Hello Kevin!
Thanks for your reply!
I did a clean install of WP 2.7 and then I activated Ann’s plugin.
Then I added the code those three lines in wp-config.php and lost access to dashboard.
Redirect Loop
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
The browser has stopped trying to retrieve the requested item. The site is redirecting the request in a way that will never complete.
* Have you disabled or blocked cookies required by this site?
* NOTE: If accepting the site’s cookies does not resolve the problem, it is likely a server configuration issue and not your computer.
I am currently testing on localhost (XAMPP). Any idea what is causing this loop? May be I need to edit those lines but I dont know how to.
I had to delete the plugin from the plugin directory to access dashboard again.
I would not think of going beyond WP 2.7 unless I am unable to achieve the sync. And regarding the Open ID integration, I would like to keep myself away from it as I need to allow only registered users to login.
HttpOnly cookies are a security advancement that is finally supported now by all major browsers (Firefox eventually got it right in 3.1, while IE 7 still has a bug but it generally works).
HttpOnly means a cookie cannot be read by javascript in the browser, only by the server (via PHP, etc.) This practically stops XSS exploits and makes it much harder if not impossible in most cases.
HttpOnly may “save your bacon” when a plugin has a security hole (like Private Messaging and bb-Reputation 0.0.5) and prevent a malicious script from forwarding your keymaster cookie to someone else via a XSS script.
I manged to get them to include HttpOnly in WordPress 2.7 and bbPress 1.0 but it’s still not in older WordPress or bbPress 0.9 because they worried about backward compatibility with some WordPress plugins that try to directly read the cookie (bad technique) instead of using server-side helpers.
However there are NO bbPress plugins that direct read the auth cookie and very few WordPress plugins still do this. I am not 100% positive how it will affect ajax but it shouldn’t because it’s still authorized on the server-side via PHP.
So if you’d like to try out HttpOnly on your bbPress 0.9, here’s how, it’s as simple as a mini-plugin. Note that if you are already using a cookie replacement plugin like my “Freshly Baked Cookies” or “Year Long Cookies” you will need to edit them instead of using the following (you can only use one cookie replacement plugin at a time).
I’d appreciate any feedback or experiences with this, especially if it causes problems:
Save this as
_HttpOnly.phpand upload into yourmy-plugins/directory:<?php
/*
Plugin Name: HttpOnly Auth Cookie
*/
function wp_set_auth_cookie($user_id, $remember = false) {
global $bb;
if ( $remember ) {
$expiration = $expire = time() + 1209600;
} else {
$expiration = time() + 172800;
$expire = 0;
}
$cookie = wp_generate_auth_cookie($user_id, $expiration);
do_action('set_auth_cookie', $cookie, $expire);
setcookie($bb->authcookie, $cookie, $expire, $bb->cookiepath, $bb->cookiedomain. '; HttpOnly' );
if ( $bb->cookiepath != $bb->sitecookiepath )
setcookie($bb->authcookie, $cookie, $expire, $bb->sitecookiepath, $bb->cookiedomain. '; HttpOnly' );
}
?>To prove it’s working, you CANNOT use the Firefox webdeveloper plugin because that looks at the cookie in Firefox’s chrome, not at the user level. What you have to do is
1. prove you can see your bbpress/wordpress cookie by typing or copying this to your browser address bar
javascript:alert(document.cookie);2. install the plugin
3. log out and then log in
4. again type or copy this to your browser address bar
javascript:alert(document.cookie);5. if it’s working, you should NOT see your wordpress/bbpress cookie in the alert
Currently the only plugin I am aware of that tries to read the cookie directly in WordPress is the
WP-UserOnlineplugin from GamerZ, and he may have even fixed that by now in the newest versions. However there may be others, so test your setup.Topic: Plugin @ ForumMatrix
Not a great title but it’s after 3am here.
I remembered in October last year _ck_ posted a link to ForumMatrix and it’s information on BBpress:
http://www.forummatrix.org/show/bbPress
Now, if it’s not someone involved with the project that keeps ForumMatrix up to date, then i’m very sorry for asking but right now i find it a good source of “where we’re at”, but ee seem to have PLUGIN listed in every box. The thing is, i dont think we have plugins for some of this stuff.
For example, where is the WYSIWYG plugin?
According to forum matrix BBpress has plugins for Full BBcode, WYSIWYG editor, nested quotes, syntax highlighting, multiple file attatchments, acl, blacklist, warnings, suspensions, ip-block, audit logging, user reports, rating/karma system, custom profile fields, split threads, calendar, pruning , archiving, export private messages, lo-fi view.
Thing is, i dont see any working plugins that do those jobs. Now, i’m more than happy to admit that i may be wrong (be great if i was), but i do find the whole current plugin page a bit of a mess (given that the latest plugins, latest talked about plugins, and the highest rated plugins are generally quite similar).
Any help in finding working plugins that BBpress is supposed to have would be really helpful
Thank you all
Hello,
Next days (or weeks) I sill start a new project. It will take long to develop and probably it will be finished later this year. I think it will 6 months or a bit more. It must be integrated with the latest version of WordPress.
So, I’m thinking about starting the project with the 1.0 alpha versions. I know it’s not as stable or secure as 0.9.x but hope it will be later this year. I’ve seen there are lots of changes from 0.9 to 1.0 and perhaps will be easiest to merge the new 1.0 versions than 0.9 to 1.0…
What’s your opinion? It’s the best idea to start the project with the alpha version ? Or you would start it with 0.9x and in the future you will make all arrangements to upgrade it? Consider that it will be finished this year fall.
Thanks for your comments,
Txanny.
Topic: Amended Profile page
(profile.php in theme folder)
My users were asking for the ability to jump to the last post on the ‘User Activity’ area within their profile page. So I amended the page to use tables like the favorites listings do with two columns >

<?php bb_get_footer(); ?>I hate it when something so easy is giving me problems. I have a link to my search page… mysite.com/myforum/search.php… like that. And it works fine, except the font color on the search form itself is a gray or reddish color and it doesn’t go with my dark blue layout… I need the font to be white. With CSS I’ve got the font set to white everywhere else, even the search results are white, but the form itself is not so you can barely read it.
I’ve tried editing the color with CSS, regular html, I’ve been in my search.php in my forum root and my search.php in my template, and I’ve been in my search-form.php file, and no matter what I do… I can only get the font to change in firefox… for some reason in ie6, which should be illegal to use, the font it not white.
I simply added <font color=”white”></font> to the form, and again, it works in firefox, but when I test it with ie6 it doesn’t work. Why?
I even tried adding a new div… I added <div id=”searchcolor”>search form code here</div> then in my CSS file I have #searchcolor {color:white;}, but even that doesn’t work. Nothing seems to change the form font color in ie6.
This is frustrating because it’s something SO simple! Font color!
I want to get the latest version, but I was wondering what would actually go wrong with it.
I mean dont you just develope it further from 0.9 which was stable…. so.. it should be fine. i mean what could go wrong with it?
Hey guys,
I just installed bbpress at http://www.halifamous.com/staff for writers of a new blog to discuss ideas for the site. I am able to view the main forum page, and get into the admin section. The problem is that I’m getting a blank page any time I try to click through to the test post or into the ‘Introductions’ forum section I created. I also get a blank page when I try to access my user profile.
I haven’t touched the code. Any idea why this might be happening?
Thanks,
Greg
