bbPress.org

I recently downloaded new themes to my-templates – at first the themes would not display but after searching the forums I changed the folder settings and now the new themes are displaying fine at my forum:

http://www.nissenfundoplication.com

However, the theme will not display on the REGISTER page or the SEARCH page.

I tried changing the permissions on bb-templates and kakumei but it didn’t help.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks!

Is it possible that a long topic, that has like 100 posts is split up into pages of 15, like most board softwares do? I haven’t found the feature yet, or is this part of the bbPress core? Any help is appreciated. If it helps, I’m using bbPress 1.0.2.

Hello,

I had bbpress installed and working very nicely – integrated with wordpress and working as a private forum for to allow guests to discuss our upcoming wedding. All was going well, but I’ve suddenly found that I can’t get into the forum or the administrator section because the installation error screen is coming up:

Oh dear!

bbPress is already installed.

Perhaps you meant to run the upgrade script instead?

I have had some weird issues recently which my hosting provider may or may not have “fixed” by rolling back to 6th July. So I have 2 questions:

1) Does anyone have any idea what might have caused this? I haven’t touched either the WP or bbpress installations at all. I assume nothing in bbpress would update automatically and break older versions of wordpress (I’m still on v2.9-ish). I realise this is a ludicrously weak bug report but I’m a bit lost right now and I can’t get into bbpress to check what plugins are active, which version I’m on etc…

2) If I do need to just cut my losses, wipe it clean and reinstall, is there a way to backup everyone’s comments and then repopulate the fresh bbpress with them?

Any help most appreciated,

Adam.

Hello.

I cannot load (not properly) any of the themes from my-templates. I have copied the two themes that came with the installation (changed the names) in my-templates, I can see them (in Appearance) as being in the “user” directory (I don’t get a preview, even though there is a screenshot there), but when I activate them, I only get the content of my pages, without a header, footer etc.

I have set the permissions (775) for the my-templates folder. I have also set the header and footer images in style.css to their proper destinations (background: #fff url(‘images/header.jpg) no-repeat center; and footer.jpg).

I am also the key-master, so there shouldn’t be any problems there. What I am trying to do is to make my bbpress theme as similar as possible with that from wordpress.

This is how the forum looks at the moment: http://pastorbob.limewebs.com/

Here is my wordpress website: http://www.pastorbob.org/

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

The Leaderboard plugin is fantastic, but it is broken. I can get it to show a Leaderboard, but whenever a user clicks on any of the other display options aside from “of all time” they get redirected to the forum homepage, as you can see here:

I’m not the only one with this problem, others on the plugin’s discussion have had it too. how can this be fixed?

Thanks

I have a wordpress blog that does not share the same database as my bbpress forum. I am trying to find a bbpress plugin that can read the RSS feed of my external blog and generate new forum threads with my blog post names and content, under my name.

Ts this realistic? Is there such a plugin that does this? Can I do this without integrating my external blog and my bbpress (for my bbpress is already integrated with another wordpress site)?

Thansk!

I’m running bbpress 1.0.1 and I am hesitant to upgrade because I don’t know what it will do to my plugins (most of which have been abandoned by their authors) and I’m not sure why I should upgrade. Plus, with the rumor of a bbpress plugin for wordpress coming out, I’m concerned about the future of this version of bbpress. Maybe you guys can answer some questions for me.

Here is my bbpress so you can see where I’m at:

1) Will my users, plugins, databases and themes all still work find and dandy if I upgrade? Is there an easier way to upgrade aside, like there is with wordpress?

2) These are my current plugins. Does anyone know any incompatability with them and the current version of bbpress?:

3) When/if this new bbpress plugin comes out, will there be a way to convert my bbpress installation into teh plugin or otherwise make it compatable?

Thanks bunches all!

Hello all,

Hey everyone,

I am new to bbpress and so far am finding it a great tool.

I was wondering if there is any way (plugin or scripting) that i can restrict access to certain forums unless you are logged in. For instance you would be able to see the forum name/theme but when you try to access that forum you would be brought to the login/register page. While at the same time other forum themes are readable while you arent logged in.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Will
