Looks like this is wrong in your config.php:
$bb->uri = 'http://africanloft/forums/';
should be:
$bb->uri = 'http://africanloft.com/forums/';
Looks like you forgot the .com?
It’s also possible the ('BBDB_HOST', 'localhost') setting is wrong, but I saw the lack of a .com in the source for your page. None of the links on the index page work because they are all pointed to http://africanloft/forums/{whatever}
Can you post the output from phpinfo? That error message comes up when the installation cannot find either the mysql or mysqli extensions. It’s possible PHP was configured without those extensions.
Create a file (maybe name it info.php or anything.php) and put this into it:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Go to the location of that file with a web browser (like http://www.yourserver.com/info.php) and that will echo a whole bunch of data back about the PHP installation.
http://www.php.net/phpinfo
That would be the first step, seeing if your PHP was compiled with the proper modules for MySQL.
Hey louisedade 
Not that I wanna bother you but its a week since I wrote my reply to your post.
Are you still interested in helping out?
Oh hey. I think the colon syntax works so that the endif comes after all of it, including the else statements. So just try removing the endif;. If that gets unexpected results, can you copy the entire code for that file to http://pastebin.com/ and link it here for me to look at please? In fact, might be best to do that anyway just to make sure.
Replace (in anonymous.php):
add_action('bb_new_post', 'bb_anonymous_posting_add_post_poster');
function bb_anonymous_posting_add_post_poster($post_id) {
global $bbdb;
$name = bb_get_current_user_info( 'name' );
$bbdb->query("UPDATE $bbdb->posts SET poster_name = '$name' WHERE post_id = '$post_id'");
}
with
add_action('bb_new_post', 'bb_anonymous_posting_add_post_poster');
function bb_anonymous_posting_add_post_poster($post_id) {
global $bbdb;
$name = bb_get_current_user_info( 'name' );
$bbdb->query("UPDATE $bbdb->posts SET poster_name = '$name' WHERE post_id = '$post_id'");
$bbdb->query("UPDATE $bbdb->posts SET post_status = '1' WHERE post_id = '$post_id'");
}
Now, new Posts are automaticly marked as spam. You can go to your admin area and undelete them (if its not spam) 
sorry for my bad english, im german
&& and || are just two different things. && means both things have to be true for the entire result to be true, || means just one needs to be true for the entire result to be true.
On a german keyboard I think it’s the capital letter on button just left of backspace. On a spanish layout it should be the one two left of enter, the one that also gives you ^ and [ (if I’m looking at the diagrams right).
There is one thing you can do – there’s a generic query filter that executes every time bbdb makes a query. You could use a regex to get the thread numbers from that. (If you don’t know regexes that well I could write it.)
Probably no design decision behind that, just an oversight. Go to trac, log in using your details here and create a new ticket requesting this (marking it as an enhancement not bug). Mdawaffle (^^) is busy with wp or something at the moment but when he sees it he’ll probably either implement or discuss at least.
Sounds like no amount of messing with the template could save you from this fate. I have no idea why you would have done this, but have you replaced profile.php in the root of bb with a template file? This is what profile.php should look like. (Your custom templates should go in a my-templates/ folder in root.)
<?php
require_once('./bb-load.php');
bb_repermalink(); // The magic happens here.
if ( $self ) {
if ( strpos($self, '.php') !== false ) {
require($self);
} else {
require( BBPATH . 'profile-base.php' );
}
return;
}
$reg_time = strtotime( $user->user_registered );
$profile_info_keys = get_profile_info_keys();
if ( !isset( $_GET['updated'] ) )
$updated = false;
else
$updated = true;
do_action( 'bb_profile.php_pre_db', $user_id );
if ( isset($user->is_bozo) && $user->is_bozo && $user->ID != bb_get_current_user_info( 'id' ) && !bb_current_user_can( 'moderate' ) )
$profile_info_keys = array();
$posts = get_recent_user_replies( $user_id );
$threads = get_recent_user_threads( $user_id );
do_action( 'bb_profile.php', $user_id );
bb_load_template( 'profile.php', array('reg_time', 'profile_info_keys', 'updated', 'threads') );
?>
Problem with inserting users.
Now, I am having a problem where my last insert id on the bb_users table is 10,000,000,430 and the user registration is broken.
So I have looked at the code in bb-includes/registration-functions.php
and I’ve found that this line in the bb_send_pass() function is causing trouble:
$user = (int) $user;
After this line $user is set to zero, where it was 10,000,000,430 before.
After examining further, I found numerous places where you had $user = (int) $user;
It seems like PHP cannot handle the type cast of 10,000,000,430…
Btw… I do not know why the last_insert_id is 10,000,000,430, seems like something done by the previous website owner. However, looking at the bb_users.ID column it looks like it is BIGINT by default – which is too large for php integers which is only 32 bit signed…
Damn!
There’s no filter for get_thread()! 
Is there any design decision behind not allowing people to hook into that?
As I said, for a full page of posts (30), I’m updating my readlog 30 times, when all I really need to do is get things upstream at the get_topic() and just take the last dimension of the array and make that the last read post in that given topic for the user.
It’d save 29 SQL updates per pageload in busy topics.
