Some bug fixes and additional features have been added to 0.9 branch and 1.0 trunk

For those that know how to download them off svn/trac and read the changes on trac, we’d appreciate some testing before a wide release tomorrow.

http://trac.bbpress.org/timeline

Notable on the 0.9 are my fast recount functions that will really help large sites, be sure to backup your db “just in case”.

When I edited the Kakumei files, I recreated a sidebar to match the look of the blog with the forum tags and other stuff (blog latest posts, etc.), but without the widgets. The look still matches the blog, though the content of the sidebar is different. Whatever you have as text widgets in the blog you can always hard code in the forum sidebar.

The “sidebar” is in front-page.php, under

<div id=”hottags” role=”main”>

hard code any sidebar content there, then match the css in the stylesheet. You can even float the div to the right, rather than the left, depending on your blog’s theme.

[_ck_]

If this appears in your front-page.php, then you have bbPress 1.0.x and you have a bug

<?php bb_latest_topics_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="nav">', 'after' => '</div>' ) ); ?>

The same bug was in some rare cases of 0.9

and I programmed around it in topics-per-page

I doubt it will work properly on 1.0 but you can try installing the plugin, remove the above line and replace it with

<div class="nav"><?php front_page_pages(); ?></div>

I’m trying to integrate WordPress MU 2.8.3 and bbPress 1.0.2

When I access my site through WordPress everything works fine, I see myself logged in at bbPress and I can access the admin area. When I access my site through bbPress and then go to /wp-admin/, it redirects me here: /wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mydomain.com%2Fwp-admin%2F. I can fill in the login name and password, and it’ll let me in, but it should just appear the dashboard in the first place…

I’ve followed Sam’s screencast, step by step, and tried it over three times with fresh installs… but still happens the same. But I don’t know, maybe I’m missing something.

First I install Wordpres Mu. Then I go to the bbPress installation page. I fill in everything to integrate it with WordPress. Then I map the user registrations, although I have also left this step for the last one in another installation/integration. I go WordPress, download the bbPress plugin, copy the cookies configuration, paste it into wp-config.php. The I delete all the cookies and temp files in my browser.

It’s strange, cause when I go to the home page of the site I can see I’m logged in:

WordPress µ

This is a WordPress Mu powered site.

You can:

* Site Admin

* Log out

* Create a new blog

* Edit this file at wp-content/themes/home/home.php with your favourite text editor and customize this screen.

But it still won’t access the administration dashboard. I’ve tried registering another user giving it administration control, but the redirection thing still happens.

It’s kinda funny cause one of the times I installed WordPress Mu and bbPress while I was testing, I could integrate them with no problem. But when I tried it under the final domain, it always happens the same, and gives me that ‘little’ problem.

These are the cookies when I access the admin areas:

After WordPress login:

wordpress_logged_in_*****************

wordpress_*************

bb_user-settings-time-1

After going from WordPress Admin Dashboard to bbPress Admin Dashboard:

wordpress_logged_in_*****************

wordpress_*****************

wordpress_*****************

wordpress_test_cookie

bb_user-settings-time-1

wp-settings-time-1

wp-settings-1

I delete all the browser’s cookies and do the opposite.

After bbPress login:

wordpress_logged_in_*****************

wordpress_*************

bb_user-settings-time-1

After going from bbPress Admin Dashboard to WordPress Admin Dashboard:

This is when the redirection problem comes in!

wordpress_test_cookie

wordpress_logged_in_*****************

Ah but I use Buddypress and when users create groups in bp, automatical Subforums are created (Under the Parent forum id 1) in BbPress. But if I hide forum 1 (The parent), the other forum topics will still show in the latest discussions.

And Its too painful to go and edit this afterwards. It must be automatic.

I got some if Statement working with the forum loop. I excluded some subforums showing by using:

`<?php if ( bb_forums() ) : ?>

<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : global $forum; if ($forum->forum_parent != 0) continue; ?>

<!– insert forum stuff to be looped –>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php endif; // bb_forums() ?>`

but I cant get it working with topics.

[hpguru]

Yes.

[deadlyhifi]

Not sure about that since I don’t have any sub forums.

Have you tried adding to $exclude_forums? Like this $exclude_forums=array ("3", "4","6");?

[HimSelf (Gregory)]

Ok thks,

i think the good uri is https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/front-page-topics/

thanks.

[Josh Leuze]

@johnhiler: I am using 1.1, the latest version of Akismet.

I should also mention that I can’t replicate this. If I mark a post as spam, and then go in and mark that post as not spam, it shows back up just fine in the thread.

It only appears to be happening when Akismet itself filters a post as spam.

[anandasama]

Yeah ! It works by doing that. Thanks!

But Is there a way to add to the query ? If there is a Forum Parent (ie, if the post lies in a subforum) I dont want to display it.

[anandasama]

Yeah I have the same problem. Though everything else work smooth!

