@Paul – Done.

@stockable.net – Open to anything, but I have a semi-strict laundry-list of things I’m looking for to have something included in the package.

[asboyd]

I have created a test site and added several topics to a forum.

I have set the number of items in reading to 10.

When I access the forum (which has 32 topics) I see the first ten topics, but when I click the page navigation for page 2, I simply get the add new topic form and no existing topics are shown.

I am using the default theme and even when I change between the built in themes this is still a problem.

Could someone please advise of a fix?

I am not overly skilled in PHP code. But can find my way around to make changes under direction.

Cheers,

AlexB

@yutt – It’s my official job responsibility at Automatic to contribute a relatively large percentage of my time directly to the development of both bbPress and BuddyPress. The past negativity of the bbPress community has played a part in the lack of developer contributions, but I think a bigger part is the need for integrated forums not being as large as some of us perceive it to be. If everyone wanted it, more people would naturally contribute. Either way, I’m happy to keep things moving, and I’m always around if someone needs to contact me, has questions, etc… It’s also not a matter of “WordPress HQ” since bbPress is its own project, it’s more a matter of someone committing to seeing it through, which I plan to.

@qprints – Good eye

@padams

The registration is handled by WordPress (so the back-end part of the Recaptcha plugin currently available would be the same). Only the template is shown by bbPress, and you can make use of the ‘register_form’ action.

@JJJ – I greatly appreciate you fixing my “Close Topic” bug! Unfortunately it appears to break super sticky posts.

The particular topic I want to close, is a super stick with some “forum guidelines” that should be visible everywhere. When I close it now, it’s visible in the original forum it was created in, but nowhere else.

So we have half the problem solved, at least the topic IS visible to other users.

Looking forward to a full fix on this one!

As for favorites and subscriptions, the problem is that the buttons for choosing them in the first place, aren’t available. They exist in the code, but are not present visually to the user, to be able to press them. What’s the best way to actually enable these features?

Also for anyone else this may help – here is how I updated painlessly (and will do so going forward)

1) Download latest branch and edit bbpress.php, changing the plugin name to add the specific branch number

2) Rename new plugin folder name to “bbpress xxxx” where “xxxx” is the version number”

3) Upload folder to plugins folder of my WP install

4) Deactivate old bbPress plugin

5) Activate new “bbpress xxxx” plugin

6) Move theme from old bbP to new bbP

7) Enable theme in the new bbP

Profit!

This worked great for me, no conflicts, no worries of overwriting files, etc. Very smooth and easy to degrade back again if I need to.

you can find button settings in header.php, then move the things to 2 bars instead of 3:

‘theme_advanced_buttons1 : “newdocument,|,bold,italic,underline,|,justifyleft,justifycenter,justifyright,fontselect,fontsizeselect,formatselect”,

theme_advanced_buttons2 : “cut,copy,paste,|,bullist,numlist,|,outdent,indent,|,undo,redo,|,link,unlink,anchor,image,|,code,preview,|,forecolor,backcolor”,

theme_advanced_buttons3 : “insertdate,inserttime,|,spellchecker,advhr,,removeformat,|,sub,sup,|,charmap,emotions,youtube”, ‘

here you can move everything from buttons 3 to 1 and 2.

i can add an button for and <qoute>

Thanks silasje. I installed your plugin but have a problem.

First, how do I reorganize the buttons and squeeze them into two rows instead of 3?

Second, there is not quote or code buttons. I used your bb formatting file too, so I’m a bit confused about that.

Thanks.

Dear all

It seems frustrating to find what I thought would be an easy enough to find topic. Maybe I’m searching wrong but here goes.

After a lot of hours I finally managed to integrate WP and bbPress. I managed to create a link to my bbPress. The final step before i take a break is to create a link back to WP in my bbPress.

The closest I could find to clear cut directions was here:

http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/link-header-image-to-wordpress

I followed the instructions and changed

<h1>”><?php bb_option(‘name’); ?></h1>

to

<a href="http://www.my website.com” "><Back to my website</a>

and when I get to the forum site there is nothing. No link back to my website.

(I know it looks weird to have com” “> but somehow without the second ” my bbpress log in, search box, etc gets crammed into the right side of the header)

Could anyone explain exactly how and where to change this line? Is there anything else I must change? Maybe…

… it’s because I should omit the “www”?

… I need to have the “/home” for my website?

For reference, here’s how my original header.php looks like

<?php

$_head_profile_attr = ”;

if ( bb_is_profile() ) {

global $self;

if ( !$self ) {

$_head_profile_attr = ‘ profile=”http://www.w3.org/2006/03/hcard”&#8216;;

}

}

?>

<html xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml”&lt;?php bb_language_attributes( ‘1.1’ ); ?>>

<head<?php echo $_head_profile_attr; ?>>

<meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=8″ />

<meta http-equiv=”Content-Type” content=”text/html; charset=utf-8″ />

<title><?php bb_title() ?></title>

<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php bb_stylesheet_uri(); ?>” type=”text/css” />

<?php if ( ‘rtl’ == bb_get_option( ‘text_direction’ ) ) : ?>

<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php bb_stylesheet_uri( ‘rtl’ ); ?>” type=”text/css” />

<?php endif; ?>

<?php bb_feed_head(); ?>

<?php bb_head(); ?>

</head>

<body id=”<?php bb_location(); ?>”>

<div id=”wrapper”>

<div id=”header” role=”banner”>

<h1>”><?php bb_option(‘name’); ?></h1>

<?php if ( bb_get_option(‘description’) ) : ?><p class=”description”><?php bb_option(‘description’); ?></p><?php endif; ?>

<?php if ( !in_array( bb_get_location(), array( ‘login-page’, ‘register-page’ ) ) ) login_form(); ?>

<div class=”search”>

<?php search_form(); ?>

</div>

</div>

<div id=”main”>

<?php if ( bb_is_profile() ) profile_menu(); ?>

This is a great theme, I was using v.02 with small css adaptions and some bugfixes with topic display. Some days ago I upgraded to v.1 and its visually much more better.

