Hi there,

Its amazing how much these forums have helped through reading about other people’s problems and solutions. I was able to get everything with integration working perfectly (albeit several installs later), but there has been one problem that I haven’t been able to find a direct answer for (maybe I am just using the wrong keywords to search).

What I am trying to do is have all the bbPress login/registration get directed to the WordPress (WPMU) login/registration pages. I am running RPX for login/registration at the WPMU page, and it has worked flawlessly for OpenID integration, but I can’t find a way to make all the bbPress goodness get directed to WPMU and then back to my forums.

Thanks ahead of time!

Upgrade from 0.9.0.4 to 1.0.2 is pretty good but “content 2” in 1 box not upgrade… see picture. http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/4599/bbpress102.png

Topics, tags created on bbPress 1.0.2 many…

Hey, is there a BBpress vector logo available to incorporate into custom themes, in the footer?

Hey guys,

I’m in the process of building a BBpress theme under the GPL license. I was wondering if it’s possible to include a theme options page (in the bb-admin section) for my theme, similar to WordPress themes. The idea being that users could add/edit about text/footer text without editing core files.

Any ideas/feedback would be appreciated.

Hi, I want to change the time and date format to Dutch. I saw this code for it

‘<?php topic_time(); ?>`

in post.php:

` <?php printf(__(‘Posted %s ago’,’rag’), bb_get_post_time()); ?> <a href=”<?php post_anchor_link(); ‘

Hi, I succeed to migrate from fluxbb to bbpress.

here are the queries I used. There are no explanations but maybe it will help you.

I made this by duplicating the tables fluxbb_forums,fluxbb_topics & fluxbb_posts in my bbPress database.

DON’T FORGET TO BACKUP BOTH TABLES BEFORE DOING ANYTHING !

For each table I deleted some fields and rename them to match bbpress structure, and at the end I import the datas in the right bbpress table.

Do the queries one at time so you can check if there are errors.

I didn’t made anything on the users table as it’s integrated with WP on my website.

To give back a WP user its fluxBB posts; do this

UPDATE bb_posts SET poster_id=NEW_WP_USERID WHERE poster_id=OLD_FLUXBB_USERID;

UPDATE bb_topics SET topic_poster=NEW_WP_USERID WHERE topic_poster=OLD_FLUXBB_USERID;

When done, don’t forget to recount everything (posts, etc). in the admin panel.

I’m sorry but sometimes less is just less. I looked forward to having a lite integrated forum, but it doesn’t look like bbPress is ready for that.

Saying bbPress can be integrated with WordPress is like saying your seat can be used as a flotation device.

The fact this site isn’t integrated should have been a tip off.

If you are looking for anything beyond just cookie integration good night and good luck.

Sure, theme integration can be done via some costly hacks, but its the simple stuff that has my head spinning. Something simple like a bbPress login box in WordPress is more complicated and less likely than Mideast peace.

I just don’t get it….

It seems like all the “social cms” resources and ideas are being put into Buddypress. Can’t we have some of those basic features in the single WP install?

WP-United for phpbb has these features. Why is it so hard for bbPress?

Don’t get me wrong, the people supporting BB here in this forum are great. Problem is there just are not enough of them to fill in the big gaps created at inception.

Sorry for the rant. I still would love to use bbPress, I hope one day soon they will fulfill its promise. Until then:

I have problem in displaying utf8 characters from wp_usermeta. My bbPress 0.9 installation is integrated with WordPress 2.7 and uses wp_users and wp_usermeta tables from WordPress.

I use this hack to display information about user that is stored in WordPress built-in fields like first_name and last_name on profiles page. Also I use bb_get_usermeta function to print that data below username on topic page.

As you can see in this screenshot, wp_usermeta uses utf8_general_ci and on this screenshot you can see that values are correctly saved in fields. But on bbPress pages those utf8 characters are not displayed correctly. Also on profile editing page in bbPress, those characters are also nnot displayed correctly.

Finally, on topic page, you can see that utf8 from usermeta is also not displayed correctly.

Note that my registration is handled through WordPress since I redirect bbPress registration page to WordPress one, and on WordPress users fill their profile info, where everything is shown normally.

Also to note that utf8 characters in topic titles and posts are displayed correctly.

One strange thing I spotted is that if user edit it’s profile on bbPress profile editing page, and replace those question marks with correct characters, after that those characters would display normally on bbPress.

So my question is why is this happening and how to solve it?

Thanks in advance

When I first switched on Gravatars, and selected a gravatar from gravatar.com, things looked great.

Until I tried to change it a few days ago. I uploaded a new one and selected it, but BBPress insists on showing the old gravatar! I’ve even gone so far as to delete my original gravatar from gravatar.com; it still shows the old one! What’s going on??

I have a bbPress install which is sharing user tables and cookies with WordPress.

I’m trying to create a link in bbPress which will allow my users to log out using the WordPress logout page, To do this I think I need to make a nonce in bbPress which WordPress will recognise. So far my attempts have failed. I’ve aligned the salts, hashes and keys in wp-config.php and bb-config.php.

Any suggestions?
