Thanks _ck_, nice work with your plugins as well, you’re basically building the other half of bbPress

[_ck_]

1.0 apparently has a reverse post order ability built in

https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/825

It’s not clear how to activate it without editing the core, I will have to take a look at it.

Added: apparently the reversal feature is also available in 0.9, it’s just that changing it in topic.php requires a core edit and it might break the direct-link-to-a-post ability.

Here is a thread with a mini-plugin to reverse the post order in 0.8 that might work also in 0.9 and 1.0

Gravatars are built into bbPress because Gravatars are owned by Automattic (the parent company).

But you can still use an avatar plugin like Avatar Upload and disable gravatars.

Hi

I have updated to bbPress 1.0 (previously I held off until this version came out) and was wondering what’s up with the avatars? Does everyone have the same one and where, if at all, is the upload page/form/box/option or is the forum built for off-site applications like Gravatar?

Thanks

P.S. If no form is present, is there any plugins working with bbPress 1.0?

Remember to file bug reports on http://trac.bbpress.org

They are not much help here.

Hi

I have language problems with with v.1.0.1.

bbpress is installed and working in English.

installed directory my-languages

installed ja.mo and ja.po

But when I write ‘define(‘BBLANG’, ‘ja’);’

I get an error …

Fatal error: Call to undefined function __() in /usr/home/vegan/public_html/chat/bb-includes/functions.bb-core.php on line 26

I have spent hours on this now, download a few different MO and PO files. Tried user language switcher plug in etc … I am getting nowhere.

Anyone had any luck or is it a bug in the latest release?

Thanks.

I have the same issues.

Converted from phpbb3 and all passwords needed to be reset. Then tried to integrate and all the members disappeared except the WP ones.

[incirus]

I have posts in my forum from the converted phpbb. And I also add more posts after I fully converted to bbpress. so it is not the matter of no posts.

Hi there!

I have a question about old topics. So there is a topic on my bbpress forums and its two years old. The topic isn’t closed or anything. But the post form isn’t showing at the bottom of that topic, I know I may come across this again. It says Reply and >> but when you press the >> it doesn’t do anything and the form isn’t under that thread.

Also when you see that particular thread it says “0 posts” but there are several in it.

Running BBPress 0.9.0.4.

Also on my main list of topics, I have a posts and freshness column. But the freshness column says “1 day” on all the topics. However when you go into that actual topic, the threads in there show the proper freshness like “8 hours, 20 hours” etc.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I got the same problem on a fresh install.

Just installed…

WP MU 2.8.1

BBPress 1.01 bachet

Hey you need to integrate the cookies using the plugin bbpress Integration for WordPress. Just google it and insert the code the plugin gives you into the wp-config.php and bb-config.php files.

[Rohan Kapoor]

Are you using buddypress? If your not I would recommend installing it and then using deep integration and the plugin buddybar for bbpress to achieve this functionality. You can find the plugin and help here: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=3483

Hi all!

Does anyone know how to make bb-ratings works with bb-press 1.0.1… made the changes to line 205 & 94 as ck stated in this thread & this other thread http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-using-bb_top_topics#post-20817

I added the template tags – bb_rating(), bb_rating_dingus()… – to my topic.php

however, i only see small boxes, no stars that i can click on to rate the topic.

any thoughts? thanks in advance.

[AndrewRH]

Where is the conversion tool these days? The link to the fileserver, in a message just above no longer works. Is the original script (here) still the best one to use, then? Its folder has _phpbb3_pass.php and phpbb3tobbpress.php files in it dated 09/12/2008

Thanks,

~Andrew~

I have 2.8.1 wpMU install along with buddypress and bbpress

I have managed to intergrate everything but one thing i am struggling to find answers on is this.

Obviously with an MU install there are lots of different blogs, is there a way to have a link back to the blog they came from? Or alternatively a drop down menu listing all the various blogs so they can click to return to the blog they choose?

Thanks in Advance.

@johnhiler – You are right. New dashboard looks awesome. Thanks.

[Great2BeHere]

Great! Thank you..

0.9 is still available here: https://bbpress.org/dl-archive/bbpress-0.9.0.5.zip

There is an unfortunate problem where it’s not listed for easy access like on wp.org

[Great2BeHere]

I have just installed bbPress on my server, but the only version that was available for download is the new version, which seems to have minimal plug-ins and virtually no templates to enhance it. Where can I find templates that will work with this version? I’ve attempted to install templates I’ve downloaded from some sites but these templates don’t work and I really want a forum with more versatility….

thanks,

Sophie

First try switching your theme to the alternate and back again.

If that does nothing, temporarily deactivate any plugin you may be using and see if that does it.

Oh wait, you’ve been hacking at your theme.

<div id="discussions" align="left">

There’s no way that’s the default, you must have edited that.

Replace the theme files from the original.

So far it only looks like you edited front-page.php, so try replacing it with this in bb-templates/kakumei

Iran uses Farsi/Persian so I bet the person who made this forum might be able to help them in their native language:

They used to be active around here too… trying to find the username…

This language file causes RSS for forums not to work. And also translations for month, days, years, seconds etc.. doesn’t seem to be translated at all. :f

Running bbPress 1.01.

Translations for branches 0.9 and 1.0 updated! Available in the SVN repository:

http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/bg_BG/branches/0.9/

http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/bg_BG/branches/1.0/

Ами, радвайте Преоводите са вече в официалното хранилище. За версия 1.0 е 98% завършен, но непреведените неща се виждат само при инсталиране на bbPress.

Ще гледам да го поддържам занапред

Editing the .mo file directly is possible but hardly recommended. I’ll make sure to change “sullat” to “tappat” my next update of the files though.

The ä things are called HTML character entities. I use them to make sure the correct characters will show up regardless of character encoding difficulties. However, not all (but most) e-mail clients parse this HTML, so they may show up in their &-form. Have you experienced this?

Akismet looks at a number of factors – ranging from email addresses to IPs and the texts of posts.

_ck_ also suggested not trying to test Akismet with spammy comments:

I don’t recommend trying to purposely cause spam to test it because akismet might flag you globally as a spammer and you’ll end up being bozo’ed across multiple forums/blogs.

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/what-do-your-posters-see-when-their-posts-as-flagged-by-akismet#post-31467

I’ve marked a few posts as spam on my forum, and noticed that every subsequent comment by that user got flagged by Akismet. Your mileage may vary… but you’re welcome to take your chances.
