Hi,

I am building a forum (http://donnasdream.co.uk/forum) to co-exist with my existing wordpress blog (http://donnasdream.co.uk).

I have tried to install BB-Mobile and followed the instructions to the letter however i cannot get it to work. I am using version 1.0.2 of BB-Press and the latest version i can find of BB-Mobile.

As my work for the website involves me travelling around quite alot i really need to be able to access a mobile version of the forum like i can for the main site so i can quickly reply to posts etc (http://donnasdream.co.uk should show a mobile site on most touch screen phones).

Does anyoneknow anything i can do to get this working, even if its a crude work-around (the mobile site is more for me to use as i dont think the majority of the visitors to the site will use it).

Many thanks in advance

Is there any way to protect KeyMaster? I created Administrator and I deleted KeyMaster, I changed that via myphp from cpanel, but is there any way to protect from this, maybe some plugin?

So I want to restrict Adminstrator-s to edit KeyMaster account.

I installed two new themes, and none of them are showing up. I changed the permissions on the my-templates folder and each of the theme folders to 755, but they’re still not showing up.

Any idea why? I’ll I’m seeing on the “appearance” page is the 3 themes that come with bbpress

I’m having a little trouble,

my Bavatar plugin seems to be working fine.

However when I try to upload an image, it says Avatar uploaded successfully but the avatar is nowhere to be found or seen, I tried posting and I still couldn’t see my avatar…

Any ideas?

Vanilla 2 is here (http://vanillaforums.org) and they are working on a full integration with WordPress.

Even Matt M. is supporting it. Start packing your bags

I have a WordPress website and want to add a forum (message board). If I wanted to use bbPress do I setup a bbPress forum first and then integrate it into WordPress or can I install bbPress in WordPress and then set up the forum?

I want to add a forum to this site and as i run the installer i get this message “An old config.php file has been detected in your installation. You should remove it and run the installer again. You can use the same database connection details if you do.”

BBpress has been added in the forum folder in the root where the config.php file for the existing site to which i want to add a forum for. e.g mysite.com/forum(bbpress). It is asking me to remove the config file and if i remove the config file than the site won’t work. Has anyone got any suggestions, i have read through that some people managed to install bbpress with existing non-wordpress sites.

thanks in advance.

trying to integrate bbpress to use my wordpress theme… but running into problems. when i put the code into the bb.config file

require_once(‘../blog/header.php’);

if (file_exists(‘../blog/header.php’))

require_once(‘../blog/header.php’);

else

if (file_exists(‘../../blog/header.php’))

require_once(‘../../blog/header.php’);

it stacks the path on top of the forum path instead of where it belongs… giving me the error:

Warning: require_once(../blog/header.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/xxxx/public_html/forum/bb-config.php on line 70

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘../blog/header.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/xxxx/public_html/forum/bb-config.php on line 70

has anyone else had this problem… and can you share how to fix it?

I’m using the method of replacing the header.php file content with <?php get_header(); ?> and the footer with <?php get_footer(); ?> if there is a better way of going about this, I’m open so please share

thanks!

I am helping a friend get bbpress installed with his wordpress site at www.sealgrinderpt.com and www.sealgrinderpt.com/forums.

I have it installed. I have added a link on home page to get to the forums.

My wordpress integration seems to not be working. He has an admin account on wpress that is not recognized on the forums. I created an default admin account in the bbpress installation. That account is not recognized when logon to wpress. The wp_config file does not have a $table entry so wondering if that is my downfall on the integration.

Next question is how to get the header and look and feel of wpress site to carry over to the forum? I want at least the logo at top and the navigation menus.

Thanks for help on these 2 issues. I am sure I will have more as I work on this site for my friend. Thanks in advance for all of the assistance.
