Hi there,

Thanks for viewing this topic.

So… where do I start.

I have recently installed BuddyPress with WordPress.

The idea is to create a website that is a cross between news sites like NYTimes and Facebook.

To have users become both the journalists and the viewers.

However, at the moment I’m facing a lot, a lot of inconsistencies.

For example: Should I allow users to even get into the WordPress posting dashboard?

I’d like to make it so users can post on the forums with a good WYSIWYG editor – that they can add images, videos etc. like a normal forum. Then, other users can rate the posts up or down – so that the home page can show which posts have the most views, which posts are highest rated, and so on. However, this has been difficult to do…

So I’d like to ask whether there are plugins… or perhaps any assistance on how one can accomplish that?

I would greatly appreciate any help given here.

Thanks.

Hi,

I just installed bbPress and Avator Upload plugin but I can’t find the option to upload avators on the forum.

Can’t upload them here either.

I need step by step instruction

I want to reInstall bbpress – I messed up first time so I deleted it from my website.

I deleted database I’ve created but now I can’t acces http://endgoalmarketing.com/bbpress

Is there any other way to start installation or just mywebsite.com/bbpress – I get an error message here.

I recently started a blog and I added bbPress for a forum related to the blog. I do have a ‘interesting’ thing happening.

if I go to the forum (http://forum.eshipguy.com) the front page looks great(ish). but if I go to any topic, forum, registration or any other sub-page, Firefox/Internet Explorer changes the title to Page Not Found – yet the content shows just fine.

I am running with deep wordpress integration

Newbee, so please bear with me if I am asking a stupid question.

I am running bbPress 1.02. I was trying to register, and despite the e-mail address being populated, bbPress user registration process keep telling me that I need to specify e-mail address.

http://forum.eshipguy.com

I am using it with WordPress Deep integration

like subject says, when i point my browser to subfolder, bbpress says:

Page not found!

I’m sorry, but there is nothing at this URL.

I am using the default theme. There is a bbpress logo on the top right of my screen.

How do I make this logo clickable on every page of my forum?

I want it to link to back to my main page.

Thanks in advance

I’ve been monkeying around with making a Moderating function for posts/topics (After _ck_’s version, and managed to get it working to a degree). Only exception is, get_topic_posts() obviously won’t let me sniff out posts with custom post_status’. I’ve made it so that new posts to be moderated have a post_status of 9. (Don’t ask, it felt like a good number.)

Is there a hook I can hook into to add an extra dbquery to load my custom status’d posts? I am trying to get moderated posts to show up in the topic, with different visuals depending on who is looking at it.

I was thinking of the filter hook: add_filter(‘get_topic_posts’, ‘myfunc’);

however, the original get_topic_posts() ends up overwriting that, AFAIK… Any clues..?

Alternately, I may as well add custom DB Column name something like.. post_moderated (0/1), and just leave the topics’ status as 0 (open), and do some custom filtering everywhere else…

I want to use for my class BBPRESS. I installed the forum here:

http://ftp.itcs.tsinghua.edu.cn/papakons/teaching/gradcomplexity10/bbpress/

However, I’m getting the following message:

“

Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /home/apache/www/ftp/papakons/teaching/gradcomplexity10/bbpress/bb-settings.php on line 186

…

“

I sent an email to the sys-admin and he replied that this is a problem with bbpress, since he has installed php 5.3.3 and the bbpress code is not compatible. In fact, what he says makes sense to me, since the use of an instruction becomes deprecated later in time and bbpress 1.0 was developed before php 533.

any suggestions of how to correct this?

thanks!
