No release date that I know of.

[xlguy]

I’ve browsed the forums, but I couldn’t spot any details on the expected release date of another alpha or the beta?

[sumit1988]

ok guys i just can’t get it

i figured out, that the file where wiseacre brought me to is the pot for the Alpha 5! I found a pot file for the Alpha 6 @

1 Documentation

2 Installation

3 http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/

4 pot

5 tags

BUT: Big problem with that pot. I translated it two times and everytime i try to translate some phrases with:

“%d” e.g. “%d topic:”

then this phrase cant be translated. And after the try, the pot file is broken. i cant open it anymore and ALL TRANSLATIONS are gone. thats very very frustrating.

Problem of me or problem of this

http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/pot/tags/1.0-alpha-6/

.pot?

Using poEdit 1.4.2

Works like a charm for me Saves me about 5 bot registrations per day

Hey I just got:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function do_action() in /usr/local/gathera/bbpress/index.php on line 6

Apache/2.0.55 (Ubuntu) mod_jk/1.2.14 PHP/5.1.2

BBPress: version 0.9.0.4

I don’t know if it matters but, last week I installed bbpress on a server without any problems. So this week I try to install it on another server, but I just got the line above and a redirect to bb-admin/install.php. But when I click the link(“let’s get started”) I see the line above again and redirects to the same page. The only difference between the two I have noticed is that one have an WordPress Installation (I didn’t activate integration, I just ignore it).

I’m really lost. Any ideas?

I assume you’ve already been through these:

What version of bbPress are you talking about?

[Simon Wheatley]

Anyone know of a current phpBB to bbPress importer? I’ve got Jaime’s (http://www.iteisa.com/phpbb2bbpress/) which is getting me some way, but doesn’t seem to be aimed at the current DB schema.

I’m going to keep hacking away, but any suggestions would be gratefully received.

I just converted the TooNewsy wordpress theme over to a bbpress template. Here is a link to download it and see a demo:

http://ericlbarnes.com/projects/toonewsy-for-bbpress/

Hope someone finds it useful!

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Flip back to the default themes and see if the problem persists. If no, it’s the theme. If it persists, collect the following:

1) bbPress version

2) Plugins

3) WP version (if integrated)

and report back!

And yeah, that is a pill! You should be able to tweak it with CSS to put in a special layout if you can detect Eeepc … What browser does it use?

[susanspy]

hey rowoot, i do not think you can bbSync to replace my wordpress comment system with forum posts, but it doesn`t seem to work with wp 2.6.3 + bbpress 1.0a2. well if there is i too would like to know about the same.

Cheers!!!

You can use fel64’s unofficial plugin to add a new Role:

I’ve used this together with Hidden Forums, and it works really nicely!

[_ck_]

They are using the trunk which is why I didn’t bother to answer.

I officially do not support anything past 1.0 alpha 5 at this point.

I simply do not have the time anymore to fix for every 1.0 release.

I will resume updating after 1.0 goes beta final someday.

I may release a plugin to make bbPress 0.9 work with WP 2.7 cookies

at some future date to allow people to use more plugins without problems.

I use modified Refresh theme (it’s quite old) and it doesn’t allow me to edit users info or delete users. Also users can’t modify their info. I haven’t noticed any other problems in bbpress installation.

Please advise me where to search for problem solution – in refresh theme itself or somewhere else? Thanks.

Hi chrishajer,

I tried to find a solution for this problem and well this is what I could get upon…

When the WP config loads, it prepares the permalink string and then scans for a file (say links.txt) in the root folder.

If the contents of the file are not same with the generated permalink string, then its written into that file.

And when BBpress gets loaded, it reads that file for permalinks and then generates header/footer as per the links.

I know that this is not the best of the methods. But still this is what I could think of.

Hope its useful for anybody trying the same thing.

[chrishajer]

To use WordPress functions (like wp_list_pages), you need to include WordPress in your bbPress. For something simple like this, I was hoping you could get away without doing that since it’s not recommended and at this point I’m not sure if it even works very well. The other problem with integration like that is that you need to integrate the Alpha version of bbPress with WordPress version 2.5 or newer. You’ve already installed 2.7 and 0.9.0.4. I’m not certain what that achieved since the logins won’t be shared between those versions.

I don’t know if there’s a good answer for this, which is why I suggested hard coding it, at least for now.

[johnhiler]

I use this plugin, but don’t get that error.

What version of bbPress are you on?

[maisondouf]

I see on my Eeepc 701 some problem to display correctly some pages.

I suppose it’s due to the 800 pix width of the EeePC screen..

You can see on the screen shot that in the sentence “recent activity” in french “Activité récente” the second words overwrite the first.

Hi chrishajer,

Thanks for the suggestion…….

but they are bound to change sometime in future.

I also read your article. Thanks I was bit struggling with this thing also(getting WP info in BBpress). But even if I get the information, how would i construct the Permalink structure of the WP.

I have been following the WP code to write my own functions, but they seem to go pretty deep and I dont know whether creating a copy of these functions in BBpress would be safe or not.

Hey All,

I posted this here…

http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/instant-password/

but was wondering if anyone else had the same problem. I set up the instant password plugin and tried to set up a test accound but kept on getting a ‘password is too short’ message – no matter what I type in.

Thanks!

[chrishajer]

There is no restart required for modifying an .htaccess file: Apache reads that for every access.

The permalinks are not related to PHP4 vs PHP5.

The permalink stuff is definitely 100% right now, at least for the 0.9.x series.

I’m assuming you made the change in the admin to turn on the permalinks, in conjunction with adding the .htaccess rewrite rules?

I had to insert this into my .htaccess to turn OFF the multiviews before the rewrite rules would work:

Options -MultiViews

Hi There, this really bugs me. I love bbpress and it’s simplicity.

Im currently using Version 0.9.0.2.

Is there any plugin or feature that allows me to create custom user groups?

I need to say group A is allowed to view forum xyz, while group B is not allowd to do so. (im already using Hidden Forums to prevent serval forum from being seen from those who are not logged in)

I hope you get what I mean.

thanks in advance

btw, my forum rulord.de

bbPress permalinks still not working for me.

I have also a wordpress installation with the same hosting company on the same account. Rewrite works perfectly.

My bbPress site 0.9.04:

I tried ‘MultiViews’ and the ‘generated Rewrite rules’ in my .htacess file and nothing gets the pretty links to work. The html links are generated well but the pages are not found.

There must be something else. Any hints for me?

I am not into the Unix stuff too much and I am wondering if .htaccess files need a kind of ‘server restart’ or etc.???

When I installed bbPress I also needed to add a line that instructs the server to use PHP5 instead of prev. versions. The bbPress requirements spoke always about PHP >4.3… so that was not right as well. I am wondering if the permalink stuff is may be not 100% at this point.

Besides of that… bbPress is definitely a super cool product from you WP guys! It rocks and finally brings a good looking message board on the plate. Good work. Thanks!

I appreciate a help re. the permalinks.

Frank

i have wp 2.7 working fine with 1.0 alpha 6, as do some other users. i don’t remember doing anything special apart from manually pasting all the wordpress keys into the bbpress config file. the automatic config didn’t write anything to the files. it all worked fine once i did it manually.
