Did you know bbPress is officially one year old today?

Although it was in development since 2004,

the first public official release of bbPress was

on Saturday October 14th, 2006

(version 0.7.2, nickname”bix”)

You’ve come a long way baby! Many happy returns…

bbPress error: “Forum not found”

Published on October 13th, 2007 by

Hi guys,

I have no idea what caused this; I haven’t changed a thing since the last time I accessed my bbPress forum.

The link to my forum can be accessed here: N2E Forum. And the problem is that whenever I attempt to access any URL whatsoever I am presented with a rather unpleasant bbPress error message stating “Forum not found” (example) .

Like I say, I haven’t changed a single thing and am absolutely baffled. I had a go at fixing this myself but this is totally beyond me.

Please let me know if you need any details at all. I appreciate any and all help.

Kind regards,

Steve

Is Akismet even COMPATIBLE with 0.8.3?

Published on October 12th, 2007 by

When I try to activate Akismet in my site admin>plugins panel I get this error:

Plugin could not be activated; it produced a Fatal Error.

But then I notice that there IS an Akismet Spam tab in my content panel–and it’s blocking posts from normal users and marking people as Bozos. What the heck? Am I doing something wrong or is Akismet incompatible with the latest release? Ahhh! Frustrating!

9rules.com

Published on October 12th, 2007 by

Hey everyone! We just re-launched this past Tuesday and we like to show the bbpress community what we were able to do by using bbpress as a basis.

  • 9rules Notes This is what we started with a year ago and was basically a bbpress install with a pretty interface on top.
  • my.9rules Then this past February we built in more elaborate profiles to make it more of a social network.
  • my.9r Store We went a step further and now allow the slight customization of your profiles.
  • 9rules Clips Uses the same tables as the Notes bbpress install, it’s our version of Social Bookmarking/Social News.
  • We also created specialized areas (forums) called Cliques. An example can be seen here.

All of this on top of a bbpress install and lots of hardwork. We love bbpress and many thanks to the developers for creating a kickass tool.

about the license

Published on October 12th, 2007 by pacino

What’s the license that bbpress is using? GPL?

And, I am wondering whether it is possible to use bbpress (with some modification) in a commercial website and open source only the modified bbpress (that is, the rest of the website will not be open sourced)?

Thanks

Parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE – config.php

Published on October 11th, 2007 by

I receive the following error after install:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in …/forum/config.php on line 18

The code relevant to line 18 is:

// The full URL of your bbPress install

$bb->uri = ‘http://thebigo.ejoculation.com/forum/’;

I’ve tried editing this to:

// The full URL of your bbPress install

$bb->uri = “http://thebigo.ejoculation.com/forum/”;

… as suggested in similar instances, but receive the same error.

It’s official, I don’t know the answer and I’m forced to admit there are smarter people out there than me. Can someone please help?

WordPress-MU and BBPress

Hello everyone

Am I right in presuming that BBPress works just as well with WordPress-MU as it does with WordPress?

thanks

template for post-form label

Published on October 10th, 2007 by

I’m currently editing the default theme template for the latest version. Everything is going well, except I can’t find the code reference for the “Reply” label (it shows up as <h2 class='post-form'>Reply</h2> in the HTML output. The rest of this section is editable in post-form.php. Where do I need to look to find the section (basically I just want to either remove this label and add a new one separately, or else be able to wrap some more code around it). The only other thing which may shed some light on this is the preceeding code: do_action( 'post_form_pre_post' ); but I have no idea what this function does.

Strange posting problem

Published on October 10th, 2007 by outchy

When I write a new post and hit the submit button, I get redirected to my main root blog page with the address bar reading “http://www.example.com/forum/bb-post.php”. It’s like the bb-post.php page doesn’t exist but it surely does, in fact my girlfriend is having no trouble posting to it as we speak! I’ve goten a few one-word posts to go through randomly but every other time, it kicks me out to my main root page. I have no idea what’s going on, I tried the “Fix bbPress

(0.8.1-1)” plugin and that didn’t help.

Has anyone seen this before?

I would like to add topic text to the frontpage where I use

<?php topic_title(); ?>

Is there a variable for this?
