sub-domain? did you mean add-on domain?

You just need to move (re-install) all bbPress files up a level. If you installed them into public_html/konpaforum.com/bbpress/, then mv public_html/konpaforum.com/bbpress/* public_html/konpaforum.com/

If you want to integrate into WordPress, then leave them and install WordPress in public_html/konpaforum.com/, would be a good idea.

hey guys thanks, like goldfinger said everything is installed in a folder

titled bbpress. I’ve reinstalled in several places, but with no success. I

don’t know if its because im using a sub-domain not sure. Anyways I will

keep trying, I’m also going to try to install wordpress first. thanks again.

[goldfiinger]

You have installed everything to a sub folder called bbpress. If you want your index page to be the forum i think u may need to reinstall moving everything to the public_html folder rather than it being there within a folder called bbpress.

Other than that you could create a index page that just forwards the user to http://konpaforum.com/bbpress/

[chrishajer]

Oh yeah, this doesn’t look right (the path is wrong):

http://konpaforum.com/bbpress/

[livibetter]

Set

$bb->uri = 'http://konpaforum.com/bbpress/';

in your config.php

(edit: missing tailing semi-colon)

I have just installed bbpress everything seems to be going well. I have my

admin password and everything. But my forum seems to not be at the url I intend it to be, but at the index. My site’s address is konpaforum.com. I have to click on bbpress on the index page to get to my forums homepage. I also notice that when I type in konpaforum.com/bbpress in my browser everything is alright. This is the error message I receive from my hosting company:

[Thu Dec 27 20:34:49 2007] [error] [client 75.74.120.59] File does not exist: /home/alezla/public_html/konpaforum/404.shtml

Also how do i access my admin panel for my site. Thanks in advance.

Can I pull from two different WP blogs into one bbPress Forum?

[darkbob]

Hello,

I just finished to translate, download at : http://www.adilade.fr/ftp/bbpress-fr_FR-0.8.3.zip

I work with the german version.

[fel64]

No. Unlike '/bbpressfolder/' (I presume), 'wordpressuser' and 'wordpresspass' are not placeholders for your actual value: they are the literal values you will have there. Check your wordpress cookie; those are what they use. A part of the structure is:

wordpressuser_site-unique hash=your username

wordpresspass_site-unique hash=hash of your password

With his settings, bb should now be using that too.

[kaolin]

doesn’t that just make it so anyone who goes to bbpress can work as you?

[kaolin]

I just ran into this myself… Didn’t think to check here for a workaround. I have bbpress installed as /forum/ and my approach was to add an htaccess with the following:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /forum/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/(.*)?$ /forum/$1.php [PT,QSA]

It seems to be working fine.

It has been fixed in trunk, but you may need to wait for 0.8.4.

I have tried to use pretty permalinks and am having no luck so far.

Could someone please help me

I tried using the

Options +MultiViews

and when I click on the links I get 404 Error.

Then I tried using the

rewrite-rules.php.

and I get:

blockquoteInternal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webadmin@kundenserver.de and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

blockquote

If you go to http://www.328solutions.com you will see it! (That is with the rewrite-rules.php)

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? If you need more information please let me know! I really want to use BBPRESS as I love WordPress!!! And don’t really want to use any other forum.

oh btw, seasons greetings

Hi there,

Users can register and login in to my wordpress section of my site, and this automatically makes then a bbpress member also. The problem however affects only people whose user name contains a space in it. Though they are resisted members of both wordpress and bbpress, they cannot log into bbpress.

Any ideas?

[florille6]

Hi everybody,

The french website with the french translation files has closed, is there anybody with the files ? I’ve installed BBPress and now the only thing missing is the translation :o(.

[livibetter]

This is stolen from WordPress Extend Ideas. I made (or I should say I duplicated or pirated?) this for getting your ideas to be my motivations. But, while writing this I found out this not just “Ideas”, this actually is an application of how to have different themes for your forums and topics. And you can also have permalinks like /ideas/ or /ideas.php.

No modifications on core files, but need to add two files. 1 plugin file, some modifications on theme.

You can see this “Ideas” on my forums. Scroll down to the bottom, you will see it. Click on “Got an Idea?” or “Ideas for bbPress” (read the URIs, notice the differences?).

This is not ready for a release, however you can download it from repository and read this draft documentation (if you want to play with it).

And you can post your ideas for “Ideas” or others.

[fel64]

Wouldn’t it be best to mark the entire topic link up? Sounds good, though.

Anyway, for enhancements add a ticket on https://trac.bbpress.org/ and mark it as such.

That only prevents keymasters from demoting themselves. What I want them to prevent is administrators demoting keymasters.

In WordPress, when a page title is the same as a previous one, the slug gets a number appended to it, like this-was-written-about-before-1, so I imagine bbPress has the same protection built in. The slug needs to be unique.

[goldfiinger]

I copied and pasted WP_config details and forgot to change it to BBDB

define(‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘bbpress’); // The name of the database

define(‘BBDB_USER’, ‘username’); // Your MySQL username

define(‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘password’); // …and password

define(‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’);

As soon as i corrected these I no longer had any errors.

Hi, livibetter

Thanks! I have sorted it out, besides “$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’; “, I added the following in bbpress config.php

“

$bb->path = ‘/bbpressfolder/’;

$bb->usercookie = ‘wordpressuser’;

$bb->passcookie = ‘wordpresspass’;

“

It is strange that I still can not find any cookie file generated when I logged in WP but my WP works correctly, so weird… anyway, my problem is resolved, I am happy now:)

[livibetter]

I think bbPress works normal, but WordPress may not. After you logging in WordPress, is that logging effective? Can you get into WordPress admin pages?
