I thought I’d jumped through all the hoops; I’ve managed to get everything integrated on the front end but when I go to access the forum admin section now I get a blank page.

Since being able to access the forum admin section I’ve changed <?php bb_get_header(); ?> to <?php get_header(); ?> in the bbPress theme files, moved require_once('../wp-blog-header.php'); up to the top of my config file.

If I remove require_once('../wp-blog-header.php'); from my config file I can access the admin section.

Any ideas?

Solved, my problem was I needed to change <?php bb_get_header(); ?> to <?php get_header(); ?> in the bbPress theme files, but I also needed to move require_once('../wp-blog-header.php'); up to the top of my config file.

It would be useful if both these aspects were mentioned in the Functions section of https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/

Who can I contact to suggest these changes to that page?

Hi,

I want to convert from my phpBB forum to bbPress however I need 1 more plugin to make it happen.

I need a Plugin for bbPress which will monitor RSS feed’s and post new items into bbPress as a post.

Does anyone know of a free plugin which does this today?

For WordPress, I’m using the Plugin – FeedWordpress

URL – http://projects.radgeek.com/feedwordpress/

It works great and has many great options. Hopefully something exists for bbPress.

Thanks!

Do I need to add some code to the bbPress theme to call the header maybe?

[chrishajer]

What theme are you looking for?

[chrishajer]

When you are logged in as keymaster, do you have a link next to your profile link that says “admin”?

It looks something like this:

Welcome, admin! View your profile (Admin | Log out)

If not, it sounds like you lost the keymaster capabilities.

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/lost-key-master

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/fix-admin-access/

You can search the forum for keymaster and find many more related topics.

[chrishajer]

BTW, I registered two accounts, one my own domain, one gmail, and after 10 minutes I still have no email from your forum. Normally, I get the mail from a new bbPress registration within seconds.

Where is this website hosted (physically, in which country is the server)?

[chrishajer]

How about something from this thread:

[chrishajer]

I just checked on my bbPress installation and that does not work. It just redirects to the forum home page when I am not logged in. When I log in and try to access the edit.php url, I get redirected to the forum home page as well.

I just checked on your forum and I cannot edit posts made by anyone else when I am not logged in. When I log in, I still cannot edit posts made by any other members. I tried this URL:

http://www.cairoshell.com/forum/edit.php?id=10314

FYI, the member who created the reply can edit the post for a period of time that is set in bb-config.php. And keymasters can edit posts made by anyone for an indefinite period of time. Is it possible you are using a plugin that gives members more permission than normal? Or that the user seeing this edit functionality is logged in as a keymaster?

I am not seeing the problem you describe, so if your users can edit other members posts, you need to look at the permissions that they have. The default installation does not do this in any forum I’ve checked, including this forum, your forum and my own forum.

[mciarlo]

Users on my forum are able to use the following url to edit posts:

http /www.cairoshell.com/forum/edit.php?id=

How do I fix this? I suspect this is an available bug in every bbPress forum.

I install a WP2.5.1 and then trying to integrate bbpress with it.

but mayde due to permission issue, there is error when installing, so I manaually modified bb-config.php according to related document.

but after integration, bbpress admin panel disappeared, even I login as admin and then manually type the bb-admin url, it redirects me to bb-press main page.

Some part of bb-config.php as below, I think it is possiblly the cause(P.S. db prefix for bb is bb_ , db prefix for WP is wp251_):

// If you are running multiple bbPress installations in a single database,

// you will probably want to change this.

$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please!

$bb->new_keymaster = ‘admin’; // or whatever the name of the account is.

// Change this to localize bbPress. A corresponding MO file for the

// chosen language must be installed to bb-includes/languages.

// For example, install de.mo to bb-includes/languages and set BB_LANG to ‘de’

// to enable German language support.

define(‘BB_LANG’, ”);

// If your bbPress URL is http://bbpress.example.com/forums/ , the examples would be correct.

