Are you just talking about moving a topic in your bbPress install to a different forum in the same bbPress install? At the bottom of the topic page (in 0.9.0.4) there is a drop down “Move this topic to the selected forum: ” with a list of forums. That is how you would move a topic from one forum to another in the same bbPress installation. If you don’t have that link at the bottom of the topic page, you probably don’t have permission to move it (i.e. you’re not keymaster, admin or moderator.) Members can’t do this on their own. Some one in charge needs to do it.

1. No, that is to prevent search engines from caching a copy of your site. It will still be indexed, you’re just telling the search engine not to cache the site.

2. PHP. You need to do a little PHP that says “if this is the first post, then show the adsense, otherwise, don’t.”

advertisements after the first message

3. It’s not that easy. It’s better to create a bbPress template that looks like your WordPress template. But you can read others experiences by browsing the integration tag.

4. Why do you think page views should be showing up? That’s not built in.

What version of bbPress did you install, and what plugins did you install?

[chrishajer]

0.9 supports subforums, but in 1.0 categories are built in. To me, a category is a parent forum that does not allow posts. It’s not built in to anything but the 1.0 alphas right now.

This plugin states that it works up to 0.9.0.2:

Hello,

I have started a bbPress forum on my site. But not being able to do few things properly and hence seeking help. Kindly guide me.

1. My page header section contains a meta tag like this…

<meta NAME=”robots” CONTENT=”noarchive”>

Is this OK? I guess this is used to block spiders, isn’t that?

2. I want to show a adsense ad inside the first post only. But when I edited the Post.php and reloaded the post page, I found that the ad is appearing in every post. How to limit that ad for the first post only?

3. Is it possible to use WordPress blog’s header on bbPress (Replacing forum header with blog’s header) without integration?

4. Page Views is not appearing in the forum menu. How to fix that?

Waiting for some helping hands. Thanks in advance.

After a more deep forum search I found this

Thanks a lot anyway.

Hello bbpress forum!

I successfully integrated bbpress into my WordPress installation. I have shared user database and header/footer function.

Now I want highlight the Forum Tab in the header menu, of course only when people are showing forum pages. I read in this forum that I can use $forumpage variable. So, I can use it in a conditional function, like <?php if ($forumpage = TRUE) { echo ” id=”current””; } ?>

But, such variable is always TRUE, also in non bbpress page.

Where is the trouble?

Sorry for my little english!

[sumit1988]

err.. (1.)forums with different databases or (2.) just different forums in ONE bbPress Install?

1. export database, import to the new one except of the options- tables and so on

2. Log in to bbPress, go to your Topic you want to move (frontend), go to the bottom of the page to the “move topic to” section and select the forum you want. Click on “move” or something similar – done.

Hi,

Is there a template similar to functions.php in wordpress where you can integrate a backend in to control various bits and pieces of bbpress?

Thanks,

Richard

Admin Can Post Anything, from _CK_ is a great plugin and works perfectly in the latest stable version of bbPress.

Is there anyway to make both Administrator and Moderator able to insert html content?

Best regards,

we only have bbpress running on a shared host.

[bobbyh]

Are you running anything else, or just bbPress? Is this your own server or a shared host?

hi all,

i’ve been running a small private bbpress forum for about 6 months now. overall things have been working quite smoothly. we have one persistent problem though; our sql connections occasionally spike and max out giving us the “oh dear” page until things settle down. until a few weeks ago i was blaming our host, but now that i’ve been monitoring the server with ‘mysql administrator’ i can see that it’s the connections that are the problem. usually we’ll be running just fine at about 10-20% connection capacity and then wham, spike to 90-100% and down we go for a few minutes (occasionally more).

how can i figure out what’s causing these spikes? any help would be greatly appreciated.

What version of bbPress are you using?

Is it integrated with WP?

I would like to submit an anti-spam plugin I have made for bbPress. How do I submit it to the bbPress plugins browser? There seems to be no info on this either on the site or in the forums.

[Ivaylo Draganov]

Maybe you can take a look at this plugin:

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

I’m not sure if it works on current bbPress versions though.

[chrishajer]

Are you using a language file other than English?

What version bbPress did you install?

[zhao1]

why?

godaddy host

[atkins]

can you set so only moderators and admin can post the you tube videos in bbpress

I’m using a nice hack for wordpress that lets me install wordpress once, and have multiple urls use those files, so when updating day comes, there’s a single update to be done. Is this possible with bbpress? If so, would anyone like to share how to? I’d be willing to test

[chrishajer]

Before you go getting your hands dirty for anything, you will find that most of the functionality you desire has probably already been accounted for in a plugin:

Plugin “Read only forums” might be what you’re looking for:

This showed how to prevent members from adding new posts:

[chrishajer]

What version are you using? There were some performance improvements, including adding indexes, but it would depend on your version.

Also, rather than hacking your installation, please consider filing a trac ticket to be sure the fix is evaluated and implemented for everyone.
