    For testing your connection to the database:

    http://www.ardamis.com/2008/05/26/a-php-script-for-testing-a-mysql-database-connection/

    It’s a little more than necessary but looks like it should work

    @kevin

    yeah buddy! was off track now back to the game ;)

    I will investigate by hard-coding cookiepath, cookiedomain and like stuff in bbPress too.

    I understand your point completely, I would have done the same for production sites and kept the testing going on test site.

    chrishajer – I think this comment is worth exploring more: from post https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/upgrade-errors-it-looks-like-your-database-is-out-of-date

    How can the bbPress upgrade/install know the database is out of date if it cannot connect to the database? I thought the version was stored in the database in the first place. I might have to try breaking my bb-config.php and attempting to upgrade a 0.9 installation to see how this works. Haven’t tried in a while.

    I get the same results time after time. Anytime I try to upgrade my 0.9 DB using the new 1.02 fileset, I am presented with a DB connection error. I ask the same question – how can I get to the login page or the ‘your DB is out of date – upgrade’ page without some form of DB connection?

    If it is making an initial connection, what could break it? Could a secret_key / salt mismatch do it? Would anything break the bb DB connection on the WP side (I’m upgrading a non-integrated 0.9 DB into an integrated WP install). Should I wipe out the WP integration first?

    Also – does anyone know a way to create a simple php file (or other method) to test the connectivity of the app server to the db server? I just want to verify the connection outside of the WP / BB install – in case something is wonky there.

    thanks for any ideas…

    Yo dudes,

    @Zaerl

    I know matey, wasn’t meant in a bad way at all :)

    In terms of backward compatability, there’s quite a bit of change to how constructs and classes are handled, and depending on when the code was written, could cause some hidden issues.

    bbPress 0.7,0.8 & 0.9 weren’t major rewrites of any of the basic backend code. A huge chunk of them were written by Matt over a weekend some 7 years ago and the move to backPress was a definative leap (fully awesome OOPness – as much as its kinda useless ).

    So what i meant wasn’t just the leap from PHP4final to PHP5; but also things that were not aimed for PHP4 but that PHP4 supported. i.e. The code that was still in bbPress0.9 that was written when PHP3 was still around.

    @Ashfame

    Long time bro.

    I know the problem of which you speak mate, and while not knowing exactly which bit of code makes it go away, I’ve not had it in ages.

    Login in wordpress >>> check that i’m “logged in” on bbPress >>> access admin.

    Yeah it all works. I’ll have to delve into the code when home, but I think the sites I’m testing on are using “super anne” code/plugin. I also doubt these are on the latest versions of bbpress/wordpress. Frankly I’ve accepted that installing bbpress means not upgrading wordpress.

    As i recall from the long long long thread in 2008, the key thing was having:

    in wordpress config:

    define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ”);

    define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

    in bbPress config:

    $bb->authcookie = ‘wordpress_’;

    $bb->cookiedomain = ”;

    $bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;

    $bb->sitecookiepath = ”;

    The basic theory was that the bbPress admin, wasn’t reading the wordpress cooking properly or at all, something to do with when it was assigning/pulling data from the “$bb” global variable; so it wouldn’t let you access the admin panel of bbPress. But by setting this info in the config (loaded first) it solved it.

    That may be pie in the sky my friend, but thats what my brain is telling me.

    Ashfame. Maybe I was a bit rude but these are the facts.

    bbPress 1.0.2 offers anonymous posting? The answer is “no.”

    Is there fully functional plugins that fill this lack for the actual official bbPress version? No. I tested BB Anonymous Posting and it doesn’t work in 1.0.2 (at least in my case.)

    I have implemented moderation queues in my private trunk version of zaerl Visibility. I have planned to bundle this feature in the upcoming public 0.2 version.

    Basically speaking on the new version you can specify that new topics and new posts must be hidden by default and that they can be reset (in this case “approved”) by moderators through the admin panel. It functions already but I will release the 0.2 only after exaustive beta-testing _and_ if I got positive feedbacks.

    Okay – recovered from the previous (no theme) issue. My ‘restore’ also included all the WP tables by mistake. So, I wiped it out & reloaded only the BB tables. My theme is working…the forum link takes me to the “looks like your database is out of date…upgrade” note…

    And then I get a ERROR: Could not establish a database connection message.

    I’ve been through this SO MANY TIMES!

    Besides the HOST, USER, PASSWORD, NAME settings in bb-config.php – are there other settings (either in files or in the DB tables) that would prevent my scripts from accessing my DB?

    I’ve verified my USER and PW via phpMyAdmin – they are good.

    My HOST i’ve tried changing to every know setting & tested (and failed)

    The things I’m thinking of now I have no clue about: Charset, Collation, secret keys, etc? Can any of these settings in my bb-config.php file possibly conflict with what is in the DB (the keys, charset, collation, etc)?

    Thanks for any ideas….

    My cookie keys match between the 2 configs. I didn’t have the COOKIEPATH definition in bbpress, only in wp, so I put that in but still no luck.

    I have wp installed in a sub-directory so my statement is: define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/blogs/’);

    I just tried another test install without sub-directory and that won’t work either!

