Its easy to install really. You have the main tinymce folder which I opened and uploaded the contents to the ‘my-plugins’ folder. This is the mistake I made.
- Just upload the jscript folder within the tinymce folder to my-plugins
- Edit header.php in your bbpress template, adding the reference to the javascript
This is part of the code which I copied, which you put before the </head> closing tag in header.php.
<script language=”javascript” type=”text/javascript” src=”http://example.com/bbpress/my-plugins/jscripts/tiny_mce/tiny_mce.js”></script>
Change to:
<script language=”javascript” type=”text/javascript” src=”my-plugins/jscripts/tiny_mce/tiny_mce.js”></script>
The FULL code you put in header php is the top of the page, but this bit is important.
I have my forum integrated with wordpress, and all was working fine in both firefox and IE until i turned permalinks on in wordpress only. I emphasize, wordpress only, i’m not using pretty urls in bbpress.
This is where the odd behaviour starts. My blog works perfectly, permalinks work fine, and my forum works fine in firefox. However, when using permalinks in wordpress, i get “page cannot be found” error in IE7 when trying to browse the forum.
I’m totally stumped. My server supports permalinks, it works perfectly in firefox, wordpress works in IE7, and bbpress works in IE7 with permalinks off in wordpress. But with them turned on… page not found. What the hell?
so, I looked in the bb-templates/kakumei/post-form.php file and it is completely blank???
is this correct or should there be an edit form in this file?? This is the default theme included in the bbpress installation and i havent edited the file at all
I posted earlier in this thread: http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/787
but i see it is marked as [Resolved] so people probably arent reading it.
I just freshly installed bbPress and after the install and setup I am unable to add a new topic or reply to existing topics. There is no link to add new topics/reply/etc…
The prior thread said it could be due to mod_rewrite, so I deleted my .htaccess file and turned mod_rewrite off in my config file and it still isnt working.
Any ideas? The link for the forum is http://www.mmahq.com/forums/
Ahh, that’ll teach me to remember the difference between get_bbpress_thing() and bbpress_thing(). >_< Sorry.
Replace the code in there now with this.
Set the last parameter to true if you want it to return an array of information. To use this you would use code like this:
<?php $mytopicnavarray = feltopicnav( '', '', ' ', true, true );
echo '<a href="' . $mytopicnavarray['next']['link'] . '">Click here to go to the next topic!</a>'; ?>
Use <?php felforumnav(); ?> to get the forum navigation in a similar way to the topic navigation. It’s just a simple wrapper for what feltopicnav does, but it’s a bit easier to see what it’s supposed to do. Check the code for possible parameters.
I won’t submit this as a proper plugin because the code is awkward. Maybe sometime I’ll recode it or someone else will. 
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Topic Navs;
Plugin URI:
Description: Put <?php feltopicnav(); ?> in a topic template to show links to the previous and next topics, and put in <?php felforumnav(); ?> to get basic next/previous forum navigation. More parameters such as $infoonly available.

How did you make it work?
Since my last post (panic?) I realised my mistake. It works OK now. Problem is the ‘guy who knows more than me’ is beginning to worry me now hmmm.
Tried adding the TinyMCE to bbpress and it didn’t work. Asked a guy who knows more about this than I do, and he couldn’t get it to work either. Browsing for an answer, its suggested
- a javascript conflict with a plugin
- , or template.
I’m using the latest version of WordPress in case there is a conflict there. (Windows hosting)
I am currently collecting themes and plugins and providing links at http://www.mybbpress.com. There isn’t a ton of selection out there right now, but I’ll be adding as they become available.
It’s GPL, but there is no indication of that anywhere here officially. There is a ticket to address this issue. https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/642
Mine is at http://akirakurosawa.info/forums/ . I’ve done a little bit here and there, although more behind the scenes than with the theme.
The installation is integrated with the rest of the site, which runs on WordPress. So much so, in fact, that I even ended up modifying a WordPress Avatar plugin so that I can use the same plugin for both WordPress and bbPress. (Although I don’t actually use it for the WordPress side at the moment.)
