Reference URL: http://steeplechasega.info/bbpress/

I decompressed the bbPress files and uploaded them to my server. I created a database named bikerpro inside my hosting account. I entered in all of the information into the first install screen and now receive the following message:

A valid configuration file was found at bb-config.php

You may continue to the next step.

However, when I attempt to continue to step 2, I end up back on the first page. Once it allowed me into step 2, but when attempted to skip ahead to step 3, I ended up back up on the first step again.

Please halp!

The issue arose when changing the domain from a devel url (example. devel.website.com) to the live site website.com

I changed the domain in every place I could find:

WP Options

WP / BBPress plugin for WP

bb-admin.php

I searched the database for any instances of devel.website.com and modified them (there were other instances in bb_meta, etc.

The user logs in through the WordPress admin, but is not logged into BB Press. Similarily, if the user logs out of WP Admin, they are not logged out of BB Press.

Anyone run into the same issue? Thanks for your help!

Read this: https://bbpress.org/documentation/themes/

See how in step 1 it says to make sure you have a my-templates folder?

You’ll be putting style.css in /public_html/forum/my-templates/NEWTEMPLATE/

With a header in style.css like this:

/*

Theme Name: The name of your cool new theme.

Theme URI: Your theme's url. Maybe it's the blog post you wrote about it.

Description: Describe your theme here. You can be nice and say something like "Blues and Greens in a two-column format" or enigmatic and say "The river here is only waist deep".

Version: Always number your releases. Please only use numbers and decimal points (yes, we broke our own rule).

Author: Author of the original theme,

Author URI: and his or her url.

Ported By: Name of the person who ported the theme to bbPress (if applicable),

Porter URI: and his or her url.

*/

Under that you’ll put your custom CSS like

topic-tags { display: none; }



post-form-tags-container  { display: none; }

You can try, but even if you did, I’m pretty sure I’d never see if there were blank lines or extra lines below and above, would I? That’s the bi**h about debugging this

The only ticket on this even says blank lines are the cause: https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/815

[nedsferatu]

Thanks Guatam for the fix: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-browser-fixed-to-be-compatible-with-bbpress-10-12

[nedsferatu]

Looks great awesome work! Thanks for your help with this, it makes managing bbpress so much easier.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

If the user is visible in the bbPress forum panel, then it IS added in SQL. It’s possible your host is just hiding it somewhere you can’t see.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

In WordPress that error is almost always caused by spaces or blank extra lines in your config file.

http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/wordpress-error-warning-cannot-modify-header-information/

The same is, generally, true of bbPress. Please read the link above to make sure that when we talk about spaces, we’re both talking about the same thing

I’m trying to integrate WordPress MU 2.8.3 and bbPress 1.0.2

When I access my site through WordPress everything works fine, I see myself logged in at bbPress and I can access the admin area. When I access my site through bbPress and then go to /wp-admin/, it redirects me here: /wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mydomain.com%2Fwp-admin%2F. I can fill in the login name and password, and it’ll let me in, but it should just appear the dashboard in the first place…

I’ve followed Sam’s screencast, step by step, and tried it over three times with fresh installs… but still happens the same. But I don’t know, maybe I’m missing something.

First I install Wordpres Mu. Then I go to the bbPress installation page. I fill in everything to integrate it with WordPress. Then I map the user registrations, although I have also left this step for the last one in another installation/integration. I go WordPress, download the bbPress plugin, copy the cookies configuration, paste it into wp-config.php. The I delete all the cookies and temp files in my browser.

It’s strange, cause when I go to the home page of the site I can see I’m logged in:

WordPress µ

This is a WordPress Mu powered site.

You can:

* Site Admin

* Log out

* Create a new blog

* Edit this file at wp-content/themes/home/home.php with your favourite text editor and customize this screen.

But it still won’t access the administration dashboard. I’ve tried registering another user giving it administration control, but the redirection thing still happens.

It’s kinda funny cause one of the times I installed WordPress Mu and bbPress while I was testing, I could integrate them with no problem. But when I tried it under the final domain, it always happens the same, and gives me that ‘little’ problem.

These are the cookies when I access the admin areas:

After WordPress login:

wordpress_logged_in_*****************

wordpress_*************

bb_user-settings-time-1

After going from WordPress Admin Dashboard to bbPress Admin Dashboard:

wordpress_logged_in_*****************

wordpress_*****************

wordpress_*****************

wordpress_test_cookie

bb_user-settings-time-1

wp-settings-time-1

wp-settings-1

I delete all the browser’s cookies and do the opposite.

