since my last try of getting help with my bbpress installation was a total succes I´ll try again.

How do I change the timestamp (“posted for XX minutes ago”) to a regular clock. “Posted 13.16, september 10th”

Thanks for your help

Could you explain in more detail what you’re trying to do?

[MJ]

So, you basically need to setup your url with a www in front of the domain?

[MJ]

Im having the same issue. I setup

Everything correctly but nothing seems to work together.

Everything works great individually and its all updated to the newest versions.

Gerikg do you think you can take a look at my issue as well.

Thanks

Sure you can upgrade – just follow the instructions here:

https://bbpress.org/documentation/upgrading/

However, definitely back up your files first… as you can’t reverse the upgrade other than restoring an old backup.

Also – do you use any plugins? Many plugins don’t use in bbPress 1.0… so make sure your plugins are available in 1.0 (or that you can live without that plugin) before upgrading.

Good luck!

Most functions using globals, I think you need a class based forum script or you need to build your own bbpress objects

Hi

I have the old legacy branch of BBpress on my website and I want to move to the The latest stable version 1.0.2

I try to find some informations about that on the forum but nothing

I need to keep my users and topics data

I just want to know if it is possible and what is the process

thanks

[pinpin_lelapin]

Yes, indeed it is OFF, I thought it was the input class but it’s not … nvm …

You don’t need any integration plugins if you’re using WP 2.8.4 with bbP 1.0.2.

I’m afraid I don’t quite understand what you mean by it not uploading as a folder though? As long as you keep the basic structure (so you still have bb-admin, bb-includes, bb-plugins and bb-templates folders), you’ll be fine.

To access bbPress as an admin, you need to log into bbPress using the admin account and then a link will be displayed to the Admin panel.

http://phpxref.ftwr.co.uk/wordpress/nav.html?wp-includes/comment-template.php.source.html

In WordPress, comments_popup_link() takes three arguments that tell it how to format the output based on how many comments are present and runs a sprintf() with the appropriate output after retrieving the comment count.

The equivalent to get_comments_number in bbPress would be get_topic_posts, the rest of the function is either WordPress-specific or would need slight tweaking (like what the posts page would actually be).

register_globals is a gaping security flaw that’s been turned off in every recent PHP version. If you have it on, PHP takes anything passed by $_GET, $_POST, $_COOKIE and $_SERVER and turns them into global variables (i.e. ?book=1 in the $_GET array becomes $book = 1). I’d recommend turning it off ASAP.

The edit link turns itself off after a while, it’s not just limited to if anyone else has posted

Ah, and good luck integrating bb-load.php, I could never get it to even play nice with WordPress.

[pinpin_lelapin]

couldn’t find the edit button :

I didn’t fix this issue yet but I got a hint.

the CodeIgniter’s input class (automatically loaded) destroys all global variables in the event register_globals is turned on.

hope someone else might find this useful …

[Ryan Hellyer]

Sam told me this is a throwback to some of the older versions of the software. Hopefully it will be fixed in a future version of bbPress.

Hi,

I see this template and function in all the WP themes, how does this work in wordpress?

Knowing this it might be possible fro bbpress too…

[Mark]

Sorry, it’s a little tongue in cheek. Enlarging your font size can be handled in a variety of ways, and the question was a little broad in its scope.

You’re going to have to edit the bbPress’ theme stylesheet and increase your font size from there.

Hi,

I’m trying to integrate a bbpress forum into an existing codeigniter application. (which basically just means integrating the login/logout/update/register functions and syncrhonizing the databases).

I managed to do so by loading bbpress (simply including bb-load.php) on top of codeigniter and just calling the usual bb_login(), bb_logout() functions whenever needed.

However, I just realised that loading it that way drastically decrease performances (went from ~200 req/sec to ~10).

I now try to load bbpress just when I need it, but some strange things happend when bb-load.php is included AFTER codeigniter itself.

e.g, if bb-load.php is included anywhere before codeigniter/CodeIgniter.php, it works, if included after, it won’t load.

Basically what happened is that variables instantiated in the included scripts (like bb-load.php, or bb-settings.php for instance), are then ‘lost’ when reused as global variables elsewhere in bbpress files.

(for now the variable that cause me troubles if $bbdb, which is fine while still in settings.php, but is empty in others files/functions …)

I guess it may not only been related to bbpress but that’s the first time I see this … Anyone got this problem before ? Didn’t have much luck with Google …

Thanks in advance,

Any idea about the IE issue? https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/need-to-fix-a-couple-of-things-in-theme#post-57347

I’m very glad to have found this discussion – after upgrading from WPMU 2.7.something to 2.8.4, the cookie swap stopped working, and I couldn’t find a good explanation anywhere until I found this thread. Upgrading from bbPress 1.0a6 to 1.0.2 fixed everything.

Thanks very much to the developers for playing catchup to WP’s cookie shenanigans.

[johnhiler]

I think Sam has a fix coming in 1.0.3?

https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1164

[SharpMouth]

Yes I meant bbPress 1.0.2 and not 1.0.3.

I downloaded a fresh bbPress and unzipped it into the directory. Installed anew, still nothing.

Regarding php.ini its…

; allow_call_time_pass_reference

; Default Value: On

; Development Value: Off

; Production Value: Off

[johnnydoe]

i’m looking for a way to use the same output like in wp for the comments like:

<?php comments_popup_link('no comments', 'one comment', ' % comments'); ?> instead of <?php forum_topics(); ?> <?php _e('post(s) or comment(s)'); ?> .

so is there a php pendant in bbpress to count comments or posts the wordpress way?

thank’s in advance

[Mark]

I know it’s only been 16 hours… but this thread is falling off the front page, and I’m still trying to find an answer. Bumpity bump bump bump.

[Mark]

I could be wrong about this, but you should only have to delete the tables from your database and remove the bb-config.php file (you could remove the .htaccess too, but as long as it’s owned by the web server, shouldn’t be a problem for bbpress to rewrite it).

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

<?php if ( !bb_current_user_can('manage_options') ) : ?>

GOOOOOGLE 

<?php endif; ?>

or

<?php if ( !bb_current_user_can('manage_options') ) { ?>

GOOOOOGLE 

<?php } ?>

bbPress/WordPress have a boolean function for pretty much everything

[Mark]

It’s actually a pretty simple hack, though I caution you that I worked it out in the last five minutes.

First, modify the following three lines of your bbpress .htaccess;

RewriteRule ^forum/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /bbpress/forum.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^forum/([^/]+)/?$ /bbpress/forum.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^forum/?$ /bbpress/ [R=302,L,QSA]

change ^forum/ to whatever you want the permalink to be, such as ^sub/ or ^purplepolkadots/, whatever works for you. Then open functions.bb-template.php and go to line 711 inside function get_forum_link() (line numbers may vary). It should look something like:

$link = bb_get_uri('forum/' . $forum->$column . $page, null, $context);

…and change ‘forum/’ to whatever you put in your .htaccess – this seemed to work for me immediately, however as I mentioned, I haven’t done any thorough testing of it.
