Weird. Any guesses on this?

With the 0.9 release, and now six months after the first roundup, I figured it was time to take another look at the (completely unofficial) bbPress Top 100 list:

http://bbshowcase.org/forums/view/top100

While about 200 sites have gone missing from the previous list, I managed to find about 600 more to make up for it, so the list is now at just under 1500 (a 50% growth).

If you register/login you can also see the sites that may have just missed the top 100, or see the whole deal via the top 1000:

http://bbshowcase.org/forums/view/top1000

Some really nice looking sites among the bunch. I enabled “snapshots” so you can mouse-over the their little logo and get a general preview. I hope to improve the list someday with the ability to vote on the design of any site to raise it higher in the list (or a separate list for top design).

If I missed your site, be sure to let me know for the next update…

How do I use bb_query to fetch all topics that were started within a given date range?

Here’s an example found an example of a bb_query code on the bbPress blog:

$topic_query = new BB_Query( ‘topic’,

array(

‘topic_author’ => ‘mdawaffe’,

‘started’ => ‘2007-06’,

‘tag’ => ‘bbpress’,

‘order_by’ => ‘topic_start_time’

)

);

$topic_query->results; // Here’s the array of topics the query returned.

This shows how to get topics that where started on June 2007. But what if I wanted to get all topics that were started between June 2, 2007 10:30:49 PM and February 12, 2008 9:02:32 am?

I think I may be missing something totally obvious. Any suggestions? I

I know its more secure but I find my attach rate is MUCH higher if the user enters their own password rather than has a forum generate one for them.

Does anyone know an easy way to do this, I mean I can just go in and hack it myself but I wasn’t sure if there was a mod or anything to allow this.

I try to install bbpress but no success..can someone help me to solve this problem?

Is there a way to show a paginated list of front page stickies? In the default bbPress template file “front-page.php”, I found this code:

<?php if ( $super_stickies ) : foreach ( $super_stickies as $topic ) : ?>

<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_topic_labels(); ?> <big>“><?php topic_title(); ?></big></td>

<td class=”num”><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>

<td class=”num”><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td>

<td class=”num”>“><?php topic_time(); ?></td>

</tr>

<?php endforeach; endif; // $super_stickies ?>

It display a list of front page stickies, but it doesn’t have any pagination if you have a lot of stickies. I tried adding this:

But it doens’t work.

Any suggestions on getting this to paginate?

I figured this out by accident after not finding much in the forums about it, so I thought I’d post it fresh.

In wordpress, we use <?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?> to go straight to your template directory (i.e. “http://mysite.com/wp-content/themes/mytheme”).

In bbPress, to go yout theme directory (i.e. “http://mysite.com/bb-templates/mytheme”), you use <?php bb_option('template_uri'); ?>

All of a sudden, a lot of my users are getting a 500 error after posting. The URL stays at http://boards.weddingbee.com/bb-post.php, but the post actually goes through. However, since the user doesn’t know this, there are now a lot of double-posts on my http://boards.weddingbee.com server.

I couldn’t repro this in FF, but I did repro it in IE7. I think this has to do with a recent Windows Update. I’ll do more research now, but I thought I’d post here to see if anybody else is seeing this. Also, I’m using IE7 to post this, so we’ll see if I can repro this error here…

EDIT: I didn’t get a 500 error when posting this, so it must be something on my server. However, it just started very recently, and I haven’t made any changes to the server for a while, so I’m not sure what the problem is…

I’m using bbPress 0.902 and WPMU 1.3.3. Integrating the bbPress with the user database works, but then I can’t access the bbPress admin console anymore. Here’s what happens:

1. install bbPress without integration and in the process create an admin account bbadmin.

2. The bbadmin account works, I can access the bbPress admin screens, etc.

3. Change the integration settings to point to the WPMU users table. I do NOT do the cookie integration as this is problematic with the new password hashing.

4. bbPress immediately logs bbadmin out. I can login with WPMU user accounts, but none of them can access the bbPress admin console. More importantly, the bbadmin account can’t login anymore.

I’ve replicated this problem 7 times.

The bottom line is that I can’t use the db integration feature at all.

Question – how can I integrate the WPMU users and still access the bbPress admin console?

For WP it’s recommended to chmod directories 755 and files 644 for “hardening” purposes.

Does the same advice apply to bbP, and would using that scheme break anything?
