bbpress 0.9.04

wordpress latest post 0.20

Reputatioin 0.0.6

BBpress Latest Discussion 1.3

[john500]

and BBPress Latest Discussions. It says someone posting and there name and then their name and post is not appearing inside the topic. In BBPress Latest Discussion will say last post by So and So and then that persons post does not appear and a different topic will then be displayed. Also the number of posts is incorrect. I am not sure if this means that Database is corrupted. Also reputation cannot be fixed unable to have it take away reputation points.

Anyone able to look into this offer solutions. I need this on a emergency basis. Thanks

Are you trying the stable release of both or the latest development ones?

[dawormie]

I know nothing about the Bozo thing so don’t have that activated. i did however activate Akismet!

I think I might just use the human test and if that isn’t enough turn on bozo…

[johnhiler]

I also use the Human Test plugin, and find it invaluable for preventing spammer from joining.

I also use Akismet though. It comes in handy, because my forum has human users who like to promote their websites (it’s a wedding website, and there are lots of wedding vendors). So the Human Test plugin wouldn’t catch those guys.

Basically – if you have human spammers, then a system which can “learn” who is spamming (either through Akismet or through a Bozo system) is critical. If your spammers are just bots, than Human Test is more than enough!

Re: the Bozo thing though… I had too many problems with that, and ended up disabling it. It may work better now… I gave up on it a year or so ago.

Good luck!

[chrishajer]

For 2+ years I have been using the Human Test plugin and nothing else. I have akismet turned off and also turned off bozo functionality. I get very little spam, like none in the past year. Preventing the spammer registrations seems to be key to keeping automated spam out of the forums.

Human Test puts zero additional load on the server.

[nigelhill]

I can’t install this either. There is no install.php file in the latest zipped version!

EDIT: It’s not that it’s missing, it’s that the link to install points to the wrong place, I found the install file in bb-admin/

[mishrapradeep]

i am using latest one which is available at internet which is version .09 etc something like that.I have downloaded plugin which link you have given but how to integrate this plugin with my running forum.Idea of instant password is very good and i want to apply.Please help me on this .I am very new in php programming.Since It is somthing urgent hence it is request to all please help me to integrate it.

Thanks

Hello,

I’ve been running 0.9.4 for about six months now without major problems but today something happened. No new posts can be made and the following error displays:

bbPress database error: [Duplicate entry '7582' for key 1]

INSERT INTO bb_posts (<code>topic_id</code>,<code>post_text</code>,<code>post_time</code>,<code>poster_id</code>,<code>poster_ip</code>,<code>post_status</code>,<code>post_position</code>,<code>forum_id</code>) VALUES ('6','



test post text text text text

','2009-05-25 11:56:28','3','88.222.104.78','0','121','8')



Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /path-to-bbpress/bb-includes/db-mysql.php:130) in /path-to-bbpress/bb-includes/pluggable.php on line 232

New posts get registered in the latest-discussions list but the link to them is “#post-0” and they don’t display in the actual topic, nor in the admin panels. They actually don’t exist in the DB.

The last existing post in bb_posts is with post_id of 7581

Luckily I have a working backup before the error occurred but I want to know what might have caused it.

I tested Vanilla out for a week or so, then bbPress (I’d tried every other flavour out there in the two weeks before). Vanilla is cool, and I love the look of version 2, but bbPress is what I’m going with now for 2 community forums.

As to speed, I haven’t done any ‘proper’ testing, but find bbPress very fast. Also, all the plugins I need worked first time without problems,and the default theme is very easy to adapt. bbPress only uses 8 core tables compared to 14 in Vanilla. I guess that might speed things up a little, as there are less eggs in the air..?

[Sam Bauers]

Just a little Easter Egg for Release Candidate testers

[swaymedia]

.. the latest bbpress with the latest wordpress. Could I use the bbPress forum list loop on the frontpage of my wordpress theme? so i can show all the latest discussions.. this wont be on a sidebar, so i dont want a plugin to do this, I just want to use the same code bbPress uses but on WordPress to show the forum topics?

is this possible.? thanks in advanced.

In fact, I didn’t have a single plugin that was not working but for the WP shared logins of course. I didn’t have the chance to test every little setting of these but the basic functionality works.

[magicgirl]

Hi, I have installed wpmu2.7.1, BuddyPress 1.0 and bbpress “Brubeck” version 0.9.0.4.

I installed wpmu first all good

I installed buddy press all good

I installed bbpress all good

I added a few bbpress plugins for groups , comminuty blogs and another for fbconnect all good

Then i read about intergrating the logins and was linked to the screen cast step by step…even tho is said basic wp install i noticed the tag was MU so i continued.

I got to the bit where you generate the secret keys I did this grabbed the 4 keys pasted into wp-config, i left the salt and other keys in tact. Saved and uploaded the file.

Then the video said check you can login…i checked but i canont login to WPMU I get no error only a white screen, this is for admin and member logins.

Any idea what to do if the login test in the video fails?

There are no errors in the error log, there is no error on screen, only a white blank page.

I now cannot install the plugin mentioned above as i have no access to the dashboard.

How can i get the original auth/secret keys back?

Or how can i fix it, i don’t reallly want to start again as i have spent days on other tweaks and skinning and such that would be painful to lose.

I can still login to bbpress fine.

Thanks in advance for any pointers…

[johnhiler]

Try disabling all your plugins and see if it works?

If it does work with all plugins off, turn them on one at a time… and test the ratings/stars after each plugin is enabled. When it stops working, we’ll know we found the conflict!

