Hey,
I just got done redesigning my forum section to match my main WordPress theme. I would love some feedback. If it’s positive, I probably will release the WordPress and bbPress theme to the public.
http://www.refueled.net/forum/
Let me know what you think.
Thanks in advance.
Do you have a link to what you’re talking about?
Of course you can do a conditional in PHP, it’s just a matter of how you integrated things and if the functions are available between WordPress and bbPress.
What breadcrumb script are you using?
> Could this be a cookie issue with WP 2.5 (hashing method?)?
Yes.
Thank you all for your hard work! It’s really appreciated. Release it when it’s ready — WP took an extra few weeks, so a few extra days here isn’t the end of the world.
I personally have my fingers crossed that .9 will solve my major permission issues (that are basically preventing me from admining my forums).
There are two people committing code for bbPress and one of them (mdawaffe) was heavily involved with the WordPress 2.5 release.
If there have been two release candidates for WordPress, that means there have been changes to WordPress that we have to match in that time.
It’s just a matter of limited resources at this stage. We also have identified one blocker which needs to be fixed before we can release 0.9
.09 will fix integration issues with WP 2.5. Hopefully it will be released soonish.

Bit surprised this still isn’t out. Wasn’t it planned to be released like 20+ days ago? And hasn’t there been two RCs for WP 2.5 since then? Did they really changed so much in those two RC’s that .9 needs to go through testing now?
I need the new version of bbPress lol, my forum’s borked without it due to the password changes… keeps resetting my bbPress password to something odd, so I have to keep changing it… Not good!
Hello there,
i upgraded wp to version 2.5 succesfully.
But now i have a small problem. It seems that bbpress and wp do not communicate anymore as before as if the integration is broken. I am not more logged in into bbpress if i am logged in into wp and vice versa. I did not try to create a new testing user to see if he/she will appear in wp and bbpress yet. Is anyone experiencing the same?
Could this be a cookie issue with WP 2.5 (hashing method?)? The intergration between wp 2.3 and bbpress 0.8.3 worked smoothly until now.
This method http://bbpress.org/blog/2006/09/simpler-integration-with-wordpress/ ceased to work for me since the wp upgrade. Will it be fixed with 0.9 version?
Hi
I’m integrated.
I use a breadcrumb script in my WordPress header.
Any idea if it’s possible to display the bbPress breadcrumb script INSTEAD of the WordPress one when on the forum?
Something like if (is_forum()) or something?
I see a search on the top of this forum. How do I get this in my install of bbpress, is there a plug-in that I should install?
thanks.
i see no where to add these plugins?? where is my main bbpress directory???
please help 
If you’re interested, shoot me an e-mail at terry (at) kineda.com.
@sam
why not release a RC for bbpress
I’m giddy, its like Christmas, only less tangible.
I can access this:
http://cialar.com/foro/bb-images/bbpress.png
Which means the files (at least that file) are there.
I can also access these and get directory listings:
http://cialar.com/foro/bb-admin/
http://cialar.com/foro/
That tells me that the index.php file in each directory is not getting processed by the web server. Looks like some sort of configuration problem with the server.
Can you put a simple file in the foro directory, call it info.php and put this into it:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Then access that at http://www.cialar.com/foro/info.php. See what that tells you. If that is not processed by the web server, then it’s a problem with the server, not bbPress.
I don’t have a lot of experience on an IIS server, so there may be something simple I’m not familiar with that would cause this.
I am guessing PHP is not enabled here:
http://www.cialar.com/foro/ (IP: 74.208.22.70)
It is however enabled here:
http://www.foro.cialar.com/ (IP: 74.86.125.241)
Those are two completely different machines. The one where phpBB is now is a Linux/Apache machine with PHP 5.2.5. The cialar.com one if IIS.
I am pretty sure this is a configuration thing with your server, and where you have bbPress installed does not support PHP.
I really like the new theme they are using and was wondering if anyone knew if they had released it or where they got it from?
Also on a non-bbpress note, how do you turn avatars on in WP2.5? I can’t find it at all. 
Release of bbPress 0.9 is imminent.
We need to test against the final release of WordPress 2.5 before we can release bbPress.
I’ve done this but I use the bbpress database. If you can make a relationship between the bbpress database and your user database I’m sure you can work something.
@lostdeviant
I guess, they’ve taken a long vacation 
We realized many of the members seemed to be showing up on the site as ‘inactive’, despite having a record in wp_user_meta with matching records containing:
bb_capabilities a:1:{s:6:”member”;b:1;}
I updated a single ‘inactive’ user to ‘moderator’, saved, then downgraded them back to ‘member’, saved… and everyone that was displaying as inactive started displaying correctly as member.
I do not know what type of glitch this was, or if it was a result of the conversion but am posting it here in case others converting run into the same issue.
Hi,
I’m very pleased with the Avatar Upload, great work. Also I like the integration into bbpress a lot, it’s really straight forward.
Only one small visual glitch that I noticed is that for avatars even when resized to 100×100 max, with small (1 line) posts the avatar image will overlap into the portion of next post, rendering the next user name unreadable. The callout for the img code has been included where suggested by the docs. Anyone else did recognize this as a problem?
I’m using version 0.8.3 of the plugin (avatar-upload.0.8.3.zip).
Thanks.
You need a plugin to post images because bbpress out of the box is very lightweight. Many forums don’t want or need images, so that functionality comes in the form of a plugin. For example, the largest bbPress installation ( https://wordpress.org/support/ ) doesn’t allow images.
If you post a link to your forum and possibly a little better description of what you are doing, what happens, and what you expected to happen, maybe someone can help you.
WP 2.5 was released yesterday morning, so where is bbpress?
