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!

[Trent Adams]

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.

[kineda]

No, they each have their own database. Was bbPress supposed to be installed in the same database as WordPress?

[bbolman]

bbpress and wordpress are installed in the same database?

[kineda]

There’s only 1 user in bbPress (admin account/keymaster)

There are thousands of users registered on my WordPress blog, http://www.kineda.com.

None of the registered users from WordPress are showing up in bbPress.

It seems as if the wordpress-integration plugin in the /my-plugins/ folder isn’t doing it’s job. Is there a way to check if it’s running?

[so1o]

just to understand the problem.. you have more than 1 user in the system..
