Unfortunately there are too many other things occupying my time right now as I’m in the middle of changing jobs. I anticipate I will have a lot more time to work on bbPress stuff in the future though. It will probably be mid November by the time I get things done.

[tbronson]

It seems to be a user thing. I’d been posting from a user that’d been established in WordPress. I updated it to Key Master in bbPress, so it should have all powers. But I found that, apart from tags, I couldn’t delete a post either, same no permission message (same as noted by Jolaedana above). So I logged out and logged in as Superadmin, the default account from bbPress installation, and voila, I can do everything, add tags, delete posts.

That doesn’t solve the problem. I haven’t tested to see what happens with other users, both already registered from WP and registered through bbPress. But it’s a workaround for me, and a…clue.

Perhaps my questions needs clarity. I’m aware of the plugin that enables the same username to have a blog and to post in forums. However, are profiles and avatars also consistent?

[jaysays]

I receive the following error after install:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in …/forum/config.php on line 18

The code relevant to line 18 is:

// The full URL of your bbPress install

$bb->uri = ‘http://thebigo.ejoculation.com/forum/’;

I’ve tried editing this to:

// The full URL of your bbPress install

$bb->uri = “http://thebigo.ejoculation.com/forum/”;

… as suggested in similar instances, but receive the same error.

It’s official, I don’t know the answer and I’m forced to admit there are smarter people out there than me. Can someone please help?

Hello everyone

Am I right in presuming that BBPress works just as well with WordPress-MU as it does with WordPress?

thanks

Try editing topic.php in the default template and replace:

<?php post_form(); ?>

with:

<?php post_form('Reply to this topic:'); ?>

This is a simple way to make the change you want.

Note that rather than editing the default template, you can make use of the powerful templating behaviour of bbPress if you create your own theme. With custom themes, bbPress will always pick up missing template files from the default kakumei theme! That means custom themes can be quite simple!

1. Create a directory called my-templates.
2. Create a directory in that directory called myfirsttheme.
3. Copy style.css, screenshot.png and topic.php from bb-templates/kakumei to your my-templates/myfirsttheme directory.
4. Edit my-templates/myfirsttheme/style.css and change:

   Theme Name: Kakumei

   to

   Theme Name: myfirsttheme

5. Change my-templates/myfirsttheme/topic.php with the change described above to topic.php.
6. At this point you should see your own custom template in the admin backend.

That allows you to setup your own theme. Then when new versions of bbPress come along you may not have to reedit the default templates – just copy your custom theme into the new/upgraded bbPress installation.

I hope that makes sense.

Note:

Sometimes new functionality in bbPress will mean that it is best to copy the default template files and re-apply your changes in your custom theme.

When I write a new post and hit the submit button, I get redirected to my main root blog page with the address bar reading “http://www.example.com/forum/bb-post.php”. It’s like the bb-post.php page doesn’t exist but it surely does, in fact my girlfriend is having no trouble posting to it as we speak! I’ve goten a few one-word posts to go through randomly but every other time, it kicks me out to my main root page. I have no idea what’s going on, I tried the “Fix bbPress

(0.8.1-1)” plugin and that didn’t help.

Has anyone seen this before?

[smu]

Hi Daniel,

Being relatively new to bbPress I am not sure how to do just that. Have you tried finding the relevant .pot or .po files for the plugins that you have installed? I think you need to have a separate translation file (.mo) for each plugin – similar to WordPress.

Alternatively, there is the hard way. Translate directly in the source code!

[Cal]

Thanks schmitt, got it working without too much trouble.

[Cal]

Yeah, it worked out fine.

If I remember correctly, I just integrated WP and BB first (minus the cookie settings). Then I installed Amember and installed the WP plugin. All 3 were installed in the same database. For BB cookies I think I just set them the same as _cK_ said in a different post here. For WP cookies, I believe that is in the Amember Plugin Readme file.

It wasn’t too tough. If you need to know anything else let me know and I can take a look. I’ve decided to go with PHPBB instead of BBpress but I still have it all installed at the moment. There’s nothing wrong with BBpress just want more group and permission control.

Hope that helps.

