List of filters; there’s probably 5 – 10 there involving RSS. One of them will let you check if a topic is hidden and if so remove it.

That would be a cool plugin. Add it when done.

Hey this is cool. But, what tags does one put in the bbpress template to get the avatar from Dan’s Avatar thing to show up? Or do I have to have the bbpress avatar upload plugin installed and add it via this?

[Vili]

I would personally just copy the bbPress CSS over to the WordPress one, so as to keep it all in one place. If you want to integrate the two, why then have more than one CSS file?

[fel64]

h2.postform is in /bb-templates/k2/style.css, line 194. It’s stretched like that because it by default takes up the whole width of the parent element, which is Secondary. It is more effective to set the width for Secondary than for the child elements, because the Secondary width will automatically control all the child elements too.

Firebug is an invaluable HTML, CSS and JS debugger.

[bozzy]

Almost there… one quick question, do you know which part of the stylesheet controls the ‘reply’ line?

It’s stretched across the whole page, unlike the rest…

I did round the corners. Do you not see them? Err, which corners are you talking about? I rounded all containers using gimp.

Memberlist is one of my plugins. It actually has the most updates https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/17?replies=4

Hey guys, remember me?

I got slammed last semester with classes, working full time, changing jobs, being newly married (and all the stuff that comes with that… if you’re married, I’m sure you know what I mean)… so I completely had to lay off playing with bbpress (hence, none of my plugins have been updated in a few months).

Well, once the semester was over and things settled down for a week, I decided to revamp my site. My site is a home for 6 blogs, forums, mail, etc… and it is all tied together via the front page. Once I got that looking good, I moved to the forums which I just made live today (which means I’m sure I’ll find more stuff that needs to be adjusted over the next week).

I revamped the whole nav system for the forums. It’s all done through a simple and small menu at the top. Of course, if you login you can see more icons. If you have an unread PM you are notified by the normal icon blinking.

This summer looks to be continually busy, especially at work, but I still hope to update some of my plugins soon. Sorry to those of you who have made requests that have gone unanswered.

my “seemless integration” is coming along quite nicely. but a have a question:

**obviously when I get my wp header from my bb frontpage.php, I also get the wp stylesheet. would it be better to put a check in the header to see if a bbpress page is being served and disable the wp css, as you mentioned? If so, should I then copy-paste the important stuff from the wp css into the bb css to make the layout uniform?

Thanks for the help.

Yes I understand now, and your observation makes very much sense. I’m just not much into the structure of bbpress. That’s why I wanted feedback

It would change the plugin, but triggering this substitution by the tags of a topic instead of the website’s content translates into: “make good topics not exclusively about your website AND choose good tags for what you’re posting and you’ll get links back”. Will work into that direction

[lipo]

Same Problems here, any news on this?

[fel64]

The #1 thing to do is to backup regularly. You can’t be 100% sure that you’re safe – but if you have a backup it’s not a particularly big deal. If you use WordPress use the backup plugin for that and include the bb tables too.

If someone else users your computer and you’re still logged in, then they have access to everything you have access to. You can’t do much damage through bbPress; deleting posts etc. isn’t permanent, for example. What you should be concerned about (if you reckon someone nasty is going to get to your computer at all) is your FTP, database and hosting admin access.

[klaussterz]

I believe you. I found a longer topic with the same problem. It seems to be very strange!

Thank you. Well, if it is save enough, then i should leave it as it is. I am just worried about the server because i am expecting a few dosen of members. My 1st website was overwritten once (aaaaahhh!…), therefore i am interested in all the measures against bad luck.

I wonder if there is some code in bbPress where i can change its cookie’s life duration? I think i came accross it somewhere in but cannot remember now where exactly.

Hello,

I am intergrating BB into WordPress and am hitting a wall.

