ADD NEW goes to 404 for logged out users

Published on May 15th, 2009 by websydaisy

http://www.endsofearth.com/forum/

If you are logged in and click on ADD NEW, it works just fine. If you are not logged in, then instead of getting the message that they need to log in, it is putting up a 404.

It seems like whether you are logged in or not, it should just go to http://www.endsofearth.com/forum/?new=1 . . . if I go to that URL when I am not logged in, it gives me the appropriate message and link to log in. However instead it is attempting this for unlogged in users:

http://www.endsofearth.com/forum/bb-login.php?re=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.endsofearth.com%2Fforum%2F%3Fnew%3D1

which throws up the 404

I would appreciate any help. Thanks!

upgrading to RC1 breaks WP cookie sharing (for me).

Published on May 14th, 2009 by deadlyhifi

I had WP2.7.1 and bbPress1.06a working perfectly.

Now I’ve replaced 1.06a with RC1. Kept exactly the same settings (apart from a duplicate bbp database – which is identical in all but name). Same wordpress integration bumpf in the bb-config file.

Then I run the database upgrade. And it all works as expected apart from the cookie integration.

Logging in via WP does log me into bbP but I can’t log into WP unless I go through /wp-admin (cookies spat out by each login all correspond.)

Anyone else had a similar problem or offer a solution?

I have upgraded the bb-integration plugin in WP and if I switch back to the previous version of the forum it all works fine again. So I can only pressume something odd is happening in RC1.

User name looks like not UTF8

Published on May 14th, 2009 by

One of the users has set in WP a nickname in Cyrillic (which reads in place of the username in latin). In WP it shows up fine, however, when that user info read by BB it is displayed as ??????????. My guess is that it read from db utf8 but then it goes through single byte string function that kinda kills it. Any other parts of the posts, topics, body and such are read and displayed fine in Cyrillic. Thus it is my understanding that the user name gets de-utf8 somewhere in the process of maybe checking for its validity or something else.

The $collation_query is “SET NAMES ‘utf8’ COLLATE ‘utf8_general_ci'” in class.bpdb.php

Any idea where to start looking? I have what was the latest alpha.

What function reads users from WP db?

bbPress database error

Published on May 14th, 2009 by

bbPress database error: [Table ‘andreame_bbp01.wp_users’ doesn’t exist]

SELECT ID FROM wp_users WHERE user_login = ‘admin’

I tried following the integration steps properly.

WordPress Version: 2.6.5

BBpress Version: 0.9.0.4

My Regular WordPress login works.

If integration was successful wouldn’t it be the same login information for the BBpress?

How can i fix this?

WP/bb Intergration – WP Functions/Plugins

Published on May 14th, 2009 by

Hi

I am running WP 2.7.1 and bbPress 0.9.4 and have completed “deep” integration of the two (cookies, logins, users, wp functions).

A major component I use is a WP Plugin called “Featured Content Gallery” and I am trying to fuse it into bbPress. I have added the code and it *half works*. That is; none of the images, nor the description appear but oddly enough the title shows.

My question is then, has anyone actually done this? If so how OR Is it even possible?

WordPress MU 2.7.1 and bbPress 1.0-RC integration problem

Published on May 14th, 2009 by ndrwld

Hey,

I’ve a problem with bbPress integration with WPMU. All installation steps going fine. I enter cookie integration fields, the same database, use default prefix’es, but nothing solves the problem.

In 3 step of bbPress installation when I enter existing user “admin” in key master field it shows me an error – “The key master could not be created. An existing user was found with that user login.”. But even if I choose new user, forum installation ends fine but when trying to login, it redirects me to install wizard once again.

With single install (without integration) bbPress works fine.

please help: I am locked out of bbpress

Published on May 14th, 2009 by theindiansabroad

I have a functionla site at www.theindiansabroad.com using WP 2.7.1

Today I downloaded installed bbpress under www.theindiansabroad.com/forum and i was able to login and I received email with user and pwd info. as expected after the account was set.

The problem started right after I integrated bb to WP . I can login to wp but when I try to go to bb (/forum), it gives me a weird error at the top left corner. If I try to recover the pwd, it says email sent but I receive nothing…basically I cannot login.

The error format is

bbPress database error: [Table ‘XXX_forum.wp_users’ doesn’t exist]

SELECT ID FROM wp_users WHERE user_login = ‘host’

bbPress database error: [Table ‘XXX_forum.wp_users’ doesn’t exist]

SELECT * FROM wp_users WHERE user_login = ‘host’

The XXX_forum is my database and user name (and it is not wp_forum). the user name was host before the inegration. I cannot change my firsr part of database or username in MYSQL (from XXX to wp) as it is assigned by my hosting (justhost.com) company.

Could you please tell me how to fix this.

Thanks.

bbPress Attachments + Pretty permalink type

Published on May 13th, 2009 by

Hi,

I am having an issue with the bbPress Attachments plugin and Pretty permalink type, I have activated the name based pretty permalink type and installed the bbPress Attachments – it’s all good until I try and download a document. The document will not download. Changing the permalink type to none – resolves the issue. Can this be fixed with an amend to the .htaccess file? If so could someone enlighten me as to what that amend might be?

Thanks
