Sure thing, I can actually read some Japanese.
You can replace the files.
I would suggest making a new folder, copying over bb-config.php, .htaccess and the my-templates and my-plugins folders. Then rename the folders and go visit
Worked like a champ for me.
If you’re tech inclined, yes, the forums are all the help you need. The problem is a lot of bloggers AREN’T. That’s why WP.com and TalkPress exist! Keep the non-geeks out of the geek part, and let them just blog.
If you’re NOT, then a plate of cookies is great
If I was going to charge for it, I’d say $25 for an install and bog-standard install of someoneelse’s theme (no major layout changes, just little tweaks). $5 for upgrades and ‘OMG! I borked my DB! HAAAALP!’ problems. If you want a custom design, I’m out of the biz. If I were to charge for a WP/BB integrated setup, probably $35 or $40, depending on how much I liked ’em.
Cheers Sam, buuut… Don’t you think just putting the H2 titles in the appropriate templates makes more sense? I guess I could put;
post_form( array( ‘h2’ => ” ) );
here and there, but it’s adding stuff where I shouldn’t need to.
Surely putting the H2s in the relevant templates makes more sense, as they can be edited once and forgotten? Having the H2 titles appear by default – and outside of the templates – makes no sense to me at all. Mind you, I didn’t write bbPress, so it’s only a suggestion.
Hello!
I am looking for parnter to create together plugin for buddypress.
Script already works http://sinfulopening.com/search/
– script takes names and desriptions of all caustomers fields from buddypress and create form
– in this form you can check fields used in search and what kind of search
– script generats search form
– you can install this form on the page and search users.
With this plugin easy to create, for example, dating service with buddypress.
In future I want to create search for distance with zipcodes.
I don’t know buddypress good and don’t have expirience to create plugins.
Please, help.
Thanks Chris. I’ll start from scratch again with that going in bb-config.php. I’m having so much fun.
Try this…
<?php if (is_topic() ) : ?>
<?php topic_tags(); ?>
<?php endif; // is_topic() ?>
I use that in my sidebar.php file, and it works fine.
Done. New Keys. New Code. Same Problem. [Sigh….]
Make copy of files and database, upload new files, run example.com/bb-admin/upgrade.php and you’re done
. I’ve done it many times and never had any problems.
Hmm, I guess this function has to be used within topic look, otherwise it won’t work – my only idea is to play with CSS – put the tags within the loop, but on the very bottom of it, then use CSS to move it even lower.
Not every wordpress installation have secure_auth_salt – you can skip this part, as it’s related to https:// protocol – I mean, as long as you’re not using https:// for your websites
.
Oh, I missed a couple of replies. 
Thanks for the compliments. I feel like my forums are hanging by a thread some days, but nothing has completely broken. Mostly, I’m just ready to upgrade to the final release of bbPress 1.0.
Try this…
post_form( array( 'h2' => 'Woot!' ) );
@burtadsit, I think this is what you need for compatibility with WordPress < 2.8:
define('WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION', 1);

@Ipstenu
Thanks Very much, I understand. I had no doubt your answers were correct. By editing his header he caused some loss of functionality. When reading his entire quote which begins, quite importantly with, “Thanks. I did that. Then found out… ” You see that he tied both things together: cause and affect (or is that effect). In any case, the question of whether there are plugins for editing themes etc., and therefore avoiding destruction of important code has been answered.

Any chance you could share the location of those PHP Tutorials? I would love to check them out. I was remembering a friend of mine used PHPBB years ago. I had forgotten all about it until he recently posted to a discussion list. Guess he was a real pioneer!
http://www.bavp.org/forumz/ If you want to check it out (though I can’t imagine why…) 
Thanks
anointed – If I were you, I’d leave it alone and keep vbulletin. There’s no reason to change if everything’s working and you don’t hate vbulletin
Now, if you do hate it…
Caching will help for non-members, especially considering that a more popular site has a few dozen bots crawling around it at any given time. But yes, it will have to generate a new file for each page.
However even without wp-super-cache it’s possible to cache parts of pages for all members, especially worthwhile on parts that use a whole bunch of CPU cycles to generate each time.
I wrote some code awhile back to cache the tag clouds, since they are not filtered by logged-in/out and remain static until a tag is added or deleted. The tag cloud took an average of 10-20 ms out of 120 ms to generate on the front page so the savings were worthwhile.
