    @kriskl:

    I like where are going. Perhaps you are on to something. Building off your initial idea, what about some sort of 2010 plugin development contest?

    As you noted, several people here chipped into _ck_ and got their money returned. I’m sure those same people might be open to something like this.

    Heck, if we had some ‘bbPress plugin contest’ I’ll chip in something.

    Anyone else like have any thoughts on this? Would anyone else be willing to donate toward a bbPress plugin development contest?

    If we can get 10 folks to match one another at $25 or $50 each we can get a small but sizable initial pot built.

    The Sandbox development contest back in 2007 initially had $500 total to distribute between 1st, 2nd and 3rd place (http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2007/05/31/announcing-the-sandbox-designs-competition/) After some sponsorships the total in competition prizes rose to $1950. (http://sndbx.org/details/)

    Look, the top prize is most likely not going to be a zillion bucks, but it its not a bad idea to stick a steroid shot in the plugin development arm and get some more people fired up (or fired up once again) about bbPress development.

    Heck, even if someone took an existing plugin that didn’t work with bbPress 1.02 and updated it, this would be an improvement.

    Perhaps this plugin contest could be scheduled/built around around the revamping/relaunching of the bbPress.org site and the introduction of the new bbPress codex section.

    Thoughts? Anyone else willing to match a small donation toward such a contest? Haha, if people like this idea, the bbPress Theme contest comes next ;)

    Kevin, before I changed from SMF to bbpress I checked the extensions. I use the following plugins:

    Activated:

    allow images

    image rezizer

    bbvideo

    Bavatars

    BBcode Buttons Toolbar

    BBcode Lite

    bbPM

    bbpress signatures

    bbpress smilies

    bbpress user directory

    bozo users

    members online

    Not activated:

    Askimet (do not like it)

    Remove topic forum (unfortunately there is no updated version, it would be a cool thing for users who like SEO-friendly pretty urls)

    open-ID (no facebook login and does cause problems with the current bbpress version; wait until its updated)

    bbpress polls (causes some problems with my template)

    bb topic views (did not find out how to change the language; does not work with poedit and in the files I did not fiend the word “views” so I cannot translate it in german)

    ignore user (needs to be updated for the current bbpress version)

    All this plugins are nice but with all this bbpress is ways apart from SMF. Thats why former members complaint about the change from SMF to bbpress. SMF allowed to write drafts before posting and other things not mentioned yet…

    Regarding the spam problem: SMF and wordpress did solve that problem (wordpress has a lot of good spam protection plugins as well..no need for askimet). I have a pr 5 page and no problems with spam. Register option 3 usually is secure enough. Email-address needs to be proved and there is a captcha-code. If this is not enough you can use register option 4 (member approval) With member approval the admin has to activate new members. With this spam can be avoided. Further SMF had a sophisticated bozo-user ban protection. You could ban by member-name, ban by IP-Number, ban by email address etc.

    Regarding the design of the new forum:

    The new forum design is better than the design of the old forum. I am not a designer, therefore I don’t think like a designer. I am somebody who likes to have the overview. The new theme is better to keep the overview. On the top you have the latest posts. Beneath you have the different categories and subcategories. This structure is easy to understand. Further the new design allows me to place more ads. Also I work with a drop down menu. Did you use it? It helps too to keep the overview.

    4. log into your bbPress dashboard. Click on options. Look for bbPress address (URL) and change the address. Click save page. You WILL get an error. Leave the page open. Sign into your FTP and rename the folder to forum. Go back to the page and click refresh. If you did it right it will ask you to login again.

    Your integration settings need to be updated.

    If you want to get bbpress out and working to the masses then put a lot of the plugins into the core where they would be better updated and maintained. Right now if you want to use plugins you need to hire a developer to implement and figure out how to work the plugin. The plugins are not updated and you need to figure out how to make the plugin work through the forum comment section.

    Critical plugins that should be in the core would be something like a bbcode lite, bbbuttons, terms of service, quote function, allow images, allow video, signature, login with facebook. Private messaging perhaps. Security features like capatcha and prevent service provider addresses would also be good as part of the core. More unique features like BB Press Latest Discussions, Adsense, Flickr etc could be provided by way of plugins.

    Hi Chris,

    Its even simpler.

