I’ve been looking the code for a while, I’m not that familiar with bbPress yet, but i’d really like this feature so I’ll keep an eye on this.

[altimitmine]

I know this is old but I needed it to, so here is the answer for anyone else finding this on google:

1) Open bb-includes/functions.bb-meta.php

2) Find this line:

case 'url':

$option = 'uri';

3) After it, add:

case 'uri':

return "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/forum/";

break;

Replace the “/forum/” part with the proper URL to your forums. For example

http://blah.com/bbpress/

would be:

return "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/bbpress/";

bb-gian:

Thankyou VERY much for your help and the clarity with which you explained yourself.

I kinda had managed to make images work with tinyMCE alone (tinyMCE3.7.2, bb-press1.01) and have only used your tip on the ‘functions.bb-formatting.php’ that I’m not too sure is working.

When I insert images and then render the page there is a ‘ “image26.jpg” />’ after the image itself, looking at the source code I see a linebreak (br) inside the value of the ‘alt’ attribute that breaks the code.

Same thing happens on links: a linebreak ‘br’ at the beginning of the ‘href’ value.

Anyone having/had the same problem?

Is it possible to install bbPress in the same folder as WordPress or have anyone tried? I have seen alot of people trying to remove the extra /forum url that appears in bbPress. This really seems like the obvious solution and like it’s what it’s coded for initially. I only fear that it’s too easy and straight forward that it won’t work

[notprathap]

I recently installed bbpress by extending buddypress 1.1 with wordpress mu 2.8.4. While everything is ok on the buddypress end, the forum does not have a “Add New Topic” link displayed…. I tried adding topics and posts through the database too, but same result! You can find the link to the forum here – http://smartlearnwebtv.com/iitjee/forums. I’d appreciate any help from you guys.

Note: The forum under the “Groups” category seems to work fine – not sure if this has got anything to do with the problem am facing.

[ZoiX]

Thank you Olaf, but, I was trying with this plugin before and I can’t get a highlighting code, just a white square with the information.

And, another issue, is that if I write the quotes, bbpress (or the plugin?) change for more quotes: I write “as”, and get “”as””, so, I need to write <pre lang=as>code</pre >

[Peter A. Gebhardt]

Change template-functions.php as described below:

function post_form( $h2 = '' ) {

global $page, $topic, $forum;

$add = topic_pages_add();

if ( empty($h2) && false !== $h2 ) {

if ( is_topic() )

$h2 =  __('Reply');

elseif ( is_forum() && !bb_forums( $forum_id )) // <== Change here

$h2 = __('New Topic in this Forum');

elseif ( is_bb_tag() || is_front() )

$h2 = __('Add New Topic');

}

...

It’s a pity that I had to change a core file. Maybe somebody else could contribute a better solution?

[chrishajer]

Which text in the footer? The “Invicta Trader Forums is proudly powered by” text?

#footer p {

color:red;

}

This will change the color of that text.

If you’re not talking about that text, please post exactly what text you want to style.

Also, please stick with one subject per topic so we can close items as they are resolved.

[InvTrdr]

Found the h1 color. Was set on a separate line. Below is the code for the footer. Where do I set all the text color in there?

#footer {

font-family: Georgia;

font-style: italic;

border-top: 0px solid #ccc;

margin: auto;

color: #666;

font-size: 1.4em;

padding-top: 10px;

clear: both;

text-align: center;

height: 80px;

width: 960px;

}

Thank you.

[InvTrdr]

When I am using the code below to change the h1 text color, it will not work. Is it set somewhere else in the stock theme “Kakumei”? I was trying to change the color line below to ffffff from 444. Same problem with footer font too. Just some of it changes to ffffff.

Thank you.

#header h1 {

font-family: Georgia;

font-style: italic;

overflow: auto;

position: absolute;

display: block;

color: #444;

text-align: right;

letter-spacing: -1px;

right: 69px;

bottom: 36px;

padding: 6px;

z-index: 2;

}

[Immelody]

I’m hoping this is possible, but am doubtful. Hopefully someone can help if it is possible.

