@ chrishjaer, here is the link to code on paste bin > http://pastebin.com/m3cb3a4a0 ….. waiting for your reply
here is the site in question: http://www.waapsols.com
Its running Buddypress.
These are the steps i followed to integrate BB and BP… http://buddypress.org/forums/topic/bp-103-and-bbpress-which-version-plugins-cookies#post-20006
WPMU, BP, and BB is working good. But I just can’t get the logins to work, I mean when I login into WPMU, I am not automatically logged into BBPress Forum.
I am guessing thats the reason why in my BuddyPress, the forum is working fine, but who ever posts, there is no gravtar or name is seen 
Can someone help, what might have gone wrong.?
I have seen many people asking that tags are not getting deleted in bbPress 1.0 (Even I faced the same problem, but it was working in the default theme). So I just thought of writing a solution for it.
Open the topic-tags.php of your theme.
You would find something like this:
<?php if ( $public_tags ) : ?>
<div id="othertags">
<ul id="yourtaglist">
<?php foreach ( $public_tags as $tag ) : ?>
<li id="tag-<?php echo $tag->tag_id; ?>_<?php echo $tag->user_id; ?>">
<a href="<?php bb_tag_link(); ?>" rel="tag"><?php bb_tag_name(); ?></a> <?php $tags = bb_get_tag_remove_link (); if ($tags) echo '<small>'.$tags.'</small>'; ?>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
</div>
Replace it with:
<?php if ( bb_get_topic_tags() ) : ?>
<?php bb_list_tags(); ?>
That’s it!
You can also view the changes to topic-tags.php of the default theme in the trac:
http://trac.bbpress.org/changeset?old_path=%2Ftrunk%2Fbb-templates%2Fkakumei%2Ftopic-tags.php&old=940&new_path=%2Ftrunk%2Fbb-templates%2Fkakumei%2Ftopic-tags.php&new=2344
Your hunch was right, it was a template problem. I was using the variable $user in my header.php to refer to the person currently logged in (for my custom user menu). Little did I know that this variable is also used by the profile page to store the person you’re looking at. So I was unintentionally overriding it with my custom code.
Fixed!
Hmm, I upgraded to 1.0.2 and the problem has not changed.
These are the plugins that I am using: Ajaxed Quote, Akismet, Allow Images, BBcode Buttons Toolbar, BBcode Lite, bbPM, bbPress signatures, bbPress Smilies, BBVideo, Post Count Plus, and reCAPTCHA bbPress.
I don’t see anything that could be causing this though, anyone else have any other ideas?
In your template’s topic.php, find the loop. It looks like this:
<?php foreach ($posts as $bb_post) : $del_class = post_del_class(); ?>
<li id="post-<?php post_id(); ?>"<?php alt_class('post', $del_class); ?>>
<?php bb_post_template(); ?>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
Right after the closing li, before the endforeach, add this:
<div style="height:100px;"></div>
Change 100px to whatever amount of space you want between replies. It will look like this when you are done.
<?php foreach ($posts as $bb_post) : $del_class = post_del_class(); ?>
<li id="post-<?php post_id(); ?>"<?php alt_class('post', $del_class); ?>>
<?php bb_post_template(); ?>
</li>
<div style="height:100px;"></div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
That will put some space between your replies and space the author info down as well, to keep it with the reply.
> Permission denied in /home/michael/public_html/forum/bb-load.php on line 160
What are the permissions on this file /home/michael/public_html/forum/bb-config.php/ Should be 0644 or something like this -rw-r--r-- depending on how you can look at the permissions.
That’s read and write for the owner, read for anyone else. You’re getting a permission denied error, which means the file is there, but the process can’t read it.
I just made the Plugin Browser for bbPress By Sam Bauers compatible with bbPress 1.0 & later 
It now correctly recognizes the current version of the plugin stored on your forums, also tells you to upgrade if necessary, and can uninstall plugins already installed or install which are not installed.
I have also done the following changes:
- The directory folder of a plugin need not have pb– in its name, nor have a pb–revision.php
- GET methods changed to POST.
Notes:
- Plugins installed by the previous version of this plugin, cannot be upgraded or uninstalled. You can, however remove pb– from their name via ftp and then upgrade or uninstall.
- It does not recognize the plugins bundled with bbPress like Akismet, Bozo, etc. (This functionality wasn’t there before too).
