This is definitely worth doing. bbPress needs to have template functions that allow you to get the ‘next’ or ‘previous’ forum and topic. This would allow themes to include nice navigation links like ‘Next Thread’, ‘Next Forum’ instead of always having to jump to the front. WordPress does this for posts.

I’ve looked all around and I’m just not seeing anything like this.

I’m going to mess around with some code – it looks like the BB_Walker has a stepping ability built in that SHOULD make this pretty trivial, but I’m still getting comfortable with the inner bbPress classes and such. I’ll post here if I come up with anything. If anyone else has tried this or knows of a plugin that exists already – let me know. I couldn’t find one. Again – this isn’t pagination when you have lots of posts/threads. This is when you are in a topic or post view, being able to navigate to the next post, thread, or forum – i.e. like flipping pages of a book.

I just discovered something and wanted to run it by the forum. I agree…when I registered in bbPress and then logged into WordPress as the administrator, that new registrant was not given a role.

However, after I actually logged on as the new person and then logged BACK on as the administrator to see what was what…the person’s role was actually changed to “Subscriber” – my default role in WordPress.

So, if this is true, and I’m not missing something that could catch me up…it seems that this whole issue might be mute. Once the user actually logs in, their role is set as the default role so their rights are restricted by that role.

Has anyone else experienced this? Am I perhaps missing something that I’m really going to regret if I don’t fix this?

Thanks,

K

No I don’t mean a folder within a folder, that’s just fine and not a problem. I mean executing one within the other where they are both running at the same time on one page. That’s a huge amount of code and memory for any server, shared or dedicated.

The nice thing about the registration and login process is you can route back to any page you want as the wordpress system is much more developed. I have the code around here somewhere and posted it before…

see #5 on the list in this post:

Two things:

I DO have my bbPress folder running inside my WordPress folder. You’re thinking this is a bad idea??? Any suggestions as to why? I thought I read on here that it wasn’t a bad idea to this. I probably read wrong though……

Second — if my bbPress IS actually inside my WordPress folder, any other ideas why I’m getting the error message?

I guess one more (sorry)…if you’re forcing all registration links to go to WordPress, where does this process take your users after they register? Back to bbPress? To WordPress? That might work…but for my site, I’d need it to go back to bbPress; I’m dealing with a lot non-techies and any weirdness will throw them for sure. I need to try and make it as easy as possible for them.

Thanks again for any help,

Ah apparently Detective’s method is for sites running WP at the same time as bbPress (not just integrated, running within each other – which I do not recommend). So this won’t work for most people.

I solved the problem by forcing all registration links to go through WordPress but obviously that’s not a perfect answer (and needs core hacks).

So this problem needs to be revisted again

[kboan23]

I’m trying to create this plugin. When I try to register using bbPress, I get this error message…

Fatal error: Class ‘WP_User’ not found in /home/sbisdedt/public_html/web20/forum/my-plugins/default-role.php on line 11

The registration actually takes place; the person receives the email with the password; their registration shows up in both WordPress and bbPress.

But how do I stop that error message from appearing. What could I have possibly done wrong.

Thanks for your help.

Thank you for your response. I had actually already read that page and followed the steps. As it turns out, the issue was that when viewing the site on a MAC in Firefox, the login/site admin link always reverted back to login in WordPress; and even though I was logged in, in bbpress it always asked me to log in again. It did this when I jumped back and forth between the two sites.

As it turns out, I was actually always logged in…the links just didn’t toggle to the correct position. When i looked at the site on IE using a PC, the links did as expected. I guess the first time IE out performed Firefox…or it may have been the difference between viewing on a MAC versus PC. I don’t know.

I’m not going to worry about it. 99% of the people viewing the site will be viewing it in IE (work related forum).

Thanks again,

K

Go ahead and try it and you’ll see:

There are at least three pages…

Registration is open? Where do you see it disabled?

[benbeltran]

Sure … but i had to make some hacks to the template-functions *shame* to allow for color-changing tag-cloud.

I don’t know better.

Looks great _ck_ ! When are you going to re-enable registration on your forums?

Please let me know if I missed any decent themes available?

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

You can click on them to get a general idea what they look like in action. Themes reset back to default in three minutes (or use the theme switcher in the bottom right hand corner on any page).

Still needs a bug fix or two but I’ll release that as a “My Views” module along with the theme switcher probably this coming weekend.

Whew. That was a project and a half.

[baptiste]

I use this theme at:

http://plugins.baptiste.us/forums/

matching the site theme itself. Works great. I should put together a diff of the modifications I made to tweak things like removing the urchin code and fixing a few other quirks….

[_ck_]

Very nice work. Extremely visually pleasing theme.

However you just might want to remove your google urchin tracking code from the template footer you distribute. Most bbPress newbies won’t catch that and it could get your Google account banned if they report it.

[_ck_]

Oh that looks fantastic benbeltran (is that theme available for my theme demo?)

The list is slowly but steadily coming long.

I either keep getting distracted or burnt out on bbpress stuff.

I cautiously “promise” to put something up this coming weekend.

ps. yup, grindhouse was already on the list…

[benbeltran]

@beer: nice.

I guess It’s time to put my link … http://temporadadepatos.net/foros/ (spanish).

By the way, how is this coming aorund anyways?

Actually, now that I look at theirs, mine uses a completely different technique and might be better in some ways…

Coming soon:

Doh! Looks like someone make a theme switcher half a year ago but I can’t see it in action or the proforums site?

New – Theme Switcher

Ah, here’s the original post:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/req-theme-demo-switcher-like-phpbb?replies=19

Never got added to the extend section either, oh well.

I hate duplicating work but I learned even more about the bbpress internals…

[_ck_]

I couldn’t find anyone who made a bbPress theme switcher (not a style switch, but the entire template) so I modified (somewhat deeply) one from WordPress last night. Took some research and testing!

I’ve added it here, you can see the dropdown at the very bottom right:

http://bbshowcase.org/forums/

(if you are willing to edit all your themes you can put the dropdown anywhere, otherwise it will default to that location on each theme automagically – a new feature!)

So give me your themes and I’ll add them to the list to see if I can find the bbPress breaking point…

[bordercollie]

Hey,

hi,

this runs bbpress:

http://support.technorati.com/

as does this:

http://support.technorati.com/faq

i had to change a lot of bbpress auth/cookie code in order to integrate w/ technorati member authentication, member profiles, member profile pics, global templates and so on; but these bbpress installations have been up for six months or so without a hitch. thx!

[neyoung]

fel,

Just a quick question about the plugin before I install it. From the readme it sounds like the bbpress topic is the only place where wp comments and bbpress replies will be shown in the correct order (ie. by post times). The wp post will show all the wp comments first and then the bbpress replies secondly via the felbbreplies() function. Is this correct?
