In your bb-config:

$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_econome'; // WordPress table prefix. Example: 'wp_';

In your wp-config:

$table_prefix = 'wp_econome_'; // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!

Looks like you’re missing an underscore in bb-config.

Also try changing this on your bbconfig: $bb->sitecookiepath = '/starteconome/blog/';

I have linked up a bbPress Support Forum (i.e. with (un)resolved indicators) to a web application that it is supposed to support. The web application generates tags that are context-sensitive and links with these to the bbPress Forum, so users are one click away to do a …/tags/abcdef query to the Forum and hey presto, all posts concerning the application page come up.

If somebody has a problem, they can click another link and insert a new Topic post into the same Forum. However this comes up with blank title, post body, and tag fields.

It would be brilliant if there were a way to insert the new topic’s title, part of the post body, and the tag into the New Topic form. Nothing fancy, just three parameters on the #postform URL would do. These parameters are cleaned and stupidly inserted in the form fields, ready to be accepted by the user.

I have done all the above directions but still can’t seem to get anything to work. It is not detecting the cookie and having be already logged in to bbpress after wordpress login. I have been working on this for some time.

I have the exact same scenario that schmitt has at the beginning of this thread.

Please help me out here, I have posted several thread but no one has helped me or taken a look at my config files.

Here they are:

bb-config.php

<?php



// ** MySQL settings ** //

removed for security



define('BBDB_CHARSET', '');      // If you are *upgrading*, and your old bb-config.php does

define('BBDB_COLLATE', '');          // not have these two contstants in them, DO NOT define them

// If you are installing for the first time, leave them here



// Change BB_SECRET_KEY to a unique phrase.  You won't have to remember it later,

// so make it long and complicated.  You can visit https://www.grc.com/passwords.htm

// to get a phrase generated for you, or just make something up.

// If you are integrating logins with WordPress, you will need to match the value

// of the "SECRET_KEY" in the WordPress file wp-config.php

define('BB_AUTH_KEY', '7k67k67k76'); // Change this to a unique phrase.

define('BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY', '67k67k76k67k76'); // Change this to a unique phrase.

define('BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY', '67k76'); // Change this to a unique phrase.

define('BB_SECRET_KEY', 'thisisone{crazy}sectret9084biugfhKey'); // Change this to a unique phrase.



// If you are running multiple bbPress installations in a single database,

// you will probably want to change this.

$bb_table_prefix = 'bb_'; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please!



// Change this to localize bbPress.  A corresponding MO file for the

// chosen language must be installed to bb-includes/languages.

// For example, install de.mo to bb-includes/languages and set BB_LANG to 'de'

// to enable German language support.

define('BB_LANG', '');



/* Stop editing */



if ( !defined('BB_PATH') )

define('BB_PATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/' );

require_once( BB_PATH . 'bb-settings.php' );



// The rest is only useful if you are integrating bbPress with WordPress.

// If you're not, just leave the rest as it is.



$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_econome';  // WordPress table prefix.  Example: 'wp_';

$bb->wp_home = 'http://www.fabuso.com/starteconome/blog';  // WordPress - Options->General: Blog address (URL) // Example: 'http://example.com'

thanks for the reply chris. I looked at the alpha 6 version and as far as I can tell it can be used as long as I don’t mind unsupported plugins and major changes in the eventual 1.0 release. any other hints or comments on this.

[tfab69fr]

Hi all

After upgrading:

WP2.5 -> 2.7

BBPress 0.9.4 -> 1.0 alpha 6

WP is running badly.

In order to get access to functions of BBPress, I have these lines at the end of wp-config.php:

if ( !defined('BBDB_NAME') )

require_once(ABSPATH.'forum/bb-load.php');

Into the index.php of my WP theme, I wish to display the last topics of the forums, by doing:

<?php

$forums = get_forums();

$topics = get_latest_topics();

$super_stickies = get_sticky_topics();

for ($i=0;$i<3;$i++){

$topic = $topics[$i];

?>

" title="See the message of <?php topic_author();?>"><?php topic_title();

<?php } ?>

The display of the latest messages was working well and still working well after the upgrade, BUT WORDPRESS GETS INTO TROUBLE:

– the css style for the back admin of WP is not working

– the hooks into the plugins are not called anymore (add_action(‘wp_head’, ‘init_js’); where init_js() is never run)

– custom query vars are not detected into the url

Well, when I remove the require_once into the wp-config.php (see below), the trouble disappear.

//if ( !defined('BBDB_NAME') )

//require_once(ABSPATH.'forum/bb-load.php');

How to get it working with the bbpress function without trouble in WP ?

I think this is a very important point for the BBPress integration in WordPress

Thanks

I’m just wondering if bbpress has a few features that I require, I currently maintain a website that has wordpress and phpbb on it. The forums has a whack load of sub forums along with ones only visible by certain members, I’m wondering if it is possible to make sub forums along with special ranks along with moderator and admin?

Because currently trying to make my wordpress theme work on the forums is being a real pain, I’ve gotten it to work for firefox but in IE its a mess, so I’m hoping bbpress could be my salvation if you will.

I’m also wondering if bbpress is easy to setup with Yahoo Small business hosting? I also maintain another site in works that requires a way to post “ads” kind of like craigs list but can only be posted by an admin.

