I’m pretty sure you can’t with Facebook groups, since (as far as I know), you can’t add applications to the groups page so you’re stuck with what’s available. Best I could suggest would be adding a link or using a Facebook Page.

[Marius-]

I know theres a discussion going on about using Facebook Connect with BBPress, but I wonder if there is any there way to merge these two?

I run a website, with an own Facebook group. They usually just write on the wall what the latest discussion is. Manually, with no links.

Is it possible to get something like an RSS feed of the forum integrated into the Facebook group? So users there can see the 10 latest threads appear as links?

[Tomcraft1980]

Hi there,

I have the Problem, that in Code & nbsp; is encoded so the user doens’t see it anymore.

Is there a way to tell bbpress to not encode & nbsp; or does this make other problems?

Kind regards

Tom

@Shagalaga: Maybe you could use a hidden forum for guestbooks? One topic per user that’s had a comment posted, just use the existing topic functions and a modified post form on the bottom of their profile?

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

I think should do it, it’s based off code here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/open-links-in-new-window

Change the values of $forums to the forum IDs of those you wish to restrict (it’ll only work on direct parent forums, not grandparents or categories, I don’t want to include walker code unless people need it).

Tested on 1.0.2 trunk, so I’m not 100% sure it’ll run on 0.9, sorry.

@Hanratty: hiding links using CSS visibility will still leave the link URLs in the code, which isn’t too desirable for some

[akloid]

Thanks a lot for the localization!

[johnhiler]

If it doesn’t work in Kakumei, then it must be something tricky.

Hmm… there were a few similar reports here (although they were around deleting tags, not adding them):

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/the-tag-was-not-removed

But maybe some of those tricks might be worth trying out?

[gerikg]

This is how I’m doing it. Please, this is not the official how to on this.

PART 1

COPY Kakemi theme into my-template. Open Style.css and change this line, Theme Name: Kakumei

I changed it to Theme Name: Kakumei (Edited Theme)

Activate it, you’ll see Kakumei’s screen shot but Kakumei (Edited Theme) as it’s name.

Then open style.css of the Edited Theme and open the CSS of the WordPress theme. Their might be multiple css so look out. I make a line in the style.css at the bottom.

/*********************** WPTHEME *******************

Then start with Header.php and footer.php start copying over the codes from WP theme to BBpress theme. Slowly start looking at the classes it that the header uses and start bringing in the codes from the WP to BBpress CSS. BEWARE some of them uses the same class! so rename the WP one not the BBpress one!!! You will have to replace all the div tags and such. The only one I recommend to keep in the header is the <div id="main"> at the end. The same with the footer. but remember to put an extra </div> on the top to cover the <div id="main"> in the header. Start with that. If you can get the hang of it then you’ll be able to continue.

[chandersbs]

I tried this, I’m using 1.0.1

And I got:

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/onlin196/public_html/forums/my-plugins/tabbladen.php:14) in /home/onlin196/public_html/forums/bb-includes/functions.bb-pluggable.php on line 232

Below you have the whole code i used

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Nieuwe tabblad openen

Plugin URI: http://bbpress.org

Description: opent links in een nieuwe venster

*/

function bb_target_blank( $text ) {

$text = preg_replace(‘||i’, ‘‘, $text);

return $text;

}

add_filter(‘post_text’, ‘bb_target_blank’,255);

?>

[chandersbs]

Congrats to the whole bbPress team

[kirpiit]

> https://trac.bbpress.org/attachment/ticket/1181/full-rss-filters.patch

I don’t seem to be able and reproduce the new version of the files, also because the code in 1.0.2 seems to be slightly different from the one I’m supposed to edit, and I get easily lost (not being a coder myself).

I tried all my best, but still the feed throws an error and does not get created.

Are such files dowloadable from any source, please?

[anandasama]

Its a plugin you can find on bbpress.org

[Olaf Lederer]

Subscribe to the RSS feed in Google reader

I thought long about to have a function like in other forum scripts, but these days RSS is the way how to do it.

I wrote an article about:

http://www.finalwebsites.com/forums/topic/how-to-subscribe-to-topics-from-a-bbpress-forum

[Olaf Lederer]

start with the header and footer, keep the “middle part” as it is.

if you can modify create themes for WP, than it’s not so hard to do the same for bbpress

[Olaf Lederer]

that’s a great number! I’m sure that bbpress will become more popular…

[gerikg]

What happened so far…

Okay I looked through the file. Yangers101 was on the right track. There were some extra lines in the wp-config:

$bb->cookiepath = '';

$bb->sitecookiepath = '';

I took those out.

The problem: “www.” The WPMU was configured to be on website.com/blogs (without the www.)

so all the settings needed to be without the “www.” or with. One or the other on both WPMU & BBpress.

Since his host forced the www. We had to put all the www. in the configuration. BBpress didn’t like the www. in the dashboard so he logged into his DB and manually changed it.

[yangers101]

Thanks gerikg! I just emailed you.

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

I guess it depends on the structure of the theme, but essentially you need to try and match the CSS elements in the theme’s stylesheet to their bbPress counterparts. Some of it will be redundant, and personally I found it easier to just take the bulk of the general styling and then add in the rest later. Didn’t turn out perfect though. I’d recommend using Kakumei as a base as well.

[johnhiler]

I don’t think this is what you want… but the code might provide some inspiration, since it also deals with subforums.

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/counting-forums#post-21338

Good luck!

[johnnydoe]

hardly surprising, bbpress is a solid piece of a forum , and the userbase is imho allways ready to help and at least always kind.

congrats

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

Very impressive indeed if that equates to anything like that number of forums, that’s pretty amazing

[gj-tje]

Okay, I’ve fixed it and it’s working at the moment!

I forgot the settings in wp-admin/options.php for WordPress itself.

[hopeful4info]

Would the fact that I have bbPress working in a iframe in one of the wordpress pages be causing any problems?
