Does anybody know if this script is supposed to work with the latest release of bbpress (.? I ran into some problems importing some of the tables.

Thanks, Len

[spencerp]

I’m assuming this path works just as good right?

/root directory/bb-templates/your-theme/

That’s what I am doing at the present time, w/o the latest upgrade though of course.. I’ll get on updating it here soon.. just wanted to wait until ALL the dang commits were really over lmao..

Upgraded to the lastest bbPress and find that the display name has stopped working… was using the display-name plugin… for this

[Trent Adams]

I didn’t know you could drop the folder into my-templates as well. Interesting…that might be a better solution! Thanks for the 411. Does it need to be a complete folder then or just changed files? I didn’t even bother testing that out! ?

Most likely today. The release on this support forum is the final real ‘test’ before it becomes a final release. I would imagine after a few tweaks, the STICKY will appear with the release.

I’m going gently nuts. I have two forums: http://www.allaluminumtour.com/forum and http://www.ponohouse.com/ponoforum. The second one (ponohouse) is a new installation of the latest software version. the first one is an older installation–it’s working fine. The installation went fine, I attempted to use the integration features but got an error message (sorry, don’t remember what it was) so I cleaned out the integration data in the config file, deleted the tables in the database, and reinstalled.

Everything seemed to work fine–I can register as a user, but when I click “see my account” I get a 404 error and when I click on a forum topic I also get file not found.

I notice that the directory the browser is trying to access is: http://www.ponohouse.com/ponoforum/profile/2 whereas in the allaluminumtour forum it’s http://www.allaluminumtour.com/forum/profile.php?id=1

Any ideas?

I changed this up a little bit and made it work for the up and coming 0.8 theme. It would be nice to have someone test it again on 0.75 as I don’t have an install anymore, but I think my directions should work. Download is in the first post of this thread or check out the entry on my blog or over at the complete template and plugin blog, Pro Forum

*EDIT*

Null I am using the original logo again.

If it is a real issue, just put a quick test install in a different folder structure. Test it up there and then you can move it to the real site.

[spencerp]

God, I hope so.. I’m getting tired of constantly adding the Forum Categories enhancement to the latest SVN trunk files, and then uploading them again lmao..

I think I’ll just wait now, until .80 is full-blown released, and you’re done doing .80alpha SVN commits hahaha. /Me thinks: dang! It’s planned to go into 1.0 anyway, so.. I guess I’ll have to worry about that transition or whatever then too. Oh well..

Just until it gets picked up in the plugin directory, here is Visual Support Forums for bbPress.

This is an extension to the Support Forums plugin and requires it to work, it also needs to be loaded after that plugin, thus the slightly kludgy name.

The plugin will add cute little dots in front of your topics to indicate their support status, it will also remove the “[closed]” prefix and replace it with a nice little lock icon.

No configuration is necessary, just drop the files in your plugin directory.

I am not sure how this will work on the localhost as that is not really a domain to define a cookie domain. Can’t be sure without testing it.

Trent

[mrpapasworld]

Trent, agreed… When I started, it mostly mind block… once you open up, it gets pretty easy…

a test integration: http://test.klasen.us

ignore all the silly posts and comments… testing a new wp theme and a whole bunch of other stuff for things I am working on…

[flaerpen]

okey, I tried that but I cant get it work. I just copied the code you wrote and changed the domain. For the moment I’m testing my forum in my localhost. This is the code I use:

$bb->usercookie = 'wordpressuser';

$bb->passcookie = 'wordpresspass';

$bb->cookiedomain = 'localhost';

$bb->cookiepath = '/';

I can add that I’m a totally newbie to cookies!

I FINALLY fixed it!! YESSSSSSSSSSSSS

What did I do? Well simply replace bb_get_location output with: front-page.

It even doesn’t chance the page id

Perhaps it’s a “dirty” fix, but it works:

function get_bb_menu() {

global $bbdb;

$pemal = get_bb_location();

$pemal = str_replace('topic-page', 'front-page', $pemal);

$pemal = str_replace('profile-page', 'front-page', $pemal);

-normal code goes here-

Going to do some more testing and then it’s ready for release!

