I would like to stop using Akismet in bbPress only and keep it running for my WordPress blog. The reason is only registered authors of the blog can access bbPress and hence there is no need to check spam from them. What Akismet ends up doing is blocking sometimes authors’ messages in bbPress.

Is there a simple way to do this without upsetting Akismet in my WordPress blog?

This is a WordPress plugin. It will not work as a plugin in bbPress. WordPress and bbPress must be integrated.

bbSync will integrate WordPress and bbPress pretty thoroughly. Any posts made on the blog will create a new topic on the forums (this supports slugs and anything else that will come). Any replies made to the topic in the forums can be shown under the WP post with <?php felbbreplies(); ?>, and it will show people’s avatars if you use Louisedade’s avatar upload plugin.

You can migrate the old synchronisation from bbPress Post and delete the unnecessary tables (this plugin keeps its data in topicmeta, with the key wp_posts).

Hoping to add stuff later, either when I want it myself or when other people want it. I want feedback if you have it! I eat my own dog food and I’m finding it delicious. Will upload as official plugin when I get access.

bbPress Post and this plugin should not be running at the same time, otherwise you’ll get duplicate topics when you blog. If you get some error about a call to member function of a non-object, there’s a good chance adding this in the middle of your bbPress’ config.php file will help:

global $bbdb;

This plugin does need configuring to do anything useful. Head to Options > bbSync and fill things in please.

I’m trying to find a solution for this same issue and I know that it can be done because it has be done before here;

http://www.babyquestions101.com/signup/

unfortunately I don’t know exactly how. I guess all wordpress login links has been removed and replaced for bbpress login. The problem is that you lose access to wp control panel and that you are depending completely on the bbpress installation.

I wish we could integrate;

login

profile

avatars

ranks

message counts

signatures

forms toolbars

emoticons

…

I presume there isn’t any project to build a bridge like this, is there any?

Hola Covi!

Gracias por responder. Una solución que tengo en mente para arreglar lo de la traducción es traduccir archivo por archivo a mano. Esto lo hice en el wordpress, en el que actualmente no estoy usando .mo de traducción (el error de streams.php que comenté lo tengo sin que el wordpress esté usando lenguajes).

Sin embargo preferiria poder usar un .mo de lenguajes para ambos y no se como

Respecto a tu arreglo de las fechas lo he puesto en el template-functions.php y funciona salvo por el nombre de los meses que quedan sin traducir. Aun no me he puesto a indagar donde hay que traducirlos.

Respecto a la integración wp-bb ojalá hubiese un foro específico porque todavía no se que voy a hacer con muchas cosas. Por ejemplo, con el profile y el login, me gustaría usar solo uno, integrado en el template y desde la barra de navegación. Me gustaría poner la misma barra de utilidades en los formularios de wp y bb, ahora tengo un plugin para wordpress, el tinymcecomements y otro distinto para el bb, el quicktags. Me gustaria poner avatares integrados, cuenta de mensajes integrados y rangos tipo phpbb integrados. En fin, integrar un montón de cosas que parece que no se tuvieron encuenta al hacer la integración bb-wp.

Y respecto al bbpress parece que está muy en pañales, la verdad es que estoy intentando ponerlo porque es el único foro medio decente que se pueda integrar con wordpress, pero parece que siguen la misma política que con el wordpress; un foro pelado y plugins para todo si es que alguien los hace. Yo creo que cosas como emoticonos, barra de utilidades en los formularios, avatares… deberían venir ya puestas.

[fel64]

A1: Yup.

A2: Not sure.

Q1: Why don’t you try keeping bb at example.com/forum instead of in a wpmu subfolder?

Q2: Do you need to include WP, anyway?

[cakeman]

Ok I know, another question about integration.

I trying to intergrate Mu wordpress and bbpress and here is the thing:

I have installed wordpress in to a folder like:

mydomain.com/wordpress

and I also installd bbpress in to a folder like

mydomain.ocm/wordpress/forum

I have also altered in bbpress config.php

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

Now when i try to access mydomain.com/wordpress/forum

Wordpress wants to create a new account for the blogg and I think this is because I dont use subdomain for new blogs.

Q1: Is it possible to intergrate bbpress with Mu wordpress?

Q2: Do I have to use subdomains to get this to work or is it possible not to use subdomains. If so, how?

I have to change webhotel to try subdomains so I rather wait until some of you tell me if it will work or not!

If i dont try to integrate the functions with the

require_once(‘../wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’); line in bbpress config.php everthing works just fine… I can use the same username and the intergration works really good untill I add the wp-blog-header.php line.

[Covi]

Ganzua, la cuestión es más o menos esa, al activar la integración con WordPress se incluyen archivos idénticos tanto desde WordPress como BBpress. A mí me ocurre con el primer archivo que se incluye streams.php y a tí con otra función también “redeclarada”, en este caso clase: CachedFileReader.

Esto ocurre porque son archivos necesarios para la traducción, si alguien no traduce el sitio: “BBLANG sin definir, es_EN por defecto” imagino que no se usan.

Tal y como funciona el asunto, la solución inminente sin indagar algo más en el tema es no incluir estos archivos desde alguo de los sistemas, yo prefiero quitarlo de bbpress.

Cómo solucionar la traducción??…

No caigo ahora mismo ^^! , si no incluimos esos archivos desde bbpress me temo que no traduce la aplicación a no ser que… podamos meter el archivo de traducción a mano.

