actually, the display_name and user_nicename columns already exist in the bb_users table in bbpress.

So my question is still, how come they are not used? Is there a plan for using them later and have they been added already for future use in accordance with what I wrote in my first post above?

Thanks for any info on this.

I have the cpanel… is there anything I can do? Or should I just paste my .htaccess file here… Oh Gurus please help me … (I now could write a screenplay on my adventures in bbPress…)

[wizbor]

Ok after a few more trys, I got it to load. I think I might have had a carriage return (ha, they still use that term?) in the cut and pasting. Now the work to get them to match begins. I need to now get info from the bb_header file into the front-page.

Thanks.

You should probably have the www. pages redirect to the other pages.

Failing that, you can follow the advice I gave here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/113?replies=3

You’ll need to change the cookie information for both WP and bb.

It WORKED!!!!!!!!!

changing home and siteurl to http://passionforcinema.com worked like that!

Question and possible problem…

Some of my authors may use http://www.passionforcinema.com to log in. I tried it. In this case http://passionforcinema.com/bbpress does not recoginze them (same problem as earlier)

Is there a solution, where bbPress recognizes my authors who have logged in on passionforcinema with or without a “www.” in front.

How can I resolve this issue (beside ofcourse asking my fellow authors to type only http://passionforcinema.com and noT http://www.passionforcinema.com)

[wizbor]

Yes right at the top right after <?php

The congfig.php file at the bottom where it asks about wp intigration also has a statement.

//define(‘WP_BB’, true); When I uncokmmented that it failed so I changed WP_BB to wp_bb and it worked. I’ve set up the wp url and siteurl as well. This all works.

So when I added your code to the top I’ve tried all combinations, that is, lowercase, commenting out the define(‘WP_BB’, true); at the bottom of the config file etc.

Thanks for responding!

Okay, first thing’s first… if this is the forum on the bbPress site itself, it really needs to be a bit more of a better example. As it is, when I get to the forum I’m first faced with a giant tagcloud, then I have to scroll all the way down past a huge list of posts to get to the actual individual forums such as this one. Of course, I could hit the button to start a new topic at the top of the top of the page but not only is that counterintuitive, it’s a really bad idea in general that will get people just Pcoming in and posting without looking at other posts first. I’d hoped the layout would have been changed by now at least.

Second problem, and this is one I’ve had on the wordpress forums as well but never bothered to ask about it. At the bottom of the post box it lists allowed tags (shortly after mentioning “Enter a few words (called tags)” with a link to the tagcloud rather than a definition of tags), but what gets me is “Put code in between backticks.” I’ve been running forums since before ISPs could offer residential Internet connections and yet I have absolutely no clue what that means. Unless this software is only meant for WordPress users (which I’m one of, btw), it would be best to get a bit more accessible to ordinary people in terms of language/jargon.

My other large beef is that the forums read like blog comments rather than forum discussions. Threading would be my number one request if I intended to use it. I guess my number two request would be integrating said threaded comments into the comments section of blog entries for those using it with a WP blog, though that’s a lot more complicated. I’d want to start off with the other way around by having the blog able to automatically display posts from certain sections such as Announcements and such. I’m not sure if that functionality exists yet, so apologies if it does. If not, I suppose a workaround could be reading the rss feed from that section into the blog section, but aggregating your own feeds is a fairly silly notion.

That’s it for initial feedback right now. I may come take another look when the software has matured a bit… by that I mean the core, it shouldn’t have to depend on plugins and themes to have very basic funcionality on its own.

Ps. Oh, and I’ve had strange issues logging in here on two seperate occasions.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

require_once(‘/home/dental/public_html/wp-blog-header.php’);

define(‘WP_BB’, true);

Where are you putting that? It should be the very first thing in bbPress config.php

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

did you define WP_BB in bbPress’ config.php file?

