To space them out, could you do something like this?

#tag-page a {

margin-right: 10px;

}

I think I would add an additional div to your template so that this #tag-page a doesn’t affect all the links on the page. Just wrap the section you want this to work on in something like <div id="tag-heat-map">.

If you want to do use a bullet instead after each link, you could do this also, but I am not certain what browsers actually support text generated by the :after pseudo-element (I think it’s CSS 2.1):

#tag-page a:after {

content: "%5C2007%5C00B7%5C2007";

}

The 2007 is a digit space, and the 00B7 is a middot. Maybe something like that? Not even related to bbPress really.

EDIT: above, those %5C are supposed to be backslashes but I can’t keep them from being translated or decoded or whatever. Should be character encoding from here:

bbPress does have support for Pretty Permalinks, which are SEO friendly. Just go to your admin panel > settings > permalinks. You can change it there.

Simple:Press is developed externally – so more effort has been put into bbPress to make sure it integrates properly with WordPress.

thanks, i had thoughts about it, but hoped that someone already had had that problem and solved

The odd redirect thing is not really, it looks normal to me. When you try to access bb-admin directly, and you’re not logged in, you get redirected to bb-login.php, with the query string ?re= redirecting you to where you initially wanted to go. It works like that in WordPress too.

Try accessing wp-admin on the same site without being logged in:

Hi guys,

Got a bit of a problem. Installed bbpress integrated it into wordpress got all the bits right so it uses my wordpress database and wordpress logins etc and thats all fine and dandy but none of my pages load.

I can only get to my bb-admin pages but only by going to the direct section say “appearance” I get a page 404 error when I go to http://www.londonmuscle.com/blog/forum/ or http://www.londonmuscle.com/blog/forum/bb-admin/

I havent actually done anything but follow the bb press install instructions so wondered why its not working.

Anyone able to help, Really need to get it sorted asap as this is quite a big part of our business.

Regards,

Chris

No need to re invent the wheel here guys. Just DL http://bobrik.name/code/wordpress/wordpress-bbpress-syncronization/ and you are all set.

[Michael]

You’ve done an awesome job with this!

This is what I LOVE about bbPress – you can do almost anything you like with it. I almost confused your forum for phpBB. Very nice

HSeatSleeper

it’s a great idea but you miss something: there are a lot of duplicate IDs and users

[Michael]

I see – well at least it works now.

You’re welcome.

[Michael]

Could you post the code so we can have a look?

[Michael]

I see – you’re pointing to a file that doesn’t exist. The image is in the theme directory, right? Try using the full path like I have below:

<div id="headercenter">

<div class="header-text">

<a href="http://www.inniosoft.co.cc/devstation"><img style="margin-top: 36px;" border="0" alt="dev:station." height="65" width="336" src="http://www.inniosoft.co.cc/devstation/my-templates/businesslike/images/headerlogo.png"/></a>

</div>

</div>

Peace, Michael

i found the code thats doing it but i cant take it out

[merc70]

My tiny modification:

<div class="header-wrapper">

<div class="header pagewidth">

<!-- TITLE -->

<a href="<?php bb_uri(); ?>"><img src="/images/forumlogo.png" alt="Forums" title="Forums" /></a>

<?php if ( bb_get_option('description') ) : ?><h2><?php bb_option('description'); ?></h2><?php endif; ?>

<!-- END TITLE -->

</div>

</div>

Edit: forgot to mention that adding the width=”325px” height=”90px” in the img tag, still doesn’t display the image.

[Michael]

Well can you show us the code that you used? I have a template based on yours (from Spyka.net), and my image appears perfectly. You may just have an error in your code.

[Michael]

I never found this error. I should check it out.

Hello everyone, we’ve started a forum about a week ago and decided to use a template to skin the board. After a good couple of hours, we managed to match the forums colors and feel to our main website. I’m not really well-versed with CSS or PHP but i’m familiar enough to experiment, tinker and achieve the results I usually want. And besides, i’m learning as I go!

But there’s one thing that’s sort of baffling me. I’m trying to add our “logo” image in the header, right where the normal forum name text would appear. Usually, that’s just as simple as going to the header itself and replacing the PHP code used to get the name of the forum with an IMG html tag with width, height, etc.. However, the image won’t appear at all! We’ve double checked the directory, made sure it was pointed to the right place, checked the chmod settings on the image and everything should be fine, but the image still doesn’t appear. The result is in the screen cap below:

http://marknine.com/image/ioforums.jpg

Is there something specific i’m supposed to be looking for? In the CSS file or the header.php file itself?

header.php

<div class="header-wrapper">

<div class="header pagewidth">

<!-- TITLE -->

<h1><a href="<?php bb_uri(); ?>"><?php bb_option('name'); ?></a></h1>

<?php if ( bb_get_option('description') ) : ?><h2><?php bb_option('description'); ?></h2><?php endif; ?>

<!-- END TITLE -->

</div>

</div>

CSS

/* header & nav */

div.header-wrapper {

background:#222 url('images/header.png') repeat-x scroll left top;

}

div.header {

border-top:10px solid #E05900;

padding:40px 0 40px 10px;

margin:0 auto;

}

I recently had a problem with my tag cloud, which I have not resolved. I landed up having to revert to the default tag cloud.

Now that I’ve done this, the tags look too close to eachother. So some tags look as if they are one, when they are actually two.

My idea is to separate them with bullets (•) of the same size. Once again, I don’t wanna go messing around with the core unless I know what I’m doing.

Any way to do this?

Peace, Michael

chrishajer: i looked everywhere, i can’t find that code or anything that looks like it could it be a topic someone put with html in it?

[chrishajer]

Interesting, you’re going to throw the whole internets into a loop!

Here are the headers:

[~]$ curl -I http://strangebutfunny.net/forum/topic.php?id=2

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Content-Length: 0

Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.0

X-Pingback: http://strangebutfunny.net/forum/xmlrpc.php

Refresh: 0;url=http://strangebutfunny.net/forum/topic.php?id=2

X-Powered-By: ASP.NET

Date: Thu, 07 Jan 2010 17:09:09 GMT

Why is there a “Refresh: 0;” in there? Do you have a fresh in any of your header.php files, maybe to direct people from the website to the forum?

[Michael]

Okay, thank you

[Gautam]

Add this before line 40 in hot-tags-plus.php:

add_action('bb_pre_merge_tags', 'hot_tags_plus_delete');

This wont fix your current bug (but would fix future ones). To fix the one that is now, temporarily run hot_tags_plus_delete() function any where in your template to clear the cache and remove it after that.

[Michael]

I’ve just disabled the plugin. I don’t want to reduce the functionality of it at all. Besides, I’m planning to make some changes to my forum – so I’ll probably use bbCumulus when the time comes.

Thanks for the help

[Michael]

Hi all Hope you’re keeping well.

I just picked up a bug (it may just be in my forum though) with the tags system. I was doing some tag cleaning today, so I needed to merge a few tags. I had two tags that needed merging: “User Interfaces” and “User Interface” (my fault).

After merging the tags, I received this error:

http://www.inniosoft.co.cc/devstation/tags

I am using the Hot Tags Plus plugin, but I don’t think it has anything to do with this error.

Running bbPress 1.0.2.

Any ideas?

Peace, Michael

If you’re running a shared host, you should be able to perform a backup yourself through your cPanel.

alexandanthony: It lookas like you’ve modified something when you edited the theme files. It looks like it’s running some kind of continuous loop.

Can you put the code for topic.php (in your my-themes directory) on pastebin.org? I’d like to have a look.

Michael
