1. You can integrate FCK Editor or TinyMCE if you are looking for a wysiwyg editor.
http://www.fckeditor.net/
http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/
1a. To allow all that type of content, you’re going to need a plugin. Check out this thread:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-youtube-in-bbpress?replies=18#post-5707
2. Does the regular sitemap plugin NOT work with 0.8.3? I never tried it. http://boakes.org/download/bbpress_sitemap.txt
3. To show hot tags, you are going to need to edit the template files for each page, then insert this tag where you want it:
<p class="frontpageheatmap"><?php bb_tag_heat_map(); ?></p>
Depending on the layout of each of your pages, you might need to create a new div to insert that tag heat map into, or maybe there is room inside an existing div.
The things you are asking for are going to require a substantial amount of work on your part. It can all be done (probably) but it’s not going to be super quick.
Good luck.

I am looking at WP and bbPress as a way of extending my G2 install functionality.
I know I can link G2 log-in to WP login, and I know that WP and bbPress can be linked – but will they all play nicely together?
Also, in gallery2 I use permalinks which enable my users to have a short URL a bit like MySpace. Will this still work in an ’embedded’ situation?
Thanks
DJ
I’ve already looked into that as a viable solution, but WordPress’ back-end just complicates things for new users. bbPress is a lot simpler solution in that a forum is built around the idea of community, I’m just theming it not to look like a forum for advertising purposes, everyone knows that the ctr for forums are terrible. Plus I already gutted Kakumei beyond recognition, can’t turn back now
.
Anyhoo, anyone know of how to put excerpts?
There has been some talk of looking into the registration process.
http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/bbdev/2007-December/001764.html
Also, how about the enhanced registration plugin?
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-enhanced-registration?replies=17
And a while back, someone commented that it took only a few minutes to delete the bad registrations every day. Can’t find a link to that post right now…
I’m in the process of theming bbPress not to look like a forum, but rather a blog with multiple posters
. The one thing I’m stuck on, and there doesn’t seem to be any documentation on how to do this. How do you put excerpts in the front? The best example would have to be 9rules, I was wondering if that was custom code, or is there a plugin or a simple solution to achieve that? Thanks in advance.
Hello all,
I tried to realize a plugin that would allow me to replace some words by others in the post. I created the DB contained the words to replace and the word to put instead, i created the function and all is working fine, BUT, I don’t find how to use it on BBPRESS.
My function is something like
echo replace_words($TextToBeTransform,$WordToReplace)
, and the function use the DB to see what is be put instead of the $WordToReplace. As I can see, the post are printed out from the post.php of the template we do use.
I got this:
<?php
$tset="A trial phrase.";
$WordToBeReplaced="trial";
?>
<div class="threadpost">
<div class="post">
<?php echo replace_words( $test,$WordToBeReplaced); post_text()?></div>
<div class="poststuff">
<?php printf( __('Posted %s ago'), bb_get_post_time() ); ?>
">#
<?php post_ip_link(); ?> <?php post_edit_link(); ?>
<?php post_delete_link(); ?></div>
</div>
It print me exactly as I want the “A trial phrase” replace trial by “new” (from the DB).
The problem is that when I want to apply this to the text of the post, post_text(), it won’t work at all. I see that this post_text() is actually applying filters and others to the text, which my cause my function to fail (no error, it just don’t replace the words).
Could someone tell me where should I apply my own filter replace_words() for it to be taken into account?
Thank you very much.
And in case anyone wants to keep their passwords hashed in MD5, I’ve got a plugin that’s about to go into the plugin browser that enables that (for bbPress anyway).
How should I modify my .htaccess to accomodate a bbpress install in a /forums/ subdirectory? The install worked but permalinks aren’t.
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
You have managed to come across a bug since you have a “username” that is a number. bbPress is searching for the 850th user which is that user and not your profile. I will let the “powers above” know. I will try and figure out your user ID number so you can at least see the profile until they fix this

I logged in here on the bbPress forums to view my profile so that I could find my topics that I created a couple weeks ago. When I view my profile, it doesn’t show my posts or topics and my profile information is someone else’s:

That’s not me, I’m not from Rio.. and I’ve only been a member for a year or so.
Also, I’m not able to edit my profile here.
Hello, while trying to install I get the following error at the second step
bbPress database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘ ”, , ”, ‘200]
INSERT INTO bb_topics (topic_title, topic_slug, topic_poster, topic_poster_name, topic_last_poster, topic_last_poster_name, topic_start_time, topic_time, forum_id) VALUES (‘Your first topic’, ‘your-first-topic’, , ”, , ”, ‘2007-12-12 00:10:27’, ‘2007-12-12 00:10:27’, 1)
:
I have applied the patches for the msqlI warning, therefore nothing seems to be wrong until this step.
I have also filled all the fields from the previous step.
Any idea?
Thank you!
Nothing easy comes to mind because it requires just the first post to have a poll and nothing else. It would be a call on the topic creation only which might be easy enough, but I don’t recall anyone doing anything with that. Isn’t there a poll plugin for bbPress now? Maybe changing it a bit?
Trent
I am sure that people will report back on a TRAC version if nothing else that it will work with, but I would imagine that the WP release will come out followed closely with a bbPress release as that is what happened when the compatibility issues showed up with WP 2.3, but I guess time will tell!
Trent
Thanks… looks like it is a big deal then. No Wp2.4 upgrade until a new bbPress then.
I saw the following post on WP2.4 – coming in Jan.
WordPress weekly digest 26th November to 2nd December 2007
It sounds like WP2.4 will use a new hashing scheme to store the password.
Will this interefere with bbPress users who are running WordPress User integration?
That function isn’t in bbPress core. You may need to ask template’s author about that function. But I think just removing it is ok.
Maybe that is about this plugin: Support Forum?
Nah – I would think anyone looking to write a plugin should already know some PHP. I would start at a plugin for bbPress since there are already lots of PHP tutorials online. With bbPress, we need stuff like this.
Thanks.
That’s a good topic, however I think PHP 101 should be come next?
PS. I am re-uploading .flv and .mp4.
Here it is:
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: My own tweak for my forums
Plugin URI: https://bbpress.org/
Description: Fine tuning codes for my forum
Author: Your name
Author URI: http://www.myforum.com/
Version: 0.1
*/
add_filter('post_author_link', 'bb_rel_nofollow');
?>
Basically, you can put many fine tuning codes within one PHP files, and this file is for your forum only. Remember to activate this plugin.
I haven’t watched this video yet, but I think an idea for another one would be how to write a plugin
Hi!
I made a new podcast show and the first episode’s topic is “Integrating bbPress into WordPress.” This is my first video, so I’m really need your suggestions. Maybe you can tell me what are you expecting in such podcast show? I am looking forward to hearing from you! 
PS. I haven’t decided what’s next episode and when will it be released.
PS2. You may want to download .ogg (I might convert .ogg to .flv and .mov without appropriate parameters, so the qualities are not good).
Can you post what you did and what resources you used, so others with the same problem might find this post when they are searching for a solution to their problem?
Basically though, you would install WordPress first, then use the same database for bbPress, but with a different table prefix for the bbPress tables. Then there are configuration options in config.php in the bbpress folder. Some of those can only be answered AFTER installing WordPress, like these:
$bb->wp_table_prefix = '';
$bb->wp_home = '';
$bb->wp_siteurl = '';
I wouldn’t put them in bb-templates at all (no good reason for saying that other than “they don’t go there.”) Just drop them into my-templates.
The my templates folder should be 0755.
The template folder itself should be 0755.
The files in the template folder should be 0644.
(well, that’s what they are in my installation, by default, and they work)
If those permissions are correct, then is it possible you didn’t create a folder under my-templates? Should be something like:
my-templates (directory)
-crystal (directory)
- all the php and css for the crystal theme here
-superbold (directory)
- all the php and css for the superbold theme here
The other thing is that the style.css needs to have a line in it like this:
Theme Name: Crystal
If the Theme Name is not unique, I think bad things happen. At least you see what appears to be a theme of the same name in multiple places in the admin panel. I know WordPress doesn’t like themes with the same name too much, and I suspect bbPress is similarly picky.
Please post when you find the solution because I am sure it will help other people. Thanks.
