@Rich Pedley – Yes. I think I lost the ability to login at 2814. /wp-admin redirects me to /login, which gives me an error saying the page cannot be found.

Got the same problem, I have a maintenance plugin running and now I cannot enter my wp-admin, because it redirects to login. Gonna remove this redirect, hope this gets optional in the backend.

Edit: I rather think it was 2815.

Edit 2: By editing bbp-includes/bbp-hooks.php and taking away line 257:260, you will have access to your wp-admin again. If not, totally remove the function in bbp-includes/bbp-general-functions.php 998:1040.

i’ve been following the chat on the bbpress plugin thread and altough JJJ said somewhere that it will be possible it reallly doesnt seem (to me) that the plugin is going that way.

wordpress will use one theme and bbpress as a plugin will need its own theme.

@devs

dont read my comments as destructive but i feel as a user the need to voice my opinion, as a user i dont have the “god like” ability to master css/php or port my wordpress theme to a bbpress theme, its like you’re creating a forum plugin and making it difficult to use or integrate visually with wordpress…a forum plugin only for the “code masters”. try and go the simple:press or mingle forum way or have that possibility.

I share many of your concerns. I too have stumbled onto the Mingle Forum plug-in.

I have it installed along with the Mingle plug-in. This turns a WordPress site into a BuddyPress-like site with an extremely short learning curve. I had both installed, tweaked on the code to remove a couple of links that I didn’t want, modified the CSS to make a near perfect style match to my theme, and understood how to configure administrate the forum in about 3 hours.

I am not a code monkey and cannot compare the pros and cons of how Mingle Forums stacks up against the bbPress plug-in or any other solutions. The security vulnerability has also been resoled to my satisfaction.

Before I implement a solution I am more concerned with its support and sustainability. Both plug-ins have have over 50,000 downloads and the Mingle Forum plug-in was last updated 20 days ago. I had one problem/question with the installation and it was answered by the plug-in’s author within hours. Within the last 5 days the Mingle Forum’s author has posted 5 videos instructional videos on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/user/cartpauj). All indications are that this project is alive and well.

I am going to go live with it this week and plan to use it until another plug-in solution, which is better, becomes available.

Since i noticed the new bbpress wasnt going to be “theme integration friendly” just like the previous versions, i started to look for other forum plugins, simple:press was the next step but i find it quite slow loading.

Today while browsing an “drupal7 vs joomla 1.6” article i found a forum plugin for wordpress:

The Mingle Forum Plugin

http://cartpauj.com/projects/mingle-forum-plugin/

no need to ftp files, you can install it from within wordpress plugin page, no need for extra themes, it can use whatever theme wordpress uses, international localization/languages etc etc

@bbpress devs: in my opinion you’re overcomplicating something that should be “easy as 1,2,3” in bbpress (theme integration), you’re “integrating” not the opposite, lots and lots of people voiced their problems with complicated integrations or deep integration, why insist on having separate thmes for something that “uses” wordpress that itself already uses a theme. Make it simple.

REQUIREMENTS:

PHP 5.x

WordPress 3.0 or newer

FEATURES:

* NEW! SEO Friendly URLs

* NEW! Forum sitemap (../wp-content/plugins/mingle-forum/sitemap.php)

* NEW! Adsense areas

* Media embedding into forum posts (like Youtube, Flickr, Photobucket…)

* WordPress 3.0 ready!

* Categories with sub-forums

* User Groups

* User Levels (EX: Newbie, Beginner, Pro…)

* Private Messages – Forum integrates seamlessly with my Cartpauj PM Plugin (Requires Cartpauj PM vs. 1.0.09 or greater)

* Moderators

* Skins

* Captcha

* BB Code

* Smilies

* Custom Forum Search

* Guest posts (See Mingle Forum Guest Info add-on by wpweaver)

* Hot/Very Hot topics

* Sticky (Pinned) Topics

* Move, Edit, Remove and Close topics

* Forum RSS Feeds

* Email notifications on replies to topics

* Recent posts widget (or PHP shortcode for your theme)

* Integrates nicely with most themes (It’s tough to make it work for all themes so some skin modifications may be required for your site)

* Allow/Dis-allow other users to view your profile from the Forum

* Supports different languages

* Integrates with the Mingle Plugin (by Blair Williams) NOTE: The “Mingle” plugin is NOT required for forum to work

o Avatars

o Profile’s (Works with/without Pretty Profile URLs enabled in Mingle settings)

o Activity in the forum shows up as activity in mingle (Helps increase discussion in both your forums and your SN)

o Deleted forum topics will also delete the corresponding Mingle board post

K, will raise a trac ticket then

[RegNatarajan]

I get that totally. I’m not pressuring them. I’m a developer myself, and I fully understand it takes time. What I’m really looking for is to just understand where things are right now, without that coming across as pressure.

