BuddyPress.org

@Russell

Use the official instructions from the readme.txt.

http://svn.wp-plugins.org/buddybar-in-bbpress/trunk/readme.txt

Swap out the include_once line for this:

include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/wp-blog-header.php');

In most cases that will work, but let us know what happens!

I meant to say that that button will disappear when I change out that line of code…

Ok, the fix I posted about earlier fixed the issue with BuddyBar…

However, it breaks the BuddyPress to forums functionality.

I just checked and switching out that one line of code in bb-config.php will make the “Enable discussion forum” button in a group’s settings and I can’t post to the forum from a group page in BuddyPress.

I’m pasting verbatim into bb-config.php:

require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/wp-blog-header.php');

Is that correct? Or do $_SERVER and DOCUMENT_ROOT need to be filled in with different items?

Wow. Voltron indeed

Apparently you form the head.

Delete all of your the cookies for your website.

Login through WordPress.

Check that you are logged in on bbPress side.

Attempt to access both administration panels.

Check your sites cookies.

Verify that the domain and/or site for the cookies are all identical.

Logout.

Logout.

If at any point through-out that process your sites cookies are NOT identical, it’s time to start fussing around with the cookie settings, and get them to line up.

I know of a few people working on a full-on tutorial for fresh installs for the entire package (BP 1.0.2, bbPress 1.0.1, WPMU 2.71).

TheEasyButton was working furiously on a walkthrough. John also stated he was working on one.

Patience! Something will pop up soon!

Added this to my style’s css and it works:

/* Fixing Admin Buddy Bar */

#wp-admin-bar img#admin-bar-logo {

padding-top: 13px;

position: absolute !important;

top: 8px;

left: 10px;

}

That 13px feels so weirdly random to me. Ah well. My pm to JJJ was #666, my fix for CSS was #13… There’s a theme going on here!

Ok got it working….

Thanks for the help!

Used one of the steps r-a-y proposed to matthijsv earlier that didn’t work for matthijsv:

Hey matthijsv,

What happens when you switch out in bb-config.php:

include_once( ‘/the/absolute/path/to/your/wp-blog-header.php’ );

for

require_once($_SERVER[‘DOCUMENT_ROOT’].’/wp-blog-header.php’);

@r-a-y

Sorry I missed the second part of your response to me.

I read matthijsv’s fix, but isn’t the main part of his fix turning off the transposh plugin?

I don’t have that plugin installed.

@r-a-y

BuddyPress and bbPress Integration

@krugazul

If you’re using different functions for your menu bar (like your invite friends link), you need to add them in the BuddyBar plugin (manually with your favorite text editor!).

@ipstenu

Yes, pound that logo with some CSS!

@Russell,

What other plugins are you using on the WP side?

Did you read mtthijsv’s fix?

One thing I should add is that I have a privacy plugin on the WPMU side, but I disabled that and still got the same error message.

I’m getting the same error as matthijsv, fatal error at line 37 of the plugin file.

I have deep integration working as I can post from BuddyPress or bbPress.

WPMU 2.7.1

BuddyPress 1.0.2

bbPress 1.0.1

Any suggestions?

Props to r-a-y and John James Jacoby (the latter of whom put up with my self-inflicted stupidity that made me … whinge)

My layout is pretty much what I want, and everything appears to be working, so it’s time to look at the non-essential, but gosh that’s weird problem.

If you go to my forums, the ‘BuddyPress’ link on the top left is vertically weirded. Which is the only way I can describe it. Should I just beat it into submission with css, and assume it’s a css conflict of names?

I used http://theeasybutton.com/blog/2009/04/30/integrating-buddypress-10-wpmu-and-bbpress/

But I do not know which versions U R intending to install & integrate.

OK, figured it out.

Apperaenly the word press shutdown sequence isn’t being called by the plugin. For Transposh this means that

function on_shutdown() {

ob_flush();

}

is not being called.

I now added ob_flush() to the footer of my template and the problem is solved!

Since this relates to bbPress specifically, I would ask this question in the bbPress forum.

To have the topic title as the page tittle, the topic first post as the meta description and the tags as the keyword would be ideal and really boost the seo of the forum posts.

You should first focus on all the other things that have the greatest SEO impact (like creating quality content).

Since you cannot control the content of your forums–it is generated by all your users after all–I think the best SEO booster for bbPress was just implemented by Sam. See this link: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/buddypress-forums-now-use-pretty-permalinks

haha. Yep me too. I looked for that user in the bbpress user db and it doesn’t exist there. Seems to be a bp only user so mods don’t have access. I sent a PM to Andy about it.

thanks Burt, just upgraded the forum and all these tricks are working now!

Now I have to integrate it with buddypress groups, I guess I will lose another hours/days as I can already see an error message “There was an error posting that topic.” when I try to submit new topic via bp

Thanks anyway for the hint in the wpmu/bbpress integration part.

@transposh:

Problem seems to be with the output buffering.

Output is getting buffered on initialization and my guess is that it is somehow never flushed.

init_global_vars();



if (isset($_POST['translation_posted'])) {

update_translation();

}

elseif (isset($_GET['tr_token_hist'])) {

get_translation_history($_GET['tr_token_hist'], $_GET['lang']);

}

elseif (isset($_GET['tp_gif'])) {

$trans_gif_64 = "R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAAAAACH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw=";

header("Content-type: image/gif");

print(base64_decode($trans_gif_64));

exit;

}

else {

//set the callback for translating the page when it's done

ob_start("process_page");

}

}

When I comment out the ob_start line forums are working. Will test Transposh in a bit.
