I had to start a new topic as it said my previous topic was closed:

I did a fresh install on another website, this time combining both databases as described in the screencast someone did here on the forum, and this install is also not giving a role in WP when signed up to the forum or a role in the forum when registered in WP.

It is the same server, it is running PHP v5.2.6 and MYSQL v5.0.67-community

So it seems to be a problem on my whole server. Hmmmm…

Try the User Photo plugin. It is available for bbPress and WordPress:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/user-photo-for-bbpress/

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-photo/

It worked easily for me. Just need to make the right settings – set the same paths to image folders and keep the original function calls to avatars if you want to use Gravatars when available.

How about undoing what you did and see if it works again? Sounds like whatever you did broke it somehow.

What are “both” bbPress plugins for WordPress?

[Ganzuelo]

I got alpha to work,. I then installed both bbpress plugins for wordpress. I went back to change user options in the bbpress admin panel and error messages came up.. goto http://willclan4food.net for details.. The error codes are popping up there

Hi everyone

My question is simple… I want to use the bbpress avatars on the wordpress comments page, so when a member is logged in and comment on wordpress, the page gets the avatar he’s using in bbpress. How can I do it?

Thank you

[chrishajer]

I see you’ve already asked here which is the proper location:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-ratings/page/2/

[Ganzuelo]

I am running the alpha and I was in the middle of the intergration and I got this error. Now I cannot log into my site. it wants me to register.,.

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock’ (2) in /nfs/c03/h04/mnt/57391/domains/willclan4food.net/html/bbpress/bb-includes/backpress/class.bpdb.php on line 123

Hello,

I’ve been using bbPress for over a year now and it has been working fine until recently.

I received the following error:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 92160 bytes)

I’m unsure of how to fix this error. If anyone can help that would be great.

[displayname]

I’ve tried to install bb-ratings on bbPress 1.0 (with the _ck_ replacement on line 205) but it doesn’t work. I tired it also on the stable bbPress 0.9 but that didn’t work either. I’m clueless where to start. I know it must be a good plugin and it also works on this site, so why doesn’t it work for me?

[gelincikonline]

WordPress : 2.7

bbPress : 1.0 Alpha 4

Can not login user, just login admin for bbPress.

[Ganzuelo]

I had the stable version 9.03? And I thought it was integrated with my word press. I then went to do the upgrade to the latest version and the Admin area was all screwy. I have the day off so I decided uh I can just start over, deleted word press, deleted bbpress I got wordpress back and now I cant get bbpress going.. i use vista Firefox and I am getting a loop redirect error and I cant get by it

[johnhiler]

_ck_ wrote a Super Search plugin that’s much more advanced than the normal search:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/super-search/

I haven’t tried it out yet but it looks pretty cool!

[hotforwords]

I am having a serious problem, when a person registers on WP, they get no role on BBPress and vice versa.

I have the role mapping set properly.

What I have different is that BBPress has its own database but gets the user info from the WP database.

Is this bad? If so, is there a way to move my bbpress database into the WP database?

Or.. can I just solve this no roles being assigned problem?

Thanks so much!

There was a recent discussion about how awful search is:

There was also an unrelated discussion that became related to search (at WordPress.org and bbPress.org):

Yea I have a similar problem. A sticky in a subforum (not sticky to front) makes the topic disappear from the subforum. It does still show up in the latest discussion on the frontpage. Can’t sticky posts in individual subforums though.

thanks for the reply Trent.

Can you just confirm that the user database that I’ve built up in bbPress will crossover to the WPMU? I’m sure I read somewhere that the users needed to come from the WP user table.

[Trent Adams]

WPMU 2.6.5 will have not integrate with bbPress 0.9.0.3. Anything past WP or WPMU 2.5 would need the 1.0 alpha series of bbPress to integrate properly. Of course, the risk is that they are not final versions of software packages. I actually use both WPMU 2.7 beta2 and bbPress 1.0 alpha 4 on a couple installs and works great, but there are always bugs.

Long story short, it would be safest to just stay with WPMU 2.6.5 and create a “2nd” install of bbPress with another database, (keeping your original one completely intact) and upgrade the “2nd” install to bbPress 1.0 alpha 4. If you find it works and integrates nicely with 2.6.5 for you then great. When WPMU 2.7 comes out it will also need the 1.0 series as well.

Jim Groom has a wonderful post that is also a good read on the integration side.

Good luck!

Generally what I do is just edit your template to change the code on register.php to just have the registration page either redirect to your wordpress registration or have a link on it. If you use the default theme, just copy it into /my-templates/ and edit the register.php file of your theme. That seems to be the easiest as it then never shows the bbPress registration form.

[Trent Adams]

This site has the forums run on bbPress and the Blog run with WordPress. The navigation and “look and feel” really is just done through the template that you decide to go with. Best part about bbPress is the templates generally are created with CSS so you can do whatever you want to do. bbPress and WordPress do integrate logins and cookies which is nice, but the design really is not that bad as well.

[Ganzuelo]

I can answer question 2 and say yes it does!

[mbeckner]

Please pardon the stupid noob post. I am completely new to this area of technology. I am looking for a solution which will function as a corporate portal/intranet.

I like the horizontal tabs as featured on this site. My site would have tabs with company news, policies and procedures, links, blog(s), and of course discussion forums. I am also expecting to have flexible layout capabilities…multiple columns, etc.

With that in mind, I have two questions:

1. Is the entire bbpress.org site strictly bbpress, or does it also utilize WordPress?

2. Does bbPress allow for multiple moderators? Our discussion forums will be devoted to various topics, with subject matter experts within the company moderating.

2. W

I am going to talk to the regex gurus at work tomorrow and see if some sushi is motivation enough for them. There needs to be a complete conversion from path to normal get parameters.

[Ganzuelo]

Is there a way to deactivate new users but still allow them to sign up through wordpress side? I found that If I create a user on bbpress it doesnt show in wordpress but it will show if a wordpress user is coming to the forums?

[anotherdan]

Lighttpd “pro” – thanks but im not, hehe… Anyways it was me on irc the other day, I have bbPress running now, and have made a few changes to the the rewrite rules, I found exactly some errors regarding some urls needing more parameters…

This is how it looks now:

http://lab.anotherdan.com/conf/bbpress-rewrite.conf.txt

I havent been through it all but at least some it works (Note this also contains some of the custom rewriting im doing for this install)
