So far the integration as explained in this topic has worked pretty well for me (WP2.7 and BBpress 0.9).

Except for one issue. I have customized a WP template, and once I activate that template (with BBpress installed in a subdirectory to BBpress), the BBpress profile pages stopped working correctly:

the link to a user profile does indeed end up at profile.php?ID=xx but instead of showing the user info, the page jumps into edit mode (as if trying to edit my own profile instead of viewing someone else’s). Also the submenu is no longer there.

I don’t understand how the wordpress template should affect the way BBpress profiles are shown. Any clues?

Thanks for the tip Dragunoff. I’ve installed the downgrade but it still doesn’t work. I think my problem is that I just don’t have a secret key. My keys look like this (I’ve taken out the actual keys):

define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘BB_AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

define(‘BB_NONCE_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);

Do I need to add in the SECRET_KEY separately?

The svn looks badly out of date for Italian

http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/it_IT/tags/

so you if you want to link your results here and state which version it is for we’ll see if Sam or Michael can update the SVN…

Installed the Frshly baked cookies plugin.

Have both able to share the database. A user created in either can be used in either. The issue is that if I log into WP fine. Then I go to BBPress and Have to Log in to it seperatly but it will then Log me off WP. If I then go and log into WP then it will log me off BBPress.

_ck_, I looked into some things about regionality and I don’t think you’ll be able to get it much better than it is, unless you do as you mentioned, with the whois. Even then, it’s not going to be accurate 100%, since sometimes a server is in the US, but it runs a Brazillian site, etc. (And I’m still pissed at Google, a year later, from when I was in Japan and I went to google.com and it kicked me to google.jp, based on my IP, and ignoring everything else like the fact that my browser info showed I used English. At the time, I couldn’t get it to show the link to ‘Google in English’ and I was stuck in Japanese for a while.) Regions and localization are things that seem like a really good idea, but there’s no way to make it perfect, since you can never tell when someone’s abroad

I like how you replaced “sticky” with a nifty little icon.

Thanks! That was my first ‘hack’ for bbPress and I slapped this in my functions.php

// This sets sticky label as an image

remove_filter('bb_topic_labels', 'bb_sticky_label', 20);

function my_sticky_label( $label ) {

global $topic;

if (is_front()) {

if ( '2' === $topic->topic_sticky ) {

return sprintf(__('<img src="/images/sticky.png" alt="[sticky]" /> %s'), $label);

}

} else {

if ( '1' === $topic->topic_sticky || '2' === $topic->topic_sticky ) {

return sprintf(__('<img src="/images/sticky.png" alt="[sticky]" /> %s'), $label);

}

}

return $label;

}

add_filter('bb_topic_labels', 'my_sticky_label', 20);

Hi,

I’ve got the same problem, but with another host(Hosteurope).

I solved it after I’ve asked my hoster. When sending an Email from my host, I need to add a -f parameter to the sendmail function.

Doing so in BBPress you will need to add a valid (and known for the server) Email-adress in line 90 of your bbpress-root-folder/bb-includes/backpress/class.mailer.php file from

/**

* Sets the Sender email (Return-Path) of the message. If not empty,

* will be sent via -f to sendmail or as 'MAIL FROM' in smtp mode.

* @var string

*/

var $Sender = '';

to

var $Sender = 'from@your-domain.com';

I hope this might help some of you

sa05admin, all the numbers were gathered in the first two weeks of April

[sa05admin]

How upto date is the half a million posts and 100,000 users on the WordPress Support forums as described in the About pages – Can you give that statistic a date in time or keep it updated with a time of last update or even a pretty graph, please, pretty please.

[brettbum]

I’m seeing this same problem in WordPress all by itself. Don’t think this is a BBpress problem but a WordPress problem. Don’t see anyone that seems to have a handle on it yet.

[racejunk]

Not sure if anyone is reading this but it looks like wordpress and BBPress are using different ashes. I tried putting the actual hash in the Freshly_baked_cookies.php but it did not help as in: (the Real Hash is different)

define(‘COOKIEHASH’, ’16bc2175035323b2cf11e36e21a0ea32′);

Anyone have suggestions? Anyone reading this?

[chrishajer]

It does not work at all with the alpha versions, and I think it was not working well with the 0.9* versions.

