Thats a good trick John, thanks.

The other day someone was asking about assigning different members “levels” to have access to certain assets. This seems like a good way to do it. Create 5 groups or so and base permissions on those.

Any thoughts if that would be easier than assigning members an actual permission level?

I have tried RC 1 and 2 with no luck.

What I am really looking for is a version that matches the install instructions.

What are others doing?

[@mattkern Participant 16 years, 12 months ago]

I just checked what bbpress I was using when I was having success during the beta stage and it was the alpha 6 version.

Should I still be using this version?

Why is no one else seeming to have this problem?

[@mattkern Participant 16 years, 12 months ago]

is BB v1.0 rc 3 the correct one to be using?

[@mattkern Participant 16 years, 12 months ago]

Thanks Chris. I just did that and the install seemed good but now whenever I try to go to the forum I get

” Oh dear!

bbPress is already installed.

Perhaps you meant to run the upgrade script instead?”

Its weird. I did not get stuck at this part with the beta version. I am going to start over again to see what happens.

[@mattkern Participant 16 years, 12 months ago]

Cool. Now maybe you can help me install bbpress if you got it going.

What a headache.

[@mattkern Participant 16 years, 12 months ago]

Here’s a shot in the dark.

Go to your permalinks setting page and resubmit it. You don’t have to change anything.

I have found that has fixed some of my page issues when I was under the hood constructing new pages by hand.

Just a thought.

Wow, I too haven’t used IRC in a decade.

I would rather hang out here and talk BP. Seems less painful.

Thanks Erich (assuming I am the Matt you were referring to!)

I think you are talking about threaded responses.

As far as I know, bbpress does not do those. Also, (as far as I know) it does not alert you when someone has replied to your post.

I have seen these features mentioned in bbpress wishlists before. Hopefully someday they will get added.

I am completely new to bbpress so I am not sure of their future feature plans.

Work in progress. You know how it goes.

Can I be put on the main list?

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

Thanks Burt. That actually makes sense.

Maybe I can resort to some CSS trickery to move it around.

Thanks for the tip.

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

I still haven’t figured this one out if anyone has any ideas….

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

Thanks Ben. My network has no users so I am trying to address this from the start.

Here is what I had from last night. Doesn’t work yet though.

add_action('wpmu_new_blog', 'mk_delete_default_post');



function mk_delete_default_post($blog_id) {



global $wpdb;

$query = "DELETE * from {$wpdb->posts}";

echo $query;

$wpdb->get_results($query, ARRAY_A);

}

wpmu_new_blog() returns the int of the new post. Originally I was going to assemble the string to the table because I could not find a reliable way to get the table name yet.

something like

$table = $table_prefix . wpmu_new_blog() .’_post’;

$query = “DELETE * from {$table}”;

I got distracted so I haven’t quite quite got it going yet.

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

“post-it” – thats great. Good solution.

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

Thanks Ben.

Worst case scenario maybe I could see what they were doing and jumpstart the plugin I was working on to get it done.

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

Nice tip. Thanks Lance.

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

Don’t feel bad. No one understands it in English either

I am ripping “Wire” out of mine out and changing it to “Comments” – because thats what it is.

Otsukar Sama!

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

Thats awesome. Thanks Mr. Fishbowl.

I started writing my own, but this one will work better.

Thanks

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

Thanks Nicola

I remember reading that somewhere but it doesn’t effect me. Thanks for the heads up though…

I think I might just have to reinstall and start clean. I have other sandbox issues that I can take care of at the same time.

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

How come I can only see my reply to burt when i log in? Thats weird…

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

Hey Burt, when you say there is none, do you mean is belongs to wpmu and not bp?

if you go here:

http://testbp.org/blog

That is the admin blog. If there was a widget on the front page of blogs and the admin blog was featured in the widget, the link would point to http://testbp.org/ and not http://testbp.org/blog

I have seen this multiple times but cant find an example other than the one above right now.

Thanks

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

found it over here…

remove admin bar

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=1115

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 2 months ago]

So then would this code remove the admin bar? Would I place it in functions.php?

remove_action(‘wp_footer’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar’);

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 3 months ago]

Alright, I am on to my next install and having a few different problems.

“There was an error posting that reply.” is the group error message after posting, BUT the post is still made. Meaning, all my test users can post to the group forum as expected (and no data is lost), but I get the ugly red bar saying it didn’t work out.

IF I disable buddypress-enable.php in bbpress plugins, then I don’t get the error message – I get the green success message – and everyone can post accurately.

Thoughts?

[@mattkern Participant 17 years, 3 months ago]

Well, I hate to resort to a hack, but I did get integration going.

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/share-solution-for-bbpress-10-alpha-6-wordpress-mu-27-cookie-integration

simply defining BB_HASH as an emtpy string.

I did notice them my cookie names did not seem to follow the naming convention that the Reverend was mentioning on his site.

Anyway, now I can move on to the fun stuff….
