — so I’d like to know.

Can anyone explain the bug, or explain where the value of logout is used? (I’ll keep looking, and will post a followup if I find it, but I’m not expert at the subtleties of apply_filters, which appears to be the only possibility.)

Thanks.

I am new to the forum, so I hope I posted it in the right place.

I am wanting to add a simple button-link to my WordPress Blog Post template saying something like “Discuss In Forum”. I am using WordPress-bbPress-synchronization to post Blog items to my Forum. This plugin generates a link in the most recent comment that allows you to visit the correct topic for that blog post.

I would also like to add that I do not know code, so a simplified question is this: How can I add a button to my forum for the correct topic without changing the link every time I use it? Is this something relatively easy to accomplish?

Thanks in advance for help

[johnhiler]

This is actually built into the core, as I understand it… users can’t post more than every ___ seconds (I think the default is 30 seconds, but I’m not sure).

You can actually increase or decrease the “throttle time” with this plugin:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/change-throttle-also-is-it-based-on-username-or-ip

There are a few threads on throttling on the boards!

[chrishajer]

Not that I know of. The last time someone asked, I think we came up with a javascript solution, to prevent a second click.

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/double-posts

[chrishajer]

Have you read these threads?

https://bbpress.org/forums/tags/this-topic-has-been-closed

Did you remove the “pick a forum: drop down from your theme? I recall that having an affect at one point. Otherwise, have you recounted all your topics, posts, etc, in the admin?

[chrishajer]

What is “WordPress Sync”? Can you post the URL to that please?

[chandersbs]

how did you do that

It’s looking good.

[johnhiler]

This plugin should do just that!

Hi all,

just wondering if anyone wants to help testing with a Hybrid & bbPress theme?

The wordpress end is a child theme of Hybrid, & bbPress end is based on Justin Tadlocks experimental bbPress theme.

I’ll fix up a few bugs tomorrow & let anyone who wants it have it in the next few days.

You can set the forum url in the wp admin & the link will get added to the page nav.

You can also set user registrations to be done by bbPress instead of WordPress, and profile links to the bbPress profile pages.

There is also an area in the bbPress admin to copy & paste your page_nav & cat_nav source, not the same as full integration, but a lot easier…

Feel free to try it out, register & post rubbish if you want.

Hi Gang, I see others have had difficult getting the installer to connect to the database. I do as well. here is my status:

1) I reviewed all my database name/user/password. confirmed against wp-config file. all good.

2) Database on same server as wordpress and bbpress install;

3) No bb-config file is created yet, so nothing to delete. There is a bb-config-sample which I have left in tact.

4) My host is Dreamhost; my wordpress blog running like a champ

5) bbpress folder installed in root directory of wordpress

Still won’t connect. Thoughts? THANK YOU

THANK YOU.

I have managed to get BBPress and WordPress Sync installed on my web site. That is, the sync plug in (the latest one) is installed and “working” (albiet not as I want it to be). There were a lot of check boxes and input involved to make the plugins (both on the BBPress side and the WordPress) work and see each other. In some of the check boxes I just clicked on them because I was unclear about what they meant.

The way I would like my WordPress to work is like this. When the user makes his comments about the blog, he is making them in the Forum. So the whole input field where he posts his responses to blogs are not there. Instead there is a link that takes him to the forum where responses are mirrored as responses to the blog.

If a user goes directly to the forum (an option I will allow). And makes a brand new discussion thread, it is not automatically posted in the blog and the responses to that post are not reflected in the blog as well.

There are lots of options on the Dashboard for setting up the plugins. Which options should I check and how do I customize the plugins such that my blog and forum behave like I want them to?
