Where do you see “Hot Topics”? I see Hot Tags and Latest Discussions. Which one do you want to hide?

Yes, it’s possible. You need to find the section in your template that displays them, then just remove that section. For Latest Discussions, it’s in the template file front-page.php. Removing that whole section won’t hurt anything.

If you remove Hot Tags, you will have a big white space over there. After removing that from the template file, you might want to adjust the CSS to make the other part of the page wider so it uses the space where the tags used to be.

Basically, it’s all done in your template files. If you’re using the stock template, you should make a copy of that, then make your modifications there.

Hi all

I have the same problems with wp 2.7 and bbpress 1.0.6 alpha, if I login in wordpress it logout in bbpress and viceversa.

I have put in wp-config and bb-press the same auth key – secure key and logged in key

the salts too in installation of bbpress (i have take that from wp-admin/options)

and then i have added in wp-config.php

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ”);

define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

and in the bb-config.php

// Start integration speedups

// WordPress database integration speedup

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’;

$bb->user_bbdb_name = ”;

$bb->user_bbdb_user = ”;

$bb->user_bbdb_password = ”;

$bb->user_bbdb_host = ”;

$bb->user_bbdb_charset = ”;

$bb->user_bbdb_collate = ”;

$bb->custom_user_table = ”;

$bb->custom_user_meta_table = ”;

// WordPress cookie integration speedup

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://mydomain’;

$bb->wp_home = ‘http://mydomain’;

$bb->cookiedomain = ”;

$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;

$bb->authcookie = ‘wordpress_66640defe2164fce559625e843fb6d04’;

$bb->secure_auth_cookie = ‘wordpress_sec_66640defe2164fce559625e843fb6d04’;

$bb->logged_in_cookie = ‘wordpress_logged_in_66640defe2164fce559625e843fb6d04’;

$bb->admin_cookie_path = ‘/forum/bb-admin’;

$bb->core_plugins_cookie_path = ‘/forum/bb-plugins’;

$bb->user_plugins_cookie_path = ‘/forum/my-plugins’;

$bb->sitecookiepath = ‘/’;

$bb->wp_admin_cookie_path = ‘/wp-admin’;

$bb->wp_plugins_cookie_path = ‘/wp-content/plugins’;

// End integration speedups

Any Solutions? Really Thanks

@chrishajer: Do you know if the next release of bbPress will have integration with the later WP versions? I wish I’d just kept my old installation. ):

[my-apartment-map]

So I’ve done some more integration of bb-press as the user backend of my site. I’m just posting if anyone in the future is interested in this type of integration and to see how I’ve done it.

I’ve added a Sign in or Register link to the header on every page on my site. I used the Thickbox library with jquery to produce those non obtrusive popups that don’t get blocked because they don’t create a new browser window. (http://www.myapartmentmap.com, Click on the “Sign in” link to see it)

I recreated the sign in form and post to the same URL as you would if you were signing into bbpress. I created a new hidden field called “loginSmall” that tells me if the user is logging in from the small box or the regular forum login. If I detect that the login is from the small box I redirect the user to a new page after the login. This new page closes the Thickbox popup and refreshes the current users page.

So in effect, the user can login from any page on my site without leaving the page. I still have a few small bugs to work out but overall it works pretty well. The biggest downside is that my registration page still looks a little like its the forum registration. I tried to dress it up to make it look like the site registration.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

[maxelmagic]

Righto, same as the title suggests, I was wondering if there is a way to either hide the Hot Topics section on bbpress, or if there is a way to get rid of it completely if there isn’t a way to hid em?

[chrishajer]

What version of bbPress did you try to install?

I’ve seen it before but I’ve figured out why it happens.

This was related to PHP4:

The bbPress 0.9* series is designed for integration with WordPress up to 2.5.1.

[chrishajer]

How about the “Approve User Registration” plugin:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/approve-user-registration/

[elizawhat]

I’m having the same problem, but I’m using WP 2.6 and bbPress 0.9.0.4.

