That makes sense… it’d be interesting to see if the profile info not displayed is actually retrievable anyway by adding the key from the database to the profile fields array. Displaying bbPress info in WordPress might be the same, I’ve never really looked at how it pulls it up.
Most integration issues I tend to see are related to deep integration, rather than straight forward user integration. I guess it boils down to, does bbPress transfer over existing users to WP’s user tables cleanly (or at all) if you integrate it post-install. It would be possible to do manually anyway, since their respective user tables are essentially identical in structure, but bbPress users would have no WordPress meta whatsoever.
Now, of course, the Big Question is: is it possible to take this newly-converted bbPress forum and get it to integrate nicely w/ a WordPress install? From the poking around that I’ve done, it seems that people have only had success integrating a brand-new bbPress install, not one with data/history in it.
I’d love to be proven wrong, though… any ideas?
gerikg: bbPress uses the WordPress user (profile) tables when integrated
Ashfame – This is a _ck_ plugin that lets you one-click sub to a thread:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/subscribe-to-topic/
I use it on several sites, and it’s excellent.
Is there a plugin or a way to code this? This was a feature that helped me increase the number of registered users back then when I was using SMF.
How can this be achieved with bbPress?
Hiya Quick Question,
I’m Modifying Mike Lothar’s SCOUN bbPress theme. At the very top of the page, there are 3 Links:
– Search
– Register
– Log in
I want to modify those links (and add new ones). How do I do that, I can’t find anything in the php pages nor the css. Cheers.
you’re talking about line breaks while posting to the forum?
I’m sure that bbpress removes double linebreaks, just like WP
(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.
In my experience, this is the best plugin for uploading images to your forum:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/
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?
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!
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?
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.

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