Hi All,

When I go to “bbpress dashboard > Content > Akismet Spam” I’m told “The API key you have specified is invalid. Please double check the $bb->akismet_key variable in your config.php file. If you don’t have an API key yet, you can get one at WordPress.com.”

Which I’ve checked and double-checked. I’m positive I’m putting the same string in that I see when I login to http://wordpress.com/profile/

When I check my wordpress blog, running on a different host and different domain from bbpress, the same key is there and wp reports the akismet plugin is working.

Another post from 6 months ago said replacing single quotes with double quotes in config.php fixed the problem for them. Doesn’t work for me though. http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/146?replies=4

I’m running bbpress 0.8.1 on Sourceforge.net.

Any ideas what’s wrong?

thanks!

I love BBpress. I have tried to compile the top 10 must have plugin for bbpress. Hope it will be useful.

This is what the config file looks like:

<?php

// ** MySQL settings ** //

define(‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘turner_wrdp3’); // The name of the database

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

define(‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘*****************’); // …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!

// If your bbPress URL is http://bbpress.example.com/forums/ , the examples would be correct.

// Adjust the domain and path to suit your actual URL.

// Just the domain name; no directories or path. There should be no trailing slash here.

$bb->domain = ‘http://forums.ppacp.org’; // Example: ‘http://bbpress.example.com’

// There should be both a leading and trailing slash here. ‘/’ is fine if the site is in root.

$bb->path = ‘/’; // Example: ‘/forums/’

// What are you going to call me?

$bb->name = ‘Professional Photographers Againsts Copying Photographs’;

// This must be set before running the install script.

$bb->admin_email = ‘*********@ppacp.org’;

// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.

$bb->mod_rewrite = false;

// 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 = -4;

// 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 = ‘*************’; // Example: ‘0123456789ab’

// 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 = ‘http://ppacp.org’; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash. Example: ‘http://example.com’

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://ppacp.org’; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash. Example: ‘http://example.com’

/* Stop editing */

if ( !defined(‘BBPATH’) )

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

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

?>

[davidbaldiwn]

Are you supposed to install bbPress with the same or different Database information as WordPress?

I want to integrate the two, so I used the same database information as wordpress.

When I try to run the install, I get this error:

“Fatal error: Call to undefined function: bb_install_header() in /home/turner/public_html/forums/bb-admin/install.php on line 11”

Any ideas?

When the post is created, the tags are split on spaces, so foo and bar would have been created as separate tags. When you add tags to an existing topic, you can use spaces and enter tags one at a time. So you would enter foo and get a foo tag, and then bar and get a bar tag. My guess is that ‘foo bar’ was entered as a tag on an existing topic, and that’s how it stayed. If they were expecting the tag to be split on the space (like a new topic handles the tags) they would be surprised maybe to learn it works differently with existing topics.

Maybe?

Hi there,

where can I find an italian translation of BBpress?

[Arlo]

For some reason, when users enter multiple tags in their posts at my bbpress site, they are becoming a SINGLE tag. Is there a way to fix this? Here’s a sample post:

http://automatorworld.com/forum/topic/correcting-exif-data

“foo bar” was entered in the tag field, but appears as a single tag.

I just downloaded this plugin and used with the current version 0.8.1 and it seems to work for me. At first I was marked with 1 but after using this plugin and saving myself as 0 and creating some test accounts no new accounts seem to be marked as “1” anymore. So, It seems to have work for me. Thanks for releasing this.

[anaon]

Oh thank you very much for your help. I followed your advices and then, I saw that I had a very old version of BBpress!

So it works great now as you can see: http://www.spleenarcana.com/forum/

Thanks again!

[Vili]

Hmm. Actually, the code that I copy-pasted from the above seems to be different from what I have on my hard drive. At least a number of “<p>” tags appear to be missing.

[Vili]

There’s something odd there, as the code is 193 lines long, i.e. the line 193 includes only “?>”.

Anyway, I’ll send you the code in a sec by email.

[Vili]

Ah. Yes, I use “require_once(‘path/to/wp-blog-header.php’);” in my bbPress config.php.

[fel64]

I don’t know. I doubt it, because bbdb (the object used to do any database stuff) is hardcoded all over the place and you need a new bbdb object for every database you connect to, as far as I’m aware. So integration – which consists of sharing the users and usermeta table I think – would be impossible, unless you changed all references to the user tables to use your second bbdb object.

Why do you want to?

[djuggler]

Has anyone tried to do a WordPress / BBPress integration using 2 separate databases?

Is it possible? Any caveats?

[fredvee]

Is there a relatively easy “bbpress way” to add a radio button instead of a text field?

[deva8]

hello everyone

the bbpress is great and simple i love it thanks for developing it.

i installed and it works well.

i wanted to have an option in admin like i create 3 or 4 user as moderator or administrators and only those peoples have rights to answer the forum questions all other new users can register just to ask questions but they cannot post the answers.

is it possible any how ?

sorry for my english

[fel64]

How does this crazy devlist thing work? Signed up but got no emails, so I assume no-one’s talking. I send an email to bbdev@lists.bbpress.org? I don’t want to completely break etiquette or somesuch first time, so I thought I’d wait and see but there isn’t that much to see.

The TRAC version already uses jQuery.

[fel64]

Yup. I think it is, I heard about it in the context of bb a while back. No news, no secrets, although there seems to be some code for view management in the bb-includes which may mean that a proper views system will be introduced (… sometime).

[c00l2sv]

WordPress 2.2 is out.

The team worked hard so they finally moved to jQuery wich I think is one of the major feature in 2.2 version. I wonder if bbPress will follow his cousin? By the way, is there any news about bbPress… Any secrets revealing?

[atomastro]

Vili, sorry for the confusion caused, what I am asking is how you are including the headers. You cannot use WordPress functions without WordPress running. Some where along the line you are including something that loads the WordPress system. Are you using the wp-blog-header.php in the bbPress config.php method from https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/ or something different?

[fel64]

Why don’t you open the file, go to line 193, and systematically take out one $ at a time until it works?

[dyaddydad]

WordPress. I have deleted Dan’s. When I try to activate it or on every single page when it is activated. Can you e-mail me the code so that I have the exact version or post it in the plugins bit. Awgandrews ATHIS gmail.com .

Same again through:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /homepages/27/d120217802/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/cmdavatar.php on line 193

I haven’t intergrated it with bbpress yet, but since I can’t get it to activate, this doesn’t seem to be the problem.

Thanks!

[sulcalibur]

Thank you!

First time I’m using BBpress but I’m REALLY fond of WordPress so I hope that this can be a good relationship with the too.