You can download it from here: http://gaut.am/uploads/plugin-browser-for-bbpress.zip

They appear to be all the same. I did set up my bbPress database table prefix as wp_bb_. They are in the same database.
One thing I wonder about is this:
define( 'COOKIEHASH', 'd61ff63d6d2f09a423c2332af089b5c8' );
define( 'COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.hoosierhoopsreport.com' );
define( 'SITECOOKIEPATH', '/wpm/' );
define( 'ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH', '/wpm' );
define( 'COOKIEPATH', '/wpm/' );
The cookie_domain, it says (dot)hoosierhoopsreport.com. Should the (dot) be there?
Hi,
I don’t like the standard message send after a new user has registered to my bbpress forum. So I thought about to write an plugin that will send my custom text instead.
This is what I have:
function bb_send_pass_cust($user, $pass) {
$message = __("Your username is: %1$s nYour password is: %2$s nYou can now log in: %3$s nMyCustom text!");
return bb_mail(
bb_get_user_email( $user->ID ),
bb_get_option('name') . ': ' . __('Password'),
sprintf($message, $user->user_login, $pass, bb_get_uri(null, null, BB_URI_CONTEXT_TEXT))
);
}
remove_action('bb_new_user', 'bb_send_pass');
add_action('bb_new_user', 'bb_send_pass_cust');
this code has many issues:
– it doesn’t remove the action
– the password is nu available in the custom function
In the past my functions/plugins never had function arguments, how to use them?
Thanks for your help!
*note – I’m not trying to integrate bbPress into a WordPress page but rather a static page. I already have the login integration between bb and wp working.
I’ve been able to “embed” my WordPress posts into a static web page with the help of an online tutorial using PHP includes. Basically, on the page that you want to have WordPress embedded in, you paste:
<?php require(‘../../../blog/wp-blog-header.php’); ?>
into the very top of the page above the DTD, and then paste The Loop wherever you want your posts to appear.
What I’d like to do is the exact same thing except with bbPress. I’ve tried applying the same basic principle as described as above, but am pretty much stuck and can’t get anything except errors to appear.
Here’s what my code looks like at this point. I’ve used the header file from the kakumei templates folder as that’s the only header file I can find. At the very top above the DTD;
<?php require(‘../../../forums/bb-templates/kakumei/header.php’); ?>
Now I’ve searched high and low for anything talking about “The Loop” (or it’s equivalent) in bbPress but have found zip. The closest things I have seen have been inside the bbPress/index.php and forum.php files, which I pasted and tested each separately into the area that I wanted to have the forums appear, but with no positive results.
If anyone knows how to do this properly I will be grateful.
Thank you
Adam Lawton
*The page where I found the WordPress integration tutorial is:
http://moshublog.com/2005/07/05/integrate/
I did try that the second time around. Now I’m on a third time and getting this error:
There was a problem connecting to the WordPress user database you specified. Please check the settings, then try again.
Before I tried the third install, I deleted all old files both from my local and my server locations. I wiped out my bbPress database tables. So it’s a clean install. I’m getting my cookie information from my wp-config file downloaded from my server. I have checked the settings, BTW.
Ugggghhh!! : )
I’m willing to bet permissions are NOT correct despite what you think.
Chmod /my-templates/ and /mythemetest/ to 750
Gee, I’m terribly sorry that the people volunteering their time for no compensation had their own lives to take care of. Take a deep breath. Okay? Good.
What version of bbPress is this? I’m assuming 1.0.2, but let’s be sure.
What version of PHP and SQL are on your server?
While we’re at it, Windows or *nix server?
Any blank lines before <?php or after the last ?> in your bb-config.php file?
Hello,
just upgraded to 1.02 and found some issues regarding the “unique email address” bug from before.
Btw. in older version that was a problem too 
update the email address in your profile:
If you change the email address into an existing one, it works fine but there is no message about (This is a tiny one)
Register process
I was busy to find some better way to add the recaptcha to the register form and noticed that the login form field is only tested if the email field is already filled. That worked better in version 0.9
everything else looks fine
Do you have a link to your forum? It’s tough to troubleshoot css without the actual code.
Hi there,
I searched all over the forums but couldn’t find much about this. Currently I have avatar upload plugin as well as postcount plus.
