Good evening,
I’ve just installed BBPRESS but I need to have a particular functionality I’ve not found up to now.
I’d like to allow every user to send a copy of the message to an email address chosen during the editing of the message.
The email address should be insered in a form placed below che Post form.
Could you help me to find out this kind of plugin?
Tnx!!
Hi,
Is there some way to reload an older database backup in my BBpress forum without losing new posts and new users between the the last back up and to date?
I am having problems with a plugin that suddenly stopped working and I was thinking it might be a DB problem.
I don’t want to lose 4 days worth of posts and new user registrations by reloading an older DB back up.
Can I just not drop certain tables and save that information while updating everything else?
If so, could someone explain how to do that to preserve this information?
I am using BBpress version 1.0.2
Thanks!
Scott
Hi,
So I uploaded the uncompressed files as instructed. Which of course come wrapped in a folder. Not being instructed otherwise, I uploaded the entire folder, wondering silently how the server would know how to handle the files.
Item number 4 carries the rather cryptic instruction to “Visit the intended URL of the bbPress site” which I think means to go to the website to which the bbPress files have been uploaded. Which I did.
Then it says that “You will be greeted with the bbPress installer”
Of course this didn’t happen.
Okay, so I figured you must have to remove the containing folder after all. So reupped the files now in unwrapped form.
Having done this a screen did appear which queried for database info. I entered all of that and it said that it “couldn’t establish a connection with the database”.
So I went into godaddy and created a new one thinking perhaps the password was wrong (though I checked it three times).
Maybe this was my undoing: I looked at the Godaddy instructions for installing bbPress. They claim you should edit the bb_config file directly. So I put in the database info for the new database. The sticking point is always the host name which everyone defaults as ‘localhost’. But that doesn’t work with Godaddy. So I pulled the hostname from the Server variables and settings and put that in the quotes. I upped that and….
Now it is saying I have to edit a table prefix which I assume is this line:
$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’;
I really have no idea what would go here.
Any ideas??
Thanks for any help.

I also have this problem on the installation of BBPress. Please see below screen print-out.

Are tags that are not shown on the heat map still picked up by the search engines? I can only show 40 or so tags on the heat map.
Thanks.
I have tried twice now to install BBPress and for whatever reason it does not work. After going through the installation process, I get this message: “Forum could not be created!”
When I go to the address of where my forum should be, I get this message: ” Oh dear!
bbPress is already installed.
Perhaps you meant to run the upgrade script instead?”
When I click “upgrade script” nothing happens. Any advice?
edit: Nevermind, I did some voodoo and somehow it all worked.
Is it possible to make the letters in a topic heading bold? I tried using the tag<b> but it does not work. I am using Kakumei.
Thanks.
I’ve skinned up the BBPress Kakumei theme and am running into a layout issue that I can’t problem solve.
As you can see on this screenshot, the title “Latest Discussions” above the ‘Latest’ table is getting pushed to the right of my screen (i put in a red box to show the problem). On Safari it acually pushes the whole table as well.

I have scoured my html and css and am not expert enough to figure this out. Can anyone suggest how to resolve this?
Thank you very much
I really need a way to export posts from bbpress to punbb / fluxbb
can someone help me point to the right direction?
I am going to install a bbpress forums with my wordpress blog. I am trying to understand something.
I want to have the menu from my blog appear in my bbpress forums. My question is: Does this mean I have to do “deep integration” as described in the documentation on integration where it says:
“bbPress will not have access to WordPress’ functions unless you manually tell bbPress to load WordPress first. This integration step is also known as “deep” integration, “
Does my wanting to have the top menu from my blog appear on my bbpress forums fit into the category of “WordPress’ functions?” as described above?
