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

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.

Although there are already two avatar plugins available, they require that users either have their own webspace to store an avatar or use one of the avatar services (e.g. Gravatar).

My users do not have either of those things, so I wrote an avatar upload plugin. Besides offering avatar hosting, it also allows you more control over the type and content of avatars than simply providing a link to an offsite image.

Features

• Bozos can not upload avatars.
• Admins can configure the maximum allowed file size (bytes) and dimensions (pixels) of images.

  • Currently done from within the script (no Admin page interface at this time).

• Anybody with the ‘moderate’ capability can upload another user’s avatar.

  • This ensures that inappropriate images can be removed.
  • There is no “delete avatar” function at this time, but an inappropriate image can be removed by uploading a ’safe’ image (e.g. a blank 1×1 pixel image) to replace it (you could then manually set that user as a bozo to stop them re-uploading inappropriate images.

• File checking is carried out to ensure that:

  • The file has a valid extension (.gif, .jpeg, .jpeg, .png)
  • The file has a valid content-type (’image/gif’, ‘image/jpeg’, ‘image/png’)
  • The file extension and content-type actually match.
  • Other checks for filesize, image dimensions, etc.

I will be submitting this avatar to the bbPRess Plugin Repositry too.

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.

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

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 :>

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

I take no credit

[Trent Adams]

There is a new forum in town! It is for showing off your bbPress and how you have customized it! Let us know your URL, your theme, your plugins and anything else you want us to know! Go ahead, Pimp Your Press!

So go ahead everyone! Start a new thread for your site and everyone has the chance to comment on it!

Thanks to mdawaffe for this one!

Trent

[Trent Adams]

Isn’t that entire ‘forum’ based on just normal posts and then using the rating plugin from mdawaffe? It can be done on bbPress if I am understanding it correctly. Just have an install that has the ratings plugin and then a template to display the items on the first page that have the highest rating or the most votes. Am I missing something? (I easily could be)

Trent

[Trent Adams]

This will be a problem on installs until 1.0 comes out as it seems to be fixed in TRAC now. I left a comment on this issue as well:

[Davor Dedic]

Yeah,

I saw that, went back to the start, (everything is back to normal now) however everything is working except of logging through bbPress with my WP user, again once logge through WP, no problem ???

Any thoughts ?

P.S.

What did you mean by “…and then break it with tring to include WP content like the UTW plugin ” do you mean I should stop trying doing that
