Hey!

I finally setup bbpress inside http://example.com/forum/

Of course I would like to use permalinks, because they are already working with my WordPress-Blog http://example.com

I am not a specialist in setting up .htaccess, so I would like to request your help.

The “main” .htacess reads as follows:

# BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Redirect permanent /zsblog http://example.com

Redirect permanent /zsblog/feed/ http://example.com/feed/

As you can see my blog runs inside /zsblog which is located in / on my server.

bbpress runs inside /zsblog/forum

Here the .htaccess of “bbpress”:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /forum

RewriteRule ^forum/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /forum.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^forum/([^/]+)/?$ /forum.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^topic/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /topic.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^topic/([^/]+)/?$ /topic.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^tags/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /tags.php?tag=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^tags/([^/]+)/?$ /tags.php?tag=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^tags/?$ /tags.php [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^profile/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /profile.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^profile/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /profile.php?id=$1&tab=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^profile/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /profile.php?id=$1&tab=$2&page=$3 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^profile/([^/]+)/?$ /profile.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^view/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /view.php?view=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^view/([^/]+)/?$ /view.php?view=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^rss/?$ /rss.php [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^rss/forum/([^/]+)/?$ /rss.php?forum=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^rss/topic/([^/]+)/?$ /rss.php?topic=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^rss/tags/([^/]+)/?$ /rss.php?tag=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^rss/profile/([^/]+)/?$ /rss.php?profile=$1 [L,QSA]

</IfModule>

Unfortunately, when clicking on a new created forum or on a topic I get redirects to random(?) articles inside my WordPress-Blog.

Any ideas how I can fix that?

BTW.: Option +MultiViews didn’t work for me. Need to set it up separately.

Thanks in advance!

All the best,

I found a way to use facebook-connect for bbpress.

1st

install the “bbpress Integration” plugin for wordpress

2nd

integrate bbpress to wordpress

3rd

install “Facebook Connect” Plugin of Adam Hupp (the current version is 1.0) and follow the instructions

4th

Integrade a fb-connect button on your bbpress site (in wordpress its done automatically)

Thats it. I only found some minor problems with umlauts like “ä ö ü” but this shouldn’t be a problem for native English speakers…its only a problem for all others (including me) .

I have downloaded several plugins, bbRating, alow-images…I have added the php files to myplugin folder, actived the plugins, but I don’t see those plugins at the forum page, anyone can help?

Line 1508:

$defaults = array( ‘id’ => 0, ‘before’ => ” );

really disrupts the layout. Changing to:

$defaults = array( ‘id’ => 0, ‘before’ => NULL, ‘after’ => NULL );

Fixes the nasty template issue.

Can this line of code be modified in the core code for distribution?

Thanks

Hi,

I have been struggling for days to fix a customization problem in my bbpress forum: I want to extend the header to the end of the page but when I do that, it knocks out the sidebar to the bottom of the page.

It seems like a simple customization but I can’t do it!

My page is polina-such.freehostia.com/bbpress. You will see that the header does not go all the way across.

If you can help, please contact me at rlebowitz AT yahoo.com. I think it should be short customization.

Thank you!!!

I have spent the whole afternoon trying to set up a simple forum for my website www.bathastronomers.co.uk. It really needs to be nothing special – it’s just a place for a small group of astronomers to chat and arrange observing sessions. People need to be able to register, post and receive email notifications of replies.

So, first I tried Simple:Press. Installation was pretty simple and it played nicely with WordPress but it is soooo slow – to the point of being unusable.

So then I found this site and was very excited by the slogan “Simple, fast, elegant”… boy, was I in for a shock!

I eventually got the thing installed and spent some time getting it integrated using the “bbPress Integration” plugin. After going through all the steps I got no error meassages until I tried to login. I tried my bbPress username and password but no dice. Then I thought “hey, maybe it is now integrated and I can use my WP usernam and password!”

Yeah, right. That would have been too easy.

I must say that while I totally respect the efforts of the guys making these plugins, the installation procedure and documentation is laughable – it is like some bizarre logic puzzle or riddle. I am not a n00b but I just cannot get it to work. The forum appears to be a completely seperate entity to my WP site and I cannot login. And it’s not just me – a quick google search reveals that there are plenty of people wrestling with the setup of this “simple” forum plugin.

Sorry for the long post but this has been a total waste of an afternoon and I needed to vent. Seems like no-one can make a decent forum for wordpress. Perhaps I will use Joomla for the site…

Chris,

Please unspam my profile named ashfame

after a new install, I cannot seem to edit the forums in admin. When I hover cursor over the forum title, the little view/edit/delete menu appears below, but I cannot click on them. The ‘little hand’ does not appear or allow me to. Any ideas what the problem mght be?

ps – just discovered also that I cannot even add a topic or post – there appears to be no ‘add topic’ or ‘add post’ button available!

whats going on? Anyone advise?

Thanks

Hi,

I am using bbpress for my forum page, located at polina-such.freehostia.com/bbpress.

I am using the cool TooNewsy theme. (http://www.bbpressthemes.net/too-newsy/)

The only problem I have been having is that I cannot extend my header across the page without it somehow knocking the sidebar under the forum posts! I want the sidebar to stay where it is, but I also need the header to stretch across the page and not end prematurely.

I have tried for days to fix the css to no avail. I have also tried reaching out to the developers but have not as of yet gotten a response.

I would greatly appreciate it if anyone here can help. Thank you very, very much!

Robert
