bbPress.org

Hi, I’m attempting to install bbpress on Windows Server 2003 Ent SP2, IIS6, MySQL 5.1.34 community, PHP 5.2.9-2:

I have followed this guide to installing & configuring PHP: http://www.peterguy.com/php/install_IIS6.html

Step 1 – bb-config.php succeeds

Step 2 – skipping wordpress integration as don’t have this installed

On clicking Goto Step 3, the installation doesn’t get anywhere and the browser returns:

“Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Most likely causes:

You are not connected to the Internet.

The website is encountering problems.

There might be a typing error in the address. “

Any help please?

I have a website on which WPMU is installed. I downloaded BuddyPress & installed it. I went to set up a group & I was told to download & install bbPress. So I did.

I originally installed it in the bbPress folder, and I went through the install process. Then I decided I wanted the folder to be named forums, so I ended up deleting the bbPress folder. I used phpMyAdmin to remove the bbPress tables from my WordPressMU database. Then I created a forums folder, copied bbPress into it & went through the setup process again. Everything completed with no errors.

I set up the integration of database & cookies with WordPressMU. No errors were reported.

I can go into the one forum that the install process created & I can read it. Haven’t tried adding any posts to it or replying to the one post it created. I did, however, try going into the Admin page. It won’t open. I just keep getting sent back to http://churchonhigherground.org/forums/.

Any ideas?

Hello,

I was wondering if someone can point me in the right direction. Though I am a webmaster, marketing is my forte and cutting code is quite foreign to me but I get by.

Have the members_online.php plugin installed and though I like to see who’s been online today, I don’t want potential advertisers seeing that information or indeed forum members as it can provide a distorted view of site traffic stats.

Here is the snippet of code from the front-page.php file which generates the summary on the forum front page.

<div id="useronline">

<h3><?php _e('ONLINE TODAY'); ?></h3>

<p><?php do_action('members_online_today',''); ?></p>

</div>

Can someone please tell me what to do to make that output visible only to admins?

Thank you in advance

Is there a way to show a snippet of the post (limit 200 characters) under the topic title on the front page? I tried putting in “<?php post_text(); ?>” but nothing showed up. Any ideas?

When I try to install bbPress I get the error message:

“The plugin does not have a valid header”.

I choose ”Plugins” / ”Add New” in my admin panel.

Then I choose upload and click on the bbpress-1.0.1.zip file and install now

Here I get the following message:

“Unpacking the package. Installing the plugin. Plugins installed successfully. ”

When I then click on Activate Plugin do I get the message “The plugin does not have a valid header.”

I’m using WPMU and body press.

Can anyone help me?

Sincerely,

Carsten

Hi!

First of all, sorry for my bad english… I try to explain my intention as good as i can.

I tried to show this ” | ” before or after a php tag in my own template. For example my post.php contains this code

<div class="poststuff"><?php printf( __('Posted %s ago'), bb_get_post_time() ); ?> <a href="<?php post_anchor_link(); ?>">Permalink</a> <?php post_ip_link(); ?> <?php post_edit_link(); ?> <?php post_delete_link(); ?></div>

What i want is that e.g. before <?php post_ip_link(); ?> is displayed the above mentioned character. If i insert it before the php tag it also displayed to “normal users”. Normally the ip link is only displayed for admins. And so i´d like to see the | only as admin.

The output for normal users should look like this: Posted 38 minutes ago | Permalink

The output for admins should look like this: Posted 38 minutes ago | Permalink | 127.0.0.1 | Edit | Delete

If i add this “|” manually before the tags, for normal users it looks like this: Posted 38 minutes ago | Permalink | | |

Any ideas how this can be done?

Hi,

i’ve installed WP (not mu) 2.8.1 and bbPress 1.0.1 with user and cookie integration, users work without problem but the cookie not.

i’ve installed the bbpress integration plugin added the code to my wp-config.php but nothing change… the key are checked, i really don’t know how to resolve this… please help me… thanks!

_ck_ and others were helpful in describing how to get Gravatars to display on the front page (works like a charm)

Show (gr)avatar on frontpage

What about getting Identicons, Wavatars and MonsterIDs to appear along with Gravatars on the front page?

(The Identicons, Wavatars and MonsterIDs show up inside posts, but they don’t want to show up on the front page using the method linked to.

Any thoughts?

I’d like to show the number of comments that a topic has. How would I go about doing this?

Thanks in advance.

Hello, I’m using wordpress + bbpress integrated and I want that the user profile page (for example, when you click on the profile in the comments) was the one for them both, preferably the WP profile page. Is there any plugins which makes this possible or may be someone could say how to do it, i think it’s not so difficult.

Thank you and sorry for my english.