    Forum

    – Sub Forum

    no matter how often or how new a topic/post is in “Sub Forum” (or any sub forum), BBpress always considers that the latest post in Forum to be exactly that, the latest topic in Forum.

    e.g.

    UK – (topic: how to use this forum 5 months ago)

    – Scotland (topic: Rules of the Scotland section – 4 months ago)

    – – Edinburgh (topic: New post – 1 day ago)

    Whenever querying UK as a Forum, and especially on the homepage where it lists forums, it never ever shows that the latest topic to be from its sub forums. Now if you’re like me and have a few parent/child relationships in your forums and keep a sticky closed at the upper most parent, tht means on the home page it will always show that sticky closed and not updated since (X months ago).

    If i can give a geeky example from today: http://fellowshipoftheding.org/forums/

    According to the homepage the bototm forum “Wrath of the Lich King”‘s latest discussion was 3 months ago, but if you actually click into it, and then into any of the sub forums, you can see thats not true.

    It makes forums appear to be dated and or dead, and people are moe likely to just post a topic anywhere and then make a Moderator move it.

    Thanks for your help,

    Kev

    P.S. I realise that BBpress has a “latest discussions” table, and that great if thats the point of your forum, but not all forums are like that.

    P.P.S. My gut tells me, as it told me when i first reported this issue about a year ago in alpha2, that it appeared to me to a core issue. Parent/Child relationships aren’t exactly that, instead the whole thing feels like a port of _CK_’s old plugin into the core (of which this was a known issue).

    Give it a try, some things don’t need to be updated.

    #32559

    I see options for displaying post freshness and last poster. I need this information for the forums themselves. It’s a nice ability to see when the forum was last updated…

    Looking forward, is there a way I can indicate “Forums that have new posts since you last logged in”?

    Thanks,

    David

    Thanks for posting that. I cannot imagine anyone who wants integration to jump through these hoops to get it to work. If someone can confirm that these steps work, maybe we can get the documentation updated here.

    gerikg – please post what you find. Maybe it’s a simple mistake that everyone is making, or you can show how the integration documentation needs to be updated to make this easier for everyone.

    I know it’s sometimes easier to just go and fix stuff yourself instead of going back and forth in a forum trying to figure out what’s wrong, but I really do hope someone posts a procedure for integrating logins that will work for everyone. alpacino85 did what I think most reasonable people would do: download the most recent version of both software packages and then follow the latest integration instructions (even though they’re out of date), but that doesn’t seem to work. Lots of people have the same exact issue (logging into WordPress logs you our of bbPress or vice versa) so I hope there’s on little “gotcha” or “ah ha” that can be posted to take care of this for most people. Thanks.

    Read the whole IRC chat…

    I would like to just suggest upon some of the major topics:

    1. bbPress.org redesign would get a lot benefit (which is in process), it could/would get more attention to the community, the new theme which Sam was working on was looking more user friendly and gave a Web 2.0 feel – I think it should also include Themes Repo, as bbShowcase is down, the list compiled by ck is no more – I tried to check the cache but couldn’t get it
    2. bbPress should contain major admin-side part. I want to discuss some below:

      • Auto-update feature as in WP (for plugins and bbPress – also themes in future, if a repo is created) – This would help people stay updated
      • Ability to edit Plugins & Themes
      • User & Topics management should be improved, like selecting multiple users and deleting them
      • Some more small things can be added like ability to edit which HTML tags are allowed

    3. Coming to the integration part, I think bbPress has to be a standalone forum, as TalkPress runs on bbPress and similar services by the users can be created in the future (eg. there are many phpBB forum hosts), similar things can be created with bbPress too (live example is TalkPress, but it is paid). The only thing I can think of is a 2 sided plugin (WP part and bb part), which should take care of all the issues like database access, cookies, settings etc. Now the only issue left is of themes, and if it is needed, then the bbPress theme structure must be re-worked upon or revamped (I know, it is a difficult job) to be compatible with WordPress themes.
    4. The sidebar should be only in one file (and dynamic), should support widgets like WP – theme compatibility issue would make it do that.
    5. At the end, when everything’s done, codex should be there. This would encourage people to build bbPress plugins. Stats & compatiblity section (as on wp.org could be added in the near future). An IDE style coding would also help (to create phpdocs).

    These are some of my views, some are very difficult to achieve but once they are done, everything would be like butter and users would always come to this forum with positive replies!

