The problem I’m having is that I’ve had is that my blog is 4 years old but I only started adding tags less than a year ago and bbpress install is only a few months old. So I’m adding new tags to old posts (because I’m a borderline obsessive compulsive organizer) and they’re becoming the top posts on bbpress even though they’re years old. I’m almost done, but it’s still crazy. If I were smart and had realized what was going to happen I’d’ve finished my tagging and then installed bbpress. But I’m not

Anyway, thanks for the tips and the info

thanks Chrishajer:

the opposition is that I’m not really develloper, I’m administrator systems but I like to program my website, but I have to tell you that I’m very happy to have bbpress forum in my web, but I had thought that inserting the ‘polemical’ target in question ) thought my forum will be completly perfect. Anyway…

Well, thank you to try to help me , I’m very gratefull to know you.

Thank you very much, I will visit this web frecuently to see more ..

Sincerelly , thank you sir.

Hopefully you’ve figured out you can use my “Post Count Plus” plugin to change the behavior of the link for the post author’s name.

There are plenty of threads/posts about this, try this:

Hiding Subforums’ Subforums from Subforum Pages

You want code like this:

<?php $forum_parent=$forum_id; ?>

<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?>

<?php if ($GLOBALS['forum']->forum_parent==$forum_parent) { ?>

<tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_forum_pad( '<div class="nest">' ); ?><a href="<?php forum_link(); ?>"><?php forum_name(); ?></a><small><?php forum_description(); ?></small><?php bb_forum_pad( '</div>' ); ?></td>

<td class="num"><?php forum_topics(); ?></td>

<td class="num"><?php forum_posts(); ?></td>

</tr>

<?php } ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

Mmm…no I’ve tried this: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101

And also the require_once that u’ve told me, but maybe I’m unlucky!

I’ve used no one include…have u got a link? Or can u tell me how to do it?

There are no error, but the script don’t function…in bbpress it create a message (“there are [number] new messages”), if I use it in wp it do nothing… (the functions are in the bbpress path)

Thaaaaaaaaaaaaanks!!

[chrishajer]

What have you done so far? Have you added the include bbpress line in wp-config.php? If so, please post your error message. Need more information to be able to help you.

It’s time to take another look at the (unofficial) bbPress Top 100 list! I’ve come up with some more advanced ways to find bbPress forums and I am pleased to announce the full list has broken 3,000 forums and provided for some new discoveries for the Top 100:

http://bbshowcase.org/forums/view/top100

(based on activity, not quality, which is subjective)

If you register/login you can also see the sites that may have just missed the top 100 via the top 1000:

http://bbshowcase.org/forums/view/top1000

August update was essentially aimed at finding new sites, not updating stats for existing sites. I’ll do a full re-analysis next month.

Some really nice looking sites among the bunch. I enabled “snapshots” so you can mouse-over their little logo and get a general preview. I hope to improve the list soon with the ability to vote on the design of any site.

Also new for this month is an attempt to guess what country the site is “aimed at” (not hosted in or TLD used). This is very difficult to determine and I estimate my automated route is currently correct only 70% of the time.

Some interesting statistics…

1) bbPress has been installed on at least 4000 sites

2) There are now at least 200 sites with over 1000 posts.

3) A bbPress forum will break one million posts late 2008

More analysis as I have time…

If I missed your site be sure to post it for the next update!

Try deactivating a few plugins at a time?

You now, I’ve deactivated first plugin and edititng started to work that plugin was your “Post Count Plus”. Don’t you know that’s the trouble?

Because that would be a nice one to share with others.

I also think so, so that I will write it… some day

[agl666]

_ck_

yes, of course, there’s no topic with 11178. Look:

1.http://forum.ttl79.ru/edit.php?id=11178

2.http://forum.ttl79.ru/topic.php?id=11178

First link points to post #11178 editing page, second to where it redirect. eg. post’s id is used for redirecting to topic.

To convert minibb base I haven’t writed any script, I’ve converted it simply by exporting db, changing something and importing. It know it was so foolish, but I’ve had a lot of time to play with it And you now, it was very easy: structures are so simple and similar

But as I’ve said, editing doesn’t work even with native bbPress posts (e.g. added via bbpress). If you wish, I can give you db’s dump.

