I think the default theme have a problem:

Conflict between Mime Type and Document Type

The document is being served with the text/html Mime Type which is not a registered media type for the XHTML 1.1 Document Type. The recommended media type for this document is: application/xhtml+xml

This is the error when i try to validate it for the w3c validator.

Why?

Is there a way to convert my SMF Forum users, passwords, threads, and board to wordpressbb?

or users from SMF to wordpress, or somthing? Thanks!

Hi,

I have the following code that works in wordpress:

<?php $homepage = get_settings('siteurl')."/search.php/";

global $wp;

$wp_received_argument = false;

foreach ($wp->query_vars as $k=>$v) if ($v) $wp_received_argument = true;

if ($wp_received_argument) require(TEMPLATEPATH . “/index.php”);

else { wp_redirect($homepage);

exit(); } ?>

Now this wont work in bbpress, so I’ve made some modifications:

<?php $homepage = bb_get_option( 'uri' )."/search.php/";

global $bb;

$bb_received_argument = false;

foreach ($bb->query_vars as $k=>$v) if ($v) $bb_received_argument = true;

if ($bb_received_argument) require(TEMPLATEPATH . “/index.php”);

else { bb_redirect($homepage);

exit(); } ?>

It now crashes at the foreach. What am I missing?

Thx

I’m logged in as the admin and when I click edit post a blank page appears not the form data? Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Hello: I do not know of a wpmu plugin to assist and my knowledge of the working of the db tables is limited (cannot succeed with SQL queries very well – always error).

Okay, that said. Initially I had WPMU db and added BBPress version 0.9.0.2 to the same DB – and all started out ok but then when I logged in (ADmin or otherwise) to BBPress, or “clicked” a forum link, the homepage of my wpmu blog showed up (http://teach-eng.com/wpmu and now also …com/bbpress).

YIKES NOTE: This same problem still persists when I click on a forum link

http://teach-eng.com/wpmu/bbpress/forum/1 (or any page link on the forum)…

Links only go to the WPMU blog and not stay with the forum at

http://teach-eng.com/wpmu/bbpress/#

So I reinstalled (having already reinstalled bbpress into the WPMU subfolder) BBpress using a different DB – same subfolder via ftp – and all is ok – I just changed/added the “integration” for wp settings with BBPress.

Now what? Well, this install was an ‘opt-out’ for using RS Discuss since I could not work well with the tables in phpAdmin for features to allow settings to show up on the backend.

Okay, so my question – How to create a working blog page in WPMU rather than “loading” BBPress with WPMU (have read on forum this is not a great idea and my webhost is not strong, easily creates 404 errors)…

I could I understand, create a “new template” in WPMU but how would I “embed” or “call up” the BBPress pages for the forums?

I could make separate pages for each forum (separate installs) with BBPress but for me it is ok to have one forum, different topics.

But, even with one BBPress forum, I can only create a page link as is in WPMU and would rather have a better way of showing the forum for each blog (there are 3 now)…

Can someone assist?

How to create a page in WPMU and use the BBPress so when a blogger clicks a “subpage” they will see the BBPress forum? I did set it up already so when a WPMU user logs into BBPress it will use their ID from WPMU (have not tested it yet,but nothing failed).

Okay, thanks for any help.

Similar posts have been made about this subject, and I’ve read the documentation, but no matter what I do I can’t get the cookies to work. I’m sure you hate working with newbies like me because we’re always like, “gah, i can’t get anything to work” but, please, I don’t want to keep tweaking it because I don’t want to mess anything up… One solution here at this forum says to go into the wp_settings.php file and change something… do things like that have be to done, or is there an easier way? By the way, I did actually do that… I went into the wp_settings and changed that cookie_domain line from false to ‘.myurl.com’, if you know what I’m talking about… well, that tweak didn’t work for me either.

I just want to be able to log into my blog, then go to my forum and still be logged in. Or log into my forum and go to my blog and still be logged in, then also be able to successfully log out from either location.

I put

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ”);

define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/’);

in my wp config and it is also in my bb press config.

Now, some posts here say that for the cookie_domain, you have to actually put your domain, like:

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.myurl.com’);

is this true?

If someone has the time and successfully has cookies working properly between their wordpress blog and bbpress forum, could you help me out?

I’ve stayed up many nights trying to get this to work just right… it’s sad Whats weird is, when I first did the integration it worked BUT I couldn’t log out, so since then I’ve been changing things to fix that, but now, I’m back to square one. I can log into my forum. then, I can log into blog, and I can log out of both with the same username and password, but again, if I log into one and go to the other, I’m not logged in.

I’ve just seen a few different posts and all the posts recommend doing different things. Then the actual documentation of course just says to use the built in integration feature in bbpress, which I used. Since there are so many different posts offering different solutions, can any one give me a step by step fix for this?

Hello,

a update system for plugins is scheduled or not?

bye,

Fred

I don’t kn0w if this is proper or not to ask for plug-ins… but, here I go…

I think it would be nice to have a “Parental Advisory” plugin. I have the “censor” plugin (maybe it could be added to the censor plugin by someone)… basically anytime a post is made with certain bad words in it, either an icon, or just the words “parental advisory” automatically show up next to the post’s title. Or, parental advisory is kinda of long to put along with a title, maybe it can just say 18+, for example

[18+] The topic’s title

That way it’s letting people know that this post may contain content only suitable for people 18 or older.

Any thoughts?

I’ve been looking for forum software that meets my needs, and it looks like bbPress is going to be it. One small piece I’m not sure of yet: is it possible through a plugin, or CSS, or something, to support threaded comments? The example sites I’ve looked at so far have all comments at the left margin, and I prefer nested indents to keep track of threads.

Hello,

I was looking for a way to limit moderators in some way to only have moderation powers on specific forum/s. I have a forums where I need to have a set of moderators have access to only moderate a few forums and not every forum on the site. I did some searching and couldn’t find anything in the forums or plug ins that did this task. Is this something that could be handled by being able to add more roles, and then custom define the abilities of those roles? Thanks for your time, I look forward to hearing back from the community on this.
