Very sexy theme! I love K2, I love bbPress, and now I love this theme!

For that added *thang* you could try and inject some FamFamFam, just as K2 has, and they would look like twins.

Nice clean theme

– Make “login” button same height as text-boxes

– Change link colours in footer, cannot read the “BBPRESS” link for example.

– I like the blue RSS logo on the right sidebar, but it seems cut off on top and bottom?

Overall, I like it!

Trent, I’m not sure I understand your response. I think what you’re saying is that if bbpress stores the information for the user’s profile in wp_users, as does wordpress, then we’re ok. However, if bbpress stores the information in a different place, then the update won’t work.

Well, that led me on a little journey to see how wordpress stored the information in the extra fields such as first name, last name, im username, etc. I found it is stored in wp_usermeta, and I’m guessing bbpress doesn’t have anything to do with this. So, I’ll look into this further.

In the meantime, does any moderator/contributor have any other ideas as to how this can be achieved? I would really like to add the necessary fields for my signup, such as First/Last name, and then more specific things for my site such as how many children, their names, etc. Any suggestions would be very well appreciated.

Thanks – Ron

While this theme is a long way from being ready for public release, I thought I’d solicit comments. I’m having some trouble with character encoding (as mentioned here http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/823?replies=5 ).

The site is currently on a live testing server and I don’t want it to get indexed. Hopefully, the nofollow will work. Anyway, take a look and let me know your thoughts!

I’m definately open to feedback.

Cheers!

Hi,

I installed BBpress today as well as someone else, on the same server though (in case that’s the problem). This person couldn’t make the admin password to work, although mine worked like a charm.

I tried to reset the password and was prompted with the message saying

An email has been sent to the address we have on file for you…

But neither I or the other person (who complained it wasn’t working at first) did receive the mail.

I wonder if this wouldn’t be a bug of the latest 0.8.1 version ?

Anyone has a fix ?

Hi,

I discovered that bbpress.png located in the bb-images directory was corrupted somehow on the fresh archive I downloaded from here.

Eventhough it was present on the directory, it would refuse to show up on the various webpages. Even a direct link would cause a 404 error (!?).

I downloaded it from http://bbpress.org/bbpress.png and got it to work this time.

Actually I’ve got a standalone javascript that does everything the WP plugin does … except load buttons to automate the code. And I’ve had it working in several BBPresses since mid last year. Add the js call in the header and it will load any simple href link to mp3, flv, mov etc. in a player.

I’ve been meaning to get around to modifying the WP plugin for BBPress since the official release, it’s on my todo list when I get to upgrading my BBPress installs for several WPMu’s. That’ll be a while yet though and I’ve yet to acquaint myself with BBPress plugins, is there a good quicktags plugin I can check out for starters?

[fel64]

Brilliant – works straight away again and has all the options I wanted. Thanks.

This is a problem with the path to the CSS, check the source:

http / vindicationdurotan.combbpress/bb-templates/kakumei/style.css

That backslash should not be there. There have been a couple threads about this lately:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/795

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/820

IE can deal with the backslash but FF cannot. Once you correct that slash problem, things will look fine in FF.

They are line numbers.

That link has the patch file without wrapping.

Worked like a charm. 25 seconds of my time to fix a problem plaguing myself and my admins, very nifty.

Can I assume my bozo checkbox will return with the next version of bbpress? Until then how would I mark someone as a bozo… type a ‘1’ into their bozo textbox?

[mirce]

I am having the same problem. Will this patch solve it or the changes are already included in the latest version?

Mircea.

[stuboo]

Yeah. I saw that post but the collation is the same in my bbpress install and my wp install. In addition, I’m currently running Invision Power Board on the same server (so same mysql database) with the same data – I’m trying to convert from IPB to bbpress.

Server info can be found here http://pharmboard.dreamhosters.com/info.php

Thanks for your help.

Hello all,

I seem to have stumbled on another oddity I can’t solve…my user registration times are based on GMT, not on Pacific time as I have configured in the bbpress config.php file, as well as the wp Admin->Options page. I have added the following php script to a page to detect the server time.

<? print date("F d, Y H:i:s", time())?>

The time returned is the correct (Pacific) time, (-8 GMT). Any suggestions where else I can look, what else to try?

[macwise]

allrightythen. Guess I’ll post again

[chrishajer]

How about the server version (or is that the server version)?

This thread talked about collation in the database, maybe that’s related?

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/620

[Null]

More topics are gone, seems the forum went a bit back in time (it crashed and restored with back ups?)

[macwise]

I had a topic that I posted about my users registration time being off by 8 hours, making it equal to GMT. The post I had made earlier today is now gone. Either I have used offensive language, enough to get my post deleted, (I have heard that GMT is a swear word in some country, can’t remember which at the moment…), or it was accidentally/bugzadentally erased? Like, automagically? Any input? Did I miss my answer?

[stitzelj]

Just a note – the plugins database at bbpress.org/plugins seems to be offline. Leastwise, I can’t get to it to look at or download any plugins. I keep getting an error:

Cannot select DB

Just thought I’d make mention of this so someone can fix it. It’s been offline for most of the day.

[Null]

Nice, I like the idea using a plugin to add a quick patch (rather then a whole new version).

Perhaps it’s an idea to add this to the download page aswell

(and to the blog as an announcement)

Try that, it makes users log in before they can see any of the forum.

[elainevigneault]

Yes, those tutorials and downloads are meant to use the WP theme. They just call the WP header. I tried this one:

http://www.adityanaik.com/blog/bbpress-and-wordpress-integration/

It works like it says it does, but unfortunately for my site, it looks terrible and doesn’t integrate at all. Looks like I’ll have to modify the forums’ style sheet, which isn’t that bad. It’s just that it would be nice if when I modified one, it worked for both.

I have bbpress and wordpress running independently on the same domain but am having some encoding problems with bbpress that I didnt have on my local server.

As an example . . .

Shows as . . .

I am sharing some of the same header information between my bbpress install and my wp theme, but I don’t know enough about encoding to know if that’s the problem.

Thanks,
