(Tried to convert phpbb 3.0.5 to bbpress 1.0.2 and got this error:

SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]

Table ‘xxx_phpbb.bb_forums’ doesn’t exist [1146]

An SQL error occurred while fetching this page.

Any way I can fix this? Thanks in advance for any help. )

Hi all,

that’swhat i was looking,too. Thank you.

But:

I got the same error as above. I solved it.

I made a new table which i named like the missing file. So it seems to work. But the database has been deleted by half after excecuting the script. I have no idea what to do anymore. Help is needed.

Thank you

Is this possible?

I see many cool widgets from WordPress, that I would like to use in bbpress, is this possible? To have a customisable sidebar plain and simple.

Like, theres a widget that does a vertical scrolling picture gallery. That would be cool in the forum.

Can please someone give me a hint how to do line breaks in bbpress? I mean wp is already horrible but in bbpress there dont even <p>’s work!!

Would be nice is someone knows how to disable autoformatting or only tell me how to do line breaks in textareas.

I would like a shoutbox plugin for bbpress. This is nice communication tool besides all the threads.

The second thing would be an easier integration of wordpress themes.

On my BB Press forum, http://www.invictatrader.com/bbpress/ there is a link called “Home” under the Header which brings a user back to the main page. How do I add more links there to point to other pages on my site?

Thank you.

In my experience, this is the best plugin for uploading images to your forum:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/

[Olaf Lederer]

I don’t think that “only” some plugins will do the job, this looks to me like a custom version for bbpress. Actually it looks like a market place…

What is your budget for this job?

[johnhiler]

This plugin should send an email to the admin every time someone posts to the forum:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/moderator-new-post-notification/

I don’t know if it’s different from Olaf’s previous plugin he linked to above… definitely try out one of the plugins!

[johnhiler]

There’s a good explanation on how to sticky a post here!

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/stick-important-post-on-top#post-12323

[johnhiler]

Yah it looks like you need two main sets of features:

* Photo uploads (you can use bb-attachments for this, although you’d have to mod it)

* Extra fields tied to each topic (i.e. store data in topic-meta)

There’s discussion of topic meta here:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/using-bbpress-for-a-university-book-exchange

You could a few existing plugins as is:

* https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-ratings/

* https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/random-topic/

Hope that points you in the right direction! You probably need a developer to help you build/adapt the plugins you need… good luck!

Hello,

I created a forum on bbpress. As default I selected theme Kakumei. I want to change a look of my forum and decided to find an other theme. I found a theme Crystal. I downloaded this theme from site mybbpress (there is redirection on 33 rockers).

During installation I followed instructions. I read a file readme.txt and put the content of directory Crystal in myforum.com/bb-templates. But after installation I couldn’t find this theme in my Admin: there wasn’t in Appearance, plugins and other places. I read instructions on bbpress.org and put directory Crystal in myforum.org/my-templates too. But the result was same. I can’t find theme on admin of my forum.

What did I do wrong?

[Olaf Lederer]

I wrote this plugin called moderator notification:

http://www.finalwebsites.com/bbpress/moderator-notification.php

[InvTrdr]

If I change the default theme in bbPress from Kakumei to a different one I lose the image uploading ability even though it is an active plugin and works on Kakumei.

Thank you.

I already answered this in your other thread: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/adding-images-to-a-topic

Please don’t start another one for exactly the same thing. Unless you mean, can you upload an image without having to upload it to a server of some kind? In which case, not very practically no.

[InvTrdr]

How is a “Sticky” post made in bbPress? I am using Kakumei, the default template.

Thanks.

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

That code is probably fine, the version number is okay anyway but it’s slightly different to the one above.

There’s an upload plugin for PostImage: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/request-image-upload-with-free-image-hosting#post-56890

That’s the only one I know of

[InvTrdr]

That code above did not work for me chandersbs. The one below did. Is it safe to use the one below?

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Allow Images

Plugin URI: https://bbpress.org/#

Description: Allows <img /> tags to be posted in your forums. The image must be a png, gif or jpeg.

Author: Michael D Adams

Author URI: http://blogwaffe.com/

Version: 0.7.1

*/

// You can add more tags here

function allow_images_allowed_tags( $tags ) {

$tags = array(‘src’ => array(), ‘title’ => array(), ‘alt’ => array());

return $tags;

}

function allow_images( $text ) {

if ( preg_match_all(‘/<img(.+?)src=(“|’)(.+?)\2(.*?)>/i’, $text, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER ) ){

foreach( $matches as $match ){

if (preg_match(‘/src=/i’, $match[4]) /* multiple src = someone’s trying to cheat */ || !in_array(substr($match[3], -4), array(‘.png’, ‘.jpg’, ‘.gif’)) /*only match .jpg, .gif, .png*/ && ‘.jpeg’ != substr($match[3], -5) /*and .jpeg*/){

$text = str_replace($match[0], ”, $text);

}

}

}

return $text;

}

add_filter( ‘pre_post’, ‘allow_images’, 52 );

add_filter( ‘bb_allowed_tags’, ‘allow_images_allowed_tags’ );

?>

I like that bbPress send me an email after that somebody posts a message to forums. Is possible to make this from templates? Or is neccesary write a plugin?

[Stealth Employed]

You are correct. I downloaded it from https://bbpress.org/latest.zip and there it was. Strange that it doesn’t come with the .zip package from the trac site.

On a new note there is now a new installation error:

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /XXXXX/StealthEmployed/forum/bb-config.php:64) in /XXXXX/StealthEmployed/forum/bb-includes/functions.bb-pluggable.php on line 232

I have a feeling this is probably easier to fix than the last one. Any ideas?

[InvTrdr]

I am using the default K theme in bbPress.

Thank you.

[brightcoconut]

Whoops, my bad – I missed it. The link in the first post still works – reposting it here just in case. (You should still read that first post, though, for the directions…)

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

So it works similar to WP but just that you cannot do it through Editor in WP, rather do it directly in the files on the server, correct?

Correct. There’s no theme editor built in to BB at this time, so you have to edit the template file.

And you can use the same GA code from WP to BB without changing anything, but as it’s a different page, you have to edit the bbPress and WordPress templates separately.

[chrishajer]

InvTrdr, you will find most of the functionality you want to add is available as a plugin. Check here:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/hidden-forums/

There was a problem with it working with 1.0 though. I thought someone posted a fix in the comments.
