Did you try validating the feed

http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.criticalmass.at%2Fforum%2Frss%2F

The feed URL returns a 404 Not found Error if you check the headers:

http://www.criticalmass.at/forum/rss/

This sounds like WordPress trying to handle the /forum/ URL and sending a 404 error when the page actually exists. There was a plugin to take care of this sort of thing, I think…

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-wordpress-mu-or-not-leads-to-404-errors-but-pages-still-load#post-13156

I think that plugin will resolve the fact that the feed actually returns a 404 error, then I bet the widget will pull the feed just fine. Report back please…

I’ve searched the forum, but I couldn’t find the answer to my problem. I was testing bbPress’ Gravatar function and after being unsatisfied with the outcome I clicked the ‘Show Avatars’ box so the little ‘v’ sign would dissappear. But when I click on the “Update Settings” button the feature stays enabled. In short: I can’t disable the “Show Avatar” thingy.

Does anyone have a release archives for bbPress, or at least the one for version 0.73. I’m trying to use the phpbb2bbpress http://www.iteisa.com/phpbb2bbpress/ converter, but it only works for 0.73. so i’m thinking I could use that, and then upgrade to version 0.9 later.

[chrishajer]

Is it this plugin?

I notice that some BBPress sites include a VIEWS count column but I haven’t managed to find a way to turn it on in Admin or a Plug-in to provide it.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

[citizenkeith]

I get this error at the top of the pm.php page:

bbPress database error: [Unknown column 'del_receiver' in 'where clause']

SELECT * FROM bb_privatemessages WHERE id_receiver = '1' AND del_receiver= '0' ORDER BY created_on DESC



bbPress database error: [Unknown column 'del_sender' in 'where clause']

SELECT * FROM bb_privatemessages WHERE id_sender = '1' AND del_sender = '0' ORDER BY created_on DESC

Also, all previous Private Messages are missing.

Hey everyone. I’ve been trying to figure out how to match my bbpress theme with my wordpress theme. So far I know I need to somehow integrate my current wordpress header/footer into my bbpress installation. I’m thinking that this might be the only thing that I need to do. Are there any specifics on how to do this?

Mufasa, I’m in the same boat. I’m trying to integrate my bbpress into http://www.atriskstoriesofhope.com/wordpress. Please let me know if you find out how to do this.

I am thouroughly confused on how to do this. Where the heck would I actually start? I don’t want to integrate the the databases/cookies/etc., I just want to apply the same look of my header and footer at http://www.atriskstoriesofhope.com/ with http://www.atriskstoriesofhope.com/bbpress…

[parthatel]

How can I create a navigation bar in bbPress so that when I update it in WordPress, it automatically gets updated in bbPress? I don’t want to call the full wp header as the bbPress header, but would I be able to use

<?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&title_li='); ?>

in bbPress to call the pages in the navigation bar? Both my WordPress and bbPress are integrated in the same databases. If not, how can I do it?

I use a custom theme (heavily a modified Kakumei) and some custom plugins. The forum is new, so it doesn’t have activity, all our users are still using the Vanilla forum we had.

I didn’t hack any core files, all “non standard things” are donde via custom plugins.

Plugins i use:

– My own “Ajustes” (for sidebar, footer and navigation menu content, profile content, and some html tags).

– MD5 Insecurity (will be deactivated soon).

– Private Messaging Extended

– A custom Quicktags (ported from Vanilla)

– Ajaxed Quote

– Simple Online List (i also modified a lot this plugin, because it never worked for me ….).

– Unread Topics. I also modified this one, it was doing too many queries. I added some indices and reduced the overhead.

– User Photo. I ported the User Photo WP plugin.

– Human Test.

Also i indirectly use:

– Gaming Codes: each user can enter his gaming codes. They’re displayed on the user profile.

– Aleph: this plugin creates user lists (among other things). So i use it inside WP like a “member list”. The beauty is that i can easily create different user lists, so i created a list for each gaming code (in other words, users can see which users have a certain gamer code).

