I think that the capabilities entry is wp’s capabilities entry. Does that refer to the member id you have when you publish a post?

(Hmm, bum)

There are duplicate topics made? That’s interesting. Can you check bb_topicmeta to see if it’s added anything there? It should have done.

The error in line 275 arises directly because of the error in line 271, so it can be ignored for now

Ok.

The warning prints every time I post or save. I realize it doesnt actually crash the website, but that warning is the only thing that appears.

This is what is inserted into the user_meta. Its inserted when published or saved. It doesnt seem to be duplicated again after I save it if its already in there, but if I delete the listing, then it is re added

capabilities a:1:{s:6:"member";b:1;}

oddly enough it is not putting the bb_ in front of capabilities which may be a clue to whats happening.

(I dont have $bb_roles in the config.php)

Also a new post is put in bbpress each time it syncs.

From what I gather: line 275 of capabilities.php is looking for an array to loop through which should have the capabilities.

ok – using bbpress 0.8.2.1, wpmu (which is wp 2.2.1), and I have the users integrated.

When I post through WP, it makes both the WP post and the bbpress post correctly, but this error appears. From what I can tell, the actually the usermeta information is being duplicated in the database for the person posting and it then crashes because it cant successfully get the capabilities.

here is the crash:

Warning: array_filter(): The second argument, 'Array', should be a valid callback in bb-includes/capabilities.php on line 271

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in bb-includes/capabilities.php on line 275

Ive trimmed the server path a little.

I am wading through it trying to understand how you set it up. It nicely done, but I dont understand why this is happening.

I think that IE7 does not recognise the <br clear="all"> as it should – kakumei was designed pre-IE7, I think? Try playing around with the HTML; can’t test it myself unfortunately since the problem is in IE. Maybe <br style="clear: both;"/> will work?

[fel64]

Is there a wp hook in wp_list_pages()? That would be the first place to start.

You could always create custom page templates which redirect the user when they visit that page using http://uk2.php.net/header. There’s a wp tutorial in their codex to creating custom page templates. You’d need one for each forum.

[fel64]

Hi you

Try this if your blog is integrated.

echo $bb->wp_home;

Don’t forget the php tags to do it in HTML.

I think it would be safe to code your navigation bar now.

[fel64]

Hey peoples, was on holiday for a week – sorry!

WDuluoz (Wilbur?), when it referenced functions.php originally what was the reference and what version were you using? You fixed this by adding the global $bbdb, ...; declaration in config.php?

Can you be more specific about your strange problems? Where are you posting, wp or bb? What do you see on your screen after you make the post? What is ‘member inserted’, and how do you know? When does it crash, how do you know it crashes trying to pull up the capabilities array? I need error messages and warnings.

starrett, where are you using that? I think you need to add this line just above line #493 (in Notepad, press Ctrl + G to go to a certain line):

require_once( $opshuns['bbpath'] );

Line #493 is the one that says $topic_id = ...;. At least I think that’s the problem, that would explain why I didn’t catch it.

I never could get wpmu to run on top of bbpress. Evertime I tried wpmu would think I wanted to create a blog named boards instead of load the installation of bbpress in the directory called boards. (If anyone has a solution for that PLEASE point me in the right direction)

My friend (atomAstro on here) figured this out. In your wpmu-settings.php file you need to add some code around line 119.

This:

if( $blogname == 'bbpress' ){

return true;

}

Should be added right above this:

if( is_array( $pages ) == false )

return false;

Change $blogname = ‘bbpress’ to whatever your bbPress directory is called.

[airdrawndagger]

Ok, solved that as well

Now, for my next problem. What do I type so it knows when I’m browsing a forum page? If you look at my site I have highlighted tabs for my different sections. I need the forum tab to be highlighted while in the forum and for the start tab not to be! I use is_home for the start tab

http://www.doublepeace.se/forum

Please help!

[airdrawndagger]

Thank you for the help! Actually I solved it just now, I had to put

global $current_user; echo $current_user->ID;

to get it right!

[_ck_]

Heh, thanks for the compliment but I am completely self-trained and rather unprofessional in my code (translation: I’d make a mess)

I just seem to have a knack at code, I learn very quickly from examples and can figure out how to apply them. Also, exhaustive hours at hacking pre-2.0 wordpress taught me a lot.

ps. what “serious” issues – I might have a go… maybe…

[_ck_]

Just an untested guess on my part but what you want is something like this?

<a href="/forum/profile.php?id=<? echo $user_ID; ?>">your profile</a>

[_ck_]

Yeah I’ve already hacked the core code to make it say “Track this topic in your forum favorites” to make it sound different than adding to your bookmarks which every site nags the visitors to do and so they ignore it.

Too much hacking needed to change the term “favorites” everywhere unfortunately and it was the first thing I sadly had to touch the core for. After hacking up wordpress so much that I cannot easily upgrade it, I swore not to do that on BBpress, especially since it’s so early in alpha/beta

It’s also going to be a problem eventually that a tracking level is not set for each “favorite”, so now they can only get every topic emailed, or none at all.

When in doubt, study vbulletin as a model I suggest…

[Detective]

This is what i do to solve the problem:

function wpbb_add_user_role_rk($user_id) {

$user = new WP_User($user_id);

$user->set_role(get_option('default_role'));

}

add_action( ‘bb_new_user’, ‘wpbb_add_user_role_rk’);

[Trent Adams]

I would just add this as a request in TRAC because I think that is important as well as I have currently 5 plugins (I know I could combine them to 1) to allow code. Maybe a checkbox in the admin?

