this file here i think ists the 0.8.3.1

[janellers]

I do some more testing:

if i use the “bb_is_user_logged_in() )” Function on the entry site it returns false every time. but if I go to the register.php wich uses the same function for displaying the content it shows: “You’re already logged in, why do you need to register?”

If I now go back to the front page by clicking a link on the register page, bbPress recognize that I’am logged in. Due this process I never used the “Log in” Button of the Forum. I was justed logged in by my WP Site.

Another test:

If I login thru my bbPress site all works fine. But if i go back to my WP Site and return to the Forum I have to log in again…

I set my forum to only show the 10 latest topics on the front page, but I would like to have a next/prev link at the bottom so people can view older topics as well. How do I go about doing that?

[Göran]

My name is Göran but when I test bbPress and use my name as username I am called Gran and when I try to use Göran to get around the problem I get Goumlran as my name. How can I solve this? I want users to be able to use their real names including all Swedish letters.

Aha! That error string comes from a much older version of the plugin — please can you try installing the latest version and see if you still have errors?

Latest Version: 0.8.3

the latest i downloaded it yesterday

I’ve just encountered this with 0.8.3.1. As the mail server administrator I was getting delivery failure notifications which reported that the receiving SMTP host had rejected the email with:

<xxxxx@aol.com>: host mailin-04.mx.aol.com[64.12.138.57] said: 501 SYNTAX

ERROR IN PARAMETERS OR ARGUMENTS (in reply to MAIL FROM command)

I increased logging on Postfix and tested it and found:

mailin-04.mx.aol.com[64.12.138.57]: MAIL FROM:<yyyyyyyy@localhost>

mailin-04.mx.aol.com[64.12.138.57]: 501 SYNTAX ERROR IN PARAMETERS OR ARGUMENTS

Where ‘yyyyyyyy’ is the mail server’s local user account for the domain doing the sending.

It looks as if the AOL server is rejecting the @localhost part of the MAIL FROM field. I’ve looked in the bbPress config.php and in the administration options of the dashboard but can’t see why bbPress is using localhost.

Currently I can get around the problem by making a short post:

Like just saying “test”

Then editing that post

[Onion]

Still new to bbpress. Sometimes any text post I make will not show. It will update the thread, and increase the post count, but the post does not show.

I don’t have spam filter on. Post doesn’t show up in admin control panel.

Happens sometimes when I copy and paste into the post. (even if its just plain text)

Does it from the admin account and another test account.

When I come back later, and it works fine.

Any, ideas?

In the interest of sharing what I’ve learned so far, let me describe what I want to do, and what I’ve accomplished so far.

1) I want to have a stand alone instance of bbPress running on my site that shows ALL the forums.

2) I want to embed a single forum into a wordpress blog (actually a wordpressmu blog– but there’s nothing mu specific about my work so far)

3) I want the forums to share the same DB, so if a topic is updated inside of my blog, I also see it updated in the standalone Forum.

4) I want to be able to essentially allow the bbPress template functions to work inside of a wp page or post… ideally I’d like to implement a simple function like “embedd_bbpress_forum()” on a page template and have it display a fully functioning bbPress instance in the page.

5) I want to use the chrome/theme from wordpress for the header, sidebar, footer, etc… but I also want to support the basic bbpress template structure as well.

So far I have this working about 90%…

What I’ve done is build a WP-plugin, that “includes” bbpress/bb-load.php. And implements a couple functions for embedding the bbpress instance in a page or post or where ever you call the embed functions.

Things that are working:

* forum home page

* topic pages

* new topic

* comments

* profile pages

* favorites

Things that aren’t working yet:

* ajax — none of the ajax stuff is working properly yet…

* some pages that use wp_redirect – because of how I’m embedding in wordpress, the headers are already sent before I have a chance to do the redirect, so… some functions that rely on this are reporting errors.

How I did this so far:

* declare GOBALS!!! – This is the biggest “sneaky trick” – basically, most of bbPress is implemented outside of a function or class context, and so the “local” variables on the bbPress pages are actually global in context. Since I’m wrapping these into a wp-pluing, I need to declare them as explicitly global. If I get all the globals right, then bbPress just works.

