I think I’ve fixed it – fully ‘integrated’ bbpress and wp for cookie sharing AND user database. Now it’s using the wp tables for user data, and is giving out the correct cookie… and all users can login

On Multiviews: Never heard of it until I first installed bbPress. If mof_rewrite would work out of the box (i.e.: if bbPress would create the file or dump the necessary content) I wouldn’t need MultiViews.

Here is one aspect I’d like to through in: URL Customization/Localization.

When localizing URLs, it’s very easy to do this via editing of mod_rewrite rules. All my bbPress installations are in german language, thus I want german URLs.

When changing the wording in URLs, e.g. from “forum” to “board” or “topic” to “idea” etc., same thing – just edit the rewrite rules.

How easy would it be to customize URLs with MultiViews in effect? Without having looked into the implementation, I would guess that it requires code changes.

If URL customization is easier in mod_rewrite, please drop MultiViews. Otherwise, please document how URL customization can be done using MultiViews.

Ya know what…

What would solve all these problems would be shortcodes.

If I could just create a page and add a shortcode:

[bbPress] then all our problems would just go away.

Then if you wanted to get the bbPress “search” and “hot tags” to show in your sidebar you can just add the bbPress widgets and they would in theory just work.

I guess that means my request is:

1) Add a bbPress [forum] shortcode for wordpress

2) Release some bbPress widgets for the wordpress sidebar

Could anybody give me more detailed instructions for getting thread replies in the comments, please?

Replies in the thread can be shown where the comments are (quite automagically). Use <?php bbrepliestext(); ?> to just link to the thread; it accepts the link text as an argument and %no% and %replies% will be replaced with the numebr of posts and the right pluralicised form of the word reply.

Where to put exactly the php code? Does it must to replace some other code? Do I have to put something between ( ) ?

Sorry but I’m not an advanced user on coding. Thanks!

Wait, its called:

phpBB: OMGPonyBBQs!:

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!1

xD, again. When they gonna make actuall talkpress?..

Hiya

I’m basically thinking out loud, and felt this was the best forum to post in.

I was browsing through _ck_’s top 100 bbpress forum (well, the first one at least http://www.greedyorneedy.com/), and had a look at the site’s forum and member profiles such as this:-

http://www.greedyorneedy.com/users/view/id/7412

They look brilliant – facebook esque, and would love to implement something similar to my site (well one of my ideas anyway)

What I suspect is that it is a WordPress/Wordpress MU plugin, but still if anybody has any ideas to how they achived this, I would love to hear them

[John Smith]

Hi, sambauers

The code work fine for me , thanks.

[mysticalbatwoman]

I would like my bbpress forum to show up on my wordpress blog page called “forum”. I also would like the forum to have the same look as my blog (at least the top of it). I have bbpress loaded in a subdirectory of WP called “forum”. I’m new to html coding and would love step by step instructions from anyone who is patient with new students Thanks

Great

[Stefano Aglietti]

Matt’s had already the idea.. it will be called freshpress…

[Stefano Aglietti]

I know.. the same that i did… but on WP SVN tags are update and all is correctly structured, it’s true that there is Nicolay that care for I18N etc quite all the time, here peopel are.. “multitasking”

Arturo would you like to collaborate to the upcoming bbpress.it site that is going to start in the next months or so? If so, mail me.

[kienphong]

i’m looking for function reference page and lists of filters/actions for bbpress and couldn’t find it. For wordpress we have something like this:

http://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

Is there anything like that for bbpress?

Thanks

[yazerty]

That would be a great great thing !! Reaalyy .

ps : with bbpress post answers -> blog post comments

[chrishajer]

To get rid of the whitespace where the tags were, open up style.css and find this around line 215:

#front-page #discussions {

It looks like this now:

#front-page #discussions {

margin-left: 170px;

width: 590px;

}

 

Change it to this:

#front-page #discussions {

width: 760px;

}

 

That moves it over the the left, and makes it the full width (590+170 = 760.)

Not sure what other pages you want to do this on, but the procedure is the same.

