Hmm it should have entries, something went wrong there.

If you can, delete the bb_menu table.

Then in phpMyAdmin:

CREATE TABLE bb_menu (

set varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',

item varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',

page varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',

location varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',

order int(9) NOT NULL default '0',

PRIMARY KEY (set,item)

) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

If your current bb_menu already has these values, you wont have to recreate it. But better save then sorry…

Now fill the table:

INSERT INTO bb_menu VALUES ('active', 'Forums', 'index.php', 'front-page', 0)

INSERT INTO bb_menu VALUES ('active', 'Search', 'search.php', 'search-page', 1)

INSERT INTO bb_menu VALUES ('available', 'Statistics', 'statistics.php', 'stats-page', 0)

Now refresh the admin page. This should fix it. Not sure if I gave the right syntaces to use in phpMyAdmin, but you get the idea

ps. If you didn’t use the bb_ prefix, you should change this…

ps2. And leave out the @

ps3. This is the beta so it has some errors that are fixed in the final release (after bbPress 0.8 is out)

Where did you install it? Did you install more plugins? Which version of bbPress are you running? Is the bb_menu table created? Did you refresh the page and still get the error? What MySQL/ php version do you use?

I need more info

[macwise]

I seem to be having a similar problem here, but when I add:

require_once('/wp-content/themes/BabyQuestions101/header.php');

in my bb config.php file, I get this error:

Warning: main(/wp-content/themes/BabyQuestions101/header.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in path/to/babyquestions101.com/forum/config.php on line 3

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/wp-content/themes/BabyQuestions101/header.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /path/to/babyquestions101.com/forum/config.php on line 3

(the require_once code is just below the php tag, like this:

<?php

require_once('/wp-content/themes/BabyQuestions101/header.php');

// ** MySQL settings ** //

define('BBDB_NAME', '////'); // The name of the database...

I can’t seem to make this error go away.

Also, is it true that with bbpress .75 I now DO NOT need to add the following line to my config.php file?:

define('WP_BB',true);

Any help here would be appreciated.

[flaerpen]

heheh, we should do this for all releases on THIS thread!.

until we comes up to 8.0 ???

[flaerpen]

c’ mon then

[Null]

1 ticket left, release it!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D

[spencerp]

God, I hope so.. I’m getting tired of constantly adding the Forum Categories enhancement to the latest SVN trunk files, and then uploading them again lmao..

I think I’ll just wait now, until .80 is full-blown released, and you’re done doing .80alpha SVN commits hahaha. /Me thinks: dang! It’s planned to go into 1.0 anyway, so.. I guess I’ll have to worry about that transition or whatever then too. Oh well..

Greets:

I think I’ve noticed with bbpress is how it handles tags made after a post is created. We have someone over at the wp.com forums who goes back through and adds tags into the threads which is cool. The only issue is that she (I have a feeling I know who it is) puts everything into the line at once. For example she’ll add in:

blogdesk offline blogging tool

into the line of a thread that’s already in existance and then hit enter. All that goes in as one tag.

Does the software do that on purpose or is that just an oversight?

Thanks,

[flaerpen]

okey, I tried that but I cant get it work. I just copied the code you wrote and changed the domain. For the moment I’m testing my forum in my localhost. This is the code I use:

$bb->usercookie = 'wordpressuser';

$bb->passcookie = 'wordpresspass';

$bb->cookiedomain = 'localhost';

$bb->cookiepath = '/';

I can add that I’m a totally newbie to cookies!

[ear1grey]

Cool! So now the CSS fix?

[Null]

ps ow and ear1grey, thx for your help and patience

[Null]

I FINALLY fixed it!! YESSSSSSSSSSSSS

What did I do? Well simply replace bb_get_location output with: front-page.

It even doesn’t chance the page id

Perhaps it’s a “dirty” fix, but it works:

function get_bb_menu() {

global $bbdb;

$pemal = get_bb_location();

$pemal = str_replace('topic-page', 'front-page', $pemal);

$pemal = str_replace('profile-page', 'front-page', $pemal);

-normal code goes here-

Going to do some more testing and then it’s ready for release!

[flaerpen]

where do I put the code? In my bb-config or wp-config or somewhere else?

