    That’s just adding in the link in your theme.

    Seriously :) You can edit your header.php to have this, no plugins needed.

    Howdy…I’ve searched high and low and only find help that is 2 years old. I need to put a navigation bar on my BBPress page so people can link back to my WP site. I can’t believe I can’t find a plugin for this. Or maybe I need a new theme (There don’t seem to be many)? The top of this forum has a navigation bar. I just need something like that. Thanks!

    Has anyone found/experimented with creating a plugin that would allow users to add friends like facebook or areforum.org/forums/?

    This would be a great addition.

    #15140

    Running:

    WPMU + Latest RC of BBPress, User tables integrated, v1 of Integration Plug (on wp side) installed. Latest RC of bbpress was installed directory fresh but over an existing bbpress 9.x (latest stable) tables.

    Tests Passed:

    – Logging into each site individually works fine. Can’t log out without errors (understandably as there is a cookie issue see below).

    Tests Failed:

    – Log into bb-press via https

    – Log into wp blog.

    – Should go to Admin.

    Debug:

    – Stepped through to find wp was looking for “wordpress_sec_[long hash string]” cookie. Thinking it was ‘mal formed’ it redirects to the wp login.

    Question:

    – Why would the “wordpress_sec” cookie not be created by bb_press?

    I will be stepping through the bbpress code but wanted to put a heads up in the forums if maybe someone already knows whats going on.

    Btw Is there a developer forum?

    Is there a simple way to insert the first post of the topic with an individual command? And then start the loop with the other posts, starting with the second one (as the first post is the question and the following posts are the answers)?

    Just to be clear about what I want to achieve. Here is the site I am trying to make work:

    http://www.test.rimava.sk/bbpress/topic.php?id=2

    I want the first post to have e.g. green background, different question mark icon, while all the other posts remain as they are now.

    Silly me, a few more minutes of searching and I turned up an answer:

    I can’t seem to get the Pretty Permalink Type setting to work. When I change it to name based, none of the pages threads/forums/etc will load. After some reading, it seems like I need to make an htaccess file and fill it with some rules.

    Are these officially provided anywhere? I found some in a thread from a couple years ago (http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/permalinks-1) but they don’t seem to work. What exactly do I need to do to make my permalinks work?

    I’ve ported a few plugins and themed bbPress and built from scratch many WordPress plugins, and to be honest I wouldn’t try and port that plugin. There are way to many unknowns to consider when caching and it’s just a lot of work.

    Also, I don’t think there are enough positives to warrant the headache inducing long nights that will cause just for the insignificant amount of resources being saved since so many users are going to be logged in. Unless your forum is ranked in the top 100 of all forums on the internet, you’re not getting enough traffic to go through that kind of trouble. You’re better off upgrading your server IMHO.

    I have not been a huge forum user in the past, but since I started, I came up with this idea that would seem to have helped with the usability of forums in general, especially for me, a visual noobie.

    The idea has to do with changing the layout from a linear conversation format (with replies sequentially down the page) to a round format (with individuals’ avatars or colors in a circle, above the fold, as though they’re around a campfire). Let’s say there are five “discussers” on a forum topic. The PHP would generate five shapes around a “campfire”. Each would have its own color, and if an avatar is available, there would be an avatar in the shape. Also within the shape would be a (series of) number(s) separated by commas. The numbers represent the post number. For example, the first user would have a 1. and a 3. and the second user would have a 2. and a 4. because they’re talking back and forth.

    At the bottom right of the screen would be a “forward” button and a “back” button.

    At the bottom (or, if there’s room, in the middle of the “campfire”) would be the actual comments of one of the users. The comments shown would depend on how far you have progressed through your reading of the forum by having pushed the “forward” and “back” buttons. Only one comment would show at a time. As you progress, the individual’s shape whose post you are reading will be highlighted or glowing or otherwise visually apparent. It would be even user-friendlier if you could also click on any number (within someone’s shape) and go directly to that particular post.

    Are you getting the vision? I think this is a really cool idea. Yeah, it would be some pretty intense coding. bbpress is a wonderful app, and it would be awesome if it paved the way for a new way of presenting forums.

    (I understand that if too many users posted onto one topic, things could get hairy. Perhaps the PHP would stop once the threshold limit is reached, and then below would resume the traditional linear forum layout from then on in that topic.)

    What do you all think?

    I got pretty close with wmnasef’s script, but I think I am having a problem similar to gavinj77’s.

    SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

    You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘opinions on current political questions.’, ‘0’, ‘2’, ’48’, ‘235’)’ at line 1 [1064]

    I’m trying to convert an install of phpBB 3.0.4 to bbPress 0.9.0.5, a small amount of data did transfer over to bbPress before I received the error.

    I tried to download matiaspunx’s edited file and I was also unable to.

    Does anyone know exactly what I have to edit to “use the addslash function”, or happen to have a copy of this file they would be kind enough to share with me?

