I’m using the Kakumei Blue theme. I can’t understand how this could happen, but without my doing anything, overnight the header on my forum has changed when viewed in IE – it remains as it should when using Firefox.
A navigation button I positioned (by messing with some numbers in some CSS code that Chris kindly provided) has shifted to the right so that it is now too close to the User Name.
But most strangely, the forum name has shifted so that it now overlaps the “Login” box. This was perfect until now, as you’d expect, since it’s part of the original design – I just typed in the name of the blog in the space provided in Admin.
Here’s the link, which will make it clear what I’m saying (open with IE): http://ashb.proofreadercentral.com/bbpress/

Can anyone offer any explanation for this stuff? More importantly, how do I get the header back to what it was yesterday given that I haven’t actually changed anything in the meantime? I’m afraid that if I start tampering with the CSS again, I’ll end up messing up the header in Firefox as well!
Cheers

We have WordPress acting as a CMS and we’re using bbPress for the forums:
I’ve decided that I’m happy with the way my forum and blog are set up. Users can use the same username and password for both my forum and blog. But, they can not log into one and automatically be logged into the other (cookie issues).
The main problem is the way I integrated my bbpress and wordpress. I already had bbpress installed, then later I installed wordpress. I then integrated the two and they share the same database. I hear from many that this is NOT the recommended way to integrate and that you shouldn’t use the same database, but, the bottom line is, everything works fine, but users can’t log in at one and then automatically be logged in at the other, they just have to log in twice if they are using both my blog and forum.
Can anyone provide instructions/tips on how to set up the cookies for bbpress and wordpress if they were integrated backwards and are sharing one database?

Nothing special. Basically a bbpress support forum design straight out of the box (until we decide whether it’s successful enough to warrant investing time in our own design). But we call it home.
Hi,
I have the following code that works in wordpress:
<?php $homepage = get_settings('siteurl')."/search.php/";
global $wp;
$wp_received_argument = false;
foreach ($wp->query_vars as $k=>$v) if ($v) $wp_received_argument = true;
if ($wp_received_argument) require(TEMPLATEPATH . “/index.php”);
else { wp_redirect($homepage);
exit(); } ?>Now this wont work in bbpress, so I’ve made some modifications:
<?php $homepage = bb_get_option( 'uri' )."/search.php/";
global $bb;
$bb_received_argument = false;
foreach ($bb->query_vars as $k=>$v) if ($v) $bb_received_argument = true;
if ($bb_received_argument) require(TEMPLATEPATH . “/index.php”);
else { bb_redirect($homepage);
exit(); } ?>It now crashes at the foreach. What am I missing?
Thx
Hello: I do not know of a wpmu plugin to assist and my knowledge of the working of the db tables is limited (cannot succeed with SQL queries very well – always error).
Okay, that said. Initially I had WPMU db and added BBPress version 0.9.0.2 to the same DB – and all started out ok but then when I logged in (ADmin or otherwise) to BBPress, or “clicked” a forum link, the homepage of my wpmu blog showed up (http://teach-eng.com/wpmu and now also …com/bbpress).
YIKES NOTE: This same problem still persists when I click on a forum link
http://teach-eng.com/wpmu/bbpress/forum/1 (or any page link on the forum)…
Links only go to the WPMU blog and not stay with the forum at
http://teach-eng.com/wpmu/bbpress/#
So I reinstalled (having already reinstalled bbpress into the WPMU subfolder) BBpress using a different DB – same subfolder via ftp – and all is ok – I just changed/added the “integration” for wp settings with BBPress.
Now what? Well, this install was an ‘opt-out’ for using RS Discuss since I could not work well with the tables in phpAdmin for features to allow settings to show up on the backend.
Okay, so my question – How to create a working blog page in WPMU rather than “loading” BBPress with WPMU (have read on forum this is not a great idea and my webhost is not strong, easily creates 404 errors)…
I could I understand, create a “new template” in WPMU but how would I “embed” or “call up” the BBPress pages for the forums?
I could make separate pages for each forum (separate installs) with BBPress but for me it is ok to have one forum, different topics.
But, even with one BBPress forum, I can only create a page link as is in WPMU and would rather have a better way of showing the forum for each blog (there are 3 now)…
Can someone assist?
How to create a page in WPMU and use the BBPress so when a blogger clicks a “subpage” they will see the BBPress forum? I did set it up already so when a WPMU user logs into BBPress it will use their ID from WPMU (have not tested it yet,but nothing failed).
Okay, thanks for any help.
Claire
