I couldn’t make a plugin for it, but you can restrict users without the “administrate” capability from accessing the site by appending this line to bb-settings.php:
if ( ! bb_current_user_can( 'administrate' ) ) { die('<p>The site is down for maintenance.</p>'); }
I followed the discussion in “Updated to Desmond But Theme Not Working”, however the proposed solutions are not working for me.
I have a IIS 6.0, windows 2003 server, MySQL 5.x and PHP 5.0 installation. Both directories “my-templates/” and “my-plungins/” are in the bbpress root. The “patch-to-URL.php” plugin is inside the “my-plugins” folder.
When looking at the source code in Firefox 2.0 I get
“<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”http://129.82.32.135forums/my-templates/kakumei/style.css” type=”text/css” />” (notice the “” before forums) and inside the admin section for the forum the themes previews are not visible, tough their names and the options to select are present.
However when using IE 7.0 the source code I get
“<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”http://129.82.32.135/forums/bb-admin/style.css” type=”text/css” />” and the themes previews are visible.
Any ideas how to fix this errors. Thanks.

It’s possible, but I think it’s difficult (much work).
What about making a template which looks the same as your XHTML document? (Featuring the same menus, navigation system etc. as your XHTML document). Then the bbPress forum looks like it’s integrated without being so.
thanks for the hack vincent, I’m glad to see you got it integrated into bbpress. I’m using your hack myself
Hi, i’ve downloaded bbPress because i’m a lover of WordPress amb because i like bbPress very much. But now i’im in a big trouble.
I want to integrate bbPress in an standard XHTML website with any line of WordPress code, and so i need to know how i can integrate it from the beggining of the process.
Now i’ve just installed bbPress in a url rute like /mydomain.com/bbpress but i need to be shown in a basic xthml document, like mydomain.com/phorum.php
How can i do this?
I think it’s possible, but can you help me?
Regards guys from Mediterranean sea.
I’m waiting a good response form you as soon as you can, thanks guys.

it’s post-form.php. doesn’t work e.g: http://ram.org.pl/forum/topic.php?id=3&page&replies=9 still doesn’t have any quicktags. should i use tiny MCE?
I can’t find the Category Patch plugin, sorry. That plugin browser is annoying. >_<
The statistics are included by default, but not linked to in the default theme. Just go to www.example.com/forums/statistics.php
and it’s there. The file for it is in your root forum folder.
I hate Tiny MCE. It’s slow and nannies you too much.
Archasek, I think you haven’t called some hooks or something. Find something like
<p>
<label for="post_content"><?php _e('Post:'); ?>
<textarea name="post_content" cols="50" rows="8" id="post_content" tabindex="3"></textarea>
</label>
</p>
and insert
<?php do_action( 'post_form_pre_post' ); ?>
In front of it, on a new line. That should make it work.

A small, 18+ forum community for my online friends . I belong to alot of forums and wanted to run one of my own that was 18+ and more low-key then the typical XMB, SMF and PHPbb forums out there. I wanted a script that could have as little or as much as I wanted through plugins without all the un-necesary bloat and bbPress does that for me !
I’m using my own modified theme off of Kakumei.
Plugins include:
– Allow Images
– Avatars
– Memberlist
– Post Count
– BBCode
– Forum Restriction
– Onlinelist
– Since Last Visit
– User Time Zones
– Category Patch
A few more plugins and the forum will be exactly what I’m looking for.

archasek, if I were you, I would have installed the Tiny MCE WYSIWYG editor instead of any quicktag plugin. The Tiny MCE It outputs valid XHTML and is by far easier to use than any bbcode system!
The CSS is fine in IE 7 at least. Looking good.
It’s got a lot more of a consistent feel to it now, which is very nice. But when you hover over links they still turn green, as do the rows in the thread listing.
Look for the a:hover
item in your CSS file to change links when hovered, and look for something like tr:hover
for the thread rows. I think the specific item for thread rows is
#latest tr:hover, #forumlist tr:hover, #favorites tr:hover
Just keep playing with it until you’re happy is the best advice.
Not sure what the DXX theme is, but if it’s the one you’re using on your site yeah it’s ultra-easy.
First of all, don’t try to force bb into the WP theme … that rarely works. Your best bet is to open (or make if it doesn’t exist) your my-templates
folder and start a new theme by making a new folder (call it dxx
or something). Go back up into your main bb folder, open bb-templates > kakumei
and copy style.css
, then paste it into your new my-templates > dxx
folder.
Using CSS you can then modify how your page looks (not what’s on it though). The basic way to do css is like this:
html element {
property: something;
}
For example, the code to colour links red with NO underline is like this:
a {
color: red;
text-decoration: none;
}
To change the way your forum looks, you therefore open the copy of style.css
you made and change properties like that. There’s much more info at http://www.w3schools.com/css/. That is all you need to know.
So for example, what you would do for your theme is make links blue and no underline, make the header green, change the background of the page and put a border on the main div
element. Some knowledge of HTML will be helpful but you can also pick this up.
Works perfectly Pravin, any chance I could get you to add the conditionals to the code snippet?
I would like anywhere the topic list is displayed, a small arrow or link next to the topic_id (or just a link) to click this and the current sort order would be changed. So if it is a normal, chronological display and the link is clicked, for it to display in reverse chronological display.
Or is this something that is too complicated?
This one too:

Its not nearly as big as Technorati but I’ve been tweaking it slowly but surely, integrating it in with a custom CMS / Wiki, WordPress, and now bbpress.
Thanks for the awesome software. I sent in a patch of themes.php last night – it needs a urldecode() in the current subversion revision.
If anyone is using ‘ Avatar pluginsuleiman, here’s a hack I use to show the WPMU’s avatar in BBPress:
In post.php, after the <small><?php post_author_title(); ?></small>
bit I use the following:
<?php
$userid = get_post_author_id();
$wp_avatar = '/full/path/to/public_html/wp-content/avatars/' .$userid. '.jpg';
$wp_avatarURL = '/wp-content/avatars/' .$userid. '.jpg';
if (file_exists($wp_avatar)) {
echo '<img class="avatar" src="'. $wp_avatarURL.'" />';
}
?>
Probably not the most elegant, but it works:

look for these lines (20-23) in topic.php
if ( !$bb_db_override ) :
$posts = get_thread( $topic_id, $page );
$forum = get_forum ( $topic->forum_id );
change to
if ( !$bb_db_override ) :
$posts = get_thread( $topic_id, $page, 1 );
$forum = get_forum ( $topic->forum_id );
get_thread
function changed
Quoting dictionary.com:
bo·zo /ˈboʊzoʊ/
–noun, plural -zos. Slang.
1. a fellow, esp. a big, strong, stupid fellow.
2. a rude, obnoxious, or annoying person: Two or three bozos tried to cut in ahead of the rest of us in the supermarket line.
Users marked bozos means that Akismet (the part of the code responsible for spam detection) has identified these as spammers, or you have manually set their status. They can post, however posts will be visible only to themselves – they will not realise that their posts are showing up to noone else. Useful precaution against spammers (it bothers no-one, they don’t try harder since they think they’re succeeding) and perhaps against trolls, although I haven’t tried that.
I also think people should realize that bbPress isn’t dsigned to be a plugin for WP in any way and the developers should keep in mind to not develop too much towards this too.
It’s a standalone forum, fast and light and should stay this way
I see now….the first topic and then reverse the order of the replies. Off the top of my head that would seem like a difficult thing to do as each reply is given an reply ID based off the previous reply ID (sequential). Displaying the order would have to be done by hacking the core files for topic.php so that is changes from desending to acending in the mySQL query. I think it can be done though, just have to look at the core code I guess.

You cannot click a checkbox that says “turn off registration”, but you can do it indirectly through the following steps by editing your theme files. If you have the default template, please upload the changed files to a new folder off the root of /my-templates/
1) Remove the following file out of your root directory, register.php.
2) Edit your template file login-form.php and remove the following:
<p><?php printf(__('<a href="%1$s">Register</a> or log in'), bb_get_option('uri').'register.php') ?>:</p>
3) Put something like the following in register.php from your template folder:
<?php bb_get_header(); ?>
<h3 class="bbcrumb"><a href="<?php bb_option('uri'); ?>"><?php bb_option('name'); ?></a> » <?php _e('Register'); ?></h3>
<h2 id="register"><?php _e('Registration Turned Off, Sorry!'); ?></h2>
<?php bb_get_footer(); ?>
Unless I am missing something, that should do it!

I’ve encountered with this error very recently, it didn’t happened before.
When a reply is posted (So far, by me the Key Master) the Topic closed message appears with no reason.
I have these plugins installed:
allow-images
bb-avatar
bb-memberlist
bb-post-count
bbpress_bbcode
fix-bbpress
forum-restriction
front-page-topics
There’s an easier way to do this, just put in the right domain.
//cookies
define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.2diabolos.com');
Or
//cookies
define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'forum.2diabolos.com');
If you go with the first, in my opinion neater version, you also need to add this to bbPress’ config.php
.
//try to sync cookies
$bb->cookiedomain = '.2diabolos.com';
$bb->cookiepath = '/';
Then clear your cookies, log out and in and see if it works across your site.
That’s pretty cool. Are there screenshots, is there anywhere running it so we can see what it’s like?
You’ve submitted it to the plugin db too, haven’t you?