[chrishajer]

Also, you don’t log in directly at bb-login.php like you can with wp-admin. You need to enter your login details in the front page of your forum, and if you are keymaster (or administrator or moderator), you will be shown the Admin link next to your name and that’s how you get to the back end. If you don’t have the Admin link then you’re not logged in as keymaster.

[chrishajer]

Did you use something like one of these two solutions to integration the cookies with the two versions you installed? The cookies are incompatible otherwise.

Hi All,

Havnt seen any tutorials before doing integration, i guess thats the blunder i did..hence this problem.

Problem: Cant login to bbpress admin, after WP integration, get message that User doesnt exist. However i CAN login to my WP admin without problems.

Versions

WP :2.7.1

BBpress :0.9.0.4

What i did: from bbpress integrate wordpress section i filled out following only, nothing esle

1. Gave my WP url

2. Gave my WP blog url

3. Gave my WP secret key

4. Gave the WP table prefix as: wp –

thats all dint do anything else. and i UPDATED these details.

Immediately got logged out. and now cannot login to forum.mysite.com/bb-login.php (bbpress forum is in subdomain)

What else i did: i generated new password thinking its a password issue. No luck

Also installed Fix Admin plugin in Plugin folder of WP from Cpanel, as soon as i installed it took me to login page of BBPress, and i tried logging in, No Luck. User doesnt exist message.

Error seen on left hand TOP side of bbpress login page when login fails:

bbPress database error: [Table ‘saphruse_bbp01.wp_users’ doesn’t exist]

SELECT ID FROM wp_users WHERE user_login = ‘admin’

bbPress database error: [Table ‘saphruse_bbp01.wp_users’ doesn’t exist]

SELECT * FROM wp_users WHERE user_login = ‘admin’

Please help.

Thanks a mill.

here is my site its a forum about haunted house construction and how-to halloween props. well kind of, i just opened it like 5 days ago, 1 member haha.

im really digging the stock theme so im sticking with that. i still need a little slogan/description. but the bbpress one works for now. ha.

nothing fancy.

I integrated WP 2.71 and the the bbPress v0.9.0.4.

I used the plugin to downgrade the cookies.

I no longer am able to preview posts in wordpress. I have another non-integrated blog and this is not an issue. Thus, it seems to me it is a bbPress issue.

I cannot login to both at the same time.

I want this to work but am finding the integration to be a problem. At times it makes me think WordPress and bbPress were developed entirely by seperate groups..

[saint-1]

im a phpbb user and im eally digging this bbpress software. figured i would give it a shot on a new forum i started.

is there an SEO modification or even a way to add some meta tags to the header of the pages so a search engine bot can gather up some info or even pull from the tags? or is this already included into the software?

[Ivaylo Draganov]

Hi,

I also was stuck on that for a while. I found it easier to downgrade WP 2.7 cookies with this plugin:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-26-and-bbpress-09-integration/

Just make sure you juse just the old SECRET_KEY in wp-config.php and match it to the BB_SECRET_KEY in bb-config.php

Clear your domain cookies after activating the plugin and login again. Test login/out on both installations.

Of course you mast have completed the integration steps described here:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101

[cyclune]

Chrishajer is right. I have bbpress linked with WordPress. I don’t want the users to change their own profile with wrong email adresses or new user names.

_ck_ – where do I have to insert this piece of code???

[pierrottorreip]

@ bruinfelix, I looked at your site and you did not integrate the header at all.

@ caming, in my experience it’s not an easy thing to do. There is some info floating around here about using an include to get your WP header to show up on bbPress but it’s not pretty.

My advice to you would be to rebuild it in bbPress and then spend some time making it look smooth. At a minimum this will involve you bringing your header over (either through the style sheet or the header.php) and then recreating your nav bar.

You can see that I’ve done it here…

If this helps at all I’d be happy to answer any questions you have.

[bruinfelix]

I use the latest wordpress MU version (trunk), and just the alpha-6 version of bbPress

Ohw, and a recent version (also trunk) from the buddypress website

[_ck_]

first, never post your login info, mysql or otherwise on the web, now you have to change it

second this is the bbpress support forum, not the wordpress support forum

(but your problem does seem weird, there should be no error with that)
