Hi there,
I have a request from a user on my forums. I am running word press and bb press together. The user has an old account and would like to merge her newer account with the old account. I have no idea how to do this in phpmyadmin. If someone could possibly give me a detailed way on how to do this, that would be great. I am somewhat a noob to phpmyadmin. I know how to change display name/user names in phpmyadmin, etc but I have not done much else.
Thanks,
Adam 
Is there any way to get the image address of the avatar.
What I mean is when I use bb_get_avatar( $user->ID) or post_author_avatar() I get the whole code like <img alt="" src="https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d415555f00b204cfr535327e?s=80&d=identicon&r=g" class="avatar avatar-80 avatar-noemail" style="height:80px; width:80px;" />
But all I need is the image address like https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d415555f00b204cfr535327e?s=80&d=identicon&r=g
is there a way to stick topic to front, but not stick it to top of that forum? thanks.
Howdy,
It doesn’t look like bbPress has an extensive library of plugins like Word Press. Is this really the best option for forums or should I consider Simple Press, which is what others recommend.
Also, does anyone know of a plugin that allows people to share posts via other social networking sites? Thanks all.
I’m working on a theme but having some trouble locating the profile menu. I’ve got a centered background with a fixed width and I’d like to move the profile in there but I can’t seem to find its location.
Could anyone point me in the right direction?

My problem is that only users without caps in “user_login” can post to the forum.
The first sign of the problem after pressing “Submit” is in “validate_auth_cookie()” in “class.wp-auth.php” (via “bb-auth()” in “bb-posts.php”).
Specifically, the call to “get_user()” around line 77 is returning false, exiting at line 288 in “class.wp-users.php” .
To cover some of the obvious questions:
– I have flushed cookies and tried this on multiple browsers
– I have inserted the lines into bb-config.php that were suggested by the WP bbPress integration plugin
– I have all the secret keys defined on both sides
– I have “define(‘WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION’, 1);” in bb-config.php
– I am using deep integration, but get the same result without it
– I get the same result with the standard bbPress theme
UPDATE: it really is about the caps. For user_nicename “reboot”…
– user_login = rebootzzz CAN post
– user_login = rebootZZZ can NOT post
– user_login = Reboot can NOT post
How to add a link to reset or recover password at my homepage of forum where there are input fields for username and password lies. MY site: http://vlovers.com/forum .. I want to add a link to recover password at the login form positioned at the top of content on front page by template-editing… I just want to know the php link command for reset password option..
Also I want to fix the width of posts to a lower limit i.e. width of the posts is adjusted according to the length of the posts but if the post contains just a few words, width of the post is one-lined which makes the look n structure unpleasing and distorting.. So what sort of css edits are required to fix the minimum width of posts ???
Just checked in a complete re-write of the forums component in BuddyPress. No more bbPress integration nightmares. Still work in progress.

I found some older posts about similar problems to this, but nothign that really helped, plus they were all for the 0.x versions and I am using 1.x which I am guessing may be different.
I have combined bbpress and wordpress databases (WP 2.
and all members have been set to inactive status. But I can’t find anything in Mysql to cause this, so can’t globally change them all to member status. They all seem to have the same bb_capabilities value as the couple of members who I have manually made to ‘member’ status, so that doesn’t help.
And I have thousands of members so manually changing them all through the admin interface seems to be a nightmare.
Can someone tell me what database fields to change to make a member to be a ‘member’ status please?
Thanks.
I’m running bbpress 1.0.1 and recently tried to install the Avatars Plugin. I followed the directions step-by-step, but whenever I click on the Avatars tab on the profile page I just get taken right back to the main forum page. I never even get the change to try and upload.
Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a fix?
Thanks!
