_ck_, are you saying that you will also contribute to the bb codebase or are you just talking about something unrelated?
> The rush job on the WP 2.3 release is suspect.
Maybe something for the WP forums.
I think there might be reduced bb activity for a while as mdawaffe will be working on backPress if I understood that right. The work will also be useful to bb, but bb is not the sole aim of the project.
[Edit] Thanks for taking care of that duplicate for me, Trent.
I have a site in which I’m using bbPress for user login/registration, but I also have Gallery2 installed for photo gallery. Gallery is configured in “embedded” mode, so that bbPress login is used – i.e. a unified login.
When I try to type quotes in a text field in the embedded Gallery, I get escaped quotes (i.e. ” turns into /”). This doesn’t happen in bbPress, but it also doesn’t happen in the NON-embedded Gallery. So, it has to be something to do with the interaction of the two applications.
The thing is, I am out of ideas. bbPress turns off magic quotes w/in the code, and so does Gallery2, plus it’s off in my php.ini. Is there some code within bb-load.php or other included files which parse all text fields? Any thoughts?
That’s pretty amazing. I absolutely love the concept too. GREAT site.
Hi _ck_, thanks for giving your frames of time.
BTW: to what problems/limitation of WP, are you referring to ? (I am curious to know)
I’ll be getting back to bbPress, devoting much more time to my bbPress showcase/plugins/themes in October and hopefully that will help in it’s own little way to promote bbPress adoption (and therefore my original scheme of attracting more coders to it).
The rush job on the WP 2.3 release is suspect. I personally felt it was way too soon and could have benefited from much more. I recently installed 2.3 for a new site and kept asking myself why are there the same problems/limitation I encountered with my first 2.0 setup? I notice 2.3 just happens to coincide with the release of the new “WordPress for Dummies” book and I believe the author is a close friend of Matt’s? Hmm. But oh well, enough ranting about WP and back to nagging about bbPress

That’s a really old version of Support Forums, not sure if it has anything to do with your problem, but it is really old.
yes i believe so, but its strange that everything works fine, when i remove the bbpress integration…i can run wordpress with all my plugins (inlcuding next gen gallery) flawlessy, my visual editor displays fine, and i get no browser errors, but when i integrate bbpress it sparks all types of errors with my plugins, im giving up this afternoon, ive spent the last 3 days doing nothing but trying to correct this…i do appreciate your help tho..thanks
Ah, so it’s a plugin issue also, with WordPress, for nextGen Gallery. Interesting…
This seems related as well:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/104960 (page 3)
Seems like it’s more of an issue with the WP plugin than with bbPress integration? Or maybe when both plugins are activated?
bbpress forum support chinese word?
ok so according to my error console in firefox…
Error: realTinyMCE is not defined
Source File: http://www.figmentrolling.com/wp-includes/js/tinymce/tiny_mce_gzip.php?ver=20070326
Line: 43
thats the problem…any ideas on how to manually define realTineMce? or whats causing it not to be defined after integrating bbpress..?
Thank you, I’ve understood the un-integrating issue.

Dang it’s been forever since I’ve been here. I’ll have to find that on a CD backup and then send you the files Trent. Sorry folks for being AWOL. Just had alot going on.
Hi All:
I just launched http://forums.apple2games.com/ using BBPress. Apple 2 Games Forum is a site dedicated to retro gaming on the Apple 2 systems.
I’m super happy with bbPress… very clean code, super easy to “hack” and the price is right! Can’t say that about other bloated systems
if ( !defined(‘BBDB_NAME’) )
require_once(ABSPATH.’/../forums/bb-load.php’);
thats the line that i got in wp-config
the admin write page references the TineMce for the editor i believe, does your install feature this directory? (tinymce)
its something strange..i need to locate the exact script that displays the icons and see what variables live there…i havnt done this yet, do you think it is possibly a cookie issue?
i dont quite understand how integrating bbpress from a completely seperate directory can even impact the admin write page…and im surprised noone else has had this issue..
maybe it has something to do with my webhost maybe? i hear see people have alot of issues with godaddy’s php hosting..
thanks for the help
Ok, I fixed my lack of admin access by going into wp_usermeta and deleting the “bb_capabilities” key for my wp user ID, then re-installing. All seems healthy now! Thanks everyone
OK so i successfully completed a BBpress / WPress integration…logins are all synced and i can successfulled login to bb or wp…thats all straightened out and everything appears to be working great..
one bug im noticing now is in WP, in my Visual Editor [write post], all the icons that were once there (Bold, Italic, Font, Font Size, Add Link, Add pic…etc.) that hole graphical bar dissappears…
i’ve narrowed it down to some kind of caching problem…because i deactivated the integration pluggin in wordpress.. removed the line of code in my wp-config.php…cleared my cache and the visual editor re-appears
now when i went back in to re-activate the bbpress integration plugin and got the bbpress back up, and go to check out my visual editor in WP, its there ! great!!! but just to be sure it wont go away, i clear my cache, refresh the page, and its gone again….any ideas?!!!?!
THANKS FOR ANY HELP MY NINJAS
Hey Allen, this is Allen. I found your fix here:
Can’t Login!
If anyone else has this problem you might need to add “www” in front of the URLs in the config file. I am guessing this is needed because of my redirection in the site’s root htaccess file.
Ok, I added data in the bb_forums table and now the forums come up. Yay! My problem now is that I can’t get into the forum admin section. When I installed bbpress, it found user “chanzero” and assigned my account as keymaster but when I log in it won’t show me the admin link, nor can i surf to /bb-admin/
I looked at my RoleID in wp_users and it’s 4, which I think should grant me access to BB admin?
I just installed bbPress, ran the plugin for WordPress to integrate the users, and I cannot login as the administrator. I am using the password for wordpress (I’ve even reset it and re-installed bbPress to make sure I had the right one).
Trying to log in at the top just takes me to the login page. Trying to login on the login page just “resets” the page, with no option about recovering a lost password.
Is there anyway to reset / recover the password that bbpress thinks is my wordpress password? Does this sound like some other login problem?
Can you add this line to your config.php right after the 4 MySQL setting lines:
$bb->debug = 1;
That should provide some useful information. Not sure if it will help here though.
The bb_users table will not be created automatically. You’d have to copy it and the user meta tables from the WP ones.
The counts problem is strange, and not one I’ve heard of before. Do you any plugins installed?
I knew it was something simple.. some sleep helped me figure out I was missing a ‘global $forum’
I got it working with the following:
In my theme’s functions:
<?php
function show_bblogin() {
global $forum;
if ( $forum ) {
login_form();
if ( is_bb_profile() ) profile_menu();
} else {
echo '<a href="/forum/">Visit the Forum!</a></br>';
}
}
?>
and in my sidebar:
<?php show_bblogin(); ?>
Works like a champ.
fel64: you’re right, bb_forums is indeed empty. however i’ve run through the entire installation numerous times, including the page you linked to, and nothing ever populates there. which is strange. should i put some dummy data in there to trick the install?
Sounds like your bb_forums table is empty. If it is, bb thinks it hasn’t been installed yet. Just continue with this install from here: http://www.popcultureshock.com/pcs/forum/bb-admin/install.php?step=1
