Hello,
There is really no solution for that ?
It’s a pitty to have a WP companion forum and been unable to really use it….
Hey all,
I at this point in time just don’t have the time nor inclination to install a fresh BB press and get all the things I want to work, to work. I have the time to mess around with a template but that’s about it.
Anyone out there who knows their stuff interested in installing a copy along with getting all the various plugins to work for some cash?
If so I can give you the ‘spec’ of what I am looking for.
Cheers!
On my new site http://www.SportSayer.com , you can check out what I did. I send all logins and profile views to bbpress’s version, the user never (hopefully) sees the wordpress login page or wordpress plugin page. I like how bbpress is more integrated into the site rather than wordpress’s which is a different template.

I just finished this new site of mine. Need to get the Forums going so if any of you would like to participate, that would be awesome.
I have them working together at my new site: http://www.SportSayer.com
You can’t install in such a way that ‘Forum’ will be automagically listed under your pages and appear in your WP theme.
However, you can install so that it uses the same user database. You can also add ‘Forum’, say, to your pages list and have it redirect to the actual forum (using a WP Page redirection plugin). You can also make the theme such on bb that it looks just like your wp theme, or use the wp header – trickier, but fairly well documented around here.
Is bbPress 0.8.3 compatible with WP 2.3.1 ?
thanks!
Hello,
I have a wordpress “blog” that I’m using for my website, http://www.discoultimate.com and I would like install bbpress on a seperate page so people can communicate. Is there a way to install bbpress almost like its just another page in wordpress? bbPress sounds great and I’m excited to use it but I’m just not sure how to impliment it on and already existing wordpress blog.
Any help or advice is appreciated,
Dan
Thanks again,
I just overwrote /bb-includes/db-mysqli.php with /bb-includes/db.php and then tried it again it got this message
Warning: mysql_get_server_info() [function.mysql-get-server-info]: Access denied for user ‘jim1234’@’localhost’ (using password: NO) in /home/jim1234/public_html/forum/bb-includes/db.php on line 73

Do you know of another good forum software that is much easier to install? Thanks
i call it like this:
if ( !defined('BBDB_NAME') )
require_once(ABSPATH.'forum/bb-load.php');
the problem started after the integration of wordpress and bbpress…so i don’t know what the problem ist.
mdawaffe do you have a idea how i can fix this?
i have one more problem…i can’t add links to my posts…when i post a link in the entry it shows only <a>test</a>…any idea?
jaithn
i’m running now bbpress.83 and wpmu 1.3…
The “Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by” error comes from having whitespace before the opening <?php or after the closing ?> in a php file. I would check any modified files for an extra blank line at the beginning or end and see if deleting the line takes care of the problem.
Okay. I finally got it. I think this is a bug of bbPress.
line 29-55 in rss.php ensures there is a post found at least, if not then die().
Normally, we see no entries in a feed if there is no posts matched. But bbPress choose to die. You can replace each line of die(); with a dummy statement like
1; // die();
However, this is no enough. The third statement from bottom:
bb_send_304( $posts[0]->post_time );
Replace it with
if ($posts)
bb_send_304( $posts[0]->post_time );
Since bbPress can’t find any posts, therefore it has no way to decide that should it send a 304.
Can anyone confirm this is a bug about choosing to die?
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 ‘/p> ‘,’2007-11-04 07:21:38’, ‘59.92.136.76’, ‘0’, 1)’ at line 5]
INSERT INTO bb_posts (forum_id, topic_id, poster_id, post_text, post_time, poster_ip, post_status, post_position) VALUES (’11’, ‘7’, ‘9’, ‘
This is the error that I get when ‘ is used anywhere in the post. Any fix for it? Thanks.

I installed wordpress without problem for two different blogs, but cannot get bbpress to install. I’ve spent a few hours trying out things this past week with no success. The patch by mdawaffe fixes my error messages related to mysql_get_server_info, however I still get some other strange messages:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /homepages/10/d171407036/htdocs/bcg/mastertemplate/blog/bbpress/bb-includes/db-mysqli.php:473) in /homepages/10/d171407036/htdocs/bcg/mastertemplate/blog/bbpress/bb-admin/install.php on line 10

Can anyone help me with this? I just set up a WordPress blog for a new product we’re distributing, and would like a forum in conjunction with it, so bbPress would be perfect.
If I can’t set up bbPress right now because the code is buggy, does anyone have suggestions for other forum software? I would even be ok with temporarily using a different forum setup, then porting it over to bbPress later (if that’s straightforward???).
Thanks in advance for any help or advice. I’m a knowledgeable computer consultant, but pretty inexperienced in blogs/forums. I can follow the conversation about patching the php files, and did so using standard web authoring tools. However, I’m not interested in becoming an expert on code versions or using diff tools. I just want a forum software that works well with my new blog for the benefit of our clients, with a minimum of fuss.
Instead you can make bbPress look like your blog. I stumbled onto Aditya Naik’s integratePress post.
http://www.adityanaik.com/integratepress-part-i/
bbPress has been installed as subdir of wp blogs.
I found a template I like for wp blog but I would like to share it to bbPress.
Probably this cannot be done just by one click.
What’s your advise about this issue?
I was looking to create a new template for bbPress which would look like wp one. Problem is how can I use the blog functions into bbPress ?
Thanks,
wp is great
I have the same problem on a bbPress install I just set up. The top level feed just returns the text “No input file specified.”
Lower level feeds work as long as the topics have content. If they have no posts, it returns a blank page, which generates an error in some readers. This won’t be a problem as more posts are filled in, but it would be nice to return an empty feed now to avoid the errors.
Normally, bbPress is not this bad. A couple bugs were introduced which create problems on some systems. My install from a year ago was no where near this hard, but I checked out the new code and if I installed it I would have had this same trouble.
I think the line 80 being referenced is line 80 of /bb-includes/db-mysqli.php
https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/trunk/bb-includes/db-mysqli.php#L80
I think there are 3 possible workarounds:
1. You can try overwriting /bb-includes/db-mysqli.php with /bb-includes/db.php
2. You can manually modify line 80 of /bb-includes/db-mysqli.php
3. You can apply the 745c.diff patch attached to trac ticket 745
4. Wait for mdawaffe to fix it permanently.
I guess a 5th option is to move on to other forum software. I hope you don’t do that. bbPress is nice when it works (which is 99.9% of the time.)
Thanks again chrishajer,
Yeah I’m running windows so I have no idea what the equivalent would be.
mdawaffe keeps talking about “line 80”, changing “line 80”. But I don’t know, line 80 of what? lol.
Man I had no idea that installing bbpress was going to be so difficult, installing wordpress itself was not bad at all.
I believe that it was a problem with the way my host (GoDaddy) deals with .htaccess files. I was also having major issues with the same as this: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/pretty-permalinks-not-working?replies=29#post-5247
All-in-all, I would say stay away from GoDaddy if you are trying to do a integrated wordpress/bbpress site. I have moved the site to another host and all issues have been resolved.
Anyone ever come up with a solution from Vanilla to BBPress? I’m having daily requests to move from Vanilla and NO ONE has a converter.
You have to keep your custom templates up to date your self.
You might want to use the browser in the trac site to see which files have changed.
https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/trunk/bb-templates/kakumei
Okay, the 9rules notes is the coolest bbpress forum I’ve seen yet. It looks almost like a combination of a blog and a forum. Any tips on how to do something like that? The little preview is amazing and the number of responses looks great too.