    Also note that the functionality provided by the plugins need *not* be integrated into bbPress core, the plugins can be handled by their own respective authors – and could need more frequent updates than the bbPress core part. The thing I want to say is, if a plugin needs update then the author can flag a new version, but if the same thing (which is not needed by all) was integrated into bbPress and the update would have been critical (update in that part only), then a new version of bbPress had to be flagged, which shouldn’t be the case. Also new features & enhancements to that part (which can be as plugin) cannot be added frequently.

    Note: I want to mention here that the author of this plugin is no more active. He make this plugin but something is wrong with this pluing. he tell us wrong path for plugins files. But I’ve little bit knowledge of php that’s why i correct its path now the path of the plugins files which I’ve mentioned above is totally correct and working fine.

    Now I really need to your help. If someone will not guide me then I’ll leave this software “bbpress” and I’ll move to vBulletin or phpbb after disheart….

    So I’m waiting for positive answers from developers… Thanks … And Love you all

    Automattic is funded and have enough money to hire a lead developer to take charge (same way as wp), what Matt posted really gives me the chill when it comes to bbpress roadmap…

    _ck_ already said three months ago that if things didn’t change by December, she wouldn’t be doing plugins upgrades for 1.0: http://bbshowcase.org/forums/topic/suggestion-to-ck-regarding-donations#post-1641 I can’t understand why Automattic doesn’t send her a $5-10k donation… bbPress would lose so much momentum if she stopped contributing.

    I agree with both of you. I was the one that made that post on bbshowcase suggesting to _ck_ that she accept paypal for donations and/or monetize her site in other ways. But the main sentiment she shared with us is that she feels under-appreciated, which we all can understand because it is TRUE.

    At the end of the day, there is absolutely nobody to blame for all this madness except Matt. He had 2 amazing programmers running the bbpress project for him, for FREE, and instead of showing them some appreciation, let alone paying them for all their hard work (out of his millions of dollars), he decided to be selfish and focus on WP and screw the people who were making bbpress such a huge success.

    He barely gave bbpress any recognition, and still doesn’t. He has just never cared much about it. Christ, look at how shitty the WP.org forums are. They haven’t been updated in years. He just grabs the basic forum code for WP and BuddyPress and hacks it to work smoothly, and that’s it.

    There are only 2 reasons why Sam and _ck_ “left”, “are leaving”, or “were removed” and that is because there have been sour relations for a very long time between WP and bbpress. There are only 2 causes:

    1) they were being taken advantage of

    2) they were being under-appreciated

    Both of these are the fault of Matt, who in his juvenile ways has never given 2 shits about the worker bees that he has been so blessed with and who have made his open source projects take off. It’s the same exact attitude that you see with the a-holes at Facebook and other “startup successes” that were simply at the right place at the right time yet who think of themselves as gods.

    Matt, get your shit together, and show some respect and appreciation for the people around the world who made, and continue to make, you successful. You didn’t create yourself buddy. Grow up and show a little generosity and maturity and manage bbpress with some true class.

    This project will not go away people so stop with the farewells.

    …That’s unless Matt deletes it, of course.

    It has been a while, since the alpha/RC-1 times, that we had a list of working plugins, so I thought to create a list of working plugins with the current version 1.0.2, that we can all add to, in order to help other users. Many plugins are listed as up to v. 9.0, but they do work with the latest release (that should be updated, so it doesn’t look like 1.0.2 has very little options…).

    Here is my list at the moment, planning on testing more.

    1 – Ajaxed Quote

    2 – Allow Images

    3 – BB Anonymous Posting

    4 – bbPress Recent Replies

    5 – bbPress signatures

    6 – bbPress Smilies

    7 – bbSocialize

    8 – bb Topic Views

    9 – BBVideo

    10 – Check For Updates

    11 – Comment Quicktags for bbPress

    12 – Human Test for bbPress

    13 – Instant Password

    14 – Leaderboard

    15 – Live Comment Preview

    16 – Members Online

    17 – New User Notification Email

    18 – no duplicate email addresses

    19 – OpenID for bbPress

    20 – Post Edit Look Behind

    21 – Post Meta for bbPress

    22 – Post Notification

    23 – Reputation (Karma) for bbPress

    24 – Subscribe to Topic

    25 – Unread Posts

    26 – WordPress Latest Post

    In reply to: Where are the themes

    I guess it depends on the complexity of the WP theme, but when I matched the looks of the forums, with some trial and error, it wasn’t too complicated. In short, it was a matter of matching header, footer, and use the “hottags” section as the sidebar. If I can backtrack my steps, I will post about it, in case it may help other people, while we are waiting for the official docs.

