bbpress and memcache?

Published on August 14th, 2009 by usera

Can someone tell me what’s the status with bbpress and memcache? I see backpress is meant to unify memcache in both installations but is there a working beta to get both working? I currently using version two of the object-cache on my wordpress and unfortunately i suppose that is what is causing the problem with the bbpress integration plugin. Any clues or more info?

Thank you.

WordPress.org forum theme

Published on August 13th, 2009 by Mooks

Hi There,

I was looking into bbpress, but I hadn’t really seen any themes that caught my attention with the exception of the theme at the following:

https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/forum/5

In my opinion, it is the simplest and cleanest of all themes I’ve seen. Is there a theme like this available for download? Most of the other bbpress themes I’ve seen look too busy and cluttered, and prefer the simple and clean look of the aforementioned.

Thanks in advance for replies.

Kin Kakumei (Gold Kakumei)

Spent quite a few days on this, sitting up from morning till late night. It’s a forum for my website about the late Michael Jackson. You could call it the official fanclub for Norway. I do, since I have a kickass domain.

Main color is golden (yellow-orange) links are darkred.

Using CSS3 from the future, all boxes, buttons, posts, inputs have rounded corners.

I removed all borders from the original Kakumei, since I thought that looked too messed up. I also made “Add new” button much more visible. Since this very button is the key to a growing forum. What do you all think?

Internet Explorer and Safari don't like round corners, why?

Published on August 13th, 2009 by Marius-

I use a code in my theme in many places. This is to make the corners on boxes round. It’s this one here:

-moz-border-radius-bottomleft:6px;
-moz-border-radius-bottomright:6px;
-moz-border-radius-topleft:6px;
-moz-border-radius-topright:6px;

IE don’t read it at all. So everything is square and sharp. Strange thing is, Safari on my Mac, only applies it for my Postwindow, but nowhere else. So one box is round, and the rest is square.

Mozilla Firefox however, reads this code perfectly, and applies it to everything I’ve assigned this code to. So the forum looks best in Firefox, but is there a way I can make it look as good in the other browsers too?

Installation Failed Halfway Through

Published on August 13th, 2009 by gregfielding

Help! My install failed halfway through. It asked me to manually re-define some integration fields (which were already correct). The message on the screen was that the install failed.

Now, when I go back to the forum, I get redirected to the install.php and this message appears:

“Oh dear!

bbPress is already installed.

Perhaps you meant to run the upgrade script instead?”

How do I re-install?

Installing bbpress into a database with wordpress already on it.

OK should be simple right? Worked when I did it locally using MAMP and all was fine, then going live uploaded and …. nothing just the ‘ERROR: Could not establish a database connection’ message.

WP is installed in the main directory and bb press is in lalala.com/forum

I’ve gone over the wp-config files and they are the same, any ideas guys?

// ** MySQL settings for BB** //

define( ‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘lalalala_live’ );

define( ‘BBDB_USER’, ‘barry’ );

define( ‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ‘****’ );

define( ‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’, ‘0.0.0.0’ );

define( ‘BBDB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’ );

define( ‘BBDB_COLLATE’, ” );

$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’;

// ** MySQL settings for wordpress ** //

define(‘WP_CACHE’, true); //Added by WP-Cache Manager

define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘lalalala_live’); // The name of the database

define(‘DB_USER’, ‘barry’); // Your MySQL username

define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘****’); // …and password

define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘0.0.0.0’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);

define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);

$table_prefix = ‘wp_’;

WP integration

Hey everyone ..

I installed wp 2.7.1 French version (Last version compatible with a plugin I need)

I’m wondering, which version of BBpress with French package I may use for an easy integration …?

thanks.

"Deep" integration with theme only

Published on August 13th, 2009 by nickf1195

Hi.

I am in the process of integrating bbPress with only my WordPress theme, not login or cookies. I have placed this in bb-config.php:

<br />
if ( !defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {<br />
include_once( '../wp-config.php' );<br />
}<br />

and this in bbpressbb-templateskakumeiheader.php:

<br />
get_header();<br />
echo_css(); // function from WP theme's functions.php<br />

The WordPress header loads, but some of the CSS isn’t present from the WordPress theme when I don’t have echo_css(); in the code. The CSS is produced by the WordPress theme’s functions.php, which doesn’t appear to be loading. I can call functions from functions.php inside bbPress, including the one that outputs the CSS, but it is placed at the wrong point in the code (inside the body tag instead of head,) even though I run it immediately after get_header();. I would also like it to be flexible in the event I change the theme.

So my question is: Is there a function inside WordPress to process the functions.php? Should I be in the WordPress forum?

Thanks a lot for your time and help!

Important update for bbpress seo tools

Published on August 13th, 2009 by Olaf Lederer

While this plugin is not available on the bbpress site, I post this information here to reach as many user as possible:

Just noticed that the old version of the bbpress SEO pluging doesn’t work with the current bbpress version (1.02).

Because the old method to handle and meta keywords stopped working we did a quick update.

This is a required update for user of bbpress 1.x!

Using the old version with bbpress 1.x will result in loosing rankings search engine result pages!

What is changed:

  • We fixed the code that is responsable for the meta keywords and the “noindex” option.
  • Optimizations of the admin page (information, spellcheck).

Download the new version here:

Login-form including register-form?

Published on August 13th, 2009 by Marius-

Is this possible?

When a new potential user browses the forum, he sees my button to “Add new” thread. He presses it, and it takes him to the login form. He has no username, so he must register. But the link to register is so fucking small and hidden up in the corner. Can the register form be included on the bottom of the login form, as an alternative?
