I turn off Akismet and just use Human Test to prevent bots from registering: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/human-test/
You just never know when a user will improperly get “bozo-ed” and you might miss their messages entirely. In fact i turn off the bozo feature too, it’s never quite worked right.
Hello,
how to control the number of topic in “latest discussions” in front-page.php?
bye
I can not figure out where i went wrong.. I’m using the latest 1.0 alpha release at 2.6. Everything apperas to work as expected (users exist in both systems, etc). However, the auto login is not working. I believe i followed the instructions to the “T”. Heres the stored cookie for both systems.
WordPress cookie after login:

**edit**
I am using the latest WordPressMU with the Alpha release of bbPress.
**end-edit**
I am actually receiving this same error. I tried installing initially and completed the install until the final step where I needed to create a forum. I tried to make a Hello World forum and I got an error saying that the installation failed. I couldn’t go back a step or anything .
I just gave up on that install since it was fairly quick anyways, and removed the bbpress directory. I then re-downloaded the install file, unzipped it into my root directory and re-attempted the install. Now, whenever I try and re-install by going to the url that contains the bbpress install http://danvollans.com/bbpress I get a redirection error after the first step where I input my database information. I have since not been able to get past this step. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, especially since now I believe I’m not the first to receive this type of error.
Thank you very much!
When my forum is viewed in Firefox, the long email addresses of users who post are encroaching on their post content. Not a big issue, but a bit untidy and annoying. See: http://ashb.proofreadercentral.com/bbpress/topic.php?id=8
(user name: tester / password: testing123)
Which CSS in which file would I modify to make the page width of the forum a bit wider and increase the distance between poster email details and their adjacent post content, please?
Ok all that’s not working now is posting. The box shows and you can enter everything, but clicking submit just sends you back to the index with no changes. Any help?
I just tested removing the line “require(‘/var/www/html/wp-blog-header.php’);” in config, and it works again, so that fix you gave works, this is another issue caused by integration.
The diff between functions.core.php from the working install (without errors – latest-alpha.zip) and functions.core.php from the trunk directory (in this install I see the error message) .
A diff recursive from the root directory of both installs gave me a lot of output so I focused only in this file. I made a backup of the “problematic” file and overwrote it with the working (from the latest) so I got no more erros.
I made this just to test, I know we should not mix files from different verionos
$ diff ./bb-tag/bb-includes/backpress/functions.core.php ./bb-trunk/bb-includes/backpress/functions.core.php
494a495,507
>
> function backpress_convert_object( &$object, $output ) {
> if ( is_array( $object ) ) {
> foreach ( array_keys( $object ) as $key )

@chrishajer: I didn’t the diff cause I’m starting over with the forum – no data to care. So after the error comes I just removed all files and elimI searched and inated all tables from database. I should make some tests and take the diff.
@balgo: Yes, is a php error, but is called from a script in functions.core.php. There’s no results relevant to actual versions of bbpress neither functions.core file.
@zappoman: What let me really confused, please correct me if I’m wrong, is that I got error installing from “svn co http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress/tags/1.0-alpha-1/” but had no errors with a installations from “bbPress 1.0 Alpha (latest-alpha.zip)” in the download page. Since is tagged, is the same package right?
Thanks all your attention guys.
Guys,
Something really strange in this problem, only happens when I do a SVN install.
Errors to:
svn co http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress/tags/1.0-alpha-1/ .
svn co http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress/trunk/ .
But if I download (wget) latest.zip or latest-alpha.zip extract and install it will work without the mentioned error. omg –confused–
Ok, just to let you know.
I tried a latest stable version (0.9.0.2) install and got no errors… only occurs with the alpha release.
Help plz.
Let me add that I’m doing all my testing/installing locally using Xampp. https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/928 made me think that maybe I’m having the plugin issue because of this problem? Just a shot in the dark perhaps? I think I’ll try uploading the latest trunk to my website (run on a unix server) tonight and see if it’s different in that environment.
Hi guys,
I want to start a forum from scratch and was going to install phpBB but after too much reading I decided that is best to me (and to the forum) use the bbPress.
I installed both stable and trunk versions on my local machine and was playing around for a couple hours. bbPress is really what I want, but I’m a little bit undecided about what version upload to my host.
I know 1.0 final release is coming soon but have too many tickets to close and I don’t want to wait.
In your opinion guys, for who wants to start over theses days… should I install 1.0 Alpha or latest stable version to put on production.
Thank you so much.

