Great to see BBPress as a WordPress Plug-in. It was a real pain trying to integrate WordPress and BBPress user accounts so I gave up.
It would be nice if there was a ‘Show Avatars’ option in settings. I wouldn’t use an external avatar site and, since WordPress users don’t have avatars, it would be good not to show empty boxes everywhere.
Hi,
I have a local version of bbpress running perfectly. However when I uploaded it to my live site it all sort of works except for the when you login to the bb-admin area.
When you login, that page gets stuck in a redirect loop between the login page and the admin page, and you can never access the admin area.
However on my local site you can login perfectly.
Does anyone know what might be causing this?
I’ve tried a different browser just incase it’s a cookies/session issue but its not al. Also the data base has been updated with what I think area all the correct urls. Is there something special in the db I’m missing?
Cheers.
Installed beta 3.0b just now to correct the blank homepage problem, and now a different problem is back, which is the insertion of the word “native” in the breadcrumb on any topic page.
It’s the first word in several files right out of the downloaded ZIP:
bbp-themesbbp-twentytensingle-reply-edit.php
bbp-themesbbp-twentytensingle-topic-merge.php
bbp-themesbbp-twentytencontent-single-topic.php
bbp-themesbbp-twentytencontent-single-user-edit.php
bbp-themesbbp-twentytencontent-single-view.php
When I remove that word from those files, the problem goes away.
Hi there,
I would like to know if there is a way to import a forum into a page instead of a post? For example, there is a poll plugin for WordPress that allows you to place a poll in the page using [poll id=”3″] tags.
Is this at all possible with bbPress? I’m using the latest WordPress as well as the latest bbPress plugin.
I feel that if this feature does not already exist, it should be implemented in the next release (Please)
Regards,
Hello,
I have a website based on WordPress.
And I have installed bbPress.
My aim is to have a single ‘scrolling’ page.
My question is how I can ‘run’ the forum in a <div> ; which will be in my page.php theme of my wordpress website?
Thank you
Installed bbPress 2.0-beta3 plugin this week, things initially seemed to work well, but now the main “Forums” page (http://www.nwcouncil.org/blog/index.php/forums/) doesn’t list any forums. However, the “bbPress Forum List” widget for twentyten theme *does* work.
I have two test forums (see http://www.nwcouncil.org/blog/index.php/forum/eric for example), so each forum and its posts work correctly, but clicking the “Forums” breadcrumb takes you to the blank page above.
I see that the page seems to include content from bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten/archive-forum.php, which surprises me because I thought it would use /page-front-forums.php.
The only tweaks I’d made were to uncheck the “Incude the Forum Base slug in your single forum item links” box [also note the typo^ in that checkbox label], and I have WP permalinks set to month/year/postname.
Flummoxed, but liking the plugin in all other aspects.
I will gladly send any other details to whomever can help.
I installed bbpress through wordpress yesterday. I think I have everything installed correctly but I have a problem (so obviously something is wrong). I thought that if I added “forum” to the end of my site address if would show the forums. That basically takes me to a 404 page. But if I go directly to one of the categories it kind shows up. What I mean by that is that it is not a 404 page, but not quite the forums either. Hard to explain. So I will leave it alone for now and just include links to the two places and you can see for yourself and hop hopefully know what is going on.
Just to the “forum”= http://www.laughsonthenet.com/forum
To a category in the forums= http://www.laughsonthenet.com/forum/jokes/
Have any of you tried importing large/medium sized bbPress 0.9/1.0 forums into bbPress 2.0? If so, did the migration go successfully, or were there a few hiccups in getting the data to port in one chunk?
I attempted to migrate a reasonably big forum this afternoon and it didn’t go particularly well. It threw an error (can’t remember what it said – need to attempt again) and locked me out of WordPress. The automated database backup worked well, so I was able to get it back up and working just fine though.
There’s around 115,000 posts and 44,000 users in the forum I was attempting to migrate.
hi guys,
i’m looking to add input fields for the topic initiator. how would i bet do this using the new bbpress plugin?
Hi guys, im new to BBPress but very impressed seeing it working in action on other sites.
I recently purchased a theme from themify.me (a really good builder of wordpress theme’s an loads more.
I installed BBPress onto the new theme (now this guy uses BBPress on his themify.me site and works a charm so his themes should be compatible he said.
The problem im experiencing is that the main forum looks correct and the right size but the sub forums and the topics are all crushed up over the left side of the screen and ive no idea why. There is no custom coding here so im clueless?
Here are some screen shots, can somebody point me in the right directions please?
Cheers
Steve
