It appears your domain is hosted at 1&1 Internet. If so, you might need to add this to the

top of your .htaccess file:

Options -MultiViews

Dropping “MultiViews” support?

I have domains with 1&1 and I needed to do that to make the rewrite rules work for me.

I think EasyPHP is for Windows, so I think you will need an SMTP mailer for Windows. I don’t have any first hand experience with those, but I have heard about a couple:

http://www.google.com/search?q=windows+smtp+mailer

Also, instead of mailing the password you could just display it with the Instant Password plugin:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/instant-password/

[chrishajer]

The bbpress directory does not go inside the WordPress plugins directory. You probably want it here /home/ironogre/public_html/worldsworkshop/bbpress/ and you will access it at http://www.worldsworkshop.com/bbpress/ . See if that works for you. Also, you can rename the bbpress directory to something else, like forums or community or something. That part of the URL is visible to the public, so make it meaningful to you.

If your primary concern is sending emails to newly registered users, you may want to check out this plugin:

You already have a post for this: Registration Email setup – To User along with Password

You don’t need to make multiple posts, that’s spamming

You probably don’t have email capabilities as a ‘server’ on your local machine. Have you ever installed websoftware that sends emails from localhost before?

bbPress version 0.9.0.4

PHP version 5.2.6

MySQL vesrion 5.0.67-community-log

Someone told me to change :

$this->rows_affected = mysql_affected_rows();

for :

$this->rows_affected = mysql_affected_rows($this->dbh);

Hi CK,

SMTP mailer for BBpress is not working for me.

I have installed on the local machine the Easy Php and set up the bbpress.

I have internet connection and I used my office SMTP address and changed the file mentioned in the plugin, but still the same problem I am not able to send the mails to the users who registered.

Please look into this and help me with this problem

Hey guys,

as many topics in this forum, this is another one concerning permalinks. I have read the FAQ here: http://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks and I have tried both, using Options +MultiViews and also using the code generated by /bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php but I cannot seem to get my permalinks working.

http://www.mitstil.com/community is the link to my forums.

The bbpress installation will use pretty permalinks but my host calls it a 404! Please help!

[vikram_gripsack]

Hi Folks,

Thanks in Advance

Solved somehow

i`ve updated to WP 2.8 rc 1

and now it does work!

There is another SEO plugin for bbPress:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/adding-meta-tags-or-seo-option#post-27178

It is also rough but it does a good job altogether.

[Tynan Beatty]

There’s no secret to it. All the info you need is in these forums. You mostly need to make sure that the […] in the following:

define('AUTH_KEY'[...] matches define('BB_AUTH_KEY'[...]

define('SECURE_AUTH_KEY'[...] matches define('BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY'[...]

define('LOGGED_IN_KEY'[...] matches define('BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY'[...]

and define('NONCE_KEY'[...] matches define('BB_NONCE_KEY'[...]

between your wp-config.php and bb-config.php.

Make sure you use different table prefixes for WP and bbP.

bb-config.php shouldn’t have anything extra defined in it past that, if you had left in WP2.8. Since you downgraded to 2.7 your bb-config.php needs to have define('WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION', 1); until you upgrade back to 2.8, at which point you need to remove that line again.

Your wp-config.php needs to have define('COOKIEPATH', '/wordpress/'); where ‘wordpress’ is the path to wherever you installed WP, or define('COOKIEPATH', '/'); if WP is in your site’s base folder.

Visit the WP administration settings and fill out the bbPress Integration Plugin settings (but mind what I said above, you probably shouldn’t add what it suggests adding to your wp-config.php file).

Visit the bbP administration settings and fill out the WordPress Integration settings there as well.

As I said in the posts I linked earlier, everything works fine for me with WP2.8-RC1 or any of the betas, and bbP1.0-RC1, except that if users log in from bbP, they can’t log out from WP (which seems a somewhat trivial issue since I doubt many users will need to do that).

Hope you can get it working.

peace~

This came up once before here:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/install-issue-fatal-error-line-72

Is it possible you attempted to install bbPress as a plugin inside of your WordPress install?

It’s a separate program and should be installed separately…

[soupviking]

Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_get_option() in /home/ironogre/public_html/worldsworkshop/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bb-plugins/akismet.php on line 72

What did I do wrong? I got this before Akismet was deactivated and after.

[Atsutane]

Nothing secret. My forum is on subdomain while my blog is on main domain.

All i need to do is define define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.atsutane.net'); and define('COOKIEPATH', '/'); inside wp-config.php

And if you are using Bbpress 1.0 RC1 with WP 2.7.1, you need to defind this define('WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION', 1); inside bb-config.php.

Another thing is, i let bbpress handle all registration and log in/log out process.

Hope this will help you

[bzmillerboy]

Good job, I can’t even get bbPress to install within my wordpress directory so your ahead of me!

I got an error when I clicked on the only topic you have posted.

An un-related comment…I think your glare is upside down on your logo, the white should be on top, not bottom. I would recommend you glare the city and not the text…just being helpful. Site looks clean, great job!

[mattlay]

I would like to put up a bounty for anyone who can make me a converter for my Xoops 2.0.14 (CBB 3.05) forums to bbPress. If anyone is interested in doing it I will reimburse them with the stipulation that I must test it to ensure it works and it must be freely available after the bounty is closed.

Send me an email if you are interested.

Thank you.

Hi Everyone!

Just got a WordPress and BBPress integrated site working. I adapted the default theme to make it match our custom WordPress theme. Comments appreciated!

Yay – got it! I removed the ‘fix nofollow & _blank’ code, and discovered how to add the _blank in by experimenting. bbPress wraps the URL in double quotes, so I used this;

Click here to get it.

Works fine. Just got to add the nofollow bit back in, though that affects forum spidering from what one of those other posts says. Well, at least I can open external links in a new window (or tab in Chrome). Thanks for the help!

I just re-added _ck_’s code to bb-tweaks;

add_filter(‘post_text’, ‘bb_rel_nofollow’);

but it isn’t adding the rel=”nofollow”. No worries though, this is fine;

Click here to get it.

If it’s just you doing it and never a member, how about the “admin can post anything plugin”?

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/admin-can-post-anything/

[amyhello]

What’s your secret, Atsutane?

I have the blog and forums kinda working — but when you go from the blog to the forum, it doesn’t carry over the password/username. It requries you to sign in again.

[chrishajer]

So you want links that are in replied to open in a _blank window? Just certain ones, or every one automatically? This would make any link posted in a reply open in a new windows (i.e. adds target="blank" to any link)”

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/open-links-in-new-window#post-15587

[chrishajer]

Has anyone, including yourself, posted the procedure or a how to on how this was accomplished? I would say a good 50% of the currentl questions in the forum are related to integration of [WP|WPMU]/bbPress and possibly BuddyPress. If it wasn’t that difficult, there wouldn’t be so many questions. Please point me and everyone else to a definitive guide on how to pull it off, and we can resolve all these troubling integration issues.

Thank you.

[Atsutane]

I do mine perfectly with WP 2.7.1 and BBPress 1.0 RC1

[amyhello]

I read that. So did you ever get it to work?

So I downgrade my WP back to 2.7. Is there a way to do one sign in between 2.7 and BBPress 0.9.0.5 – without having to sign in again?
