Good work tracking that down!

What really is strange for me is safari on Mac OS X shows the page correctly anyways. What a smart browser.
Why that link is like that and the rest of the content is showing up right is strange though.
Trent
I would agree. Not really a tasteful joke, but it seems like it really was a joke. I can’t see one thing in that code that would send any information that it gets to anyone but the database you are connecting to or the file that you can have it create. I could be missing something and would appreciate it if others would also check this, but I don’t think there is anything wrong here.
Trent
I have looked over the code of this plugin and it doesn’t send your email to spammers. Jaim3 even put this in the code:
// DISCLAIMER: This is a joke
echo "<li><h3>Sending all your database e-mails to all major world-wide spam sending mafias...</h3></li>";
If someone else wants to look to confirm, but it does what it is intended to as far as I am concerned.
Trent
Thanks for the reply Trent.. 
Yeah, you have a good point there! I guess I was just tired of too many dang folders in the forum’s root directory lol.. 
Oh well.. when I do the actual upgrading here, I’ll re-add that folder and such.. 
spencerp
Awesome! Thanks Sam.. I’ll apply this path on the PC first, modify my theme files accordingly.. then upload them all..
spencerp
I’m assuming this path works just as good right?
/root directory/bb-templates/your-theme/
That’s what I am doing at the present time, w/o the latest upgrade though of course.. I’ll get on updating it here soon.. just wanted to wait until ALL the dang commits were really over lmao..

Well, in this case I am calling the header file from wordpress on the bbpress pages. The only problem is that I have things in the bbpress header like
bb_is_user_logged_in()
and
is_topic()
which create tons of problems when I put that code in the wp header file. I was able to load wp when bbpress loads, but it seems like the opposite would also be useful, to register bbpress when wp loads. I suppose through reverse engineering, I could figure that out on my own?! Otherwise, I would like to just be able to tell the page, “Hey, are you wordpress, then load this…otherwise, don’t load it. And if your BBPress, then load this, otherwise don’t load it”.
Currently I am also trying to specify which stylesheets to load. If it’s wp, I want the wp stylesheet, and if it’s bb, I want the bb stylesheet, and I don’t want the conflicts when both load.
1 – Does this make sense?
B – Is there a solution? and
4 – Am I overlooking a more obvious solution?

What kind of content are you trying to distinguish between? Theme content or actual content? With wordpress being a blog and bbPress a forum, the content itself would be different. I guess I don’t quite understand exactly what you are trying to do. Could you explain to me like I am 5 years old (my wife says I act that old anyways
Trent
Ok, I am trying to serve up content based on whether a user is on the WP side of my site, or on the BB side. Trent, you helped me with this earlier, but you helped me find a much more common sense solution to the problem in that situation.
Here’s what I’m wondering: Is there any way to say “if bbpress” then do this, or “if wordpress” then do this? I can’t seem to find the code I need to tell wordpress AND bbpress to both understand and accept this discrimination. Thanks
Ron
Outstanding. Works as advertised.
Now I have to “borrow” your path structure and fix my graphic-display-ranks plugin
just hardcode it. Change BBPLUGINDIR to “/my-plugins”
You have the new link for Customizing Permalinks? If so, could you please send it to me in email? I have a contact form on my site. I followed the Documentation link, but it isn’t there any longer. Not having a search function on the site hurts. Ouch. 
TIA,
-dave
I’m stumped then. You win the prize !
I’m having a problem with the plugin bb-ratings using 0.8
I think the problem is here:
<img src="<?php bb_option( 'uri' ); echo BBPLUGINDIR; ?>/star.gif" />
From the source code:
<img src="http://www.brightandearlyblog.com/bbPress//home/brightan/public_html/bbPress/my-plugins//star.gif" />
I would imagine that you have the following in config.php:
// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.
$bb->mod_rewrite = true;
Maybe change that to the following until you get the install up and running:
// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.
$bb->mod_rewrite = false;
After that, head over to the documentation => Custimization = > Permalinks of the navbar at the top.

I am sure Micheal can fix this quickly, but maybe try this until he gets around to it:

I just hardcoded the new template directory. Not a long term fix. mdawaffe will have a fix soon enough!

I tried something… I changed the User Type to Blocked for the main user, the only user… And it worked… I couldn’t use bbpress anymore…
Is this a bug? The user shouldn’t be able to disable itself…
Trent… don’t remember where I picked it from it’s called the Force-login… did someone here give me the code and I copied and pasted it… not sure… here’s the code…

