Is there then a way that when a registered bbPress member visits the WordPress area of the site, that WordPress will recognize them as registered bbPress members

Integrated login will do that. If you only want to use the BB side of things, you can use a ‘Hide Dashboard’ plugin for WP (to … hide things ), and then just never link to the WP profile stuff. I’m doing that and the three smarties who know they can login on the WP side quickly learned: Ain’t nutin’ there.

As for targeting ads, I suspect you can do that, though it’d be a question for the WP side methinks.

thank you Chris for your reply.

Now I have try a fresh, clean install.

Step 1 – Database configuration: I put my data, I don’t edit the advanced settings, I click on “Save configuration database file” and I got this message:

Step 1 – Database configuration

!

Your settings could not be saved to a configuration file. You will need to save the text shown below into a file named bb-config.php in the root directory of your bbPress installation before you can continue.

So I copy the “Contents for bb-config.php” in a file and i put this one on my site.

After I follow the instruction:

“Once you have created the configuration file, you can check for it below”

I check and i get another time the same error.

What do I do, now? I have not idea! can you give me some further help?

thank you so much!

I’m setting up a new website that is using WordPress as a CMS, and probably bbPress as a forum. (I’m toying with phpBB at the moment, but the integration I want here will likely push me to bbPress.) The WordPress area won’t require registration since its content is a series of short videos, and I want guests to be able to view them. Visitors will be invited to join the forums to discuss the videos, and I want them to self-identify their field of occupation when registering. My site is specific enough that the list of relevant occupations can be limited to a known list, so that field will be from a fixed set of possible choices.

Is there then a way that when a registered bbPress member visits the WordPress area of the site, that WordPress will recognize them as registered bbPress members and somehow pass that information out, so that an adserver (like AdSense) can target the ads it serves more specifically to that visitor based on the occupation they provided?

hi, i’m trying to install the bbPress 1. alpha version in a subdirectory “forum” of my site.

But I got an error in the first step of the installation.

I have created the bb-config.php file and I have uploaded them.

I check for the file and:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/mysite/public_html/forum/bb-config.php on line 1

so, I’m in trouble…

anyone please can help me to solve?

thank you!

I figured it out. There were two records for my capabilitues in the database. I don’t know why. When I changed both of them to keymaster, I got admin rights.

[Stefano Aglietti]

A customerd update his blog and forum to 2.7.1 and BB Press alpha and got in trouble with integration… asked me to solve it, i tried and got some result, forcing in DB hash salt key now login and logout in WP or BB reflect in other side but… on multipaged topics on bbpress when I request another page after the first one it ask me to login again and again… coockies lokk correct… I’m loosing my mind on this problem…

Note the bb theme is made so the content is from BB but sidebars headers and footer is from WP (very old intergation did by someone else time ago)

Any help?

[marjolein]

Thanks for those, I’ll use them!

[psheld]

Thanks again Chris for coming back on this thread. I am surprised to read your statement about integration though, as it was this feature of bbpress that made me go for it over other forums! Oh well, may be it’ll come out good in the end.

Here’s the code for wp-blog-header.php. Line 14 simply says “wp();”.

<?php

/**

* Loads the WordPress environment and template.

*

* @package WordPress

*/

if ( !isset($wp_did_header) ) {

$wp_did_header = true;

require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/wp-load.php' );

wp();

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/template-loader.php' );

}

?>

Thanks for the advice and keep up the good work! I look forward to hearing about your bbpress integration if it happens.

If you are using the Private Messaging plugin

by Joshua Hutchins / ardentfrost.rayd.org

or even Detective’s mod version of it, you need to take it offline immediately.

There are some very serious, multiple security problems with it.

If you are running it, your site can easily be hacked.

Please take this warning seriously, it’s not worth the headache.

Make sure you delete not only the plugin file

but the additional files it uses in the bbPress root.

These are awesome. I’m working on converting at least one of them into Zenphoto themes.

I’m having trouble with blank RSS feeds. All the feed links generate correct URLs but have no markup (completely blank)… not 404 pages. I’ve tried changing themes, turning off permalinks, disabling all plugins, using different browsers, selecting different types of feeds (topics, forums, tags, etc.)— all with no results.

This is an independent installation without WP integration (separate database too), though this bbPress installation is a subdirectory in a WP blog. Here’s a link.

I’ve got to be missing something here. Permissions?

Thanks

I have the same problem with WP 2.7.1 and bbPress 0.9.4

[chrishajer]

WordPress 2.7 (or anything after 2.5.1 really) does not integrate well for logins with bbPress 0.9.x., although I have heard recently of a couple different ways of getting the two to talk to each other.

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bayanimecom-wp26-and-bbpress-09-complete-cookie-integration

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/freshly-baked-cookies/

Regarding user roles in 0.9.0.4, there is a user role map section to the bbPress admin where you can map the WordPress roles to the bbPress roles.

http://www.example.com/bb-admin/options-wordpress.php

[chrishajer]

The latest stable bbPress (0.9.0.4) does not integrate nicely with WordPress 2.7.1.

What does line 14 of wp-blog-header.php look like?

[hpguru]

<title>Tilastot « – Mediapalsta</title>

Where i delete «?

Example: http://keskustelu.hpguru.net/statistics.php

Why bbPress title is same in many pages? Example register.php title is Forum name, search.php title is Forum name… etc. Why?

Sorry, bad English.

[najkiie1]

Alright. Thanks a lot for your help I started working on it yesterday, it might actually work.

And on the bbpress forum, i will have the forum categories in the sidebar, and then just a list of all the topics. So i don’t think that’ll be a prob

Oh and i like the way your sidebar works, how it changes all the time. Pretty cool.

Thanks again

Hi, im getting this error on bbpress installation when trying to log out.

Can anyone help a n00b please )

bbPress database error: [Table 'theforum_bbpress.bb_online' doesn't exist]

SELECT * FROM bb_online WHERE user_id = 1 LIMIT 1



Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/theforum/public_html/bb-includes/db-mysql.php:130) in /home/theforum/public_html/bb-includes/pluggable.php on line 232

Hi, i read

“In the “WordPress Integration” section of the “Settings” area in your bbPress admin you will find a “User Role Map” where you can set which roles will be applied to users who register on your forums. Users who register on your WordPress blog will have the appropriate role applied to their account when they first login to bbPress.”

but since i dont see the “Settings” area in my bbPress admin, how can i set it the proper way?

thank you very much,

the Process

[psheld]

Thanks Chris. My version of bbpress is the latest stable one at the time of writing: 0.9.0.4.

Just changed the secret key in both bb-config.php and wp-config.php to a 37 character long string of letters only, and we have success at http://www.atcv.net/bbpress . Awesome. Thanks v much.

But I get the following at my wordpress root http://www.atcv.net:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp() in /home/philipsh/public_html/wp-blog-header.php on line 14

so perhaps my integration with WordPress remains flawed?

[swaymedia]

yeah but for 0.9 is the user WP roles/permissions intergrateed with the user/permissions of BBpress?

[chrishajer]

Best? Well, Alpha is not recommended for production sites since it’s in a state of flux. For stability, you want 0.9.

When is 1.0 going stable? I don’t think there’s an answer for that yet:

And re: RSS feeds for each forum: yes (any version.)
