Makes sense. I got that error about 15 times when I made a test post at http://bbpress.chrishajer.com/trunk

The post still went through, and the code is all messed up.

This was the bbPress ticket:

https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1283

Closed it and made a BackPress ticket:

http://backpress.automattic.com/ticket/25

[chrishajer]

Kevin, we added the svn revision number to the version, so any theme that echos the meta generator tag will have the version, like “1.1-alpha-2440”. Checking the source here, this site is not running the very latest trunk, although it is running trunk of some revision (but a revision before 2441 – we just don’t know which one since the version tag was not changed until 2441.)

[meta name=”generator” content=”bbPress 1.1-alpha” /]

On my test installation http://bbpress.chrishajer.com/trunk/ you can see it’s running r2441:

[meta name=”generator” content=”bbPress 1.1-alpha-2441″ /]

Test posting there in code tag or backticks shows completely fubar formatting. It is apparently something we can fix in trunk. Not sure when that particular problem was introduced.

Gautam,

Can you confirm if this “Greater than” and “less than” nonsense is in the nightly builds, and thus something for us to fix in the latest version, or if it’s down to a hack purely on the bbPress website.

Because it’s getting quite mental.

[Gautam Gupta]

Change them to forum_link( $topic->forum_id ), forum_name( $topic->forum_id ), post_author_title_link( $topic->topic_last_post_id ) (not tested, but should work).

(Replace > with the greater than sign.)

[yoyopop]

Hiya,

Very sorry for long post, hoping someone might be help to shed some light on this problem…

If you try to add a tag to a topic that doesn’t have any tags yet, using the box below the topic title, the whole page refreshes in order to add the tag (whereas it should do it within the page using Ajax).

If you try to add a tag to a topic which already has at least one tag, then it comes up within the page, highlighted yellow etc using Ajax. That should be normal.

Then, if you try to delete all the tags in a topic which has more than one tag, when you attempt to delete the last one it flashes red to denote it’s being deleted, but it then pops up again and a message appears saying ‘An unidentified error has occurred.‘

– – –

I had a similar problem a few weeks ago, with the tags ajax function not working, which I found out was due to a single space at the end of one plugin file.

Now though, I have disabled all plugins, am using the default template, I have re-uploaded both older backup versions and the latest trunk version of bbpress, but still have the problem!!

Am not sure if it could be a problem with the database? Looking at my database, the bb_tags and bb_tagged tables are both empty?? I do have tags in my forum though, where are they stored?

Does anyone have any clue as to the problem?

It could be the ajax is broken because of a random extra character somewhere?

Or the ‘unidentified error’ is due to the database??

[eduardosilva]

Hello again _ck_, sorry for not giving any feedback earlier, but in the last few days I’ve been busy with my work and I wasn’t able to test your modification.

I just made some tests with your modification, but the problem with bb-admin persisted.

Anyway, I’m happy with the current achievements, the forum working with SSL is pretty nice, and normally I just use the administration part at home or work (in a safe network).

Maybe one of us should fill a bug report for the https on the bugtracker?

Thanks for all the help and I’m glad to see you back in the forums.

[gadamiak]

Exactly. After that I manually deleted bbpress_been_blocked from usermeta table for that user but it got back somehow.

I just upgraded to latest revision from the trunk (2442), but the problem persists. This site is still in testing stage so I’m going to reinstall it and see if that helps.

[Rootside]

Upgraded to WordPress RC 3, still getting the same error.

print_r($_POST); gives me the following:

Array ( [user_login] => hello [user_email] => xxxxxxx@rootside.com [user_url] => [from] => [occ] => [interest] => [Submit] => Register » )

I obscured the email address here, but it is the one I have entered in the registration form above. So it seems that user_email IS defined.