Haven’t checked it the bbpress-integration (bbpress-wp same users share) is working or not.
Post a link to the plugin you are using or the code for it. We can fix it quickly here for the login only plugin. The display name is on the plugins site. We can fix that one after fixing your Important issue first.
Trent
Please don’t put anything in bb-templates! This will be problematic for you later.
Put your templates in a subdirectory of my-templates/
Check out https://bbpress.org/documentation/themes/
Glad to here! Maybe a few release templates for bbPress then
Trent
It seems goofy to be discussing WP on a bbPress forum, but this is important for theme integration between the 2. Here is my login form in my sidebar (well ex sidebar as I use wordpress.com now). I use a conditional to welcome the user or display the login form.
<li id="login">
<?php
global $user_ID, $user_identity;
get_currentuserinfo();
if (!$user_ID):
?>
<label for="s"><?php _e('Login:'); ?></label>
<ul>
<li>
<form name="loginform" id="loginform" action="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/wp-login.php" method="post">
<div><label><?php _e('Login') ?>:<br /><input type="text" name="log" id="log" value="" size="15" tabindex="7" /></label><br />
<label><?php _e('Password') ?>:<br /> <input type="password" name="pwd" id="pwd" value="" size="15" tabindex="8" /></label><br />
<input type="hidden" name="rememberme" value="forever" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="<?php _e('Login'); ?> »" tabindex="9" /><br />
<?php wp_register('', ''); ?>
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_to" value="<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>"/></div>
</form></li>
<li><script type="text/javascript">slvBanner();</script></li></ul>
<?php
else:
?>
<label for="s">Welcome <?php echo $user_identity; ?>!</label>
<ul>
<?php wp_register(); ?>
<li><a href="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl') . '/wp-login.php?action=logout&redirect_to=' . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>"><?php _e('Logout'); ?></a></li>
</ul>
<?php
endif;
?>
</li>
Trent
So, maybe my problem is that I haven’t included ALL the code from wp-login in the sidebar…instead I’ve just included the code necessary to get them redirected to the wp-login.php to actually be logged in…Here’s what it looks like. Maybe you can make sense of it:
<!--BEGIN SIDEBAR-->
<?php
$user_login = '';
$user_pass = '';
$using_cookie = false;
if ( !isset( $_REQUEST['redirect_to'] ) )
$redirect_to = 'wp-admin/';
else
$redirect_to = $_REQUEST['redirect_to'];
if( $_POST ) {
$user_login = $_POST['log'];
$user_login = sanitize_user( $user_login );
$user_pass = $_POST['pwd'];
$rememberme = $_POST['rememberme'];
} else {
$cookie_login = wp_get_cookie_login();
if ( ! empty($cookie_login) ) {
$using_cookie = true;
$user_login = $cookie_login['login'];
$user_pass = $cookie_login['password'];
}
}
do_action('wp_authenticate', array(&$user_login, &$user_pass));
?>
<span class="sidenav_top"> </span>
<ul class="sidenav_body" style="">
<li><h2>Login:</h2></li>
<?php
global $userdata;
get_currentuserinfo();
global $user_identity;
if (!$userdata) {
?>
<li style="padding-left: 10px; overflow: hidden;">
<form name="loginform" id="loginform" action="/wp-login.php" method="post">
<p style="margin: 0px; height: 25px; width: 175px;">
<label style="font-size: 11px; text-align: right; width: 76px; display: block; float: left; clear: left;"><?php _e('Username:') ?> </label>
<input style="float: right;" type="text" name="log" id="log" value="<?php echo wp_specialchars(stripslashes($user_login), 1); ?>" size="13" tabindex="1" />
</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; height: 25px; width: 175px;">
<label style="font-size: 11px; text-align: right; width: 76px; display: block; float: left; clear: left;"><?php _e('Password:') ?> </label>
<input style="float: right;" type="password" name="pwd" id="pwd" value="" size="13" tabindex="2" />
</p>
<p style="margin: 0px; height: 22px; float: right; margin-right: 10px; clear: both;">
<label style="font-size: 12px;"><input name="rememberme" type="checkbox" id="rememberme" value="forever" tabindex="3" />
<?php _e('Remember me'); ?></label></p>
<p class="submit" style="height: 35px;">
<input style="float: right; clear: both; margin-right: 10px;" type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="<?php _e('Login'); ?> »" tabindex="4" />
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_to" value="index.php" />
</p>
</form>
I am guessing the difference between how I have it set up and how you have it is that I am sending the user to wp-login whereas you are authenticating right there on that page. I tried to get the sidebar to do all the work, but I ran into errors I couldn’t fix on my own…do you have a suggestion for how I might handle the logins in the sidebar? Do you maybe have code I can look at to see how you’re doing it?
Once again, I think this is done by default. WP has its theme and content. bbPress has its theme and content.
As usual..more details.
I am really trying to use elements from wp on the bb side, such as sidebar…so I’m calling
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
on pages like this one:
http://babyquestions101.com/forum/
However, I have so many questions as to how to handle the login box in sidebar…Should it:
– Go to BBPress login/register page always (wp or bb)
– Go to WP login/register page always
– Go to respective login/register pages depending on which side the click originated?
Then, depending on that configuration, redirect questions ensue.
I know this is probably a matter of preference, but I’m indifferent, and wondering what will overall be the best solution for the user. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
– Login Redirects to last visited page
It seems to me that if you are integrated, both bbPress and WP use the wp_users table in the database so wherever you login will be redirected to the last visited page (as both programs do this now). It is easy to have th login in the header.php of your template in bbPress and just adding the login box to WP in sidebar also has login on every page.
I have already made a tweak to the redirect in wp-admin to go back to the homepage in wp. I did this because it was redirecting to the profile.php page when a user logged in, instead of to the last page they were visiting. Is that the default behavior, or did I miss something? I am on wp v.2.0.5, so maybe something has changed in version 2.1 which changes this behavior?
