Thanks mate; that worked awesome! I added a second function so the forum count was corrected also:

<?php

function bb_decrement_topic( $value ) {

return $value-1;

}

function bb_decrement_forum( $value ) {

global $forum;

return $value-get_forum_topics();

}

add_filter( 'get_topic_posts', 'bb_decrement_topic', 1);

add_filter( 'get_forum_posts', 'bb_decrement_forum', 1);

?>

I also had to change line 699 in template-functions.php to:

$posts = sprintf('%1$s %2$s', $post_num, __ngettext( 'reply', 'replies', $post_num ));

If anyone has a suggestion for doing this in the plugin instead of modifying the core, let me know.

[wizbor]

Yes right at the top right after <?php

The congfig.php file at the bottom where it asks about wp intigration also has a statement.

//define(‘WP_BB’, true); When I uncokmmented that it failed so I changed WP_BB to wp_bb and it worked. I’ve set up the wp url and siteurl as well. This all works.

So when I added your code to the top I’ve tried all combinations, that is, lowercase, commenting out the define(‘WP_BB’, true); at the bottom of the config file etc.

Thanks for responding!

Okay, first thing’s first… if this is the forum on the bbPress site itself, it really needs to be a bit more of a better example. As it is, when I get to the forum I’m first faced with a giant tagcloud, then I have to scroll all the way down past a huge list of posts to get to the actual individual forums such as this one. Of course, I could hit the button to start a new topic at the top of the top of the page but not only is that counterintuitive, it’s a really bad idea in general that will get people just Pcoming in and posting without looking at other posts first. I’d hoped the layout would have been changed by now at least.

Second problem, and this is one I’ve had on the wordpress forums as well but never bothered to ask about it. At the bottom of the post box it lists allowed tags (shortly after mentioning “Enter a few words (called tags)” with a link to the tagcloud rather than a definition of tags), but what gets me is “Put code in between backticks.” I’ve been running forums since before ISPs could offer residential Internet connections and yet I have absolutely no clue what that means. Unless this software is only meant for WordPress users (which I’m one of, btw), it would be best to get a bit more accessible to ordinary people in terms of language/jargon.

My other large beef is that the forums read like blog comments rather than forum discussions. Threading would be my number one request if I intended to use it. I guess my number two request would be integrating said threaded comments into the comments section of blog entries for those using it with a WP blog, though that’s a lot more complicated. I’d want to start off with the other way around by having the blog able to automatically display posts from certain sections such as Announcements and such. I’m not sure if that functionality exists yet, so apologies if it does. If not, I suppose a workaround could be reading the rss feed from that section into the blog section, but aggregating your own feeds is a fairly silly notion.

That’s it for initial feedback right now. I may come take another look when the software has matured a bit… by that I mean the core, it shouldn’t have to depend on plugins and themes to have very basic funcionality on its own.

Ps. Oh, and I’ve had strange issues logging in here on two seperate occasions.

[salatti]

It works good!!

Thank you very much!!

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Strange – it worked for me.

Make sure that userspace.php has no whitespace before the <?php or after the ?>

[edwinkort]

Thanks I just found out

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Try

$bb->wp_home = 'http://passionforcinema.com';

$bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://passionforcinema.com';

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

No easily.

Try:

<a href="<?php user_profile_link( $topic->topic_last_poster ); ?>" title="User Profile"><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></a>

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

In addition to editing bbPress’ cookie information, you will have to edit WordPress’:

for both bbPress and WordPress

the domain should be .salatti.net (note the first .)

the path should be /

So in bbPress’ config.php:

$bb->cookiedomain = ‘.salatti.net’;

$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;

in WordPress’ wp-config.php:

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.salatti.net’);

define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

define(‘SITECOOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

Let us know how it works.

[Atsutane]

Just login to your db using phpMyAdmin and delete all bbpress related database I think it should start with “bb_”

[marky]

You can search here: https://bbpress.org/forums/search.php

(I have no idea why there isn’t a link to that page from the main page, or even in the main bbPress theme, but that’s a different topic altogether.

As far as I understand, to uninstall and re-install you’d only have to drop the tables from the database. Unless you changed the template files or something, I don’t think you’d need to delete any of the files.

[edwinkort]

Tried this again, but still the same error This time I even used a text editor for coding, so I could see if there was something wrong.

[Atsutane]

PHP Warning: rawurlencode() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/spider/public_html/wp/wp-includes/classes.php on line 1658

Well i have that problem when i integrate my bbpress with wordpress. It only happen when i view “manage->post” and “manage->pages”. I already edit the classes.php and it only fix my “manage->post”. My “manage->pages” are still broken.

If i disable the integration, everything work perfectly without any error. Anyone know how to fix this thing?

