I’ve made a plugin that lets you set your own default gravatar.

You can also choose to use Identicons, Wavatar or monsterID as the default gravatar.

You set the size and the rating you want.

This plugin overrides the built in Gravatar function, but you still have to choose to show the avatars in the standard options page, but all other gravatar options from that page is ignored.

I’ve tested it on bbPress 0.9.0.2 and 1.0-dev (from trunk), but it should work on all 0.9.x versions.

You can download the plugin from here.

I’ve also submitted it to the plugins list here on bbpress.org, and will (hopefully) show up there to

Here’s a checklist:

1. You are running latest versions of WordPress (2.5.1) and bbPress (0.9.0.2)
2. You have matched SECRET_KEY in wp-config.php with BB_SECRET_KEY in bb-config.php
3. You have matched WordPress “secret” database option with bbPress “secret” database setting
4. You have setup compatible cookie domains and paths in config files (see instructions in bbPress admin)
5. You are successfully sharing user tables from WordPress with bbPress

kernow: Its better we did. As BBpress and WordPress both have ability to auto generate config file we get the benefit of getting the latest modifications.

This isn’t exactly what you’re looking for, but it lets you put a list of your bbpress topics in a sidebar on your WordPress site:

I’m using the latest versions of bbpress and WordPress. I intalled bbpress to be integrated with WP. however, when I click over from the WordPress site to the bbpress site I am not already logged in. Is there a list to troubleshoot to see why this happening? I have done as much as I can do so far (eg checking secret words etc).

More irritatingly I find that I’ve been logged out of the WP site when I go back.

Thx.

Hi folks, there seem to be many people out there having similar issues, but I’ve spent all evening looking through for a solution and still no luck.

I’m trying to do a full integration of bbPress 0.219 and WordPress 2.51, full integration meaning that bbPress should load WordPress functions and vice versa.

WordPress appears to be playing very nicely and loading bbPress template tags with no problems at all. I’ve done this using

//BBPress Integration

if ( !defined('BBDB_NAME') )

require_once(ABSPATH.'forum/bb-load.php');

at the very end of my wp-config.php file, as per the tutorial at

http://www.adityanaik.com/integratepress-part-i/ . As I say, no problem so far.

It’s when I try to load WP functions into bbPress that I run into trouble. When I’ve attempted either of the following two mods to bb-config.php, it has disabled user login, as well as blocking me from /bb-admin (which re-directs straight back to home). The two mods to bb-config.php I have tried are:

// WordPress Integration //

define('WP_BB', true);

if ( !defined('DB_NAME') ) {

require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-config.php');

}

// **Wordpress Variables ** //

$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_'; // your wordpress db prefix is

$bb->wp_home = 'http://localhost/bloomag';

$bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://localhost/bloomag';

or simply

require_once( 'C:testingserverwwwbloomagwp-blog-header.php');

With both these mods, the bbPress page loads up with no problems but, as I say, both /bb-admin and any attempt to log-in give no response and just redirect to the hompage.

Has anyone got any suggestions for what might be going wrong and the correct method to call WP functions into bbPress?

Thanks a lot,

I’ve just tested logins. I cannot log into my wordpress installation with my old password but i logged in successfully into the forums.

urgent help needed

I also have a user whose posts are getting caught by akismet because she posted too many links. I have installed _ck_’s human test plaugin (thanks!) and plan to disable akismet.

But is this user now listed as a spammer for akismet in general? That is, will her comments be blocked at other akismet-enabled sites?

If so, how do I restore her “good name”?

What you are asking for is very easy.

$forums = get_forums(); gets you all the forums,

$topics = get_latest_topics( $forum_id); will get you the topics list for any forum id. So if you looped through the forums like on the front page, just fetch the $topics after each forum in the loop.

The formatting and page layout is the “hard” part.

[howtogeek]

I assume this is a non-WP page as well?

You can check the bbpress session cookie and then use that to check the user against the database. You’d have to use the same logic that WP or BB uses (the latest bbpress changes this logic). You’ll also need to make sure that the cookie domain is set correctly.

I’ve actually had to do this recently myself… it’s pretty simple and works well.

I’m using WPMU 1.3.1 and the latest version of bbPress. There is no SECRET_KEY in the config file for WPMU and I don’t think WPMU 1.3.1 uses the latest WP cookie encryption of WP2.5. I’ve tried mouldy cookies plugin and I can’t get it to work. I’ve got the usernames integrated with the blog, but I can’t pass login credentials (cookies) between WPMU and bbPress.

Any suggestions?

[melvitax]

ok, i downloaded the latest trunk and i was able to get it working although it threw this error out:

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /home/cristian/public_html/foros/bb-admin/upgrade-functions.php on line 537

any thoughts?

Hi there!

Why don’t use plugin authors gettext localization as bbPress itself does?!

I start testing plugins for the german community at bbpress.de and find out that absolutely NO plugin could be used without direct translation. That’s a pitty and I really wonder about this situation

bbPress 0.9 renamed the critical system email address that several plugins rely on (“admin_email” became “from_email”)

Unfortunately many plugin authors aren’t aware of this and the old setting is completely deleted from the database, which makes any older plugin that looks for “admin_email” fail and get a blank address and don’t anticipate/test for a blank. So they blindly insert the blank address into emails which causes the emailer to either fail or bounce the message.

A few of my plugins were affected, I just found another tonight, and there are several third-party ones still unpatched.

You can work around this problem by putting this into your bb-config.php (anywhere on a new line)

$bb->admin_email = 'email@your-forum.com';

where email@your-forum.com is the same email address you use inside bbPress on bb-admin/options-general.php

This won’t hurt anything, causes no extra load of any kind and simply allows older plugins to work without additional edits until the authors get a chance to upgrade them.

(Just remember you “hard coded” this address if you ever change the main one for any reason. You can delete it after 1.0 is out and all plugins have upgraded. In fact the old email address will become unused after all the plugin upgrade anyway so this can’t hurt anything in practice.)

[citizenkeith]

That worked! Thanks _ck_!!

My educated guess would be because fel64’s plugin is grabbing the link within the title, so the plugin that alters the page count is not getting unhooked yet.

Try adding on a new line after global $topic; in fel64’s plugin:

remove_action( 'bb_get_option_page_topics', 'bb_custom_topic_limit', 200);

It’s occurred to me there might be a bug in my plugin where I don’t have that matching ,200 on the end of the same remove_action line. If I remember correctly, actions have to be unhooked with matching priority numbers to how they were added. So maybe try adding the ,200 also.

Remember that bbPress’s “topics per page” setting must be set to the actual number of posts you want listed on a topic page.

[chrishajer]

Trunk means the error has been fixed in the code repository but it hasn’t been packaged into a new release yet.

You can get the latest trunk code here:

https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset/1428/branches/0.9?old_path=%2F&format=zip

I have no idea if there are any problems with that release though. You only need one tiny fix for this problem.

Also, it seems like you have a lot of interesting things going on with your installation based on the number of threads posted here. I suspect there is more going on than just a couple tiny, unrelated problems. If you can afford to do it without losing any work, you might want to try a fresh installation and start from scratch.

I’m trying to make a additional view in the plugin “my-views”, where I show “new post since last logout”. Inorder to do this I have added a new column to the online tabel from plugin “simpel onlinelist” inwhich I put the time when the user logoff.

I use the time from onlinelist :

$now = bb_current_time(‘mysql’);

but it look as if the time is 10 min to late!

So if I logoff and then logon again I may get some post which are to old.

In order to compare I made a small test where I made a new post and the logged out. Time on the post say 2008-04-22 11:44:07 and on the logout 2008-04-22 11:34:49.

Can anyone tell me how the time on the posts are made ?

or how the bb_current_time() works ?

[fokjulle]

I’ve just created a new dummy member, and tested this, and the above happens.

1. When clicking “add new” from the index page, creates a new post page.

2. It doesn’t allow a choice for which forum it should go into.

3. After submitting, it says that the topic has been closed.

However, creating a thread from within a forum topic doesn’t do the above.

How can I fix this?

[lastmovement]

I have everything installed, Fixed the 404 errors.

Now I cant get wp and bb talking. In the integration section it already is done but. My plug ins bbpress post, BBpress Latest Discussions arent working Fatal error every time I activate.

Also the bb video installed correctly but If I click on it from the admin area it takes me to my homepage?

[citizenkeith]

Thanks to Sam, I learned that the Freshness column links to the latest post, so fel64’s Page plugin is no longer necessary.

However, when I activate _ck_’s Front Page Posts plugin, the freshness column links to a page without any posts.

_ck_ (or anybody who wants to troubleshoot) can contact me for a login and password for my forum. kamera [at] gmail will do the trick.

[refueled]

Hey.

I would appreciate it if I could get a few of you to review my latest bbPress theme before I release it: Demo

Let me know if you have any suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

Just tested it, and it works.

[fokjulle]

I have the latest MySQL, or, my host company, at least, does. They’re very good that way. I’ve tried the above fixes, and nothing works. I’ve adjusted nothing in my config file.

Also, I’m not Swedish, so I’m not sure why anything needs to be Swedish…
