I change the Firefox icon to the IE icon on people’s desktop then remove IE from the desktop. It’s a hard habit to break but well worth it.
I think you *can* subscribe to a site feed from within Google Reader: that’s the whole point. Use the “Add Subscription” button and paste in the URL for the feed you want. That’s it.

wat bbPress pages? i dont see where the errors are?
i dont get where the errors are :- http://www.picbi.com/forum , am I think im missing something ?
cheers
After a lot of research, and looking at tumblr, then wordpress, then joomla, and now wordpress and bbpress, I think I almost may have made a decision. I want to create a site that is a blog on the front end, with the blog topics becoming forum discussions. Technically I don’t need bbpress to do this, but it seems to me that bbpress will facilitate better discussion. First, are there other sites that are already doing this, I would love to see how they operate?
Second, and maybe most important to me are the user profiles and the ability to let other users ranks each other posts to comments. I’m looking for some opinions on which extensions do this the best.
Oh yeah, I do already use Google’s reader – but you can’t actually subscribe to a site from within that, can you? And I have tried Firefox – I use it spasmodically. It’s illogical and even stupid of me, but I am so used to IE I find myself opening it up by default, as it were. No question, it is inferior to Firefox.
Did you add that to wp-config.php as the first line, right after the <?php?
The error cannot redeclare means something has already been included that it’s trying to include again.

There are several different types of RSS feeds, so maybe some sites and some feeds are handled better than others.
If you are stuck using IE6 you’re going to need a feed reader. IE7 has one built in, and IE8 is due around the end of the year as well.
Once you try Firefox or IE7 (or any browser with tabs) I don’t see how you’d want to go back.
Here is more info about RSS readers:

Hi – I’m also trying to add access to bbpress functions inside WordPress. I took the advice above and added
require_once(‘path/to/bb-load.php’);
to my wp config file.
Now I get the following error:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare _http_build_query() (previously declared in /path_to_bbpress/bb-includes/wp-functions.php:768) in /path_to_wordpress/wp-includes/compat.php on line 45
Any ideas on why I’m seeing this and how to fix?
Thanks, Chris. I know Firefox is a better browser, and the only reason I am using IE is out of habit. Currently running IE 6, and I suppose newer versions are equipped for RSS feeds. Anyway, you’ve cleared up the mystery of the RSS coded page for me! Weird thing, is, IE does show RSS feeds as they should appear on various blogs I’ve subscribed to. Why it should be different for the WP and bbPress forums…aaarrghh, not even going to think about it!
Hi, fantastic site but you have a minor server problem where it’s serving your bbpress pages with 404 errors instead of 200 status.
It’s a strange problem I’ve seen on a handful of bbPress sites and I am not entirely certain why it happens. Do you use multiviews or real mod_rewrite rules?
It’s very easy to do this via a plugin.
You have to attach to the ‘bb_head’ action.
In fact if there’s a plugin for WordPress that does it, it would take under a minute to change it for bbPress.
Here’s a mini-plugin I wrote to do noarchive and nofollow:
function no_archive() {
echo "n".'<meta NAME="robots" CONTENT="noarchive,nofollow">'."n";
} add_action('bb_head', 'no_archive');
.
It would just have to be wrapped in an IF statement with a URI check to add it when you want it. To get the current location, either check bb_get_location or steal it’s code and modify as desired.
Something like this (untested)
function no_index() {
if (in_array(bb_get_location(),array("login-page","register-page","profile-page")) {
echo "n".'<meta NAME="robots" CONTENT="noindex,nofollow">'."n";
}
} add_action('bb_head', 'no_archive');
This topic has nothing to do with subdomains, but you can definitely install bbpress on a subdomain. Just enter the appropriate info during setup.
Can I install bbpress on a subdomain? Is this possible?
Please contact me to cordoval@gmail.com
Encouragements,
Nice look but you need to look into your server configuration as the bbPress pages are being served with 404 error code instead of 200 (even though they display).
Something might be wrong with your htaccess
I am not sure about the loading order of your plugin but keep in mind that stuff like bb_is_user_logged_in() is only available when bbPress is fully initialized.
Essentially you cannot execute anything but the most basic independent code until do_action('bb_init' happens.
So you have to hook bb_init, ie:
add_action('bb_init','your_function_name);`
and THEN your function can check bb_is_user_logged_in.
BB_IS_ADMIN is a constant so be sure to use DEFINED to test it and not directly or you’ll get an error
if (defined('BB_IS_ADMIN')) {
(also, BB_IS_ADMIN means if you are in the admin menu, not if the user is an administrator – not sure if you knew that)
Yes I am familiar with that WP redirect plugin – it saves the old permalink in meta and checks the meta when a url is not found.
It would be an interesting port for bbPress but I am too burnt out on bbPress stuff right now to give it a go. I highly suggest the phpmyadmin method for now to just manually edit the permalink since it’s a one-time deal.
For those that know what they are doing and have subversion, you can checkout or switch to the alpha trunk of bbPress which will give you compatibility with WordPress 2.6
svn switch http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress/trunk/
Unfortunately an automated download zip cannot be created because this is the first version of bbPress that uses BackPress which is automatically added by svn, but can’t be zipped by TRAC.
Here’s a ZIP’ed snapshot from yesterday:
http://www.mediafire.com/?alvvslgmh22
Keep in mind that you should NOT use the bbPress trunk for live websites – it’s bound to have bugs and some might affect security. You are on your own if you chose to use this version – plugins may have some compatibility issues.
1.0 requires the 3 new WP matching keys inserted into bb-config.php (see thebb-config-sample.php for more info)

Sam could use your bug reports via TRAC if you find problems.
we need more official templates, which are easy to edit/change
They can mark the thread as a favorite and have the system notify them of new posts with this plugin:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/post-notification/
In your profile, there is also an RSS feed for a member’s favorites. But email is easier for non-techies.
You can download a before-alpha copy at http://www.mediafire.com/?51zcmu1mhou
The problems I’m having are that
- When I activate the plugin, it doesn’t know about the “bb_is_user_logged_in()” command
- And when I delete that command from the plugin, it never finds BB_IS_ADMIN to be true.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_is_user_logged_in() in J:wwwhtdocsbbpress-stablemy-pluginsbbpm.php on line 20