Thanks for that hint. Maybe it’s a freakish bug – nobody else has chimed in with the same problem so far – but I don’t know how many people are testing WP 3 with bbPress yet, so I’m not quite ready to re-install the whole sermon from scratch again. I’ll try setting up the same combo on a different server as soon as I can find the time, but I’m still hoping that this can be tracked down, so I don’t have to fear for the worst with every future update…

Does the information above give any of you guys an idea?

Again, greatly appreciated.

[gerikg]

awesome, works perfectly with the plugin.

Wonderful Zaerl mate.

Issue 1:

bb_new_post and bb_new_topic actually cause me a world of issues, because they’re fired before all of the SQL/PHP is fired. It took me about 2 days to work out my copy and pasted SQL was producing different results in the PHP and the actual database.

In the end, I had to move those functions to add_action('bb-post.php') and then test if a topic was passed or not.

(I’m guessing a little that this might have something to do with the wp_cache functions, as in certain places we call wp_cache_flush and wp_cache_delete before the bb_new_post actions)

bb_update_post though seems like its exactly what I want, though am a tad concerned that the same thing will happen – at least if I have access to $_POST I can hack it.

I’m basically wanting to know when someone changes the name/title of a topic. Which seems very simple to me (in theory).

==========================================================

The second one is a bit more tricky.

I basically have a (half-baked) plugin that deals with the geneology of a forum, with true parent/child n-to-n relationships. For my non-flat websites, this (again half-hacked) plugin has really made my life easier.

Before I release it, I want to make sure I’m covering as many bases as possible, and these have been outstanding bugs for about a year now.

Whenever someone reorders their forums, or adds a new forum, or marks a forum as hidden; I’d like my plugin to know about it. Basically, I want my plugin to be fired AFTER the core has finished what it’s doing, and we’ve no action for that.

But there’s no action or pluggable function that gets called after, thre is only bb_check_ajax_referer and thats called before any processing.

I really apprecaite your help Zaerl mate, if you can think of anyhing else – please shout!

[mr_pelle]

Using My Views plugin by _ck_ and activating its module named “Started/Participated Topics”, you will end up with a view named “Latest Discussions” which is exactly what you’re looking for.

[ghettobsd]

Ok, so both my blog and forum are set up properly and working fine.

I did some hacking to get rid of the back tick to quote option.

So I’m posting for the fist time “I’m” and it posts as “I/’m”

I try to find the problem and can’t.

I end up making 3 db’s total:

db 1) Using what I have (results in /’)

db 2) Clean install, using only themes (results in /’)

db 3) Clean install, no themes, no hacks nothing, just integrated with cookies (results in /’)

Any one have any idea what’s going on?

Both are latest releases. Everything else works fine. Integration works etc etc

I created a new DB with clean installs of both wp and bb with the same results. Different user names, default themes etc. Nothing worked.

tia!

[gerikg]

I have 1.1-alpha installed and no go!

so sad.

[mattyhockey]

Very latest version of WordPress and BBpress.

I did not solve the problem, but I did do a work around. I just made an if statement to check if the user is logged in. If they are, display that link. If they aren’t display the same link, but instead take them to the register page. I added a login form to the registration page as well if loginform=on in the address.

So not really sure what else I could do as I have been searching for this one for a few days!

[gideons]

I would like to make my sidebar look like bborg sidebar

So with a Forum List

Search Box

Hot Tags

RSS

Views

and maybe even add a Latest Discussions

which shows the last five or ten active threads

in WP you just add widgets but bb does not seem to have that luxury

Thanks for your help

[kevinjohngallagher]

The latest Trunk has a few little glitches, but my singular site running the “trunk” version on and off for the last 6-8 weeks has been holding up very nicely indeed.

Gautum (et. all) have been doing some stellar work, and the fact that we’re finding more bugs to fix is never a bad thing. I’ve no issue with us bouncing around from 0 to 5 bugs as we make everything more stable – and really, it’s close to stable now just slightly less table than say a month ago.

