I have WP and bbPress integrated and have no problem logging in as admin in WP then also being admin in bbPress. I have the opposite problem (not really a problem): when I log into bbPress as a normal user, and I try to access wp-admin, it gives me an error about not having sufficient permissions. In wp-admin > users, I edited the permissions for the “normal” bbPress user, and he can act as admin at WP now. Never tried to admin bbPress as that user…

I think it’s probably something else: I did not require the hack you are suggesting to make this work.

In bbPress, does it say:

Welcome, admin! View your profile» (Admin | Logout)

up top?

If it does, clicking the Admin link there will take you to the bbPress dashboard. Is that not happening for you?

Nevermind, I fixed it.

Just kidding.

I hate it when people dont post how.

I left a ‘ in there after editing the config. It was unattached to anything.

Hence the error.

Again ^ re-iterating my suggestion that you take away the config editing at least superficially (ie you can if you really must) and have it as fields in a PHP form so you cant f*** it up.

I have successfully integrated WordPress and BBPress (http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/12?replies=25#post-2502) but I am having 1 problem..

When I log in as admin in BBPress, it seems to be logging me in with the ‘admin’ account from WordPress, and not giving it admin privileges on the BBPress system, (ie: i can’t go to /bb-admin to edit anything).

The only thing i can think of is somehow excluding the ‘admin’ account integration when you log into bbpress, something like

if ($user=='admin') { #skip integration }

Or is there something I am missing..?

I took the config down because it was publishing the entire file before the function error – ie all my passwords were freely advertised!

Anyway I tried again with a fresh config:

http://www.cjgavin.com/bbpress/bb-admin/install.php

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/virtual/site122/fst/var/www/html/bbpress/config.php on line 53

Better than undefined function.

(line 53) $bb->wp_home = ‘http://www.cjgavin.com’; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash

Whats wrong with that??

Lines 52 > 54:

$bb->;wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_;’

$bb->;wp_home = ‘http://www.cjgavin.com’;

$bb->;wp_siteurl = ‘http://www.cjgavin.com’;

When I go here:

http://www.cjgavin.com/bbpress/

I get this:

There doesn't seem to be a config.php file. I need this before we can get started. Open up config-sample.php, fill in your details, and save it as config.php.

Did you rename config-sample.php to config.php?

When I try to load config-sample.php directly, I get this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ':' in /home/virtual/site122/fst/var/www/html/bbpress/config-sample.php on line 53

Maybe that colon is related to one of the wp_ URL lines (URLs must be quoted.)

Hang in there: you’re close.

[chrishajer]

I wonder if the problem with this line:

bb_get_user($bb_post->poster_id)->user_login

is related to this style syntax and could be fixed in a similar manner (if necessary):

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/401?replies=42#post-2140

[chrishajer]

Update: the above was working, but on the command line, php -l complained:

parse error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in … that line

I got this to work:

<?php _e(' by ') ?><a href="<?php user_profile_link($bb_post->poster_id); ?>"><?php echo get_user_name($bb_post->poster_id); ?></a>

That’s what was suggested initially: I’ m not sure what I did wrong the first time around, but this is what is working now, with no parse errors. Thanks.

[chrishajer]

<?php _e(' by ')?><?php echo bb_get_user($bb_post->poster_id)->user_login ?>

Returns the user’s name. Perfect. Thanks.

[ardentfrost]

Try this

echo bb_get_user($bb_post->poster_id)->user_login

Or you can try to do it the way topics do it and just use this:

post_author_link();

That will also return the name as a link to their webpage.

Worth a try I guess.

[chrishajer]

bb_get_user($bb_post->poster_id) also did not work (does not error, just shows no output.)

also

$bb_post->poster_id does not return anything either.

[chrishajer]

That does not work

Here is the code I am using:

<?php foreach ( $recent as $bb_post ) : ?>

<li><a href="<?php post_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title($bb_post->topic_id); ?></a><small> <?php _e('Posted') ?> <?php echo date(__('F j, Y, h:i A'), bb_get_post_time()); ?><?php _e(' by ')?><?php get_user_name($bb_post->poster_id) ?></small>

seems like it should work. It doesn’t error out, it’s just blank after the ” by “

Is there a list of functions, similar to the WP codex, where I could learn about them?

Thanks.

[ardentfrost]

You should be able to do this:

get_user_name($bb_post->poster_id)

Tell me if that doesn’t work.

[ardentfrost]

Not a bad idea. It doesn’t seem like it’d be too hard, and I think you could probably gank a lot of the post notification code someone else wrote to do it.

[chrishajer]

I’ve modified search.php a bit to make the results a little more readable (to my eye) and I was wondering how to get the poster name, to display with the results for recent posts and relevant posts.

I would like to display something like:

<a href="<?php post_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title($bb_post->topic_id); ?></a> <small><?php _e('Posted') ?> <?php echo date(__('F j, Y, h:i A'), bb_get_p

ost_time()); ?></small> [BY MEMBER]

the [BY MEMBER] part, to get the name of the member who made the post that is listed is the part I need help with. Thank you.

[ardentfrost]

The function topic_resolved() echo’s back whether the topic is resolved, not resolved, or not a support question. You can even change what it echo’s by passing strings to the function.

Otherwise you want the function get_topic_resolved($id) which will return yes, no, or mu (for it is resolved, it’s not resolved, or it’s not a support question).

But if you don’t like that method, you can always get it straight from the database… it’s just more work for the server that way.

Not very had to write plugins if you are a coder and look at pluggable.php as it uses a similar structure as WordPress. Right out of the box, bbPress may never work straight away with WP plugins without a core change in code.