So until there’s a hook there, or an epiphany for another spot I could hook into, Unread Topics 0.4 stands as the best I can do solution for indicating what the user has read so far.
Thanks for the explanation, do you have to put && insted of ||
“By the way, the backtick ` that indicates code is on the top left button on most English and European characters. “
-> sorry for that because I have it quite difficult, I’m using a german keyboard and OS is in Spanish 
No problem.
Option #3 was a throwaway possibility, not really meant for actual use as it’s rather silly.
whatever && !is_bbpress() means, literally, that whatever has to be true AND is_bbpress() is not true. The ! operator inverts the boolean meaning, so true becomes false and vice versa. If is_bbpress() is true, ! makes it read as false. If false, it makes it read as true.
By the way, the backtick ` that indicates code is on the top left button on most English and European characters.
Thanks again fel64,
I tried the second one because it seemed the easiest to me and I think it is working ok.
This -> ‘ && !is_bbpress() ‘ means “exclude bbpress”, doesn’t it?
The first one, ” elseif “, is quite interesting -> in my wp custom theme, I turned index.php into a cms which displays what’s new in the whole web, and I created a static page called “blog” to display the “blog” itself.
Well, with this configuration, whenever you make a is_home statement , the function points to the static page I created and called “blog” and I can’t find the way to make the function to point to my custom index.php main page. Perhaps because the static page I called “blog” has the loop?
Quick Google turned up this:
“Fatal error: Trying to clone an uncloneable object of class mysqli – If this error occurs you must turn off the zend.ze1_compatibility_mode setting in your PHP configuration.”
ini_set('zend.ze1_compatibility_mode', 0);
Actually the function works just fine, you’re just expecting it to work differently. Try using different flow control or rewriting your logic.
if( blah_is_true() ) {
} elseif( foo_is_true() ) {
} elseif( third_thing_is_true() ) {
} else {
// default
}
The elseifs mean that if a previous if statement was true, none of the successive ones will be tried. That way, if it is bb, it won’t even check if it’s single or a page.
Alternatively,
if( ( is_single() || is_page() ) && !is_bbpress() ) {
}
will work just fine.
If you’ve integrated bb into wp that way, of course some of the WP template tags will work that way. If you wanted everything else to return false when you loaded bb, you’d have to do this:
function adjust_flags_to_bb() {
global $wp_query;
$wp_query->init_query_flags();
}
add_action('bb_init', 'adjust_flags_to_bb', 999);
//not sure if that's the right action, but meh
but that’s really quite unnecessary.
“What’s the actual problem? How are you using it, what do you expect it to do, what exactly is it doing?”
->
In my wp-bb integration, bbpress is integrated in wordpress and the forum uses the wordpress sidebar. I want to insert advertising blocks in the free space that I have in the bottom of the sidebar.
I’m trying to use wp conditional tags to display different ad blocks because in some pages I have space enough for one block, and in other pages I have space for two or three blocks.
In wp single pages I can display at least two 120×600 blocks so I’m using is_single() but I realized that these blocks are appearing in the bbpress forum too! and I just have no space enough for them so I want to change them for a 125×125 block when the forum is displayed or perhaps I could remove all ads when bbpress displayed.
So “How are you using it” -> after copy/pasting your function in my theme functions file, I inserted this code in my sidebar;
‘
<?php if (is_bbpress()
|| is_archive()
) { ?>
<!– 125×125 block –>
…
…
<?php } ?>
<?php if (is_single()
|| is_page()
) { ?>
<!– 160×600 block –>
…
…
<?php } ?>
‘
“what do you expect it to do” -> showing different ads blocks in the sidebar when bbpress displayed
“what exactly is it doing” -> is showing the blocks I set for is_single ()
Yeah that’s right. It was long process. I worked on the backend while my colleague did all the Flash wizardry. I’ll do a full writeup as soon as I have permission
What’s going on? 
http://www.doublepeace.se/forum/
Fatal error: Trying to clone an uncloneable object of class mysqli in /home/virtual/doublepeace.se/public_html/forum/bb-includes/db-mysqli.php on line 71
Any help? I have no clue what’s going on!
You’re the one that asked about BB_Query a while back to achieve this, right? Looks good, nice concept. My only problem is that it feels unresponsive when you select a star.
What all did you have to do to achieve this? If you could write up and post here or somewhere your general method, problems maybe and so on, that’d be great for other people that might want to do this.
I wonder why the ‘ character is fine here, but not on your forum? Definitely a good one
that’s the problem, the error appears while posting something with an ‘ character!
the error is:

I lost my marbles somewhere along the way. I did make one change to the forums – added smilies. Every bozo I’ve got now was using smilies.
SamBauers: Hmm ?
The current implementation has one row per user per topic as it is. Instead of using something like time, I use the topic_last_post_id from the topics table. Then I have a table which essentially is user_id | topic_id | post_read. Which contains the very last post in a topic the user has read.
The implementation is far from perfect, the code that updates the table is getting run each time a post is rendered. Which means 29 useless sql updates per page.
I just need to get some time to look at the code to find another way. But as it is, it works.
I suppose I’ll be more involved, as there are some features I need to make for myself. I see no reason not to share the work.