[_ck_]

Here’s a function I whipped up to grab the number of users who call any particular topic a favorite.

If you don’t send it a topic id, it return the currently displayed topic’s favorite count

function get_topic_favorites_count( $topic_id=0) {

global $bbdb, $topic;

if (!$topic_id) $topic_id = (int) $topic->topic_id;

return $bbdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ".$bbdb->usermeta." WHERE meta_key='bb_favorites' AND meta_value REGEXP ':<:".$topic_id.":>:'");

}

use it this way:

<? echo get_topic_favorites_count(); ?>

within your topic.php template

@Beaver6813:

The error sounds like it’s trying to call the add_action() function when either the file containing the function (wp-functions.php) isn’t included for some reason, or the plugin is being called before it has been included.

I do not know why this might occur, although the fact you are using an integrated WordPress/bbPress combo might be a factor. We really need somebody who knows more about the internals of both system to help.

Anyway, by commenting out the add_action() function all you have done is prevent the plugin from automatically creating an identicon for newly registered users. So, it’s not such a biggie while trying to solve the problem.

@_ck_

Feel free to hack the script however you see fit — I realise I have been rather too strict with the filenames, especially as it is really only a first-stage precaution (the file gets renamed n the server anyway). Also, I believe some browsers add the whole path to the uploaded filename (something I neglected to address).

A solution I am adding to the next version will be to extract the actual filename from the path before checking.

$img_name = basename($img['name']);

Then, the number of necessary characters to allow is greatly reduced. I just prefer to approach it from the other end, block everything except what I explicitly allow. But as I said, feel free to hack it to suit your needs.

I was completely unaware that you could enter a URL into a file input (“browse”) field? You indicate that it forces Windows to download the file, but I am wondering whether it is a browser specific feature and whether it is supposed to work like that? I would not rely on it.

The mime-type comes from the uploaded file in $_FILES which, you are right should not be trusted. I’m experimenting with checking whether the uploaded file is areally an image doing something like imagecreatefromjpeg() – obviously using the appropriate function for the reported file extension (so if it’s all wrong/missing/forged an error will result). Alternatively, a simple solution might be to use getimagesize() (just the one function for all types), which I already use later in the code.

[howtogeek]

I should mention that my code is a horrible hack… hopefully they’ll fix the problem in the core.

[_ck_]

Well with wordpress, the override is right in the code but obviously to leave the bbpress core alone it would have to be a plugin. (Kinda wondering what all these plugins are doing to the supposedly high performance of BBpress).

I’d like to see admin/mods have zero limits on what they put into their posts. So to write a plugin I need to find out how to check the user level, then figure out what filter to attach it to (probably pre_post)

[_ck_]

Wow this is a very serious issue – I couldn’t figure out why half my members could not log into the forum! Thought it was a cookie issue, but it was the space!

I suggest this be moved to the integration section and highly recommend to everyone trying to merge BB with WP. I would never have spotted this if it had not been bumped by signpost (who’s code did not solve it unfortunately, I had to use the plugin)

[_ck_]

I found visitors were getting really hassled by the filename restrictions so I decided to relax them while still keeping some safety since you already check mime types & file extensions

instead of:

!eregi("^([-a-z0-9_]+).([a-z]+)$", $img_name)

I reduced it to only exclude the four bad characters I can think of:

eregi("#|?|&|%", $img_name)

What do you think? Safe enough?

Is your mime check from the physical file itself or just the sent headers? Hopefully the physical file or it’s not secure enough.

My change allows people to click browse and enter a url into their file browser, which forces Windows to pull down the file first, then upload it to the site. Not sure what other OS’s will do. Windows adds [1] to the filename in the temp area, so your name filter was blocking it from uploading.

My next ideas are to give lazy people a section of default avatars to choose from instead, and to allow members several stored avatars to chose from (your table should allow multiple entries per member I think, though the code to deal with it will have to be changed of course).

[signpostmarv]

I came across the same problem on a combined wp/bbpress setup.

twas a simple case of changing line 1079, template-functions.php

$r = bb_get_option('uri') . "profile/" . $user->$column . ( 1 < $page ? "/page/$page" : '' ); to $r = bb_get_option('uri') . "profile/" . urlencode($user->$column) . ( 1 < $page ? "/page/$page" : '' );

[_ck_]

Yay! I figured out how to hack it to make it happen.

To leave the core files alone, I did it through a plugin.

The balancetags in bbpress takes less parameters than from WP.

function force_balance_tags($text) { return balanceTags($text, true);}

add_filter('pre_post', 'force_balance_tags');

Tested working.

Another nice addition in there would be to add nofollow to any post links.

add_filter('pre_post', 'bb_rel_nofollow');

[_ck_]

AHA!

I found a bug. Finally I can contribute.

WordPress does indeed auto-close tags and has a fantastic routine, the balancetags I mentioned above.

HOWEVER

it was copied raw into BBpress and it won’t work by default because it’s looking for an option that will never be set because BBpress doesn’t have it

function balanceTags($text, $is_comment = 0, $force = false) {

if ( !$force && get_option(‘use_balanceTags’) == 0 )

return $text;

See what I mean? There’s no manually way to set use_balanceTags in BBpress.

So how do we force the filter on? I know it has to be balanceTags ($text,1,1) to work.

[airdrawndagger]

Awesome! Works perfectly, thank you