The bbPress installation itself has the following plugins:
– Allow images
– Comment quicktags (with some modifications)
– Display name (with some modifications)
– Fix bbPress
– Quote
– WordPress Integration
I’m adding things little by little as the users request new features.
hey, i found this link: http://timjoh.com/list-of-bbpress-template-functions/ yesterday – which has a list of all the template functions (up to 0.8.1).
i was going to use that as a reference until bbpulp had more info –
but now i see that the wiki has already begun to fill out..
i guess i’m still a little confused by all the terminology, perhaps someone could help me by distiguishing between the following terms:
– template functions
– pluggable functions
– plugin functions
– filters (defined earlier)
– hooks / actions (defined earlier)
maybe all this could be included on the wiki too?
anyway, the list of template functions might help since i see that no link has been created yet for it under the heading: “Theming documentation” on bbpulp.
fel64, thanks 
I will try the post plugin
Thanks. Yeah I hear where you’re coming from, TinyMCE slows my site down a bit and im having trouble with blockquotes, but you can slim it down and make it tiny, so i’ll stick with it for now… ive already started copying over all my emotions into it
Like fckEditor…
But to be honest, these scripts are too big for bbPress. bbPress only supports a blockquote br code em strong ul ol li and not colors, images, tables, font types etc.
I am thinking of writing a wysiwyg editor that only supports these standard markups and when an extention/plugin is installed (smilies, images) it will support these too. And it will be skinable ofcourse to match the theme installed.
But I am a busy man, so this will not happen anytime soon
@ box87, can you give me/sent me what you have changed and where? This error also seems to effect people that use php 5+, so if your changes fixes these errors, I realy would like to have them
(mauricederegt[at]gmail.com)
About adding menutabs (not pages); it will be in the next release. You can create new tabs in the admin area and drag&drop them around. Only downside is that the tabs won’t be highlighted when you are on the page where the new tab points too. This has to do with the bb_location and knowing-on-what-page-you-are issue (is_pagename) .
It already is possible to automaticly add a menu tab to your list when activating a plugin that has a page on its own (like the memberlist plugin). But I need to do some more testing for this and documentation of how to do this will proberly be released when bbPress 1.0 (with plugin activation) is released (cause the way this works can be changed)…
Also I am thinking of rewriting this plugin after the bbPress 1.0 release to use jQuery. 1.0 uses this libary, so why not make use of this and reduce the extra files needed to drag&drop the tabs around 
Well for now, send me your fix so I can put it in the next release. Big things are ahead!
hey cool.
i was just looking for something like this and you just created it minutes ago!
i guess i’m too early.. not much there yet obviously.
in the meantime, anyone out there know the filter/action that would allow me to disable the bbpress registration page entirely ( ie: registration.php ) ?
i’d love to do this via a plugin rather that hack the core bbpress files or delete/move the file altogether.
it would be like a “registration is temporarily disabled” plugin.
optionally, to be able to change the appearance/text on the registration page would be my next challenge. but one thing at a time.
by the way, good work everyone!
How to do it? Write a MySQL query that transfers the info.
Otherwise you could use the bb Post plugin, edit the relevant posts so they get created as threads, and then delete them in WP.
Hello all,
When I installed bbpress intially, everything worked fine. After about a month of use though, the email message is not being sent during registration. I assume this might be due to a change with my host (dreamhost) but I don’t have any idea where to start looking for the problem.
I also have many wordpress blogs installed across dreamhost and have experienced no such problem on any of them.
Can someone please point me in a direction (to test) that might lead to a solution?
Thanks
Ryan
Null,
Poo poo on TinyMCE but dont offer any other solutions, why don’t you. How about some links to the other better ones?
Any ideas on this from anyone?
Hi, Felix.
I also got Redirect Loop error. bbPress keeps redirecting me to the same tag page as it compares decoded actual uri string and non-decoded should-be string.
$bb->debug = 1 will show the actual- and should-be- request URLs for the tag page, instead of redirecting former to the latter.
This trouble is issued as a difect at https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/585 , which I may have mixed up.
Nice, love the design, shame bbpress.nl is already taken
I´m happy to announce the launch of the german community “bbPress Deutschland“.
Let`s spread bbPress!
