Bozzy, why not create a new thread for it!

Can you do it from a command line rather than a web interface to avoid the upload problem?

Can you upload the file and then do something like this on the command line:

mysql -u UserName -p DBName < TheFullTargetFilePath.SQL

-p will prompt for the password on the command line

I imagine there’s probably a -h if you need to specify a different host too.

0 queries executed is a normal result after an import. That doesn’t mean it failed (the message by itself doesn’t, I mean.)

[migpilot]

If it helps…. exact statement from MyphpAdmin on completeion is: “Import has been successfully finished, 0 queries executed.”

I want to add a link to my bbpress forum in my wordpress site. Preferably the link would sit along side the page links.

How can I do this? It seems that adding a page only allows you to add a page. Rather than a link to a page that already exists.

Hey fel64, I might get lynched if I drop off posts… quite a bit of great stuff there.

My import is up to around 30,000KiB, so that’s not the issue….

My SQL mojo man is AWOL, hence me coming here to look for some of the good SQL loving

[fel64]

I vaguely remember from setting up bb in localhost and trying to copy my server DB into my local MySQL that PHPMyAdmin wouldn’t take more than 16 Mb when importing. That might well be a setting that can be set somewhere, I don’t know; I can’t find it in its config file, in any case.

Edit: my localhost version of phpMyAdmin says “Max: 16,384KiB” by the import dialog.

To get around this if it is the problem, can you live without 1/3rd of the posts? Then you could delete them in the original database via some query and export the remaining 2/3rds. It might be better to hold out for someone with more database-mojo to come along and see if there’s a non-destructive way.

Hi all,

First time here but long time WP fan, hence moving my forum to bbPress.

Keeping it short, I have managed (after a LOT of work) to convert our phpbb DB over to bbPress with the aid of the converter from http://www.iteisa.com/ Be warned, I found that it did not convert correctly 100% and required a lot of manual adjustment to the rew sql file – easy if you have a small DB but our has 1500 members and some insane amount of posts and topics.

Anyhoo, I have managed to get just about everything into bbPress except for the posts. I have them converted and sitting in an SQL file (22Mb) but I can not get the file to load. Every other file has without issue except this. Our upload limit exceeds the file size and MyphpAdmin imports the file but does not actually bring in any data…. in other words, it spends 5 minutes uploading the SQL, tells me that it has successfuly imported the file but with 0 data.

Does anyone have any idea what’s going on? My members are itching to get going again and this is the only thing holding things up….. it’s a little odd having topics with no posts.

Help…anyone?

Created a TRAC for it and it is in your other thread!

[Trent Adams]

TRAC ticket created!

https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/645

Version 0.3 is now available for download from the plugin browser.

Version 0.3 is not compatible with previous versions, so you will have to go through your templates and make some changes to the template functions (check the Readme file).

New Features

* added an ‘Avatar’ tab to the profile menu

* added a ‘default avatar image’ option (if you don’t want to use fel64’s identicons — see previous posts in this thread).

* can access just the avatar’s URI for use in other plugins.

fel – how would you like me to link to the identicon’s plugin? Currently, I’m just linking to your post in this thread.

Oh and I have hacked together an Über-Avatar plugin which pulls together the various avatar plugins into one ‘api’. It iterates through some logic based on a specified order of preference (set by the admin), checking to see if the user has specified an avatar using each plugin.

For example:

Order to check: avatar-upload, bb-avatar. bb-myavatars, identicon

Has user uploaded an avatar?

— Yes: Invoke the ‘avatar-upload’ plugin template function and break.

— No… continue

Has the user specified an external URL?

— Yes, invoke ‘bb-myavatar’ template function and break.

— No… continue

Has the user got a Gravatar?

— Yes, invoke ‘bb-myavatars’ template functions and break.

— No… continue

Has the user got an identicon?

— Yes, invoke the same code as ‘avatar-upload’ and break.

— No. create an identicon and then invoke the ‘avatar-upload’ code.

It’s not perfect yet though, so no release.

Now you can download it also by bbpress svn or by extend link on bbpress.org header.

cheers

Ah – so ridiculously easy! I’m liking BBpress more and more .

I just requested code_trick to become pluggable too – hopefully that’ll happen, and soon, so I can just use a plugin and not hack at core files.

[gh3]

here you can find info about .htaccess: https://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks

Looking at previous post I find out these two:

i hope them could be useful

When i had a look at it, it redirected me on install page, but now it redirect me to the blank page.

It seems that someone using the link have installed it, but it seems no to work… because bbpress on install made a default post, that you can look at: http://nerdsgonewildmagazine.com/forum/topic.php?id=1

But it is blank too.

Btw i suggest you first of all to remove the bb_ data on mysql if you are not the man who made the install process.

Then dunno, it seems that it doesn’t process at all any php command.

Mhh do you know if your host is linux or win, and if it use php4 or 5?

ps. do you have any rewrite rule in .htaccess file?

[absolutezero]

I can’t seem to get anything other than a blank white page. I have bbPress installed into the subdirectory /forum/.

Any ideas?

Hi,

Does anyone know how I could add the wordpress logged in link to the bbpress logged in think depending on the user. So admins could be the only one to see the link to the wordpress backend?

Thanks,

Rich

[wmarcy]

Any chance you could show us the code for your admin stuff?

[wittmania]

Trent uses if (bb_current_user_can('administrate')) in his YouTube plugin. Couldn’t you mod the allow_images plugin to also allow <script> tags, but only if the user is an administrator? That would still allow the scripts to do their thing, but only in posts authored by an administrator.

Unfortunately, if you’re looking for a way to place ads in posts by any ol’ user, there’s not a safe way to do that b/c they could put ANY script in and have it execute.

Best bet? bb-Ads. Situations just like this are what I wrote it for. You can see it in action at blog.wittmania.com/bbpress

[fel64]

If you can’t edit the template and have something against the excellent bb-Ads plugin: I can’t help you, because AFAIK there’s no straightforward API function to check what a non-current user can do.

[fel64]

Thanks!

You can include ASCIIMathML.js in the header via plugin by this sort of code:

`function incMathJs() {

$url = bb_path_to_url( dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/ASCIIMathML.js’)

echo ‘<script type=”text/javascript” src=”‘ . $url . ‘”>’;

}

add_action( ‘bb_head’, ‘incMathJs’ );

Not sure when or how the JS kicks in, but perhaps that’s not necessary? Anyway, you could head over to trac and request that code_trick be made pluggable (so a plugin could overwrite it).

[dprice]

Get bbpress + mathML.

This is really just a quick knockup – perhaps MathML support would be best in plugin form? I really didn’t do all that much, but I’m not familiar with the BBpress plugin system at all so I’m not sure how easy (if possible), it would be.

Hi, this is my first post on bbPress, and it will deal with my new plugin.

First of all I have to say that it is based on the great work by Thomas Klaiber on Post Notify plugin.

But now let’s talk about Say My Name ( smn for friends ), this plugin will look at each post that will be posted for your nickname, and if it will find it, it will notify you by mail.

I made this plugin because many times i saw people calling someone inside a post, and due to the dimension of the forum, the huge amount of post per day, and going on… the people called doesn’t see it.

I have only to add that, as Thomas plugin, this one is activable by your profile, so if you have too common name like “and” “or” and going on, is better if you keep it off

So that’s all, i have only to add the download link: http://www.ellequadro.net/wp-content/plugins/downloads-manager/download.php?id=6

I hope that this plugin could be useful.
