This is quite old (check this diff)

<?php echo date(__('F j, Y, h:i A'), bb_get_post_time()); ?>

replace it with

<?php bb_post_time( __('F j, Y, h:i A') ); ?>

You are using 0.8.3, right? You should use an updated theme.

Hey.

I checked the Database time and it is correct.

So it must be some theme/bbpress related error.

Here’s my search.php:

<?php bb_get_header(); ?>

<h3 class=”bbcrumb”>“><?php option(‘name’); ?> » <?php _e(‘Search’)?></h3>

<?php search_form( $q ); ?>

<?php if ( !empty ( $q ) ) : ?>

<h2><?php _e(‘Search for’)?> “<?php echo wp_specialchars($q); ?>”</h2>

<?php endif; ?>

<?php if ( $users ) : ?>

<h2><?php _e(‘Users’)?></h2>

<?php foreach ( $users as $user ) : ?>
• ID); ?>”><?php echo get_user_name( $user->ID ); ?>

<?php endforeach; ?>

<?php endif; ?>

<?php if ( $titles ) : ?>

<h2><?php _e(‘Thread title matches’)?></h2>

<?php

foreach ( $titles as $topic ) :

$count = $topic->topic_posts;

?>

1. <h4>“><?php topic_title(); ?></h4>

   <small><?php printf(__(‘ %1$d replies — Last reply: %2$s’), $count, get_topic_date(__(‘F j, Y’), $topic->topic_id) ) ?> </small>

<?php endforeach; ?>

<?php endif; ?>

<?php if ( $recent ) : ?>

<h2><?php _e(‘Recent Posts’)?></h2>

<ol class=”results”>

<?php foreach ( $recent as $bb_post ) : ?>

I reported a similar problem for the bbPress plugin forum about 6 weeks ago, but there is no action on the ticket.

https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/753

My guess is the template is calling the wrong time/timestamp function since it doesn’t happen with the stock kakumei theme.

[chrishajer]

AndrewMac, did you try the test in this post:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/registration-email-not-being-sent-new-issue?replies=15#post-6931

That will confirm if you can send mail from your server. It’s odd that WordPress works but bbPress does not. Is it possible the $bb->admin_email needs to be a real email address for the mails to be sent by your host? Is that a real email account?

Also, are there any mail logs or error logs? Maybe that would provide a clue.

[AndrewMac]

The irony is that I’m using WP on same site (integrated with BBpress) and the WP side of it works fine. At any rate, thanks for the feedback!

[adrio]

To install my bbpress do i need to create a new database?

I would integrate in my wordpress using same users.

[livibetter]

@Trent, this is nice post!

@AndrewMac, why don’t you just ask Dreamhost’s support? You know, your hosting fee includes getting support from them. Although, sometimes, finding a solution on our own is faster then counting on them. But. who knows? maybe they already manage a solution for bbPress? If so, please must post the solution!

[Trent Adams]

I can’t see how bbPress would be any different than wordpress in terms of the mail usage, so:

Emailed passwords not received

Description: When users try to register with your blog or change their passwords by entering their username and email, WordPress says that their password has been emailed to them, but it’s never received.

Reason and Solution: WordPress uses the standard php mail function, which uses sendmail. No account information is needed. This is not generally a problem if you’re using a hosting service, but if you’re using your own box and don’t have an SMTP server, the mail won’t ever send. If you’re using a *NIX box, you should have either postfix or sendmail on your machine; you’ll just need to set them up (google for how-to’s). If you don’t want to go through setting up a complete mail server on you *NIX box you may find ssmtp (http://packages.debian.org/stable/mail/ssmtp) useful – it provides “A secure, effective and simple way of getting mail off a system to your mail hub”. On a Windows machine, try a sendmail emulator like Glob SendMail (http://glob.com.au/sendmail/).

More help can be found on the forums at: https://wordpress.org/support/topic.php?id=24981

Translation, there are posts in the normal wordpress.org forums as well that even dreamhost for whatever reason doesn’t send the passwords out through sendmail. I would look in the dreamhost support as well, maybe an answer is right there for you to grab

We should probably start a new thread to talk about themes, but there is a nice showcase here:

http://bbshowcase.org/forums/view/available-themes

And searching the forum tag “theme” or “themes” turns up a lot (in addition to theme problems.) Now, good and simple are subjective, but these are as simple as they come:

http://bbpressraw.com/bbpress_blank_themes/

[livibetter]

@Trent and everyone, this plugin intercept login process, if the logging user hasn’t activated the account, then it will be redirect to bb-activate.php. After successful activation, the user will be redirect to bb-login.php.

And when new user is registering, this plugin doesn’t interfere the normal registering process but add an additional usermeta and send the activation code right after bbPress send the password mail.

So, there is no way this plugin will break the password being sent.

Edit: Currently, user gets TWO mails after registration, one is for password, another is for activation code. I am not planning to merge them into one, because that would have to touch many things and I don’t like that.

Edit: I knew there are some topics about mail problem, but I can’t find them now.

[viveksivaram]

@ chrishajer , thank you for the replies. My issues seem to be fixed now.

If only we can get some good and simple theme for bbpress.

[AndrewMac]

Hello, first off I want to thank you for this excellent pluggin.