The thing is, I want spacing between the each post..not padding. When I increase the padding, it adds more padded space to the dotted line under each post. I just want to space each post out so the posts and the users are not so close together. That way there won’t be a ton of padding under the dotted line and instead space between the posts. Any ideas on this?
For example a black background with the two alternating colored posts..say white and green. I want space between the white and green (posts) so you see some black background between them.
Thanks!
Just makes things easier to read.
NuMaverick, BRILLIANT!
I’ve been plauged by this problem for a few hours now. I was very confused, if there was some sort of ranking system here, I would give this 5 stars
(Assuming 5 stars is the maximum of course!)
I just deleted the whole database and the forum, and reinstalled it. This time I tried integrating it with WordPress. I was able to find all keys, exept secure_auth_salt in the WP-options.
However, I got this errormessage, after a “successfull install”:
Quote:
>>> WordPress cookie keys not set.
>>>>>> Your “bb-config.php” file was not writable.
>>>>>> You will need to manually re-define “BB_AUTH_KEY”, “BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY” and “BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY” in your “bb-config.php” file.
The forum is looking like it always has, and logging in still does not work. Obviously there is something very problematic with Line 273 and 232 – in my BB-config file, my Class.wp-auth.php file, and my functions.bb-pluggable.php file.
Someone please help me, fast!!! I want this forum up and running. I thought this would be much simpler.

Okay strike that it’s working. Minutes later, the forum doesnt load at all. This is the message it gives now:
Warning: require_once(/home/michael/public_html/forum/bb-config.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/michael/public_html/forum/bb-load.php on line 160
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/michael/public_html/forum/bb-config.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/michael/public_html/forum/bb-load.php on line 160
It is probably unwise to make this very premature announcement, but I’m working on integrating BB as a plugin of WP, with seamless installation, integrated users, login, search, themes (header, sidebar, footer and as much styling as possible), XML-RPC, Tags, RSS, compatibility with relevant WP plugins like goggle analytics and tinymce comments, and new widgets to show bbpress info. Right now the installation, user integration and login are working.
This is a spare time project, so there is no ETA…. (and if you think that I’m looking for a sponsor for this project, you are at least partly right
)
Since it is a challenging project, I sometimes wonder if it worth it. More specifically, does someone in Automatic currently making an high level design for a similar feature and I’m practically wasting my time?
Sam, can you comment about this?
Bug 2…
http://keskustelu.hpguru.net/search.php?q=iskelm%C3%A4
Try this search results. Many links don’t work and without text. Check Aiheeseen liittyvät viestit posts 1 and 2. More posts below. Posts link doesn’t work. Is this a bug? Check on my friend new bbPress install, doesn’t work search and index navigation.
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/navigation-on-index-doesnt-work#post-55938 Navigation seems be a non-work… <!-- navigation code here --> I put this to theme.
You can just delete the files from the file system, if that’s what you mean. If you use an FTP client, there should be a way to delete the whole bbPress folder/directory (normally right click and “Delete” then answer the prompts). That will remove bbPress. You can remove the database tables next with a tool like phpMyAdmin. Hopefully your host provides something like that. You can log in and delete any table with a bb_ prefix, or whatever prefix you chose when installing (default is bb_).
Good luck.
Here’s the current state of deep integration – along with hints at the future path.
There’s no known way to access bbPress functions inside of WordPress:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/first-pass-at-a-fix-for-deep-integration-in-trunk#post-21621
Sam has said he’s willing to support WordPress function calls from inside of bbPress
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/what-is-the-opposite-of-deep-integration#post-36853
But WordPress isn’t returning the favor:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-access-to-bbpress-functions#post-37451
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-access-to-bbpress-functions#post-37460
So essentially, we’re looking at one-way integration being the probable future. bbPress is working hard to make sure it itnegrates deeply with WordPress, but WordPress isn’t making the same effort. 
But- keep in mind that there’s a performance hit for “deep integration”! I personally use simple integration on my sites. _ck_ highlights the advances of simple integration here:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/display-bbpress-on-wordpress-page-inside-the-blog#post-25353
It’s pretty disappointing that WordPress isn’t using BackPress… especially since Sam made such a huge effort to integrate BackPress into bbPress. Also, bbPress took quite a performance hit from integrating BackPress.
I’m hoping for a miracle somehow to redeem bbPress! In the meantime, I’m preparing contingency plans…
