The support forum functions were removed with 0.8 and so10 placed these functions into a plugin. I am sure there is only a few small changes that will not take very long.

Trent –
I’ll post the errors when I get home tonight. I think that it probably had to do with changes in the database, if I remember correctly I think it was with the “topic resolved” field?
Len
the topic resolved functions have been removed from the core bbpress distribution. but the functions are converted over to a plugin.
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/16
suleiman, i would suggest you to hold on and not install the plugin right away. I will be updating the plugin today evening . after that you can use the plugin and it will recognise all your topic statuses. I will put a note in this topic when it is done.
That is a good question. I have yet to test it on the most recent version of bbPress. I guess if nothing else you can run it on an install of 0.74 and get it working and then upgrade bbPress to 0.8 afterwards if nothing else. What were the errors?
Trent
Does anybody know if this script is supposed to work with the latest release of bbpress (.
? I ran into some problems importing some of the tables.
Thanks, Len
Hi,
I’ve successfully installed bbPress and Pretty Premalinks on my site. I want to modify the Premalinks.
For example:
http://www.example.com/forum/1
to become
http://www.example.com/forum-1
I tried to modify the admin/rewrite-rules.php.
RewriteRule ^forum/([0-9]+)/page/([0-9]+)$ <?php bb_option( ‘path’ ); ?>forum.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]
My ideea was:
RewriteRule ^forum-([0-9]+)/page/([0-9]+)$ <?php bb_option( ‘path’ ); ?>forum.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]
However all the changes I do the rewrite-rules.php give an error and do not modify the ULR. Is there another file where the rewrite-rules are configured?
Thanx for the support.
On a related note, if you cannot use even the default theme and no thumbnails appear in your Presentation admin panel, try looking at this topic:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/700
I am wondering if this is an error in TRAC. Seems to be related this this ticket that has a patch and plugin to fix it:
https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/575

I upgraded to Desmond and I am trying to use the default them (Kakumei) and the theme is not being applied. The theme thumbnail file does not display in the admin panel eitehr.

I have checked it over and don’t see anything. Check out my other thread.

I have looked over the code of this plugin and it doesn’t send your email to spammers. Jaim3 even put this in the code:
// DISCLAIMER: This is a joke
echo "<li><h3>Sending all your database e-mails to all major world-wide spam sending mafias...</h3></li>";
If someone else wants to look to confirm, but it does what it is intended to as far as I am concerned.

Hi all,
I have been trying to convert my phpbb script to bbpress and unknowingly used this script by jiam3.
Here is the link: http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/402?replies=25
Admin if you find this command below in this script to be true please lock this thread and remove the link.
Careful, at the end of the script it writes:
“Sending all your database e-mails to all major world-wide spam sending mafias…”
This is not good. I tried to contact the author and the email link is dead.
I have now to suffer the consquences. “Buyer Beware!”
I tried to contact the author of this list, and his email is dead. I would becareful as it seems this list sends all your forums members emails to spammers. Just to be safe DONT use this script!
I’ll have to suffer with the conciquences!
Watch out! I think this script by jaim3 sends all your emails to spammers!
For those interested in adding forum categories to their brand new bbPress 0.8 install, there is an updated patch on the development site.
The relevant ticket is here
Download the last attachment “categories-build701.patch”, this is the build number for version 0.8
To patch, simply go to your install directory:
$ cd /path/to/installation/
Then (on Unix, Linux and OSX) patch using patch
$ patch -p0 < /path/to/patchfile/categories-build701.patch
On windows you will have to use some other patching tool – but the premise is the same.
Upgrade your database by running the upgrade script at /bb-admin/upgrade.php
Go to the category admin area and create a category/s, then go to the forum admin area and assign your forums to your category/s.
Done.
Hi Ateale,
Which script did you use cos the one i found to convert it did not work for me?
thanks.
Well, in this case I am calling the header file from wordpress on the bbpress pages. The only problem is that I have things in the bbpress header like
bb_is_user_logged_in()
and
is_topic()
which create tons of problems when I put that code in the wp header file. I was able to load wp when bbpress loads, but it seems like the opposite would also be useful, to register bbpress when wp loads. I suppose through reverse engineering, I could figure that out on my own?! Otherwise, I would like to just be able to tell the page, “Hey, are you wordpress, then load this…otherwise, don’t load it. And if your BBPress, then load this, otherwise don’t load it”.
Currently I am also trying to specify which stylesheets to load. If it’s wp, I want the wp stylesheet, and if it’s bb, I want the bb stylesheet, and I don’t want the conflicts when both load.
1 – Does this make sense?
B – Is there a solution? and
4 – Am I overlooking a more obvious solution?

What kind of content are you trying to distinguish between? Theme content or actual content? With wordpress being a blog and bbPress a forum, the content itself would be different. I guess I don’t quite understand exactly what you are trying to do. Could you explain to me like I am 5 years old (my wife says I act that old anyways 
Trent
Ok, I am trying to serve up content based on whether a user is on the WP side of my site, or on the BB side. Trent, you helped me with this earlier, but you helped me find a much more common sense solution to the problem in that situation.
Here’s what I’m wondering: Is there any way to say “if bbpress” then do this, or “if wordpress” then do this? I can’t seem to find the code I need to tell wordpress AND bbpress to both understand and accept this discrimination. Thanks
Ron