Fixed it myself. It was the: FROM $bbdb->portal" that didn’t work. Changed it into FROM ".$bb_table_prefix."portal" and added $bb_table_prefix; in the global as well and all seems to work fine now.

Working code:

$pforum_id = $bbdb->get_var("SELECT pforum_id FROM ".$bb_table_prefix."portal");

Thx for the suggestions given

naw, it’s ok. Spencer just gets the weirdest problems with stuff, but I still got it tested

I have successfully setup my site to integrate registrations/logins between wordpress on its own DB and domain (blog.bakedlog.com) and bbpress on its own DB and domain (forum.bakedlog.com).

Files:

WP: wp-content/plugins/bbpress-integration.php

BBP: my-plugins/wordpress-integration.php

• I can create a user in wordpress and log into bbpress with it.
• I can create a user in bbpress and log into wordpress with it.(although the default role set for wordpress does not let me write (how do i change this?))

However, I too cannot get cookies to authenticate between the two systems.

I have included the following in bbpress’s config.php:

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

$bb->cookiepath = '/';

I monitored the cookies created on my computer as I logged into each system, and noticed that bbpress was creating the cookie correctly, domain: bakedlog.com, while when I logged into wordpress it would set the domain on the cookie to blog.bakedlog.com.

So the problem is with WordPress..

Looking in WordPress’ wp-settings.php I see:

if ( !defined('USER_COOKIE') )

define('USER_COOKIE', 'wordpressuser');

if ( !defined('PASS_COOKIE') )

define('PASS_COOKIE', 'wordpresspass');

if ( !defined('COOKIEPATH') )

define('COOKIEPATH', $current_site->path );

if ( !defined('SITECOOKIEPATH') )

define('SITECOOKIEPATH', $current_site->path );

if ( !defined('COOKIE_DOMAIN') )

define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.' . $current_site->domain);

So, in WordPress’ wp-config.php I inserted:

// BBPRESS INTEGRATION

define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'bakedlog.com');

Clearing my cookies and logging into WordPress, I see the cookie domain is correct and matches my BBPress’.

But, there is still another problem, the cookies set by BBPress appends an md5 hash based on the site url and table prefix to the cookie’s name (ie: wordpressuser_bf17f59023eb22f…..) while WordPress’ cookie name is only: wordpressuser

I looked around in bb-settings.php and found:

define('BBHASH', $bb->wp_siteurl ? md5($bb->wp_siteurl) : md5($bb_table_prefix) );

if ( !isset( $bb->usercookie ) )

$bb->usercookie = ( $bb->wp_table_prefix ? 'wordpressuser_' : 'bb_user_' ) . BBHASH;

if ( !isset( $bb->passcookie ) )

$bb->passcookie = ( $bb->wp_table_prefix ? 'wordpresspass_' : 'bb_pass_' ) . BBHASH;

So, the next step is to define $bb->usercookie and $bb->passcookie in BBPress’ config.php:

// COOKIE SHARING WITH WORDPRESS

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

$bb->cookiepath = '/';

$bb->usercookie = 'wordpressuser';

$bb->passcookie = 'wordpresspass';

I cleared my cookies and tested it, VOILA! I can log into either section (bbpress or wordpress) and switch to the other without losing authentication!

==========SOLUTION===========

BBPRESS CONFIG.PHP:

// COOKIE SHARING WITH WORDPRESS

$bb->usercookie = 'wordpressuser';

$bb->passcookie = 'wordpresspass';

WORDPRESS WP-CONFIG.PHP:

// COOKIE SHARING WITH BBPRESS

define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'bakedlog.com');

==========********===========

Thats it I believe, let me know if it works for you or if you see anything I have done that could crash either program.

I would imagine that this will not occur in the core code. This is something that can be added through a plugin (as with image plugin) and will be worked on by members of this community as time progresses. It shouldn’t be too long for something like this to surface, but it will take a little time.

one question … I take simply …

I have several plugin about layout on my WP posts …

I can for example do this

[video]url-youtube-video[/video] … and I have a video with all the good code …

or …

[name-of-my-link->url-of-my-link] and my link has the good name … The question is … with integration, is it possible, by default, the forum has these possibilities ?

[chrishajer]

Hi again. It appears the notification includes the name of the member who started the topic, not the last poster? All the notifications I’ve received have listed the member who started the topic.

I guess “By:” in the notification could mean the thread was started “by” or the reply was “by” – that part is ambiguous. Was this supposed to send the name of the last person who posted?

Seems like this will send the name of the member who started the topic:

$topic->topic_poster_name

Is there a way to see who the last comment was posted by to see if it’s worth logging on to see the comment?

[vaelrith]

Are there any plans for integrating bb code instead of using the “Allowed markup” in posts? Or is there a way to make a plugin for this?

[ardentfrost]

The thing is, they kinda F with each other. The way they’re implemented is they setup the profile keys seperately (via a filter). I need a way to figure out how to call the profile keys, return them and ADD one to it.

Anyone know how to do that? S010 maybe?

[Null]

Already tried that (forgot to put it here too):

$pforum_id = $bbdb->get_var("SELECT pforum_id FROM $bbdb->portal");

But it doesn’t get the 1 out of the db. The query is good cause in phpMA it does return the 1. I get an error using this:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'ORDER BY topic_time DESC LIMIT 0,10' at line 1]

SELECT * FROM bb_topics WHERE forum_id = ORDER BY topic_time DESC LIMIT 0,10

As you can see, the 1 isn’t pulled/ used (WHERE forum_id = ?)
