This is bbPress Support Forum, not phpBB Support Forum.

[gerikg]

Any custom template I put in my-templates folder does not work anymore.

I have

WordpressMU 2.8.3

BuddyPress 1.0.3

BBpress 1.0.2

1and1 Hosting

MySQL 5

It seem it has a hard time finding the CSS and when you’re in the Admin the thumbnails do not show up.

Same here. Passwords do not work. Users need to reset them.

[_ck_]

If this appears in your front-page.php, then you have bbPress 1.0.x and you have a bug

<?php bb_latest_topics_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="nav">', 'after' => '</div>' ) ); ?>

The same bug was in some rare cases of 0.9

and I programmed around it in topics-per-page

I doubt it will work properly on 1.0 but you can try installing the plugin, remove the above line and replace it with

<div class="nav"><?php front_page_pages(); ?></div>

So did you see the tables created in the database?

I don’t know, but maybe it is because of the GoDaddy ads causing something weir.

I remember installing WordPress 2.6 in their free hosting once, and when I logged in to the admin page there was an infinite loop that didn’t let me do anything.

Do you have PHP4 or 5 set in your hosting account? (with PHP4 it doesn’t create the first forum, and that’s the reason why it doesn’t allow you to log in to the admin panel, but in that case, it show a page to upgrade bbPress, not to install it again, so I guess this is not your problem).

Was there any error shown in the log it appears at the end of the installation?

Thanks. But it’s not exactly what i wanted to….

This plugin disables display_name edition capability, and display_name displaying too…

“user_login” displayed instead of “display_name”

could anyone help me to fix that plugin to achieve the goal ?

No errors.

Everything seemed OK, except passwords didn`t work.

What happens when you access the register link in bbPress? Do you get an error, or it just doesn’t work? Is it different if you are logged in vs. not logged in?

[johnhiler]

Crackpixels – I had the same issue… but _ck_ just released a patch which resolved the problem for me!

Hi, I completed up to step 3 (named the site Steeplechase Homeowner’s Association & specified first user and forum). However, now when I go to http://steeplechasega.info/bbpress/, I get the installer again – as if I didn’t setup anything.

This is frustrating because I should be getting the admin page, correct?

I tried to deleting the three install files in the admin directory remotely, but that seemed like a bad idea, so I re-upped them.

I can’t figure out what’s going wrong. Should I do something to my database? Should I be accessing a different directory for my admin screen?

And it doesn’t help that the installer screen is not allowing me to proceed from step 1 to step 2 and so on.

Someone please help me.

[1onely]

What version did you install?

version 1.0.2

Or, are you trying to search bbPress from WordPress?

no

[aberean]

I am having same issue on fresh install of bbpress! Any Help please?

[unholyfruitbat]

cloo, were there any errors during your conversion?

I was going to attempt 3.0.4 > bbpress 1.0.2 until I saw this

[natasheebear]

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

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

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