I’ve tried doing four clean installs of rev1651 and in none of them have I been able to properly activate plugins. I’ve tried to enable everything from Akismet to mini-track to a simple plugin I made to allow more html tags. All the plugins I’m trying are the latest up to date and work on my rev1646 installation.
i have latest WP and latest bbPress. Looks like integration results in every bb registrant being automatically given ADMIN login role in WP. Role mapping doesn’t seem to make a difference. Is there really no solution to this other than recommended downgrading?
I did edit my bb-config.php before installation, but I’m not sure if the installer needs that any more (it might be smart enough to write the file these days). There’s nothing in there that you should have edited that would cause this problem anyway (other than the BB_PATH which is after the *Stop Editing* line, near the bottom.)
Looks like you installed the latest 0.9.0.2 version. That’s good.
It looks like not all the files are present though. Do you have a bb-includes directory with a wp-functions.php file in it? I do and I did not get that error.
I would just verify that all the files were uploaded properly. First check for the existence of a bb-includes directory with a wp-functions.php file in it. The error is saying that file is not there.
I have read all comments to that plugin again and find a fix for this problem. It works fine now.
But I will test _ck_’s plugin anyway.
Thanks for the help
it didn’t work, so i’m still looking for.
ok, this plugin doesnt work with bbpress 0.9.0.2
if somebody know how to show the WP recent posts on BBPress please let me know.
thanks

has anyone seen a complete solution for this issue? many hosts do not allow php mail() function because it doesn’t support smtp authentication
i’ve seen several posts about swiftmailer, phpmailer alternatives, but none offer a step by step instructions?
interested in modifying files only from the latest verion bbpress-0.9.0.2.zip
also, are any of these solutions integrated with wordpress? or when you use them you lose the bbpress user = wp user integration?
any kind of complete solution would be appreciated by many
Hello,
I’m testing bbpress since 2 months and today I recognized the problem, that the forum list on frontpage differs from logged in view to logged out view.
I have only one forum for moderators, all other forums are open to all, but on the list in logged out view are 3 forums and in logged in view there are all 5 (6) forums.
If I change the order of the forums, then the list on front page behaves strange and shows less forums than before.
I have 2 screenshots:
http://forum.max-fun.de/temp/forum1.jpg – logged in
http://forum.max-fun.de/temp/forum2.jpg – logged out
I just installed r1637 as a test. Installation went well. I can’t believe they added the search by default!
I will test a little more and post issues to trac.
There are radical internal changes in 1.0 with the switch to the BackPress core, not to mention the cookie changes and some major db function changes which consolidated all the meta tables into bb_meta. The code is untested against most plugins. It’s a much bigger change IMHO from 0.9 to 1.0 vs the older 0.8.3 to 0.9.0 change.
However I don’t think it will take much to get it the final stamp of approval, maybe even late this month or early next, depending how many more features Sam wants to put into it. There’s still a whole bunch of open tickets:
https://trac.bbpress.org/report/3
I just don’t want it to be rushed to an official release like 0.9 was, which was followed shortly by 0.9.0.1 and 0.9.0.2 and then 0.9.0.2 sp1 – that’s embarrassing and makes bbPress look amateur.
Let’s get it right this time – report those bugs at http://trac.bbpress.org
Very nice integration of the theme.
I noticed you are using WordPress 2.6. If someone logs in to WordPress or bbPress, are they logged in on the other (either bbPress or WordPress)? That is the level of integration most people are looking for, in addition to theme integration, and the latest word was that integration with WordPress 2.6 does not work. How did you do it?
