Hi- I am looking for a way to filter posts by both category AND tags.
So Lets say I have 8 different forums and 8 tags. I am looking to filter the displayed posts so that users are only seeing the posts that are in the same specific forum AND with the same specific tag.
I don’t think there is a specific plugin to do this. Infact the only thing I can think of to do is to edit the BBPress core files. Perhaps by combining forum.php and tags.php. And maybe even modifying the function bb_repermalink()
Has anyone wanted to do this and succeeded? Any advice?
Hi guys,
I can’t launch the installation of bbpress on my existing wordpress blog using the same database. The issue I have is, that i have a blank page…
So no way to launch the installation.
It’s on the same server
using the same db
I even created a second user to the DB (didn’t change anything)
I have enabled all the writing right to the installation folder
So what do you recommand. Do a fresch install of wordpress and bbpress or is there a solution for me to avoid that for exemple feeling up a file myself to have the insatallation process behind me.
Cheers for your help.
I’ve tried hacking a couple wp plugins to bbpress to get better code preservation. But it’s not working.
What is used here? It seems to actually work somehow and that’s not the default technique in the core…
I am having problems with the character encoding of my bbpress install. I have it integrated with wordpress and when I use the “Latest bbpress discussions” plugin I see the weird characters you get when you mix collations and charsets.
I have wordpress in utf-8 thanks to this plugin: utf8 dtaabase converter.
Before it I had it set to utf but still, the database was showing weird characters (the collation was alright though). So this is probably a MySQL problem somewhere.
Should I try to adapt the wordpress utf8 converter for bbpress?
To add to my last post, It appears that the style sheet is not being applied to the forum. I would like to make some extensive changes and I need to know what files I use and how is the style sheet to be linked? Do we have access to the html and can we change the layout?
Yes, how does one receive the Akismet key id. I downloaded the file and read that one would be emailed upon registration. Is this correct, or is a step missed on my part?
Thanks for the last bit of help.
Up and running and would like to develop the template/theme to compliment my website. How do I start?
Just down loaded latest version and it says copy the confi.example.php to the config.php and I don’t see a document called config.php. What do they mean?
Hi, I’m having problems with the character encoding on a WP/BBpress integrated site. In WP, I can tell the system to encode the page in ISO-8859-1 (which is necessary in this case), in bbpress I don’t know how. I declare the doctype and the meta-content-charset in the theme’s header, but as opposed to the WP pages, the bbpress generated ones are encoded as UTF-8. Looking at the page properties in Firefox, I can see “encoding: UTF-8” and “meta information… charset:ISO-8859-1”.
Can someone help, please? Thanks in advance!
Hi there – recently installed bbPress and picked a placeholder forum name and now I can’t figure out how to change it?
I would expect to find some “general forum prefs” under the Admin screen of my forum, but no luck.
any advice?
