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.
Any word on whether this converter works for phpBB3 v3.0.5 and bbpress v1.0? (asking before trying!)
Thanks,
~Andrew~
I think gautam2011 means outputting the path to bbPress’ plugin URL directory.
Is there a constant variable like WP_PLUGIN_URL?
I’m looking for this too! I’m porting a WP plugin over.
[EDIT]
Found it! It’s in bb-settings.php
The variable is BB_PLUGIN_URL.
Simple as that! 
Thanks r-a-y, thanks Jason_JM…
I am now convinced that I need to go straight to WP MU 2.7.1 instead of upgrading to regualr WP 2.8
The thing is that I have a running site with bbPress alpha 6 integrated and didn’t figure out the best way to switch to a WP MU + BuddyPress + bbPress 1.0 configuration.
Anyway, you’re right I should make another post for it, but where? WordPressforum? bbPress forum (here)? BuddyPress forum?
The biggest trouble I am having now is to figure out how can I test all thenew configuration and set up leaving the existing site running and than switch to the new congfig, when I see that everything works properly. Copy the existing into a subfolder and with anew database? Mmmh…
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.
Given the development speed of bbPress (slow) this is not unreasonable. We seem to be fairly split between 6 and 18 months, and I’d split the diff at 12 months, if it comes down too it.
I have some questions about translation files.
1 Who can upload .po and .mo files?
2 How we can report “bugs” in translations?
3 Who decide is this a bug or not? Some specific knowledge is needed, but http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/pot/tags/ is the official place for download …
Yeah, I believe it’s advisable to use the same database name for an integrated wordpress/bbpress install. bbPress does support using a database name different than an integrated wordpress install, but then your server would have to connect to two different databases (instead of reusing a single connection) when running bbPress. For that reason, I would advise using the same database name.
Sorry Jason_JM, I’m not on SSL or subdomains.
+1 on WPMU 2.7.1, BuddyPress 1.0.2 and bbPress 1.0.
No issues… yet!
If anyone can get WPMU 2.7.1 + BB1.0 working with:
– SSL
– Subdomains
– main Blog is the root of the mu install
Let me know because out of the box I don’t think it’s possible. What am I doing wrong?
Is is advisable to use the shared database between wordpress and bbpress?
At the moment, WP and WPMU are separately maintained. But there are plans to merge the two codebases into one, don’t expect that in the next couple of months. More like next year sometime.
So if you’re planning on using BuddyPress in a few months, I would recommend getting acquainted with WPMU 2.7.1 since it works with the latest version of BuddyPress. This is just my advice, but I wouldn’t upgrade to WP 2.8.
Moving over from WP to WPMU is not that straightforward. You have to do a number of things in order to get things right.
Since this is straying away from the original topic, create a new thread about this and others can chime in.
Ok, yeah… The thing is that I am running a regular WP 2.7.1 and I wanted to upgrade to 2.8.
Now, snce I know that in a couple of monthe I’ll need BuddyPress integration to my site, my question is: should I upgrade to regular 2.8 and than switch to WP MU 2.7.1 to integrate BuddyPress.
Actually, I am confused by the fact that WP is now 2.8 while WP MU is 2.7.1, and don’t know if it’s a good idea to go from WP2.8 to WP MU 2.7.1.
Otherwise, I post this here, because I got a bbPress forum up (alpha 6) with the current site, and wanted to upgrade to WP 2.8 and bbPress 1.0…
I hope sometime soon WP, WP MU, bbPress, BuddyPress will install and work one in another in an easier way.
@bb-gian
It totally depends on your needs.
If you need WPMU for multi-user blogs now, then upgrade.
If you don’t need multi-user blogs now, then don’t upgrade.
i need that,i’m running a punbb1.2 forum.
You can submit plugins here:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/forum/requests
Once they’re approved, you’ll get a bbPress URL for your plugin.
