Hello

I have installed bbPress 1.0.2 today here:

http://www.newlondonsingers.org.uk/blog/wp-content/bbpress

Step 1 & 2 of the install did not have any errors, but step 3 said could not create Forum

I selected options to integrate WordPress (v 2.6.3) which is here

http://www.newlondonsingers.org.uk/blog/

I also have the plugin Members-only installed (v 0.6.7)

Am using PHP 4 and MSSQL 4.1.22

I can’t access bbPress – assume I go to :

http://www.newlondonsingers.org.uk/blog/wp-content/bbpress

which then goes to here: http://www.newlondonsingers.org.uk/blog/wp-content/bbpress/bb-admin/install.php

– says Oh dear!

bbPress is already installed.

Perhaps you meant to run the upgrade script instead?

Please can you help?

Many thanks

followed the step by step BBpress installer. got close but not close enough. Here’s what it’s telling me. I understand the the bb-config was not writable, I know how to change file permissions. My question is: how / where do I go to manually update this info?

>>> WordPress cookie keys not set.

>>>>>> Your “bb-config.php” file was not writable.

>>>>>> You will need to manually re-define “BB_AUTH_KEY”, “BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY” and “BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY” in your “bb-config.php” file.

Okay, so I’ve integrated bbPress with my WordPress DB and theme. I’ve customized it quite a bit but I’m still having one very annoying problem.

http://scrawlfx.com/forum/topic/welcome-to-the-forums

See that huge space on every response? Why does that happen? How do I remove it? I’ve looked in the CSS but have found nothing. Please help me out.

I am having problems with the cookies and login integration part. I followed the guide yet nothing seems to help. I edited both configure files and installed the plugin into wordpress everything seems good in the back system yet i cant get the user login part to work together.

My site is http://bloggerhouse.com/ and the forum is http://bloggerhouse.com/forum

Any help to getting this to work would really be appreciated thanks!

Bugs should be reported at trac.bbpress.org

[chrishajer]

You can use the “Admin can post anything” on anything up to 0.9.*. I don’t believe it works with 1.0.

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/admin-can-post-anything/

That will allow the keymaster to post anything, including scripts.

[taboo]

How about going to http://bbpress.org/forums/tags/make-sure-no-tag-exists

Should be 404 is… null.

(if it’s not right place to submit bugs, where should I send them?)

Ive seen some forums have special links coming up on a topic when there is some new post that a member didnt read, and the link will take you to the last unread post instead of the last post.

Is this something that can be done in BBpress?

Hi there,

I’ve some strange problems upgrading from 0.95 to 1.0.x.

I’ve a fine running 0.9.5 installation. When I tried upgrading to 1.0.1 I got two error messages. One is “your configuration file is invalid”. Sometimes it works then but after this I got the error “ERROR: could not establish database connection”. Configuration data is checked a hundred times and right.

Today I tried upgrading to 1.0.2 same problem. Turned again everything back and updated to 0.9.6 -> everything works fine.

See it in action here: http://www.celtic-rock.de/bbpress

Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

Try this?

I currently have the function members online on my BBpress forum but it only gives me member’s name with links. I’d like to be able to output the member’s avatars, or at least getting some function do display a certain set of random avatars of members with links to their profile.

Is one of these ideas possible with some function or script? Thanks in advance.

I just installed bbPM and it works perfectly using the latest install of BBPress.

[cTubes]

Using version 1.0x

I have install step 1 successfully completed. When I hit ‘goto Step 2’ it tells me “Oh dear! bbPress is already installed.”

and I have no way going to install Step 3 – site settings. That’s where my problem starts.

When I browse the install directory: ctubeslabs.com/bp/ I get a rudimentary login screen where it tells me that http://ctubeslabs.com/forum/ can not be found. No wonder, this should be …/bp/

but where can I configure the forum path? I searched through all PHP files but did not find this config value.

I am stuck, thanks for any help,

You would need to iframe it to do that. A basic include would not work in that way.

Hello,

I saw a somewhat similar post on here about integrating bbpress into wordpress pages, but what I want to do is relatively simpler than that.

Basically all I want to do is to “embed” a given bbpress forum into a static webpage. I’d like to not have the top header and all of the navigational links appear, but I’ll take what I can get for now ; P

Using the <php include> tag I was able to embed a forum into a webpage, but the problem is that the area I want to embed into is 500px wide. The bbpress forum is inside of that area but also spills out onto the rest of the page. The php include is being placed into a <div> area and I want the width fixed while the height changes based on how much content is inside it.

My code looks like:

<?php include(‘http://example.com/forums/forum.php?id=12&#8217;); ?>

I’m sure the best way to do what I want would be something like:

<?php include(‘../forums/forum.php?id=12’/main_forum); ?>

but I’m not too sure.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

I want to display login, pass of BBP in WP.

Here is my post:

have you found another solution?

I’m using bbPM and loving it. If you go with this – follow directions you may need to add .htacess line and check file permissions on bbPM if you have any trouble getting it to work…I also set permalinks in bbpress to name or number and added my theme look to the privatemessages.php. Very Nice.

[chrishajer]

What version of bbPress and WordPress did you integrate?

This plugin used to work with 0.9 to restore keymaster access:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/fix-admin-access/

[chrishajer]

My guess is that it’s a problem with the permalink setup. Try turning off permalinks in the bbPress admin and see it the profile links work then.

Please post more information about your setup. WordPress and bbPress version, if you created an .htaccess file with rewrite rules, post a link to your forums. Thanks

Sorry, I was substituting pseudo-variable names in there: $site_title is the site title from the admin (“bbPress Support Forums” here) and the $topic_title is the topic title (this topic has “All RSS Feeds Broken?”). So, here, the RSS description is

bbPress Support Forums » Topic: All RSS Feeds Broken?

.......................^

and in a 1.0.1 installation it is

bbPress Support Forums Topic: All RSS Feeds Broken?

There is no raquo in the 1.0.1 installation, and the feed validator is complaining about that one character.

I went with Inove in the end. Turned out pretty good:
