As everyone knows, if a user registers in bbpress instead of through wordpress(mu) that user doesn’t get a default role set.
I’ve dug and dug on both the bbpress and wpmu forums and haven’t found a fix for this. I did find a fix that apparently works for wordpress, but I tried it for wordpress mu with no luck.
The 4th post in this thread explains a way to set roles in wordpress mu.
I imagine that a plugin with the combination of the two solutions would allow users to register through bbpress and get a default role on the main wordpress mu blog. But, unfortunately I have no clue what I’m doing. If anyone has a free minute or two to look at the bits of code and maybe hack something together that would be awesome.
Oh, and I’m using the latest versions of both bbpress and wpmu.
This is interesting… because bbpress loads the plugins in order, the bb-benchmark plugin is getting loaded nearly last on my system, so I only see the output from the onlinelist plugin.
It looks like the vast majority of the execution time is before the plugins even get loaded.
Oh sorry I forgot to update you (check the extend area from time to time) but I released it like a week ago…
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/62
I’ve put 0.16 into the SVN, I think it updates on the hour.
Once you have 0.16 installed, go edit bb-settings.php in the bbpress root and around line 157 change that section so you add the line bb_benchmark_template_timer('',$plugin.' loaded');
like so:
if ( $plugins = bb_get_option( 'active_plugins' ) )
foreach ( (array) $plugins as $plugin ) {
if ( file_exists(BBPLUGINDIR . $plugin) ) {
require( BBPLUGINDIR . $plugin );
bb_benchmark_template_timer('',$plugin.' loaded');
} }
do_action( 'bb_plugins_loaded' );
unset($plugins, $plugin);
.
That will give you the super detailed output, so if there is a single plugin that is consistently slowing your page load down, you might be able to spot it.
Oh and bbPress’s (and WordPress’s) biggest weakness is not mysql queries – it’s actually all the plugins loading.
Unless you use an opcode cache or have really good disk caching on your host, loading a dozen or more plugins can cause those longer delays.
If you are on a VPS, you need eaccelerator or some other opcode cache. A few shared hosts like dreamhost let you install your own copy of php+fastcgi and eaccelerator too (but I do not recommend DreamHost, quite the opposite).
Cool…
(still waiting for the theme franzy that came with wordpress – to arrive at bbpress)
Hmmm I’m trying to make use of this plugin but I’m having some issues – The plugin shows up in the admin and I have enabled it and pulled down the latest list of plugins available – No problems there..
However, when I try to install a plugin off the list – it creates the appropriate directory and informs me that the plugin has been installed but when I go to activate it – I don’t see it in the plugin list and when I check the contents of the directory – its empty – the permissions on the directory are set to 755
Anyone any ideas?
Wow… I really love the topic pages, just incredible.
This is not my site but I just saw it and was very impressed!

My eyes LOVE the colours. I wish I had a WP theme just like it (oh and they seem to be using my Signatures plugin!)
So I guess you want a converter? Or what?
If it is a converter you want, you’re out of luck because there are very few and I haven’t seen or found one for PHP Fusion. If you want to write your own and have a problem, people here can probably help.
All I want is my members transferred to BBPress from my forums. Thanks

Check out the bbMenu plugin, it adds a menu to you bbPress. Don’t think it works with rtl, but perhaps you can convert the normal css (see plugin) to the rtl css
The plugin:

And to add a tab:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-addmenutab-10?replies=1
If any changes are needed in the rtl css and you make it work, let me know
I didnt know i cant leave email address on this forum, sorry about that. Now i need someone who can integrate BBpress to my existing portal. Any takers…?
My .htaccess located in /forums/ had a permission of 644.
I didn’t delete the htaccess, just disabled permalink.. so I still have the contents of the file (I pulled it directly from bbpress rewrite php file):
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

Did you follow the instructions to the letter? I know most people don’t have the correct permissions on their .htaccess file in the bbPress folder or don’t just put the 1 single line of code in for problems.

Do either of these plugins give you an idea or work for you?
Trent
Thanks for responding.. there was one problem I fixed here…
Noobish CSS Question
If you have few posts (and a lot of tags) the tag list would run off the page. While this is rare, it is common in cases where all but one of the forums would be private- new users would see the ugly tag overflow.
Thanks for a great theme… much appreciated.
It appears your server is Microsoft-IIS/6.0. When I access this page I get this error:
Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL which is required for bbPress.
Are you certain your server has MySQL installed? And if MySQL is installed, did you fill out the database details in the config-sample.php, then rename that file to config.php?
At first I thought it might be a syntax problem in the config file, which is a possibility too.
I need someone familliar with BBPress to integrate BBpress onto a portal that i am developing now. Pls email me at froots@gmail.com if anyone is intrested. Thanks in advance
I’ve got wpmu and bbpress both installed and working. I’ve also got the user databases integrated for the most part. Things work well so far for the most part. If a user registers through wpmu the user is created and they are also able to login to bbpress. However, if a user registers through the forum they are not able to login to wpmu because no role is set.
I installed the bbpress-integration plugin <http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-integration/> to the mu-plugins directory which should fix the problem, no dice. I’ve read that some people just remove the bbpress registration and just make everyone register through wpmu to avoid this. That just seems dirty to me.
If anyone has any ideas I’d love to hear them
Hi there, here’s my first attempt on BBpress , although I have been pretty good at making website’s with WordPress but this was my first attempt to have a forum’s at my very new blog.
Here’s the link to my forums powered by BBpress.
http://www.aguywitha.com/_main/forum
I had a choice of integrating it with wordpress using the wordpress header and footer … but in my case i felt that designing a bbpress in itself like my wordpress theme was a bit easy for me as I was having some difficulties with integrating it with my blog interface … so I managed to make the default kakumei theme look my original wordpress blog theme … and integrate the users …
Although there will always be small changes being made on the forums as this was the first time i went through the BBpress code and I just love the simplicity.
Thanks a lot …
