I don’t see what the problem is here. If you like 1.0 and like bleeding edge, use 1.0

No one is asking for a single new feature in 0.9, just if there is a security issue found, release a fix. Such fixes usually take a trivial amount of time to produce once a problem emerges.

Some people who make money charging by the hour enjoy the idea of constant changes, upgrades, rebuilding things from scratch, etc. because it keeps them busy and in business. Other people have better things to do, and having made a significant investment in time to setup a working forum with bbPress over the past few years or they don’t have the extra performance required to run 1.0, can just give up all the new “features” in 1.0 and just keep using 0.9 while they plan a migration in their spare time.

All I am saying is if a security problem is found with 0.9 it should be addressed until the end of 2010. Based on WP and bbPress history that will probably happen once or twice a year. Otherwise feel free to let 0.9 gather dust.

Something else to consider is now that 1.0 is based on the WordPress core (ala BackPress) it is potentially vulnerable to any new attack vector that is found in WordPress (including at least one serious issue currently in the wild) while bbPress 0.9 might remain immune.

@vlovers , would you kindly share how you fixed it? Thanks a bunch

bbPress has several fathers. Matt did a lot of the early work… and Michael (mdawaffe) took over for a while too:

Some people simply won’t be able to use 1.0 on shared hosts with several plugins. Their host will terminate their account for excessive resource use

WordPress is much more resource heavy than bbPress in this regard. This is the only place I think we might have a use for an output caching plugin like wp-super-cache.

[johnhiler]

There are some tips on how to do just that here!

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-to-add-different-style-to-the-first-post

[abc12345]

I resolved this problem by adding “./” to the file names “admin-header.php” and “admin-footer.php” in the file /bbpressforumname/bb-admin/includes/functions.bb-admin.php. They appear on lines 6 and 13 of that file. The modified version of the first 14 lines of the file should read…

<?php

function bb_get_admin_header()

{

do_action( ‘bb_admin-header.php’ );

include( ‘./admin-header.php’ );

do_action( ‘bb_get_admin_header’ );

}

function bb_get_admin_footer()

{

do_action( ‘bb_admin-footer.php’ );

include( ‘./admin-footer.php’ );

}

perhaps this could be added as a bug fix for 1.0.1.

update to my above post : I finally somehow solved it myself…. Thanx to bbpress community for presenting wonderful piece of coding summarized into the poetry of bbpress forum…

What cookie plugin of wordpress do you have installed ? You could use only one login form like me, i’m using only the wordpress login form.

[Josh Leuze]

I got it to work, the converter did a great job, thanks wmnasef!

I was trying to do the conversion on fairly standard VPS with a typical LAMP stack, I’m not really sure why it didn’t work on there.

But after that I tried the conversion on my Media Temple Grid Service account and it worked fine. (The forum is quite small, 7000 posts) So if someone else runs into a similar problem, try a different web host or a local web server, maybe you’ll have better luck too!

I ran into a similar issue with paging. I forget how I fixed it – I think maybe I switched to this plugin for pagination?

[clarklab]

I found an answer here ( https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/check-for-topic-pages-gt-1 ) that works well enough. It included a nonlinking page 1, and a next button, but I’ve hid those and only show the extra pages.

[smi1ey]

So was this issue supposed to have been resolved in the 1.0 final release? I just installed it and am having the exact issue. When I login to bbPress, it logs me out of WordPress. I have searched several posts, and ensured that the cookie AUTH keys are all the same in WP and bbPress config files. The home site URL is the same as well. I even installed the WP bbPress Integration plugin as recommended, and added their extra code to the wp-config file.

Anyone else still experiencing thing? I hate to bring up an old topic, so if it’s been resolved somehow, lemme know!

[clarklab]

Ah, I am using 1.0 final. Is there a master list of template tags / functions somewhere like they’ve got for WP? In WP any time I need something I can usually just go track it down in their codex but with bbPress I always feel lost. I see on that page it says to use the topic page links function. Where can I get some info on that?

[vlovers]

can some1 help me with cookies integration between wordpress 2.8 and bbpress 1.0 ? user logged on forum is not logged on blog…. I correctly set SECURE_AUTH_KEY, LOGGED_IN_KEY, AUTH_KEY, auth_salt, logged_in_salt……. Only thing I could n’t set during integration is secure auth” cookie salt as I can’t find this anywhere neither in wp-config.php nor in options.php of wordpress settings…….. I have also used bbpress integration plugin for wordpress and copied the text suggested by this plugin in wp-config.php

[johnhiler]

I believe that functionality is built into version 1.0.

Here is the plugin version, for version 0.9:

Which bbPress version are you using?

Sam mentioned yesterday it would be aut0-generated sometime today:

The pot will be auto-generated within 24 hours and will be here:

It is possible to make a theme that does not use tables. bbPress is very flexible with themes. I am not aware if there exists one though…

But it uses tables by default because the list of topics and forums is in fact tabular data. I think it has nothing to do with table-based web-design of the 90’s (if that’s your concern).

[Marcomail]

i see i don’t have the cookie for forum/bb-admin

instead if i login on bbpress it’s all ok

[Burt Adsit]

I just successfully integrated bbpress, wpmu 2.7.1 and buddypress group forums. Cookies and everything. I had given up on doing this with anything other than bbpress alpha-6. Worked like a charm right out of the box.

I’ll be damned. I take back all the grumbling and complaining and whining. I’m also canceling my enrollment in advanced particle physics classes that I thought were a previous requirement.

Nice job to all involved!

When the localization files will be available for 1.0 final?

If i login on wordpress i must log out and re-login in bbpress to access to control panel

This is a good manual way of upgrading below.

– Create a new database, call it wordpress2 or 3 or whatever. Make sure it is different from the database in use.

– Choose Option A or B Below:

Option A

– Backup (because you’ll be overwriting the old files) your http folder the server points to.

– If your httpdocs folder is called: [httpdocs] then: mv [httpdocs] [httpdocs_backup]

Option B

– Create a new directory, with correct permissions.

– Tell your webserver to serve from this new location

– Install wordpress and bbpress and assign it to use the new wordpress database.

– Get all functionality working, like integration plug-ins etc…

– Once it all works, backup the httpdocs folder. [tar -cvjf httpdocs.bz2 httpdocs] This is a good step as you can now take these working configs and stick it into a new upgraded wordpress.

– Go back and restore the old wordpress because now you will upgrade.

– Install wordpress first. Install using the Old database name, when it asks you to upgrade the database, do so.

– Install bbpress, do the same as above.

– take your Config file from the test run above, and copy them into your upgrade.

Personally, I do a complete backup on a schedule and just manually run the script again for when I do an upgrade. This script will backup all my http/https folders, my server configs, and my database all in one shot. If anything gets messed up I just do a restore and It’s like starting from scratch. No matter how messed up things get. You might want to think about that. If there is enough demand I will gladly publish these helpful scripts.

In theory yes.

If wordpress sets the cookies, the part where bbpress reads them is not stored in those two files.