After bbPress login:

wordpress_logged_in_*****************

wordpress_*************

bb_user-settings-time-1

After going from bbPress Admin Dashboard to WordPress Admin Dashboard:

This is when the redirection problem comes in!

wordpress_test_cookie

wordpress_logged_in_*****************

[hpguru]

No.

[Pratik Bagaria]

Hi anandasama,

I followed the same order.

Even I think that my user meta and cookie integration might have some problem, is there any way to check the same?

Or can I do it again the cookie and user meta integration part?

thanks

[anandasama]

still in heavy development but I got the crucial stuff working.

Once I got most functions and plugins working at a decent level I will make my own theme out of it.

http://matsuri.moai.se

[anandasama]

You need to integrate the user meta and the cookie integration. Seems like you made a mistake with both?

Make sure you installed everything in this order:

1. Clean DB (No old WP_ or bb_ tables. Clean it)

2. Install WPMU

3. Install Buddypress

4. Install BbPress

I used this guide and got it working:

http://umwblogs.org/wiki/index.php/Integrating_WPMu%2C_BuddyPress%2C_and_bbPress

[anandasama]

Ah but I use Buddypress and when users create groups in bp, automatical Subforums are created (Under the Parent forum id 1) in BbPress. But if I hide forum 1 (The parent), the other forum topics will still show in the latest discussions.

And Its too painful to go and edit this afterwards. It must be automatic.

I got some if Statement working with the forum loop. I excluded some subforums showing by using:

`<?php if ( bb_forums() ) : ?>

<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : global $forum; if ($forum->forum_parent != 0) continue; ?>

<!– insert forum stuff to be looped –>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php endif; // bb_forums() ?>`

but I cant get it working with topics.

Thanks Josh

Ok thks,

i think the good uri is https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/front-page-topics/

thanks.

@Ipstenu: I deactivated the Ajaxed Quotes plugin, didn’t seem to make any difference.

I then deactivated all of the plugins, that didn’t change anything either.

So I deactivated all the plugins and switched to the default theme. No changes. But when I reactivated those plugins, and switched to my custom theme, I am able to see those posts now, even when I am not logged in.

The “+2 more” link still remains at the top, but the posts in the thread don’t seem change between the regular and all views. So it seems partially fixed, but the more link remaining makes think that more posts could get caught in this limbo.

It almost seems like there was some caching involved and reactivating the theme and the plugins cleared this. But I don’t see that being the case with any of the plugins I am using. And it isn’t the brower’s cache, the problem is the same on multiple machines, any OS or browser.

[Josh Leuze]

@johnhiler: I am using 1.1, the latest version of Akismet.

I should also mention that I can’t replicate this. If I mark a post as spam, and then go in and mark that post as not spam, it shows back up just fine in the thread.

It only appears to be happening when Akismet itself filters a post as spam.

[Josh Leuze]

@chrishajer: I can sort of rescue a spam post. I don’t have any problem finding the spam posts in the admin panel, and marking them as “Not Spam”. They disappear from the spam posts and show up in the regular posts.

But in the front end, they do not show up unless I am logged in as admin and click the “+2 More” link.

I am using a custom theme, but it is built from Kakumei and should not be very functionally different from that. I switched back to the default theme, and everything functioned the same.

[cristiano.testa]

I registered a hosting space on http://www.netsons.com (it’s free). They offer a mysql database. I istalled wordpress and bbpress on the space, and worked. But the question is: when i installed bbpress…it asked me about a mysql url…i inserted netsons’s mysql url… it sayed ok.

But when i register a new user on forum…the record is not in netsons’s mysql!!! the user is visible only in bbpress forum panel.

So: why it asked me about a mysql URL if it don’t use it?

i’m newbie from italy…sorry

[Pratik Bagaria]

here is the site in question: http://www.waapsols.com

Its running Buddypress.

These are the steps i followed to integrate BB and BP… http://buddypress.org/forums/topic/bp-103-and-bbpress-which-version-plugins-cookies#post-20006

WPMU, BP, and BB is working good. But I just can’t get the logins to work, I mean when I login into WPMU, I am not automatically logged into BBPress Forum.

I am guessing thats the reason why in my BuddyPress, the forum is working fine, but who ever posts, there is no gravtar or name is seen

Can someone help, what might have gone wrong.?

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

No, bbPress 1.0.2 is released. 1.1 is being built.
