I am new to the whole running a forum/website thing and I was wondering if I could get any types on getting the registration emails to go. I am running the forum on Ubuntu Server and I do not know what to do to fix this. Thanks a bunch.
Registration Email not being sent
Published on April 28th, 2008 byNo Search Forums Field in Kakumei?
Published on April 28th, 2008 byHi!
I’m using the Kakumei theme, and I like it – except for the fact that there is no “search forums” field, as is the case in the theme used here, at the bbPress support forum.
Does anyone know whether (and how) I could insert a Search field in my Kakumei theme?
Thanks!
bbPress 0.219 and WordPress 2.51
Published on April 27th, 2008 byHi folks, there seem to be many people out there having similar issues, but I’ve spent all evening looking through for a solution and still no luck.
I’m trying to do a full integration of bbPress 0.219 and WordPress 2.51, full integration meaning that bbPress should load WordPress functions and vice versa.
WordPress appears to be playing very nicely and loading bbPress template tags with no problems at all. I’ve done this using
//BBPress Integration
if ( !defined('BBDB_NAME') )
require_once(ABSPATH.'forum/bb-load.php');
at the very end of my wp-config.php file, as per the tutorial at
http://www.adityanaik.com/integratepress-part-i/ . As I say, no problem so far.
It’s when I try to load WP functions into bbPress that I run into trouble. When I’ve attempted either of the following two mods to bb-config.php, it has disabled user login, as well as blocking me from /bb-admin (which re-directs straight back to home). The two mods to bb-config.php I have tried are:
// WordPress Integration //
define('WP_BB', true);
if ( !defined('DB_NAME') ) {
require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-config.php');
}
// **Wordpress Variables ** //
$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_'; // your wordpress db prefix is
$bb->wp_home = 'http://localhost/bloomag';
$bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://localhost/bloomag';
or simply
require_once( 'C:testingserverwwwbloomagwp-blog-header.php');
With both these mods, the bbPress page loads up with no problems but, as I say, both /bb-admin and any attempt to log-in give no response and just redirect to the hompage.
Has anyone got any suggestions for what might be going wrong and the correct method to call WP functions into bbPress?
Thanks a lot,
>Ben

“Promote” bbPress forum topic to WordPress blog post?
Published on April 27th, 2008 byI love that the bbSync plugin turns WordPress blog posts into bbPress forum topics. But is there a way to do the opposite?. In other words, can you turn a bbPress forum topic into a WordPress blog post. I’d love the ability to “promote” certain forum topics into a WordPress blog post.
That way, the blog can becomes a community blog, where members can submit content in the forums. And if the content is good, it can be selected by a moderator to make it to the front page of the blog

Some accessibility fixes
Published on April 27th, 2008 by MarcozHi there!
I just started to experiment with bbPress and will integrate it into my family’s blog installation which of course runs WordPress. 
While playing around with it, I noticed some missing labels on form controls. These missing associations cause screen readers to not pick up on the right stuff to speak when focus moves to a certain textbox, combobox or the like.
So, I went ahead and filed ticket #871 to deal with this and submitted a patch.
If you’re interested in accessibility, I invite you to follow that trac ticket!

Host problems
Published on April 27th, 2008 byOk, I think I’m just doing something really stupid, but maybe not. I downloaded bbpress 9.0.2, ran the installation, and have it working, BUT all links are not relative but instead redirect to ‘http://localhost/bbpress/whatever’ instead of just ‘whatever’. This effectively mean that my forum doesn’t work from any machine but the one I’m running it on. Is there any way to change the host name, ie the ‘http://localhost/bbpress/’ prefix or to tell bbpress to use relative pathnames?
Thanks in advance for any and all help,
-Calder
[EDIT 4/26/2008 8:50 pm] Apologies if this would be better suited for the installation forum…