I run a small community website. I have a friend that runs a similar but not exactly the same small community website. We were looking to become “sister” websites. What we want to do is have the message boards from both sites be a single board. This part isn’t what I’m worried about. I know it’s as simple as directing a link.

What we are wanting however is to have her WP theme show up as the bbP theme when entered from her domain.. And when entered from my domain, my WP theme to show up as the bbP theme. Does anyone feel this is 1) possible 2) relatively “easy” to accomplish? When I say relatively easy, I mean that I know it will be difficult, but I don’t want to re-write ALL of the bbPress code.

Thanks!

@apam

What I did to make images work with Allow Images plugin is to go in the plugin’s php file and comment out this chunk of code (at the bottom of the file):

remove_filter( ‘pre_post’, ‘encode_bad’ );

add_filter( ‘pre_post’, ‘allow_images_encode_bad’, 9 );

add_filter( ‘pre_post’, ‘allow_images’, 52 );

Like this:

// remove_filter( ‘pre_post’, ‘encode_bad’ );

// add_filter( ‘pre_post’, ‘allow_images_encode_bad’, 9 );

// add_filter( ‘pre_post’, ‘allow_images’, 52 );

That worked for me. Hope it does work for you as well.

Bonus tip: with TinyMCE installed, if you try to “Edit” a post, you get <p>tags all over the text. To fix that go to this file:

bb-includes/functions.bb-formatting.php

Find this chunk of code:

function bb_code_trick_reverse( $text ) {

$text = preg_replace_callback(“!(

|)(.*?)(

|)!s”, ‘bb_decodeit’, $text);

$text = str_replace(array(‘<p>’, ‘’), ‘’, $text);

$text = str_replace(‘</p>’, “n”, $text);

$text = str_replace(‘<coded_br />’, ‘’, $text);

$text = str_replace(‘<coded_p>’, ‘<p>’, $text);

$text = str_replace(‘</coded_p>’, ‘</p>’, $text);

return $text;

}

And comment out this two lines:

// $text = str_replace(array(‘<p>’, ‘
’), ‘’, $text);

// $text = str_replace(‘</p>’, “n”, $text);

You may now have a proper Editor.

[chrishajer]

If the theme author coded it in to the theme, just find it in the theme and remove it.

You can also change it by creating a functions.php file in your theme folder, and put this in it:

<?php

remove_filter('bb_topic_labels', 'bb_closed_label');

add_filter('bb_topic_labels', 'my_closed_label');

function my_closed_label( $label ) {

global $topic;

if ( '0' === $topic->topic_open )

return sprintf(__('[Read Only] %s'), $label);

return $label;

}

?>

That changes [Sticky] to [Read Only]. You can change the [Read Only] to whatever text you want instead of sticky.

[chrishajer]

This makes the block quotes on your test thread look different in my browser:

#thread .entry blockquote {

color:red;

padding:0 25px;

font-weight: bold;

font-style:italic;

}

Just add that after #thread .entry in your style.css and change the styling rules to whatever you want.

Using a heavily-customized theme of Options 0.1 Alpha (Dark) by Justin Tadlock (http://bbshowcase.org/themes/bbpress-options.zip)

[blockquote]Quite simply, the problem is that BBquotes don’t work.[/blockquote]

It doesn’t matter whether I use

Quote:

, [blockquote] or the HTML code for blockquotes.

I’ve noticed that removing the { margin: 0; padding: 0; } at the very start of the style.css does enable it, but it jumbles up the paddings and alignments for the header menus and topic posts. My attempts to import code enabling normal quoting from other themes were unsuccessful. PS. Justin’s “Structure” theme also doesn’t support quotes.

Any help or advice will be much appreciated, thank you.

Hi there,

my turn, I suppose!

Well, the ioni2 theme is deeply integrated with WordPress (it relies on WP to build menu and parts of footer, for instance), but in any other aspect it is purely bbPress:

forum.sunshine.by

Uses:

• Akismet
• Allow Images (allthough truth to tell it is not working as well as it is supposed to.. but alas!)
• bbPress Sitemap Generator
• bbPress Web Compression (A must have!)
• Related Topics
• Simple Online List
• Topic Icons (almost useless with my theme)

There are not much people of the forum so you may freely check it out and try post anything to see how it is working! The theme is translated into Russian (although written in English), and shall you desire to get it – just let me know The same goes for the translation.

The major point here is that the theme is HTML5 (I keep developing it, just keep that in mind) – and it looks exacly the same in IE, FF, Chrome, Opera and Safari

Wanna check it outforum.sunshine.by?

Hi,

read this message : https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-avatar-upload/page/5

[KillerSneak]

So i need some help. I have integrated BBPress with WordPress but the template I’m running only loads the Jquery SuperFish menu when it finds WP 2.8 – i need to alter the code so it also loads when it find BB press 1.0 / 1.0.2

here’s the code

<?php

if ( $wp_version != '2.8')

{

wp_deregister_script('jquery');

wp_enqueue_script('jquery', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/jquery-1.3.2.min.js', null, '1.3.2', false);

wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui', get_template_directory_uri() . '/js/jquery-ui-1.7.1.min.js', 'jquery', '1.7.1', false);

} else {

wp_enqueue_script('jquery-ui-tabs', null, array('jquery', 'jquery-ui-core'), null, false);

}

if ( $bb_version != ‘1.0’)

{

wp_deregister_script(‘jquery’);

wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/js/jquery-1.3.2.min.js’, null, ‘1.3.2’, false);

wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery-ui’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/js/jquery-ui-1.7.1.min.js’, ‘jquery’, ‘1.7.1’, false);

if ( !function_exists(‘pixopoint_menu’) ) {

wp_enqueue_script(‘superfish’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/js/superfish/superfish.js’, ‘jquery’, null, false);

}

if ( is_singular() ) {

wp_enqueue_script(‘comment-reply’);

}

wp_enqueue_script(‘arras-base’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/js/base.js’, ‘jquery’, null, false);

wp_head();

arras_head();

if ( !function_exists(‘pixopoint_menu’) ) :

$(document).ready(function() {

$(‘.sf-menu’).superfish({

});

</script>

Luckily my system administrator makes automatic backups of the databases, so he just dropped all of the tables and then restored my database from about a day before. After a lot of research, I found it was basically impossible to restore the affected tables without a backup because not only did it change a lot of stuff I didn’t understand with some of the columns and the index of the posts table, but it changed every single “post_status” entry to “0” instead of what they should be– “publish,” “draft,” and etcetera. Anyway, things were really messed up.

My advice to anyone who has a similar problem and comes across this post is:

A.) Look before you leap! Go over your settings many times before installing!

B.) Backup the databases regularly and especially when installing or upgrading!

Thank you, crishajer, for your help. I greatly appreciate the time you took. Again, thank heaven for sysadmins with more sense than site administrators!

Hi all!

I have a problem with BBPress:Syntax Hiliter plugin and simple quotes (‘) or normal quotes (“).

When in my code I have a quote, the plugin (or bbpress?) change it by the hexadecimal code.

For example, if in my code I have a simple quote (‘), appear in the code &#39.

.

I was reading an issue about it and maybe the functions.bb-formatting.php file have an answer, anyway, I don’t have what I need to edit.

Anyone have any idea?

Thank you

[dangerousape]

@wilcosky and everyone else who’s asked here and on the other thread, having cracked it this afternoon with the aid of a couple of online code snippets and my limited PHP skills, here’s how to display your avatars from this plugin in WP if you have WP and bbPress integrated and sharing the same user table.