[hpguru]

Hi,

Enjoy https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/topics-per-page

[HimSelf (Gregory)]

Hello,

i’m a new user of BBpress, & i wish to thanks you for the fabolous work done behind. This tool is really powerfull & helpfull for me.

it should be great if we will be able to setup individually the “latest discussion” numbers of message to display, instead of changing the numbers of message par page. ( Separate the both option. )

& also to have the possibility to not show the pages numbers for those “latest discussion”.

Best regards

Gregory Janssens

I forgot to deactivate all plugins prior to upgrading to latest version (from 1.0.1), but everything seems to work fine… is deactivation a vital step?

[Sushubh]

i am facing the same problem on my own server. i have successfully tried installing the .x.x versions. this was my first test with 1.x.x release.

PHP 5.2.8

MySQL Version 5.0.51a-community

Web Server apache2handler

Hmm. managed to fix my problem…

check for extra spacing at the end of the bb-config file. that might be causing these problems.

[recronin]

*note – I’m not trying to integrate bbPress into a WordPress page but rather a static page. I already have the login integration between bb and wp working.

I’ve been able to “embed” my WordPress posts into a static web page with the help of an online tutorial using PHP includes. Basically, on the page that you want to have WordPress embedded in, you paste:

<?php require(‘../../../blog/wp-blog-header.php’); ?>

into the very top of the page above the DTD, and then paste The Loop wherever you want your posts to appear.

What I’d like to do is the exact same thing except with bbPress. I’ve tried applying the same basic principle as described as above, but am pretty much stuck and can’t get anything except errors to appear.

Here’s what my code looks like at this point. I’ve used the header file from the kakumei templates folder as that’s the only header file I can find. At the very top above the DTD;

<?php require(‘../../../forums/bb-templates/kakumei/header.php’); ?>

Now I’ve searched high and low for anything talking about “The Loop” (or it’s equivalent) in bbPress but have found zip. The closest things I have seen have been inside the bbPress/index.php and forum.php files, which I pasted and tested each separately into the area that I wanted to have the forums appear, but with no positive results.

If anyone knows how to do this properly I will be grateful.

Thank you

Adam Lawton

I’m willing to bet permissions are NOT correct despite what you think.

Chmod /my-templates/ and /mythemetest/ to 750

[Olaf Lederer]

Hello,

just upgraded to 1.02 and found some issues regarding the “unique email address” bug from before.

Btw. in older version that was a problem too

update the email address in your profile:

If you change the email address into an existing one, it works fine but there is no message about (This is a tiny one)

Register process

I was busy to find some better way to add the recaptcha to the register form and noticed that the login form field is only tested if the email field is already filled. That worked better in version 0.9

everything else looks fine

I am getting some false positives with Akismet on an install of bbPress 1.0.1.

I’m ok with a few legit posts getting marked as spam as long as real spam is getting through. But for some reason I can’t get the posts to show up.

I did a search for spam, found several good posts marked a spam. I selected not spam, and they are no longer listed as spam. I did a recount, optimized my database, the posts are still MIA.

They show up as the latest topic, and when I am logged in, it will say “(60 posts +2 more)”, and when I click “+2 more”, the posts show up.

I even uninstalled Akismet, and checked the posts in the database to make sure there weren’t marked differently, but they are identical to the other posts.

Anyone run into this problem before?

[spencerjw]

For some reason I am getting errors when I try to install a custom theme. I took a default theme and copied it into the my-templates directory and it seems all permissions stuck as the default but I am getting an UNstyled site (CSS path is correct) and even the Screenshot sin’t displaying (just a blank image) in the Admin area.

See below (but permissions *are* all correct):

Forbidden

You don’t have permission to access /wp/bbpress/my-templates/mythemetest/screenshot.png on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I’ve been browsing these forums for the last day and a half while installing the latest version of bbPress on my 2.8.3 install of WP. So far so good with one glaring issue. When I log in as my Admin and click the “Admin” link at the op left of the bbPress page I have no idea if I am actually seeing the admin area or not. I don’t see anything that says Settings or any way to customize my install, change themes, etc…

Am I missing something here? I’m kind of at a loss as to what I can do next to try to debug this issue. Even the login integration with my WP install worked out pretty well. When I log out of one system it successful logs me out of the other, same is true when I log in.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

I’ve seen soooo many people ask that seriously…

The issue I have with “integration” is that WP should be able to call info BB and vice versa. That’s it.

Well, yes. That is a frustration. It’s ‘user integration’ vs ‘application integration’ though. You could try deep integration, but I’ve only done it with BuddyPress and it worked well.

As for plugins, a lot of them actually work, you just have to test them out.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

*head scratch*

On my site, if there’s an unread post in a topic and you click on the bolded topic title, it takes you to the first unread post so … I’m not entirely sure what’s up with that.

As for the new button, you could probably tweak the CSS to prepend a button.

[Milan Dinić]

_ck_, how about linking directly to first unread post like there is with Subscribe to topic? There could be button “New” before or after title of topic that would link to it while title itself would still link as it is now.

[hpguru]

Yes. Check out https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/topics-per-page.