As i said, the theme is a heavily modified Kakumei. I replaced all topics/forum loops with my own, trying to mimick the Vanilla look. Also the css is based on the Tarski theme for WordPress. In fact, i import it directly from the WP installation.

For the forum/topic icons, i created a custom plugin which printed the css based on the slug of each forum, and then i added the resulting code to the style.css. I still have to create a lot of icons, those are temporary.

I hope you like my forums and if you have any questions or would like a plugin/theme release, just ask :p

I want to know what I need to change in the bbPress files so that the layout will be changed. Basically, I want the left sidebar currently on the default bbPress on the right, with the content on the left. Also, currently on the default bbPress theme, the sidebar disappears when you click a topic or forum. I want the sidebar to always be present. Is there anyway of doing this and switching the sidebar and content?

[malfhok]

Here’s my bbPress. It’s a forum for kids and teens to discuss books on. I modified the default theme to fit with the color scheme of the main site, and added a few plugins for features that my members wanted.

This is actually our second forum. The first was a YaBB install, which I hated, ’cause it kept letting spammers in. But our members and I love bbPress and the ease of use!

Ah, so when you said this “Now, when i get a visitor from “domainB.com”, he will be redirected to “domainA.com” pretty fast, like when he’s clicking the “Home” link on the forum.” this is NOT want you want, eh? You want multiple domains/URLs all pointing to the same bbPress installation and people to stay on the domain they came in from?

[chrishajer]

If you just want the year with php, you don’t need bbPress functions at all, just php:

<?php echo date('Y'); ?>

That will echo the current year.

[Detective]

As i did with Private Messaging, i needed this functionality in the Quote plugin. So here it is if anyone is interested.

Features:

– The plugin uses nonces and removes the paragraph tags added by the pre_post filters.

– The JS library used is SACK. I just copied it from a WP installation.

– When you click on the Quote link, the post content is added in the reply form. You can click quote on another post to quote it too .

I tested it on Firefox and works ok in my test install of bbPress.

[parthatel]

Just like how WordPress calls time in the footer by <?php the_time(‘Y’); ?> and the name by <?php bloginfo(); ?>. What is the code I need to use for bbPress since <?php the_time(‘Y’); ?> doesn’t work to get the year? I also need to know how to get the bbPress title.

[mikelothar]

Thanks for the reply. I think i didn’t explain myself too good.

I want users who come from domainA to stay at domainA, and users from domainB to stay at domainB, and so on (got quite an amount of domains actually).

I need bbPress to somehow get the domain from the browser, and use this domain instead of the one saved under the ‘uri’ or ‘BB_HOST’ variable.

[chrishajer]

[chrishajer]

Why not redirect them with a permanent 301 redirect? If your host does not offer this, why not create a directory for each domain, like this:

/var/www/vhosts/domaina.com/

/var/www/vhosts/domainb.com/

You install bbPress in the domaina.com/ directory. In the domainb.com/ directory, you put an index.php file in there like this:

<?php

header("Status: 301 Moved Permanently", false, 301);

header("Location: http://www.domainA.com/");

exit();

?>

 

Then, when anyone accesses http://www.domainB.com/ they are seamlessly directed to http://www.domainA.com/. Would that accomplish what you need?

You can also use .htaccess for 301 redirects if there is more than one page, like there are search engine results with pages from domainB.com already out there, and you want to redirect them all to domainA.com.

[chrishajer]

alexandreperei: That’s a phpBB forum and was earlier as well. Are you looking for help with phpBB or bbPress?

[malfhok]

@Detective:

I’ve been testing it quite a bit today, and I have found one small bug…

I’ll try to explain this as clearly as possible. Basically, when Member A sends a PM to Member B, then Member B replies, the plugin tries to send the message to Member B, not Member A like it should.

@citizenkeit:

I just overwrote all of the old files. Works fine on my latest-version bbPress install.

[mystifier]

I have used WordPress for a few websites but only recently stumbled across BBPress.

I just added a Forum to this School History site which was pretty painless.

Can someone tell me where I can modify the template file that controls the page that comes up when someone clicks “Add New Topic”

It doesn’t seem to be in the theme files… basically this page would be the example of what I want to modify:
