bbPress.org

I have just set up WPMU with BuddyPress and BBPress. When I try to post a test message to a group from BuddyPress, I get “There was an error posting that topic.” I have followed all the instructions in the set-up. Can anyone give me any ideas about what is going wrong?

Hi,

I’m an old school computer person and feel it is very sloppy to display application subdirectories on your host site.

I’ve succesfully masked the URI of my WordPress 2.2 site to remove the ./wordpress/ subdirectory. I would like to be able to do the same thing with bbPress.

Is there a way to mask the bbpress subdirectory?

Thanks,

Amy

Hi there,

Another question for someone! So I figured out how to add last poster and first poster to a post. However I have the pages separated for the forums. Example:

Main theme — topics — freshness

section one 4,000 2 days

section two etc etc

You have to click each section to view the posts in that section. However the last poster and freshness show properly in the actual sections but not on the main theme.

I want the freshness column to show (3 mins, 2 mins etc ) on the main section as well as for each thread (it already shows for each thread but not on the main theme). Also when I add freshness like normal, it makes every section say the same thing (1 day, 2 days etc). Also when I add topic_last_poster, it just shows the same person posted for every section).

If you need to see what I am specificly talking about check it out:

http://www.ghostdroppings.com/bbpress/

See the main theme on that page. I need the column that says freshness to actually display who posted last in that section. But its not properly saying who posted last, I even posted in a section and the last poster didn’t change. I was hoping to combine them, (Name) Posted 12 mins ago or 3 days ago. If I can’t get the (posted 12 mins ago) I at least want the accurate person who posted last in that section.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Ps, I know there is this plugin https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-last-poster/

However when I activate it, the bbpress forums won’t load at all. It totally freezes it up. I am using 9.0.4

Hi,

I’m looking for a way to prevent direct access to the bbPress system from the outside. I have some user communities and I would like to have the users sign onto the WordPress site, then access the BBS only from there. This way, the users would be forced to undergo SSL authentication and then access the BBS as a new window from a Page entry at the top of the site. (PS. I’m trying to do the same thing with phpFreeChat as well.)

Once they are logged on, they don’t need to keep their WP session alive (at least for now).

Is this something that is possible?

Thanks,

Amy

Hey.

I was clearing my test forums on my bbPress install, I deleted all forums and when I try to load my forums I get this message;

Oh dear!



Please complete your installation before attempting to include WordPress within bbPress



bbPress is already installed.



Perhaps you meant to run the upgrade script instead?

What on earth has gone wrong? All I have done is deleted forums?

Thanks.

Does this plugin work?

Is this possible? This is what developer said that plugin shuts down and then forum posting cannot be viewed. Have to go in and reactivate plugin to make forum work. Also I cannot activate plugins saying that it is activated at the top but not in the list where it remains as deactivated. I am using the latest version of 0.9.

Hi,

How can I number the topics displayed in the Latest Discussion section?

I know that by adding this code:

<?php if( $topic->forum_id == 9 ) { ?>

I get to choose which forum topics will be shown ONLY. I just want to know what exactly I should add so I can decide by giving a number which section will have how many number of topics.

Thanks.

Hi all,

A little patience please. I’m trying to uninstall bb press to prepare for a fresh install to make the intigration with BuddyPress easier.

I’ve removed the bbpress folder. And now I’m ready to delete the database tables. I just need to know if I should delete ALL the tables with the “bb_” prefix, or if I should keep some in place.

I’ve read advice from a key master not to delete bb_meta and bb_posts.

I’m running WPMU 2.8.1 and the site is www.threesheetsnorthwest.com

Thanks for the help.

is there a way (plugin?) to insert a post at the beginning of the thread by the administrator/moderator? thanks.
