I have the latest releases of each I beleive:

bbpress 1.0.2

buddypress 1.0.3

and I followed these instructions as close as possible I believe.

http://umwblogs.org/wiki/index.php/Integrating_WPMu,_BuddyPress,_and_bbPress

It did not work, I have actually tried differenct variations 4 times now. When I was at the last part I got locked out of bbpress and could not log back in. That is where I am now in this issue. please assist.

Now, I can stay logging with different users in blog and forums…

Anything is wrong, but I don´t know what…

More ideas…??

P. Always delete all cache+cookies to test it…

P.D2: Testing…. from this form, I can´t access to the dashboard….. damn…

Hi,

Is it possible to browse to the complete forum? I mean to a page that has no latest discussions, just the forum and its subsections.

If I browse to domain/forum.php I’m being redirected to the frontpage. The frontpage has latest discussions and below that you have the forums and its subforums.

I want a page with only the forums, so I can put on my frontpage the latest discussions and in th navigation a link to the forums.

Anyone?

Hi all,

Recently, I installed WordPress (2.8.3) and bbPress (latest stable 1.0.2). The integration of users works correctly, but not the single sign on not work.

I can register in blog and the user it´s created in both and viceversa.

But i can´t logged in in both at the same time.

I have installed the plugin bb Integrationi in WordPress, and AUTH KEY, AUTH salt, etc… same in both config files, same in admin dashboards and add the COOKIEPATH in the wp-config…

When I login in, in any of them, 6 cookies are created: (????? are letters and numbers, same in all the cookies)

With the steps of this post, all is same…

Any idea about what its wrong?

BBpress Latest Discussions works.

…if the email address/domain tested against the DNS? that might be a problem for users on a windows host

I have been trying to implement tag exclusion in custom views and loops, without success.

I was looking at registering a custom view (example below) with the tag excluded. I assume this means adding ” AND tag_id !=xxx” or similar to the query, but I can’t find out how to do this.

$args = array( ‘order_by’ => ‘topic_title’, ‘order’ => ‘DESC’ );

bb_register_view( ‘alphabetical-descending’, __(‘Alphabetical: Descending (Z — A)’, ‘desc’), $args, false );

I also tested a more hackish method (requires core edits for proper pagination) from another thread:

function filter_front_page_topics($where){

$exclude_tags=array (“<tagid goes here>”);

if ( is_front() ) {foreach($exclude_tags as $tag) { $where.=” AND tag_id != “.$tag.” “; }}

return $where;

}

This returns no posts, though the original version for forum exclusion works…

Any suggestions about how to proceed with either approach would be appreciated.

I do not know what happened in the last two weeks, but also my fresh 1.0.2 install throws an error when clicking on a “RSS feed for this topic”.

Errore interpretazione XML: la dichiarazione XML o testuale non è all'inizio di un'entità

Indirizzo: http://www.kirpi.it/r/rss/topic/test-di-lenti

Linea numero 2, colonna 1:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Any idea about it, please?

Does anybody know if the issue has been addressed, so that instead of spoiling my site in the effort to fix it, I’d better wait for the next release?

According to _ck_ bbPress is faster. According to Sam phpBB is “probably” faster in some situations, in others bbPress is faster. In most situations I’d assume bbPress would load paages faster simply because it generally has a lot less to do, both content wise (less features = less HTML/CSS) and processing wise. The only way to tell would be to bench test two identical setups, but I haven’t heard of anyone doing that before.

In most practical situations I doubt the performance issues are a real issue though. The way you code your theme will probably have more effect on page load times than anything in the backend.

This is all just guess work though.

I have the latest versions of WordPressMU, Buddypress, and bbpress installed on my site. Each component works fine individually, but I can’t get the logins to integrate. When I login to WordPress and I switch over to bbpress, I still need to login again. I have verified my cookie/salt/auth settings in both wp and bb config.php files. It’s driving me crazy. I’ll PAY someone to help me hack this. I’m probably just missing one simple step, but I can’t figure out what it is. Please help! Thanks!!!

There’s an issue with RSS feeds not validating. The problem appears to stem from » in the titles (rss.php) so I swapped them all with ::.

