no, i’m not loading bbpress on a wordpress page…i’ve created an identical theme for bbpress

[Marcomail]

have you intasllaed the plugin in wordpress for cookie integration ? And after this, have you modify the wp-config.php in the wordpress root folder with the COOKIE_DOMAIN and COOKIEPATH ?

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

I didn’t get it. Are you loading bbPress on a WordPress page? In any case, WP functions can be accessed on WP pages. Please elaborate.

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

I didn’t get it. If you are not using the same databases, then how come the users are being shared? Are you sure on this?

[double_d]

Ashfame,

Thanks for replying. Here’s some more details that might resolve the problem after reading your tutorial.

I have WordPress and bbPress installed on separate databases. I know bbPress is connecting to the WP user tables because when I add a user I see it added on the bbPress side.

I did not change the default table prefixs for WordPress or bbPress per your tutorial.

On the bbPress WordPress Integration page I have all the fields filled out except the following:

– secure auth cookie salt

– WP MU Primary blog ID

– User database “user” table

– User database “user meta” table

Let me know if think the above items maybe the cause. Thanks.

[Marcomail]

yes, but i’m not using wp-blog-header…i have integrated bbpress in the layout without using the WP environment loaded

sorry but my english is very bad

[kishoremylavarapu]

can anybody please help me..

[Marcomail]

Do you know i could check in bbpress if a user is in a specific wordpress user category ? I must create a new user category in wordpress, and i’d use this in bbpress.

for example

if user_id in category=example_category

make this…

else

I integrated my site the other day. Here’s a few things that helped me when developing my bbPress theme.

1. Point its CSS to the corresponding WP themes CSS so that there’s a common stylesheet between them. For example: http://mysite.com/wp-content/themes/mytheme/style.css

2. Do the same thing with images. For example in your bbPress theme use http://mysite.com/wp-content/themes/mytheme/image/image.jpg

3. As mentioned above you will need to duplicate content from WP theme. I find that if I cram everything before the forum content into header.php and everything after into footer.php it clears up the rest of the bbPress templates for me to modify as I wish.

Hope this helps.

Count me among those users who would very much appreciate having the automatic upgrade functionality built into bbPress – either as a plugin or as core.

(And, I’m loving bbPress 1.0.x!)

[Marcomail]

i’ve solved partially this problem moving bbpress in a subdomain

[Geezerjim]

I’m “pressing” on, if only for the bbPress (and MediaWiki) knowledge I’ll gain. I’ve been starting with the information here.

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

Its always hard to track what you missed as compared to a fresh procedure. If you are doing fresh installations of both then I would want you to take a look at my tutorial that I wrote yesterday : http://blog.ashfame.com/2009/07/integrate-bbpress-10-with-wordpress-28/

and if they already hold data, then we will try to trace the cause and get it fixed.

Hope that helps!

Hi friends.

I have a phpBB 3.0.5 forum.Now i want to convert it to bbpress.I have my database.Can any body please help me ..how can i do it ..

waiting for your reply..

thanks in advance..

[Marcomail]

I’ve moved bbpress in a subdomain, i’ve change the url of the forum….now what i must doing ?

[Gautam]

This shouldn’t be the case. However, check the topic.php of your theme and see if there is the currect loop. It should look like this:

<?php foreach ($posts as $bb_post) : $del_class = post_del_class(); ?>

<li id="post-<?php post_id(); ?>"<?php alt_class('post', $del_class); ?>>

<?php bb_post_template(); ?>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

And did you follow the steps to upgrade written here – https://bbpress.org/documentation/upgrading/

[pulk99]

hi,

I upgraded from bbpress-0.9.0.4 to bbpress-1.0.1, it all went smooth, the only problem is now, that the post content isn’t showing up, I tried also with the original theme, no change.

In the database the content is still there.

edit: and also in the bb-admin I can see the post content.

I did the upgrade, before on another installation, and it all worked out, so I’m a bit clueless now, what the problem is in this case.

I’m having login problems with my WordPress and bbPress integration. I have to login to both programs. However, when I log out of either program, I log the other program out.

I have WordPress 2.8.1 and bbPress 1.0 installed.

WordPress is installed on the main directory (i.e., my-site-url)

bbpress is installed as a subdirectory (i.e., my-site-url/bbpress)

I’ve checked to make sure the four keys in the wp-config and bb-config files match up.

I’ve checked to make sure the auth_salt and logged_in_salt keys match up between WordPress and bbPress

The cookies generated seem to be correct.

It creates a wordpress logged in cookie (e.g., wordpress_logged_in_f1f3…a00a)

with a path of /

It creates five wordpress cookies (e.g., wordpress_f1f3…a00a)

with the following paths

/wp-content/plugins

/wp-admin

/bbpress/my-plugins

/bbpress/bb-plugins

/bbpress/bb-admin

Since I’m setting up my site, I have uninstalled and reinstalled the programs with the same problem. Perhaps, there is a step I’m missing. Any ideas to correct this would be appreciated!

[azcs]

i just put in the new bbpress

it all works well apart from when i go into my posts i get this message

Fatal error: Class ‘BB_User’ not found in /home/a2583606/public_html/forum/bb-plugins/Gravatar/Gravatar.php on line 36

i hope that someone can help fix this, my forums website is http://www.forum.azcs.co.uk

thanks

If you have wordpress installed in the same database with wp_ as prefix, then use bb_ as prefix for bbpress, else it would conflict with wordpress.

[n8kindt]

when on the user page in the admin section i checked ‘bozos only’ and clicked filter and got this error msg:

Warning: array_intersect() [function.array-intersect]: Argument #1 is not an array in /home/gurrlieg/public_html/gurrliegirl.info/html/bbpress/bb-plugins/bozo.php on line 348

this occurred with an empty search field and the role selection box left at ‘role’

[Gautam]

As you have bbpress installed in forum directory, thats why its showing one more forum

if you have installed it in example.com, then only one forum would be shown

(though you already know this)

To fix this, you might do this (NOTE: I have not tested it, nor do I know if it might have a side effect on anything else, and this change will also be vanished when you upgrade bbpress):

Open bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php

Go to line number 711

This would be written there:

$link = bb_get_uri('forum/' . $forum->$column . $page, null, $context);

Change forum/ to category/ or anything you want.

[Marcomail]

I have installed bbpress in the folder /forum/ , so at the moment every forum pages have this url http://www.example.com/forum/forum/example-forum

do you think it’s possible delete one /forum/ from the url ?

[circulartrend]

Hm, thats what I thought. I was hoping they would have added in a plugin where users could change their own name like in 1.0 of bbPress. I think I installed that one you linked me, but it didnt do anything.

[MercedesAMG]

On clicking install it says

I use wp2.9.1 and stable bbpress 101

here is what i get

OOPS

BBpress is already installed

maybe u should upgrade

All I did was click the install button once

then went back to look at the step three settings and changed the advanced database settings to be wp_ instead of empty

everything else went according to hoyle
