bbPress.org

I am digging bbPress!

Check out my new forum…

Music Festival Junkies Forum

I changed the domain name for my board from olddomain.com to newdomain.com.

However, all the links on the site (the login button, links to threads and even the board name link) still point to olddomain.com.

How can I fix this?

I have no .htaccess file.

OK I am going round in circles trying to get bbpress installed;

I have done a fresh unzip to a new directory, as a sub-directory of WordPress…

If I then open the url mysite.com/forums (i renamed bbpress folder to forums) I get a cannot connect to database error…

So I then go bb-config-sample.php file and rename it to bb-config.php and enter my database details and then go back to mysite.com/forums URL and either get

“Oh dear! bbPress is already installed.”

Or I get a prompt for database details which leads me to a login page with “User does not exist.” error…

Is there a way to create a user somehow? I cannot login as there’s no existing user…

I am going round in circles and nothing seems to work…

I have tried many different variations, I had it working once but since then (deleted all files) I cannot get it going again…

Any ideas?

Hello, trying to get bbpress 1.0.2 working with wordpress 3.0.3. It appears to install OK and can read the wp user table – I can log in to bbpress with wordpress accounts. The wp user I designate as the keymaster can use the Admin link on bbpress. However when I try to use the admin feature something seems broken – I get a page with unstyled text showing some statistics, and all I can do is change the theme. (screenshot here: http://yfrog.com/mkbbpressadminerrorp ) Shouldn’t I be able to create new forums or do other admin stuff from here?

I tried to reset my password here on the bbpress and got the email but the reset link led to a ‘you are not allowed…’ page. I noticed a few topics on this here, is this still an open bug and will I see it on my (soon to be) own install?

Any help appreciated

Hi,

This forums layout looks great! Two columns: Left FORUMS categories and Hot Tags; Right: Topics.

How to make layout like this?

Any clues are greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I just started the site today and do not have it integrated to a word press site yet in anyway. After filling in the login fields with either correct or incorrect info, it simply sends to a completely blank page with nothing on it.

The page in question is http://cbayprod.com/forum

Thanks.

I am interested in hearing out what you guys are using for controlling spam on your forums and how effective they are.

Thanks in advance!

Edit – I am running 1.0.2v

now i hava a forum,the forum has 4,000,000 data,in bbpress i saw all data is in database table bb_posts ,i want to know is bbpress can carry it,

i like bbpress ,i want to use bbpress.

I have made a front-page where i show off all latest topics matching the forum ID’s..

It looks like this.

Forum id = General questions -> latest topics of the general questions

Forum id = Support questions -> latest topics of the support questions

I did this by hiding or deleting the forum id’s from all others and repeat the latest topics section.

Like this.

‘

<table id=”latest” role=”main”>

<tr>

<th><?php _e(‘Topic’); ?> — <?php bb_new_topic_link(); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Posts’); ?></th>

<!– <th><?php _e(‘Voices’); ?></th> –>

<th><?php _e(‘Last Poster’); ?></th>

</tr>

<?php if ( $stickies ) : foreach ( $stickies as $topic ) : ?>

<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_topic_labels(); ?> <big>“><?php topic_title(); ?></big><?php topic_page_links(); ?></td>

<td class=”num”><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>

<!– <td class=”num”><?php bb_topic_voices(); ?></td> –>

<td class=”num”><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td>

</tr>

<?php endforeach; endif; ?>

<?php if ( $topics ) : foreach ( $topics as $topic ) : ?>

<?php if( $topic->forum_id != 4 ) { ?>

<?php if( $topic->forum_id != 5 ) { ?>

<?php if( $topic->forum_id != 6 ) { ?>

<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_topic_labels(); ?> “><?php topic_title(); ?><?php topic_page_links(); ?></td>

<td class=”counter”><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>

<!– <td class=”num”><?php bb_topic_voices(); ?></td> –>

<td class=”last-post-avatar”><?php echo bb_get_avatar( $topic->topic_last_poster , ’36’); ?></td>

</tr>

<?php } ?>

<?php } ?>

<?php } ?>

<?php endforeach; endif; ?>

</table>

<table id=”latest” role=”main”>

<tr>

<th><?php _e(‘Topic’); ?> — <?php bb_new_topic_link(); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Posts’); ?></th>

<!– <th><?php _e(‘Voices’); ?></th> –>

<th><?php _e(‘Last Poster’); ?></th>

</tr>

<?php if ( $stickies ) : foreach ( $stickies as $topic ) : ?>

<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_topic_labels(); ?> <big>“><?php topic_title(); ?></big><?php topic_page_links(); ?></td>

<td class=”num”><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>

<!– <td class=”num”><?php bb_topic_voices(); ?></td> –>

<td class=”num”><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td>

</tr>

<?php endforeach; endif; ?>

<?php if ( $topics ) : foreach ( $topics as $topic ) : ?>

<?php if( $topic->forum_id != 3 ) { ?>

<?php if( $topic->forum_id != 4 ) { ?>

<?php if( $topic->forum_id != 6 ) { ?>

<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_topic_labels(); ?> “><?php topic_title(); ?><?php topic_page_links(); ?></td>

<td class=”counter”><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>

<!– <td class=”num”><?php bb_topic_voices(); ?></td> –>

<td class=”last-post-avatar”><?php echo bb_get_avatar( $topic->topic_last_poster , ’36’); ?></td>

</tr>

<?php } ?>

<?php } ?>

<?php } ?>

<?php endforeach; endif; ?>

But know i have a problem with using this plugin.

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/front-page-topics/

I only want to show the latest 5 topics of each forum ID (excluding the once i’m hiding)

Know with this plugin it also counts the topics i’m hiding..

Isn’t there some code that says: show only the latest 5 topics from forum ID 3

Thanks,