Wow, this is a bit of a headache.
I’m busy trying to get the integration sorted out and got along quite well (WPMU, BBPress, BuddyPress combo), although I still needed to log in twice, when my luck ran out and now I can’t seem to log into bbpress. Bit annoying. I’ve reinstalled the whole thing, but still no luck. Trying to debug it at the moment, but it’s tough going.
I did come across something that needed fixing though; I’m not sure where to submit this fix, so I’m posting it here for now.
The bug was this; the latest release candidate never displayed the dropdown from which one selects the keymaster during installation due to a mistake in line 2569 of bb-admin/includes/class.bb-install.php.
Previously the line was;
$wp_administrator_meta_key .= $this->data[2] . ‘_’;
which meant the meta_key it tried to query the db on looked something like this; ‘wp_capabilities1_’.
I changed it to:
$wp_administrator_meta_key = $bbdb->escape( $bb->wp_table_prefix . $this->data[2] . ‘_capabilities’ );
so now the key will be ‘wp_1_capabilities’.
This is obviously (when you look at the code) only relevant when setting the default blog id.
Hope it helps someone!
Did you rename your keys in bb-config? Like define('BB_AUTH_KEY', 'KEYNAME');
Also, don’t share your keys with anyone
They should be SECRET
No issues! Jump ahead and make it happen. Its nothing that can’t be done
Hi guys,
I was facing the same problem here, but I could solve it. Basically, I put this on wp-config.php
:
define('COOKIEHASH', '65f9fb5b6e5df178e02402af4495ed46');
define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.www.rodrigoghedin.com.br');
define('SITECOOKIEPATH', '/teste/');
define('COOKIEPATH', '/teste/');
And this in bb-config.php
:
$bb->cookiedomain = '.www.rodrigoghedin.com.br';
I’m running a test installation. Main WordPress is in a directory (/teste), and bbPress is a sub-directory (/teste/bbpress). Right now, it’s working fine.
[]’s!
i have instal & integration bbpress 0.9.04 & WP 2.7.1 and there have wrong way,
instalation mesage:
>>> WordPress cookie secret key not set.
>>>>>> Your “bb-config.php” file was not writable.
>>>>>> You will need to manually define the “BB_SECRET_KEY” in your “bb-config.php” file.
Key master email not sent!
i just copy four WP secret key to bb_config.php:
define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘^y?+[8|=-QR1cngc>:Kd:%8:ob/67|{#Trw1wV}{YDUngFP 2DL5ibGmfp8CiknU’);
define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘3C%:+qR(Jkuan5oA#Eq2 vq
;siUcsF- D^,fij:pV0<|ZD!gHZjlHO8k?(7`sh’);
define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘A;nBjuz%qGr$F<]{G_L8%tM?{PT5+_{a?lkBs%)4]t_)9;vZgy,s)m<W=/l+9M$*’);
define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘V-_=k,n).uzdcm65)f)2jAdST8s4EARpWMhOX26Q0e8x8[UB|L
I|hcyptQtYbw’);
but login still different betwen WP and bbpress. what ur think?
Hi,
I’ve been searching this forums yet but could’nt find any explanation to my problem so here it goes:
I’m a newbie at developping for bbpress, and trying to customize it for my needs.
First, I’m running bbPress 0.9.4; I’m also using a copy of the default theme that i’m modifying (located in my-templates/mysite).
I’ve attached a hook to the action ‘bb_index.php_pre_db’ which is ran on bbpress/index.php; My goal is to display only forums (without latest discussions and sticky topics) so i’ve copied the content of index.php and removed calls to latest discussions and sticky topics:
add_action('bb_index.php_pre_db', 'home');
function home(){
$forums = get_forums(); // Comment to hide forums
do_action( ‘bb_index.php’, ” );
bb_load_template( ‘front-page.php’);
exit();
}
The problem is that once in the file front-page.php, the $forums variable doesnt exists anymore. Actually i tried to print it out in the bb_load_template as well and the variable is empty too. It seems that because i’m using a hook (called by do_action), globals variable do not exists anymore in this context. I might be wrong but i’m actually stuck to this point and can’t really move forward. Any tips?
Cheers.
Anyone else know why this might be happening? I’m completely stuck
