Still can’t get those icons to show up though.

The Allow-image plugin seems to have some problem. It cannot work properly on my bbpress 0.8.1. After I type <img src=”what ever” /> and then reedit the post, then tag
will become
<img />. I think it due to the rmove_filter (“pre_post”, “……”); in the plugin. Anyone has the same problem ? Thanks
Conversely, if you love the feature so much, simply add the plugin. The majority of bbPress users were not using the software as a support forum, so it was moved to a plugin. That’s all. I agree with the author’s decision to remove it from the core.
But I love this feature.
That’s the whole reason why I chose this script.
If you hate the feature so much, why don’t you edit your template’s topic.php file and remove the corresponding code.
This usually means that you have mod_rewrite equals true in your config.php, but don’t actually have the .htaccess file for them to work. Go back to your config and change that to false to make sure it works again. After that, you could check out:

You have it right. Visitors don’t need to login to view, only post. I went to your site and am a visitor and never got asked once to view posts with a login (which bbPress can’t do without a plugin anyway). Could you give an example of a URL that this happens?
Trent
I just turned off the permalinks right now, which is the reason they work fine. I read about the same problem here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/29?replies=8 as Jaxia, but for me the pretty permalinks don’t work at all. I mean they are generated fine, but when I try any link, none of them seem to work. I will just turn permalinks on again and you can see for yourself.
Thanks for the help.
Hi there
First of all, thank you for a nice and easy forum system.
I’ve integrated TinyMCE with my bbPress installation, but TinyMCE inserts some HTML, which bbPress doesn’t support.
Is there a way to allow more HTML tags in bbpress?
Yeh AMP has 2 ways to embed media, one uses SWFObject to embed Flash movies, like all the youtube etc stuff. The other tests simple href links in the page for media file extensions .mp3, .flv, .mov etc, and if it finds them it loads em.
It’s just the SWFObject javascript embeds that need to be handled behind the scenes by a bbPress plugin as I take it most everyone knows how to make simple href links. For these all you need is the javascript call in the head:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://PATH TO PLAYER DIRECTORY/anarchy_media/anarchy.js"></script>
And yeh, no idiocy required, apart from my own idiocy of ommission … I should really get around to documenting what anarchy.js actually does and add that to the download package so it’s all clearer than opaque mud… sort of more a translucent mud hopefully.
Hello,
I have read the FAQ here: http://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks
and I have tried both, using Options +MultiViews and also using the code generated by /bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php but I cannot seem to get my permalinks working.
http://www.nmimsieee.com/forums/ is the link to my forums.
I am using GoDaddy for hosting. I have set $bb->mod_rewrite = true in my config.php and my forums are in the same database as WordPress.
I recently migrated my forums to my WordPress database, and I did the same at home (I have a server running on my laptop, and I just loaded all the data onto the domain mentioned above).
Permalinks work fine at home on my WAMP setup. However on my domain at GoDaddy, I get an error saying “No input file specified.”
Could anyone please help me out and tell me where am I going wrong? I would really appreciate it.
Did anyone report strange things happening after the import with this script? Like anonymous visitors not being able to view new posts.
I installed bbpress 0.8.1 at http://www.surinameaanhetwoord.net. I found a plugin to convert SMF forums into bbpress. It all went perfectly, I thought. All users are present, all previous posts are visible to everyone.
But when I make a new post, it is not visible for visitors who are not logged in. Once you login, you can see the new posts.
Is this normal behavior or did something go wrong with the conversion? Visitors should not log in to read, they need to login to post.
Help?
Before we can can get too much further here, what is the other system that you are hooking the cookies with? What does it use for login cookies? On first glance, if it is wordpress, you can check out:
https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/
It also gives you some cookie settings for possible use with another program.

I have a club site with a members area, i’m going to set up bbpress as a forum, the log in already is in place for the members area which checks if they are paid up members, i can create the bbusers table okay.
Q what do i set the cookie names/values as in my existing log in page so that no log in to bbpress is needed?
“As well, if you have an integration with WordPress, bbPress integrates logins perfectly with WordPress.”
That said, if they are in different subdomains you will have to tweak some files (currently, anyway). But it’s two lines that need changing in total, and it’s very simple. 
If you’re planning to install WordPress, look for a WP plugin that does whatever you want and logs you in – there are way way more WP plugins than bbPress plugins.
Err … probably! In WordPress you have both hooks and filters, where hooks are there to add actions and filters to change the data going to and leaving the database (like your post – adding stuff to links etc), but they’re almost identical. Never used this in bbPress.

I’m trying to use the Support Forum plugin found here:
http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/16
and I’m having a problem. I’m not seeing the icons. Actually it appears that they’re not getting outputted as a looksee in any of the outputted source shows no pngs.
Using the 0.8.1 version of bbpress with the standard theme. all of the files are in the my-plugins subdirectory right under root. The plugin works fine. Just no image output.
Thanks,

I had problems too. The table was not created. I had to do it manualy. I have all of the latest updates for both WP and bbPress so I dont know what went wrong. To fix the data base issue go to you myphp admin (data base) and give the following command.
CREATE TABLE bb_privatemessages (
pm_id BIGINT( 20 ) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT ,
id_sender INT( 11 ) NOT NULL ,
id_receiver INT( 11 ) NOT NULL ,
seen INT( 2 ) NOT NULL ,
pmtitle VARCHAR( 64 ) NOT NULL ,
message VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL ,
created_on DATETIME NOT NULL ,
PRIMARY KEY ( pm_id )
) TYPE = MYISAM ;
This solved my problems for now.
Let me know if it works for non-WP-integrated bbpress… if so I’ll see about using it in a couple of my plugins

If you pre-encrypt the password and insert that value, you can then log in with your new password (in this case “test”).
Here’s the new thread I’ve posted it on officially. If you can leave comments on the plugin there it would be nice so that it’s all on one spot. Thanks again for all your help!

I’ve just created my first plugin. This plugin allows custom profile fields which a user will see upon registration and subsequently when editing their profile page. The values will also show up on the view profile page. This plugin also allows the addition of the profile fields from the wordpress’ profile page. Refer to the instructions in the plugin for simple configuration details.
This plugin was developed in a bbpress/wordpress integrated environment. I’m not sure if this works on bbpress installs only. It wouldn’t hurt to try, however, and I’m sure it can be modified to work with bbpress w/o a wordpress integration.
Please try it out and let me know what you think.
Here’s the link:

When you say Http_Auth, do you mean something like the LDAP auth?

As well, if you have an integration with WordPress, bbPress integrates logins perfectly with WordPress.

Not yet … but I’m still interested. AMP will still work if you add the javascript to the header either from the standalone player or from wordpress with the amp plugin installed. Picks up any links to flv, mp3, mov, mp4, m4v, m4a, m4b, 3gp, wmv, avi and asf. The youtube etc flash players would need to embed javascript though and so will need to be ported to bbpress via quicktags … which is what I’m looking into.
