Is anyone else having a similar problem? Or, alternatively, does anyone in the know have an idea of how I can troubleshoot this? It’s painful to make a post with the way things are now.

Still using .73 and using the following plugins:

allow-images.php

bb-limit-latest-discussion.php

bb-memberlist.php

bbpress_sitemap.php

notification.php

onlinelist.php

Thanks.

Thanks Nate, I’ll look into that … must’ve gotten lost in the shuffle when I migrated.

Can someone point me in the right direction to get started? Main issue is how do I get bbpress to “receive” email? Does this HAVE TO involve cron jobs etc …?

Another call to all the template authors. With 0.8 coming out right away, you might want to take a look at the new way that templates are going to be called. You have to make sure your theme information is included in the style.css (check top of default template style.css for info).

As well, themes will have their own folder in the my-templates/ folder. So, /my-templates/theme-name/ ! It still only needs the changed files in there, but you can check out the Themes Documentation for more information!

The last real thing you might want to do is take a snapshot of your template for the admin area. After you have the snapshot, it is best to create it in PNG format and call it screenshot.png

Just a heads up! It will be wicked!

is there really going to be an 8.0 in 3 hours?

Shuldn’t have to change anything. That’s all bbpress code.

[spencerp]

Just to update everyone on this.. I’ve upgraded the forums to the very Latest SVN files for .80alpha, and the latest file changes for the Forum Categories enhancement by SamBauers..

I plan to tweak some more things though, and also release the “Gathering” theme for bbPress then. It’s still on my To-Do list, and it will get done then folks!

Just thought I would bring a little attention to the bbPress installation that they are using over at wordpress.com support forums. I really like the design of that support forum. Looks good Micheal!

Ironically, there is a post with the “notification” tag for a plugin that does what you want. Read through this thread on the notification plugin as this plugin will notify you of a reply and there is even a thread for an alteration of the plugin that makes it send out a reply for every single post that is replied to!

I found an email notification plugin for WordPress here:

http://watershedstudio.com/portfolio/software/wp-email-notification.html

and somehow related to bbpress I’ve found a plugin called TracNotification here:

https://trac.bbpress.org/wiki/TracNotification

But I don’t get it. Do I have to install Trac completely on my server just to make bbpress send out notifications?

I’m using this code in my Graphic Display Ranks plugin:

$path_to_subdirectory= bb_get_option('uri') . "my-plugins/ranks/";

$get_config = $path_to_subdirectory . "gdr_config.php";

include($get_config);

The plugin works just fine on the forum, but on the admin pages I’m getting these warnings:

Warning: main(my-plugins/ranks/gdr_config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/brightan/public_html/bbPress/my-plugins/display-rank-images.php on line 43

Warning: main(my-plugins/ranks/gdr_config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/brightan/public_html/bbPress/my-plugins/display-rank-images.php on line 43

Warning: main(): Failed opening ‘my-plugins/ranks/gdr_config.php’ for inclusion (include_path=’.:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/brightan/public_html/bbPress/my-plugins/display-rank-images.php on line 43

I’m pretty sure it’s something to do with the path, but what am I not seeing?

[mattpeckham]

Doh, figured it out. I had http://www.mikecarey.net in the home/siteurl options but just mikecarey.net in the config.php. I just switched lopped the ‘www’ off in the blog options and bingo, working fine!

[mattpeckham]

Hmm…well, my forums are like this:

http://mikecarey/forums

And the config file is set like this:

$bb->wp_home = ‘http://mikecarey.net’;

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://mikecarey.net’;

[Trent Adams]

This will be a big issue for quite a few people I think. In fact, there has been 2 occurances that I could have used an export function and frankly, the wordpress XML format would be my preference!

Great things coming as mdawaffe is doing some pretty major changes to the entire issue of TIME in bbPress.

A friend who loves WordPress (www.jcbd.com). Gave me this to work with the plugin.

It goes in the rss2 file.

<description><?php

if ( strstr( get_topic_title(), ‘[Members Only]’) ) echo ‘[Text of this post available to logged-in members only.]’;

else post_text();

?></description>

To see this work go to http://koma-inu.org/bbpress/

Do not log in.
Firefox or Safari sould get the same results.

if you have the forum as a sub folder in wp installation and have the wp_siteurl and wp_home url set you shouldnt have a problem..

if you dont have the instllation that way… go to

https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/

and look up the cookies section to fix the problem

[Sam Bauers]

Check here for a categories patch (not a plugin).

[mattpeckham]

I think I’ve got everything set correctly in my config.php file, but for some reason whenever I login to WordPress then switch to my forums, I’m logged out of bbPress. If I log into the forums then switch back to WordPress, I’m logged out of WordPress.

I have the ‘define’ and ‘require_once’ lines in my config.php file, and registered WP users *are* showing up correctly in both locations…isn’t it supposed to be possible to login once for both? Note I’m using Safari…

Cheers,

Matt

You could try this plugin: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/27?replies=1

Same problem in IE 7, no underline there either. It only effects IE as far as I know…

Got it running on my testsite:

[zapata]

Ok I’m having problems again… the background is I have a multi author blog and bbPress forum for the authors.

When I don’t want an author to access the forum but keep continuing to publish in WP, I tried setting the author status in bbPress to blog… it seems it blocks them from using WP too…

Is there a way to block a user from using bbPress but not WP.

[kineda]

thanks… I’ll go ahead and do that.

[bbolman]

yeah, unfortunately at the moment the two need to be in the same database for the integration to work. You don’t necessarily need to reinstall, you can probably just copy your info from one db to the other.

[kineda]

I guess they’re supposed to be in the same db.. DOH!?!

“Setting $bb->wp_table_prefix in bbPress’s config.php will tell bbPress to grab users and user meta data from those WordPress tables (in the same database as your bbPress tables).”

They need to make this a bit more clear for folks that are trying to integrate the two. If you’re installing bbPress without going to the integration instructions first, you’ll have to restart the entire process.

bbolman – is what I’m saying correct? if so, I’ll start the re-install. thanks.
