This doesn’t solve the other problems like.. Underlining, Stricking the text, font size increasing etc. And in the links that we add using TinyMCE editor gives an extra quote in the resulting form content link!
I am using bbpress 1.0 and there is a file by name functions.bb-forums.php inside bb-includes folder. I opened it and saw these codes
function bb_allowed_tags() {
$tags = array(
'a' => array(
'href' => array(),
'title' => array(),
'rel' => array()),
'blockquote' => array('cite' => array()),
'br' => array(),
'code' => array(),
'pre' => array(),
'em' => array(),
'strong' => array(),
'ul' => array(),
'ol' => array(),
'li' => array()
);
I added 'p' => array(), to solve the <p> tag problem.
But all other problems regarding underline, stricking the text, adding image also doesn’t work(I have installed allow-image plugin), font size increasing also doesn’t work.
Please help.. and if possible get back to me at satish at technotip DOT org [ Its .ORG and not .COM ].
Thanks
I see you have finally converted to the new admin style… congratulations!
It looks really good (except the green buttons in some places). Thanks. 
hi there.
I successfully integrated wpmu 2.7.1 with bbpress 1.0. all works as its supposed to, except for some small questions/problems:
– the forums are located here: http://zice.ro/forum/ so basically bbpress is isntalled in a folder called forum
– the links to the forums looks weird, notice the link contains forum twice? i.e. http://zice.ro/forum/forum/pluginuri
– I checked my .htaccess inside the forum folder: http://pastebin.com/f3b96dbc9 notice the rewrite base says: RewriteBase /forum/ I tried changing it to / but that doesn’t help. What is it supposed to look like?
– besides why do almost all rewrites inside that file have an additional forum inside? i.e. RewriteRule ^page/([0-9]+)/?$ /forum/index.php?page=$1 [L,QSA] is that automatically taken from the isntallation folder?
– how could I get rid of that additional forum? Looks stupid 
– bbpress sees all my registered users, but claims they have no role. I’d realy hate to have to manually edit all users and give them memebr privileges. shouldn’t there be a way to automatically promote all existing wpmu users to bbpress members?
– I tried the DEEP INTEGRAATION, but still, even if using <?php wp_head(); ?> inside mh header.php doesn’t trigger all wordpress plugins that should be triggered when calling the wp_head – is there a way to autoamte this?
It appears, that the “admin” issue is also SSL related.
In admin.php:8 bb_auth is called with implied, default scheme “auth”.
However, later on in functions.bb-pluggable.php:145, the following code is encountered:
if ( is_ssl() ) {
$scheme = ‘secure_auth’;
} else {
$scheme = ‘auth’;
}
Which, given that is_ssl() returns true, will make the validation fail and user bounced out of admin page.
For now, I replaced ‘secure_auth’ with ‘auth’ in ssl branch as well, which appears to be a reasonable hack for me.
Where do you set a post to sticky? I can’t seem to find it (bbpress 1.0)
By the way, my setup is fully under SSL.
I also changed the install directory to “bbpress”.
I discovered the reason for my first problem (line 30 in bb-login.php):
Up here:
$re == /bbpress/
$uri == https://host/bbpress/
if ( is_ssl() && 0 === strpos( $re, ‘/’ ) ) {
$re = bb_get_uri( $re , null, BB_URI_CONTEXT_HEADER );
}
Down here:
$re == https://host/bbpress/bbpress/
Changing first argument to bb_get_uri from $re to NULL solves the initial login redirect problem for me.
Still looking for the admin link issue.
BB_PLUGIN_URL is useless as there are several places a user can put a plugin. Most users also don’t know they aren’t supposed to use bb-plugins and make my-plugins because the powers that be refuse to ship bbpress with a pre-made my-plugins directory.
After much trial and error and problems reported by windows users, I figured this out:
$url=bb_get_option('uri').trim(str_replace(array(trim(BBPATH,"/\"),"\"),array("","/"),dirname(__FILE__)),' /\').'/';
$path=rtrim(dirname(__FILE__),' /\').'/';
Where $url is the full uri to the local plugin’s directory (ie. if you have an image in there, that’s the url to it)
The $path is the local storage path that will work in both windows and linux.
It may look like these functions can be simplified but if you do that, I guarantee you’ll break it under one environment or another.
You can install a pulldown which enables your visitors to switch the language of the interface:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbpress-language-switcher/
As long as all the languages are LTR, you should be ok I think? If some of the languages you’d like to support are RTL, it gets a lot trickier…
I just installed bbpress 1.0 on http://www.fifaforums.com . Given that I am likely to have visitors who speak just about every language, I would like to have different forums for each language. Can I do this on a single installation of bbpress or am I going to have to install multiple versions? Any help would be appreciated.
0.9 was the product of a few years of development and debugging 0.7 and 0.8
It powers several thousand forums. It’s stable.
1.0 is NOT just 0.9 with more bug fixes. It is a 50% different program with a 90 degree change of direction made suddenly by Matt deciding to make bbPress use the WordPress core (ala BackPress) in January 2008. It was re-engineered in just a year after a massive amount of work mostly by Sam. The alpha, beta and RC stages for 1.0 were rushed, apparently on purpose in some cases.
Hey, I’m not for adding unnecessary bloat, but with Gravatar already integrated with bbPress it makes sense for a little information for users under the “Edit Profile” section in the core download. After all, both bbPress and Gravatar are Automattic products.
Maybe simply something under the “Edit Profile” screen saying:
“Your profile picture is randomly selected. To pick it yourself visit Gravatar.com”
…when the “Show avatars” option is selected under “Avatar display” with the Gravatar site hyperlinked. BLAM. DONE. THIS IS ALL I AM SUGGESTING!
