Not sure if it existed already, but I made this myself. It’s a mobile-friendly interface to bbPress that uses the XML-RPC api.

For a “via Mobile bbPress” thing in posts you need to patch xmlrpc.php and install a plugin. It is probably possible to move the patching into the plugin, but I’m not sure what or how.

Just want some php/bbpress gurus to look through it and see stuff that I can’t.

To see it in operation, check our http://dump.master5o1.com/mobi/.

That currently points to http://tartarus.co.nz/community/

http://m.tartarus.co.nz/ is the mobile version of Tartarus.

Sorry to be naiive but is this a plugin or a theme for bbpress? I would be happy to test this for you, as it would be useful for my work.

I have something similar set up for my other wordpress site that has the wp-iphone plug-in and a vast html forum server, it works ok, but it is very useful.

I am not a guru of any sort, but I would be happy to test it for you, provided that I am given some clear guidance. I can find my way around php to make adjustments, but not much yet.

It’s a stand alone system using the XML-RPC api for bbPress.

For example, http://m.tartarus.co.nz points to the bbPress installation on http://tartarus.co.nz/community,

and (currently) http://dump.master5o1.com/mobi/ also points to the same bbPress install.

I’ve uploaded a new bbPress-Mobile.zip to my website that has some other things.

What you’d put on http://m.example.com/ would be in the ./mobile-bbpress./ folder.

The plugin for bbPress is the ./xmlrpc-client-info/ folder, which you’d put on the bbPress side.

And then to actually make the plugin receive anything, you’d patch the xmlrpc.php file, details are in ./xmlrpc-patch/ — basically replace your existing xmlrpc.php with xmlrpc.patched.php.

i have downloaded the files, and will mess around with them a bit. Just to be clear, i upload the mobile file outside of the bbpress installation, and the patches within the bbpress files?

ie: address technically be http://www.example.com/mobile-bbpress

rather than http://www.example.com/bbpress/mobile-bbpress

Plugin: example.com/bbpress/my-plugins/xml-client-info/

Patch: example.com/bbpress/xmlrpc.php (patched) *

Mobile: example.com/mobile-bbpress/index.php **

* If you change the ‘xmlrpc.php’ filename in mobile-bbpress/index.php to ‘xmlrpc.patched.php’ then you can just copy xmlrpc.patched.php to your root bbpress directory instead of modifying the stock bbpress one.

** Mobile: m.example.com/index.php (subdomain)

I have set up my own forum for testing and support purposes:

http://dump.master5o1.com/bbpr/

I have also pointed my bbPress Mobile instance to that forum:

http://dump.master5o1.com/mobi/

So to configure this baby..

i have uploaded everything, including patch, activated plugin.

at this point

http://www.terralingua.org/mobile-bbpress/index.php

i get the internal server error.

of course, it has not been configured.

i figure i work with this bit..

$uri = “http://m.example.com”;

$brand = “bbPress Mobile”;

$host = “example.com”

$directory = “”; // if you bbPress is in a folder such as /forum

so i have tried…

$uri = “http://m.terralingua.org”;

$brand = “bbPress Mobile”;

$host = “terralingua.org”

$directory = “/bbpress”; // if you bbPress is in a folder such as /forum

and i still the the same error message, i am assuming it is my filepaths…

i can post this on your support forum you are setting up if you like to break it in…

Oh yeah, .htaccess is something to edit in that mobile-bbpress folder. And tick the option in bbPress’ settings to allow the xmlrpc api* to be used.

* /bb-admin/options-writing.php
