To get bbpress login integrated with WPMU I had to add the following lines to config.php, after $bb->wp_xxx settings:

if ( isset( $bb->wp_table_prefix ) ){

$bb->usercookie = ‘wordpressuser’;

$bb->passcookie = ‘wordpresspass’;

}

Because WPMU does not use HASH in its COOKIES.

Does editing your .htaccess to just having the following and nothing else work?:

Options +MultiViews

Does that work? Having it of course in your /bbpress/ folder only so that it is not screwing up your wordpress .htaccess file. Does that work for your installation?

Here’s a couple things to try.

Disable all your plugins.

Set $bb->mod_rewrite = false; in your bbPress’ config.php.

Hi, I just successfully installed bbpress and I love it to bits!

I’m not sure why but new posts are automatically deleted from my forum. Is this part of a spam preventive feature? Or did i miss something?

Thanks for everything!

[karaboga]

Thanks for your explanations, i hope bbPress will be as clever as WordPress.

[Trent Adams]

Did you put the .htaccess file in your http://bqtrademark.com/bbpress/ from the instructions? I see that you are using ‘slug’ based entries. Maybe try putting the config.php back to false instead of slugs and see if that helps you. Since it is getting your wordpress installation, i am thinking it is the wordpress .htaccess file and not the bbPress file.

[antonskey]

like i said, i haven’t implemented this plugin as of yet (haven’t even installed bbpress, just planning to in the near future), but will this plugin allow me to put the “Add this topic to your favorites” link on the wordpress post page? i would like to have that capability to allow the users who don’t comment to create a list of their favorites without having to follow the link to the thread in the forum to do so.

[fel64]

But it’s cool that you got the fix out as soon as you found out.

[Kahil]

I got to thinking… being that it renames the image to their usernames, I thought that the following might work, but it doesn’t…

<img src=”http://yourkahil.com/forum/avatars/&lt;?php echo $strtolower($user->user_identity); ?>.jpg” alt=”avatar” />

Shouldn’t that work? I’m trying to get it to display the current username of the person visiting the site, provided they are logged in. If they aren’t logged in it shouldn’t display anything. Later I’d like to figure out how to do an if else statement so that if the visitor isn’t logged it, it will display a default image.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Do you have a (possibly hidden) .htaccess file in bbPress’ parent directory (one directory up from /bbpress)?

[quigley05]

the .htaccess file isnt in the main folder and i try to create it and my computer automatically hides it. here is what the contents are:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /bbpress/

bbPress 0.8.2.1: Security Release

0.8.2.1: Just look at all those periods!

This is bbPress 0.8.2 with a security fix included. Everyone should upgrade (if you’re upgrading from 0.8.2, you can take a shortcut if you’re comfortable doing so. See the above blog posts.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

do you mean that “after upgrading and changing the permalink structure of a forum; the old permalinks does not redirect to the new one” ?

No, I just meant that with the current code, if you’ve somehow managed to change the slug, you’ve broken the old links. But, as you point out, bbPress knows how to move “sideways” across different kinds of permalinks.

WordPress allows you to change the slug and automatically redirects your old links to the new slug; it’s more clever than bbPress is at the moment

[csl749]

Fantastic – thank you very much!

[drift82]

Thanks! I went ahead and put the two as different prefixes. Can you make sure the developers put a note about that in config.php!

[fel64]

Yes, it will. WordPress has (what is usually) wp_posts and bbPress has (ditto) bb_posts, with a different table structure, so there’d be issues.

What are the dis/advantages of putting tables in the same database, does anyone know?

[karaboga]

karaboga, permalinks should be permanent. Perhaps we can work on redirecting old permalinks to the new ones. Better yet, that’d be a great plugin

mdawaffe, do you mean that “after upgrading and changing the permalink structure of a forum; the old permalinks does not redirect to the new one” ? In this forum, for example we if write

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/100

it is redirected to the 100th topic with the new permalink structure.

Yes, permalinks should be permanent. But, in WordPress we can change the post slug, and then the permalink of the post is changed. Why cannot we do so in bbPress?

[sneakym]

Sorry fel but that piece of code isnt in there. This is what it looks like

‘<?php

function felblogtotopicid( $felpostID ) {

global $table_prefix, $wpdb;

$posts_table = $table_prefix . “bbpress_post_posts”;

$topic_id = $wpdb->get_var(“SELECT topic_id FROM $posts_table WHERE post_id = $felpostID LIMIT 1;”);

return $topic_id;

}

global $post, $wpdb;

if( $forumtopic = felblogtotopicid( $post->ID ) ) {

$bbprefix = get_option( ‘wpbb_bbprefix’ );

$replies = $wpdb->get_results( ‘

SELECT poster_id, post_text, post_time

FROM ‘ . $bbprefix . ‘posts

WHERE topic_id = ‘ . $forumtopic

);’

I think it has something to do with ‘$table_prefix, $wpdb;’ and ‘$posts_table = $table_prefix . “bbpress_post_posts”;’. My table prefix is not wpdb (where wpdb = database name) it is just wp. Plus that ‘.’ in there is throwing it off as well as the error reads:

[Table ‘databasename.posts’ doesn’t exist]

SELECT poster_id, post_text, post_time FROM posts WHERE topic_id = 6

“.posts” That ‘.’ is getting into the code and appending itself to the db name…

I think…

You are the master though….

[ganzua]

“But after what I’ve integrated both of api’s: the wordpress and bbpress; this resulted in the following error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class streamreader in /var/www/pm/forum/bb-includes/streams.php on line 26″

-> same error here

[drift82]

Before I break things, I wanted to know if I can use the same table prefix for both BBPress and WordPress? The reason I ask is because I have several sites in the same database and I’d like to pick a convention. Anyone know if this will cause any problems?

[peter-b]

Think our posts crossed! Solution implemented but thank you!

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

peter-b, there are a number of things that depend on the table prefix being non-empty.

The best solution would be to use a table prefix and rename all your tables.
