bbpress redirection issue

Published on June 26th, 2008 by

I integrate bbpress with WP successfully, but after I move the bbpress subfodler into WP subfolder, when I browse the new url of bbpress, it redirects me to the original.

I think it’s related to config file, but not sure how to fix it

Installation problem – database name

Published on June 26th, 2008 by

Yes, yes, newbie, here. Sorry about that before anyone bumps me or deletes me for duping or just raises their eyebrows and walks swiftly on. I have used google and other searches frequently. But I still can’t work out this database name, database user and password issue. I have copied the unzipped files into website.com/htdocs/blog1 where NetworkSolutions put WordPress for me. So now BBpress sits at the same level as WordPress. Is that right?

Now I have copied the values from the WP_config file (did it make those up on install?) but I still get “There was a problem connecting to the database you specified. Please check the settings, then try again.” I’m surprised these bear no relation to my actual WordPress password and user name.

I haven’t changed any settings from WordPress since I installed it. Is there a permissions issue?

Thanks (please)

Security issues?

Published on June 26th, 2008 by prathik

I have never been hacked while using it but after reading about the recent security issues with WordPress 2.3 and script kiddies hacking those sites, I have to make sure that its completely safe. Were you ever hacked while using bbpress on your website. Thanks for your opinion and views.

Warnings after moving previously working BBpress install

Published on June 26th, 2008 by

I have been experiencing the following issue after moving my install from a staging server:

Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, ‘bb_template_scripts’ was given in /home/tdsegvth/public_html/thepoolparties/bb-includes/wp-functions.php on line 586

I have tried disabling all plug-ins, combing through the code to figure out what it could possibly be, and doing everything I can imaging to the database. The entire setup seems to be working perfectly aside from that error.

Obviously the site can’t go live until this is fixed, so any suggestions would be appreciated.

You can see the site here: http://thepoolparties.jellynyc.com/

The version that isn’t experiencing the error is here: http://thepoolparties.wearefamiliar.com/

Thanks for any help!

Latest Discussions on sidebar for all pages

Published on June 25th, 2008 by Krystian

Hi.

First of all, thanks a ton for all the hard work that you guys have done making our live easier. I apologies if there is other discussion about this issue (I did a search and didn’t find an answer).

I’m integrating my WordPress blog with BBpress forums and I would like to have the Latest Discussions list in the sidebar for all pages. I already put it in the blog with a WP pluging, now I’m trying to put it in the forum.

I tried copy and paste the code from front-page.php to sidebar.php. It works fine when I’m in the front page, but disappears when I enter in a topic or other page.

So, could you give me a clue, a code or a pluging I can use to have this done???

Any help is appreciate. Thanks.

Bozo deletion

Published on June 25th, 2008 by

Apologies if this has been raised before…

I get a lot of bogus registrations (don’t we all?) that are marked as ‘bozo’. It would be great to have a check box alongside each one so they could all be deleted in one action, rather than having to go round the loop of admin, users, bozos, edit, delete; admin, users, bozos etc etc for each one.

WP Integration: can’t access Admin section

Published on June 25th, 2008 by Christiaan

I thought I’d jumped through all the hoops; I’ve managed to get everything integrated on the front end but when I go to access the forum admin section now I get a blank page.

Since being able to access the forum admin section I’ve changed <?php bb_get_header(); ?> to <?php get_header(); ?> in the bbPress theme files, moved require_once('../wp-blog-header.php'); up to the top of my config file.

If I remove require_once('../wp-blog-header.php'); from my config file I can access the admin section.

Any ideas?

Plugin Request – RSS Feed Import

Published on June 25th, 2008 by SteveFree

Hi,

I want to convert from my phpBB forum to bbPress however I need 1 more plugin to make it happen.

I need a Plugin for bbPress which will monitor RSS feed’s and post new items into bbPress as a post.

Does anyone know of a free plugin which does this today?

For WordPress, I’m using the Plugin – FeedWordpress

URL – http://projects.radgeek.com/feedwordpress/

It works great and has many great options. Hopefully something exists for bbPress.

Thanks!

Users Able To Edit Posts [HACK] Need Help

Published on June 25th, 2008 by

Users on my forum are able to use the following url to edit posts:

http ://www.cairoshell.com/forum/edit.php?id=

How do I fix this? I suspect this is an available bug in every bbPress forum.

where is my bb-admin ?

Published on June 25th, 2008 by

I install a WP2.5.1 and then trying to integrate bbpress with it.

but mayde due to permission issue, there is error when installing, so I manaually modified bb-config.php according to related document.

but after integration, bbpress admin panel disappeared, even I login as admin and then manually type the bb-admin url, it redirects me to bb-press main page.

Some part of bb-config.php as below, I think it is possiblly the cause(P.S. db prefix for bb is bb_ , db prefix for WP is wp251_):

// If you are running multiple bbPress installations in a single database,

// you will probably want to change this.

$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please!

$bb->new_keymaster = ‘admin’; // or whatever the name of the account is.

// Change this to localize bbPress. A corresponding MO file for the

// chosen language must be installed to bb-includes/languages.

// For example, install de.mo to bb-includes/languages and set BB_LANG to ‘de’

// to enable German language support.

define(‘BB_LANG’, ”);

// If your bbPress URL is http://bbpress.example.com/forums/ , the examples would be correct.

// Adjust the domain and path to suit your actual URL.

// Just the domain name; no directories or path. There should be no trailing slash here.

$bb->domain = ‘http://myeasymaster.com/bbpress902/bbpress/’; // Example: ‘http://bbpress.example.com’

// There should be both a leading and trailing slash here. ‘/’ is fine if the site is in root.

$bb->path = ‘/’; // Example: ‘/forums/’

// What are you going to call me?

$bb->name = ‘New bbPress Site’;

// This must be set before running the install script.

$bb->admin_email = ‘webmaster@myeasymast.com’;

// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks.

$bb->mod_rewrite = false;

// The number of topics that show on each page.

$bb->page_topics = 30;

// A user can edit a post for this many minutes after submitting.

$bb->edit_lock = 60;

// Your timezone offset. Example: -7 for Pacific Daylight Time.

$bb->gmt_offset = 0;

// Your Akismet Key. You do not need a key to run bbPress, but if you want to take advantage

// of Akismet’s powerful spam blocking, you’ll need one. You can get an Akismet key at

// http://wordpress.com/api-keys/

$bb->akismet_key = false;

// The rest is only useful if you are integrating bbPress with WordPress.

// If you’re not, just leave the rest as it is.

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp251_’; // ‘wp_’; // WordPress table prefix.

$bb->wp_home = ‘http://myeasymaster.com/wordpress251/wordpress’;

// WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://myeasymaster.com/wordpress251/wordpress’;

// WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash

/* Stop editing */

define(‘BBPATH’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/’ );

require_once( BBPATH . ‘bb-settings.php’ );