Thanks guys! I copied the BBP tables over to my WP db, and everything worked out fine — with the added bonus that this plugin now works perfectly. Maybe I missed it, but I think the BBP install instructions should make a point of recommending that BBP be installed in the WP database.

[Trent Adams]

It is pretty simple to just copy the bbPress tables into the WordPress database. If you use a mySQL export script, it will actually create the tables syntax and install it perferctly! It is way easier on many integration plugins (not just this one) when they are in the same database!

Trent

[baptiste]

ccmve,

It is – and it will make your life a lot easier. Makes your config simpler too.

[chrishajer]

Is anyone else having a similar problem? Or, alternatively, does anyone in the know have an idea of how I can troubleshoot this? It’s painful to make a post with the way things are now.

Still using .73 and using the following plugins:

allow-images.php

bb-limit-latest-discussion.php

bb-memberlist.php

bbpress_sitemap.php

notification.php

onlinelist.php

Thanks.

[altmejd]

I did that too, then I started to worry that perhaps the .po file i downloaded wasn’t the latest one. It was linked to from a rather old post..

For now i’ll just stick to the one i downloaded.

How much have you translated?

[spencerp]

Just to update everyone on this.. I’ve upgraded the forums to the very Latest SVN files for .80alpha, and the latest file changes for the Forum Categories enhancement by SamBauers..

http://spencerp.net/forums/

I plan to tweak some more things though, and also release the “Gathering” theme for bbPress then. It’s still on my To-Do list, and it will get done then folks!

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into this and take out the cleaner div and look at the page in IE again. If it’s still not there, then it’s not the div. I’ll post my findings here as soon as I have tested this.

Thx

ps. I have no idea if there are any toolbars like FF, sorry.

Same problem in IE 7, no underline there either. It only effects IE as far as I know…

Got it running on my testsite:

Problem: With forum restriction, I use the following code to filter topics with the default views:

function forum_restriction_list_of_allowed_forums($user) {

global $forum_restriction_allowed_in_forum,$bb_current_user;

foreach ($forum_restriction_allowed_in_forum as $forum_number => $forum_memberlist){

if (ereg(get_user_name($user),$forum_memberlist) || $forum_memberlist ==''){

$list_of_allowed_forums .= "'".$forum_number."',";

}

}

$list_of_allowed_forums = rtrim($list_of_allowed_forums,",");

return $list_of_allowed_forums;

}

// FILTER TOPICS

function forum_restriction_get_latest_topics_where( $where ) {

if (bb_is_user_logged_in()) {

global $bb_current_user;

$list_of_allowed_forums = forum_restriction_list_of_allowed_forums($bb_current_user->ID);

$where .= " AND forum_id IN ($list_of_allowed_forums) ";

echo "where is set to: $where";

return $where;

} else {

return $where;

}

}

add_filter ( 'get_latest_topics_where', 'forum_restriction_get_latest_topics_where' );

The problem is this doesn’t work with bb_custom_views used by since-last-visit.php. It seems the plugin changes the $where AFTER forum-restriction has already tried to filter the $where.

How do I get forum_restriction_get_latest_topic_where to add ” AND forum_id IN ($list_of_allowed_forums) ” to $where AFTER since-last-post sets $where?

Kapish?

Is it true that the ‘standard’ thing to do is install WP and BBP in the same database? If so, I’m going to take bbolman’s recommendation and copy my BBP tables into my WP database. Is it safe to copy these directly, or are the some alterations that need to be made first?

[mitoskalandiel]

lo all, I have the same problem as Staffan, when I use this fine plugin, I get no name name displayed, I have just installed the 0.75 of BBPress, and I do not have any option in my profile to enter a nicename at all, hence why the assigned database entry (‘user_nicename’) doesn’t hold a Nicename 😮

Well I could enter a Nicename via phpMyAdmin, but that’s surely not the way to work that out, because tbh I am way too lazy, to do that for every future user registering with the forum

==edit==

Nevermind my post above, just sorted it out, it works, IF you install BBP with the database tables from WP in the config.php, but NOT IF you install BBP without these information

So the nicename from the WP user-table is being used, also means, users have to enter their WP profile to change that, as this is NOT possible via BBP profile

Thx anyways

==end edit==

Anyhow, a pretty nice plugin, keep up the good work Atsutane
