I assume ergate means this: https://bbpress.org/plugins/

Continued from my previous post: oddly enough, once my bbPress tables were imported into WordPress, also all of my WordPress registered identifiers were erased from their postings. In addition, I no longer have Administrator access to my WordPress login… weird. With all facts presented, their is logic and also non logical facts.

what?

Hello,

I’m trying to install bbPress on an IIS 6 server.

The installation script appears to have completed successfully and can be viewed at the following URL:

http://www.med.cam.ac.uk/confocal/forums

Unfortunately, there appear to be a few problems with the installation as follows:

1) When clicking on “Your first topic” in Firefox, I receive the following error:

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

Browsing the link in IE 7 just appears to hang the browser

2) The admin home page appears to work, but n closer inspection the shortcuts “Dashboard, Users, Content and Site Management” all have incorrect paths:

“http://www.med.cam.ac.uk/forums/bb-admin/index.php”

instead of

http://www.med.cam.ac.uk/confocal/forums/bb-admin/index.php

I think my config.php is ok:

$bb->domain = ‘http://www.med.cam.ac.uk/confocal’;

$bb->path = ‘/forums/’;

$bb->mod_rewrite = false;

Does anybody have any ideas that may help me (other than move the forum to Apache that is!).

TIA

Dave

Continued from my previous post: I chose identifier Robert Richard (space) in bbPress (Administrator during Running Installer) and the same identifier existed within WordPress; end results, bbPress replace Robert Richard within WordPress that became RobertRichard (no space).

Previous to the bbPress integration attempts, I use to login WordPress with Blogue (identifier) and password; but all WordPress posts were identified as Robert Richard (space) to visitors. This said, I’m not sure if you would call Robert Richard within WordPress as an identifier.

Agop,

дело не в тестовой эксплуатации, а в том, что нужно заставить bbpress пользоваться таблицей wp_users самого wordpress. Для программиста это не проблема должна быть…

[Sonika]

Agop,

я переводила форум на русский сама непосредственно в файлах, поэтому — ну какая ему, bbpress, разница? А Вы, прежде чем анонсировать локализацию, сначала бы сами ее до ума довели.

I translated a forum on Russian itself directly in files. You announced russian localization but It does not work correctly.

I use my own theme for worpdress. Any body can help me about my problem?

[Atsutane]

nolageek,

Disable your Ultimate tag warrior Im also using k2 and had to disable UTW.

If u really want to use UTW, u need to edit bbpress code to replace the existing is_tag function

I already told mdawaffe about this problem. Donno if they want to change is_tag function name to something else

[hanbit]

to tekhawk

why they cannot work with my bbpress when clicking on the icons ?

i add the sentence

[agop]

It occurs because of localization. But it is lack itself bbPress. I hope it will be corrected in the following versions.

«What steps did you take? Did you install bbPress in another database or did you install it again in the current database that WordPress is at. »

I did install bbPress in another database or by itself… separate from WordPress database.

«If you installed in another database and then exported out the bb_ prefix tables and imported them in the database with the wp_ prefix tables, nothing should have happened to WordPress.»

Yes, it’s what my web host support that did the export/import… the exact same steps you instructed me to do or as shown above: export bbPress tables, then import bbPress to WordPress. It seems that I’ve use the same identifier or username (Robert Richard) for the bbPress as it already existed within WordPress (Robert Richard)… both database had the same Admin username or identifier.

«Either way, nothing should have happened to WordPress because bbPress uses the login information from WordPress, not vice-versa.»

I’m not sure of about «either way», but I will ask my web host help desk to re-install backups and start over again with a different identifier or username.

«When I installed bbPress, I chose the ‘key master’ as an account that isn’t the admin in WordPress. That is a pain because I have to login as 1 user to administer bbPress and logout and login as another user to administer WordPress. Of course, I figured all this out after importing my phpBB posts.»

I’m figuring out this stuff hands on and by having you as a support. It seems logical to have a different identifier; I thought about it afterwards. Regretfully, I don’t have the formal training with database and tables to have predicted this dynamic. Luckily, bbPress.org has you.

Thanks a million.

Hi

Interesting times. Made my first attempt at integrating bbPress.

Installation went fine and I can login as Admin, my bbPress entry page comes up ok growthlounge.com/forum

But the big problem is when I come to click on anything. It is the same outcome every time – a grey screen with nothing on.

This happened both when I attempted to integrate with WordPress, but also when I completely reinstalled without any attempt to integrate.

Here are some of the particulars:

define(‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘wordpressgl’); // The name of the database

define(‘BBDB_USER’, ‘wordpressgl’); // Your MySQL username

define(‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘xxxxxxx’); // …and password

define(‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘mysql.growthlounge.com’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

$bb->domain = ‘http://growthlounge.com’;

$bb->path = ‘/forum/’;

$bb->mod_rewrite = true;

$bb->wp_table_prefix = false; // WordPress table prefix. Example: ‘wp_’;

$bb->wp_home = false; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash

$bb->wp_siteurl = false; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash

WordPress is installed at http://growthlounge.com

Wordpress blog is setup to operate from http://growthlounge.com/blog/

However, the problem shouldn’t be WordPress integration, as I’ve made no attempt to do this the 2nd time round.

Any ideas guys? No problems during installation but a completely unfunctioning site….

Cheers

Max

Robert,

What steps did you take? Did you install bbpress in another database or did you install it again in the current database that WordPress is at. If you installed in another database and then exported out the bb_ prefix tables and imported them in the database with the wp_ prefix tables, nothing should have happened to WordPress. Either way, nothing should have happened to wordpress because bbpress uses the login information from WordPress, not vice-versa. When I installed bbpress, I chose the ‘key master’ as an account that isn’t the admin in WordPress. That is a pain because I have to login as 1 user to administer bbpress and logout and login as another user to administer WordPress. Of course, I figured all this out after importing my phpBB posts…..

[Sonika]

Atsutane,

I follow your instructions “integrate wp with bbpress” and I do it!

But now I have problems with editing profile when I login in.

I press “edit profile” and it does not work! So I cannot change my password and my user info.

Can u help me?

[grafisch-vormgever]

if i do delete that entry in my database i get this error on my page

bbPress database error: [Unknown column ‘meta_key’ in ‘field list’]

SELECT meta_key, meta_value FROM wp_usermeta WHERE user_id = ‘1’

bbPress database error: [Unknown column ‘meta_key’ in ‘where clause’]

SELECT * FROM wp_usermeta WHERE user_id = ‘1’ AND meta_key = ‘bb_capabilities’

bbPress database error: [Unknown column ‘meta_key’ in ‘field list’]

INSERT INTO wp_usermeta ( user_id, meta_key, meta_value ) VALUES ( ‘1’, ‘bb_capabilities’, ‘a:1:{s:6:”member”;b:1;}’ )

Care to share on how you created this section?

Looks like a modified bbpress install.

Ratings are from a plugin, but how about the “ReadMore” feature and other differences?

Thanks

[worrypascanada]

Continued from my previous memo : all of my WordPress identifiers or users names have disappeared (empty) from their posts and comments… as if they never existed. In addition, all of my WordPress posts and comments are now using my new bbPress identifier (moderator/administrator).

[worrypascanada]

Hello again Trent,

I’ve done all the steps you’ve suggested in your previous post, including export/import. My web host help desk has provided me the support. The only problem, I can longer access existing and previous WordPress Administrator access. It’s solely bbPress Admin that has access to WordPress as a regular user. What do you suggest? My web host has made a backups, so did I on a regular basis, then don’t worry about reverting back to previous WordPress settings.

Robert.

Most likely you forgot to set pretty permalink. https://bbpress.org/documentation/faq/#pretty-permalinks

[ear1grey]

Personally I’d be wary of hosting anonymous posts, due to the guaranteed spam-tidal-wave that would eventually arrive, but I know people who share your justified lazyness regarding the frighteningly bureaucratic “registering”.

See also: Combined Register + Post, which might describe a happy middle ground.

hi,

I installed a bbpress with the wordpress integration. But when I access one topic like:

http://localhost/wordpress/bbpress/topic/1?replies=1

the browser display:

404 Not Found

The requested URL /bbpress/topic/1?replies=1 does not exist.

I don’t know how the bbpress front page works, so I cann’t find the real page the url above specify. Can someone give me some guids or any document about it. I browered and searched this site and found nothing about it.

Thanks

I integrating my blog with bbpress and when I add require_once('z:/home/test2.ru/www/wp-blog-header.php'); in config.php some buttons in bbpress forum don’t work — ADD NEW» and edit profile

Any ideas?

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

davemerwin,

This post will help with WPMU integration https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/77

Please let us know.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Those roadmap numbers don’t mean much this early in bbPress’ life.

That said 0.74 will probably be released late this week or early next.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

talkaboutdesign,

What version of bbPress are you using and have you setup Pretty Permalinks?
