Yes. Bad idea?

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

I’m assuming you have it like this:

/site1/wordpress files

/site2/wordpress files

and not /site1/wordpress/wordpress files

Right?

If so, just put it the site1 folder as a ‘forums’ folder and you should be fine.

Yeah an iframe would do the job properly and it wouldn’t look ugly either,

[deadlyhifi]

I find that very odd. As it’s working perfectly well for me. Did you put function filter_front_page_topics($where) in a plugin and activate it?

[anandasama]

I still have one problem. the TinyMCE seems to strip alot of the p tags in the WYSIWYG environment when editing a post, and everything appears on one line. But after saving the changes, the post looks normal with the tags in correct place. It’s just the editing that looks strange.

I have no idea how to solve this. I tried to add a class to each P element created but then TinyMCE wanted to create extra <p>&nbsp;</p> elements, spacing everything out in the posted text.

Hello,

I saw a somewhat similar post on here about integrating bbpress into wordpress pages, but what I want to do is relatively simpler than that.

Basically all I want to do is to “embed” a given bbpress forum into a static webpage. I’d like to not have the top header and all of the navigational links appear, but I’ll take what I can get for now ; P

Using the <php include> tag I was able to embed a forum into a webpage, but the problem is that the area I want to embed into is 500px wide. The bbpress forum is inside of that area but also spills out onto the rest of the page. The php include is being placed into a <div> area and I want the width fixed while the height changes based on how much content is inside it.

My code looks like:

<?php include(‘http://example.com/forums/forum.php?id=12&#8217;); ?>

I’m sure the best way to do what I want would be something like:

<?php include(‘../forums/forum.php?id=12’/main_forum); ?>

but I’m not too sure.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

You will need someone who can help you debug the code then. Something is out of order.

You can post your whole topic.php at pastebin and post a link here:

http://pastebin.com/

Make sure you let the code stay there longer than one day (default is a month which should be OK)

[chrishajer]

Sorry, I was substituting pseudo-variable names in there: $site_title is the site title from the admin (“bbPress Support Forums” here) and the $topic_title is the topic title (this topic has “All RSS Feeds Broken?”). So, here, the RSS description is

bbPress Support Forums » Topic: All RSS Feeds Broken?

.......................^

and in a 1.0.1 installation it is

bbPress Support Forums Topic: All RSS Feeds Broken?

There is no raquo in the 1.0.1 installation, and the feed validator is complaining about that one character.

[Rohan Kapoor]

Neither the rss.php nor the theme specific rss2.php have either of those lines of code in them. Do you want to elaborate, please?

[vlovers]

I understood the code and I had tried something similar before putting this thread here live but then the topic page fails to load, i don’t know what I m doing wrong ?

[chrishajer]

Just add it to the template file. To make it show up after the first post only, you need a counter to see which post you’re looping through. I did something like this:

<ol id="thread" class="list:post">



<?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 if ($adcounter == 0) {

$adcounter++;

// <div id="adcode">paste ad code here</div>

} ?>

<?php endforeach; ?>



</ol>

Basically just add the adcounter check and ad code right after the closing <li> right after the post_template. You’ll have to adjust the particulars for your installation, but this is the basic process.

[chrishajer]

I have a 1.0.1 installation that works fine, but this 1.0.2 installation does not seem to work.

One difference I noticed in the 1.0.1 installation. When you click on a topic feed, the feed <description> looks like this:

$site_title Topic: $topic_title – the » is missing.

With the 1.0.2 feed, it looks like this:

$site_title » Topic: $topic_title

It’s the » that is creating problems in the feed, at least with Firefox and IE8.

[chrishajer]

Start by looking at bb-includes/capabilities.php. It defines all the roles. If you want to modify permissions, there are plugins for that depending on the version of bbPress you are using:

1.0

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/role-manager/

0.9

Maybe a plugin was never written? (can’t find it right now)

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

RSS feeds work here and on other sites, so I’m going to guess it’s deep integration or …

XML Parsing Error: undefined entity

Thank you, ck.

I update to 1.0.2. I use 13 plugin. 11 works fine, 2 no. I delete 2 and wait your update… Anonymous Posting and plugin, which add name field etc. to quest form. Download again, when you update, know that this may need more time to fix.

[_ck_]

If you edited the kakumei files directly, simply rename that folder, ie.

kakumei -> my-kakumei

Then you can copy the original kakumei from the bbPress 0.9 zip.

[_ck_]

One thing I see that changed in 0.9.0.5 is Sam put exit; after all the redirects.

In my experience I have found some weird behavior where redirects don’t happen in some cases because the exit will happen before headers are sent for the page. It shouldn’t put it does in some PHP versions/apache configurations. Probably because of buffering.

So as an experiment, maybe try editing the core file bb-login.php (not the template)

See this change:

https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset/1939/branches/0.9/bb-login.php?old=1888&old_path=branches%2F0.9%2Fbb-login.php

Put a comment in front of that exit;

bb_safe_redirect( $re );

// exit;

and see if that makes it act any differently.

[_ck_]

It’s possible I broke something in the new bb_safe_redirect however I have tested it working and I have not seen any other complaints (and there have been several registrations on my site).

Actually I just noticed you said it doesn’t work with 0.9.0.5 which didn’t have my change.

Have you tried deactivating your plugins temporarily to see if any interfere?

Let’s look at what changed from 0.9.0.4 to 0.9.0.5

https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset?old_path=%2Ftags%2F0.9.0.4&old=1898&new_path=%2Ftags%2F0.9.0.5&new=2131

Hello chrishajer,

I am running WordPress 2.8.2 and BBPress 1.0. I have put it into a file called functions.php in the kakumei dir. because I am using the kakumei theme.

I noticed that the new functions file is address to wordpress mu. and I am not running wordpres mu. what should I do now. what code should I put in the header to call that functions to deliver the header. I know also that I neeed to change “wordpress_mu_primary_blog_id” to some that call the regular wordpress but what itis?

THANK U for sparing some time and help with me!

[chrishajer]

If you are using 1.0, create a file called functions.php in your current theme directory, and put all that code into it.

If you’re using less than 1.0, you can create a plugin from that code. Just add a plugin header to the top of all that, like this:

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: WordPress pages for bbPress

*/

?>

And put it into file called something like wordpress-pages.php and drop that into folder called my-plugins at the same level as bb-plugins. If the folder is not there, you can create it. After it’s in the folder, log into the admin, you should see it there, then activate it. And report back how it worked for you.

Thanks

[chrishajer]

That means you have the path to the file wrong and bb-config.php can’t find it. Try using the full /home/jwrbloom/public_html/wpm/wp-load.php path, from the root, not a relative path. Starting it with /wpm like that makes it SEEM like a full path.

Or maybe you meant ../../wpm/wp-load.php for the relative path (up two directories)?

[anandasama]

nice to be able to help. Got any other question (like thread maker profile link) then I know the code for that too.

You should flag this topic as resolved.
