bbPress.org

Hi

Does anyone know the whereabouts of any creative commons licenced terms and conditions that can be used/adapted to be used in conjunctioun with bbpress? Just generic stuff like “Don’t spam, Don’t harrass other users … etc

I’m using BBPress 1.0 alpha and working on a new theme almost completely from scratch.

I have added the post_form() function to my front-page.php template file as I want to allow people to start a new topic direct from the home page.

Naturally, this requires people to be able to select a target forum for their post and the post-form.php template contains the bb_new_topic_forum_dropdown() function which is supposed to show the drop down list, however for some reason it doesn’t appear. The code around it shows ok, so it’s not a problem with the if statement that checks if we’re on the homepage or not…

So… is that a bug in BBPress that needs to be submitted to trac or am I doing something that I shouldn’t be doing?

Well I tried to integrate bbpress with my wordpress theme and I after calling wp functions by adding

require_once('/wamp/www/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php')

I realized that I had no settings link on the bbpress dashboard. I removed that line and the link appeared again but no theme integration.

BBPress as wp plugin for 1.0 final is too much asking, isn’t it?

I installed bbpress in MySQL5. Install went fine. Now I get the following error when I go to my bbpress url:

Warning: bb_load_template(/home/greenpre/public_html/discussion/bb-templates/kakumei/front-page.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/greenpre/public_html/discussion/bb-includes/template-functions.php on line 17

Please help.

Thank you!

First, every time I go to BBpress.org I get happy because you all do amazing work.

I am struggling to set up a few different things on my forum.

The forum can be found on www.proveit4cash.com/bbpress

Here are the 2 things I want:

1. Post Counts for each individual (ie. Member has 150 posts) both somewhere in there profile and next to each post.

2. I need help figuring out how to set up restrictions on Forums.

I have 3 forums.

I want 1 to be open to everyone to start threads and to post.

I want 1 to be open to any member to start threads and post

I want 1 to be open to only admin to start threads and only a certain member class to reply.

i have downloaded bbpress and uploaded files to server.

on the first step, where it asks for database name, username and password, the username and password are correctly filled in already. when i manually fill in the db name “forum” i get this error:

“There was a problem connecting to the database you specified.

Please check the settings, then try again.”

I have read through the forums and not found anything that works…

.

I am trying to install on an add-on domain (www.roninbrush.com/forum) and as per other help threads I have tried reinstalling one level up, as well as on the main user domain (guysunderpressure.com). none of which worked

in another thread it said to fill in the db host with something similar to:

mysql.roninbrush.guysunderpressure.com rather than localhost.

this did not work either.

i’m sure i’ve missed something incredibly simple, but it’s beyond me. any help you could give me would be much appreciated.

also listed below are the perl and php connection strings (if that helps at all)

Perl

$dbh = DBI->connect(“DBI:mysql:guysu2_forum:localhost”,

“guysu2_bradford”,”<PASSWORD HERE>”);

PHP

$dbh=mysql_connect (“localhost”, “guysu2_bradford”,

“<PASSWORD HERE>”) or die(‘Cannot connect to the database because: ‘ . mysql_error());

mysql_select_db (“guysu2_forum”);

I installed my bbpress and all works fine, but then added a “secret key” to the config.php file after all was installed. It still works fine, but is that OK? Is my secret key doing what it is supposed to?

I installed the bbpress today but whenever i try to login, i receive a blank screen and i cant login. Please help me. my forum site is www.pimpsymbian.com/pimpforum

I have a strange error. I’m running 1.0, however it may not be solely an issue caused by 1.0. I’ve noticed that whenever the line “require(‘/var/www/html/wp-blog-header.php’); ” is in my config file, the new topic/ post form will not display. On the topic listings and in threads it will simply have the header (eg: New Topic in this Forum) and nothing below it and accessing the new topic page directly just returns a white blank page.

For reference, my board is http://www.audioscribbler.co.uk/boards and I currently have the line in my config so you can see the new topic issue. Obviously this kills any chance of integration until this is resolved.

Thanks

I had my WordPress installed by fantastico automatically. Therefore, the AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, and LOGGED_IN_KEY were all different. When bbPress asked me for the SECRET_KEY, I put in the key for AUTH_KEY. Now, integration didn’t work. So…I removed all bbPress tables from the database and changed all the KEYS so that they are the same. I tried installed bbPress again and it still didn’t integrate users. The installation of bbPress says that integration works, but in reality, it didn’t. What do I do now?

*By the way, my wordpress is running fine and I’m not willing to unistall it or delete its database.