    This WordPress plugin by Sam Bauers also looked very interesting, but I think it’s not working with the latest version of WP, after 2.6.2. It would be nice if the plugin could be updated.

    it is sad news indeed :(

    few months ago, I have paid some developers to convert the site from phpbb to bbpress. except into 1.0 version so many plugins were not updated, and new forum didnt go on line,

    and we were waiting for some movement on bbpress and plugins front..

    it looks like time & money was wasted :(

    Maybe, can anyone suggest a viable alternative to bbpress? so we could have a deep integration of wpmu with forums & buddypress

    of course, there has to exist some converters from phpbb…. I have looked and found NO alternative :(

    I’ve updated my site, link in above post, to now have 4 pages. You’ll see that the “Page 1” link is always messed up when you’re viewing it not from the frontpage.

    Oh you’re right… sorry I hadn’t noticed that before. I haven’t had problems with the search before myself (it could be b/c I’m still using the 0.9 branch).

    Here’s a sample search that works OK for me?

    http://boards.weddingbee.com/search.php?q=weddings

    I’d be curious if there was still an issue once the search.php file was deleted or updated… if so, then it could definitely be a broader issue!

    Hi,

    Currently forum.php only shows the topic titles in the forum. I want to extend it a little bit and let it also show the content of the first topic. Example:

    Current:

    Title 1 (I have a problem)

    Title 2 (I hate bananas)

    etc

    What I want:

    Title 1 (I have a problem)

    Hi guys, can you help me with my problem?

    Title 2 (I hate bananas)

    I hate bananas and you? I really hate the taste!

    etc

    Current forum code:

    <?php

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

    $forum_id = 0;

    bb_repermalink();

    if ( !$forum )
    bb_die(__('Forum not found.'));

    $bb_db_override = false;
    do_action( 'bb_forum.php_pre_db', $forum_id );

    if ( !$bb_db_override ) :
    if ( $topics = get_latest_topics( $forum_id, $page ) ) {
    bb_cache_last_posts( $topics );
    }
    if ( $stickies = get_sticky_topics( $forum_id, $page ) ) {
    bb_cache_last_posts( $stickies );
    }
    endif;

    bb_load_template( 'forum.php', array('bb_db_override', 'stickies'), $forum_id );

    ?>

    Seems that thread must be added some where and then only from the first topic (so no replies else it gets too big)

    Any ideas? Also the template should be updated I think.

    Kind regards,

    NM — he has since updated the plugin to fix the issue.

    Using the latest update fixed it.

    Mark as resolved :D

    Hello Everybody

    I’ve just updated my regular wp blog to mu and now I cannot access the bbpress backend. I also noticed that when in mu my users don’t have roles and I cannot assign roles to them. I’m wondering if this is related. Any asistance on this would be appreciated

    Codex. Codex. Codex.

    Open up a BB Codex like we have with WP. How are we going to get more devs to start hopping on the bbPress bandwagon? While many of us enjoy sifting through code when we get the extra time, good documentation is always helpful to get people started. Heck, even some better inline documentation would do wonders right now.

    Seriously, when was the last time this page and its subpages have been updated?

    https://bbpress.org/documentation/

    I’ve got more work than I can possibly handle, but I’d be willing to develop things for the bbPress community. I just don’t have time to spend reading through all the code, line by line, to see how things work.

    Give developers a chance to make the platform shine.

    The success of WordPress comes from the vast number of add-ons (themes and plugins) for the system. Without them, WordPress probably would’ve died a long while ago.

    The lack of documentation is probably turning a good number of developers away from the system, developers that could be creating plugins for many of the features that users want.

    This is the area that needs the most improvement. Let’s work on documentation first. Then, we can start thinking about other things bbPress needs.

    Themes

    I’ve seen a handful of decent themes I’d use, but (as far as I know) there are no major theme developers in the bbPress community. Documentation would go a long way in helping here. This is especially true for designers that don’t know all the ins and outs of the platform’s PHP code.

    I’d personally start coding bbPress themes if it supported the same type of parent/child theme setup that WordPress has. I’d be happy to port all of my WP themes like this.
