I’ve installed this version of bbPress, and evrything works perfect

[sumit1988]

ok that avatar thing is an other concern. I think you should ask that question in the comments of the plugin itself or the plugin homepage or an extra topic in the plugins support forums.

To the theme thing.

Yes it’s my theme. I forgot to say: the navigation thing i mentioned is only usefull, when you use a self-made navigation like i do. If you use the wordpress sidebar to navigate through your site, you should use also the sidebar to link to your forums. E.g. you can do the following:

Go to you widget options in wp-admin, add a text-widget to you sidebar and write something like:

Visit my Forums

in the widget. Save and you’ll get a forum link in you sidebar.

I don’t know how to display the hole wp-sidebar in bbpress. I think thats a little bit more difficult. But you could write in your bbpress theme a link above the forums itself that links back to you wordpress.

In my opinion the easiest way to “integrate” the themes is, to use a self-made navigation.

Many wordpress themes use self-made navigations also.

Oh and i almost forgot. Do you know how to get the avatar uploader plugin to work? I can install it, but when i upload an image the image isn’t displayed. No matter which browser i use. I’ve tried to CMOD the “avatars” folder to both 666 and 777, but it still doesn’t work. And all the files are where they should be.

And is it possible to transfer avatar images from bbPress to WordPress, if so, how?

Any ideas?

[najkiie1]

Thanks.

So there is no way at all to make a plugin or something do it for you? That’s bad, but i’ll have to try

How do i do with the menu? I can’t link the menu to another page in wordpress. I can only link to pages in wordpress… how do i link it to the forum page, which doesn’t belong to wordpress..?

I must say you’ve (if its yours) done a very good job with your theme, and no i can’t see any difference between your blog and your forum, exept that the forum is moved like 5 more px to the left. Awesome job!

hi

of course it is. But not the way you think. You have to work around a little. I’ll explain:

check http://www.sumit-online.de/forum/

fully integrated with a navigation that links to my wordpress sites.

BUT:

This is not the wordpress theme! Maybe you can see a little difference in my head-picture between the forums page and the others.

You have to copy/recreate your wordpress theme in bbpress. bbpress uses the same theme system than wordpress. so you do a theme for bbpress that looks exactly like the wp ones. you also use the same navigation. Then i looks fully integrated like my bbpress. But it isnt really THAT integrated. it does the job…

and if you e.g. want to change a navigation menu or something other in you theme, you have to do it in BOTH! WP and bbPress theme.

hope you can figure it out now

The title might get you a little it confused. What i was trying to say was; how do i integrate my entire wordpress forum into my wordpress theme… i made an example image below

http://rapid-photo.com/uploads/15untitled.jpg

(forgot to add the footer on the image..)

So is there any way to do this? I noticed there is a “WordPress Integration” thing in the settings, but thats not what i’m looking for, right? That will just “transfer” members right?

I had some trouble with installing bbpress before, i couldn’t login as admin. I played around a bit with it and then i found out that i had to change the settings in “bb-config-sample.php”. I’ts a really good forum, i like it.

Thanks.

It’s possible with a plugin.

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/allow-images/

or

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-attachments/

[klagreca]

This solution for integration worked for me!

Using:

WPMU 2.7

BBpress 1 alpha 6

buddpress 1 rc1

Netcomp, looks like I owe you a beer!

Hi: is it possible to insert images into posts in bbPress? I am looking at the post create & edit screen, it seems to only have plain text.

[chrishajer]

Have you tried dumping all the cookies to be sure there is nothing left over fouling things up?

[H]

…and just for your information; I’ve changed the script so that it looks for ID == 3 instead of ID == 1.

[H]

Hm, it still doesn’t work. I have even cheched in the database, and my user has

meta_value: a:1:{s:9:”keymaster”;b:1;}

meta_key: bbpress_capabilities

Just as it’s supposed to.

Even so, I don’t get the admin link when I’m logged in. And I’ve tried to use the plugin which you linked to.

[chrishajer]

2. You might want to allow the user to just pick their own password when they create the account:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/instant-password/#post-2181

Otherwise, they can just log in, go to their profile, click edit, then change the password. No plugin required; it’s built in.

1. Are you having any other issues with the forum? It almost sounds like the URL permalinks are not working. Can you post a link to your forum? If not, why worry about the duplicate account? Just never use it and no one will ever know.

[Detective]

No, i’m not the owner nor the original developer, i just made a few modifications i needed for my users and released it some time ago.

[inkey]

Did anyone can help me to resolve this problem.

I suspect that the problem is in cookies, because the problem appears in two days, after user is registered on forum.

Now I installed __ck__ plugin “Year Long Cookies – Remember Me”, but this is not resolve my problem.

I can not tell to all my users what browser they must to use. Only one reason to use bbPress is integration with WordPress database.

Did anyone develop the stable version of bbPress?

Sorry for my bad English, and for emotions.

You would need to change the ID to 3 in your case I believe.

[Matias Ventura]

Thanks for the compliment!

Of course If you have experience with WordPress theming, it’s even easier. Took me a couple hours to make my forum match my site.

[H]

I see now in the script that it checks

if ($user_type == USER_FOUNDER)

However, according to the table, USER_FOUNDER is not a user type. User Type is set with IDs. My user type is for instance 3…

[H]

I have converted my forum now, without any major problems.

However, my user account isn’t set to Keymaster… That’s a problem for me now, as I would like to do some admin changes.

Can anybody help me?

[chrishajer]

@helgetry: What problem are you having?

[H]

Is it possible to do a fix for this? I just can’t go through the whole DB to change all the special characters.

[manofkent]

thanks will download shortly

so the themes can be tailored to match my existing web site?

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Sure, I use it with it today. You just add it to your theme where you want it.

You can manually mark spam posts with my “Mass Edit” plugin.

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/mass-edit/

There are two email notification plugins available, one is the “post notification”

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/post-notification/

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/auto-add-favorites/

and the other is my “subscribe to topics” (which is not robust yet).

Sweet! Thanks for the recommendations, ck! I think I actually found mass edit at some point and downloaded it somewhere to my desktop. Unfortunately I have hundreds of files all over my desktop and I forgot what it was called. Post notification I’m using; I think I modified it at some point to not send on your own posts.

Hey detective, are you the owner of the pm plugin? It would be great to get independent enhancements bundled into the one plugin in the repository!