I installed and integrated bbPress with WP a month or so ago and everything went fine. I can’t get it working with a fresh installment.

[Michael Alexander Freund]

I’ve tried to install bbPress in a several different locations, but i always get an errormessage at Step4:

---

Installation failed! The database failed to install. You may need to replace bbPress with a fresh copy and start again. Referrer is OK, beginning installation…

Step 1 – Creating database tables

>>> Database installation failed!!!

>>>>>> Halting installation!

---

I cleared the database tables also and retried to install. But with no success. We use PHP 5+ and MySQL 4.1 on Suse Linux. I also tried to chmod some directories. No success.

As i took a closer look at the code, i can report that the errors is thrown from class-install.php on line 1513: $alterations = bb_install(); after doing a print_r on the alterations array, i can see it has now values.

EDIT:

further debugging shows the following errors:

Key master could not be created!

Forum could not be created!

So it seems, that the forum couldn be created. If i create it manually. The frontend works. but when i try to login to the admin panel, i always get redirected to the frontend without an error.

maybe this could help…

Hi

This may sound like an odd thing to do, but I’m intending to adapt bbpress to enable members to self-register and upload articles for review, and only Admins see these posts. (Therefore, _ck_’s Hidden Forum and Attachments plugins are great, as are the Instant_Password & Human_Test).

Though to stream-line this further: when a person registers, they post/upload there article in an a Submissions forum, but I don’t want anyone else (apart from admins) to see this type of post.

Could the bozo setting be used? That is, when a person registers, there status is by default bozo, therefore no other registered users can see this post.

Can this work, and how to default a registered user as bozo?

thanks

[circuit]

has anyone got any further with this yet? i’m moving from vanilla to bbpress today and i’d really like to bring all the vanilla threads with me.

[John James Jacoby]

Using the method above, a new user registering in WordPress is given the proper role/capability in bbPress. So far this appears to be the best integration yet. I will of course do more testing, but so far so good!

Note: This also proves compatible with the WordPress “Register Plus” plugin.

[marcoapaulo]

Anyone?!

[johnhiler]

Just a heads up – you probably want to use the “Hidden Forums” plugin instead of “Private Forums”:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/hidden-forums/

As one user put it, “The plug-in is great, but somehow it turns off randomly”. That exact same thing happened to me twice, before I got fed up. Each time it happened, I almost had a heart attack!

“Hidden Forums” is a better version of the plugin, and has no reports of that bug.

But to use gravatar its necessary a gravatar account. I forgot to mention something: in bbpress, I’m using Avatar Upload, so no one needs to have an extra account to use a avatar.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

You could use Gravatar, and then they’re the same all over.

Unfortunately bbPress version is extremely different to determine, however the point is moot as there are technically only two now, no?

Very few people still using 0.8.x unless they have hacked the core and they are stuck.

Personally I am waiting for 5.3.0 to be final and stable before going to 5.x

Until then, 5.x is slower than 4.4.x

Hi there

As said in the topic title, how can I use bbpress avatars on wordpress comments? I have bbpress and wordpress on the same database.

Is there anyway to do this?

Someone told me to use User Photo, but I couldnt make it work… and I was wondering if existed some kind of code to add so wordpress could call the avatar from bbpress.

Thank you

As of today, Alpha6 is still not in the download link.

This method above is what I used to upgrade to alpha6. Have not tested new users yet however.

[aboutonlinetips]

Chrishajer,

I installed again and it seamlessly integrated with wordpress blog.

I installed bbpress-0.9.0.3 with WordPress version 2.6.1

Many thanks for your support

Good call that – validating the CSS seems to have let me do what I wanted. Thanks!

Hey,

Thanks for the Reply…

I guess i may have to wait, but in the mean time, Is there ay pages available to see existing HOOKS on bbpress 0.9+. I guess it may help with testing randomly. who knows, I may get lucky
