Sorry, I just meant, where are the forum, WPMU and TXP all installed?

Is it like?

/home/aless/public_html/forum/ for bbPress

/home/aless/public_html/txp/ for TXP

/home/aless/public_html/wpmu/ for WPMU

Can you verify that all the files made it up when you uploaded them? Like, when you FTP in, can you get a listing in the forum folder that looks like:

bb-admin

bb-cache

bb-edit.php

bb-images

bb-includes

bb-load.php

bb-login.php

bb-post.php

bb-reset-password.php

bb-settings.php

bb-templates

config.php

edit.php

favorites.php

forum.php

index.php

my-plugins

my-templates

profile-base.php

profile-edit.php

profile.php

register.php

rss.php

search.php

sitemap.bb.xml

statistics.php

tag-add.php

tag-remove.php

tags.php

topic-resolve.php

topic.php

view.php

Maybe something is missing there? (you might not have my-templates or my-plugins – those were created later)

Does the bb-includes directory have permissions of 0755 or

drwxr-xr-x ?

Yeah, I needed about 80 megs of memory for this particular script, luckily my host upped it while I ran it.

jaim3, perhaps note that somewhere in a readme, for the not-so-smart users like myself.

Hi, I seem to be having a problem. I am in the odd position of running textpattern for my main site, 2 WPMU’s in 2 different directories and BBPress in another directory which may have something to do with it, so just in case I thought I’d throw that out there first. I just ran my ftp client and uploaded for the new WPMU, txp and bbpress. Everything went stellar with WPMU & TXP and I thought everything went well with BBPress. No such luck. Going to the url (http://alessandrapalmer.org/forum/) turned up this:

Warning: main(/home/aless/public_html/forum/bb-includes/db-mysqli.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/aless/public_html/forum/bb-settings.php on line 56

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/aless/public_html/forum/bb-includes/db-mysqli.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/aless/public_html/forum/bb-settings.php on line 56

Any ideas? Thanks!

Yeah, I’m not sure why, but while I was talking with GaMerZ on Live Messenger, he said my blog spit out an error:

failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/blah/username/public_html/wp-content/plugins/

bbpress-integration.php on line 28

I had opened that file, and that was the line .. Not really sure what, or why it was doing that, but.. after I fixed that line.. GaMerZ said there wasn’t anymore errors displaying..

/I never seen that error on my site, but some how he did lol..

We have a bbPress docs (codex) in the works and that will be something that we can expect early this year. Right now, it is just getting all these projects rolled out. bbPress has only ‘officially’ been released for a couple of months now!

The goal is to release the plugin page again maybe as early as next week. It will allow people to upload their plugins to the main depository. All stats will be kept on the plugin including downloads. The process will be creating an account on the plugins page, submitting your plugin for authorization and then an admin will OK the plugin and create your login for you.

The other goal will be to have a WP widget to show the link, stats and info on a plugin on our own sites. Pretty neat stuff! I would imagine the same could happen for bbPress forums!

It will make more sense when it is open I guess!

Well here is the plugin page: http://bbpress.org/plugins/

Will this page also be released as a plugin so we can add this page to our own bbrpess and post our own plugins/downloads?

I for 1 would really have this page so I can let people download my plugins from my bbpress site.

[spencerp]

Also, please note! If you’re running WordPress version 2.1 alphaX, or now it’s in Beta state, and you have the bbPress Integration plugin going on it..

find this line:

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/registration-functions.php’ );

change it to this:

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/registration.php’ );

(The devs renamed the file in the includes/ directory for 2.1)

This is probably the main cause of these errors.. Also, we’d better make sure of any other bbPress plugins using that first call to the /registration-functions.php file.. and change accordingly..

This is for 2.1 alphaX, and now 2.1-betaX users only!!

[Trent Adams]

Why not run an absolute path?

require_once(/var/www/html/mysite_function.php);

Does that work?

If it is root bbPress folder, you could use what is in config.php

require_once( BBPATH . 'mysite_function.php' );

Should be pretty easy……?

Trent

On my site, I have a file of general purpose functions in the site root called “mysite_functions.php.” I have WordPress installed in /wordpress, and bbPress installed in /wordpress/bbpress. I have altered wp_setcookie() and wp_clearcookie() in a WordPress plugin. In those two functions, I use require_once('../mysite_functions.php');, and then the function call. It works fine.

The problem comes in the bbPress plugins. I have a plugin overriding bb_login() and bb_logout(). In each of those functions I use the exact same code to call mysite_functions.php, but I get “failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [file path] [line number]”

In either case, the functions are unchanged with the exception of appending:

require_once("../mysite_functions.php");

call_my_function();

[willdayble]

Alrighty, just to be a dumbarse, I’d love to use this plugin but I’ve NO idea how to do the “Upgrade the installation of bbPress to the latest version from the code repository” bit.

