To achieve integration between 0.9.05 & WordPress 2.7.1, I overwrite the bb_capabilities in wp_usermeta for my user by sql query as I don’t have phpmyadmin and I am using custom table prefixes.

I’m at a loss why you would have to do that anyway… I’ve never heard of anyone having to go in via SQL and making those changes except in the case of ‘reverse’ integration (where by you started with bbPress and are now adding on a WP site). In theory, if you’re starting with everything brand new, you just do WP first and then bb and it should work.

Looking at your doc, you also mention changing the wp_ prefix to rocking_ which is totally fine, but later on you have this:

Add these two lines in bb-config.php

$bb->custom_user_table = 'wp_users';

$bb->custom_user_meta_table = 'wp_usermeta';

Those too should be rocking_users and rocking_metadata

Hi massbase,

the code from Ohna “(bb_is_user_logged_in())” works perfect in my installation. No more problems with that.

Use this in header :

<?php

// URL location of your feed

$feedUrl = "http://feeds2.feedburner.com/ashfameblog?format=xml";

// Replace the above URL with yours

$feedContent = "";



// Fetch feed from URL

$curl = curl_init();

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, $feedUrl);

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 3);

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, true);

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);



// FeedBurner requires a proper USER-AGENT...

curl_setopt($curl, CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1, true);

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_ENCODING, "gzip, deflate");

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092417 Firefox/3.0.3");



$feedContent = curl_exec($curl);

curl_close($curl);

?>

Use this to show :

<?php

$count=0;

// Did we get feed content?

if($feedContent && !empty($feedContent))

{

$feedXml = @simplexml_load_string($feedContent);

if($feedXml)

{

?>

<ul>

<?php foreach($feedXml->channel->item as $item): if($count==6) { break; } ?>

<li><a href="<?php echo $item->link; ?>"><?php echo $item->title; ?></a></li>

<?php $count++; endforeach; ?>

</ul>

<?php }} ?>

Hi all,

is this a function from bbPress 1.0 Release Candidate? In 0.9.0.5 it seems not to work:

"Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_user_logged_in() in ../forum/bb-templates/scoun/front-page.php on line 3"

[Joseph]

martenk, thanks so much. That plugin was what I was looking for. AMAZINGLY easy!

Here it is again for anyone that just wants to be able to create a page in the admin that links to the blog without editing the core files (which wouldn’t be fun to think about when you update).

Hi, I would like to display forum on wordpress page, and i used a gerink post, but when i put that code:

$bb->WP_BB = true;

if (file_exists(‘../wp-blog-header.php’))

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

else

if (file_exists(‘../../wp-blog-header.php’))

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

In to the top of my bb-config.php file, i just can not login in to the bbpress. I try to create new account, but effect is the same. When I click “Log in >>” , the site is only refresh, and I still can only log in.

I have wp 2.8 and bbpress 0.9.0.5.

[John James Jacoby]

Try

<?php if (is_user_logged_in()) {

?>

HTML

<?php } ?>

[admesser]

I used the Pages Links To plugin and it works perfectly for my needs I am going to give my forums a different feel from the website. Thanks!

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Yes. And it’s mentioned all over

Try removing define('WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION', 1); from your bb-config.php file.

[timskii]

For Gravatars:

echo bb_get_avatar( bb_get_current_user_info( ‘id’ ), 32 )

Where 32 is the pixel size of the Gravatar.

(That’s 1.0 code… not sure about 0.9.)

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

On Nginx, I am using this for WordPress

# WordPress pretty URLs: (as per dominiek.com)

if (-f $request_filename) {

break;

}

if (-d $request_filename) {

break;

}

rewrite ^(.+)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;



# Enable nice permalinks for WordPress: (as per Yawn.it)

error_page  404  = //index.php?q=$uri;

and I want something similar for bbPress. Please share the solution!

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

Although I havn’t tested it but it should work:

<ul>

<?php

$count=0;

if ( $topics )

{

foreach ( $topics as $topic)

{

$doof = $topic->forum_id;

if ($doof=="1")

{

if($count<3)

$count++;

else

break;

?>			<li><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a> | <?php topic_page_links(); ?></li>

<?php	} } } ?>

</ul>

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

You need to have the Forum ID for this. i am giving you a code snippet in the other thread. Just hang up for a few minutes.

We will continue discussion here in this thread : https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-do-i-loop-through-each-forum

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

I really don’t know how it could be done but you should be looking for a function with which you can return the current forum category, match it with something you want and then selectively display content as per it.

like :

for each topics

|

—-check category

|

—-if music then music list

—-else if code then code list

—-else if network then network list

Hope that helps.

[massbase]

im having to guess each and every class and function, just by how i might think they’re named…. I really can’t wait for the codex.

