I switched the theme to default and tried it again. Upon hitting submit the password fields highlighted in red – which they don’t do in the Options theme.
For some reason in Firefox and only with this particular installation of bbPress my first password field auto fills. The page thinks I’m trying to change my password and wants me to fill both password fields.
Problem solved!
Got both WP & bbpress installed, each in a seperate folder. I didn’t integrate anything yet and left the WP pristine.. There was an option to integrate which I defered on. Can you start to design the bbpress & integrate with a fresh WP install and still keep everything hidden? I’m sorry to be so ignorant, but I am reading the materials online & still I’m in the dark. Any detailed tuorial that I can get my eyes onto would be fabulous.
“if WP and BBPress are sharing the same database”
And if WordPress is diferent database of the BBPress?
I think you should file a bug and a patch at https://trac.bbpress.org/ . They will decide there if it’s valid or not.
There are settings that stay in the database.
For example the “WordPress database secret” is stored in your database settings and would be changed when you restored the db. That will completely affect cookies.
So double check that it’s still same in WP and bbPress after you restore.
BBPress doesn’t see the user logged anyway.
Mmh, but I reinstalled BBPress, and then it worked right until I’ve uploaded again the old database. So I thought that the cookie hash, if corrupted, was fixed by the reinstall process. Isn’t right?
Mmh, I integrated users, cookies, everything I found on BBPress installation.
Yesterday I marked as spam all posts by doorlopend krediet and today I deleted all replies by ashwaag. Sam, or _ck_, is there a way for me as moderator to mark the user so they and all their posts go away? It’s tedious to have to mark each reply as spam.
These posts were interesting because:
- they had no links in the body of the reply
- the member had just registered
- their username was linked to their website (and there was no bbPress forum there that I could find)
- they added replies to mostly old topics
- they replied many times (5 and 12 respectively) in a short time period
- the replies LOOKED like they were typed by a human and somewhat relevant to the topic, but added nothing of value to the discussion
This might be somewhat related this this previous topic of mine:

Strange 
I have a: “nl_NL” mo file in the folder: “my-languages” in the root of my installation of bbPress, and it just works just fine
You need to add a .htaccess file for bbPress. You generate the rules by going to your site, here (once logged in as keymaster):
http://www.example.com/forum-directory/bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php
Then, paste those rules into a .htaccess file in your forum root.
If you are on a host with a menu based system like Cpanel or Plesk they usually have an option to password protect a directory. You can use that to protect your bbpress forum install (and wordpress) and that way it will be impossible to access for anyone except you.
There is a bbpress plugin that forces login to be required to see the forum so you could install that and even if anyone found it, they would only see a login.
Has anyone been able to use google friend connect with bbpress?
2,71 and the latest stabel version of bbPress.

Make a loop to show Subsubforum in the div SubForum and not below

WordPress 2.7.1
What did I do to make sure the cookies worked? Hmmm. Well, I went through the entire integration process in the bbPress admin panel. I never took it further than just setting it up because my site is brand new and realizing that I didn’t know how to integrate 3 bbPress databases into one WP install I talked myself out of the idea. So, nothing that I can think of.
Here is the link to my site. Like I said it’s kind f a live trial run so nothing much is happening. Also, all of the plugins that I’m using are also used with my other forums that work.
Is there a way to re-set the cookies integration?

Thanks. I installed WordPress 2.7.0 on the host, but it is not public. I want to add the bbpress there & develop on the hosted site, but still not public. Do I just follow the same install procedures as published here?
If you login on the wordpress side does bbPress see the user logged in?
If not, the cookie hash has probably changed and might need to be forced on both sides.
This is simple integration right, not full/deep integration?
@chrishajer, thanks for the code, this one didn’t work for me, but the one on the page top. You can visit my forum http://deadrising2.de/?page_id=84
If someone wants to know how i made it, I just removed stuff from the bbpress head.php so it looks like this:
<body>
<div id=”main”>
<?php if ( is_bb_profile() ) profile_menu(); ?>
and also the first </div> from the footer.php, I also removed the hot tags stuff from frontpage.php. Now I installed embed-iframe plugin for wordpress and modified the iframe.php like this:
<div class="iframe-wrapper">
<iframe src="<?php echo $url ?>" frameborder="0" id="youridnamehere" width=100%>Please upgrade your browser</iframe>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function resizeIframe() {
var height = document.documentElement.clientHeight;
height -= document.getElementById('youridnamehere').offsetTop;
<code></code>// not sure how to get this dynamically
height -= 150; /* whatever you set your body bottom margin/padding to be */
document.getElementById('youridnamehere').style.height = height +"px";
};
document.getElementById('youridnamehere').onload = resizeIframe;
window.onresize = resizeIframe;
</script>
Now I just modified the width of the bbpress style.css for head, main and footer, and also the cols/width of the textarea. I still have a scrollbar if there are more posts on one page, but I can live with.
Thanks for your help!`
Is there a tutorial available? I would like to download the bbpress to a local machine & see how it works, not on a hosted platform. Is there a way to do this without making it public? Thanks.
Region is determined by a combination of tld, declared character set, and server ip location. Even with all that, sometimes it’s impossible to figure out automatically what the target audience is, hence the “???” I’m still improving the routine.
Let’s just say I have a new found respect for Google – I think they must look at whois info for the domain owner registration. I don’t quite have the resources to mimic that yet.
906 isn’t too shabby considering how many sites there are now.
I like how you replaced “sticky” with a nifty little icon.
*snicker* I’m on the top 1000! (#906! Woo!). How are you detecting regionality? I notice a lot of .net/.org sites are ???

Wow, this is really nice!!!
There are now three bbPress forums with over a million posts, the leader being Simon and Schuster’s site which appeared so suddenly that I suspect they must have imported their content from another forum that already existed for some time.
Here are some other ranges by number of posts:
1,000,000 + 3
100,000 - 499,999 11
50,000 - 99,999 22
10,000 - 49,999 70+
5,000 - 9,999 70+
1,000 - 4,999 300+
100 - 999 1000+
