bbPress.org

Hello, I’m trying to get this fully realized. At the moment I’ve just been hacking away at the Kakumei front-page.php but with limited results.

So far it just pulls up the latest topics with no regard to what forum they are in. I’ve found template functions for the topic title, topic link, number of posts, last poster, and time, but other than defining the id manually I haven’t figured out how to get the last post of a topic to display automatically.

I think I could manage to pull this information out of the database with some basic SQL queries, but I’d rather use what’s available than write some shoddy code of my own.

Any help is appreciated.

When I login as admin I am not able to see the ‘design’, ‘settings’ and ‘plugins’ menus. I am able to see only ‘Dashboard’, ‘Users’, ‘Manage’ in the site admin. I recently integrated the bbPress with wp. Some one Please help. thanks.

Earlier I had problem with the admin user name in the wp (all post of the admin started to get posted on some other user registered user ). I was suggested to delete the user name (which also is the username of the admin in the bbpress) and recreate the same user name.

I have some very neat users who like to edit their posts when they make spelling/grammar errors. But bbPress will only allow them to edit until a specified time is up. Is there a way that I can set the time limit to none or something like that? If not, is there anything bad about setting the limit to something like 999999?

Anyone else have this problem with 1and1 ?

I cannot get pretty permalinks to run, even after following directions.

I wrote to them

I am running wordpress and bbpress in the same root directory

http://mysite.com is wordpress install and

http://mysite.com/bbpress/ is bbpress install each install has

it’s own .htaccess for using permalinks. WordPress permalinks work fine

but I cannot get bbpress pretty permalinks to work at all. I have tried

different variations of htaccess codes for both files without any

success. It seems to me that the main root htaccess is overriding the

/bbpress/ htaccess.

Any suggestions ?

This was their reply to me.

“Dear Cliffmaster, (Customer ID: 6XXXXXXXX)

Thank you for contacting us.

With regards to your query,

we would highly suggest that you install BBpress on a different folder

and not on folder where you have installed a different CMS (WordPress).

Please separate the two CMS’s by installing them on different folders

under the root directory (/.)

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Hi all

I am going live with my site soon, and was wondering how the showcase of Top 100 forums is rated. Is it by number of users on each forum or is it voted for?

Thanks

How do I hide everything under the login header?

I am using the hidden-forums.php plugin; and love it. I like how you can’t see forums until the user is logged in. I would like to clean up the interface a bit by eliminating everything but the login header.

Any ideas?

Is it possible to convert PHPBB posts/user db to bbpress?

Any help would be appreciated.

Okay i must be retarded but the install page does not say where i am supposed to upload the install files… help!

i just solved my login cookie issue after one night debugging…

i found these things:

– by default, wpmu generate auth_cookie as “wordpress”, but bbpress generate as “wordpress_xxxxx(hash)”

– wpmu not using “database secret” for cookie hashing, but it use the SECRET_SALT constant defined in the wp-config.php, bbpress using “database secret”. so the cookie result will never be the same.

you need to update your bb-config.php file to meet these situations.

assumed you’ve successfully install wpmu + bbpress, then edit your bb-config.php and add these line:

define(‘BB_SECRET_KEY’, ‘yourreallysecretkey’);

define(‘BB_SECRET_SALT’, ‘yourreallysecretsalt’);

$bb->authcookie = ‘wordpress’;

$bb->cookiedomain = ‘.yourdomain.com’;

$bb->cookiepath = ‘/’;

$bb->sitecookiepath = ”;

and try to login… voila.. you can switch to bbpress and wpmu without re-login…

good luck,
