I have a problem with bbPress installation.

I first installed WordPress 3.0, BuddyPress and forums that come with BuddyPress.

After, disable the plugin BuddyPress and all other plugins associated with it. I will not use BuddyPress.

Upload bbPress to a new folder: www.mydomain.com/bbPress

With de browser go to www.mydomain.com/bbpress

But do not start the installation of bbPress if that appears directly in the form to register as a user of the forums.

When I try to login and then sends me to an old path BuddyPress:

http://www.mydomain.com/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bbpress/bb-login.php

How I can do to install a clean bbPress without interfering with BuddyPress?

I need to let anonymous users post, and I achieved this result with a plugin. But I need those posts to be held and approved by administrators, and send administrators an email when a new topic or message is sent.

Moderator held plugin is not compatible with newer version of bbpress, is there any other (also partial) solution?

Thanks in advance, best regards.

Hi All,

I have searched but can’t find any discussions on this.

I want to force users to select a forum when they start a new topic. I am hoping for something like this: if they do not drop down to a forum, the topic will not post and they are given a warning that they must select one.

At the moment, most people on my forum don’t bother, and they go into the default (i.e. incorrect) forum.

I should note that I can’t write a plugin or write code, so the more specific directions, the better.

I am hoping to upgrade soon, but for now am on 9.0.4.

Thanks for your help!

Ok, so I have managed (??) to install the latest version.

But the problem now is that admin area doe not look correct. If I understand correctly it should look similar to wordpress and it does not.

Also, if I wanted to make changes to a theme, is there any way to make the changes inside the admin area or do I have make changes to the actual file and then ftp?

So I have this bbPress install, integrated with Word Press, and I’d like to get a few items for the user while he/she views his/her profile. The issue is I don’t know how to retrieve from the Word Press database and all the threads i’ve found on custom profile fields either have the ability to change that (not what I want) or don’t even mention Word Press. Can anyone point me in a direction here? I need help on writing a function to append the Profile page and tips on how to grab data from WPDB in bbPress.

First time I installed BBPress it didn’t work, for some odd reason there was no way to login.

So I wiped away and re-installed and now it’s all working. At the moment I’m using a downloadable theme and integrating the forum into my WordPress just by using an iFrame on a page.

It’s a bit of a naff way of doing it but the style of the forum actually works well enough with my WordPress theme that I’m contemplating keeping it and not really making any changes.

Anyway, I literally just did this an hour or so ago and I think everything’s working, feel free to take a look and tell me what you think!

is there a way to delete members or to ban certain web addresses from signing up? I have askimet set up, but there is no reason for these spammers to still have accounts on my site.

thanks!

Release of the first draft of my proposal for the forking of the bbPress software into a separate and well managed community project.

I want to hire an expert to import my PhpBB forum and other contents from a PHP/MS SQL based website into bbPress and integrate with WordPress.

If you are interested please respond to this thread.

Thanks in advance.

I don’t know what’s the policies of Automattic regarding usernames like facebook

http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=15109

So, can I get a username which is already registered in bbPress user database?

Someone register this username 2 years back, but he/she did not active since then, not even make a single post in bbpress or wordPress suppport or blog ( like desired-username.wordpress.com)

@Moderators / @Admin

So can I get this inactive/useless username.

I don’t want to disclose this username right now. First I want to know its feasibility.

Is it possible or not? Thanks,

With Regards