If so, you must also

require_once(‘/path/to/wp-config.php’);

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

In addition to editing bbPress’ cookie information, you will have to edit WordPress’:

for both bbPress and WordPress

the domain should be .salatti.net (note the first .)

the path should be /

So in bbPress’ config.php:

$bb->cookiedomain = ‘.salatti.net’;

$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;

in WordPress’ wp-config.php:

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.salatti.net’);

define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

define(‘SITECOOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

Let us know how it works.

Just login to your db using phpMyAdmin and delete all bbpress related database I think it should start with “bb_”

[marky]

You can search here: https://bbpress.org/forums/search.php

(I have no idea why there isn’t a link to that page from the main page, or even in the main bbPress theme, but that’s a different topic altogether.

As far as I understand, to uninstall and re-install you’d only have to drop the tables from the database. Unless you changed the template files or something, I don’t think you’d need to delete any of the files.

Nevermind. I think I found it.

Tried this again, but still the same error This time I even used a text editor for coding, so I could see if there was something wrong.

Not only is bbPress not able to get my WP Login, but when I register as an independent user, even that username password does not allow me to get into bbPress. Could this be my url problem?

my blog is at passionforcinema.com

bbpress is located at root level of the folder bbpress

Now I have two blogs on this server. The root – public_html leads to my other blog DT. At this level is a folder call passionforcinema-com within which is WP contents for my second blog (with a direct url passionforcinema.com)… I’m kind of confused so thought maybe I’ve messed something up because of this structure and the config.php may need different values than what I’ve inserted (as above)

PHP Warning: rawurlencode() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/spider/public_html/wp/wp-includes/classes.php on line 1658

Well i have that problem when i integrate my bbpress with wordpress. It only happen when i view “manage->post” and “manage->pages”. I already edit the classes.php and it only fix my “manage->post”. My “manage->pages” are still broken.

If i disable the integration, everything work perfectly without any error. Anyone know how to fix this thing?

So I just installed the latest version of bbpress (0.72) and followed these steps: http://www.devlounge.net/articles/the-ultimate-bbpress-guide and when I got to http://www.abunchofcars.com/forum/, I get: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: __() in /home/abunchof/public_html/forum/bb-settings.php on line 93

I tripled checked my config.php file and all appears fine…not sure what I’m doing wrong?

[lingmiester]

Hi,

I have a forum running on phpbb2.

I’ve reciently got bbpress set up and running in a breeze! So I am wondering if I can transfer all my databases of posts and users from my phpbb2 site into bbpress, so my users can just login agian, rather than re-register? Also I like to migrate all my posts as well.

[zapata]

Installed bbPress but upon using my admin login I’m not able to.

Here are some settings that I did in config file:

$bb->domain = ‘http://passionforcinema.com&#8217;;

$bb->path = ‘/bbpress/’; – the folder in my root directory

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’;

$bb->wp_home = ‘passionforcinema.com’;

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘passionforcinema.com’;

Also can I hide a forum from general readers? I would prefer simply the authors of the blog to be able to view and access the forum.

How can I block independent registration to the forum.

after i install my bbpress, its like this (all white, just like no CSS) i dont know why~~

[wizbor]

First let me say what a breeze to install and intigrate. I didnot even realize it was integrated untill I noticed while logged into WP admin I brought up the forum in another tab and was logged in there too! Nice job.

Ok now to my question, Im trying to get the forum to look like wp, in my cae its http://dentalceramics.com and http://dentalceramics.com/forums. Like what youve done with this site.

My problem is that every time I try and ad

<?php

require_once(‘/home/dental/public_html/wp-blog-header.php’);

define(‘WP_BB’, true);

I get a crash. Interestingly though define(‘WP_BB’, true); works under the last section of the config.php file but only as define(‘wp_bb’,true); Its how its defined now.

So my thouht is do I need to even do this? Can I just start adding wp tags tp my bb_template files? If so what should for example <?php bb_get_header(); ?> be changed to in the front-page.php file if this is the way to go about it.

Many thanks,

Rob

Oh, sorry no access to my error log files which is a real bummer for stuff like this to help.

[n22]

i remark that my bbpress doesnt likes normaly, its all white:
