bbPress’s search is horrible (also in WordPress).

There essentially is no advanced search at all.

I have a Super-Search plugin that I’ve never finished and may go back one day to look at it when I have some time.

Just finished some integration for a website I run. Added a few of ck’s awesome plug-ins. :tip of the hat:

Still need to smooth the bugs out of the registration/login process before I will be 100% happy. I need to use a specific registration plug-in on the WordPress side that bbPress doesn’t play nice with.

I can get into the dashboard of BBpress, but when I click on “Settings” or any other link in the dashboard, it goes back to that “not found” page from WP.

Looks like you have permalinks enabled but not configured. You can turn off permalinks in your admin (set them to none) or you can configure your server:

https://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks

Try turning them to none first, to see if that truly is the problem.

I have renamed bbpress’s folder to something called “collectibles-talk”. I have this folder in my root along with WP. I do not have them integrated, they are separate, both using there own database.

When I click on any of the forum topics, say “Please Introduce Yourself”, it takes me back to my WP website, a 404 page. Any ideas? Here is my website’s forum, so you can see what I am talking about: http://collectibleswow.com/collectibles-talk/

Click on a forum topic.

Thanks

Hello, I’ve just messed up my work. I had WP in root and BB under /bbpress directory but I’ve decided to use BB in root and WP under /blog directory because BB suits my needs better. So I moved it around / changed the setting of both to reflect the new URL… but I can’t log in BB, it says user “admin” doesn’t exist (admin was originally created for WP which I installed first).

My BB homepage says:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock’ (2) in /home/home1/novapojistovna_cz/public_html/www/bb-includes/backpress/class.bpdb.php on line 123

Warning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/home1/novapojistovna_cz/public_html/www/bb-includes/backpress/class.bpdb.php on line 377

Now where do I start to fix it? Please help, thank you.

hello,

im not sure, but i guess this is the right place to get this “bbpress.org” theme for bbpress, or is there a another spot to download this template?

thanks a ton

Thanks for your post electroniques, it helps for my problem.

[John James Jacoby]

Looks good enough to me, although I haven’t checked the source to see exactly how you did it.

[chrishajer]

Interestingly, I just replied to a thread, but it doesn’t show up. Then I added a couple tags to that thread, and they don’t show up. I know I did it all. I will check tomorrow to see if the content shows up. This is the worst I’ve seen. Normally it’s visible within 20 or 30 seconds. This has been a few minutes now.

after install, several broken links

UPDATE: after 5 minutes, now my reply is there and so are the tags. Weirdness.

Looks like you have permalinks enabled but not configured. You can turn off permalinks in your admin (set them to none) or you can configure your server:

See this part of the plugin, you need to change the bb_add_filter and bb_add_actionto justadd_filterandadd_action`

/******************************************************************************

* - Define for bbPress interface

*****************************************************************************/



$bbemoticons = & new bbEmoticons();



bb_add_filter('post_text', array(&$bbemoticons, 'convert_smilies'));

//bb_head is not called always. 

//bb_add_action('bb_head', array(&$bbemoticons, 'bb_grins_head'));

bb_add_action('bb_feed_head', array(&$bbemoticons, 'bb_grins_head'));

bb_add_action('bb_grins', array(&$bbemoticons, 'bb_grins'));

i like the idea ck. Why not take it one step further and allow voting to promote it to the front page, ala digg.

I want people to be able to post to the front page without any approval. Kinda a no holds bar approach.

[mzimmers]

I’m putting this under installation because it’s never been “good” on my install. Several of the links from my home page are broken. Did I do something wrong with the install? It looks like bbpress may be trying to use a string as a full pathname instead of a relative path; perhaps one too many “/” snuck in somewhere?

Thanks…

Lester Chan has written a really good plugin along these lines for WordPress:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-email/

It’s GPL, so maybe it’s something that could be adapted for bbPress?

[mithrandir321]

I can see there’s no plugin like that yet, however can anybody just hint as to what backpress functions I can use in order to hardcode this myself? I’m learning the php + bbpress stuff quite fast so I’d give it a whirl with a little help.

Think it may come useful for others as well.

[cosmich]

hey ck

that suggestion didn’t make sense to me, since as i mentioned in my last post, the errors refer to my WordPress users table, not bbPress. still, after i worked out how i could change table names without using a query, i did as you said. the result was the same errors i got in my original post.

however as i now knew how to change table names, what Chris had said earlier suggested that i should try adding the database name as a table prefix to my WP users table. i did that, and when i tried to log in, one of the errors was gone. however the other error that came up was that bbPress was now looking for my WP usermeta table. so again i added the database name as a prefix to that and i was in!

unfortunately, while i got in with admin access, i no longer had access to the settings, so i couldn’t delete the database prefix to the tables.

i’ve decided that this is becoming such a mishmash that i’m going to uninstall bbPress and reinstall it again, trying to avoid the error with the database prefix. in any case, thanks to both of you and Chris for your help, i learnt some handy things in the process!

Just upgrade from bbpress 0.8 to bbPress 1.0-alpha-2 released.

database upgrade is successful. however, found an issue about tag removal.

user can add tags, however, as an admin, if I want to remove tags, it forward to a webpage:

like:

http://www.travelsuperlink.com/forum/tag-remove.php?tag=387&user=20350&_wpnonce=15badfc986

error message is:

Your attempt to remove this tag from this topic has failed.

Please try again.

I searched in the forum and found one similar post, but no answer yet. any idea? thanks.

[travelsuperlink]

thanks, _ck_, I tried do_actiion, but still no luck.

as you suggested, I move this post to the thread you recommend.

[travelsuperlink]

as _ck_ suggested, I move my issue here:

Just upgrade bbpress to 1.0 version, after active the bbpress smilies plugin I found an issue for previous post-form.php (previously I am using v0.8 and that plugin works.

The issue is at post-form.php, in my custom template directory.

<label for=”post_content”><?php _e(‘Post:’); ?>

<?php do_action(‘bb_grins’); ?>

<textarea name=”post_content” cols=”50″ rows=”8″ id=”post_content” tabindex=”3″>

<?php bb_quote_message(); ?>

</textarea>

</label>

Clearly <?php do_action(‘bb_grins’); ?> does not work anymore, because at the top of post form user can not see the smilies as before.

any idea? thanks.

[_ck_]

There is no bb_do_action, only do_action.

bb_do_action has been removed.

Are you talking about the plugin created in this thread:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/emoticons-for-bbpress

Why not post your question there, where it will actually be relevant?

[travelsuperlink]

Just upgrade bbpress to 1.0 version, after active the bbpress smilies plugin I found an issue for previous post-form.php

<?php bb_do_action(‘bb_grins’); ?> does not work anymore. in another word, at the top of post form, user can not see the smilies which they can click on to select.

any idea? thanks.