[Atsutane]

@kannued

Actually u can load bbpress into wordpress I have tried it and it work perfectly. https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/61?replies=3

[ear1grey]

Try this… copy bb-template/front-page.php to my-templates/front-page.php and then in that file find:

<th><?php _e('Posts'); ?></th>

then change ‘Posts’ to ‘Replies’. Now, in your my-plugins folder create a file called decrement-posts.php and put this in it:

<?php

function bb_decrement( $value ) {

return $value-1;

}

add_filter( 'get_topic_posts', 'bb_decrement', 1);

?>

Changes I made:

example: http://overnights.org/profile/2

style.css

#userinfo { margin: 10px 0 5px; width:45%; float:left;}

#userinfo dt { font-weight: bold; }

#userinfo dd { margin: 0 0 5px; }

#useractivity { margin: 10px 0 5px; width:45%; float:right;}

#useractivity dt { font-weight: bold; }

#useractivity dd { margin: 0 0 5px; }

profile.php

<?php bb_profile_data(); ?>

<div id="useractivity">

<h3><?php _e('User Activity') ?></h3>

<dt><?php _e('Recent Replies'); ?></dt>

<?php if ( $posts ) : ?>

<?php foreach ($posts as $bb_post) : $topic = get_topic( $bb_post->topic_id ) ?>

<dd><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a> <?php if ( $user->ID == $bb_current_user->ID ) _e('You last replied'); else _e('User last replied'); ?>: <?php bb_post_time(); ?> ago.

<?php

if ( strtotime(bb_get_post_time()) < strtotime(get_topic_time()) ) {

echo ' <span class="freshness">'. __('Most recent reply: ');

topic_time();

echo ' ago.</span>';

} else {

echo ' <span class="freshness">'. __('No replies since.') .'</span>';

}

?>

</dd>

<?php endforeach; ?>

<?php else : if ( $page ) : ?>

<?php _e('No more replies.') ?>

<?php else : ?>

<?php _e('No replies yet.') ?>

<?php endif; endif; ?>

<dt><?php _e('Threads Started') ?></dt>

<?php if ( $threads ) : ?>

<?php foreach ($threads as $topic) : ?>

<dd><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title();

?></a> <?php printf(__('Started %s ago'), get_topic_start_time()) ?>

<?php

if ( strtotime(get_topic_start_time()) < strtotime(get_topic_time()) ) {

echo '<span class="freshness"> '. __('Most recent reply: ');

topic_time();

echo ' ago.</span>';

} else {

echo '<span class="freshness"> '. __('No replies.') .'</span>';

}

?>

</dd>

<?php endforeach; ?>

</div>

[Nola1974]

No, I see what he means. Saying “1 post” is redundant.. if there wasn’t one post in that topic, the topic wouldn’t exist. It should say “REPLIES” and list the number of posts in the topic, minus 1 (the original post.)

How we do that, I have no idea.. I’m still trying to find a list of template tags and attributes.

[Nola1974]

btw, my installation is at http://overnights.org – come log on while I figure this out.. overnighters, unite!

[AphelionZ]

The quickest way to hide the forums is to simply delete the elements from the UI in the templates. Do you edit HTML or know somebody that does?

Just use <!– and –> to comment out the registration link, or comment out the php that renders it

You can also use an .htaccess file to make your forums directory password protected with a master user:pass.

If this is over your head, like i said, ask somebody. ask me!

The login problem seems to be troubling a lot of people, including myself.

[bpartch]

Hello

There is apparently some issue with the install or something as it is not getting your .css file. If you try to visit the .css url you get an internal server error:

http://n22.awardspace.com/forums/bb-templates/style.css

I am not sure what the easiest way is to fix this but I would uninstall and reinstall it again making sure all the stuff in the config.php file is accurate.

Someone else may have a easier solution.

Hope this helps.

[RedSkunk]

Please! You’ll have to be patient.. we are lucky we got this phpBB to bbpress importer this quickly.. jeesh! I’m sure brunotorre will probably make up more import scripts then..

If not brunotorre, then someone else I’m sure.. We’ll just have to be patient here.. Just my 2 cents …

I was able to use his script to bring over all of my users, just by modifying the table names that it was calling for from phpBB. But his code got more complicated, especially for the posts.. For someone who has a firm grasp on php, it wasn’t as much to ask as it might seem.. But I ended up bringing over the info by hand via PHPMyAdmin… Nearly everything, minus the dates of posts since PunBB put that info on a different table altogether.

But yeah, I’m not faulting brunotorre for not getting to my issue immediately. The demand for PunBB->BBPress is prolly going to always be small. Kudos for brunotorre’s work, def!

[edwinkort]

Great, thanks. Although I’m still having problems installing this

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/bookieb/public_html/bbpress/config.php on line 46

Line 46 (and further):

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // ‘wp_’; // WordPress table prefix.

$bb->wp_home = ‘www.bookieboy.co.uk’; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘www.bookieboy.co.uk’; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash

[mozey]

nice work

[jammed]

Okay. Thanks for the link.

[ranrar]

why not do as wordpress does? just copy a script/code into a folder and then activate the plug-in and then folow the install instructions acorting too the plug-in readme about tags? and so on?

then you can easly can deside yourself witch you need this plug-in ore not just like wordpress.