[tominated]

Is it possible to integrate a bbpress forum into an existing site (so i don’t have to mess around with making a theme for bbpres) by using php functions? I am not very good (that is an overstatement) at php. I followed a tutorial that let me integrate a wordpress blog into my site, and this is the code it gave me

what would i have to do to get bbpress integrated into my site? I heard somewhere that the function names are very similar to wordpress, so what code would i put in to get the forum categories then the recent posts, etc.?

[Trent Adams]

The cookies part can be daunting in the beginning to add, but once you figure it out, it is not so bad. Sometimes placing in the cookie path isn’t enough and you have to add the locations of the cookies and the names. Let me give you some examples:

My blog is in a couple different folders so I use this:

$bb->usercookie = 'wordpressuser';

$bb->passcookie = 'wordpresspass';

$bb->cookiedomain = '.onvertigo.com';

$bb->cookiepath = '/';

Trent you are a guru!

It works now! Thankyou so so much!

Wahoo!

You are a legend!

Cheers

Adam

require_once

('/home/lumanati/www/blog/wp-blog-header.php');

[Trent Adams]

I would request that from the author in that plugin post that you referenced above. I would imagine that it wouldn’t be too hard to change the code if you know how the plugin works!

Trent

[Trent Adams]

Currently annoynmous posting isn’t in the cards, but maybe a plugin will surface now that in the next version to be released, the login code is pluggable….

Trent

[Trent Adams]

It seems it isn’t finding the file…..try:

require_once

('/home/lumanati/www/blog/wp-blog-header.php');

that or:

require_once

('home/lumanati/www/blog/wp-blog-header.php');

Trent

[sbpmedia]

I’ll try to add TinyMCE in the morning.

I hope i can figure it out

[ateale]

Hi Trent thanks for your help!

i made those changes but still seem to get this error:

Warning: main(www/blog/wp-blog-header.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/lumanati/www/blog/bbpress/config.php on line 3

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'www/blog/wp-blog-header.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/lumanati/www/blog/bbpress/config.php on line 3

i have no idea!

thanks for your help so far!

I brain locked. bb_head is probably too late for this. Is there an equivalent of the ‘init’ hook for bbPress? In WordPress, that filter hook gets run after the environment initializes. That’s when the code I included would need to be run. I can’t seem to find an applicable filter hook called that early.

[ear1grey]

Tip: you really need to stop repeating the errors that have been debugged for you.

You cannot do $rw["location"] == get_bb_location() because you are comparing (on the left hand side of the ==) the name of a function with (on the right hand side of the ==) the result of a function.

You could do:

if ( call_user_func($rw["location"]) == get_bb_location() ) {

// do something

}

But that’s probably not going to achieve what you’re trying to do because it’s going to depend on what the function actually does (whose name is stored in $rw[“location”]) … so if it returns a boolean value, then it’s not going to work because get_bb_location() returns a page name.

Incidentally the whole idea of storing the name of the function in the database is slightly more black belt than “noob” territory. You’d be better off storing a flag in the DB then translating the flag into a function name in the your code, because it’s more easily traced.

Isn’t there a simpler way?

Probably – describe in words (not code) exactly what you hope to achieve in the piece of code that is not working (this is often a healthy trick when something doesn’t work – by articulating the problem you can often recognize if you’ve overlooked something obvious or better in the design).

[baptiste]

Would the solution be to execute a stripslashes_deep on GET, POST, etc if WP_BB is true? Seems kinda dangerous – but bbpress doesn’t expect this in a non-integrated environment, so undoing what wp-settings.php does (which gets run when you include wp-config to get the WordPress API) seems harmless enough.

Maybe something along the lines of:

function bb_undo_wp_slashes() {

$_GET = stripslashes_deep($_GET );

$_POST = stripslashes_deep($_POST );

$_COOKIE = stripslashes_deep($_COOKIE);

$_SERVER = stripslashes_deep($_SERVER);

}

and call that as a filter for bb_head?

if (defined('WP_BB') && WP_BB) add_action('bb_head', 'bb_undo_wp_slashes');

I think bb_head is called after the environment is setup.

I may give this a try. Thoughts from developers who know more about bbPress than I?