@ryanhellyer: BINGO. You said it (and get my point).
@chrishajer: That’s an obvious option (editing the template myself) but it got me thinking: how many people have run into the same issue of having tons of site users asking ‘How do I select my picture?’ ‘I can’t seem to find out to change my picture?’ I’ve only been running bbPress sites for a short time but already this has become the #1 question asked. I would be absolutely shocked if others who runs bbPress forum didn’t get asked about profile pictures all the time.
@Ipstenu: Initially I thought Identicon or Wavatars etc would do the job but still got people asking how to change their picture to something else. Think about it: when someone signs up for ANY message board where they are supplied a little profile picture (and there are “Edit Profile” customization options available), wouldn’t they logically think they would have the freedom to select their own picture? It’s a VERY basic part of editing the profile.
@REST: I understand the argument that this is what plugins is for, but let’s face it, profile pictures are already hotwired into this product. So is Gravatar support. I’m not talking about adding a new service, but simply directions inside under the profile editing options for folks to better use these already existing services. If you were unfamiliar with bbPress and signed up on a message board where you were given a blank or random profile picture, when you clicked “Edit Profile” wouldn’t you expect to find something to assist you?
Logically speaking, wouldn’t someone think there would be information under the profile page re: how to change their profile picture? When users click “Edit” there is information on customizing pretty much every basic aspect of your profile (location, interests, display name, etc) but this.
I agree 100% with the comments of ryanhellyer & frooyo.
Been casually following bbPress for the past year (WordPress is sooooo a Gateway drug to other Automattic projects) but the impending release of 1.0 and the various RCs pushed me to finally jump in and start really fooling around with the software. Couldn’t be happier. God bless bbPress pioneers like _ck_, Sam, and everyone else for the plethora of killer plugins and themes.
Totally understand where people are coming from re: 1.0’s stability compared to 0.9 but it would be much more productive for attention to be focused on 1.0 instead of 0.9. After all, folks using/testing/tweaking 1.0 is how all the bugs, plugin compatibility, and various stability issues will be worked out!
Exciting times are ahead for bbPress and 1.0 is the future. The more focus on 1.0 the better in the grand scheme of things. I’m going to get razzed but 6 months doesn’t seem unreasonable (or even 3 months), especially since everyone has known for quite some time that 1.0 was going to be coming out. Let’s embrace the future: 1.0!
Correct.
In wpmu: define both force sll keys (admin an the other one I forget)
In bbp: define force ssl login and user forms
Make sure your not using adminssl plugin (at first?)
Independently of each other that is how you would enable use of ssl, as long as your webserver is ready to accept and configured correctly to use https.
It’s integration where things break and you’ll need three patches.
Time for bed…Zz…

@Jason_JM,
Have a question for you.
Your SSL is for login and admin areas only right?
I’ll have to keep track of what you’ve done, as I’ll probably want to secure the admin area as well.

@bb-gian,
Post in the “Installation” area here – https://bbpress.org/forums/forum/installation
Or in the BuddyPress forums – https://buddypress.org/forums/
bbpress trac ticket for wp_admin_cookie_path issue when using wpmu.
https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1136
Also, I had to put into my bb-config.php the below so that logging in via bbpress will allow login to wpmu admin page.
// Not defining below will not create /wp-admin cookie in current bbpress 1.0. Required for SSL.
// Guess this could be another bug as well.
$bb->wp_admin_cookie_path=’/wp-admin’;
It’s not my “home” machine, so to say.
It’s a test server running quite a few things and sitting on a local domain with working dns.
Apache/2.2.11 (Unix) DAV/2 mod_ssl/2.2.11 OpenSSL/0.9.8h mod_auth_kerb/5.4 mod_python/3.3.1 Python/2.6.2 SVN/1.6.1 PHP/5.2.9-pl2-gentoo with Suhosin-Patch configured
Platform is gentoo-amd64.
Trac Submission and patch for 2.7.1 if you demand SSL. Requires patch to integration plugin as well.
https://trac.mu.wordpress.org/ticket/1014
I don’t believe the Allow Images plugin works with 1.0 right now. Here’s the plugin:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/allow-images/page/4/
I just read through the comments there that someone posted a fix, but it looks like it completely bypassed security.
Sam mentioned that he’d be making an official bbPress Codex the week after 1.0 came out… so maybe we’ll get an official one soon.
I found the bug. Trac ticket submitted. Dang hard one to find.
I have SSL working back and forth, forth and back etc…………
Track patch + integration patch required.
I have wasted my weekend on this one.
– Jason Giedymin
Simply installing wiki software does not a codex make.
It’s been tried a few times before and no one has taken any time to do documentation, especially on a slow 3rd party server that can disappear at any time.
It took WordPress a few years and only after 2.0 did volunteers finally get some documentation done, I expect it will be the same for bbPress.
Proposed Patch for integration plugin:
function bbpress_integration_set_bb_cookies( $uri, $expire = false, $expiration = ”, $user_id = ” )
{
if ( !$uri_parsed = @parse_url( $uri ) ) {
return false;
}
$secure = false; //Default no auth
if ( force_ssl_login() || force_ssl_admin() )
{
$secure = true; //Will create secure flagged cookies
}
…
(I’m still going through my debug)
vBulletin allows you to have a simple “Buddy List” which links to a user’s profile. I think this would be a nice simple plug-in.
Hi all, using bbPress 1.0, how do I add an image to a topic?
Using <img src=”path_to_image” /> just displays that code on the topic.
