Here are lines 106 – 119:

if ( version_compare( PHP_VERSION, ‘5.2.3’, ‘>=’ ) ) {

$string = htmlentities( $string, $quote_style, $charset, $double_encode );

} else {

// Handle double encoding for PHP versions that don’t support it in htmlentities()

if ( !$double_encode ) {

// Multi-byte charsets are not supported below PHP 5.0.0

// ‘cp866’, ‘cp1251’, ‘KOI8-R’ charsets are not supported below PHP 4.3.2

}

The first time I went through the install process, it allowed me to finish right up until the end but the page kept spamming the following message throughout the install process:

Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in /mnt/w0709/d31/s09/b0286f02/www/jrobichess.com/forums/bb-includes/wp-functions.php on line 113

When the install says it’s done and I have my username and ID – and go to open the page, it has this error message only repeating. I am currently reinstalling, but thought I would post here to see if I am missing something simple. On a side note, when I open the file in question in notepad, I can’t locate line 113 to see what the issue is. Anyone recommend a good code viewer broken down by lines?

Thanks,

Jason

Okay, with 1.0-a-5 trunk I get the same old inactive user when I register via WP. No errors on the page or in the log, though.

Also I got this error, which I fixed by flipping back to the old file:

Call to undefined function  wp_check_invalid_utf8() in

/home/XX/public_html/forums/bb-includes/functions.wp-core.php on line 60

[_ck_]

This will show in you in PHPMYADMIN all users older than at least a month who have never posted:

SELECT ID,user_login,user_registered FROM wp_users

LEFT JOIN bb_posts ON ID=poster_id

WHERE user_registered<DATE_SUB(CURDATE(),INTERVAL 30 DAY)

AND poster_id is NULL

[wordpressfan]

Almost made it all the way through.

I added the include line to the alpha 5 download and got to step 2 before this error:

Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in /home3/wifirepo/public_html/wpmatrix/forum/bb-includes/backpress/functions.core.php on line 389

This is the same warning I get when trying to install 0.9.04.

[_ck_]

To remove the warnings when using PHP 4, until Sam fixes it, go into bb-settings.php and change the error_reporting line (line 51 in 0.9.0.4 and line 29 in 1.0a5)

old:

// Modify error reporting levels

error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

new:

error_reporting(0);

[_ck_]

Might be a trunk bug but strange how it works in the default.

They changed how the links work to bb_post_admin so it’s all internal now.

If there is a bug, it would be in

function bb_get_post_delete_link( $post_id = 0 ) {

Unless maybe in your template you have both

bb_get_post_delete_link() and bb_post_admin()

which should not be.

Wait, I take that all back

something crazy is going on with line 1599,

you now MUST have in your theme both classes to hide the inactive link.

So they essentially broke every theme in existance with the new trunk. Nice.

$r = "<a href='$delete_uri' class='$ajax_delete_class delete-post'>" . __( 'Delete' ) . "</a> <a href='$undelete_uri' class='$ajax_undelete_class undelete-post'>" . __( 'Undelete' ). '</a>';

Go into your stylesheet and copy from the default kakumei stylesheet the styles for

#thread li .undelete-post, #thread li.deleted .delete-post { display: none; }

#thread li.deleted .undelete-post { display: inline; }

Are they calling everything threads instead of topics now? Ugh. More confusion.

Thanks for the speedy reply. I just installed the Human Test plugin today, thankfully. I wish I knew about it sooner; perhaps I wouldn’t have this mess to clean up now.

At any rate, I’m not integrated—it’s a stand-alone forum. I’m running MySQL 4.1.16, according to phpMyAdmin.

[ganzua]

Hey Ipstenu,

The plugin you suggested seems to work after a wp-bbpress integration! thanks a lot

In my case, I’m forcing registration and login through wp. I tried registration through bbpress before, and I think you run into a lot of problems.

The sanitize_user() function is the same in bbPress as it is in WordPress. Even the filter names are the same. Still, WordPress plugins don’t generally work in bbPress without some modification.

If it is the same function, in my opinion this feature should be in the core of both, wb and bbpress. It has no sense to allow double registrations like “John” and “john”, don’t you think so?

[Ben L.]

I’m on the current trunk as of writing this post. (1903) I’ll try testing the live forum.

Edit: Using the default theme made the problem go away, but the line of code that shows the edit/delete/undelete links is exactly the same as Kakumei’s and there’s no functions.php file.

[sbouazza]

My bb-includes/backpress/functions.core.php begins with :

<?php

include "functions.bp-options.php";

// Last sync [WP9916]

...

@wordpressfan

I got the same error Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in …/bb-includes/wp-functions.php on line 113

I switch from php4 to php5 and it works fine now. I’m hosted on MT GS.

