bbPress.org

Is there any way to change the admin name that I setup at the beginning of the installation. I need to change it only at the posts section.

OK, I know is hard for you guys dealing with the same dumb questions from ignorants like me about databases, upgrading and messing things up. Thats why you are so specials and thats why we all want our own forums to return the favor to other people. Thanks bbpress community for doing this for free while that guy Matt is making millions with WP.

Now the questions:

Things were wrong while upgrading, but the database is still in place and I have the back up of the database in my PC.

Can I reinstall a broken installation in the same directory with the same database (Version 0.94)?

Or can I install version 1.0 in the same directory using the old database?

Thanks

The basic template shows H1 tag as the main forum name for all pages. I want that the H1 tag will reflect:

1. Topic Page = <h1>The Topic Title</h1>

= <h2>The Main BBpress Forum Title</h2>

2. Specific Forum Page = <h1>The Specific Forum Title</h1>

= <h2>The Main BBpress Forum Title</h2>

I think I need to change it both in the header.php and topic.php, in the ‘Kakumei’ template (the base bbpress template).

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi all,

I do try the integration with applications but I get a problem, but really problems is that if I login on WP I lost login on bbpress and if I login on bbpress I lost login on WordPress.

I set in wp-config.php and bb-config.php with same constant:

AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, LOGGED_IN_KEY, NONCE_KEY and BB_AUTH_KEY, BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY, BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY, BB_NONCE_KEY

and I set the 3 value on bbpress setting page, I leave blank field “WordPress “secure auth” cookie salt” beacause I don’t have this field on wordpress.

I installed bbpress integration plug in on wordpress and set the url of forum and I write in wp-config file this string:

define( ‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’ );

Hi,

I have installed bbpress first with my own website. Now, when I have a lot of users on it, I want to switch my website to a wordpress based website. I know it is possible if you want to install bbpress on a wordpress website. I want to ask if I can install wordpress after I have installed bbpress. i.e. I want to transfer all my users from bbpress to wordpress etc.

Thanks

Help! I am a designer, NOT a programmer…I finished up a site for a client last week that included a forum and today we are getting this message: ERROR: Could not establish a database connection. I have a more tech savvy friend trying to help me but I can’t figure it out.

Any suggestions? Thank you so much!

Update, the bb_admin folder cannot be reached… strange! it is on the server but the url says: Oops! This link appears to be broken.

Into the bb-templates directory the readme.txt says: “This directory is reserved for themes distributed with the bbPress core package. If you wish to install more themes, you should create a new directory called “my-templates” in the base directory of your bbPress installation and install them there, not here.”

I did it, but did not work. It works only if I put the new themes into the same bb-templates directory. Wich is the right way?

Hi,everyone,

The default tags page is like

example.com/tags.php?tag={tag_name}

but I want to make the url like

example.com/tags.php?id={tag_id},

is there any way to make it? could it be done by a plugin?

I have to do so because using the tag’s name in url may lead to being blocked by Chinese government’s Internet censorship.

thanks.

Hello,

My integration between WP & BB is failed. Because if i login in WordPress, i must login again in BBpress. So the cookies aren’t the same. But wp-config and bb-config have the same AUTH Keys (So BB_AUTH_KEY and AUTH_KEY are the same (and the rest too ofcourse))

I don’t understand what i am doing wrong.

One thing is good integrated: The users. In both installation, i can logged in with every username. (that is registered)

EDIT:

When i see in bb-admin/options-wordpress.php, the AUTH KEY’s are different then the KEY’s that i have set in de bb-config and wp-config.

Thanks

I’ve seen some threads here and there that suggest its just a matter of using the header and footer code from your wordpress theme and applying it to your bbpress theme.

I’m a real disaster when it comes to doing a whole lot with code. I can only edit and rearrange it. I have no experience with writing any code.

I was wondering if there was anyone more experienced with performing this that I could send the needed wordpress theme files to and maybe I could receive some help with the process?

I am willing to pay for help if needed, I appreciate such generous help.