But there is one small feature what was in v.02, but is missing in v.1 – when I entered some on going topic, what I have visited before, then page automatically moved me to last unread post where I stopped reading previously.

As I`m not strong in programming, I hope that this feature in previous version was not coming from some plugin…

If it was in previous theme version, could you at least give me some hint about function name what to search? I could try to add it to new code myself…

Good morning,

i’m planning to move my existing wp 3.1.1 network to a multisite installation, while installing a bbpress forum for them;

the idea is to have the following domain mapping:

1. blog1.mydomain

2. blog2.mydomain

3. blog3.mydomain

….

x. forum.mydomain (it could be like a new ad-hoc ‘fake’ blog, i guess)

the point is: can i share users and users profile between all subdomains? i know that multisite wp allow this, but what about that _including_ the forum blog?

before moving in i prefer to be sure it is possible

tnx in advance for help,

gabriele

Hello everyone!

I have released the RC 1 of WordPress to bbPress Converter Script. What it does is migrates all your users, converts categories to forums, articles to topics and comments to posts. Currently, it just doesn’t change image shortcodes to image urls and doesn’t preserve the forum hierarchy.

To use it, download it, put it on your server, edit the script and change the options to appropriate values before the Stop Editing Here part.

I am soon planning to release a bbPress standalone to plugin converter script if someone doesn’t beat me to it.

Download: http://code.google.com/p/wordpress-to-bbpress-converter/downloads/detail?name=w2bc.zip

Thanks!

I installed bbpress the other day, I then found that when i tried to edit the theme I got error messages, so I reuploaded bbpress, and now i’ve got error messages at the top, http://technomaniacs.co.uk/bbpress/bb-admin/install.php, take a look for yourself. The code is in white at the top so you’ll have to highlight it to read it. Also, when i installed the first time i think these error messages where there then.

How do i fix this?

thanks

[silvanacolo]

Yeah well, it’s good you took initiative. Would really appreciate an admin panel for it. Like “what color do you want as background, what features do you want to include” etc. Had a hardass time styling the css in this one. The result turned out good though, so it wasn’t impossible.

However, more importantly, I wish for the option to select text, and one click on button will automatically at a start and end-tag. Instead of clicking twice. This is the number one wish! All the other stuff I can live with.

[Gautam Gupta]

Where have you put the script? Put it in the root and also check if /forums2/bb-load.php exists.

[web2m]

Hi Gautam, I have the converter installed, but have a quick question for you.

My wordpress is in the root directory, my bbpress forums are in

http://www.sitename.com/forums2

Here is the part of your code:

define( ‘W2BC_WP_PATH’, ” ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */

define( ‘W2BC_BB_PATH’, ‘/forums2/’ ); /** With Trailing Slash, if required */

define( ‘W2BC_CONVERT_PINGBACKS’, true ); /** Convert pingacks too? true or false */

*** Continue my question ***

I keep getting “bbPress loader file (bb-load.php) doesn’t exist in the path specified!”

I have tried defining the w2bc_bb_path to ./forums2/ I have left it as the default like you had it and I have tried it as it is in the example above … it still tells me the path doesn’t exist

Could you let me know what path I need to define, if my forums are located at

http://www.sitename.com (this is where wordpress is installed)

http://www.sitename.com/forums2 (this is where my bbpress is installed)

Thank you again for the help and for the file. I am hoping I can get it to work:-)

Hey all.

Due to outdated, slow, failing and not working WYSIWYG plugins, i wanted to create a new version.

The goals:

-Let TinyMCE work on all post pages (100% already )

-Add new button which adds the [video] tag for youtube and a few more video sites. (0% since i havent treid it yet.)

-Turn TinyWYSIWYG off or on. (75% because i can hide it, but then it says no text is submitted. But quick fix: write in html, then turn Tinymce on and submit. It works as html, but a little iritating to do this way.)

Features:

-Can be easily updated, source is TinyMCE’s.

-Good experience, and loads of things work, like ,<span>

-Has easy UI same as MS Office 2007.

So any volunteers to help out the small things and make this as a plugin.

Note: The [video] PHP coding part is ready, needs to add button which wraps the [video]url-of-video[/video]

The video part will be a lose part too.

[silasje1]

i am making the plugin better and better now But tomorow (utc +1) morning i will try to create a fast first build with notes, on how too install.

What is needed before the first WYSIWYG TinyMCE release for bbpress:

-Somebody who can make it a plug-in, i have the pieces of codes which should be added to let it work.

-Adding a new button for the [video] tag whch i use. I want to release that too aftwards and include it to this version.

-Clean-up code, since it is untouched code from their website.

-Now uses no-jquery, but dont know if it is handy.

Hope some people want to help

I will make a demo soon, but you can register @ forum.fstube.org or fstube.org/forums .