[Andrew]

Did you ever get this working? I plan to try soon.

Amember has a WordPress plugin but I’d like to know if it cascades successfully through a WordPress/BBPress integration.

I’ve just posted some updates. See this post on my site.

I will tidy up the downloads page so you can still get to old versions. For now you can only access links to the latest themes.

[Graeme]

You appear to be using identical style.css files for the wordpress and bbpress sections of your site. You can fix this by copying some CSS rules from one of my theme downloads.

I have just updated the blank bbPress themes at bbpressraw.com with new versions that have a forum-like tabular style.

You can see them in action via the theme switcher at the bottom of the bbpressraw.com forums page.

To solve your problem, I suggest you download one of the themes and copy all of the rules below:

/* Global Styles

=================================== */

hr {

display: none;

}

into the bottom of your bbPress theme stylesheet. This will allow you to pick up all the bbPress CSS rules that are applied by these themes. Tweak these CSS rules in order to change the appearance of the forums.

Enjoy!

Firefox displays the page correctly. Webkit and safari ( the same) have the format problem. Its only on the bbPress Extend page ( on this site) that firefox and safari disagree on how the site looks. I have a pic of the problem, just need to know how to post or send it for you to take a look at it. It could be the code on the page or a problem with Webkit.

Hey Michel!

Best bet would be to drop your request over in TRAC or on the dev list!

Hi,

It would be nice if there were a new hook implemented in the function : function bb_new_user( $user_login, $email, $url ) in the pluggable.php file. We want to implement our own algo to create a password for a registrar. So a hook before the new user is added to the database, would be most welcome. That way we can modify the password using a plugin before it is actually saved to the db.

grtz,

michel.

Felix,

Thanks for the tip. Alas, still not working.

– I am running the most recent version of bbPress.

– I added those two lines to my “config.php” file. (I assume it doesn’t matter where they are added within the file?) Now, when I attempt to save a post, I get this:

After installing the bbPress, i can’t see my topics, forums, tags… (everything) i tried everything but i cant fixed

Hey Joe,

try adding $bb_cache and $bbdb to the list of globals in your config.php file (as outlined earlier in this topic, or ask if you’re unsure). That seems to cause the error publishing articles. That said, right now I also get an error publishing but it seems to work fine – I’ll look at that when I’ve got my dev machine again.

The error for comments I don’t understand. Line 105 seems to be a function declaration: https://plugins-dev.bbpress.org/browser/bbsync/trunk/bbsync.php#L105, so how it could be missing an argument I don’t know. Are you using the latest version of bbsync, too?

[andajus]

Thanks, now that makes sense. One day learning bbpress and wordpress and it’s all working wonderfully – Great packages!

[Sam Bauers]

The files and folders need to be writable by the webserver user. You may have changed the permissions when you edited the files that exist there already.

The easiest approach (but insecure on shared hosting services) is to chmod the files.

chmod -R 777 bbpress-root/my-plugins

.

Or you can change ownership on those files to the webserver user, usually “www” or “apache” depending on the setup.

chown -R www:www bbpress-root/my-plugins

.

Remember that the upgrade facility of the plugin browser won’t maintain your manual changes to the plugins. You will need to re-edit the new versions.

Plugins that are installed normally will happily co-exist with those installed by the plugin-browser. Just keep them outside of the pb–xxxx folder structure.

[jolaedana]

Excellent idea! You’re bookmarked. Thanks.

Hello all,

I’m using the Plugin Browser by SamBauers.

I have a few plugins that I was using, and installed through this plugin (great stuff, btw) that I had modified the files on slightly. Main example here is the Page Links plugin- I had changed the page icon graphic to be different colors. I would like to overwrite the file in the Plugin Browser installation of the file, however it tells me I don’t have permissions to overwrite the file- or change permissions on the folder or files inside it.

Is there an easy work around for this, or should I just go back to the non Plugin Browser version? Thanks!

[Jim S.]

I just wanted to mention that I’ve finished up my bb-Bluesands theme as a complement to my Bluesands theme for WordPress. Feel free to download and test it out – and let me know if you run across any bugs.
