Has anyone drafted a script that will import a Simple Machines Forum into bbPress? And if not, anyone savvy enough with enough free time on their hands to put one together?

[Jim S.]

There. Now I think I’m happy with it. I just had to change tactics to resolve the problem. The download link has been updated on my blog post with the updated version.

Do let me know if there are any other suggestions for improvements.

Looks alright here now, try refresh?

Edit:

Ow you fixed it

[chrishajer]

I think I answered my own question. This appears to work fine in .80.

[ardentfrost]

I haven’t upgraded yet, but I will be once I do. Is it broken for you?

I’ve also F’d with mine to try to get some functionality out of it.

[ardentfrost]

it should really only care about the name of the column. Even if you set it to int, it would get some values (they wouldn’t make any sense however).

I’m pretty sure in .80 of bbpress you have to have the template folder inside my-templates. So those files should be in my-templates/[your template here]. The function that gets the location only returns the location of the template folder.

Plus when you load /pm.php you don’t get any errors, just nothing is displayed in the source. I bet if you added an echo to say “hello” in pm.php it would be displayed. I bet if you added an echo below the file call for privatemessages.php you wouldn’t get jack. If that’s the case, that means the function is unable to find privatemessages.php and is halting.

I should have come up with some way to display something if it can’t find the file. I’ll release that in the next version… but for now it seems most likely to me either the files aren’t in the correct place or something affecting it’s ability to find the files has occurred.

[chrishajer]

Is anyone using this with .80?

We need a dl page with a list with these language files like:

http://www.phpbb.com/downloads.php (you need to scroll down a bit)

[chrishajer]

How about this?

Hi. First of all, thanks for your help.

Well, I’ve installed bbPress and integrated it with WordPress and it works fine.

But I’d like to show the last post of a forum on my WordPress home… is there any plugin to do that or what code should I use?

Thanks again.

[so1o]

actually no.

please refer to

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/693

cheers!

It looks like “my-templates” is actually now “bb-templates” but the information on http://bbpress.org/documentation/themes/ doesn’t reflect that.

Just a heads up…trying to make sure we don’t lose track of documentation before we even get bbpress out of diapers.

Hi all,

I just wanted to share my Indonesian translation of bbPress. You can download the file over here.

http://www.kyantonius.com/downloads/bbPress-ID.zip

In that zip file you will find two files, namely id_ID.po and id_ID.mo. Please use the appropriate one.

I hope this will be useful for Indonesian users of bbPress.

Regards,

Kemas

Without downloading the entire bbPress again, you can get config-sample.php (to start over) at:

https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/tags/0.8/config-sample.php

Trent

[Trent Adams]

I should have caught that the first time *SLAPS HIMSELF*. You are including your wp-config.php file for WordPress integration? For integration with wordpress, you need to define the other parts of wordpress, but I wouldn’t include that file as it has nothing to do with integration or with getting bbPress going. Take out this and it should work:

require_once( dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . '/wp-config.php' );

If you want to integrate with WordPress, check out this integration documentation for bbPress and WP.

Chrishajer reported this on the 11th as well. I sent in an email to the devlist, but I created a TRAC ticket as well at:

https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/588

[marky]

If you visit http://bbpress.org/forums/bb-login.php and use the top-most login form (the one in header.php), a recursive redirect occurs, which displays an error message in Safari. (I haven’t tested it in other browsers.)

This happens in all bbPress installations using the default template (and a few other templates that include the login form in the header). Is there a way to avoid this situation?

I am currently trying to install bbpress simply because zeroboard hates me. I have changed the info in my config.php file as I should have and see no problems, yet when I run install.php I get the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /mounted-storage/home24b/sub003/sc22569-MMPG/dongbang51.net/board/config.php on line 8

Any clue? I’ve added my config.php content below.

<?php

// ** MySQL settings ** //

define(‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘********’); //

The name of the database

define(‘BBDB_USER’, ‘********’); //

Your MySQL username

define(‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘********’); //

…and password

define(‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘********’); //

99% chance you won’t need to change this value

//

Change the prefix if you want to have multiple forums in a single database.

$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’; //

Only letters, numbers and underscores please!

//

If your bbPress URL is http://bbpress.example.com/forums/ , the examples would be correct.

//

Adjust the domain and path to suit your actual URL.

//

Just the domain name; no directories or path. There should be no trailing slash here.

$bb->domain = ‘http://www.dongbang51.net&#8217;; //

Example: ‘http://bbpress.example.com&#8217;

//

There should be both a leading and trailing slash here. ‘/’ is fine if the site is in root.

$bb->path = ‘/board/’; //

Example: ‘/forums/’

//

What are you going to call me?

$bb->name = ‘New’;

//

This must be set before running the install script.

$bb->admin_email = ‘********@hotmail.com’;

//

Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.

$bb->mod_rewrite = false;

//

The number of topics that show on each page.

$bb->page_topics = 30;

//

A user can edit a post for this many minutes after submitting.

$bb->edit_lock = 60;

//

Your timezone offset. Example: -7 for Pacific Daylight Time.

$bb->gmt_offset = 0;

//

Change this to localize bbPress. A corresponding MO file for the

//

chosen language must be installed to bb-includes/languages.

//

For example, install de.mo to bb-includes/languages and set BBLANG to ‘de’

//

to enable German language support.

define(‘BBLANG’, ”);

//

Your Akismet Key. You do not need a key to run bbPress, but if you want to take advantage

//

of Akismet’s powerful spam blocking, you’ll need one. You can get an Akismet key at

//

http://wordpress.com/api-keys/

$bb->akismet_key = ”; //

Example: ‘0123456789ab’

//

The rest is only useful if you are integrating bbPress with WordPress.

//

If you’re not, just leave the rest as it is.

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ”; //

WordPress table prefix. Example: ‘wp_’;

$bb->wp_home = ”; //

WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) //

No trailing slash. Example: ‘http://example.com&#8217;

$bb->wp_siteurl = ”; //

WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) //

No trailing slash. Example: ‘http://example.com&#8217;

/* Stop editing */

if ( !defined(‘BBPATH’) )

define(‘BBPATH’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/’ );

require_once( dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . ‘/wp-config.php’ );

?>

After a lot of trial and error, lots of frustration I give you:

bbMenu 1.0

What does it do?

It adds a menu to you bbPress site. You can edit the menu in the admin page (Content->Menu) by just drag & drop the menu items in the order you want.

Installation instructions and some documentation are included in the .zip

To do:

– Rename the menu items by doubble clicking them and then put in your desired name.

– Add an bbMenu_installed check so theme builders can make their theme’s compatible for bbMenu aswell as for non bbMenu users. (It will check if the bbMenu is installed.) Ideas about how to do this are more then welcome!!!

Download it here:

I hope so, because I’m running into the limits of my abilities and patience quite a bit short of what we’d really like to have.

[chrishajer]

Please start a new thread for that new topic

https://bbpress.org/documentation/themes/

Basically, it’s not done from the admin panel. You create a my-templates folder, then a folder in there for your theme (so “newtheme” or somthing) then follow the instructions above.

[chrishajer]

Does LDAP do what you want? (Never used it, just know it’s a directory technology, but I thought it had groups)

https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/190

Maybe that’s overkill.

Also looks like Trent has filed a trac ticket:

Is that the same problem you’re experiencing?
