bbPress.org

I am using the bbpress integration plugin to sync my wp and bbpress site up for users to login/logout.

I am having some issues getting my front-page login to work the way that i want it to. Currently (complete code and file setup at bottom) when i try to login initially i have the fields:

Community Login or [link – Register] – [link -Lost Password?]

[field – username] [field – password] [btn – login]

when i input the username and password and hit login it shoots me to the login page where i need to do this again in doer to login.

currently i have this code attributed to my login button:

<input type=”image” src=”<?php bb_option(‘uri’); ?>my-templates/discussion_center/images/top_login_btn.png” width=”67″ height=”23″ alt=”Submit Form” value=”<?php _e(‘Login’);?>” />

i am guessing thats where the issue lies with that. i would like it to NOT go to another page and to just log in right there.

Next, after i am logged in the set up is like this:

Welcome back, username!

[link – View your profile] [link – logout]

the logout link seems to work, logging me out of my bbpress install, but it doesnt log me out of my wp install… any fix for that?

i added the cookies line to the wp-config.php for the plugin, am i supposed to add it to the bb-config.php too?

Thanks for the help in advance!!!

Use the links below to manage your account.

I can see strong arguments for both a wp plugin and a standalone forum.

Also, the reality is that both will exist in the future. The WP team is very passionate about “bbPress as plugin” and at the same time some existing large installations will see to the continuation of standalone version in some format.

So it might be good to frame this decision differently than plugin versus standalone… The real question is: to what extent do we want the plugin and standalone versions of the bbPress code base to evolve independently versus in a coordinated way?

Simplistically, the two options are:

1. coupled roadmap with coordinated releases or periodic rev/fwd integrations

2. independent roadmaps that diverge over time (the current plan of record)

Both options (coupled roadmap and independent roadmap) can work, but it would be better for this decision to be the result of thoughtful discussion.

To kick things off, here are some pros of a coupled roadmap:

– Higher quality for standalone (benefitting from the larger installed base of the plugin)

– Better performance for the plugin (benefitting from the big standalone sites)

– More tight WP integration is likely

And some pros of independent evolution of the plugin and standalone versions

– More flexibility in release roadmap for both versions

– No compromises for either version

Another more subtle effect to consider is the impact on dev resources invested in the code base. For example, I think that there are currently a lot of “silent” but significant resources being invested in standalone bbPress development. It would be great to pull more of that work into the official project, but I fear that opportunity will go away once the move is made to “bbPress as plugin”.

Hi everybody,

I searched for the themes for my bbforum like this : https://wordpress.org/support/ but I found one theme that it named mimic, i guess. but the style and the color is not the same. I need it ( this theme : https://wordpress.org/support/ ) for the Persian WordPress Supporting ( fa-wp.com ) …. Please Help Me … Please (

I’m sorry if this has been discussed. I’ve tried a bunch of different searches to no avail. Installing bbPress with MU is easy enough, but is it possible to somehow install bbPress in such a way, via a plugin or something, that would allow anybody with a blog on the multiuser site to have a bbpress forum? It can be done with a forum plugin like simplepress, but I really like bbpress and would rather do it that way if possible.

Thanks.

Greets –

After having a great time tinkering with bbPress and deciding upon a theme, I’ve turned my attention to plugins.

Here are some I’ve tried and gotten nowhere with. If anyone has an alternative to suggest (or how to get these working), it would be appreciated.

“Open_in_new_window” (opens link in new window) – no work-o with Zaerl Editor (IE or FF)

“Post Notification”, Subscribe To Topics” – both dead

“Live Comment Preview” – couldn’t understand the instructions

“Checkbox for e-mail subscription” (the one used here) – doesn’t appear to be available as a plugin

Thanks,

Joe

So I’m wondering, how will the bbPress plugin deal with front-end editing? It’s certainly not uncommon that you need to go back and edit your post, and when you do that you’d rather not be sucked into the WP admin panel just for a quick edit. However, from the little I’ve experienced and read about plugins taking advantage of custom post types in WordPress, front-end editing is no simple task.

Example one: BuddyPress Wiki Component

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-wiki/

In order to achieve front-end editing of wiki pages (custom post type), it bundles its own TinyMCE script. This also allows it to extend TinyMCE with wiki-specific features.

Example two: Justin Tadlock’s Custom Post Type based Forum

http://justintadlock.com/archives/2010/07/16/a-wordpress-forum-plugin-using-custom-post-types

At the time being, front-end editing is not possible with his forum, and according to his roadmap the forum will use existing inline-edit plugins available (I believe Scribu’s editor was mentioned somewhere).

I wouldn’t imagine the official bbPress plugin would resort to yet another plugin for such a basic functionality, so what’s the plan? What I’d love to see is rich front-end editing based on the native WP editor, meaning if I have plugins that extend the native editor, they also extend the front-end editor (provided its within the scope of the editor-extending plugin and the admin enables it).

Best case scenario, this involves modifying the WordPress core so that plugins like the two mentioned above will also have an easier time tapping into native WordPress for front-end edits.

Can anyone think of a reason why this registration form gives you an error about not having an email address even though I enter one just fine here?

This was working a week ago, and something changed. I haven’t done anything with the templates though so I’m really clueless as to what’s blocking registration. Is there any clue by viewing source that can help?

Thanks!

Hi all, id like to set up a wordpress website that lets a user signup which then gives them their own blog and also gives them access to the forum – is this possible?

then as an extra but not essential – is it possible to do the above but use facebook connect to gain access to the above?

hope that makes sense

Hello,

I hope someone can help. I just moved my website to a new host. I’ve copied all files from the old bbpress directory to the one created with the new host. Everything seems to be working fine except for the Register function. If I try to create a new user and click Register nothing happens. Should I maybe change some permissions?

Thanks for any input.

Is there a better option than gravatar for making avatars? I like gravatar, but most novice users still can’t figure it out. Also – are there better options for profiles in general? Are there plugins where people can add real information to their profile pages, not just the bbpress defaults? I don’t need much, just a little more than is there now, like a bio and whatnot.
