How do you group most recent posts by category on front-page.php?

Hi,

I’ve been working with bbPress, vBulletin and Invision Power Board since each one of them made their debuts and I’m very good at integrating them into many CMS, mainly our beloved WordPress blogging software and Joomla.

So I’m offering my integration services to those fustrated souls fighting to integrate bbPress, vBulletin and Invision Power Board into your WordPress blog.

Check out my site http://invisionbridge.com for the latest guides on how to integrate bbPress, vBulletin and IPB into your WordPress.

I haven’t used bbPress in a while and I’ve just started thinking about using it again. A few months ago it was relatively easy to integrate bbPress and WordPress, from what I’ve been reading in the forums, things have changed.

With the incorporation of ‘backPress’ etc, what’s my best bet for setting up a new site with bbPress and WordPress sharing users and cookies?

I’d really like to use the latest version of WordPress, is there a certain changeset of bbPress I should use?

What can I change to have all links that are posted on the site open in a new window instead of the window that the forum is using? Thanks!

Obviously bbpress takes someone with a good understanding of php and I don’t have that. I have contacted 2 of you offering to pay you to help me but have heard nothing back. I didn’t want to ditch my wordpress, I liked it. I sure didn’t want to ditch either wp or bbpress after I’d worked to create templates that went with my site, but what good are templates if I can’t open the forums to my site visitors because they just aren’t working?

I’ve had a headache over this for several days now. I’ve found another forum software with a blog that I can also buy a month of phone support for ~ total cost for forum, blog, and one month phone support = US $195.00 (can take credit card or paypal). I would still rather pay someone here who has good working forums to get mine fixed ~~~ rather than start with creating a new template. I am doing one of the two tomorrow ~ if no one here is willing to help, I will be forced to go with the other product.

IF you are willing to help, you MUST have good, working bbpress forums running somewhere so that I can see your abilities. That’s how I chose the two members that I have already contacted. I checked out their forums.

Hi- We’ve been trying in desperation to stop spambots from registering profiles on our very active bbpress forums, and despite the captcha test we installed, it seems they are circumventing the registration process and creating new accounts all the time. We’re getting around 50 fake profiles a day.

We’re being told by several sources that this is a bug in the current version of bbpress and there is no solution for it. We simply can’t accept this, that bbpress would be open to such severe bugs.

Right now we’re manually deleting profiles and we’re seriously considering abandoning this plattform for a more secure foums solution that works with WordPress.

Do you have any insight into how to stop them from creating bogus profiles? Right now for some reason they are all having their birthday as Feb 2, 2008.

You can see some of the profiles here:

I am beginning to test some code I have written to pre-configure a CPANEL based website to auto-install bbPress. Barring any extreme problems (or unforseen events in my life) I should have an early beta to test by the weekend.

It will only require a few simple inputs such as your username and password (same as you’d use on FTP or cpanel access) and from there it will do everything – create the database and tables, download bbPress, install it and take you to it’s configuration options.

It may be possible to eventually get it working with other types of hosts. I plan to investigate doing it on dreamhost and perhaps a couple of the other most popular hosts.

How do I change the throttle limit; what files or db fields? Also, is it based on username or IP? Thanks.

where can i grab variables like ‘slugs’ and post url?

fyi: i plan on using these variables in the header where my stats query is located.

OK ~~~ This is one of the many issues I have going on because I don’t understand php. I THINK it happened when I was trying to align my blog name to the right and the rest of my page to the left, but I’m not sure ~~ I’ve also done a lot of copying and pasting of code snippets, so I may have done it then.

My login form one the header is leading from right to left instead of left to right as you can see on this page ( http://deesdogcare.com/DogBlog/dogdays/topic.php?id=3 ). It’s definitely a global setting because it’s that way on every page.

Any bright ideas?
