Live Comment Preview plugin causes spurious Akismet API calls

Published on May 14th, 2010 by Tellyworth

Howdy,

It looks like the Live Comment Preview causes unexpected API calls to Akismet – a separate API call each time the preview updates (i.e. almost every keystroke).

I assume this happens because the preview plugin calls the pre_post filter, which in turn triggers bb_ksd_check_post().

I imagine there may be other plugins that cause a similar problem. Would like to help fix it but I have only a superficial understanding of the bbPress code. Suggestions for the Right Way to do it?

Suddenly getting error when posting videos

Published on May 13th, 2010 by tanmccuin

I’ve been using the BBvideo plugin for a couple years now, haven’t changed anything in my site recently, though i did do some work in the site route (not the bbpress folder.)

this morning a user told me that when they try’d to post a vid, they got the following error.

Forbidden

You don’t have permission to access /discuss/bb-post.php on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

even if i’m logged in as admin, i still get the forbidden.

2 things. all the vids previously uploaded, still show up (IE, the link, gets converted to an embed vid.) so the plugin seems to be working… and if i disable it, but still paste in a link to say http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYsTV2C9zaM, even though the plugin is disabled, it still spits back a forbidden error. Yet, if i just write in random text, without a link reference… it posts fine.

Completely baffled.

Thoughts?

Question on customizing forums

Published on May 13th, 2010 by John78_98

Hi,

In the forums page, I want to create a map and if user click on a particular region, then it should lead into the forums for that region. Let’s say I have four different regions.

I know this is a wild dream. Can I even setup something like this using bbpress and wordpress combination?

Thanks

Suddenly getting 404 errors on bb-post.php, bb-edit.php

Published on May 13th, 2010 by

our forum is here:

http://www.copsandrobbers.net/messageboard/

It has been working fine for about a year. Yesterday I removed a few plugins relating to ping.fm on the WPMU side which shouldn’t affect anything in bbpress (although you never know…)

Now users are reporting that they can post, reply but the second reply fails with a 404.

They also cannot edit the post.

I have checked via FTP and both of these files are present:

http://www.copsandrobbers.net/messageboard/bb-edit.php

http://www.copsandrobbers.net/messageboard/bb-post.php

Any help would be appreciated

Please feel free to log in and post on the test thread.

bbPress and WordPress .htaccess conflict

Published on May 13th, 2010 by free-russia-net

Sorry, does anybody knows here how to settle such a problem. No pictures could be seen in my bbPress forum and the basic theme can not be changed, because no other theme works properly. For example, the is definitely a file on the server http://www.free-russia.net/bbpress/my-plugins/bbpress-polls/icon.png but .htaccess file of WordPress redirects to the 404 error page.

The .htaccess file is this one:

The blog is here: http://free-russia.net and the forum is here: http://free-russia.net/bbpress.

Could anybody say what should be added or changed to make the forum work properly?

Making an "if" statement for topics page

Published on May 13th, 2010 by sheryll

Is there a way to define an “if” statement for the topics page. Here is what I am trying to do. I want the topic info/meta to be displayed on the sidebar. The sidebar codes are in the footer.php file which means that it will be displayed site-wide.

There is this line if (bb_get_forum_is_category()) : for categories, so I’m wondering if I can do something similar like “if this is a topics page, display so and so.” and if not it will be hidden.

Un-integrate WPMU with bbP

Published on May 12th, 2010 by gerikg

I’m not happy with MU.

I want to know if I’m able to remove WPMU with damaging bbP. What I read i need to separate bb_users. Sounds easy but I don’t have bb_users table.
