What version of bbPress and WordPress are you using?

[Justin Tadlock]

I just ported my new design over to my support forums:

http://themehybrid.com/support

I hope you all like it.

Working on a bbPress theme design again kind of gave me a little more inspiration. I’m hoping I can get out some bbPress theme releases in the next few months.

I know this has probably been explained, but after sifting endlessly, I still haven’t found a complete answer. I just want my WP header/footer syndicated onto my bbPress.

Any direction would be greeeeeeat!

Thanks folks,

Nate

Hi everyone,

I’m sorry to post this topic knowing that there are so many similar ones on this forum, but I’ve been going round in circles for days. I have the user databases integrated perfectly on my site, but I still have to log in/out completely separately. My four secret keys definitely match in both the bb-config and wp-config, and I can’t find anything else I am supposed to do.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Jack

Been reading these forums for over two days and not making progress.

Have WordPress 2.71 (not MU) and then BBPress .9. WordPress is installed in a subdomain http://newsedge.webjunk.com

Installed the Freshly Baked Cookies plugin to allow bbpress to read newer cookies. Both WordPress and BBPress work fine on their own.

If I create an Id with WordPress or BBPress I can log into both. Cookies are not shared. Have to login seperately.

If (after loggin in both) I logout of WordPress, then I am logged out of both. If I log out from BBPress I am still logged into WordPress.

The instructions on here are all over the place between various versions. Am thinking maybe tthere is other things that may have to be copied over from WP-CONFIG.PHP to BB-CONFIG.PHP. Could someone post something consise on what needs to be copied? Or anything else I should check?

Thanks…..

Hello, I’ve run into this issue twice now upon trying this. I’ve got WPMU installed on a subdomain, added the BuddyPress plugin, and that’s it. Then I go to add my BBPress as a sub-directory to said subdomain and install it just fine, using the same database – set up an administrator account, etc. I log into it, and try to do the integration to WP, add the secret code, add the cookies line to my wp-config.php, tell it to share users, etc. Once I submit that integration page I’m logged out, and I can’t log in any more with the administrator account i made for BBPress, but I can log in with my WP Admin’s account, but here’s the ringer, I no longer have any administrative privileges – so the BBPress install becomes useless. What do you think I am doing wrong, or should be doing otherwise? My goal is to simply have this forum integrated into WPMU/BuddyPress. Any pointers would be appreciated, thank you!

bbPress has the same requirements as wordpress, so yes 4.0 is the minimum

Yes, this works very well. Just google phpbb2bbpress

Does bbPress work properly with a MySQL 4.0 database?

Is there a way to import a forum that is already established using phpBB?

I think this would be a huge feature for all the people out there suffering from forum spam using phpBB.

Anyone have any success doing this?

I feel really stupid asking this question, but I can’t figure out how to create a subforum. My website is http://www.overtimetrainingcenter.com/forum/ and I want to create 2 different boards: One for Overtime MMA and one for Overtime Wrestling.

Most other forum software programs I have seen have the option to create subforums, but I can’t figure out where to add subforums in BBpress. Is there a special plugin I need to download to do so?

Thanks

Hello bbPress team,

I extremely like bbPress as it is fast and simple. But need to know when final version will be out? Please update.

Thanks,

I see a bunch of people voted for their own site and nothing else?

Come on, there are some nice designs out there to vote for…

The instructions are right under the wordpress integration menu in bbpress

[pierrottorreip]

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?

[chrishajer]

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.

[_ck_]

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.

[sydarex]

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:
