The instructions in the readme file should mention the settings?

* Until an admin menu is created, edit read-only-forums.php and change settings near the top as desired

* Add the read-only-forums.php file to bbPress’ my-plugins/ directory and activate.

[johnhiler]

What version of bbPress are you using? The plugin may not be compatible with version 1.0…

Also – what edits did you make to the settings section of the admin?

[gerikg]

It depends on the theme. Go into your theme folder in BBpress and open header.php. Figure out where the links are being created. Then just insert an html tag (no need for php) `<a href=””> blah</a> etc etc Just make sure you have the correct surrounding tags. Sometimes they use

<li> </li>

and throw in class=""..

An easy way to do it on WPMU is create a page the same as the directory. If it’s in http://www.website.com/forums then create a page call forums.

Hello!

I create e social network on WordPress MU+Buddypress+bbpress.

I want to create a button “Home” in header of bbpress to unite my social network and forum. And in header of Buddypress create a button “Forums”. How can I do it?

I’m not a programmer and I don’t know php-code veru well.

Help me!

[gerikg]

I made a solution!

Okay this is the fix I came up with. I created a new group in BP profile called signature and the field name signature too.

In BBpress in the post.php I inserted (note I don’t know PHP, if anyone can shorten this would be appreciated):

<?php if ( bp_has_profile(‘user_id=’.get_post_author_id().’&profile_group_id=XXX’) ) : ?>

<?php while ( bp_profile_groups() ) : bp_the_profile_group(); ?>

<?php if ( bp_profile_group_has_fields() ) : ?>

<?php while ( bp_profile_fields() ) : bp_the_profile_field(); ?>

<?php if ( bp_field_has_data() ) : ?>

<?php bp_the_profile_field_value() ?>

<?php endif; ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php endif; ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php else: ?>

<?php endif;?>

Just replace XXX with your group id #, mine was 3.

Still not the ideal _CK_ type plugin but it will do for now.

Hello!

I need a plugin, which can change header and footer in bbpress.

I create a social network. I use for it WordPress MU+Buddypress+bbpress.

I want to create a button “Home” in header of bbpress to unite WordPress MU and bbpress. And vice-versa I want to create a button “Forums” in header of Buddy Press.

I’m not a programmer and I don’t know php-code very well.

How can I do these changes?

Thanks

I think you’re actually trying to install buddypress and bbpress.

Make sure you’re looking in the right directory – it’s very easy to confuse “bp” with “bb”.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Yes, it’s an issue with bbPress. It’s an issue with WordPress too. It’s an issue that means you need more memory. The memory limit (see the WP Codex for more on WP_MEMORY_LIMIT) means you need to increase your blog’s PHP memory limit. Why they call it limit and not something that implies ‘adding’ I don’t know.

Which usually means your webhost hasn’t allocated enough to run WP/BB. Which means it’s actually an issue with your webhost that MAY be work-aroundable with manual tweaking.

While you’re welcome to try BB_MEMORY_LIMIT (which is the logical name for it), I don’t think it exists.

If you actually read the links I gave you, you’d know that PerishablePress (a fantastic resource) mentions you may be able to increase memory limits by editing wp-config.php like so:

<?php

@ini_set("memory_limit","16M");

Try that on bb-config.php and see how it works.

You’re probably going to need to dig into your php settings to see how much memory you’ve got right now, and how much you have to play with. You’ll need to savvy up on your error logs too, to see where it’s barfing.

Hello, everybody, I’ve searched around the forum but none of the mentioned solution works for me.

I’ve integrated bbpress into my WordPress in a subdirectory called forum, so it looks like mysite.com/forum/

I have created the .htaccess under this directory. Everything is working fine. All the forums, topics and tags could be viewed normally.

But there is always a 404 error in the breadcrumb which I used in WordPress.

Any help is warmly appreciated, thanks in advance.

[johnhiler]

It might be a file permissions issue?

I got this error message when trying to install:

“The key master could not be assigned. You may need to replace bbPress with a fresh copy and start again.”

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks!

Dear friends,

is not the fault of the webhost but bbpress. I want to know how to set its memory capacity. Usual procedure with WordPress (WP-MEMORY LIMIT).

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

No, it’s a known issue with WP and php memory, so I’m not surprised to see it crop up with bb as well.

Read here:

http://www.narfstuff.co.uk/2008/03/14/php-memory-and-wordpress/

http://perishablepress.com/press/2008/02/19/improve-site-performance-by-increasing-php-memory-for-wordpress/

But seeing as you don’t know how to do that now, I suspect you’ll need to talk to your webhost for help. If you have a good host, they’ll help you out

[Olaf Lederer]

I guess it’s just an error from your webhost or you need a better webhost

[antoniobon]

How can I allocate more memory to php? Can you be more exhaustive?

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

You may need to allocate more memory to PHP, but IIRC there’s no way to do that via bbPress.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

@sambauers Could you post that “trivial” code that allows for a BB login box in WP that will redirect back to the page after login?

This is where I think Shallow Integration has the upper hand. I have the bb login on the bb side, and the WP in-line login on the WP side, and no matter where my peeps log in from, there they are. All I do is redirect registration to the WP side, which kicks them back to the main WP page. And that’s okay, since 92% (I love stats) of visitors start there anyway.

As for includes on bbpress … Actually smilies, which are built into WP, would be nice, but they’d have to be easy to customize and expand. Some people like a million, some people like 10. Avatar upload isn’t going to happen unless Automattic dumps Gravatar. Quote ‘options’ would be a nice plugin.

[magickseeker]

Looks great! Thanks for the update.

[antoniobon]

I have a problem with memory bbPress 1.01 integrated with wordpress 2.84. I can install a limited number of plugin because the register.php bbpress’s become blank. How can I increase the ram in bb-setting?

[heartson]

Yes.

[Gautam]

a. Private message

b. Avatar upload

c. Memberlist

d. Quote option in topics

e. Smilies

I prefer them to be as plugins, not integrated within bbPress. If we need to update some part of code of those features, we could just update the plugin not the full forum board. The plugins can also be managed by individuals, not by the creators of bbPress.

You rarely have to do any template edits to use the plugins, all possible of add_action and add_filter

[DennisH]

@heartson is bb and phpbb in the same db?

[Marius-]

BBpress has worked out good so far. So I’m not buying that summary.

Several plugins works just by drag and drop, and thats how I like it, thats how it should be. Anything else can stay away from me.

[maxbmx]

You can use the HTML Purifier plugin and allow any other tag also:
