Thanks. Don’t know why I didn’t think of that before. Ah well. (I edited my web site in my profile to use that link so I’ll have a link for it on this site. Perhaps I’ll link to it from my BB too. )

Atsutane: Thanks so much for your help!! I really appreciate it

[Atsutane]

U can use this https://bbpress.org/forums/search.php

[Atsutane]

From what i see. I think it only css problem and some html problem. It seem before <div id=”footer”> u got 1 extra </div> … well i think so Anyway i need to go now. Good luck with your bbpress

[fuknrekd]

It’s getting pretty busy here pretty quickly and hard to find what you’re looking for. Tags help and are pretty cool, but limited to what others have put there.

Would it be possible for you guys to add a search box here?

Thanks!

OK, so I keep getting closer Atsutane, I don’t use K2 unfortunately

http://www.macuserblog.com/boards/ is where I’m at now. Is the remaining problem CSS or PHP-related? Thanks again!

[Atsutane]

For me i put inside footer.php after i close all div that hold my forum content. If u are k2 user maybe i can share my header.php and footer.php

[tgpuckett]

OK, I can follow that, where do I need to put get_sidebar()? In the header?

[Atsutane]

I do like this. In header.php i put

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div something>

<div something>

Inside footer.php i put

</div> // close something div

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

</div> // close something div

<?php get_footer(); ?>

When u put “<?php get_header; get_sidebar(); get_footer(); ?>” all inside header.php that mean u load all ur header, sidebar and footer before u load ur content

try:

// ** MySQL settings ** //

define('BBDB_NAME', 'n22_n22');

define('BBDB_USER', 'n22_n22');

define('BBDB_PASSWORD', '123456');

define('BBDB_HOST', 'db2.awardspace.com');

$bb_table_prefix = 'bb_';

$bb->domain = 'http://n22.awardspace.com';

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

$bb->name = 'N22 Forums';

// This must be set before running the install script!!!

$bb->admin_email = 'haiyuezhang@hotmail.com';

// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.

$bb->mod_rewrite = 'true';

[tgpuckett]

OK, in my header.php file I have <?php get_header; get_sidebar(); get_footer(); ?>. Everything is OK, but now bbPress is shoved below the WP theme. Is this a theme problem or a CSS problem? How can I fix it? I really appreciate all the help you’ve offered Atsutane! It’s much appreciated.

[Atsutane]

To center it u need to play with css .. try look into default bbpress style.css and see which code u can use to suit your theme

[metavalent]

Double quotes is also inconsistent with the rest of config.php, which uses single quotes, throughout. I still can’t tell if Aksimet is working because when I go to the Content area of the Admin panel at http://mysite.com/bbpress/bb-admin/admin-base.php?plugin=bb_ksd_admin_page

all I get is the bbPress footer logo stuff.

[tgpuckett]

Yeah that’s kind of confusing…..Really the only problem now is bbPress is not centered in the page as it should be, it’s on the left-hand side. How can I fix this?

[Atsutane]

Well maybe u can imagine like this. Inside your bbpress template, all file (not included header.php and footer.php) equal to your normal WP post. So u need to set up header.php and footer.php to be like ur WP index.php theme file.

To make it short. Cut your WP theme index.php into 3 part. 1 for bbpress header.php, 1 for bbpress footer.php and one for your post a.k.a other bbpress template file.

Sorry if my word confusing you. But i donno how to explain it .

mdawaffe asked:

Did you put the .htaccess file in the forums directory?

I guess I could have missed it, but I didn’t see anything talking about .htaccess during the basic install process. This looks like yet another item for the 1, 2, 3 Install List. I sooo appreciate the desire to keep this SIMPLE, SIMPLE, SIMPLE but if a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 process would actually cover everything, that would be effectively more simple than a three-stepper that leaves out just enough to throw folks a tiny bit off track. Just my 2 cents.

[tgpuckett]

Atsutane:

Ok, now header.php only includes: <?php get_header() ?> and nothing else. It looks better now. How do I get the sidebar, etc to move over? I want it to be completely seamless. Thanks so much for your help so far!

[Atsutane]

tgpuckett,

it seem to me u put get_header(); inside header.php without removing all the original content

[talkaboutdesign]

i got this to work fine, check out http://www.talkaboutdesign.com/forum/

I’m also working on modifying the theme, and will be releasing a download for it in a near future.

[tgpuckett]

OK, so I’ve done that, and it looks kind of muddled. How can I get bbPress to ingore it’s own stylesheets and just get all the info from WP’s theme?

I just found and installed bbPress today. I was surprised at how well it went. Now I am familiarizing myself with it currently I have two oddities that I do not understand. I tried looking at the docs but they seem limited at the time. Please feel free to direct me if I am mistaken.

1) users registered for -1 year. both of my users registered today have this. Seems odd. I can’t find anywhere to manipulate this

2) weird stats. Below is what it says in my dashboard

* Posts per day: 44.132

* Topics per day: 11.033

* Registrations per day: 22.066

* Forums started 2 hours ago.

I tried doing a post recount thinking it may reset this.

any ideas?

thanks

peiqinglong’s clarification:

First off, I would go back to the beginning. Delete all the bbpress files that you put into your WP directory. Then create a sub directory inside of WP, bbpress, or something. Put all of bbpress in there.

Should be included on the 1, 2, 3 Step Installation Page, which should read:

1. Unzip to a sub directory of WP e.g., ‘bbpress’. This will become part of your forum URL http://yourcoolsite.com/bbpress/.
2. Copy config-sample.php to config.php and fill in the necessary details.
3. Load bb-admin/install.php and do what it tells you.

Let basking be the RESULT of the process, rather than hogging up 33% of the 1, 2, 3 process.

[tgpuckett]

OK I’ll try it without. Thanks