In your sidebar, or wherever you want to have them (or a “welcome, guest” message or whatever) appear, put this code snippet…

<?php global $user_login;

get_currentuserinfo();



if ($user_login == '') {

echo('Welcome Guest');

} else {



$directory = '/your/DOCUMENT_ROOT/path/to/forum/avatars/';

$flag = false;

$ext = array( '.jpg' , '.gif' , '.png' );



for( $i = 0; count( $ext ) > $i; $i++ )

{

if( file_exists( $directory . $user_login . $ext[$i] ) )

{



$flag = true;

$name = $user_login . $ext[$i];

}

}

if( $flag == true )

{

echo "<img src="http://www.yoursite.com/forum/avatars/".$name."" />";

}

}

?>

Note that the path for $directory is your DOCUMENT_ROOT one (you can use an ‘echo’ or ‘print’ PHP command to find it if you don’t know it, google for instructions; it’s usually something like ‘/home/user/public_html/’), while the later image source path is the standard http one. If your avatar directory is somewhere other than /yoursite.com/forum/avatars/ then, obviously, you’ll need to edit accordingly.

If you use a different set of possible image file extensions than the usual .jpg, .gif and .png trio you’ll also need to edit the $ext array (so if you don’t allow .gifs, it’d be $ext = array( '.jpg' , '.png' ) for instance).

[chrishajer]

Hopefully you have a database backup since that will be the easiest way to fix this. If you used the same database prefix for WordPress and your bbPress installation, bbPress tried to install into some existing WordPress tables.

Here is a list of the tables created by both packages:

bbPress tables:



forums

meta

posts

terms

term_relationships

term_taxonomy

topics

users

usermeta



WordPress tables:

terms

term_taxonomy

term_relationships

comments

links

options

postmeta

posts

users

usermeta

From that list, it looks like the following tables have the same names in bbPress and WordPress:

posts

terms

term_relationships

term_taxonomy

users

usermeta

So, if you used the same prefix, I think bbPress would just happily write into those tables. I’ve never done it, so I’m not certain, but I think that’s what would happen.

I guess it’s possible also that it just leaves the existing WordPress tables alone, but the tables are not usable in bbPress, so there could be weirdness. It’s also possible that bbPress tries to alter the tables and fails in some places, making the table unusable for bbPress and probably WordPress.

It’s easiest to just replace the database with a recent backup. If you don’t have that, then you will have to look at the database directly with a tool like phpMyAdmin and see exactly what happened.

(As an afterthought, this ought to be in troubleshooting, but I can’t change it… sorry!)

Hello. Let me introduce myself. I am an idiot.

I installed bbPress to my server. I wanted to have user integration with my WordPress installation. Great. I ran the installation, but I knew I’d have to do a lot of things manually because of my server set up. I entered the appropriate information for the config file, and it prompted me to create the config file with certain information in it because it didn’t have permissions to do so. Exactly what I expected. I ran the rest of the setup as it should go, and when I had it commence with the installation, it said that it had installed but with some minor errors. I looked at the config file, and the keys hadn’t been saved. So I entered in the keys as they should have gone, but then I stupidly changed the blasted database prefix to the same prefix as my WordPress installation thinking for some stupid reason that I was changing the setting for WordPress integration! IDIOT! It installs again with some “minor errors,” but this time going to the address of the forum actually brought up the forum instead of the installation prompt. I mozy on over to my WordPress installation (http://ipfcubed.com&#8211; which I’ve currently set to be inaccessable to the public– you’ll see why). Now every single draft and scheduled post (as well as unapproved submissions from contributors in the community) is now visible on the main page. When I make a new post, it says the year is 1999 (EDIT: Sorry– the date is still correct, but the post’s address says that it’s 1999: http://ipfcubed.com/1999/11//. The published posts count is also off– it says I have zero published posts in the dashboard. I can see that I’ve majorly messed up the posts table. Can someone PLEASE help me fix it? Any and all suggestions are welcome! Below I’ve provided both the error message and the installation log that it gave me:
