Theoretically, it sounds easy. You set up a bbPress forum and let users register on it. Then when you setup a WP blog, make it use the bbPress tables and then integrate the cookies by the normal process. Never tried it practically.

Hi,

I have the following scenario: Members of my club is crying for a forum to offload our mailinglist. In the works is also a new club blog platform but that is going to take a while. So what I want to do is:

1. Install/Set up bbPress standalone.

2. Let users register

3. Use the bbPress forum

3. When the new WP based blog is good to go, Install WP and share the db with bbPress. The main thing here is that users should be able to continue using their credentials in WP too.

4. Use WP and bbPress in harmony happily ever after

From what I have gathered (reading docs and forum posts) this is at least theoretically possible. But is it plausible? Has anyone done it this way (bbPress first, then WP)? Please feel free to tell my why it is a really bad idea (if it is).

I always have the option to argue that the club should wait with the forum until the WP blog is up an running. But if it is possible I would like to start the forum asap.

All input is welcome

pkiula: You would need to write a plugin on your own for that. Just check the code related to that, and find & use the hooks nearby.

alaskanvwnut: Yes, but you would need to write a plugin for hiding the posts from logged out users in the first case.

pkiula: In the yet-to-be-released bbPress 1.1 (standalone), that feature is built-in.

pkiula: That’s what we are working on. bbPress is now being made a WordPress plugin which would seamlessly integrate.

@willabee – Don’t move any files anywhere. Just activate bbPress and see how it fits on your site. If it doesn’t, use the bbp-twentyten theme. It puts itself in your list of available themes even though it’s in the plugins folder

@Rick Lewis – I’ll post a new topic tonight with instructions on how to test.

Im sure there’s something somewhere on this but I’m not finding it.. How can I allow users to upload pictures, like any and all social network sites…

What is the most effective way, something where 10 years from now I wont be dealing with having to switch methods…

Thanks!

Good to see that the plugin is progressing so fast now.

To catch up, the bbpress files now can be placed within the theme folder? And if so, what files go in there?

Keep up the great work JJJ and Gautum.

Erlend: As BuddyPress installs bbPress standalone with only a few tweaks, I think it would be very much possible to convert the BuddyPress bbPress forums too. Just point it to its directory.

chrisbrocklesby: There was a fix posted earlier in this thread about that (which I don’t actually remember and it’s hard to locate that). It happens when you upgrade from an old version of bbPress plugin. If you could nuke the whole dev site and install it again, then it should start working again for you.

Matalina: Try adding bbpress in the list of tags in style.css of your theme. That behavior should be changed though.

That’s a bug. I experienced it once before and thought I’d fixed it so might be a regression of some newer privacy handling code. Will check it out. Go ahead and create a trac ticket for it and I’ll close it when it’s resolved.