The other possibility is that it’s a conflict with your CSS. If it doesn’t work even with all the plugins off, try activating Kakumei and seeing if adding stars to that works for you?

[TrishaM]

Hi John – thanks for the code. I copied it exactly & pasted it into my topic.php (except for the styles) but it still didn’t work for me, so I removed the requirement to log in to vote, with still no luck. Hovering changes the stars color, but clicking does nothing at all.

Do you think it’s likely that there’s a conflict with another plugin that might be causing it to not work? I’m using the following plugins (in addition to bbRatings):

Akismet

Bozo Users

BBCode lite

BBCode buttons toolbar

BBPress signatures

BBPress smilies

Topics Per Page

bbPress tweaks

Human test for bbPress

Moderator new post notification

The only one I think I could do without is the smilies, but I really want to keep the others more than the ratings if I can’t figure out how to get it working……P.S. Two days since I posted on mdawaffe’s blog and still no response…..I just get the impression that he doesn’t want to support this any more……

[mcmc]

I dunno if my post gets deleted, but I posted this twice already and can’t find it, so here another try.

I tried installing the latest version of the social network from buddypress two days ago, but I fear it isn’t working properly. Whenever I click on a link, be it a member, blog, post, groups, create groups, etc I get redirected back to my homepage where my blog is. Is there a plugin that I am missing or do I have to set up sth?

Thanks.

[michael3185]

I’ve tried installing bbPress 0.9.0.4 twice now, and with the same results both times. It installs, runs, lets me into the ACP to change things, etc. I add nothing more than a topic and a post, and get this for every link I select;

Not Found

The requested URL /topic/welcome-to-the-forum was not found on this server.

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

It’s all in the DB, so what’s happening? Any help appreciated before I go mad (have tried 5 BB packages in 3 weeks trying to meet my users requirements).

[edit]

Aha! Found a post elsewhere about changing Pretty Permalinks, and that was what wrecked it. Should perhaps have some sort of internal test when you click the dropdown list..?

[Elias]

Oh, I checked my webserver’s log and found that my rather obsolete German translation is still downloaded frequently. So I decided to rework it for the latest stable bbPress 0.9.0.4.

You can download my language file on my German blog.

And now for the folks that understand German better than English:

Oha, ich habe einen Blick in die Logdateien meines Webservers geworfen und musste dabei feststellen, dass meine ziemlich veraltete deutsche Übersetzung immer noch häufig heruntergeladen wird. Deshalb habe ich meine Übersetzung für die aktuelle stabile Version 0.9.0.4 von bbPress überarbeitet.

Wer mag, kann meine Sprachdatei in meinem kleinen Blog herunterladen…

When my users click the same link while signed out, they get sent to a similar link:

http://boards.weddingbee.com/bb-login.php?re=http%3A%2F%2Fboards.weddingbee.com%2F%3Fnew%3D1

So it looks like bbPress is sending users to the right place. So I played around with your URL a bit:

http://www.endsofearth.com/forum/bb-login.php?re=http://www.endsofearth.com/

That didn’t work either, so I stripped off the re= part completely:

http://www.endsofearth.com/forum/bb-login.php

That worked… suggesting that the problem is with the re= part and your htaccess file.

Just when I was feeling clever, I did a quick Google search and ck had already figured it all out:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/latest-discussions-add-new-link-problem-if-not-logged

Maybe try disabling MultiViews or checking your htaccess file?

[Erunafailaro]

Same problem here. There are no mismatches between my manually set cookie paths. However, is there a list of all cookie paths that could be set?

All I did was upgrading to RC1. Before that, with the latest alpha-release, this problem did not occur.

I am using WP 2.7.1 (not WPMU).

[_ck_]

Here is an untested variation of Mark’s WP plugin for bbPress, it’s a little more sophisticated in that it tries to return the person back to the topic they were in if it exists or if they were starting a topic, to the forum they were posting in.

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Moderation Notification

Author: _ck_

*/



add_action( 'bb_post.php', 'moderation_notification', 999);

add_action( 'bb_head', 'moderation_notification_alert', 999);



function moderation_notification($post_id) {

if (empty($post_id)) {return;}	 //   invalid post

$post = bb_get_post($post_id);

if ($post->post_status==0) {return;} 	//  not moderated



if ($post->post_position>1) {

$link = get_topic_last_post_link($post->topic_id);	// return them to the last known good post in the topic

} else {

$link = get_forum_link($post->forum_id);		// return them to the forum that they posted in since there's no valid topic yet

}



$link=add_query_arg('moderated','true',$link); 		// set the flag



wp_redirect($link);

exit;

}



function moderation_notification_alert() {

if (!isset($_GET['moderated'])) {return;}

$out = <<<EOF

<script type="text/javascript">

<!--

alert ("You post was successfully processed, \n\n however it was placed on hold and will appear once a moderator verifies that it is not spam.\n\n Please be patient and do not resubmit your comment.");

//-->

</script>

EOF;

echo $out;

}



?>

You can see the notice by putting ?moderated=true on one of your urls

I don’t recommend trying to purposely cause spam to test it because akismet might flag you globally as a spammer and you’ll end up being bozo’ed across multiple forums/blogs.

Everything matches, everything is UTF8 (since I am running a Russian site). All headers and meta show utf8. The DB is all UTF8…

Could you tell me what function reads users from WP db? I would follow from there.

Example: http://www.ourtx.com/ourtx/forum/topic/43

DB is WP 2.7.1 all UTF8_general_ci where it concerns text fields

Plus, I have a chron job that gets latest posts and prints them on the left side of the website, it gets that user name in Cyrillic just fine.