Nevertheless, when users register at http://uniteformike.com/forums their password is never sent to them. BB-Activate is in my root directory and activate is in my root/bb-templates/superbold-bbpress (template folder) and the EnhancedRegistration folder is in my my-plugins directory, and the plugin is activated…

I hate to be one of those people, but what the heck am I doing wrong (version 0.8.3 )?

[chrishajer]

I thought I heard the replies in the URL was for RSS?

If you want to get rid of it, maybe this still works?

I just checked an example on my forum for comparison.

When I am logged in (not using permalinks at all):

When I am logged out:

Both work, neither is broken, they’re just different.

I checked it in this forum too (using slugs?)

@ chrishajer

thanks for the reply.

My site url is : http://aavaas.com

My forum url is : http://aavaas.com/forums

I have created a test user : bbpresstest

Password is : test

Currently there is only 1 post in my forum – “Your first topic”

When I am logged in the url for the same is : http://aavaas.com/forums/topic/1?replies=1

When I am logged out the url is : http://aavaas.com/forums/topic/1

I believe the later is a pretty permalink whereas the first is not.

Aye, same here. All worked nice in the version previous to .3 but now nothing……

[richsad]

Here’s where I’m at. if I modify the function get_profile_info_keys in /wpmu/bbpress/bb-includes/functions.php and change the definition of get_profile_info_keys to what I want, it’s all good. I changed the text to make it fit and apologize for poor formatting. The downside here is I am changing bbpress code, not my own template. There was no documentation indicating get_profile_info_keys is eligible for being plugged in, but it seems like it is. So I tried hardcoding first to see if this obtained the desired results. It did. The profile info prompts displayed correctly on registration page, the data was written the appropriate usermeta table, and viewing the profile displays the newly named fields and shows correct data. So far so good. Below is the code (sorry for poor formatting). Of course, the fatal flaw here is this NEEDS to be done in a plugin. So now I will tackle this. If anyone has a plugin sample for bbpress that shows modification of profile_info_keys I would be very grateful to take a peek. I believe by tomorrow I will have this hashed out and working properly as a plugin with no changes to core bbpress code. I will share that code here when I get there. In the meantime, feel free to flame, compliment, empower, disempower, or any other useful feedback! I am heading into no man’s land…

//meta_key => (required?, Label). Don’t use user_{anything} as the name of your meta_key.

function get_profile_info_keys() {

return apply_filters(

‘get_profile_info_keys’,

array(

‘user_email’ => array(1, __(‘Email’)),

‘tip’ => array(0, __(‘A tip you would like to share?’)), ‘favorite’ => array(0, __(‘Favorite products?’)),

‘more’ => array(0, __(‘How are you getting more?’)),

‘interest’ => array(0, __(‘Hobbies/interests?’))) );

/* original array follows

array(

‘user_email’ => array(1, __(‘Email’)),

‘user_url’ => array(0, __(‘Website’)),

‘from’ => array(0, __(‘Location’)),

‘occ’ => array(0, __(‘Occupation’)), ‘

interest’ => array(0, __(‘Interests’))) );

*/

What I’d love is to see someone has tread in these waters and knows how to use a plugin to implement an overridden get_profile_info_keys. I’m getting old for these all night programming marathons. It was fun the first three decades, but now the arthritis flares up and I have to break to take my Centrum Silver… So all help will result in admiration from me to you! Ships ahoy.

Not sure if this still applies, but I found something in the wp.org forums and posted it at:

Adding bbPress as WP Page

Trent

[kicksonfire]

Is there a way to have the bbpress forum show within one of the wordpress pages. I dont want my users to go from one site to another that looks different. I want them to stay on my blog yet do everything in the forum while still staying on the blog. is that possible?

[Trent Adams]

These might give you an idea how to do it (or might just work for you).

https://bbpress.org/plugins/tags/authentication

Trent

[Trent Adams]

From the FAQ:

Create a file called .htaccess in bbPress’ root directory. Put only the following line in that new file.

Options +MultiViews

Just upload a file like htaccess.txt with the line mentioned above and then use the FTP program to name it to .htaccess versus htaccess.txt (notice the dot before name).

WordPress is just thinking right now that you have a URL that doesn’t have an assigned page or post to it and it is getting screwed up! Try that one out!

Trent

[kicksonfire]

What is my .htaacess file on my bbpress folder suppose to say?

And how can i create it if i have a mac?

I have my own server with theplanet.com

[Trent Adams]

It might be that the .htaccess file of wordpress is over-writing the one that should be in the bbPress folder /beta/. I have heard this can happen. Do you have the .htaccess in the bbPress folder? What host are you running? I think (without searching) that this was something on GoDaddy, but I am not 100% sure…..

Trent

[Trent Adams]

I know nothing that would do it straight to bbPress, but one could be written based on the WP plugins like WP-AutoBlog, FeedWordPress or another Maggie based plugin.

I think the best bet would be to great a WP blog (hidden) that populates using one of the mentioned plugins and then a bbPress plugin like bbSync or bbPress-Post to pull the entries from WP into bbPress as entries.

It would be better to create a plugin that does it automatically, but if you don’t want to re-invent the wheel, that is the only solution I can think of right now.

Trent

[kicksonfire]

I have wordpress installed in my main directory kicksonfire.com

I have installed bbpress at http://kicksonfire.com/beta/

for some reason when i click anything it takes me to teh 404 error page of my wordpress blog… wat can be wrong?
