Anyone else have this problem with 1and1 ?

I cannot get pretty permalinks to run, even after following directions.

I wrote to them

I am running wordpress and bbpress in the same root directory

http://mysite.com is wordpress install and

http://mysite.com/bbpress/ is bbpress install each install has

it’s own .htaccess for using permalinks. WordPress permalinks work fine

but I cannot get bbpress pretty permalinks to work at all. I have tried

different variations of htaccess codes for both files without any

success. It seems to me that the main root htaccess is overriding the

/bbpress/ htaccess.

Any suggestions ?

This was their reply to me.

“Dear Cliffmaster, (Customer ID: 6XXXXXXXX)

Thank you for contacting us.

With regards to your query,

we would highly suggest that you install BBpress on a different folder

and not on folder where you have installed a different CMS (WordPress).

Please separate the two CMS’s by installing them on different folders

under the root directory (/.)

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Hi!

I will release everything: the template (though it needs customization because it’s pretty ugly without it), all the plugins i use (except the specific settings for Ryuuko), including the User Photo modification.

I would have released all of them this weekend, but my laptop died Fortunately, i didn’t lost any data

Hi Detective,

I have tried sending you a message using your website but I think I might have submitted a comment instead of an email in error

I really like your website/forum (http://www.ryuuko.cl/bbpress/). It’s definitely one of the best bbpress/wordpress integrations I’ve seen, looks very professional – great job

Would you be able to give us some more information on how you used the wordpress User Photo plug-in inside bbpress? I’ve tried for a while to work out how to do it with no success. If you could help it would be very much appreciated, or if anyone knows how to do this?

I’ve done a few Google searches but there isn’t any information on how to integrate the User Photo plug-in into bbpress.

Thanks,

Will

Hi all

I am going live with my site soon, and was wondering how the showcase of Top 100 forums is rated. Is it by number of users on each forum or is it voted for?

Thanks

[djp]

lol, sorry, just read about how to submit in the forum. My bad.

[djp]

How do we make a bbpress forum submission? I am going live in less than a week & have made quite a lot of interface tweaks to suit the style of my site. I’d love to submit mine for inclusion on the showcase.

Let me know.

Fanx

Put all the bbPress files that are in the archive you downloaded into a folder in your webspace. If your website is at http://www.example.com/ and the files on the server are at /var/www/vhosts/yourname/ and you want your forums at http://www.example.com/forums/, just create a directory called /var/www/vhosts/yourname/forums in your webspace and upload the files there.

Put all the bbpress files into one folder though, exactly how they came out of the archive. By default, when you unzip the files, they are in a folder called bbpress. You can use that or rename that to forums, then just upload the whole thing to your webspace.

This is an old post about converting from PHPBB2:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/importing-from-phpbb

The Google Summer of Code project for bbPress is going to focus on importers for bbPress, so if you are not using PHPBB2, you might want to wait until the GSOC project is over. There will probably be an announcement if they complete the tools.

If you look at the plugin, it’s pretty simple. Line 12:

if (bb_current_user_can('administrate')

If you want to allow other users to do everything that this plugin allows, you would need to change ‘administrate’ to whatever permission your users have. I am not going to post exactly how to do it, since I think it could be a potential security hole, but that line right there is the key. Take a look at the plugin and see what I mean.

[chrishajer]

I think you need to include WordPress in your bbPress so you have access to WordPress functions like get_header:

https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/#func

Then, in your template, you need to do something like this:

<?php get_header(); ?>

That will include the WordPress header. If you do the second part without the first, it will fail because get_header is a WordPress function.

I think…

i just solved my login cookie issue after one night debugging…

i found these things:

– by default, wpmu generate auth_cookie as “wordpress”, but bbpress generate as “wordpress_xxxxx(hash)”

– wpmu not using “database secret” for cookie hashing, but it use the SECRET_SALT constant defined in the wp-config.php, bbpress using “database secret”. so the cookie result will never be the same.

you need to update your bb-config.php file to meet these situations.

assumed you’ve successfully install wpmu + bbpress, then edit your bb-config.php and add these line:

define(‘BB_SECRET_KEY’, ‘yourreallysecretkey’);

define(‘BB_SECRET_SALT’, ‘yourreallysecretsalt’);

$bb->authcookie = ‘wordpress’;

$bb->cookiedomain = ‘.yourdomain.com’;

$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;

$bb->sitecookiepath = ”;

and try to login… voila.. you can switch to bbpress and wpmu without re-login…

good luck,

_ck_:

The insert function in Comment Quicktags for bbPress can easily be reused to insert smilies.

