It’s on Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition.

In the config file, I have it set to:

$bb->domain = 'http://www.forum.mybbress.com';

Above though it calls http://www.forum.mybbress.com before the absolute path and http://www.forums.mybbress.com after the path.

Are you using xampp? I’ve no experience with that whatsoever, but since it’s a path on your hard drive it seems that way to me. I’ve seen a few people say they’ve had problems using bbPress with that, and someone rightly point out that if you test on xampp you’ll get a bunch of errors you wouldn’t get on a server and miss the ones you would get.

I’ve personally had no problems on my server, and if you already have hosting and an unused or wordpress db then there probably isn’t any harm in just testing it on the server.

Edit: err – hehe …

[fel64]

Aren’t themes meant to be in the /my-templates folder? Not sure if it’s necessary.

As a temporary fix, you could right-click the link, select Copy Link Location, paste it into your URL and just change the path so it links to your theme. Might be worth a try

You don’t have to know Spanish to send mail

I got your script, and it worked for me. That is, after I added an ‘l’ you deleted with a parenthesis . So it seems the problem with your second try was just a typo. In line 521 the original script said:

$import_sql = utf8_encode($import_sql);

and yours say:

$import_sql = $import_sq;

So add back the ‘l’ or delete the whole line, as it’s useless in the utf8->utf8 version.

Thanks, I will try.

I suck at code file editing, but sometimes i get lucky.

Trent, does the maintainer of the code know the localhost problem exists (yes, even with path-to-url.2.php plugin)? The only way I’ve managed to get around it is by directly editing the “bb-templates/kakumei” files.

Also, another note, I’m using lighttpd on a windows machine. This probably adds to the slash havoc.

I’ve been trying to trace which code assigns the post status to “2” for every post but I cant seem to find it since it marks every post a spam, bozo or not bozo. I dunno why.

[fel64]

I think the contents of your bbpress folder (config.php, bb-includes, bb-images etc) should have been uploaded to /otherblog/forums, and your .htaccess file should go next to them in the /otherblog/forums folder. Good luck

[wsokc]

Thanks Trent! u’re the savior…

[CMoseley]

I’m not sure exactly what your asking. I copied and pasted the code in my WordPress template into my bbPress template. Works fine in WordPress, gives me the above error in bbPress.

The code I used was:

<?php

if ($rs = aggrss('http://onctalk.com/wp-commentsrss2-custom.php'))

{

// dump the structure

//echo "<pre>";

//print_r($rs);

//echo "</pre>";

echo "<a href='" . $rs[link] . "' style='color: #000000; font-weight: bold;' >" . $rs[title] . "</a>";

echo $rs[description] . "<br />";



foreach ($rs['items'] as $item)

{

echo "<p><a href='" .$item['link']. "'>" . $item['title'] . "</a><br/>" .html_entity_decode($item['description']). "</p>";

}

if ($rs['items_count'] <= 0) { echo "Sorry, no items found in the RSS file <img src='http://www.soderlind.no/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt='' class='wp-smiley' /> "; }

}

else

{

echo "<!-- It's not possible to reach RSS file -->";

}

?>

It happens on this forum as well. You get more \every time you edit a post one is added.

Excample (used the code tags):

echo '<li><a href="link-to-your-thingy.com">Thingy-name</a></li>';

I didn’t add any in it Also code between the code tags shouldn’t be altered at all.

Every time I edit this post (and leave the in) it wil ad 1 more…

Edit:

LOL seems to be fixed now :S

[flatworm]

if ( !defined('BBPATH') )

define('BBPATH', dirname(C:AllProgramingphp&mysql SERVERwordpressbbpress) . '/' );

require_once( BBPATH . 'C:AllProgramingphp&mysql SERVERwordpressbbpress' );



?>

Are this last lines correct if the path to my bbpress is: “C:AllProgramingphp&mysql SERVERwordpressbbpress” ?

I deleted all ut8_encode. You can see my script.

>>If so, please send it to antiswen at yahoo dot es (yep, es, not com).

I don`t know spanish (yahoo dot es?), that is why i put it on my blog.

Download my script and SMF db

[fel64]

Has anyone made a plugin for quoting posts? Is it under development? It’d be great.