I get that WordPress integration isn’t so advanced right now, and that’s fine. I’d be looking to make it part of my WordPress site at http://www.esecuredata.com, but that doesn’t mean it has to share the same users or be a plugin. I could just link to it as a totally separate process with separate users, although I’d probably write a bit of custom integration code as we maintain our own user database.

I would love to see a few sites running BBPress so I can see what’s possible, and see what themes or styles are available right now. I find this forum extremely fast and easy to use, and am interested if it is running a widely available style/skin. Heck, I don’t even know if you call them styles or skins or themes or what, here. lol.

I’m very excited with the launch of bbpress as plugin. I hope we can enjoy it soon in a alpha state in order to update it easily. For me only one matter is pending and is that:

“The goal is for the bbPress plugin to include these pages as WordPress page templates and short-codes, to allow for maximum flexibility in configuring your site. “

With that I will start to develop my own forum.

So, thanks and keep up the great work!

[Billy Wilcosky]

I am so impatient. I never thought I’d be excited about a forum plugin, but I am. I check here everyday to see if this has been completed…

@JJJ or whoever wants to chime in. You responded to Rootside and explained the login page, but I’m not sure if that answers my question. It sounds like you’re talking about a login page integrated into a WordPress page. But, I want my members to also be able to use the default WordPress registration and login page (wp-login.php). That will work with the plugin right?

How about releasing it under a different name and crediting the original author in the comments? Seems like he died.

Hi there. can this be done without installing phpbb3 as I’m also moving the forum to another location.

Steps I made:

1. Export phpbb3 SQL from the old location

2. Import phpbb3 SQL to the new location.

3. Install bbpress with the same db info where I imported the phpbb3 SQL.

4. Called the script from root folder of bbpress, but I get 500 Internal Server Error.

I can see that there are some hooks to phpbb3 root folder.

I don’t know what is being called there, but maybe I could define DB settings manually somehow?

define('IN_PHPBB', true);

$phpbb_root_path = (defined('PHPBB_ROOT_PATH')) ? PHPBB_ROOT_PATH : './';

$phpEx = substr(strrchr(__FILE__, '.'), 1);

include($phpbb_root_path . 'common.' . $phpEx);



// Start session management

$user->session_begin();

$auth->acl($user->data);

$user->setup();

So can this be done without phpbb3 installation?

Hello

I have domain domainnameDOTcom/

My WordPress directory is domainnameDOTcom/wordpress/

Installed BuddyPress Default 1.2.7 with WordPress 3.0.4

With BB-Press Forum

When I select any tab that is not created in WP then the FULL url including the WP install directory is evident

How can I ensure this WP directory remains “hidden” from the users perspective

I have tried to implement bp-custom.php which resides in /public_html/wptest/wp-content/plugins/buddypress without success.

That is the WP directory can be seen in the URL when I select “Forum” tab, thereafter the site adopts the extended url even though permalinks is set to /%category%/%postname%/

Here is the code I found on this site and tested:

code:

<?php

// Getting rid of the subfolder in URLs/permalinks

function my_bp_override_core_domain() {

$domain = get_bloginfo(‘url’);

return $domain;

}

add_filter(‘bp_core_get_root_domain’,’my_bp_override_core_domain’);

?>

I look forward to hearing feedback

Is it possible to call wordpress plugin functions in bbpress?

I’ve added the deep integration code in bb-config.php:

/* Deep integration */

if ( !defined(‘ABSPATH’) & !defined(‘XMLRPC_REQUEST’))

{

define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false);

include_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/../wp-blog-header.php’ );

header(“HTTP/1.1 200 OK”);

header(“Status: 200 All rosy”);

}

I added this too:

require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/../wp-load.php’);

define(‘WP_BB’, true);

However, i can only call the theme functions of wordpress i.e., get_header(), get_footer() etc…but i cannot get the wordpress plugin functions to work in my bbpress. I’m trying to call a function from a wordpress plugin named “Marquee” and placed it at the bottom of my bbpress template.
