bbPress 0.9.0.2, WP 2.6.2, running on 2008 server

cookies may not work (due to the incompatibilities), but at least users can now log on just fine.

thanks for the link

Now I’m still faced with another problem : nobody can actually open a forum, post, profile or anything else,

(e.g. http://www.mysite.com/forum/forum.php?id=1)

then the page goes blank (browser looks like it’s trying to constantly reloading the page)

The admin panel works fine

This is a fresh install, integrated with WordPress, running in a separate folder (not as a subfolder of WP)

any ideas ?

or should I open an new post for this ?

[chrishajer]

What version of bbPress and WordPress did you integrate? There are cookie incompatibilities between some versions of bbPress and WordPress.

update

I have reinstalled bbpress in a new folder, outside the wordpress blog folder structure

the bbpress is integrated with the wordpress database, and uses the wordpress users

I have completed the installation, and I’m getting the first forum page, with the first forum, however I cannot log in (not with admin user, not with any other user). When clicking the “log in’ button, the page reloads and asks me to log in again

any ideas ?

I have installed bbPress in a subfolder of my wordpress blog.

Initial installation worked fine, integration seems to be ok (I can see wordpress users in my bbpress admin page etc)

When I try to open the first forum

http://www.mysite.com/forum/forum.php?id=1

then the page goes blank (browser looks like it’s trying to constantly reloading the page)

What is wrong here, how can I solve this ?

I installed BBcode Lite for bbPress and BBcode Buttons plugins in bbPress 1.0 Alpha. The URL button not work show the original code not URL.How to fix it? Thanks.

Hello,

I switched from Simple:Press to BBpress.

For a WP based site, Simple:Press is far more sophisticated and more integrated that current BBpress.

The reason that made me switched is that Simple:Press is a one man project. The day Andy decides to get a life Simple:Press will be dumped (like was some of his previeous excellent plugins).

On the other hand BBpress seems to get a new second life and is a promising project. I would ad that in its current stage it is very usable and works pretty well.

It’s always been that way. I think the tags are broken because they are imported from the plugin’s readme. It’s a customized copy of bbPress.

[citizenkeith]

I have subscribed to the rss feed for plugins with the _ck_ tag:

http://bbpress.org/plugins/rss/tags/_ck_/

But it doesn’t seem to work properly. There are plenty of plugins in this feed that don’t have the _ck_ tag.

WP-Forum changed to Simple: Press Forum?

It now also has some security problems including known SQL injection vulnerabilities.

Hello,

I am running WordPress 2.6.0 and bbPress 0.9.0.2 and I am not able to get the cookies to work. Know matter what I do I have to login to the forum even though I am logged into wordpress.

I have read and tried the documentation and the posts in this forum and still can’t figure it out.

I am willing to pay for some help on this if you feel you can fix it. I will pay via Paypal.

Note that WP 2.5 / bbPress 0.9 uses a SINGLE key

WP 2.6 / bbPress 1.0 uses THREE different keys

[chrishajer]

I think you could probably do a recount in the admin panel as well:

http://www.example.com/bbpress/bb-admin/site.php

There’s a “Recount” tab there that might help.

If you want to also use [pre] then you have to also edit the bbcode plugin to translate that tag too.

Hmm, this is strange, I have ‘pre’ in the allow extra tags list but it’s not being added.

Update: argh, bbPress unsets “pre” and “br”

Alright, if you want bbcode processed in code/backtick sections, simply comment out this line in the plugin:

// if (preg_match_all("|<code>(.*?)</code>|sim", $text, $backticks)) {foreach ($backticks[0] as $backtick) {++$counter; $text=str_replace($backtick,"_bbcode_lite_".$counter."_",$text);}}

It’s right under

$counter=0;

Hi,

I’ve just installed bbPress, played around with it, created/deleted some posts & threads. Now that I’m done, I deleted both threads that I created (2 posts per each), however now my forum is reporting “0 topics, 4 posts” on the index page (http://forums.mudlet.org/).

Any way to fix this?

[_ck_]

I don’t understand what you are trying to do.

IMHO, anything between code (or backticks) should ALWAYS be seen raw, unfiltered.

If you need a tag similar to CODE, why not add the PRE tag to bbPress’s allowed tags. bbCode will work between PRE tags.

This is my installation structure

|–mydomain.comwordpressbbpress

I am using WP 2.5.1. and bbpress 0.9

1) Can someone please elaborate steps 3, 4, 5? They’re very vague.

2) What do I do about cookies if my structure is like above?

I pasted:

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ”);

define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/wordpress/’);

per the instructions listed in “settings -> WordPress Integration”

How do I know if the cookies are working correctly?

I have the other steps down correctly. I simply got lost at 3,4,5 and don’t know what to paste in my wp-config.php.

Any other tips will also be helpful. Thanks.

You may be logged in as admin, but whichever user you are logged in as does not have the authority to administer the forum. I think think that’s why you get redirected.

Does this help?

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/keymaster-lost-after-integration

Do other links work and just the admin link redirects you to the home page? If other links do not work, you might have issues with permalinks and the mod_rewrite rules.

[mrosenau]

You go here to get your “secret key” (there’s three of them. https://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/

define(‘AUTH_KEY’, …

define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, …

define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, …

you place these in your wordpress wp-config.php file where the empty one were.

Then you post the keys inside the secret key box in the bb press installation wizard.

Or if you missed that part and your putting it directly into your bb-config.php file

you replace: define(‘BB_SECRET_KEY’, …

and everything after in on that LINE.

with: your three secret keys.

and that should fix everything, …that is if you have all your other wordpress – bbpress integration stuff lined up correctly

By the way, if you are asking yourself if it’s worth this much trouble getting eAccelerator to work, the answer is definitely yes. It will give you a very nice speed boost in bbPress and WordPress.

Since your server is very standardized as Cpanel + PHP 4.4.8 I am virtually positive we can get this going.

I’ve just setup bbpress 1.0 with wordpress 2.6.1. The install went fine and I’m logged in as an admin but I’m having a few issues.

First I cannot get to the admin control panel, when I click the admin link, or enter the url to the admin panel I am taken to the forum index.

Second issue (not sure if they are linked) is when I click add post, or want to reply to a post the text entry box / form is not there.

Anyone able to help me fix these issues?

Many thanks.

Hi,

I reskinned a previous bbPress install to match the look of another site. Check it out:

main site is http://www.papercraftmuseum.com/

bbPress is at http://www.papercraftmuseum.com/pcmforum/

I reskinned my other bbPress from http://dreampush.com/forums/

notice the similarity?

[Tom Lynch]

I see. Thanks