It now validates. It did work fine in Safari, but Firefox and IE threw up errors. Will report in trac…

Feed validation for this thread: http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbbpress.org%2Fforums%2Frss%2Ftopic%2Fcall-for-testers-on-the-09-branch-and-10-trunk

There’s also a recommendation to not use <textInput>.

[eclipsenow]

I’m wondering if I can use BBpress as a “blog” with the latest “articles” showing up as the “Latest posts” do here in BBpress.

So can I set up BBpress set to have a Navigation bar along the top with typical “About us” pages, “How you can help”, etc? (The usual top 5 to 10 pages you have on blog or introduction to your website etc). Any other ideas?

Then everything else can just be in the forums.

Also, because BBpress is a VERY stripped back forum with lots of plugins, does the plugin for email notifying still work? (Getting an email any time someone replies). Can I set ALL users to getting that?

Can I as the Admin set the “Tags/categories” that posters can then select from?

Is there an auto-backup plugin of some sort? (I hate database stuff).

What else do I need to install to use BBpress as my main community portal / blog (without wordpress).

[gardenfl]

Thank you. This looks like exactly what I need. And you better believe I will try it first on a test site and go slowly.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

I’d be lazy and take something like Tom (db)’s WPNews and flip it around

For RSS, you can google around for solutions. I’m not sure there are any bb specific ones.

[blah]

Thanks for the reply, Ipstenu. Can you please explain what changes I’d need to make and what I would need to insert into my templates in order to pull the ‘comments’ RSS feed into my sidebar?

Next question

If i had a special “dedicated” server only for MySQL is 256MB Ram is enough for my forum??

(200k topics, 100users online in one moment, 12k all users)

Sorry for this questions, but i cant test it.

I’ve discovered that several of my plugins that have admin menus will not be able to access the admin menu in bbPress 0.9.0.7 and 1.0.3 because of the new admin menu security lockdown that was merged from WordPress 2.8.3 (essentially I didn’t go through the API for bbPress 0.8 compatibility).

I’ve now fixed what I can find but there will be other plugins with the same problem.

[_ck_]

I highly recommend people learn how to install bbPress (and wordpress) via SVN, it makes life incredibly easy. You can switch between bbPress versions in a heartbeat, test new betas or jump back to the previous version effortlessly.

See this topic for more info:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/svn-procedure-for-checking-out-bbpress

and my note at the end on how to install SVN as a simple client instead of the whole darn thing.

A quick glance looks like Sam has ported the fast recount queries into 1.0 as well.

Note that not all of the recount functions are optimized yet but a few are vastly improved.

[apbai]

I have installed the latest wp and bbpress with cookie integration enabled. But it seems not working. If log in from wp, bbpress account is automatically logged out. Same thing the other way around. What could be wrong? I believe I set all the keys correctly.

[deadlyhifi]

no fast recount on the 1.0?

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Wait, just your latest posts in BB in your bb-sidebar?

You could port ’em in via RSS or make a function to call your database and pull in the latest posts.

Because of mysql replication, using the mysql cache is probably impossible on wp.com

Once you move beyond a single mysql server, things get complicated fast.

But that’s specifically the environment memcache was written for, not single server systems.

(by the way, how large is the wp.com memcache pool? I bet it’s massive)

However I find the MySQL cache has not been turned on for many VPS/dedicated servers. That’s a performance showstopper and makes a huge difference when the same queries are being done over and over on a typical bbPress install. A PHP opcode cache is the next largest performance improvement.

Here is the typical breakdown for MySQL vs Memcached performance:

Cache Type 	 Cache Gets/sec  (higher is better)

Array Cache  		365000              (this is local memory, fastest possible)

APC Cache 	 	98000                        (this is common memory via apc/eaccelertor/xcache)

File Cache  		27000                        (this is using the local disk cache)

Memcached Cache (TCP/IP) 	12200     <<<<====---

MySQL Query Cache (TCP/IP) 	 9900

MySQL Query Cache (Unix Socket)  13500    <<<<===---   (local mysql server, with cache)

Selecting from table (TCP/IP)	 5100             (remote mysql server, no cache)

Selecting from table (Unix Socket)  7400     (local mysql server, no cache)

As crackpixels said, he meant to have a list of “latest replies for topics.”

I hope we won’t be needing a WP install to make this plugin work.

This is coming out tomorrow, with or without feedback.