We officially cleared the 1.0.3 trac que 2 weeks ago, and I’m sure we’ll do it again soon. Of course we’ll need someone to actually make the decision to package and release though…

=====================================================================

The big issue I have with 1.0.3 is that one of the outstanding bugs (#1228) is needing to be fixed in BackPress before we can release.

Given that we’re Leaderless, i’m wondering how’s taking control of that and communicating it with the BackPress team, and if we’re actually going to wait on a new version of BackPress to be released before we consider releasing 1.0.3? When is that new version of BackPress likely to arrive?

Who’s making these decisions?

[gerikg]

<?php $topic = $GLOBALS['topic'] = current( get_latest_topics( array( 'number' => 1, 'forum' => get_forum_id() ) ) ); ?>

<a href="<?php forum_last_post_link();?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a>

works for me

[chrishajer]

Trunk right now is a little bit unstable. There were a couple of search related bugs that were not fixed properly.

You can test it, but not in a production environment, please.

[kevinjohngallagher]

I’ve a slightly better/different question:

Who’s leading this project and thus making the decision on when 1.0.3 is?

and any chance that (mythical??) person could answer:

Can we decide if we’re working on bbpress 1.0.3 or bbpress 1.1?

Because Matt always reffered to 1.1, and infact 1.0.3 only started being used to describe about the time that Matt left.

Infact, it appears some developers are talking about 1.1-alpha, and yet in trac we’re dealing with 2 different streams (1.0.3 and 1.1) :S

Oh how I’d give my right testical for a Project Manager or some actual communication

[gerikg]

@chrishajer sorry about that. I’ll write it out just in case someone else sees it

The issue:

this page as an example

Info

* 3 posts

* 3 voices

* Started 19 hours ago by gerikg

* Latest reply from _ck_

Where it says “3 posts” it was appearing “3 posts + 1 more” because I had 4 post and I deleted one. + 1 more will be a link to the deleted post.

@_ck_ yes that would explain it, thank you. I didn’t realize it just freaked me out because I downgraded from WPMU and I had to do some DB editting.

@ Mr_pelle

Thanks for ur plugin.I tried it but unfortunately it didn’t worked for my forum.I changed the RewriteBase as follows while I was testing it on localhost as my test forum is installed at http://localhost/bbpress/

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /bbpress/

Then replaced the code of .htaccess with the code in nicer-htaccess > activated plugin > activated permalinks name based option from admin panel.

But got following error:

“Oops! This link appears to be broken.”

in Google Chrome while navigating the forum.

Secondly even I tried to test ur plugin on my server where my forum is installed at http://www.xyz.com/ so I changed RewriteBase to

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

But I could not find any .htaccess file in root folder on server.So I tried to upload it through FTP but got an error :

“The name you specified is not allowed”

coz of “.” in .htaccess name.

Please help..

[mr_pelle]

Would it be wrong to suggest that 1) moving from 0.9 to 1.0 wasn’t done yesterday and 2) shouldn’t we test before rolling out this stuff?

I mean, Homepage being down for 3 days. Plugin directory not showing a months worth of updates. etc etc

Sadly quoting…

[kevinjohngallagher]

I guess most of these problems were from the plugin section previously using a semi-custom version of 0.9 and then they replaced it with 1.0 at stock settings

bbPress 1.x feedback appreciated as it’s not been strongly tested on it and making the UI compatible with both versions was a little tricky.

[zaerl]

I’m not sure I’m using the ‘WordPress bbPress cookie plugin’ you mention

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-integration/

I have only tested it in my XAMPP sandbox (Debian) cause I had only few minutes for it. Apache/2.2.12, PHP/5.3.0, MySQL 5.1.37.

The “email is required” error can be spawn only from register.php file line 33 and only if $_POST isn’t defined (well I just made a quick look so I could have written something that isn’t true.) But it’s very strange. If you want to make a quick test do print_r($_POST); and see what you got.

Damn I can’t help. Maybe it’s the first time in my life in which I would like to have a software bug.
