Hi,

I am installing the RC of bbpress and got to near the bottom of step 2, where I need to enter the wordpress database information (it is in a separate database). There is no field on the form to fill in the ‘User database password’ (under the ‘Separate user database settings’ banner).

It sounds like this similar issue reported with the Subscribe top Topic plugin?

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/subscribe-to-topic/page/3/#post-3436

Try disabling that plugin, and see if the problem goes away?

I’m seeing a similar issue to dmbware. Install looks ok until I paste the code in from the plug-in and then I can’t log into WPMU. I remove the code from wp-config and I’m OK. Can’t log into bbpress though and it says my password for admin can’t be reset.

When I add a post on creatingfame.com/members/forum the post shows up fine but when I submit a reply to the post I get a page with this message:

Scott any news on a complete fix and or directions on fixing the cookie problem with WPMU and BBPRESS

Hi Chris – actually I have tried emailing him, twice, and got no response at all. I notice that he hasn’t posted on the bbPress forum for around 8 months or so. Perhaps he has lost interest? Or perhaps my email just got blocked – who knows? I’m going to try leaving a comment on his site. I would have sworn I already did this once (maybe I dreamed it?) but I don’t see it there so I’ll give it another go, or a first go, whichever.

Thanks…….

[Florian]

Thanks, but unfortunately that did not help. I still can’t access the bbPress admin area. Any more suggestions?

[mortiferus]

jonkristian, Did that work for you? I am having the same issue, and adding the line did not do it for me.

[johnhiler]

1. Yup! There should be two sticky links at the bottom of the page… they’re described here:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/using-sticky-post#post-21295

2. There’s no such plugin for sticky voting that I know of… what did you have in mind?

[snapplethomas]

Hi! I’m just getting my feet wet with bbPress. Two quick questions:

1- Is it possible for a forum administrator to upgrade a post by another user to a “sticky post”?

2- Is there a function/plug in where users can vote to make a post a sticky post?

FWIW, _ck_’s plugins have always been ‘at your peril’ with the 1.0 revs.

Have you tried RC1 instead of a6?

[John James Jacoby]

mcmc, the title of your topic says bbPress and WPMU, but your question is about BuddyPress.

If you’ve got a BP question, head on over to buddypress.org and ask us over there.

[chrishajer]

Also, please post a link to your site. It sounds like you have a problem with the permalink setup though.

[chrishajer]

This keeps getting deleted because the previous posts did not mention bbPress at all. Can you explain how this relates to bbPress? Thanks.

[chrishajer]

How about trying to raise him at his website?

http://blogwaffe.com/about/

https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/mdawaffe

I thought that he was one of the original programmers for bbPress, although I see more from sambauers these days.

[jonkristian]

sweet, thanks!

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Add this to your bb-config.php

define('WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION', 1);

[jonkristian]

ok. Strange, integration doesn’t work for me any longer.

I have:

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.domain.org’);

define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

in both bb-config.php and wp-config.php since that was how i had it before.

I also have re-checked that the keys are matching in bb-config.php and wp-config.php and that the keys matches in the backend configuration. I have nothing special in either of the .htaccess files, other than permalink setup.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Does this release still require bbPress Integration plugin for WordPress?

Yes.

I dunno if my post gets deleted, but I posted this twice already and can’t find it, so here another try.

I tried installing the latest version of the social network from buddypress two days ago, but I fear it isn’t working properly. Whenever I click on a link, be it a member, blog, post, groups, create groups, etc I get redirected back to my homepage where my blog is. Is there a plugin that I am missing or do I have to set up sth?

Thanks.

[TrishaM]

I want to add my voice to this request…….

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE if there is anyone capable of taking over support/fixing of this plugin PLEASE help – it is definitely NOT getting any support from the original plugin author – I’ve even tried email him directly multiple times with NO response, and it definitely does NOT work for me at all in any browser (I’m using bbPress version 0.9.0.2). Hovering over stars changes their color but clicking does nothing at all – no changes are recorded, colors never “stick”, averages never change – it displays but does not appear to work.

I don’t have much to donate but I would definitely contribute, and I bet others would as well to get this fixed because it could be a great plugin if it worked reliably.

P.S. I KNOW there is a very long list of posts on this plugin’s page here at bbPress – but the plugin author stopped responding over a year ago, and no one else has tried to help those of us who still have problems, so it seems like posting there is not productive…..

A note on the installer. I did an integrated install where wp and bb were in separate subdomains using separate db’s. I got it to work but in the advanced section of the cookie integration in the separate user database sections the field for user db password does not display. I made the following change in the install.php file and it worked:

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_name’);

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_user’);

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_password’);

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_host’);

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_charset’);

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_collate’);

instead of the original:

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_name’);

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_user’);

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_password’, ‘password’);

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_host’);

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_charset’);

$bb_install->input_text(‘user_bbdb_collate’);

after that I was able to complete the install and the integration no proble. Hope this is helpful!

Hi,

More info – if it might help resolve my problem:

bbpress: Version 1.0-alpha-6

wordpress: 2.7.1

Thanks

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Log out of everything, kill the cookies, log in via the bbPress side. I had that once or twice, and it was all down to cookie corruption