[citizenkeith]

You can just download WordPress and upload the smilies to a new directory. Then just change the plugin to point to the new directory at this line:

#

$wp_smiliesreplace[] = " <img src='/wp-includes/images/smilies/$img' alt='$smiley_masked' class='wp-smiley' /> ";

#

}

[willyhoops]

I have just installed this and I am an amateur if not total dummy at htlm, php and css. Is this a Pro Product or do you expect home users to use it as well? To use this I need to: (a) remove the “hot tags” section on the left. (b) Remove the Forums section. (c) Remove the Views Section. Sitting here staring the the php and the css is crazy. Where is the dummies guide that says how to do these simple things? Also this thing has no search on it which makes no sense. I can handle that with a google site search box on there but where is the code/theme for this please? Many Thanks…

Oh man forget it it’s crashing now at: http://willyhoops.com/bbpress/. Click on anything and it says topic not found. I am totally lost

[sasapuksic]

Is this actualy working by now or is there no way emotions could be impelmented in to bbpress? Thats a big shame I gues …

[will-tomsett]

Sorted it all out. You just need to delete all the tables starting with “bb” and re-install as usual.

Thanks, everyone.

[will-tomsett]

The site’s run by an aquaintance of mine – I get free hosting from him. I’ll take a looksie as to what value I put for the user prefix.

Watch this space.

[migpilot]

I am well stumped, I really am

I have read as much as I can find on issues with integration but still no love.

The setup:

Server IIS.

Latest WP.

Latest BB.

ALL secret codes match.

Config files have the suggested added lines of code.

Priv mappings are all set correctly.

So far though, I can get only one account to auto login into wp from bb, and that’s only if I log in through BB only, ie. if I login through WP, it does not carry over to BB but does from BB to WP. This user incidentally has an account setup both in BB and WP.

Any other BB account can not log into WP, regardless of being logged into BB first.

Any ideas out there? I’m loving both new versions, but I have close to 2000 users that I would like to allow contribution privs to WP with their existing BB accounts – it seems WP does not see any of the BB users.

Cheers!

Will, if you don’t remember what your table prefix is for WordPress, you can look it up in /wp-config.php. Most likely, you didn’t change it and it’s: wp_.

[bilibou]

Youhou I think I found a more simple solution than merging bbpress and wordpress language file:

– Download your bbpress language file (for me fr_FR) then rename it using another name than the language file you use for wordpress (in my case my wordpress language file is fr_FR and I renamed it in ru_RU) then put it inside your /wp-content/languages folder.

– duplicate wp-blog-header.php and rename the copy as wp-blog-header-bb.php

– duplicate wp-config.php and rename the copy wp-config-bb.php

– open wp-blog-header-bb.php and replace the two occurences of wp-config.php by wp-config-bb.php

-open wp-config-bb.php and replace the line define (‘WPLANG’, ‘yourlanguage’);

by define (‘WPLANG’, ‘newnameofyourbbpresslanguagefile’); (in my case I replaced define (‘WPLANG’, ‘fr_FR’); by define (‘WPLANG’, ‘ru_RU’)

-In your bb-config.php replace wp-blog-header.php by wp-blog-header-bb.php

You’re done now each time bbpress loads wordpress will load your bbpress language file instead of the wordpress one.

I hope my explainations were clear.

A++

[will-tomsett]

I’m pretty sure it was wp_user, although it may have been wp-user – I can’t remember exactly.

[gerikg]

Chris you’re right. In BBpress I can use all the WP functions (ex. sidebar) but I can’t use any BBpress function (ex. Simple Online list code) in WordPress.

<?php login_form(); ?> <—BBpress code in wordpress will not work.

Thanks sambauers but I want the opposite/reverse. I want BBPress to load in full when people are in wordpress.

My theory is if this work I can put BBPress code in the WPsidebar .

require_once(‘path/to/wp-blog-header.php’); <– to put in BB-config

require_once(‘path/to/????????????.php’); <– to put in WP-config