// Adjust the domain and path to suit your actual URL.

// Just the domain name; no directories or path. There should be no trailing slash here.

$bb->domain = ‘http://myeasymaster.com/bbpress902/bbpress/’; // Example: ‘http://bbpress.example.com’

// There should be both a leading and trailing slash here. ‘/’ is fine if the site is in root.

$bb->path = ‘/’; // Example: ‘/forums/’

// What are you going to call me?

$bb->name = ‘New bbPress Site’;

// This must be set before running the install script.

$bb->admin_email = ‘webmaster@myeasymast.com’;

// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.

$bb->mod_rewrite = false;

// The number of topics that show on each page.

$bb->page_topics = 30;

// A user can edit a post for this many minutes after submitting.

$bb->edit_lock = 60;

// Your timezone offset. Example: -7 for Pacific Daylight Time.

$bb->gmt_offset = 0;

// Your Akismet Key. You do not need a key to run bbPress, but if you want to take advantage

// of Akismet’s powerful spam blocking, you’ll need one. You can get an Akismet key at

// http://wordpress.com/api-keys/

$bb->akismet_key = false;

// The rest is only useful if you are integrating bbPress with WordPress.

// If you’re not, just leave the rest as it is.

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp251_’; // ‘wp_’; // WordPress table prefix.

$bb->wp_home = ‘http://myeasymaster.com/wordpress251/wordpress’;

// WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://myeasymaster.com/wordpress251/wordpress’;

// WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash

/* Stop editing */

define(‘BBPATH’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/’ );

require_once( BBPATH . ‘bb-settings.php’ );

?>

Interesting. Looks like a rewrite issue.

I can access this page just fine:

http://www.libertybed.com/archives/tag/beds

I can’t access any page that looks like this http://www.libertybed.com/archives/92

I can’t access the forum at http://www.libertybed.com/forum/

If you contact me off list I can help you troubleshoot it. You will find contact details in my profile or on the website linked to my username.

I’m trying to upgrade BBPress 0.8.1 to 0.9.0.2.

I’ve followed the instructions to the letter and all is fine until I try and login as admin.

I get the message:

“Database upgrade required. It looks like your database is out-of-date. You can update it here”. When I click “Upgrade Database” after 10 minutes or more I get a php script timeout error.

Any ideas?

[stumain]

Seeking a consistent theme across WP and BBpress, I added:

require_once(‘../wp/wp-blog-header.php’);

to the top of my bb-config.php file.

Everything is looking good from the aesthetic perspective but the bb-admin section now won’t load. Also, try and close/move a topic for example won’t work as they rely on functions loaded in the admin section.

Should add, I am logged in as the admin. I’m not redirected, just get a blank page, which on my host indicates a php error. Also, I commented out the require_once line in BB-config.php and it went back to working fine (though I then, of course, lose my consistent theme).

Any ideas?

i just un install the forum bbpress

http://www.libertybed.com

now my word press is not displaying pages even if i uninstall the

bbpress really out of sight here

bout bbpress i just upload it in the webroot naming the directory http://www.libertybed.com/forum

thanks

[chrishajer]

mciarlo: back to the original problem then. When a user registers in bbPress, they’re not registered in WordPress?

Have you searched the forum for either cookie or role?

A couple things sounded interesting:

Oops, following this thread now:

Please post the URL of your WordPress installation and where you think you should be able to access bbPress. Thanks.

XDForum, another WordPress forum plug-in, stopped development a few months ago.

For anyone considering converting their XDForum to BBPress, I’ve posted detailed instructions for converting XDForum tables to BBPress tables on my site. The instructions include a method for tagging your existing content.

I looked for something like this a few months ago and couldn’t find it. Hopefully, someone will find this useful. The result of the conversion can be viewed here…

[Sam Bauers]

You do need to use the same user tables for both WordPress and bbPress to achieve what you are after.