En definitiva, personalmente y hasta la fecha las funciones de WP solo las quería para los templates así que me basta con “alargar” las rutas a los archivos necesarios.

Para las funciones genéricas bbpress usa practicamente las mismas funciones.

Para integración de usuarios no es necesaria: son los mismos.

Para integración de post, etc… se tendrían que hacer a mano y puesto que es la misma DB no es gran cosa

Además, el config.php es bastante flexible a la hora de crear variables

…pedazo tocho

Exactly, this is scheduled for the next release and is working in the latest TRAC version. Be warned prior to downloading, that it is a developmental version of bbPress and may not work 100%. I run it on my site, but I am comfortable working with errors! It is better to ask yourself that question prior to testing out the TRAC version.

[Trent Adams]

Very nice! Proforumed!

[fel64]

Jnewing, it is possible to give forums subforums in the latest development version. Grab a copy of 1.0-alpha off trac or wait for release.

[jnewing1]

Have a look and let me know I really tried to get it seamlessly integrated into the site.

Also just set up http://singleinclonmel.com a dating site, god bbpress is so amazing.

[Covi]

Doesn’t work on my site :___( :

Can’t show on Panel Presentation, doesn’t work with

Theme Name: Refresh

Theme Name: refresh the path of template.

I’m trying it…

PD: Some plugin is required?

After 1 minute …

Checking permissions of path…

LoL, soooorry ^^!

Ok, this version fixes the issue with spaces in the profiles… it’s mostly a hack, but I haven’t found any issues with it.

I created a plugin that allows usernames with spaces… not in the most elegant way, but it seems to work for me.

Hehe, hi fel64. Thanks for your reply!

I just put an underscore at the end of the folder name and it worked.

Yes, there wasn’t any change before concerning my language problem. I tried to switch to the spanish language file but it doesn’t get recognized by bbpress, too. No change.

[jetson]

Dear community,

today my bbpress just changed its language to english and it seems like it doesn’t care about the german language file. I haven’t changed the configuration file or something else on the server. Renaming the language file didn’t show any results. Yesterday bbPress didn’t accept my template-folder, so that I had to change its name and then it worked.

You can see, there are many strange things happening on my installation. I talked to my server host and he said everything is alright.

I’m using bbPress 1.0 alpha, but even the stable version, which I installed on the same database, shows the same problem.

Does anybody have an idea? Is there any database entry which contents the language settings?

Thanks,

jetson

[ganzua]

Thanks fel64!

I won’t give up bbpress by now

Regarding Quicktags, can you use it for wordpress as well? I’d like to display the same forms in both, wordpress and bbpress.

[fel64]

Not as far as I know. The worst is behind you, and if you’ll be administrating the site in the future then it’s a good idea for you to do this yourself anyway. Cursing about implementing it now will save you a lot of cursing in the future when something breaks, because you’ll roughly know where things are and how they work. Everything you’ve mentioned there has been done, though, or has a plugin for it. Plus we’re willing to help.

I recommend Quicktags over tiny mce, but it’s a personal thing really.

[Trent Adams]

It is more ‘keeping in the loop’ and your can set it up to ‘digest’ so you don’t get as many emails. It is just nice to know where things are going if you are interested!

Hi Trent! Thanks for your message;

Dou you mean this list? -> https://lists.bbpress.org/mailman/listinfo/bbdev

I am not a developer anywhere, just a bb/wordpress theme clumsy modifier, not sure if I should join.

[ganzua]

I integrated wordpress and bbpress; I succeded in displaying wordpress header, footer and sidebar in bbpress, and user logins are integrated which is great

However, each bbpress modification is being a big step for me and I’m finding quite difficult to add things like emoticons beside post-forms, tiny mce in forms, avatars, ranks, quote buttons…

Is there any theme with this kind of stuff already implemented?

[Trent Adams]

Right now, development on bbPress is for a standalone version of bbPress that can be expanded with plugins. There have already been many discussions in the bbdevlist about integration with wordpress. Mdawaffe (head developer) started out with a couple of plugins to integrate the logins of the 2 programs and anything else that is developed to integrate the 2 programs are also going to be plugins.

Answering your question about the functions, the framework is there to have the 2 integrated, but no plans of yet to release a joint copy. Believe it or not, most people that use bbPress (200,000 or so) do not integrate with wordpress. It is a functionality that is growing in popularity though.

You have some good points on the subject, but I would imagine that if bbPress is released as something that works out of the box with WordPress, it will happen through plugins or through someone ‘forking’ bbPress development towards the integrated solution.

I am not a developer here, so I these are just my opinions and things that I have read. I think that you should join the bbdevlist and put your opinions in! The developers read that more than these forums! Here is the link to join if you haven’t already!

Feedback for bbpress developers;

Regarding wordpress-bbpress integration, don’t you think wordpress and bbpress projects are starting to overlap?

I’ve been trying to integrate wordpress and bbpress and now I have;

* two login forms and profiles

* there are some css properties in the style sheet that are defined with same names that in wordpress; h2, h3, .alt …

* Afer adding <?php require_once(‘/wamp/www/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’); ?> for integration, I load wordpress functions again if accessed the web through wordpress frontpage.

* Some times I’d like to use the same plugins in both; wordpress and bbpress, or any other feature/modification, so I need to duplicate the work. You activate a wordpress plugin and you have to find a similar plugin that could work in bbpress or any workaround.

I wonder if developers are considering a bbpress version as a plugin for wordpress

imho
