According to _ck_ bbPress is faster. According to Sam phpBB is “probably” faster in some situations, in others bbPress is faster. In most situations I’d assume bbPress would load paages faster simply because it generally has a lot less to do, both content wise (less features = less HTML/CSS) and processing wise. The only way to tell would be to bench test two identical setups, but I haven’t heard of anyone doing that before.

In most practical situations I doubt the performance issues are a real issue though. The way you code your theme will probably have more effect on page load times than anything in the backend.

This is all just guess work though.

I think bbpress is relatively faster when compared to phpbb.

Having the same issue. will look over Kakumei when i get a chance tomorrow but if you find the code before then please do share

thanks!

Try “EricBarnes”! Nice and clean Theme…!

I’m using the 0.9 version of bbPress, and have noticed something weird. On two of my installs, if an admin goes to someone’s profile and clicks edit, they see the following checkbox:

Allow this user to [ ] Ignore the 30 second post throttling limit

If you check that off and click save, then that user can post more than once every 30 seconds. It’s a neat feature.

On my other installs, the “Allow this user to” label shows up… but the checkbox that lets you turn it on and off isn’t there. That line now just says: “Allow this user to”.

Any ideas why that checkbox sometimes doesn’t show up on some bbPress installs?

The only difference I can think of is that the first two installs were upgraded from bbPress version 0.8… while the other installs are all fresh installs. Could that cause this issue?

How about you: when you (the admin) goes to edit somebody’s profile… do you see the checkbox that lets you change their “throttle” saving?

unholyfruitbat – Glad that we narrowed it down. Do you have a program to compare two text files? I use Beyond Compare and love it:

http://www.scootersoftware.com/download.php

You could use that to compare theme pages like front-page.php… and see what differences there are in your theme codes.

There are no bbPress chat plugins that I’m aware of:

Also, _ck_ is a female developer.

Ok, waiting

Hello everyone,

I am working a new theme for release and I need a cool name. But I am drawing blanks.

So if you have a second take a look here and see if you can think of a unique name.

We’ve carried out the install and all is working well – http://piedpiper.org.nz

Thank you for a great product

There’s an issue with RSS feeds not validating. The problem appears to stem from » in the titles (rss.php) so I swapped them all with ::.

It now validates. It did work fine in Safari, but Firefox and IE threw up errors. Will report in trac…

Feed validation for this thread: http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbbpress.org%2Fforums%2Frss%2Ftopic%2Fcall-for-testers-on-the-09-branch-and-10-trunk

There’s also a recommendation to not use <textInput>.

@pikatore

This fix is for 1.0, if you are using 9.0.6, then use the original plugin.

This fix doesn’t create directories with pb-- in their name.

[eclipsenow]

Oh, and WYSIWIG and images and all that basic stuff… are there still plugins for that? I’ve got people very nervous with code…

[pikatore]

this problem seems to only be occuring in google Chrome. But not in IE 8.

Is this the first time IE WORKED, and Chrome didn’t? Oh my god.

And this is definetely only occuring on the ‘edit-post’ page, and I have tried messing with the code of the edit-form.php and troubleshooting it, and making it identical to the post-form.php in practically every way, and the problem still happens.

[antoniobon]

Problem solved with the bb-video plugin. Strangely it only converts video link (URL) and not the EMBED code. Instead the issue with the bb-smiles of _ck_ remains an outstanding …

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

No, you don’t have to permit people their own blogs on BP

[mpesgt01]

yeah, I tough of it… but thanks for remering it to me But if I use PB,do I have to have everybody able to blog ?

I am more looking into : the admin is blogging, the members are commenting and chatting or the forum (and be nice to add their own photos to share their moments)

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

MPESGT01 – That would sort of fall under the realm of BuddyPress, I would think. Still, yes, it’s possible to make a plugin. WPMU/bbPress/BuddyPress would probably do it better

[mpesgt01]

If we use bbPress as a forum… and WordPress as a blog… and that we can add a way that the members can upload photos to their own profile… we would then almost get a social software/php script and that would be awsome !!!

I am not a coder (i’m a web designer) but I do know that it can be possible to create this plug in.

I just saw your next look, the bbpress 2.0 and with that plugin, a profile album, it would be it !!

Than maybe later another plugin for same thing, but videos (either upload or grab via youtube), but this can be invented later… photos first !!

Any chances ???

If someone can hack into my devserver that have no access to internet, the person is more than welcome to do it

apbai: Nice, so everything is working now?

[Ivaylo Draganov]

да, за заповедната форма си прав, но не се сещам дали съм следил за това…

оправих и другата дреболия всичко е в SVN вече

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

I’d be lazy and take something like Tom (db)’s WPNews and flip it around

For RSS, you can google around for solutions. I’m not sure there are any bb specific ones.

I’ve asked this question in another topic without getting any answers, so I’ll try again.

Is it possible to embed Youtube videos in a post? If so, how do you do it?

I also want to make this a button in BBCode Buttons!

[johnhiler]

From one coding novice to another, I can try to answer that question.

Plugins that need to keep track of topic_id include topics that tend to “attach” something to a topic, or track data tied to a particular topic. _ck_’s examples above mentioned file attachments and polls… I’m guessing that at some of the following might work similarly:

* Best Answer (since a post within a particular topic is selected as the Best Answer)

* Unread Topics (which tracks if a topic has been read by a particularuser)

* bb Topic Views -(which tracks views for each topic)

Just a guess though…

Next question

If i had a special “dedicated” server only for MySQL is 256MB Ram is enough for my forum??

(200k topics, 100users online in one moment, 12k all users)

Sorry for this questions, but i cant test it.
