Maker, Yes indeedy…this is definitely SamBauers plugin being used. It’s great. Be sure to read the whole thread, because if you don’t update every forum by adding it to a category, then you WILL suffer the consequences! (you’ll get some nifty mysql errors until you fix it).
Also, my suggestion to ANYONE using this patch…use it BEFORE you implement your design. I had quite a few things that had to change when I implemented it, as the post/category/forum hierarchy was quite a bit different from teh standard install. My CSS classes got ALL out of whack.
Good luck!
Well, I got it working, but it uses a hack rather than a plugin. It wasn’t too hard, I guess I could document the hack until such time as I work out how to make it a plugin.
The thing I don’t quite ‘get’ yet (not having made a plugin for either WordPress or bbPress before) is how to modify the behaviour of an existing function. If I write my own version of a function, will it overwrite the existing function?
Yeah. Request already 
waiting for approval.
Do you have a URL where this can be seen in action? Sounds like the posts are being caught as spam or the users are being marked as bozos. I haven’t heard of this specific problem, although this might be close:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/643
There was a plugin created recently that dealt with the bozo issue:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/37
Not a patch, not a new release, a plugin. You need to drop it into a my-plugins folder, which you might need to create first if you do not already have one. It goes in your forum root and you just create a folder called my-plugins, then put this plugin into that folder.
I’ve just installed the 0.8.1, every time a write a new post with an Administrator or a normal account my post is marked as Deleted (DB > post_status = 2) and in fact bbPress won’t show nothing but the first post after installation (First Post! w00t).
Sometimes when i push the Delete link the post will turn on and finally appear.
I use 2 different installations and got the same problem.
I don’t use both permalink and Wordpres integration, no plugins, the only basic installation.
Glad you got it working! Marking the topic as resolved!

I fixed it! o/
Remember how the cookies “looked” identical?
Well they weren’t.
The cookies created by bbpress added the hash to the end of the cookie name.
Both Safari and Camino didn’t reveal this, but Flock did. I was using these other browsers as a testing platform because I needed to clear cookies in between each test.
I added:
$bb->usercookie = 'wordpressuser';
$bb->passcookie = 'wordpresspass';
To my bbpress config to solve the problem. (which I found on one of the links you sent me)
I actually like the idea of the cookie name including the hash. Isn’t this more secure? Correct me if I’m wrong, but wouldn’t this make it near impossible for another site to read that cookie?
Thanks for your help Trent!
It will still let different cookies if you don’t have them ‘integrated’ for the login from the config.php. That is why I was leading you towards those articles. I am sure being an WPMU user you are fully aware of working with complex issues and I didn’t want to try and ‘dumb it down’ too much. In terms of the cookies issue, I have had plenty of problems moving things around and changing structures to know that the ‘WordPress Integration’ under the bbPress Documentation is the best when bbPress is in a directory inside WordPress, but not always!
If you let me know how you have it setup and what you have in your wp-config.php and config.php for cookie and integration stuff, I might be able to assist more. I just know that if you already installed bbPress and it is using bb_users versus wp_users, it might be harder to get the cookies working (at least in my experience)..
Trent
Thanks for the heads up Trent. Unfortunately those mostly focus integration of user databases etc. Which I have already done.
Perhaps I’ll take a look at how each application is looking for the cookies. There might be a clue in there.
It seems most people have the forum in a sub directory of wp,.. which makes things much easier.
But what I don’t understand is,.. the cookies are IDENTICAL… why doesn’t it work?
Done. I’m glad to help bbPress.
You can define the parameters like the cookie name and domain, so you should be able to do what you want here. There is already functions though that can do things if a user is logged in. For example:
<?php if (bb_current_user_can('write_posts')) : ?>
DO SOMETHING
<?php endif; ?>
This has it so if the user is logged in and can write posts (default member) then do something or put in a piece of code.
Hope that helps.
Trent
That would be great if you could do that Atsutane as it allows you to have the ‘working’ code up and the ‘work in progress’ code as well! Just a thought!
Trent
If you could make it public and then post a reply to the following thread and to the internationalize bbPress post that would be great! Thanks for that!
Trent
Subforums is the patch by SamBaeurs for sure, yes.
Trent
Steven,
I not sure of the ‘exact’ best procedure of combining bbPress and WPMU, but these are some users that have it going:
Simpler integration with WordPress
https://codex.wordpress.org/Ergate/wpmu_bbPress_integration
https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic.php?id=2166&replies=10
It is a little different with WPMU as the table structures are a little different, but those posts seem to most likely have the key. Integrating with normal WP is much easier.
Trent
maker, you are correct (I believe) that there is no plugin to upload images although there are plugins to allow images in posts.
Allow images
WordPress user integration
Latest bbPress posts in WordPress
Latest WP post in bbPress
Have fun.
You can have two developers (macwise and bbPress core team) working on the same code in different places. I think svn is smart enough to figure it out when you commit and svn up.
I just spent a while translating a .po file that I got from here to Swedish and creating a .mo file from it. You can see the results on forum.rimnytt.se.
Should I make it public, or is there already a Swedish translation or a fresher .po file?
Same thing again, it’s great. Why don’t you make an entry in the plugins DB for it? https://bbpress.org/plugins/add/
If it’s in the Trac and it’s been assigned to someone then yeah they’re probably working on it?
macwise,
how did you create your extra forums/subforums?
I’ve done some looking around and found SamBaeurs patch – is this the best way to do this?
Hi,
Watching the TRAC, I’m seeing some new drag and drop functions for ordering the forums. Is this true? Cause I was working on a plugin to do this based on my bbmenu plugin. If this is true, I can stop devloping this, so let me know
I suggest to SEARCH these forums first, cause your questions are answered many times before. I also suggest to look at the documentation and plugins available on this site
so there is no image uploading inherent in bbpress? But there are image plugins?
What can be shared between WP and BB? logins? Can wordpress show latest BB posts?
