Try this thread:

It might be a localhost issue with the backslashes. There is a plugin I reference in there that might help.

You have tried the plugin that’s meant to fix this? It worked for me. https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/822?replies=10

You could also try upgrading to the most current version off SVN, but you have to be prepared to get your hands dirty and face other bugs to do that. Get something like Tortoise SVN and go to the downloads page here.

Just wanted to let you know the some big players like our product!

I am, supposedly a fix is in the works: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/643?replies=46

Re-reading the baptiste thread, I see that commenting out add_filter('pre_post', 'bb_filter_kses', 50); in default-filters does the trick. It solves all my problems at once!

I guess bbpress needs to do better conflict checking againt wp when wp is included.

This is the site: http://automatorworld.com/bbpress/

I’m wrapping my whole WP site around bbpress. It’s more than just styling, as you can see. I though this wasn’t supposed to present problems, but I guess this whole “kses” thing is one, eh?

[Trent Adams]

I have a TRAC ticket already about this!

Member baptiste here had a similar problem although it was with 0.75:

Maybe your issue is similar?

[fel64]

Hey, that sounds like a great idea. The ability for plugins to automatically clean up after themselves … fantastic!

1.0 Alpha checked out March 25, 2007.

I just noticed in my admin panel that there are four normal looking entries in “Recently Moderated” and then the last one just shows this:

Topic title started by .

The source shows this:

<li>Topic titled <a href="http://www.example.com/forum/

topic.php?id&page&replies&view=all"></a> started by <a

href="http://www.example.com/forum/profile.php?id=1"></a>.</li>

[edit – I added line breaks there since the code overflow was not displaying]

So, some of it is in the source, but there’s no topic title and there’s no topic starter name (which should be admin based on the id). It’s also missing the topic id, the page id, replies, etc.

Any thoughts?

I did change the name of the Key Master to “Admin” in bb-includes/capabilities.php if that matters.

I am using the following plugins if it matters:

allow-images.php

js_quicktags.js

bb-emoticons.php

notification.php

bb-limit-latest-discussion.php

onlinelist.php

bb-memberlist.php

since-last-visit.php

comment_qt_4_bbpress.php

wordpress-integration.php

Thanks. ( I imagine I can get rid of bb-memberlist since user management seems to be integrated into the admin panel now. )

Don’t think so. Vbulletin is obsoleet even phpbb3 (more then 1.5 years late) isn’t as fast and need as bbpress is. I don’t think 1000 post will be a problem since bbpress is “build” a differnt way (don’t know the english terms to explain it right)

[Arlo]

I’m on latest trac…is this filter present? I’m not seeing it anywhere.

[citizenkeith]

I fixed mine… just had the code pasted incorrectly. But I didn’t like it… seems to slow the site down quite a bit. I’ll wait for a better solution.

What’s up with that tinymc… it’s crap really… don’t understand why wordpress uses it either, there are way better ones out there….

[citizenkeith]

hmmm… Doesn’t seem to work. Any ideas?

I’m a new bbPress user. I’m using the forum for some online friends to just hang out and chat. We were doing this on another forum that decided not to host it anymore.

They were using vBulletin, and it had a couple quirks. They limited the number of posts in a thread to 1000. Whenever it would get to that point, they’d close it and start a new one. The reason given was that when they reindexed the database, threads with a large number of posts would cause the indexing to choke.

Should I follow the same procedure wth bbPress?

[LMD]

Hello again, just finished examining code. There are two issues.

The first issue is that the blog entries you are posting to bbPress appear as closed topics. This problem is totally unrelated to the “Add Titles to Replies” plugin, which does not touch the ‘topics’ table in the database at all. I suggest you enquire with the ‘bbPress Post’ author about this. Did you update that plugin on your forum at the same time as installing mine? That could be the source of the problem.

Now, having said all that, the second issue is going to seem to contradict it. What I mean is, are you sure the topics are ‘closed’, or is it just that the content does not appear – that is, is it a phantom topic?

This can occur when the ‘topics’ table gets updated, but the ‘posts’ table does not for some reason (usually a coding error). When you create a new topic in bbPress, you are actually simultaneously creating the topic and making the first post in that topic – so both tables get updated.

This is where the problem involves my “Add Titles to Replies” plugin, because we have altered the ‘posts’ table, which may be causing an error in the ‘bbPress Post’ plugin code (that plugin writes to the database in a different way to the bbPress core).

Still with me? Good…

Now, I do not have access to an integrated WordPress/bbPress installation, so I have made a stab in the dark at trying to fix this the easy way. I’ve written a very short function (a bit of a hack really) that you can add to the ‘bbPress Post’ plugin.

In the ‘bbPress Post’ plugin open the file called ‘bbpress_post.php’ and add the following code to the bottom of the page, just before the bottom PHP tag ?>

/* Ugly 'Add Titles to Replies' Hack by LouiseDade */

function bbpress_add_reply_title( $post_id, $topic_id ) {

global $wpdb, $otherdb;

$bb_table_prefix = bbpress_getoption('bb_prefix');



if (bbpress_getoption('bb_other_base') === "no") {

$topic_title=$wpdb->get_var("SELECT topic_title FROM ". $bb_table_prefix ."topics WHERE topic_id=$topic_id LIMIT 1; ");

$wpdb->query("UPDATE ". $bb_table_prefix ."posts SET post_title='$topic_title' WHERE post_id='$post_id' LIMIT 1");

} else {

$topic_title=$otherdb->get_var("SELECT topic_title FROM ". $bb_table_prefix ."topics WHERE topic_id=$topic_id LIMIT 1; ");

$otherdb->query("UPDATE ". $bb_table_prefix ."posts SET post_title='$topic_title' WHERE post_id='$post_id' LIMIT 1");

}

}

Next, scroll up to the bbpress_new_post() function and at the bottom, before the closing curly brace, add:

/* Added by LouiseDade - updates post reply title */

bbpress_add_reply_title( $post_id, $topic_id );

Then scroll up again to the bbpress_post_update() function and add the same code as above just before the closing curly brace again.

Re-upload the plugin with the changes made and try posting a WordPress entry.

If it works I shall jump around for joy, but unfortunately I have grave doubts about it. I think it might need to be done the hard-way, which involves rewriting some of the ‘bbPress Post’ plugin.

Good luck!

I just installed bbpress and I have a feed of my forum in my netvibes page, but it does not seem to ‘refresh’?

My quesiton is: How fast does the netvibes page should ‘notice’ that I posted a new post in my forum? Is there something I should look into? I think it should be ‘noticed’ at once. Right?

Many thanks!

-daniel

Update => It was just published in my netvibes page… that was after like 50 mins!! And I hit ‘refresh’ in the netvibes feed. Is this normal?

[LMD]

Hi,

Thank you for letting me know. I suspect the problem is something to do with the fact that an extra database field has been created, and the ‘bbPress Post’ plugin is not updating that field. I have downloaded the plugin and will look at the code to see what’s going on — the fix may have to be in ‘bbPress Post’ rather than my plugins – but it may just be a small code change you can make yourself.

So, I’ll get back to you in this topic later.