Help on any of these issues would be great.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Go to bb-admin/options-wordpress.php

Scroll down to Manual bbPress config file settings

Copy that stuff into your bb-config.php

[chrishajer]

The alpha of bbPress works with WordPress 2.7, but there is no target release date that I know of.

[chrishajer]

If you just want to find out about new posts being made, I think I would follow the RSS feed of either recent posts or recent topics. That way you could see when new things are being posted. You could set up and RSS to Email thing and have an email sent when there are new items in the RSS feed if you don’t care for RSS.

If you want to moderate new posts and new topics, before they’re visible, you might want the BB Moderation Hold plugin:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-moderation-hold/

That was good for older version of bbPress. Not sure if it still works.

[chrishajer]

If it’s essential to have a unified login, then you are going to need to use the alpha version of bbPress.

[chrishajer]

Are you trying to access a WordPress site or bbPress site? Did you integrate bbPress with WordPress?

[chrishajer]

I think the closest you get to that is tags. There is an RSS feed for each tag, but the concept of categories or keywords does not exist in bbPress AFAIK.

[ekitel]

I realized what I did wrong, I didn’t follow all the steps quite sequentially, I had to set the keys manually in bb-config.php, and copied the define statements directly out of wp-config.php without realizing the constant names were supposed to start with BB_

Anyway this was an upgrade of both WP and bbPress, as opposed to brand new installs, and they seem to be working pretty well so far…

[lasthero]

What is that?

[ekitel]

I have integration working in that I can also log into both with the same user name and password. No problem with posting to the forum.

I really need to be able to be automatically logged into bbpress when I’m logged into WordPress, but this doesn’t work at all. I followed all the steps also, but it’s still not working. Any ideas?

Another weird thing was that every time I tried to save new salts in the bbpress wordpress integration it would log me out of bbpress and not save. I added the info manually to the bb_topicmeta table and now I can change and save these values any time from the options interface

[level200]

Really!! when will bbpress and wordpress 2.7 work together? any updates available?

[Dwenaus]

I have to integrate some sort of forum in a WPMU 2.6.5 website that will be going live in 20 days. I’d love to use bbPress but not sure which version I should use. the stable .9 release (which as far as I can tell does not integrate well) or the 1.0 alpha and hope for the best. any advice would be apprecated. It is essential for us to have unified login, other features are less important. thanks in advance

[deadlyhifi]

get_header() is a wordpress function. If you try and load that within bbPress it will not know what to do with it, hence the error.

There are various discussion about this on this forum, but as yet I haven’t seen a successful way of loading wordpress function into bbPress.

[deadlyhifi]

Have a look at this:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/share-solution-for-bbpress-10-alpha-6-wordpress-mu-27-cookie-integration

[12thharmonic]

First what I’m using

WPMU 2.7

BBPress 1.0alpha6

BuddyPress 1.02Beta

I watched the screencast, read multiple threads. I am working with a BBPress install that is well established.

WPMU http://headonradionetwork.com

BBPress http://headonradionetwork.com/forum

Once I completed the WordPress end of things, I was logged out of BBPress. I cannot log into BBPress with WP details or BBPress details. I can log into wordpress fine. Any login I try on BBPress tells me the username does not exist.

Any ideas? What other info would be useful?

Cheers Dears!

[mikeumus]

chrishajer, are you aware of the code in bbPress which takes the _wp table(required upon WordPress and bbPress integration) and somehow uses it in integration? If so, that might be a solution.

I found a a program which takes two MySql tables and makes a table consisting of those two tables contents. Here it’s description:

MySQL Join Two Tables Software 7.0 – Download

Combine (horizontally) two MySQL tables into one based on a common column of data from each table. The original two tables are not altered but a new table is created with the results.

Download here. Secure-order personal license for product here.

Check out other software at http://www.sobolsoft.com

I don’t think this will work however because of the multiple references to wp_users, and bb_users.

I just thought of something, would it work if I changed apltest’s users table to be called wp_users(or bb_users)(along with changes all references to the users table in the APL code to wp_users)?

Thanks for your input.

[firstangel]

It all went well until…

I can log into both as admin fine using the same username and password, so integration worked well, BUT, if I log into the forum I have to then log into the WP too, and vice versa, it doesnt do both at once.

I try and go to the post thats there to read it and it takes me to my WP 404 page.

The intial welcoming message that comes with BBPress is at http://1stangel.co.uk/art/friends/topic/your-first-topic

My WP is http://1stangel.co.uk/art and the BBPress is at http://1stangel.co.uk/art/friends

I followed the video really carefully

So two problems. One pretty major lol

[mikeumus]

Here are two links to the whole apltest database(2.jpg starts off down the table list where 1.jpg left off):

http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w220/mikeumus/2.jpg

[chrishajer]

Can you take a screenshot of the listing of tables in the two databases, or at least the database you want to integrate with?

[mikeumus]

So I logged into phpMyAdmin and did not see anything that looked like table prefixes, but I’m new to this. I saw two databases and this is what one of their structures looked like:

Table Action Records1 Type Collation Size Overhead

benchmarks 6 MyISAM utf8_general_ci 2.3 KiB –

All I need to do is make it so that users don’t have to create two accounts to access the Tournaments section of the site.