[wordpressfan]

Arg! I cannot install bbpress no matter what download link I use. The link for the stable version 0.9.0.4 gives me this error when trying to install:

Warning: cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()! in /home3/wifirepo/public_html/wpmatrix/forum/bb-includes/wp-functions.php on line 113

The download link for the unstable 1.0.5 alpha give me a fatal error that is said to be fixed in the “trunk” version, but there is no download link (only reference to an svp – no zip file.

I want to install a working version of bbpress but all attempts have been thwarted.

[sbouazza]

About the “backpress_get_option” error : I don’t even know if it’s the best way, but you can edit functions.core.php and add this :

include "functions.bp-options.php";

It works for me

[virginiagirl]

I figured out what the problem was, although I’m not sure how to fix it (I’m still learning PHP). The problem is this PHP code which I have in an include (along with all my code for the site’s navigation):

<?php

// Extracts the file name from the file name

$path = $_SERVER;

$page = basename($path);

$page = basename($path, ‘.php’);

?>

The code extracts the the file name from the file to select the current tab in my navigation. When I remove this section of code, the Reply form appears and works as normal. Is the problem having PHP code in an include file?

@segwayinfo: Last night was supposed to be “Install WPMU, BudyPress and bbPress” night for me. Oh well.

Also, when I register a new user through WordPress as per normal, that user is still not assigned a role in bbPress. Not when they login, not when they hit the forum for the first time. Not ever.

My Steps:

1. I used a Chrome browser window to register a new user through WordPress
2. Logged in via WordPress
3. Hit the forum
4. User could not post, looks like has no role
5. Logged out via WordPress
6. Used FireFox to login as admin to check new user role
7. No Role Assigned
8. Used Chrome to login through bbPress
9. Hit the forum
10. User could not post, looks like has no role
11. Used Firefox admin to edit Test user
12. Received typical error message (noted below)

Warning: array_key_exists() [function.array-key-exists]: The second argument should be either an array or an object in /forums/bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php on line 2009

Basically it looks like the exact same error message as before, with the same circumstances.

---

Round two using alpha 5 trunk from the SVN went exactly the same way, only this time when I logged in via bbPress, the above Warning went away, but that user is still marked as Inactive by default when they should be a Member according to the role map.

---

When registering through bbPress, the new user still is not assigned a Role on the WordPress side either.

---

Sam, can you explain to me what was supposed to be different in alpha5? Maybe I misunderstood…

[John James Jacoby]

When I renamed my old config file, I actually received the same error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function backpress_get_option() in /forum/bb-includes/backpress/functions.core.php on line 412

So I renamed my config file back, visited the forum, and then it prompted me for upgrade.

Is there a specific upgrade page to visit now rather than just hitting the root of the forum?

---

Sam, it seems this only happens when I upgrade from alpha4 to alpha5. I was running a trunk version, and received no errors and wasn’t even prompted to upgrade from trunk to 5.

[Ben L.]

Most of the filters are in defaults.bb-filters.php or default-filters.php before 1.0.

[Ben L.]

Untested code below:

<?php $bb_post = $posts[0]; unset($posts[0]);   $del_class = post_del_class();?>

<div id="post-<?php post_id(); ?>"<?php alt_class('post', $del_class); ?>>

<?php bb_post_template(); ?>

</div>

<h6>Responses</h6>

<ol id="thread" start="<?php echo $list_start; ?>">

<?php foreach ($posts as $bb_post) : $del_class = post_del_class(); ?>

<li id="post-<?php post_id(); ?>"<?php alt_class('post', $del_class); ?>>

<?php bb_post_template(); ?>

</li>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ol>

A demo would be nice.

There’s no official documentation or codex yet.

A few people have done phpxref for bbpress but I find that kind of output fairly useless.

If you have access to linux shell you can do a grep to get a function list in the template include like so (or install the grep for windows)

grep -oe ^function.*) bb-includes/template-functions.php | sort > functions.txt

modifying that you can also get the filters/actions

grep -oe apply_.*) bb-includes/template-functions.php | sort > filters.txt

grep -oe do_.*) bb-includes/template-functions.php | sort > actions.txt

If you use the grep for windows, leave out the escapes (backslashes) or it won’t work.

[_ck_]

>> The same performance gain is achieved using the existing forum_time index.

Ah so in that case, no ALTER required and there is zero extra storage required and the plugin can be used like this:

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Topic Time Index

*/

add_filter('get_latest_topics_join','topic_time_index',99999);

function topic_time_index($join) {return " $join USE INDEX(forum_time) ";}

?>

Hi there!

I am sorry if someone else has already created a post on this.

I have a website (powered by wordpress) that has a bunch of how-to windows tech articles. I need to get a forum for my site users. Which one would be better? My users will need the capability of uploading files, pasting code and images. Which forum program would put less pressure on my servers and hopefully keep the running a little faster?

Thank you ahead of time for any help.