Sam, I’ve tried about 50 different changes and no matter what I do with the config files, the Integration plugin settings, or the bbPress WordPress Integration settings, nothing seems to change the fact that I cannot logout from WordPress if I have logged in from bbPress (that means I cannot logout period, I click logout there and can still go into either of the admins because the cookies are not removed). Everything else works fine. I could always redirect all my bbP login forms to wp-login.php I suppose, but it seems like that should be unnecessary. Could it be because my wordpress is in a subfolder of my site like /public_html/yawp/ ?

It seems when I login from bbP I get 2 wordpress_logged_in_* cookies, with identical values except that the ‘Path:’ of one is ‘/yawp/’ and the ‘Path:’ of the other is ‘/yawp’. When I login from WP I only get 1 wordpress_logged_in_* cookie, and it has a ‘Path:’ of ‘/yawp/’. I feel like this might be part of the problem.

I figured the integration speedup line $bb->sitecookiepath = '/yawp'; in bb-config.php might be to blame and added only that line, but changed it to $bb->sitecookiepath = '/yawp/';, cleared cache, deleted cookies, but still I get both logged_in cookies when logging in from bbP. That’s among trying a bunch of other different config changes to get that wp_login_* cookie unified.

Since you said in the RC-1 thread that I should be able to have this work if I just play with the cookie paths, have you any suggestions?

[massbase]

I didn’t find how to loop each category if there is such as thing, but I found this solution, its WORKS fine…

<?php if ( $topics ) : foreach ( $topics as $topic) : ?>

<?php

$doof = $topic->forum_id;

if ($doof=="1") {

?>

<p><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a><?php topic_page_links(); ?></p>

<?php } ?>

<?php endforeach; endif; ?>

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

Where are the settings of “User role map” stored? I think I may have selected it to make WP admins to be a bbP member and it may be a bug?

Wait, is it that User role maps are just updated once when they are asked to do so? Hmm.. Makes sense! So where can be the problem?

Sam, you there?

[swaymedia]

I want to show this on my front-page.php

– latest topic relating to music 4 , posted by (author) etc…

– latest topic relating to music 5 , posted by (author) etc…

code Category:-

– latest topic relating to code 5 , posted by (author) etc…

Network Category:-

– latest topic relating to Network 3 , posted by (author) etc…

– latest topic relating to Network 5 , posted by (author) etc…

What is the function to call the first 5 or so topics from a Specific category… please

[chrishajer]

Ahh. You want to extend the registration form then.

This plugins do something similar, maybe you could use one as a starting point?

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbsocialize/

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/gaming-codes/

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-allow-additional-or-custom-profile-fields

Also, there has been some discussion recently in these forums of just how to do this, but I can’t find it right now.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

After upgrading to WP 2.8, remember to REMOVE define('WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION', 1); from your bb-config.php file.

Also I had to dump all my cookies and cache to get back into the bb-admin side, but for a regular user perspective, everything was hunky dory

[pbarry4]

@zappoman Any chance you can share the wealth and make the plugin available? Cheers

[johnhiler]

Cookies

We should probably have a general writeup of how Cookies work in both WordPress and bbPress, across versions… how the WordPress cookie was changed in versions 2.5 and 2.6, and how the bbPress cookie was changed from 0.9 to 1.0 (and any other changes that you can think of!)

Of particular note would be which versions integrate well with each other (e.g. how bbPress 0.9 doesn’t have native support to integrate with the latest WordPress versions… so for a number of months, the only way to upgrade WordPress was to upgrade to the alpha 1.0).

Also, ck’s bbPress cookie upgrade plugin… and Superann’s WordPress cookie downgrade plugin (to allow 0.9 to talk to the latest WordPress cookies).

Anyone enough of a Cookie guru to draft a general writeup of how cookies work, and the general cookie compatibility issues we’ve seen? I think we can do better than the WordPress Codex, which seems really vague:

https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Cookies

Integration

Might be worth sharing links to people who have integrated bbPress with non *Press user logins:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-integration-2

Maybe also a writeup on “deep” *Press integration versus other more “shallow” forms of integration (shared login)… some useful links on that:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/first-pass-at-a-fix-for-deep-integration-in-trunk

Any other links on deep versus shallow integration?

[Atsutane]

$sql="SELECT * FROM bb_posts WHERE post_topic='' ORDER BY post_id DESC LIMIT 8";

It seem like you telling the script to look for post with empty topic. Try change it to this:

$sql="SELECT * FROM bb_posts ORDER BY post_id DESC LIMIT 8";

[exchequer598]

Shouldn’t the prefixes too be the same for integration? But guess what, I just uploaded bbPress 1.0 RC2 and somehow the problem is fixed!! But now when I login to bbPress admin page, I cannot see the link for the Plugins page. Also, if I type /bb-admin/plugins.php, I get redirected to the forum’s homepage! Please help