Can you please show us how? Thanks

OK, I have the bbpress login and the wp login using the same user database under wp. The only issue that I have left is my loss of keymaster under the bbpress install. My problem with this is that I did auto-installs of both programs…so I didn’t get any options to set the keymaster/admin settings. I have read this post: wpbb-integration-admin-problem#post-2539 and I think that that it’s what I need to do. Problem is…I don’t know how to change this. I don’t see any code that looks like that which is being referred to. Anyone have a more detailed description of what I’m trying to do? Thanks.

[citizenkeith]

Are you planning on writing instructions and adding it to the plugin directory? I’m sure many would appreciate official releases of both this one and PM Extended.

[manomalt]

Man…i’ve been trying to get bbpress in integrate (sso) for about 4 days now. I’ve tried just about everything these forums have recommended. I first installed WordPress (upgraded to 2.5.1), and then installed the newest version of bbpress in a subdirectory, like http://www.mysite.com/forum. I then went to my “wordpress integration” section of my bbpress installation, set it up as directed…and now I can’t login to the admin section of my bbpress site. I looked into seryi’s suggested changed above, but my code seems to be correct in my pluggable.php file. I tried the “fix admin” plugin from here: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/fix-admin-access/. I also tried this process (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wpbb-integration-admin-problem#post-2539) of changed the phpmyadmin, but I’m confused on what to add where. Is there anything else I can try in order to get this integration working?

Hi,

Hello all,

I’m currently working on an install of bbPress on a website that uses the Equal Height Column CSS technique.

There is a known issue with this and anchor tags as explained at length here:

http://www.positioniseverything.net/articles/onetruelayout/appendix/equalheightproblems

Unfortuantely it doesn’t seem like there’s an easy work around.

So my question is…

How easy would it be to remove the anchor jumps from the ‘post’ topic/ ‘edit’ topic etc?

So for example when you post a reply it doesn’t go to

topic.php?id=5&replies=2#post-8

but

topic.php?id=5&replies=2

instead?

Any help with this would be massively appreciated. It’s one of those horrible design headaches.

– Alex

Find this function in the front-page.php file of your theme: <?php bb_tag_heat_map(); ?>

And replace it with this function: <?php bb_tag_heat_map(9, 9, 'pt', 80); ?>

Here’s what those numbers mean. The first number is the minimum font size, the second is the maximum font size, the third is how to measure the font (pt, px, etc.), and the fourth is how many tags to display.

Now the forums have some activity, as we closed our old Vanilla forums

[Detective]

Well, i didn’t write install instructions, so it’s my fault

[Detective]

Please add these two fields to your table bb_privatemessages:

'del_receiver' tinyint(4) NOT NULL default '0'

'del_sender' tinyint(4) NOT NULL default '0'

I forgot to put those two on the install function. Now it should work

We’re going to look at it again later this week. We’re busy building a debain box for a new WordPress MU site that we are about to launch.

I’m telling you though – if somebody made a [shortcode] and some WP widgets this would be so freaking awesome…. I think my head would just explode

[citizenkeith]

Thanks Detective. Obviously I’m not skilled in PHP.

The original PM plugin is in desperate need of an update, IMHO, and I was hoping this would be it. However, I didn’t consider that it would even change the database. I guess I’ll stick with the old version for now, but would love for somebody (since I am not a programmer) to come up with some sort of PM import.

Also, I was using the latest version of Joshua’s PM plugin (v0.80)

[citizenkeith]

I get this error at the top of the pm.php page:

bbPress database error: [Unknown column 'del_receiver' in 'where clause']

SELECT * FROM bb_privatemessages WHERE id_receiver = '1' AND del_receiver= '0' ORDER BY created_on DESC



bbPress database error: [Unknown column 'del_sender' in 'where clause']

SELECT * FROM bb_privatemessages WHERE id_sender = '1' AND del_sender = '0' ORDER BY created_on DESC

Also, all previous Private Messages are missing.

[citizenkeith]

This appears in the quote box when I load a page:

<br />

<b>Fatal error</b>:  Call to undefined function  bb_quote_message() in <b>/home/zzz/zzz.com/forums/bb-templates/kakumei/post-form.php</b> on line <b>10</b><br />

[Detective]

Small fix:

$text =  preg_replace('/<blockquote>((.|[nr])*?)</blockquote>/', '',$post->post_text);

$text = bb_code_trick_reverse($text);
