bbPress.org

I did a search for native gravatar threads, and I got nothing. The ones I found were about gravatar plugins, which I don’t use.

I want to change the size and style of the gravatar that is native to bbpress. I have 0.9.0.2.

How do I do this?

I’m about this close to making my new forums live. I’ve got WP 2.6 and bbPress alpha tied in together pretty well, but they recently announced the lockdown on 2.7, which means that may come out by years end.

Has anyone started testing with 2.7 yet? I’m not asking if I should not go forward and get my forums started, just wanted to know what kettle of worms I was opening

Hey,

Is it possible to load bbpress inside wordpress ?

I am using bbpress (latest from trunk) + wp2.6.2

I have designed a theme for wp2.6.2. And my wp2.6.2 has a lot of plugins. I wish to load bbpress into wordpress. Is it possible ?

Hello,

Cherry install of 1.0a2 on WP 2.6.2

COOKIEHASH fix in place.

Besides the ‘can only be logged into one app’ at a time issue’, which I’m fine with as it’s a known issue, my new install is twitching a bit.

I can not add a forum using the ‘add forum’ button (nothing happens). I can edit the original install forum’s description.

Is this a permissions thing on some ajaxy file or a `<IfModule mod_security.c>

<Files async-upload.php>

SecFilterEngine Off

SecFilterScanPOST Off

</Files>

</IfModule>` in .htaccess type of thing?

If relevant: PHP5, shared db, siteurl/forum/ installation.

Thanks

I have seen lots of posts with folks having trouble getting integration to work. I am on 2.6.1 and 1.0-alhpa-2 and I have everything working with no problems.

The one gotcha that I found that I have not seen mentioned: COOKIEHASH in the wp-settings.php file. It currently ships empty in WP, and probably most people left it blank like me:

define('COOKIEHASH', '' );

The hash is calculated in bb-settings.php:

define('BB_HASH', $bb->wp_cookies_integrated ? md5($bb->wp_siteurl) : md5($bb->uri));

Since bbPress is hardcoded to use an MD5 hash of the domain appended to all cookies (when you are integrating), you need to have the matching hash appended to your WP cookies.

The hash is added to the cookie to make it unique, like

wp_logged_in_user_3ffce08ac7419977b5ab9d68969a4cd0

To fix this to match bbPress, set it up like this in wp-settings.php:

define('COOKIEHASH', md5(get_option('siteurl')));

Or even better calculate it once to avoid the get_option overhead and hard code it.

define('COOKIEHASH', '3ffce08ac7419977b5ab9d68969a4cd0');

Bonus points for anyone who can guess the hash above. Yes, it’s md5 and one-way, but on this forum, the answer should be pretty obvious.

The form of the url passed to md5 should be ‘http://mysite.com’ with no trailing slash.

One more cool thing: I do not allow registration on the support forum, only through the main WP site. In order to enable posting in the forum from the moment of signup, add a plugin in you mu-plugins directory containing the following:

function enable_forum_new_user( $user_id )  {

update_usermeta($user_id, 'bb_capabilities', array('member' => true));

return;

}

add_action('wpmu_new_user', 'enable_forum_new_user');

Now your users can hit the forum and post the second they click their confirmation email. Cool, huh?

Is there such a plugin compatible with 1.0a? I specify the 1.0 as I’m using WP2.6 and have just ‘heard’ that the login issues have been resolved…

How do I remove the option ‘Add this topic to you favorites’ from the topic.php page?

I’ve been digging through the bbPress scripts for two days now –

but I just can’t seem to locate the code creating the html for this feature.

Please help, the bbPress Forum is awesome, but I really need to disable this feature.

I am a newbie please bare with me. I tried to install version 0.9.0.2

I cannot get those plugins working.

The first one i started with is “allow images”. Readme instructs me to put the “all image file. php” under “my-plugins” directory. I only have “pp-plugins” directory, so i created “my-plugins” directory and put that file under. But i cannot get it working.

Can anyone tell me what should i do?

I’m realizing how much I rely on the fact that WP has documentation of its hooks and template tags… without this info on BB, it is difficult to find how to do stuff.

I have an integrated installation of WP 2.6.2 + BB alpha 2.

I want to apply a different style to a posting/comment in my forums if it is written by a user who is an Author or higher in my WP user table. How do I check for this within BB? Inside BB, all of these WP users (my WP authors as well as standard WP users) are BB members… I do not want to give my WP authors BB moderator functionality. So can I check the WP role directly from the user table within BB?

I’d be glad if someone can help me put together a custom bbpress for a personal forum I’m starting.

I want a simple but beautiful theme with the discussion, categories and tags in separate tabs, I will also need few plugins.

It will be pretty straightforward and I can provide some example of what I want.

Please get in touch if you will be willing to help for a moderate fee.
