bbPress.org

Hi,

i want to integrate a link from my wordress blog to my forum. But how can i choose a Page slug? i can not find it ? Where is the option?

We are looking for a new bb-platform for our online community which has over 20.000 registered users and our phpBB has now 1,2 million posts on 52 forums. There are 30.000 new posts every month and about 1,2 million pageloads per week. In the rush hours there have been over 500 users online at the same time.

I find bbPress very interesting but will it be able to handle the load our bulletin board will have?

I currently have user data stored in the wordpress tables of my merged bbpress/wp site. Does anyone know how I can get that data in bbpress? Is there a function or a plugin? If not, would there be any problems if I did a MySQL query?

Hi all,

Lately, I been contemplating switching to BBpress from MyBB1.4 (http://www.mybboard.net/) . I am wondering if it is worth the move.

I compared the two here: http://www.forummatrix.org/compare/bbPress+MyBB

It seems to me that the main difference is there are more plugins I would have to install with BBpress whereas on MyBB they are included.

The reason I am considering the switch is because there seems to always be problems with plugins on MyBB, otherwise I am happy with it.

So I am wondering, how reliable/user-friendly is BBpress? More specifically, are plugins and other Mods relatively trouble-free to work with? and overall, is relatively easy to manage?

Of course, I understand this probably isn’t the best place to ask about this. I would appreciate it if you could keep your opinions as unbiased as possible.

On a similar note, is there anyone that switched over from MyBB? and if so, Why did you switch over?

Hi guys,

i want to have the same theme from WordPress in my bbpress forum. Therefore i add require_once('../wp-blog-header.php'); in my bb-config.php . Then i can load the bbpress forum but it have the old kakumei theme. What should i do ? Delete the last three lines from bb-config :

if  ( !defined('BB_PATH') )

define('BB_PATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/' );

require_once( BB_PATH . 'bb-settings.php' );

But then the forum doesnt knoe the bbpress functions. Can somebody please help me?

Thank you in advance.

Hello

I use Eblah SQL Beta 4 for a few forums and so far it hasn’t let me down over ANY of the major forum packages out there.

But I want a php forum for various reasons. Has anyone written a converter? Or is anyone willing to look at writing one?

You’d have a very greatful bloke right here if so.

I’ve spent two days trying to integrate BBPress Alpha 6 cookies with WPMU 2.7…… I’m not really wanting to do day three, is it against the rules to ask for paid help here? If not, I would love to give my money to be able to move on and actually get some work done! If it is against the rules… I’m sorry… couldn’t find anything regarding this and am kind of desperate

In it for the long haul with bbPress:

Hook me up with some link love please

Installed the alpha last night, hacked the theme all day today, my friends don’t even know it’s live yet.

Hi,

i need a User Role, who can not create Threads, but he can answer in threads. Is there a plugin for that or how to achieve that ?

Thanks in advance.

I’m on Media Temple, installing the alpha, I have the correct database name, username and password, here’s the error:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock’ (2) in /nfs/c02/h04/mnt/41093/domains/satnightspecials.com/html/bb-includes/backpress/class.bpdb.php on line 123

I solved this by editing that line 123. Go to MT’s “Server Guide: Overview” page and copy the “Internal Hostname” under the “Database” subheading, then edit line 123 to look something like this:

$this->dbh = mysql_connect(“internal-db.s41093.gridserver.com”, $user, $password, true);

Worked for me.
