I had the same problem and noticed the entire admin file was missing. I just added the file back and it worked like normal.

What I am having a major issue with is spam. mega sign ups for casino and porn. My akismet is turned on so I do not understand it. I also have a valid key code.

Chris,

Thanks for staying on top of this.

The answer is “No” to your first question. I can get a BLANK forum page at http://website.com/forum/ using 2 codes…

The first way you already know:

require_once(‘/home/content/08/123456/html/website/wp-load.php’);

The second way was mentioned in my 3rd post (Item #1) above:

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

# 1. The interesting thing is, from what I can tell, the second way looks EXACTLY like the way the code is “supposed” to look as suggested by most deep integration instructions.

# 2. I will look into possible 500 Internal Server error log and I’ll gather the info (screen shots) you requested and post.

# 3. In the meantime,

“wp-config.php” location (“html” = server directory): html/website/

“bb-config.php” location (“html” = server directory): html/website/forum/

And “website forum” URL address location: http://website.com/forum/

____________

Again, appreciate your assistance whether we get this thing going, or not. We will!

ps – No, the website is not confidential, just not ready for viewing and don’t want to broadcast it; has a lot of “placeholder” stuff that I haven’t read.

Chris,

OK. I will ask the host provider to look into the SSH and confirm, again, the home path.

Here are the latest attempts in bb-config.php. See anything unusual?

# 1. No errors, but forum page is blank (after removing the code, bbPress forum becomes visible again, of course).

define( ‘BB_LANG’, ” );

require_once(‘/home/content/08/123456/html/website/wp-load.php’);

?>

# 2. Here’s entered code with removed quotes. Causes error on forum page (see below).

define( ‘BB_LANG’, ” );

require_once(/home/content/08/123456/html/website/wp-load.php);

?>

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘/’ in /home/content/08/123456/html/website/bb-config.php on line 66

Thank you. Hopefully we’re narrowing it down.

It’s really a simple error of trying to include a file that is not located where you are telling bbPress it is located. Have you tried including it as explained here?

You can just hard code the full path to the file there and not worry about it unless you change hosts or directories. To prove that it works, just include it like that and I think you will find that it works once you know and use the actual path to the file.

If you’re worried about changing directories or hosts at some point, you can always use a relative path (with the ../ in front) so long as you use the right path. So far, you have not.

Do you have shell access on the host with something like SSH? If so, finding the path to the file will be easy. If not, you can still find it based on the error messages you’re getting and the structure of your site.

[pkr3]

Chris (and Ashfame),

Thanks for your thorough and prompt attempt to assist me/us.

Just so you know, there is no “0php’” line of code I entered.

Here is line 65 code EXACTLY as entered in bb-config.php, on different attempts. Only difference between the two is “/..” Nothing has been altered…I copied these lines directly from the bb-config.php file adding/changing/hiding nothing. As-In, they are direct cut and pastes.

# 1. This line (when entered) reveals BLANK forum page: require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/../wp-load.php’);

# 2. This line (when entered) reveals ERROR forum page: require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/wp-load.php’);

# 3. Here are the errors from attempt # 2 above:

Warning: require_once(/home/content/08/123456/html/website/forum/wp-load.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/08/123456/html/website/forum/bb-config.php on line 65

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/content/123456/html/website/forum/wp-load.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php’) in /home/content/08/123456/html/website/forum/bb-config.php on line 65

# 4. This is how the command line(s) appears exactly as entered inside the bb-config.php file. I copied it from the bb-config.php file without changing anything:

*/

define( ‘BB_LANG’, ” );

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

?>

# 5. Random Thoughts:

a. Important: I don’t/didn’t want to combine bbPress and WordPress locations/databases so I have bbPress and WordPress on separate databases (same server). That said, I notice in the WordPress Integration “settings” (within bbPress) The “User Database table prefix” is set to “wp_”. The bbPress Help line/instructions below the field entry reads, “If your bbPress and WordPress sites share the same database, then this is the same value as $table_prefix in your WordPress wp-config.php file. It is usually wp_.”

I was instructed to enter “wp_” but am beginning to wonder if that is incorrect since the bbPress and WordPress are on separate databases. If incorrect, there are no suggestions of what line/text to enter in that field (“bb_”?). Just sharing.

b. Silly thought?: WordPress 3.0.1 came out 24 hours before my attempt to Deep Integrate, and was installed, wondering if something has changed in the WordPress 3.0.1 .php files that makes this a “new” issue; therefore requiring an updated deep integration code line. Not blaming WordPress…just sharing the experience.

Thanks a ton!

Yes. It’s GPL as the rest of bbPress code.

Hi,

A themes front page usually displays the latest discussions, but with many forums there is no context to each topic listed so the topic title is often meaningless. E.g. a topic title of ‘Help’ does not invite the viewer to click the topic to see the posts.

I’d like to add a title=”first part of post…’ attribute to the <tr> tag of each topic in the list.

I tried adding a filter to topic_class(), to fudge class=”xx” to class=”xx” title=”yy” but alt_class() has no filters. My other approach was to add a new function to the theme, e.g. in kakumei

<tr<?php topic_class(); topic_tooltip(); ?>>

and in functions.php

function topic_tooltip() {

$topic_id = get_topic_id();

echo ' title="'.$topic_id.'"';

}

but I’m struggling to work out how to get the current post available to display an extract of the first post of the topic.