    First: the installation instructions don’t mention that you need a mail server in order to send emails cause it is implicit. Is like saying that you need to connect to the gmail servers in order to send emails from your gmail account.

    Second: yes they are. XAMPP and other LAMP software are just test platforms and they are very different from a service that professional hosting companies give you. A little configuration is needed and setting up a mail server is one aspect that you must cover.

    Third: Pegasus Mail must be configured. bbPress no (only the mail in bb-admin/options-general.php). It just use the mail() functionality of PHP that is a layer on top of the email server specified at server level.

    Four: no. 99% of companies that provide hosting solutions do give you access to a fully functional mail server and you don’t have to worry about that.

    I have a wp/bbp integration where I recently upgraded both from previous versions to wp 2.9.2 and bbp 1.0.2. I was able to get them to share accounts so you can login to both with the same passwords but I can’t get the cookie integration working at all. Logging into one doesn’t automatically log you into the other.

    I decided to do a fresh install of the latest versions of both to see if that would work but I’m having the exact same issue. I tried cutting the salts down to 32 characters as suggested above but still no luck.

    I installed the bbpress integration plugin in wp but that’s not helping either.

    I’m wondering if there is some incompatibility between wp 2.9.2 and bbp 1.0.2?

    This is on a dreamhost server, and it all worked well before I tried to upgrade.

    last week i make a simple modification with wp-facebookconnect plugin by adam hump to work in bbpress. so here is the file

    http://rapidshare.com/files/379814279/wp-facebookconnect.rar

    this plugin is not recomended if you don’t understand php code, because the code from wordpress plugin still there. i have no time to clean it, if i got more time next week maybe i can update the feature to work like the real wp plugin. you can setting your api key and secret key in the admin panel

    feature :

    – Single-signon with your Facebook account <– fully working but still need some test (tested in 2 online site)

    – avatar <– not tested

    – Publish comments to the newsfeed <– not yet, maybe next week

    I first found BBpress 3 years ago. Personally I don’t remember finding BBpress or what I used it for, but I know that my account on here is 3 years old. I wonder if I have amnesia :P

    When I rediscovered BBpress yesterday I was pretty excited because the fact is that there isn’t anything like this on the net. This is the smoothest, lightest, nicest looking forum software out there.

    However, (and it’s always the however that gets y0u) BBpress needs a little forum work. I made a pun. Seriously, just trying to download plugins has been a major pain. Half the files either don’t work or they aren’t there. Some have major security flaws.

    So I ask you this, “Where are the forum moderators?” Make BBpress a bit more friendly and you’ll not only make it work better, you’ll also grab more interest from people who will make BBpress a phenomenon.

    What would start the discussion in the forums? If it’s a blog post that will get comments, then I think threaded comments in WordPress are probably better.

    The 1.1 release will have login-less posting. It’s in the latest trunk version now. Maybe you want to try that and see if it works for you?

    You can download trunk here https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/trunk

    I have it done partly. The hold up is I wanted it to look closer to BuddyPress Group forum (http://testbp.org/forums/). I can just have bbpress look the way it does by default , that’s easy enough, would that be good enough for you?

    Sent. The plugin is 90% finished. I’ve added a new feature that Xevo asked for and after some testing I will release it. Basically speaking is a list of users that are not affected by hide/lock rules like super users/roles but made in a per topic/forum base.

    @cNc What specifically did not work?

    That thread you refer to is a mess. The WP Theme and the bbP Theme you sent me does NOT pull the style.css in the bbP theme folder at all. You might call the global variables but never this line <link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php bb_stylesheet_uri(); ?>” type=”text/css” />

    If you did pull the style.css, it would look like this:

    Notice the Green and white background and other changes.

    But you don’t pull the style.css from the bbP theme that is why it looks like this:

    @mr_pelle I couldn’t get it to work on the test site, email me?

    #87015

    I am VERY interested, and ready to test it.

    @cNc: well, I believe my plugin actually is pretty easy to use: you just have to make it able to write on your config file and then activate it. I don’t know how it could be more simple!

    Regarding making it better, sure I will, because it is going to be used in the forum of the company I’m currently having internship in!

    It would be just great to test it in different bbPress installation, that’s why I uploaded it in the repository: I’m waiting for your feedbacks! =)

    will i get all these features via plugins , with 0.9 ?

    O, I did integration with lastest releases wordpress (2.9.2) and bbpres (1.0.2), I just guess that long chain of previous upgrades can influence on bbpress integration with wordpress (may be database upgrades have some inaccuracy etc.)

    #87124

    Yes it may have been a little different if you did the integration with older releases. The best thing to do is to upgrade WordPress to the latest version, then bbPress, and then do the integration. Rather than integrate the scripts and then upgrade them. :)

    #87076

    In reply to: Compatibility ….

    I’d also like to keep 0.9 for the plugins. So far I’ve had it working fine integrated with a WP 2.9.2 but I wan’t to have WP 3.0. Unfortunately on my test install I can’t get the cookies to sync.

    Anyone had any experience with WP 3.0 beta and bbPress 0.9.6?

    @cNc: the best thing would be to test the forum out of a WordPress page, so there would be no header/footer problems.