* turn off mod_rewrite support in bbPress… since I want my pages to get handled by WordPress, the URL needs to end at the same location of the wordpress page, this means that my forum page has a url something like:

http://mydomain.com/blog/forumpage/?command=topic.php&id=1

Notice I introduced the concept of the “command” parameter, that my plugin then uses as a dispatcher to “load” (include) the right bbPress file. MOSTLY bbPress will do the rest of it’s work from the URL params.

* Lots of filters – I’ve implemented several filters for URL remapping so that bbPress will override the standard link formation to point to my new embedded page urls

* A COUPLE HACKS – the only hard part I’ve had to hack so far relates to bbPress’s get_bb_location() function. This function appears to be a bit of bbPresses standard “dispatcher” which tells the rest of bbPress what type of page it’s supposed to be rendering. The only problem with this approach is that in my instance of the code base it does all this logic based on PHP_SELF, SCRIPT_FILENAME, or SCRIPT_NAME… which will be pointing to my wordpress files. I made a small change to add a new filter that allows me to pull out my command param and do the bb_location determination from that.

Has anyone else attempted this? Have they gotten further? Is there an easier way?

Mostly this isn’t a lot of code, it’s just discovering how to make it work and testing that everything works as planned.

Well you’re asking two different things but the answer to both is yes with some code changes to your templates.

You can get the last poster for any topic in the list via this:

<?php echo '<a href="'.get_topic_last_post_link().'">'.get_topic_last_poster().'</a>'; ?>

but there is also a plugin that I believe will change the last poster’s name into a link too. So either way.

You might be able to paginate the lastest discussions by putting this at the bottom of latest discussions outside the loop:

<?php forum_pages(); ?>

However it’s a 50/50 chance it won’t work.

Or you can use the “My Views” plugin which will give you a paginated Latest Discussion view that you can link to.

example:

http://bbshowcase.org/forums/view/latest-discussions

plugin:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/my-views/

I don’t believe there is a CAPTCHA plugin yet, but there is a “Human Test” plugin:

[janellers]

yep, same problem here:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/firefox-wp-cookies-are-not-acceptet

I think i found the problem: I’am logged in but bbPress just don’t show it… but i haven’t tested it enough so wait a little bit and probably I can say more…

[janellers]

Hi Trent,

thanks for your reply. I’am using this plugin:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/private-forums/

The hide-option is checked, and tested in both themes. The unregistered user can only Enter the Forums flagged “open for all” but that is useless when they cant see them

Jan

[Trent Adams]

JanEllers are you using the plugin from so10 from the plugin browser? Do you have the following checked?

Hide Private Forums and Topics

I have this working fine for me. Does it work with the main theme (for testing)?

Trent

Is it possible to use pagination on the Latest Discussions on the front page?

I want users to be able to go to the last page of a long thread.

[janellers]

No one here who can help me? Is there a alternative to this plugin?

Edit: I just tested with the standart theme, and found out that the user can enter the forum and see the topics but he cant see the forums in the Forums table on the starting page

[hitec7]

I installed your plugin _ck_ but i when i activated it din’t auto inserted the math field in my registration page. Strange so i did it my self by inserting in my register.php / bbpress theme file the function:

<?php human_registration_test(); ?>

and then it worked ok.

I am using the Misty Morning template and changed the overflow to auto from hidden on the container properties. This was to accommodate the Private Message plugin which was too wide for the template.

Now in IE there is a scroll bar whether it is needed or not and yet in doesn’t scroll on long threads. The posts are pushed over to the left.

Is there a better fix to accomodate the PM plugin? or to make IE scroll properly?

[Trent Adams]

That is correct. Take the output of that file and put that in your /stereopoly.de/forum/ directory. Multiviews works with most servers I have played with, but had to use the rewrite-rules.php for my latest server.

Just installed/activated your “Human Test” plug-in. I am using bbPress version 0.8.3.1. Everything works fine. No issues.

Thank you.

By the way, I heard of WordPress for the first time on Sunday, found it a few minutes later, installed it a few minutes after that and input two years of articles I had written that same day. I installed a few plug-ins the next day and then found bbPress. Installed that the same day (Monday). It was working fine and found a matching template for both WordPress and bbPress the next day (Wednesday). With very little tweaking (mostly my errors) and no visits to the WordPress or bbPress forums for help, I am up and running with a very presentable, professional looking, and fully functional blog/user forum. Absolutely incredible!!! I am notifying my subscribers later this morning about their new resource via email. Not bad for four days of work.

Thank you good folks behind WordPress and bbPress!
