    Expected behaviour is that signing into one will sign you into the other.

    Can you please do the following:

    Clear your cookies.

    Log into wordpress and record what cookies are set, including domain and path (properties of each cookie).

    Clear your cookies again.

    Log into bb. Again record the cookies set. Are you logged into wp?

    Tell us the cookies set from each case.

    I did the original install as Trent specified above. I also added in fel64’s suggestion. I didn’t see any changes in the behavior as a result.

    Let me reiterate. BBPress and WOrdpress are sharing a user database now. I can sign into BBPress using the name/pw combo of any existing WordPress user.

    What I expected though, is that a user already signed into WordPress would transition into BBPress (for the first time, as a new user) and automatically be logged in. Currently, they need to relogin using the same WordPress username and password.

    Which behavior should be expected? I am looking for a seamless addition of forums for my existing client base….

    Thanks for the great help.

    Right off the cuff, I would do the following until you have it installed correctly:

    1) Remove:

    $bb->WP_BB = true;
    require_once( 'public_html/wp-blog-header.php' );

    2) Change to false:

    $bb->mod_rewrite = false;

    Once you have bbPress installed and integrated with wordpress (logins), then play around with the permalinks and the including bbPRess functions with WP.

    Trent

    I have spent three hours trying to figure out what I’m doing – can someone tell me if this config.php is correct?

    I have placed xxx’s in place of password, etc..

    <?php

    $bb->WP_BB = true;

    require_once( ‘public_html/wp-blog-header.php’ );

    // ** MySQL settings ** //

    define(‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘xqyevao_wrdp1’); // The name of the database

    define(‘BBDB_USER’, ‘xqyevao_wrdp1’); // Your MySQL username

    define(‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘xxxxxxxx’); // …and password

    define(‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

    // Change the prefix if you want to have multiple forums in a single database.

    $bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please!

    // The full URL of your bbPress install

    $bb->uri = ‘http://teachtheboss.com/forums/&#8217;;

    // What are you going to call me?

    $bb->name = ‘Teach The Boss Forums’;

    // This must be set before you run the install script.

    $bb->admin_email = ‘ronaldp423xxxxx.com’;

    // Set to true if you want pretty permalinks, set to ‘slugs’ if you want to use slug based pretty permalinks.

    $bb->mod_rewrite = true;

    // The number of topics that show on each page.

    $bb->page_topics = 30;

    // A user can edit a post for this many minutes after submitting.

    $bb->edit_lock = 60;

    // Your timezone offset. Example: -7 for Pacific Daylight Time.

    $bb->gmt_offset = -5;

    // Change this to localize bbPress. A corresponding MO file for the

    // chosen language must be installed to bb-includes/languages.

    // For example, install de.mo to bb-includes/languages and set BBLANG to ‘de’

    // to enable German language support.

    define(‘BBLANG’, ”);

    // Your Akismet Key. You do not need a key to run bbPress, but if you want to take advantage

    // of Akismet’s powerful spam blocking, you’ll need one. You can get an Akismet key at

    // http://wordpress.com/api-keys/

    $bb->akismet_key = ‘xxxxxxxx’; // Example: ‘0123456789ab’

    // The rest is only useful if you are integrating bbPress with WordPress.

    // If you’re not, just leave it as it is.

    $bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // WordPress table prefix. Example: ‘wp_’;

    $bb->wp_home = ‘http://teachtheboss.com&#8217;; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // Example: ‘http://example.com&#8217;

    $bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://teachtheboss.com&#8217;; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // Example: ‘http://example.com&#8217;

    /* Stop editing */

    if ( !defined(‘BBPATH’) )

    define(‘BBPATH’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/’ );

    require_once( BBPATH . ‘bb-settings.php’ );

    ?>

    You may have to add

    $bb->cookiepath = '/';

    to your config.php if it doesn’t work straight away.

    If you have the same domain so it should be simple. Keep in mind that bbPress will use the WP users after doing this and both programs have to be installed in the same database:

    // The rest is only useful if you are integrating bbPress with WordPress.
    // If you're not, just leave the rest as it is.

    $bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_'; // WordPress table prefix. Example: 'wp_';
    $bb->wp_home = www.nyquistcapital.com'; // WordPress - Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash. Example: 'http://example.com'
    $bb->wp_siteurl = 'www.nyquistcapital.com'; // WordPress - Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash. Example: 'http://example.com'

    The favorite topics is part of the core and available with every bbPress installation. You can also find plugins and templates at Pro Forums.