    Does anyone know a website or another forum where I can find a reasonably priced bbpress theme programmer? Having used a lot of wordpress programmers I know that not all programmers are created equal. I really want to find someone who has coded quite a few bbpress themes. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate!

    You cannot run WP or bbPress smoothly on Dreamhost, moving to a real host should instantly cut your page render time in half. I always recommend against Dreamhost because they use NFS (remote network storage) instead of local drives attached to the machine. This allows them to keep costs down and give away oodles of space but it makes anything with a lot of files to load very slow and impossible to cache. bbPress 1.0 has even more files than 0.9 so the problem is magnified even worse.

    As far as your other needs, the policy here is that you should post a way for people to contact you, usually an email address and then we close the topic. If you want people to contact you via your contact form on your website you can request that instead.

    There are extremely few bbPress pros for hire right now, but you can see my post here for some ideas:

    Hiya feast. I like the look of your forum, though something’s not straight – can’t figure out what it is..! ;)

    I’m not a bbPress expert, but an idea occurred to me. As you might not find someone to do everything you want, why not offer a price for each individual piece of work? There’s a post about it at https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/s-amp-s-for-your-help#post-37270

    Neat idea xtint – I like it. I’m not a bbPress hotshot by any means, and am also busy with my own forum set-up, but I’ll keep tabs on this one. There are some superb coders in the forum, and I’m sure you’ll get some pointers soon enough.

    Sam, from the BBPress Trac (https://trac.bbpress.org/timeline) I see you are hard at work.

    You thinking about a possible RC4 before 1.0?

    You are doing a great job, absolutely thrilled with BBPress!

    Looking for a bbPress expert who could help us tie our blog entries to

    appear on the forums via Bbsync and fix a couple of bugs on the

    forums.

    http://www.feastoffools.net/community

    ••• Troubleshoot and optimise our forums. Right now Dreamhost is forcing us to upgrade our services because they claim our bbpress forums are taking too much of a server hit. Looking for someone to help us optimize our forums.

    ••• Upgrade to the latest version of Bbpress. Right now we’re at .9

    ••• Install BBsync

    http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbsync/

    new blog post, this post will be turned into a new topic in your

    forums. Replies can be made to the topic. Comments made through the wp

    comments form will also be shown as replies to the corresponding

    thread. All comments/replies will show up automagically in wordpress,

    too.

    ••• Code Buttons:

    http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbcode-buttons/

    Automatically adds an easy access button toolbar above the post

    textarea to allow quick tags in BBcode. This is an enhanced

    replacement for the Comment Quicktags plugin. No template editing

    required.

    Requires the BBcode-Lite plugin (or some other kind of BBcode support).

    Some buttons will only appear if the tag is supported (ie. img, center)

    ••• Upload Image Files / Attachments

    http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/

    This may not work with the version of bbpress and wordpress that are

    compatible. Right now I’m waiting for bbpress to get to full 1.0 to

    upgrade both to WordPress 2.7 and Bbpress 1.0, which my guess will be

    in the next 6-8 months, but hopefully sooner.

    ••• Post Notification

    http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/post-notification/

    If you have a topic in your favorites and there will be a new post to

    this topic it sends you an email. Simply upload and it does its job.

    •••• Bb Socialize

    Add social network links to form/user profiles.

    Allows you to set and display your social media profiles in your

    public forum profile. As administrator, you can select which sites

    will be supported using simple management panel.

    http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbsocialize/

    – Show quoted text –

    ••• Search problematic

    Also users are complaining about the search function not working well,

    is there anyway to troubleshoot this or enhance the search inside the

    forums?

    best

    bbPress relies on the database to tell it what plugins are active. If your db is having trouble and rolling back to an old set of data somehow it might show deactivated plugins.

    You don’t have a shared host that is restoring backups on you, do you?

    frooyo I am certain not trying to discourage you from learning more about how bbPress works and trying to create plugins – however you should be able to find those hooks easily by reading the code. That’s how I learned everything I know about bbPress, I keep the windows search window open and pointed to the bbPress folder and I search for things. Many times the hooks are in the dozen php files in the bbPress root, sometimes you have to dig much deeper into the core files. If you can’t follow the code, you need to reconsider what you are attempting to do.

    I have no idea what other plugins you’ve written, modified or ported from WordPress but this is not exactly and easy conversion to start with. You need to understand what can and can’t be cached and it’s very different from WordPress.

    #74318

    @frooyo – Start here: http://phpxref.ftwr.co.uk/bbpress/nav.html?index.html

    It has all the functions and probably the hooks as well. That’s where I start when I want to figure out what’s up. You can view the code in the pages, and click on links to explain what each function etc is. I have no idea what functions etc you’ll need. I’d personally start by boning up on WP-Super-Cache, seeing what it hooks into on WP, and then, under the assumption the WP and BB has similar structures, look for the BB version of the WP hooks.

    And then I’d get a beer.