[811038]

thank you Chrishajer: Excus me my bad english , I hope to explain better now:

I know that it’s a bad idea to modify some bbPress files , I know , I know. But my question is that I think I can insert the ‘target=”_blank” ‘ tag in the place qhere the php engine reads the user comment and shows it and the url link goes to a new window explorer.

you can see the exemple in my web, and I would like this link works in another window. Click on “BIENVENIDOS AL FORO !!!! ” and see the third comment of ” jcvandamm Admin Principal and there’s some url link:

thanks for your help and if you can tell me something, please, sincerelly do it:

[agl666]

I’ve installed bbPress 0.9.0.2 (the last one), converted db from miniBB, writed new topic (e.g. it happens even to native bbPress content) but when I press ” Edit” (which points to http://forum.ttl79.ru/edit.php?id=11178), it redirects me to http://forum.ttl79.ru/topic.php?id=11178, and of course, error page with “Topic not found.” message. What can I do with it?

PS. I have

Try editing your bb-config.php file and put in a line like this:

$bb->uri = 'http://your-domain-name.com/forum-path/';

It may also require a forced change of your cookiepath if you can’t login.

[_ck_]

I agree on the registration process which can be done by forcing the links on one side to the other but I could not disagree more with “Editing a wordpress post that didn’t exist on the bbpress side would still create a post on bbpress, but it’d date it for when the wordpress post was created, not when the edit took place.”

I can’t fathom people who do that. WordPress is for One-To-Many posting and bbPress is for Many-To-Many posting.

What bbPress needs instead is a “promote-to-front-page” option where the front page becomes a descriptive list of topics with summaries that have been marked by admin as worthy for the front page. It’s yet another plugin that I want to write but don’t have time for right now.

ok — I’m a newbie to bbpress, and a relative newbie to wordpress, so please bear with me.

I have wordpress installed in my site’s root directory. I installed bbpress into root/bbpress. I made all the needed settings to changes to call the wp headers from my bb-config file, and vice versa.

Then, I made a newbie mistake of trying to rename my bbpress folder to root/forums, and also changed the setting in my bbpress admin > settings of my bbpress directory to “root/forums.” (thinking this would somehow magically just work) Now, when I try to access my bbpress admin page, I simply get redirected to my wordpress homepage. It seems that the header information is screwed up now, I suspect it has something to do with the filenames and absolute paths, but I have no idea how to fix it or to begin diagnosing it.

Please help!

[chrishajer]

If you want to call bbPress functions from WordPress, you need to include bbPress in WordPress. It’s described here for including WordPress inside bbPress. You would do the opposite to include bbPress in WordPress (make the changes to wp-config.php and require_once('path/to/bb-load.php')

[chrishajer]

bbPress is not currently compatible with WordPress 2.6 for integrated installations:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101#post-17409

[patrace]

I updated WordPress to 2.6 and now the config file doesn’t have a SECRET_KEY for me to match when integrating bbpress. Instead I have these fields:

---

AUTH_KEY

SECURE_AUTH_KEY

LOGGED_IN_KEY

How does this work now?

[kirabug]

By that definition, the categories and tags would also be matching/transparent and the back-end UI (where visible) would match. Editing a wordpress post that didn’t exist on the bbpress side would still create a post on bbpress, but it’d date it for when the wordpress post was created, not when the edit took place. They’d use identical login pages and registration pages out of the box instead of forcing me to spend hours hacking together a template, or better yet would find a way to leverage the templates (especially the CSS tags) so that the UI would look closer to transparent, and the “comments count” on the wordpress side would work.

So like said, dual log-in is the least of my integration problems.

I’m still learning PHP but plan to at some point down the road dip in to the dev side to try to help, so these aren’t criticisms so much as “kirabug’s someday to-do list”.

[eporedieis]

On the plugin page there is this script to view new messages

<?php if (bb_current_user_can(‘write_posts’)) : ?>

<?php pm_fp_link(); ?>

<?php endif; ?>

In bbpress is all ok. But what can i do to view new messages also in wordpress? Anyone can help me? Thank u all!!

[chrishajer]

Can you create an image showing exactly where in the header you want the button? You can just scribble on one of these screenshots, showing where you want the button to be. I am unclear on what the correct position for the button is.

Here are two screenshots, IE7 and FF3. Is either correct?

IE7

FF3

I think putting that button outside the header by using a negative margin is a bad thing to do. It also seems to me that a button is probably not a very ‘usable’ solution to return to the home page of the website. Why not a text link in the header, or in the footer?

If you are set on the button hanging off to the left of the forum in the header, then please describe which of the two screenshots is closer to or exactly what you want.

[_ck_]

Well the definition of integration is that the two softwares operate as one. If a user has to log in twice, then they do not perceive the website operating as one big system but two different programs.