    I just installed bbPress.

    Now, I need to learn how to customize the forum’s appearance.

    Apparently, a lot of customization done through plugins.

    I found the following:

    Using Plugins

    To use a plugin, simply create a directory in your main bbPress directory called my-plugins and put the plugin file in it. bbpress does not currently have a plugin activation/deactivation interface like WordPress’. Any .php file in your /my-plugins directory will be run.

    Looking for plugins? Try our plugin browser http://bbpress.org/plugins/

    I like adding the ‘This topic is one of your favorites’ feature.

    How would I find if this is an available plugin?

    If so how would I find where to download it?

    Did it not say what the fatal error was?

    In any case, at a hunch putting

    if( !function_exists('force_balance_tags') ) {

    in front of ck’s code, and

    }

    before the add_filter(... bit, could fix it. I don’t run it myself so this is a long shot.

    Looked like a nice tweek-plugin, but it produced a “fatal error” when I activated it. Looks like it has something to do with this suggested code:

    add this to a plugin

    function force_balance_tags($text) {return balanceTags($text, true);}

    add_filter(‘pre_post’, ‘force_balance_tags’);

    When I added this to the bbcode plugin it resulted in the same fatal error when activated…

    I dropped the bbPress tables in my database and did a reinstall.

    The installation went fine.

    I discovered my original installation falied because of a typo

    I had entered ‘http://mywebsite.com/forums/&#8217;;

    I should have entered ‘http://mywebsite.com/forum/&#8217;;

    On this install I didn’t want to integrate with the WordPress database.

    Now I need to learn how to customize the forum’s appearance.

    Is there a way to change the forum name within Administration or will I have to edit the config.php file and FTP it?

    Is a lot of customization done through plugins and php templates?

    I found this online.

    [The best way to start off is to create a new directory inside the root folder of the bbpress install called “my-templates”. Any php templates place in this folder with the same name as in “bb-templates” will override the original files. For example, if you modify front-page.php and upload it to “my-templates”, bbpress will pull the customized front-page.php file.]

    Fore instance I like adding the ‘This topic is one of your favorites’ feature.

    Should be. If they are on the same domain, it is certainly possible. In a small set of cases you will need to add two simple lines of code to your bbpress config.php. What URLs do you (want to) have bbpress and wp at? Tell us and we can tell you what code to add.

    Posting jobs from company websites (NOT job boards) is fine. Infact, you are doing them a favour.

    Job postings are like advertisements.

    I don’t know. But they have 306 plugins http://lussumo.com/addons/index.php?Sort=Recent.

    Looking through the documentation, it’s quite interesting but you’ll find writing plugins much more difficult. It really requires you to understand, or at least work with, OO (extending classes and the like), whereas in bb you can do well with just functions.

    _ck_: Thanks for the Tweaks plugin. Very useful! :)

    I’m not sure I understand. Is this a technical problem with bb or a conceptual problem with your idea?

    If you make fake accounts so you can post threads with the right dude’s name, and the right dude turns up later, just give him your fake account. That’s not automatable by default, you would have to manually edit the profile to set their email and then let them set their own password. But it would work.

    Do you have the right dude’s permission to post his jobs?

    Changing the width of the theme is easy; all it takes is a single change in a CSS file. If they hard-coded the width into the HTML, they deserve the extra work. :P

    I think that if you use they backticks on an inline basis the overflow is hidden, but if you use it for paragraphs (specifically: backtick is in line above your code, I think) the overflow remains.

    For example, a really long path like var/www.mywebsite.com/htdocs/wordpress/bbpress/bb-includes/template-functions.php or whatever will be cut off. If there had been spaces, it should wrap.

    But a paragraph of code will have the scrollbar.

    <?php
    /*
    Plugin Name: o/
    */
    function withareallylongnamethatjustneverstopsandthefunctiondoesn'tevendoanythinguseful() {
    return true;
    }

    Ok.

    No offence to the wordpress.com people. But i just went on the wordpress.com support forum and searched for ‘CMS’ and almost everyone there has a lot of trouble making wordpress.com into a CMS.

    All the reply posts about CMS on there have all been just ‘advice’, no real action to build on.

    Can you please show me some websites that use WordPress, that are not blogs?

    Something with some functionality in them.

    Thanks,
