MemberI installed version 0.8.3.1 succsessfully. Then I changed the config-file as written, before installing a .mo-file in /bb-includes/languages. The .mo file is based on the 0.8.3 bbpress.pot file. I´m pretty sure this is done correctly. But nothing happens. Same old english language everywhere. Any suggestions how to make the localization work – anybody ?

MemberIt depends where your bb-load.php file is (in relation to your wordpress wp-config.php). You may find it easier to give an absolute path rather than a relative path. http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/a/absopath.htm

MemberThanks, Should “path/to/bb-load.php” this be like this?
“forums/bb-load.php”
I’m getting errors…
Would you explain little bit easier?

MemberYou need to include bbPress. To do this, make sure that your bbPress supports being integrated thoroughly with WordPress (not just users, also functions), then open your wordpress config file and at the bottom put
require_once('path/to/bb-load.php');That’ll let you use the bb functions too.January 13, 2008 at 5:18 pm #2784Topic: New plugin: Auto Add Favorites
in forum PluginsOlaf Lederer
ParticipantJust published my second bbpress plugin:
http://www.finalwebsites.com/bbpress/auto-add-member-favorites.php
Use this plugin for your bbpress forum to let members add their favorites while writing a post for an existing thread or while creating a new topic.
any suggestion / comment is welcome…

Memberversion 0.8.3.1 – bbpress and WordPress (Version 2.3.2).. Nt Box
Clarification Below.
do you now of any bugs in the synchronizing of wp an bbp. I am testing these sytems and having issues with email registrations. I get an email notification in wp letting me know there is a new registrant but no registration password and link come through. When you register in bpress nothing happens other then saying password was sent.
Even more odd is the fact that email notification for favorites in bbpress works just fine. I have no idea what the issue is. can anyone help me.. At this point I would donate to your cause if you can get this to work/synchronize.

ParticipantSam, there are no trac tickets that I know of, just forum reports. I’ve already provided links to those. I hesitate to create a trac ticket myself since I have not experienced it first hand. I suspect the developers haven’t either, which is why it appears to still be happening.
Maybe instead of trying to recreate the problem, someone can look at lines 168 – 172 in bb-settings.php and see if the warning thrown on line 169 has a good reason. It certainly seems to be related to a missing my_plugins or bb-plugins folder, and no underscore plugins. I thought there was a difference between PHP4 and PHP5 at some point, but maybe that’s a red herring.
Also, since it’s just a warning, maybe it’s not really a hard error, just a warning, but the server is configured to show warnings, thus the warning comes first and then you get the “cannot modify header information” because the warning came first. Maybe the server needs to be configured to show warnings for this to happen? Is there an .htaccess directive to force PHP to show warnings, or maybe another way to test this?
(BTW, I just checked out 0.8.3.1 and configured my server to use PHP4 and I do not have this error. In the stock install, there is no my-plugins or bb-plugins folder. So, maybe it is throwing a warning but my server is not configured to show them?)

MemberI had some luck using wordpress Theme Functions.
For example my BBPress pulls the top header image, navigation and footer from wordpress. It does not pull between the <head> </head> tags. But this allows me to control the nav and header in one place as well as footer, so that everything gets updated.
If you have your bbpress install setup to use wordpress functions it’s pretty easy to do.
As for CSS, I hate the way other people code css so I always end up ripping it all out and starting from scratch.

ParticipantWhat version are you using? In the trunk, line 169 of bb-settings.php does not have a foreach statement, so maybe you’re using something other than the trunk release?
That error is related to not having a my-plugins folder and I think possibly not having any plugins in that folder that start with an underscore.
This was talked about a couple times:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/installation-problem-cannot-modify-header-information
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/php-error-site-mangement-plugins-page
I thought the latest 0.8.3.1 release took care of that, but maybe it doesn’t.
If it were me, I would try creating a my-plugins directory, and then making sure there were some plugins in that folder.

ParticipantRegarding email notification, I would read this for an alternate opinion:
“Q. Could you make a feature where I check a box that says “email me if somebody replies to my post?”
A. This one feature, so easy to implement and thus so tempting to programmers, is the best way to kill dead any young forum. Implement this feature and you may never get to critical mass. Philip Greenspun’s LUSENET has this feature and you can watch it sapping the life out of young discussion groups.
Why?
What happens is that people go to the group to ask a question. If you offer the “notify me” checkbox, these people will post their question, check the box, and never come back. They’ll just read the replies in their mailbox. The end.
If you eliminate the checkbox, people are left with no choice but to check back every once in a while. And while they’re checking back, they might read another post which looks interesting. And they might have something to contribute to that post. And in the critical early days when you’re trying to get the discussion group to take off, you’ve increased the “stickiness” and you’ve got more people hanging around, which helps achieve critical mass a lot quicker.”
That’s from Joel Spolsky: http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/BuildingCommunitieswithSo.html
Regarding RSS to email, there are lots of services that will do that if you want. Feedblitz and Feedburner come to mind, but a Google search turns up lots of results as well:
http://www.google.com/search?q=RSS+to+email
Or, you could explain to your members how to use RSS.

MemberI had used punBB for a while and really liked it – except for the really long amount of time that it takes to update the software. They’ve been working on v1.3 for years now. That’s the version I’ve been waiting for.
punBB seems to be more robust, but the code is a little more sketchy. bbPress is more simplistic but the plugin system makes a pretty good addition. Another thing about punBB that bothered me is that topics aren’t marked as read when you read them – your cookie has to expire before a topic is marked. They have an addon for that, but all the addons rely on editing a lot of files and also is very heavy on the database.
For right now, I’m sticking with bbPress and seeing how everything will end up.

in forum Requests & Feedbacktrex33
MemberI’ve finally narrowed down my forum choices to bbPress and Punbb. I love the speed and simplicity of bbPress but am struggling with this decision. Integration with WordPress is not an issue for me.
Does anyone have experience with both bbPress and PunBB? Which do you prefer and why? (I’ve compared both over at forummatrix.org to no avail)
My biggest concern with bbPress is the lack of email notification. Many users have no idea what RSS feed is. IMO, thread subscription is critical to forum’s success. I did see there was plugin for email notification. Are there plans to make email notification standard for bbpress? Does plugin do the trick?

ParticipantIf you use the latest trunk from the subversion repository then this setting is made in the database rather than the config file.
Scroll to the bottom of this page and use the “Zip Archive” link.
Although a little new, trunk should be stable enough to use right now (rev.1010).
Better still, install trunk using subversion and then updating is much simpler.

starnet
MemberSo far, I experimented and if you comment out [$bb->wp_home] on config.php, it works. Enter the value of $bb->wp_table_prefix and $bb->wp_siteurl, and user table is being shared by bbPress and WP. Like here, I could have a WP user on WordPress.com and my user name will be valid for bbPress.org.
@intellivisio, I don’t know about the cookie part. I still have to investigate. My main intent was to be able to have the user input info only once so that they could be authenticated on both bbpress site and WP site.
@sambauers, bbPress did complain on install about cookies, but after I commented out $bb->wp_home, it continued with the install. I created a user once on one domain and it shared the user on both domains.

ParticipantI just tried this using phpBB 2.012 and bbPress 0.8.3.
This is the error I get:
Table ‘khanlon_db3.henskebb_users’ doesn’t exist
And that makes sense, since I already set up bbPress to integrate with WordPress. Since bbPress is using the wp_users table, the script doesn’t know where to put the phpbb users.
As it stands now, bbPress shows all the topic counts for each forum, but when you click on the forum, none of the threads are listed.
I tried exporting all the users using phpMyAdmin and importing into the WP table, but the threads are still missing.
