Leaving us already? I don’t think there is even an exporter for bbPress yet. If you can find a way to import into phpBB with RSS, you can just use the feeds from bbPress.

Is there a way to export the db entries from bbpress to phpbb2?
wow only 6 tickets left, and they aren’t too complexed.. perhaps a fast launch this week after all??

I was having the same issue at Forums4Bauer I am using a modified version of the bbPress forum template. One thing I did was widen the whole thing, but to get rid of the hidden long names I made the following changes to the style.css file in my-templates:
#thread {
background: #eee;
list-style: none;
margin: 0 0 0 110px;
padding: 0;
}
#thread li {
padding: 1.5em 1.0em;
line-height: 1.5em;
height:100%;
}
#thread li ol, #thread li ul {
margin-left: 60px;
height:100%;
}
.threadauthor {
margin-left: -140px;
overflow: hidden;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
}
I also added:
.threadpost {min-height:120px;}
Unfortunately that doesn’t work in IE. I’m looking for a way around a problem I’m having where short replies overlap. That’s not typically a problem, but I’m using my Graphic Display Ranks plugin, and images that are taller than some of the replies.
Hope this helps.
I wish I were a mod so I could nuke the spammers!
Lmao! I know what you mean.. Trent just isn’t always here to do it sigh.

No problem zapata. To get rid of the register link, you need to download login-form.php from /bb-templates/ and then edit it as follows:
Change this part from:
<p><?php printf(__('<a href="%1$s">Register</a> or log in'), bb_get_option('uri').'register.php') ?>:</p>
to get rid of the register, you could just comment out this line or change the wording:
<! -- <p><?php printf(__('<a href="%1$s">Register</a> or log in'), bb_get_option('uri').'register.php') ?>:</p> -->
Once you have edited that file, upload it to a new folder (if it doesn’t exist already in root) /my-templates/ as bbPress will use that file first and if it doesn’t exist, go back to the one in /bb-templates/
As for the registering with WordPress, I was only referring to the abilitity to turn on or off registration in WP admin. If you turn it off, then you can add the members you want through the admin.
That should get you going!

Trent,
Today is my bbPress Independence day. Everything seems to be working just so smoothly. Removed register.php and Voila…
two questions:
(1) What file do I have to look in to remove the “Register” link on top of the page
(2)When you mention “People can still register using WordPress” do you mean the authors or me (admin) has to do anything “beyond” what I do to register authors in the admin section of WordPress
Since you are integrated with WP (I would assume), removing register.php from bbPress root directory would get rid of that particular issue. People can still register using WordPress or just added as members by you in the WP admin. That would be the easiest way.
Trent
That’s for bbpress .74 and up

That will work.

Awesome! Thanks Sam! I’ll jump on all of this real soon. Thanks again!

Yep, and, even though Michael Adams made the newer version of the bbPress Integration plugin. Ryan Boren added two stubs in the 2.1 wp-includes/ folder, holding the same name as the original two.
So, these two calls:
require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/registration-functions.php’ );
include_once (ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/rss-functions.php’);
In any WordPress or bbPress plugins, you’ll still be safe! Inside those two stubs are:
registration-functions.php file:
<?php
// Deprecated. Use registration.php.
require_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . '/registration.php');
?>
rss-functions.php file:
<?php
// Deprecated. Use rss.php instead.
require_once (ABSPATH . WPINC . '/rss.php');
?>
Happy 2.1 Upgrading and bbPress Integrating peoples..

Just gotta put in my 2 cents. I know it’s not bbpress, but my son, Noah Darwin, has a wordpress blog … though it’s a bit out of date. And he’s only 15 months old.

I use the new site option plugin (which is easy and great by the way). I stole the admin page setup from private forums by Aditya Naik. My bbress board is tiny (testing only) so I imagine all sorts of stuff will pop up as it’s used on bigger sites. Thanks for your help.
The issue will be because the user that you have as an Administrator in WP is not the keymaster in bbPress. What you can do is check out the following:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/462?replies=4#post-2607
There is some good information in there on getting the account that is the admin in WordPress to also be the Keymaster (admin) in bbPress.

I have my wordpress and my bbpress installed and working together fine. The only problem is that I can reach my wordpress admin panel, but not the bbpress one. The deal I think is that there is some info missing from the wp_users table that makes it so bbpress can use it. Could anyone tell me how to fix this without having to re-install the entire thing.
i think it could be because I’m on 2.04 WP and 0.75 bbpress?
Now that WordPress has released 2.1, just a quick note to all the current users and future users that bbPress integrates fine with WordPress 2.1.

New patch for categories posted in the ticketing system. Patch for build 641.

I followed all of these instructions to integrate WP theme into BB. When I attempt to login I get these errors:

spencerp – i would be curious how you got bbpress into your active WordPress theme. i am working to do the same as you, but any help would be appreciated.
thanks

I’m working on a revised patch file for categories to accommodate the latest builds with the new templating file structure. Although it seems to be just me and spencerp who are using it. Of course, if you are customising your templates, then you will still have to edit your own based on the changes to the default theme.
