I don’t want the permalinks on my forum. If you need to test it with them on, then maybe Spencer will (Here is the link for directions).

https://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/

I would assume be the one test without permalinks on if I could!

Thanks,

It would be great if I could stop “bozos” that register in my bbPress forum from being moved over to WordPress when using the bbpress-integration plugin located at:

http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/438

Anyone have an idea how to put a check in for Bozo users not being added?

Currently the bbPress (in its infancy) does not have facility to save options and preferences in the database. This plugin creates and manages the options database in bbPress.

The will give facility to other plugins and hacks to store the preferences in database and retrieve it on the fly. The plugin also gives a common admin panel where small preference for plugins can be accesses from. the panel can be accessed by going to

Admin » Site Management » Site Options.

Yes, there is a plugin for this purpose:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/283

It displays online users only, not visitors.

Thanks

I think private messages is another big factor keeping people away. I’ve been working on it, but it’s a decent size task. Every new plugin I do, though, teaches me more I need to know about bbpress to get pm’s working. Doing the member list taught me some very important things. Maybe I can get it done in the next week.

[Trent Adams]

That is just a great plugin Ardentfrost! You have now just about completed off every single reason why people stay with phpBB with plugins for bbPress and opens the doors to functionality and users we didn’t have before.

Best part about plugins is that you get to choose how bloated you want your forums. That being said, I doubt having all the plugins in this forum would even hinder performance at all!

Great job!

It is a catch22 unfortunetely. Until something is written for users defining their own timezones, you have to weight which is more important to you, proper post times for a particular timezone or having all work off the server time. As most functions for bbPress are off the server time, I recommend that myself. I am lucky I host in my timezone….

I think I’ve found a solution, by searching the forums (go figure).

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/313?replies=21#post-1672

I quite like this plugin… I’m going to enable it on my forums.

I should have realized… I’m adding an action, not a filter…

[edit] OK, well I’m one step closer, kind of. I need to make a new row (?) for each new profile field.

[another edit]

I’m closer: here’s the function I need; bb_update_usermeta

[M]

Hey there, I’m trying something out here… I made a plugin called template-functions.php and I’m trying out one thing here.

If I put this line:

add_filter(

'get_profile_info_keys',

'extra_profile_info'

);

function extra_profile_info () {}

my profile info is gone, except for the username field and a password field.

I can only see the password field if I view the source… It’s not visible…

Still working on it…

edit: Oh boy, I guess the function extra_profile_info exists! Still going…

another edit:

Well now check this out:

https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset/327

10/13/05… “Hooks for extra fields”?

This is more like it!

[M]

I’m trying to add custom fields to my bbPress profile page, like deviantArt username, real name, etc. How would I go about doing this?

I was checking out some WordPress custom meta plugins, but they weren’t really cutting it.

I’m running bbPress alongside WordPress, and I’ve got the integration running just fine.

My guess is that there’s an easy way of doing this. I was picking through the bbPress functions, and there’s all kinds of good stuff available.

Thank you in advance… I must run, I have class to get to.

Eventually all.

I am trying to get BBPress to look like my WP. I created a my-templates folder and copied all the files from bb-templates. I now want to use <?php get_header(); ?> in my front_page.php file.

With regards to logins, I did not add a plugin but it seems to work already. I created a new user in WP and that same user works in BBPress. I have BBPress in a subdirectory of WP. Are the plugins still required with the newer versions?

[Trent Adams]

What are you trying to integrate? A theme, functions or logins?

Trent

[jimver74]

I am trying to integrate a BBPress site with my WP site but as soon as I add the line “require_once(dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . ‘/wp-config.php’);” to my config.php file, I get the following error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare merge_filters() (previously declared in /home/cgadmin/public_html/bbpress/bb-includes/wp-functions.php:424) in /home/cgadmin/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 1181

I am using 0.73 BBPress and WP 2.0.3

[Trent Adams]

What were you hoping to track specifically. If bbPress has the IP address of a poster, it shows up on their posts and replies. There is also a utility in the admin that can lookup last 30 posts from a particular IP through the utility of:

/bb-admin/view-ip.php

in the form of:

view-ip.php?ip=127.0.0.1

Trent

[dirkster]

Is there some way of tracking user IPs within bbpress ? Or must one revert to using the webserver logfiles ?

[ardentfrost]

I thought the secret to making a new page that is included into the bbpress fileset is to add the require_once('./bb-load.php');

However, this must not be the secret because it doesn’t let me do stuff like get_header(). On the other hand, it sees my plugin file and gets the information I want from it.

What am I doing wrong? I have a file dropped into the http root with the require_once and then requiring the work page in my-templates, but nothing inside the my-templates file works (ie. no bbpress functions in the file work).

Hi,

We’ve installed bbPress in our WordPress Turkey Forums instead of phpBB.

Now, we have the same problem..

Our server’s time is GMT -8 and our country’s (Turkey) time is GMT +2

When we set $bb->gmt_offset = -8; (server’s local time)

Frehness is ok on main page. But topics’ and posts’ times are wrong now.

When we set $bb->gmt_offset = +2; (Turkey’s local time)

Freshness is not ok, (seems like -1 years) but topics’ and posts’ times are correct now.

How can we fix it?

[so1o]

try changing

$bb->domain = 'http://www.wonderliver.com/bbpress';

$bb->path = '/';

to

$bb->domain = 'http://www.wonderliver.com';

$bb->path = '/bbpress/';

A clean install of .73 with it’s own mysql NO wordpress integration

After installing everything went fine till after logging in to do anything! The main screen is displaying just fine, but any links clicked after give the cookie issue below… and yes I have looked at the other postings but the all incorporate WP which I’m not. Regardless, I’m not refusing cookies so I’m at a loss as to why it would say this and refuse every other page but the dashboard…

Thank you for your help, the error is displayed below

Wonderliver.com/bbpress

The page isn’t redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete

@so1o: yes thats clear, but what is the difference between your plugin and the one from papercuts3’s first post?!

@trent: as a moderator you should add the new plugins here as there are already some…

https://bbpress.org/plugins/

[hdiaz]

I have installed wordpress in the main dierctory, and bbpress as a subdirectory. They are both working fine.

I read the following entry :https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/

However I would like to doble check.

“defining WP_BB as true” does it mean ..= ‘wp_bb’ ; or …= ‘true’ ; ?

and,

“define $bb->wp_home and $bb->wp_siteurl as your WordPress blog address and WordPress address, respectively.”

does it mean :

$bb->wp_home = ‘url of wp’;

and,

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘url of wp’;

Thank you!

[Trent Adams]

So10. That is beautiful! There are 4 or 5 of you that really are rocking and rolling! I will do some research here because really there are about 20-30 plugins now for bbPress bouncing around. I will try and think of a way to get them listed in one place…..

Trent

[spencerp]

I would love to see something like sub-forums implemented into bbPress earlier in the “game”. I think that would be so awesome. phpBB hasn’t even gotten to that “point” until phpBB3 beta or whatever.. lol!

I know it might not work, and function extacly like “that”, but.. atleast it’s a start of it..
