Hi I have a forum http://peopleandlanguages.com/ I used the kakumei template and changed the image. Besides that its a pretty easy install and like bbpress. I am using the alpha 1.0 However,

I try to log out I get this: Thank you.

Database error: []

SELECT * FROM bb_online WHERE user_id = LIMIT 1

Hello,

I was wondering if you can install BBPress and a Yahoo merchant Store?

any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Kent

[kehlers]

excellent – thanks!

[meitershaker]

no i have a default install of bbpress 1.0 trunk. and yes, the javascript is not loaded, why?

[_ck_]

No, if you have bbpress and wordpress integrated, and you are with bbPress 0.9, you should stick with WordPress 2.5 because that’s the only version that works with bbPress 0.9

There is nothing wrong with WP 2.5 and no need to upgrade to 2.6, because if you do, you’ll need bbPress 1.0 alpha which is unstable and has bugs.

[_ck_]

Okay, carefully edit your /etc/my.cnf (ask if you don’t know how to edit) and REPLACE what’s in there with this:

[mysqld]

max_connections = 400

key_buffer = 16M

myisam_sort_buffer_size = 32M

join_buffer_size = 1M

read_buffer_size = 1M

sort_buffer_size = 2M

table_cache = 1024

thread_cache_size = 286

interactive_timeout = 25

wait_timeout = 1000

connect_timeout = 10

max_allowed_packet = 16M

max_connect_errors = 10

query_cache_limit = 1M

query_cache_size = 16M

query_cache_type = 1

tmp_table_size = 16M

skip-innodb

[mysqld_safe]

open_files_limit = 8192

[mysqldump]

quick

max_allowed_packet = 16M

[myisamchk]

key_buffer = 32M

sort_buffer = 32M

read_buffer = 16M

write_buffer = 16M

[mysqlhotcopy]

interactive-timeout

After you edit it you’ll need to restart the mysql engine by typing this in the ssh:

service mysql restart

(optionally there’s also a mysql restart in cpanel)

Then do a couple of refreshes on your bbPress pages and it should seem a bit zippier.

[_ck_]

For now you should be okay with cpanel and whm – they do make life much easier running a server. There are things we can fine tune eventually.

However you have one HUGE problem.

You have no mysql cache enabled, at all!

When we get it fixed you will see a big difference in bbpress (and wordpress) performance.

[clementine]

Thanks a lot for your help _ck_, I’m doing all the changes you said… bbpress config file and super cache…

That’s what I get when I type the command:

root@node2 [~]# cat /etc/my.cnf

[mysqld]

skip-bdb

skip-innodb

I’m on 0.9.0.2 bbPress version…

[_ck_]

The cookies in bbPress 1.0 and WordPress 2.6 are based on recommendations from a security whitepaper by a top researcher.

Half of the key used in the cookie is kept in the database and the other half of the key is kept in the configuration file (bb-config.php / wp-config.php)

The idea is to make it harder for an attacker to compromise the system. They may gain file access but not db access or visa versa – therefore the other half is safe.

When I say “half” it’s not literal – but essentially the secret keys are “salted” with the secret salt. “Salting” is a much more complex operation than needs to be explained here (see wikipedia).

[Detective]

Probably your installation is not loading the javascript libraries. Are you using WordPress’ header instead of the bbPress one?

[_ck_]

Okay I’ve figured out why it happens.

It’s a very serious flaw in how the new 1.0 db caching system works. Apparently they now suddenly base everything about the WHERE clause. If the clause is slightly different for any two queries, it doesn’t use the cache and instead does it a direct db query. It’s stupid.

There is absolutely no way I can fix it in the plugin, it has to be fixed inside bbPress 1.0 and I am not sure if or when they will bother.

[_ck_]

Hidden Forums has not been tested yet again 1.0 alpha.

I simply don’t have time to modify every plugin for all the changes.

This is why people should not use the alpha yet for regular sites.

Update: I’m unable to reproduce your problem however.

I have no extra queries with using Hidden Forums on the 1.0 trunk. Are you using the Alpha from the download on bbpress.org, or are you using the SVN trunk?

[ddemeo]

How well do existing themes work with the latest alpha release? And is that likely to change with the final release? I’ve made lots of modifications to my existing theme, and would hate to have to start from scratch. (Although, admittedly, I knew I was running that risk using a beta release of bbpress!)

No

No

All the sitemap does is submit a list of URLs to a search engine. It doesn’t do anything else.

[cartmanffc]

this should be default option of bbPress

[cartmanffc]

bbPress Sitemap Generator 0.61

I had the plugin installed for some time and on one sunny day I couldn’t post any reply

I deactivated the plugin and everything went back to normal

[lstelie]

Hello,

I would add to the list :

Admin Can Post Anything 0.5

Ajaxed Quote (very last 1.0 release)

bbPress Attachments 0.1.11

bbPress Sitemap Generator 0.61

Google Analitycs 0.1

[lstelie]

Hello,

Works for me too

[benzilla069]

Weird, it works for me. What seems to be the problem with it?

[cartmanffc]

Do we really need the plugin for making sitemaps for search engines? Does it make bbPress forum more SEO friendly?

The one available is not working with 1.0 Alpha

[cartmanffc]

I thought it might be helpful; I tried the following popular plugins with the latest release of bbPress and they seem to work perfectly:

– bb-smilies

– bbcode-buttons

– mini-track

– my-views

– post-count-plus (with some minor changes)

– support-forum

– bb-reputation (to some extent)

– bb-signatures

– bb-topic-views

– bbcode-lite

– hidden-forums

– report-post

– unread-posts

what is missing most is the working plugin for quotes…

Nice list but I’ve always found function lists fairly useless, though I guess if you have zero experience with how bbPress or WordPress works, they can give you a starting point with something to browse through.

What really helps is a trace of how functions flow when a page is loaded and what files they are located in.

I have an experimental version of bb-benchmark that does something like this using a trace feature from WordPress 2.6 but it’s not available for public use yet.

[_ck_]

No, you cannot use bbPress 0.9 with WordPress 2.6

[leoleoleo]

Hi _CK_,

I just installed 1.0 alpha.Can WordPress 2.6.1 integration bbPress 0.9? If can, I’ll uninstall 1.0 Alpha and install 0.9? Is good?

[_ck_]

Show me your mysql configuration by doing this in your shell (ssh)

cat /etc/my.cnf

and copy what it returns to a post here or into pastebin.com

I suspect we can improve it. MySQL cache is very important to bbPress performance.
