bbPress.org

Hi,

I have integrated WordPress and bbPress. They both share the same table for users. I can login in to a user in the database from both WordPress and bbPress. SO they are correctly sharing the same user table. However, when I login as a user for the blog and then click on the forum then click to post in the forum it asks me to log in. I imagine it has something to do with cookies. I have gone through the docs on integration and the post by _CK_ but nothing has made it work yet.

Please help me identify the problem. If you want I can post the config files for both WordPress and bbPress.

Almost have a plugin ready that will add a field to registration and profile edit pages.

However, the only part I can’t get working is inserting the data into the database at registration. I can add it at profile edit stage.

I use ‘bb_update_usermeta’ as the hook when editing profile.

What hook is available to insert data at registration time?

I might be asking too much at this early stage …

* We need *all* user registrations to be approved by admin or a moderator.

* New users should have posting permissions in BBPress, but not the WordPress it is integrated with (unless those permissions have been explicitly granted by admin).

* Posting permissions in WordPress are granted by admin only after seeing evidence that the user is both responsible and competent to do so.

* It is easy to require admin approval of new WordPress users, but we would prefer all registrations to be through BBPress (there is no ‘register’ link on our WordPress).

Right now we are using WordPress 2.7, so we don’t have full integration yet. But it would be nice to think we might be able to work with our users in this way eventually.

Lately I’ve been having problems with people signing up just to include some spammy sites with their profile. I want to remove the Website field altogehther from the Registration form. I don’t know how to do this – I looked in the register.php file but couldn’t find the line I should remove (I tried removing <?php do_action(‘extra_profile_info’, $user); ?> but nothing happens. Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks.

Do you think is it possible disable login for subscriber and the registration form of wordpress and use only bbpress for login/registration/edit profile ? i don’t have bbpress installed at the moment, but i don’t want two registration form, two login form, a wp panel and the edit profile of bbpress.

thanks

Hiya,

I’ve come across a problem – i’m having to pick between the flash upload bug in 2.5 RC1 and the fact that cookies don’t work for the RC1+ wp integration.

can anyone help me resolve this? how are people dealing with this? I’m not averse to hacking a solution either way if necessary.

i need to use WP/BBpress on a heavily customised client based implementation so am guessing that the alpha implementation with 2.7 isn’t the way to go?

Thanks

Dan

Why don’t succeed delete user?

If click on DELETE USER I get ALERT and click on OK.

But I directed on Profile user!!

This is a bug?

Both in 1.0a6 and from trunk I get the problem that updating website info on a profile doesn’t “take” i.e. it doesn’t show in the profile page after you update it.

Appreciate if this could be fixed. Thanks.

Several month ago, Google started showing special meta data in search results for popular forums like vBulletin and phpBB, like how many posts in a topic, the last date of the last post, etc.

Unfortunately since every forum type is different, younger forum types were left out, including bbPress. I tried to find the right person to contact at Google to help them add bbPress, but to no avail.

However I was very pleased to notice tonight that Google is suddenly showing meta info for sites using bbPress forums!

Here is a search example:

Here is a highlighted snapshot in case you have no idea what I am taking about:

It’s only working on a handful of sites using bbPress at the moment but hopefully that will grow and this is a very good sign.