I’ve recently migrated from phpBB over to BBpress, with all my posts and topics thankfully intact… but I’ve some forums I need to hide.

Is there no way to hide forums based on the user level at all?

[spencerp]

For me, as well as Trent because we are WP and BB integrated.. for some reason in the USERS section of the WP-ADMIN panel, for the user’s email addy, it displays “1” as well..

Any thoughts on this? Any possible way to fix this.. or will the fix that you provide above work, Trent? Meaning, once we’d do that fix you gave above, the user’s email addy will then show in the WP-ADMIN => USERS email addy box…

Either way though, this CORE HACK would have to be applied after each bbPress upgrade though!.. (Unless of course, there were no changes to that file between releases).. I’ve been getting the SVN commits lately, and I think it was one that was “changed”.. so.. please keep this mind too!

arden, here’s what’s in the config file:

$bb->domain = 'http://navfm.org';

$bb->path = '/bbpress/'

Is that what you mean?

[ardentfrost]

since I use the function bb_get_option('uri') to build the link, I have no clue why it would be showing up as /forums instead of /bbpress for you. I assume it’s correct in your config.php file?

[Trent Adams]

Make it simple for now until Ardenfrost can answer! Change that line to:

<li class="view"><a href="http://navfm.org/bbpress/mlist.php">Member List</a></li>

Just add in your actual URL (hardcode it!)

Trent

[Trent Adams]

I would go to front-page.php and check that the code you entered for the link is /bbpress/mlist.php and not /forum/mlist.php because you would of had to enter the link yourself.

Trent

[yogaboat]

eeek. me again. I have bbpress installed in a folder called ‘bbpress’ (not ‘forum’) in my root directory. (Site is here: http://navfm.org/bbpress) The members link shows up fine in the Views list, but takes me to this error:

“The requested URL /forums/mlist.php was not found on this server.”

I do have pretty permalinks enabled, if that matters. I tried to find where it calls the /forums directory in the plugin files but don’t know what I’m looking for exactly.

[devils_advocate]

How difficult or different is it to update the bbPress version [from .72 to .73] if I’ve got it embedded/integrated with in WP [2.04] and not lose the 200+ members info logins etc…?

Mbyte has released 0.4! Check out the information on his download page:

bbPress Post 0.4 Download Page

The main plugin page located here

[Trent Adams]

You uploaded the files to the right place! bbPress will try and see if a file is located in those 2 directories before defaulting back to the bb-templates/ directory!

As for the link to thte member list page, most people have been adding that in their ‘views’ section of front-page.php. Copy front-page.php from /bb-templates/, edit the file to include the link, re-upload into my-templates/

That way, if it doesn’t work (the way you edited it), you can delete front-page.php from my-templates and bbPress will use the original again in bb-templates! Nice eh!

On my server I have a subdirectory called “forums” and the my- folders went into that directory. That’s the same directory I unzipped the bbpress files to. Other folders in that directory are bb-admin, bb-cache, bb-images, etc…

I put my link in the file front-page.php in my-templates (it’s initial home is bb-templates, you have to copy it over into my-templates and change it). I just stuck it under the “Views” section (you can see the result on http://www.rayd.org/forums/ but you have to login) or you can do what Spencer did and put it in your header so the link can be seen on every page (you can see that on http://spencerp.net/forums/ and you don’t even have to login). The only thing about putting it in the header is you need to surround it with div tags and using css to place it.

[yogaboat]

Hi – I downloaded v.73c of this plugin and have a couple of questions about directories and where to put the link.

1. I created a my-plugins and a my-templates directory in the root of my bbpress directory, and uploaded the files as directed in the README file. Is that correct, or do those new my- directories go someplace else?

2. Into which file would I insert the link to the member list?

Thanks for your patience with this bbpress newb.

[thomasklaiber]

This is just something a lot easyer to do. It requires just a small plugin, I’ll make one for this, ok?

The posts since last visit plugin is getting a bit more complicated then I thought. I’m doing it as plugin for my onlinelist plugin, cause I think doing this database driven is better … so you can view the posts since your last visit anywhere.

If you want to see how it looks like at the moment, go to

http://la-school.com/bbpress/ (Test / test) … not sure if you can really try it

[Mistainu]

i’ve already eMailed the UTW author (i hope she notices), perhaps we’ll get a future version of UTW that “realizes” and integrates the bbpress tags as well? (hopes…)
