Your wordpress address at the bottom is http:/localhost and wouldn’t it be http://localhost/wordpress/ ? What is the url that you can access wordpress at? I am assuming that it is what I said with http://localhost/wordpress/. If that is the case, these would be the changes:

$bb->wp_home = 'http://localhost/wordpress';

$bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://localhost/wordpress';

As well, if that is the actual URL that you use for wordpress, then these:

$bb->domain = 'http://localhost/wordpress';

$bb->path = '/bbpress/';

Then, you have another problem and need to change to this:

$bb->akismet_key = 'false';

Try that and report back.

It is like: localhost/wordpress/bbpress

[flatworm]

It does not work. I will reinstall entire thing.

Is my config correct for localhost?

I might be enoying, but I demand less, then install on demand.

I learn.

I changed my WP password after installing this thing. Can it cause this problem .

Same thing…bbPress dev archives!

It would require a quick plugin. There is already a plugin to have the recent discussions in bbPress in wordpress, but it would be just another simple plugin using the calls made in statistics.php into a wordpress plugin.

Sorry to get back to you late here. I would imagine that importing from phpBB into bbPress will associate the users into bb_users. Being integrated, bbPress uses wp_users. That might cause some problems. Maybe you can edit the phpBB => bbPress importer to put the users into wp_users versus bb_users. That being said, *****BACKUP EVERYTHING FIRST******

You might want to install a test install on your server and try it there first as I am not sure what the consequences of doing it would be. Nothing too painful, but it might make you have to make a few changes to make sure the posts get associated with the right authors! One way to find out! Good luck!

What is bbPress’s admin page, and why, when I log in, there is no evidence,that I loggend in.

Did I install it correctly?

[Justin Tadlock]

I finally got everything set up at Books In Bed. The Forum is working well too. Tell me what you think of it so far.

The problems I have had are linking to a topic author’s profile page. I can get the “last poster’s” profile page link though.

What I think I need to do is get the author’s “user id” to do this, but for some reason I can’t get it.

Also, I’ve tried everything on this site to get pretty permalinks working (I use GoDaddy). They’ve always worked fine on my WordPress blog, but not on bbpress. The only thing I haven’t done is /bb-admin/rewrite_rules.php because I keep getting an error when I go to that page.

Add Titles to Replies plugin version 0.2 now available.

CHANGELOG

* 2007-03-11 ver. 0.2 enabled the title to be edited in “Edit Post” + template changes.

* 2007-03-10 ver. 0.1 relased

Edit: just seen Trent’s post – will see about adding it to repositry.

It depends on the amount of work you’re willing to put in as well as the complexity of your WordPress theme (assuming that you’re trying to match your bbPress theme to your WP theme?). Using CSS (which is what you use to style the site) is simple and enjoyable to me, but you may prefer to just get someone else to do it.

Everything is in plain English and the format is simple. Have a look at http://www.w3schools.com/css/

BBpress is only support IE?

tag link useful for IE, perhaps.

fail support for FF.

[wenkong]

multibyte chracter topic is no problem, the UTF8 Tag not working for my bbpress0.8.1-1 fix.

any idea?

[providencebooks]

I had a custom theme built for my wordpress site and it matches my CubeCart (which is in it’s own directory – wordpress is on site root). I am not proficient with this theme. Should I have someone do this for me or can I do this simply?

[Trent Adams]

You can set the bbPress cookies to whatever you want to integrate with your site’s cookies. It is a matter of defining them in your config.php and can be found at:

Sorry, I can’t help with the tags. Maybe this will help: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/433

> 2) How many tags will appear on the start page?

> does it go forever or is it limited to 100 etc

It is limited, never checked how many, but it’s

taken care of automatically.

<?php /* this is a block of code in backticks */

echo "Hello.nn";

?>

> 4) Is there a way to add images with a

> or a plugin that can do it

Not that I know of, and I know why it’s a problem (it messes up the layout when wide images are used.) Maybe just post the image parameters and ask people not to insert large images. Ban those who won’t comply

But maybe someone will consider the image size limits for a plugin.

Have fun

I’ve managed to create a plugin that adds titles to replies – and documented it. The plugin is available for download from my website:

http://www.classical-webdesigns.co.uk/articles/36_bbpress-plugin-add-titles-to-replies.html

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

One other thing, re:

“Preview sounds good – but better yet would be an AJAX thing that means you don’t even have to reload the page when you post. “

That’s what I meant by using the DOM. In fact there would be no need for AJAX even – by using the javascript DOM you can ‘preview in place’ the post you are currently working on. If users do not have javascript enabled, then graceful degradation would mean that a button to view the preview on a separate page would be visible.

Sounds like your admin is marked as a bozo, and you need to use this plugin: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/822

You do not normally need to moderate all the admin’s posts.

[bbpressfans]

actually, I’m bbpress fans, even I dislike the bugs, so I try the latest version, 0.8.1, but It still have some bull shit function, why admin post new reply still need to be moderate? after logout show no new reply.

is it necessary?

so sorry I lost control myself for looking just a simple forum app for my blog.

why so hassle to use it.

[novellino]

Hello boys and excused for my bad English. I want to insert in sidebar of mine blog made in wordpress the total number of the topic of the forum bbpress that they find themselves in the rows statistics.php. How I must make?

[erinther]

Hi,

I want to integrate my (non-wordpress) site with bbpress. It is an easy jobb with punbb: You simply include a single file(common.php) in your pages and then you can use punbb’s functions.(link). Can it be the same thing with bbpress?

I need this because I want to show or hide a part of my web pages based on that my bbpress form’s user is logged in or not .

[Atsutane]

it seem to me u set $bb->mod_rewrite = true; Follow the instruction here and u will be fine

[Jonathan Landrum]

Just to be sure, I’m starting fresh so I should bash this:

mkdir forum

cd /forum

svn co http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress/trunk/ .

Right? Did I miss anything?

Edit: It was right. Thanks guys!

[chrishajer]

1. No, you can use the same database and that’s actually preferred if you want to integrate things with WordPress in the future.

2. Yes, look inside the config.php and you will see the lines for WordPress integration.

Did you put your custom themes into folder under the my-templates directory?

Have you viewed this sticky and this was no help?

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/693?replies=2

Also, please provide a URL where this can be seen. Sounds like the path to the CSS is borked. The URL also helps someone determine what sort of hosting you’re using.
