I also think people should realize that bbPress isn’t dsigned to be a plugin for WP in any way and the developers should keep in mind to not develop too much towards this too.

It’s a standalone forum, fast and light and should stay this way

[archasek]

in wordpress ofcourse yes. in bbpress there is not polish lang file (as i know).

yes i have plugin and js in my-plugins folder. tomorrow i’ll check it in my default.

in my wordpress, in adminpanel i also don’t have quicktags panel in visual mode in my adding post site. may it has something in common with bbpress plugin?

[Trent Adams]

No Maintenance Mode for bbPress. Could be a pretty simple plugin to write though. Any takers?

I know that you are frustrated cool2sv because WP and bbPress both use different AJAX, but it really only matters when you are doing what you are trying to do with running them both at the same time. Most users won’t be affected by this same problem you are having.

I am not saying what the developers of bbPress has done is 100% the right direction with AJAX in the core, but it was designed to be standalone and work that way. The WP integration was with logins and not developed to have them sharing libs. I have passed this on to mdawaffe, but the redesign of bbPress and its use of AJAX in the core most likely won’t be the #1 priority. WP uses AJAX in the core and so does bbPress. So which one should be blame? Automattic developers like AJAX in the core!

**Edit** As well, you could sent your request into the bbDevList as well. Just head over to the about page for the address!

I answered your other thread about this. There seems to be packages out there that automatically install all 3 components for you and to be quick (detailed explanation over other thread), no, bbPress and WP will never be a single install unless someone 3rd party does it (say a web host).

If you have a local computer with windows or a Mac, you can always have the install of WAMP or an install that is similar. Do a search for apache, php and mySQL local windows install in google and you will find that there are many packages out there that can run them on your local computer instead of IIS. Packages like WAMP have all the packages together and a walkthrough on getting them all installed.

As for bbPress and WordPress installation together, I am involved with WP as well and can for sure tell you that they will never be packaged together for a single install unless someone makes their own release of the 2 packages together, but will not happen from Automattic because they are run completely seperate.

Does that help?

I’ve encountered with this error very recently, it didn’t happened before.

When a reply is posted (So far, by me the Key Master) the Topic closed message appears with no reason.

I have these plugins installed:

allow-images

bb-avatar

bb-memberlist

bb-post-count

bbpress_bbcode

fix-bbpress

forum-restriction

front-page-topics

[fel64]

There’s an easier way to do this, just put in the right domain.

//cookies

define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.2diabolos.com');

Or

//cookies

define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'forum.2diabolos.com');

If you go with the first, in my opinion neater version, you also need to add this to bbPress’ config.php.

//try to sync cookies

$bb->cookiedomain = '.2diabolos.com';

$bb->cookiepath = '/';

Then clear your cookies, log out and in and see if it works across your site.

Have I missed something, or is there no Maintenance Mode for bbPress?

[c00l2sv]

I hope development team had a look on this thread:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/867

and on this:

http://forum.mootools.net/viewtopic.php?id=2337

Why?! Cause i’m not sure bbpress made the right choise on integrating javascript in the core of bbs! It is really hard to develop new templates especially to port some templates that use different ajax libs!

[djeloso]

I am in no way even considering using something like phpbb. I’ve had too many bad experiences with it.

What I am using my forum for (still looking to switch from Vanilla to BBPress possibly) is a support forum for a web design company. Each client has a specific category. Either, they are new clients that we are showing designs to or they are existing clients who sometimes have tech support questoins that require screen shots to be attached, or they want to upload pdfs, docs, fonts, etc to be used on the maintenance of thier site.

I’d love to see an attachments feature. It would help my decision of moving to this software.

Version 0.1 of BB-Ads is now available.

Necessity is the mother of all invention.

[thierryyyyyyy]

I made a plugin that allows you to change wordpress cookie path&domain (and even cookieHash) to suit the need of bbPress.

My configuration was not “simple” :

wordPress : http://www.2diabolos.com/blog

bbPress : forum.2diabolos.com

everything is explained here.

http://www.2diabolos.com/blog/2007/04/06/nouveau-plugin-setcookieparams/

BUT I have a problem :

on my local server (for tests), I tried my plugin.

it works … for bbPress front-page and admin page, but not for topics and other “deeper” pages.

I put “cookie domain == false” (because cookie must not have domain when you are a “local server”, that what I understood from the standard)

I don’t understand why the frontpage appears nicely, and why, when I try to go into a topic, Firefox tells me that the server redirects the request in way that can’t go nowhere. And IE does not achieve anything (I prefer Firefox, it better for debugging…)

Firefox tells it can be a problem with cookie acceptance or desactivation.

I feel that bbPress is making a round (infinite) redirection ….

[fel64]

No idea. I doubt they’d announce features before they’re ready – that’s a fairly stupid strategy for software. Check out trac if you want to see what’s being worked on and download the latest SVN releases if you want it early (and potentially buggy).

[fel64]

This sounds like a bozo problem. Go to your Profile page, click on Edit, and look at the value of the bozo field. If this value is “1”, you require a minor fix: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/822?replies=10

[kernow]

What kind of features will bbpress have say in a year’s time? Considering it does not want to go down the path of a ‘bloated forum’, are there any useful features which will become standard in a future release?

[djeloso]

I would love this feature. Basically, we’re a small web design company that does a lot of communication between our design team and the client, as well as our technical support team and the client.

Right now, we’re using a different forum setup to function well, but not as well as we would like. THIS idea would be AWESOME for what we need.

Especially since we’re working with a lot of other smaller companies who can barely find their website using AOL let alone get used to a forum setup for their communication. If we could set it up so that they could read posts sent to their email and then respond to them via that email, it would make things a lot easier for them to get right into it.

Plus, all of the communication would also be stored in the one location (the forum) for us to access.

There is definite interest for this type of function, and I’d push for us to move from what we are using to bbpress if this was introduced.

[archasek]

i’m not sure that you understood what i mean. i mean i want a buttons , , [img]etc like on wp bbpress.

[Maido]

I just recently installed bbpress integrating it into my wordpress website, and I noticed that, being the key master, I never appear as Last poster in a topic I just added a message too, nor my posts are counted in the totals of the main forums summary page.

Is this intended? And if so, any way to change this behaviour?

Thanks all :>

[Trent Adams]

If they are marked as a bozo in bbpress it is a 1 for sure. It will not affect the WPMU at all because it doesn’t look for the bozo info at all in the meta table. Should be fine!

We are setup as a support site, with lots of help from Trent, we have our template tweaked to just how we want it.

Plugins used:

Support Forums

Admin Add User

Quicktags-4-bbpress

bb-memberlist

onlinelist (Slightly modified)

its a good idea to have an idea forum (duh!). but i think its a little premature. bbpress is still in its infancy – actually i should says its still a fetus.

once we have a major release and a stable community, that would be the next logical step.

I might as well start off the topics in the new forum for “Pimp My Press” with my forum, http://onvertigo.com

I am using a custom theme that I am also using for my main WP site at http://trentadams.ca and it really the second major theme that I have used on it! The site used to be really large with friends and family and after changing servers and no ‘easy’ way to import in the entries, I just started over until we can get a bbPress to bbPress import/export function (*crosses fingers*).

I use the following plugins:

Admin Add User

Allow Images

Allow YouTube (embedding)

My Avatars

Memberlist

Mobile bbPress

Post Count

Private Messeges

QuickTags Comments

Custom Profile

User Timezones

I am setting up another install for testing of all plugins, so stay tuned!

Cheers,

Trent