Any help really appreciated.

Ian.

you can even show the login form anywhere by calling its function – login_form();

and here is something that will help you – http://blog.ashfame.com/2009/09/show-content-logged-in-status-users-bbpress/

php’

That looks like php and then the characters after the “PHP” look like what happens when you paste fancy quotes from a copy of a website. Maybe the opening quotes are similar and causing similar trouble.

Your include statement should be something like:

require_once('../wp-load.php');

If your bbPress installation is in a directory one level below WordPress (i.e. the ../ goes UP one level to find wp-load.php). You can also use a full path there instead of the relative path. In that case, it would look more like:

require_once('/home/content/08/DBnumber/html/websitename/wp-load.php');

[chrishajer]

Is this really the actual file name you are trying to include:

0php’

That should say “wp-load.php” – why the strange characters there?

Warning: require_once(0php’) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/08/DBnumber/html/websitename/forum/bb-config.php on line 65

^^ This is the source of the problems, right here. bbPress cannot find whatever file you are trying to include, in whatever location you said it was in.

Can you post line 65 of bb-config.php? Is that where you include wp-load.php?

Good News: WordPress operating successfully. bbPress forum operating successfully. “Integrated” (NOT “deep” integrated) bbPress and WordPress successfully.

Bad News: 12 hours effort to “Deep Integrate” so WordPress theme can be used in bbPress, etc.

The “require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/../wp-load.php’)” command line, when executed exactly as instructed inside the “bb-config.php” file (as shown by theme company, WordPress codex, bbPress Forum and Docs) brings up errors when the forum page tries to opens. Removed the Deep Integration code and the bbPress forum page pops back up.

Facts:

1. Databases are separate; but regular integration works fine.

2. All kinds of advice to no avail (i.e. putting code at top of .php file, removing forward slash before root, etc. etc.

3. Company programmers where I host did test on different server using basic WordPress and bbPress and attained exact same results. Not a directory issue, not a database issue, not a server issue. They also tried other methods/versions of the “require_once” code but kept getting same errors.

4. WordPress and bbPress are latest versions. WordPress is the brand new 3.0.1…requires different/new “deep integration” coding?

5. Basic integration works so the database/directory addresses are correct.

I have searched the forum and internet for solutions, prior to adding this post/topic, to no avail. Blindness and insanity creeping in…probably not due to this issue.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!

The errors below are what we ALL are getting on our forum page(s) when attempting to Deep Integrate. (In the errors below “DBnumber” = “undisclosed database number” – AND – “websitename” = “undisclosed website name.”)

Actually, is there any possible way someone could copy the code for the bb-config.php page so I can have it an install it on my server since I can’t seem to find it?

Thanks!

Pleasure!

Like the highlighted entries in the screenshot, bb_capabilities for user_id 3 should be a:1:{s:9:"keymaster";b:1;}

[Coasters Today]

Which of this do I change if I want to change user_id 3 ?

a:1:{s:9:"keymaster";b:1;}

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

Got it done! Will share on blog and provide a link here

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

Found out a way! Will get back after testing

_ck_, I am still interested in your bbdb tool, let me know

[_ck_]

There are two ways to do this.

One is to use bbPress itself and make a plugin that hooks new post, and then just quickly writes the info you want into plain html file somewhere that you just use file_get_contents to insert elsewhere.

The other way is to use my bbdb tool which allows you to query any of the bbpress/wordpress databases outside of bbpress by just including one file.

I think the first way is probably much easier.

[college beauty]

I don’t think it’s as weird or confusing as you guys are making it sound. Lots of community sites have an option to add friends, and a forum is a community. Who really knows what it’s actually for. Basically I think just to display who you’re friends on the forum are, or to get in contact with them quickly. It can help build relationships by adding people that share common interests, etc.

Once a board gets big, it can be pretty hard to find one of their posts just to click on their username to get to your friends profile!

I think this is a really cool plugin idea! Is there anything out there that can do this?

[OreilleMalade]

I just found a temporary solution here :

[OreilleMalade]

“Severity is low because it doesn’t create problem with normal users. ” :

Hi ! This is my firt post here. I’m french but I hope my english is not too bad

I DON’T use WP integration with my bbpress installation (even if my blog http://www.oreille-malade.com runs on WP).

My forum is here :

http://www.oreille-malade.com/forum

The problem is precisely I can’t access admin dashboard for a few days. I didn’t know upgrading WP to 3.0 could create a problem on my bbpress installation ?? (is it possible, really ??)

I’m quite annoyed with this problem. Any idea, someone ?

Thanks a lot !

Best Regards and thanks a lot for all the good work !

[chrishajer]

The first part will be to determine if the user is logged in.

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/check-if-a-user-is-logged-in#post-19953

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/if-user-is-logged-in-do-if-not-do#post-36822

You will probably use the function bb_is_user_logged_in() to see if they are logged in, if so, you can just continue. If not, then you need to send them to the log in form, and then redirect them after they log in back to the post they were looking for.

Something has gone wrong with their servers. It’s probably Matt’s fault.

Definitely