By the way, Trent, not sure if you still use the same CSS but instead of declaring border-xxxx: for each side you can simply declare border: and it’ll apply for all sides.

[fel64]

Have you entered all the right details in your config.php? Since you’re sharing databases it should have the same database info (name, user, password) as wordpress’s wp-config.php.

Yeah I call this a debugged version – Chrishajer sums it up nicely.

[kirkk]

To fix this, i have uploaded all my files and directories without installing them on localhost… First, i uploaded wordpress to my web server and installed it then uploaded bbpress and installed it on web server…

… before of that “above” , i had installed both of them on my localhost then i had uploaded them to my web-server, but that moment i had problems with slashes. Because there is an confusing section about slashes between the normal windows and web server…

And i recommend that do not change the folder name of your “bbpress” after u upload it to your web server . I tried it two or three times after i installed both of my wordpress and bbpress on my web server, it caused slashes to head backwards…

Now i have solved all my problems

forward to hearing from you with the same

(sorry for my english if i made any mistake, it is not my first language)

[master5o1]

I am looking for a similar/same fix. I have no smtp/mail sending abilities, and I am looking for a way to print it nicely on screen. Can one of you please explain the above ‘fix’ I’ve just begun attempting to use php so I don’t quite understand yet.

[ccmve]

I’m having a similar problem.

I’ve uploaded my custom theme to /my-templates/mytheme

The default theme is in /bb-templates/kakumei/

The site is working fine, but I see this error: “Theme not found. Default theme applied.” And I cannot switch to my custom theme. The reason is in the URL to the custom theme in the presentation>themes panel:

http:// forum.mybbpress.com/bb-admin/themes.php? theme=C:\WWW\PUBLIC\forums.mybbpress.com/ bb-templates/mytheme/&_wpnonce=36ec0251eb

Obviously that URL won’t work. I’ve uploaded both plugins above. Neither worked. How do I fix the URL to mytheme?

[lonemadmax]

New version, same link. No need to touch core files now. It relies on the bb_foot action to inject the box. More info in the README.

[fel64]

Use function_exists( string $function_name );

I don’t know how your plugin works, but if you made any calls to hooks then they simply won’t be called (as far as I understand it). Your code will probably also not be loaded. This plugin inactive shouldn’t be a problem?

[fel64]

What do you mean by manual?

You have to change some settings in config.php, but that’s it. Nothing a monkey with a keyboard and a human to do the work for him couldn’t do … really, it’s simple. No editing code or the like. Even if it’s in a different subdomain you barely have to do anything.

Certainly doesn’t sound as much work as installing Vanilla – bbPress is set up to use mostly the same tables as WP already …

[fel64]

While it sounds like somewhat useful functionality, I don’t want it – if it was enabled by default in bbPress, I’d even want to turn it off. Anything that means users can just visit once, know that they’re going to get any answers and never have to come back is that you’re going to get a lot of users who do just that. I would much rather they check regularly, sometimes see something that catches their eye and hang around … It just sounds like a feature that hinders a community building up.

[flatworm]

It requires alot of pain in the *** to install Vanilla on WordPress.

I do not want to do it manualy.

<b>Does this thing require a manual hookup?<b/>

Does it still have the bug that had to be solved by editing the code?

[lonemadmax]

I’m very sorry to hear that. The problem is most probably in the script; as I said, I’m a complete newbie to php and databases, and just modified the script without really knowing how much of it worked. The only thing I can say is: have you deleted all occurrences of ut8_encode? There are more than one. Also utf8_decode may give you problems, but I don’t think they’d be the ones your seeing.

Is there any chance that I could get a dump of your database? (A fake one, with russian characters in fake posts and fake users from SMF in the same conditions as the real one, so that I can play with it here.) If so, please send it to antiswen at yahoo dot es (yep, es, not com). Oh, and please zip it or something so that yahoo doesn’t mess with the text.

suleiman, I am still trying to figure out why the damn thing won’t install for you. I am kinda busy at the moment so it could take some time.

For template builders I have the following message:

If you build a template and want to make it compatible with bbMenu you can use the code below.

It shows the bbmenu if it is installed, if not it will show nothing (or your own hardcode menu).

……..Changing code…….. stay tuned……….