When I attempt to go to step three of installation I meet the following text:

bbPress database error: [Column ‘post_text’ cannot be part of FULLTEXT index]

CREATE TABLE bb_posts ( post_id bigint(20) NOT NULL auto_increment, forum_id int(10) NOT NULL default ‘1’, topic_id bigint(20) NOT NULL default ‘1’, poster_id int(10) NOT NULL default ‘0’, post_text text NOT NULL, post_time datetime NOT NULL default ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00’, poster_ip varchar(15) NOT NULL default ”, post_status tinyint(1) NOT NULL default ‘0’, post_position bigint(20) NOT NULL default ‘0’, PRIMARY KEY (post_id), KEY topic_id (topic_id), KEY poster_id (poster_id), KEY post_time (post_time), FULLTEXT KEY post_text (post_text) ) TYPE = MYISAM

1. Created table bb_forums

2. Created table bb_posts

3. Created table bb_topics

INSERT INTO bb_posts (forum_id, topic_id, poster_id, post_text, post_time, poster_ip, post_status, post_position) VALUES (‘1’, ‘1’, ‘1’, ‘

First Post! w00t.

bbPress database error: [Table ‘louise.bb_posts’ doesn’t exist]

SELECT * FROM bb_posts WHERE post_id = 0

Finished!

I am doing everything to the letter and cannot see what I’m doing wrong…..

The only things I change to install is the directory titles from:

wordpress to ‘journal’

and

bbpress to ‘message_board’

Help would be greatly appreciated. As its driving me mental. All of this just so I can have people sign in to both wordpress and bbpress at the same time.

Thanks

You can hack your WYSIWYG plugin editor in fairly easy apparently but there’s no plugin released to do that to my knowledge. Quicktags does the job without all that annoying incredible slowness.

Great emoticon plugin, unfortunately not available through the plugin browser.

[Vili]

Hmm. I took a look at the “Connections” theme by Vanilla Mist, and it seems that the header file in that theme is not used for actual header information, but only for the header DIV. This will make your life somewhat more difficult if you want to integrate your bbPress seemlessly in the manner that I described above.

[metalvalley]

I’d like to see a smilie plugin like wp-grins for wordpress!

[fel64]

Plugins for bbPress have to go in /your-bbpress-folder/my-plugins. They will not work in any other place. If the my-plugins folder does not yet exist, you have to create it.

[fel64]

I don’t know about “feature”, but all it means is that it sets a cookie that isn’t cleared until a week from when you log in. Unless you log out, that cookie remains. In WordPress, you can untick the “Remember Me” thing; I don’t know if bbPress can (yet) be configured to not remember you like that.

If you’re worried, just log out when you’re done.

[neziniux]

I did it again (restarting the pc) and now i see that this forum does the same thing – i did not need to log in to post this message. Ok, i will accept this as a normal bbPress feature, am i right?

[wittmania]

Fel, great work as usual. I just implemented your original hack (with a few minor mods of my own) on the team blog I just started last week. It is my first attempt at a bbpress-as-comments install, and it is working very well so far. This hack adds the extra comment visibility I was missing.

Keep up the good work.

[neziniux]

Hello there, you masters of bbPress!

I am very new to this software, so please have patience with me. I installed it some days ago and noticed a strange thing – whenever I restart the pc the next day – I am automatically logged on. It is very practical but since I am paranoid about security, it does not contribute to peace of mind. It does not matter if this is a Firefox2 or IE7 browser, I noticed the symptom on both.

Has it something to do with session cookies on my system? I don’t have this issue with 2 of my WPs nor any other website. My bbPress and wp are separate bodies, not integrated.

I find bbPress very cute and I hope I can make it work somehow with your help.

[startribe]

Any word on a simple WYSIWYG plugin or feature for bbPress. Something similar to what is on WordPress support forums would be awesome.

[fel64]

Rather than filling up pages of this forum, it would be nice if you could use something like pastebin.

That’s not your only stylesheet. Style declarations for your forum are also made in http://www.bozzysworld.com/wp-content/themes/k2, which is where you need to make the changes to .secondary and so on. Since you have several different stylesheets referenced they may be conflicting. Changing that stylesheet may have knock-on effects on your main site’s theme. Are you using your wordpress header? It may be easier to recreate your header for bbPress but with seperate stylesheets, so that modifications for your forums will not affect your front page.
