Pretty much. The non get_ version is just an echo of the get_ one anyway

The reason why bbPress needs Oracle support is because if you are trying to integrate it into any existing site run by an actual company and not a hobbyist, there’s a good chance their user database is in Oracle (or MS SQL Server).

PHP supports Oracle so why should bbPress be tied to just MySQL. I don’t think it is really using much (if any) MySQL specific code.

This is one of the main selling points of PHPBB – it supports FireBird, MySQL, MS SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL and SQLite.

Use get_topic_title() to retrieve the topic title as a string while in the loop.

To get the actual index keys of the $topics array, you can use array_keys, or if you want to actual topic IDs, you’d need to use $topic->topic_id inside a foreach loop assigning $topic.

[Bagi Zoltan]

Hi,

$query="SELECT topic_id FROM bb_topics";will return the array of the topic ids.

You can use browser add-ons for Firefox like Firebug or the Web Developer Toolbar, or you can use a command line tool, or there are places online that you can submit your URL to and they will show the headers returned.

Using the Web Developer Toolbar for Firefox, I get this:

Response Headers - http://fakeplasticfish.com/discuss/

Server: Apache

Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=99

Connection: Keep-Alive

200 OK

Which is correct, and different from before, and it looks like you fixed it.

[fakeplasticfish]

Oh my god, I love you. Will you have my babies???!!!!!

Changing from wp-blog-header.php to wp-load.php fixed the problem. At least it looks that way. The pages are loading in IE now.

How would I check to headers to make sure this problem is truly fixed? I don’t know what “check the headers” actually means. Sorry.

Oh, and maybe bbPress could change the instructions here

https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/

to indicate that wp-load.php should be used instead?

Beth

[chrishajer]

I think you should be including wp-load.php instead of wp-blog-header.php

I think the difference between browsers is due to your forum returning a 404 but still displaying the content. Some browsers ignore the 404 and display the content (Safari and Firefox, apparently) but others treat the 404 as a 404 (IE8).

Not sure if this question should go to the Installation forum or Troubleshooting. I actually posted this question last night to the forum, and this morning it has disappeared. So trying again…

I have spent all weekend installing bbPress and modifying the kakumei template to integrate with my site. It all looked great in Firefox and Safari, but when I view the site in Internet Explorer 8, I cannot reach any pages besides front page, and only then if I browse to http://fakeplasticfish.com/discuss/index.php. Simply browsing to http://fakeplasticfish.com/discuss/ in Internet Explorer brings up a 404 Error, as do all the other forum pages.

Here are details of my install:

WordPress 2.8.4 installed at the root: http://fakeplasticfish.com

bbPress 1.0.2 installed at http://fakeplasticfish.com/install/

bbPress is installed into the same database as WordPress on a GoDaddy Linux server.

I have added this code to my bb-config file as instructed:

/** Integrate with WordPress */

require_once(‘/home/content/b/e/t/bethfish/html/wp-blog-header.php’);

This is because I want my WordPress plugin menu bar to appear in bbPress as well as other WordPress functions.

I thought perhaps the issue had to do with pretty permalinks, as I read some entries in this forum on that issue, so I actually switched back to the original ugly permalinks, cleared the browser cache and restarted IE. IE will still not open any of the bbPress pages besides index.php and returns a 404 error from the server (not my WordPress 404 page.)

I have two .htaccess files, one in the root folder created by WordPress and one in /discuss/ created by bbPress. I tried deleting that file after switching back to ugly permalinks, and now there is a new one there.

I am a novice. I don’t understand the information in the .htaccess file, but I am happy to copy the information from both files over here if that would help.

I just really don’t understand why the bbPress pages work fine in Firefox and Safari and not in IE.

Hi

I have tried integrate wordpress into bbPress according to the documentation, in my localhost, and im getting this error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function bloginfo() in C:wampwwwgm_wordpresswp-contentthemesdefaultfooter.php on line 12

Do i have to call every file in wordpress with “require_once”… Or is there any other solution ?

I ll be great if you guys can help me out..

Thanx

Hello,I’m a wordpress user and I just downloaded bbpress for a project I’m working on since I can’t get some key features on wordpress. My project involves polls that can be created by users of the site, and also regular forum topics.

I have gotten the polls plugin bbpress polls and it adds ‘[poll]’ in front of the topic title. now I want to use this feature to display topics with polls separately from topics that don’t have polls since this seems to be the most distinguishing factor.

My question is how can I get the topic title in the loop for use in my code? the Function topic_title() displays the topic i.e. it echoes it, but I would like to get it as a string that I can use in functions.

Also, I would like to know how I can get a reference of all the index keys in the $topics array so I can use them in my code.

Hi all,

just installed bbPress at http://www.autogas-umruestungen.de/forum

Do I have to protect this directory somehow? The index.php is in the same directory with bb-config.php etc. and other vital files?

Seems unsafe? Or am I wrong?

Thanks for your help..

Great tool this bbPress

Sebastian

[Pomy]

where are coders… I’m waiting for reply… please help

[Bagi Zoltan]

I faced with the very same problem with two bbpress installations along with a WP. I slightly modified the function is_404() in the /wp-includes/query.php so the function returns true when the requested uri belongs to the forums.

function is_404 () {

global $wp_query;

if (preg_match('/(firstbbpressfoldername|secondbbpressfoldername)/i', $_SERVER))

{return true;}

else{

return $wp_query->is_404;}

}

After saving the irritating 404 issue has gone.

Regards

There are simply no stylesheets for div.discussions and other kakumei CSS classes, so they are displayed unstyled.

[John James Jacoby]

felabria, keep in mind that at WordPress.org, they do not have cookie sharing setup; so logging into the forums does not mean you’re logged into the codex, etc…

[cratercraver]

@chipbennett: “Is it approaching something that others would find useful?”

You bet! I am relatively new to forums hosting and very new to bbPress so it would be wonderful to see how you set it up.

Thanks!

2. Add “post_avatar();” (between the php tags) in post.php or wherever you want it if using your own template.

ok guys, i don’t see a post.php is it bb-post.php?

Also looking in bb-post.php I havent got a clue where to insert it.. can some give me a clue

[Abhinav Sood]

You’re getting these errors only because the PHP version from your local server environment is quite new.

Simply put this at the start of your bb-settings.php file after the first opening PHP tag

error_reporting(0);

This should remove most of the errors.

[fifthhouse]

Ah this is great! I don’t know much about code but this much I think I can figure out.

Much appreciated

[chrishajer]

Since there doesn’t appear to be any interest, or at least anyone interested hasn’t posted, maybe you should consider hiring someone to code it for you. You could then share the code with the community if you are so inclined.

[heredia21]

How or where do i add the code to have the avatars show up in bbpm?

The only ans single database solutions you might consider at this moment (except MySQL which is already supported) is PostgreSQL ans SQLite.

I would switch my WordPress to SQLite. Thought SQLite has no full support for alter…

[hpguru]

Or you can use a phpMyAdmin.

I’m still having trouble…tinymce seems to break up my template, doesn’t show pics in the post content untill I save and preview the post (not all images though…) and tag management keeps giving me errors. Everything seems to go away when I disable the plugin.

I must say it’s getting quite difficult to get this forum to work as I’d like…must say if I can’t find a solution I might go back to my old smf forum…but I’d love to keep to bbpress.

I can’t find help on other tinymce forums either…
