I also would like to know this. Any tips? Thanks in advance!

Hope to hear news about this soon! Thanks!

I just wish I knew how to get bbPress to stop wiping out all the BuddyPress/WPMU filters and hooks. Incorporating them together is so easy, but making them play nice together isn’t…

I have spent a long time and created a general forums plugin. I will not be releasing it, as it requires additional modifications to the core of buddypress, but you cen see it working at:

There is a modification request which I submitted, to remove the error in the core, but I don’t believe it has been resolved yet.

Perfect thread! Was looking for instructions to integrate the BP Core Admin Bar into bbPress.

I did something a little bit different.

Instead of hacking the core files, I used my bbPress theme’s functions.php file and added the functions listed in step #4 into a customized function I called “recreate_bb_admin_bar”.

Then I added this function as an “add_action” and it works!

*Make sure you have step #7 done as well.

Thanks guys!

I sent this to Arturo, but I thought I’d post it on the forums as well!

Here’s my complete bbPress functions.php code so far:

function recreate_bb_admin_bar() {

echo '<div id="wp-admin-bar"><ul class="main-nav">';

bp_adminbar_logo();

bp_adminbar_login_menu();

bp_adminbar_account_menu();

bp_adminbar_blogs_menu();

bp_adminbar_notifications_menu();

bp_adminbar_authors_menu();

bp_adminbar_random_menu();

echo '</ul></div>';



}



add_action( 'wp_footer', 'recreate_bb_admin_bar', 8 );

add_action( 'admin_footer', 'recreate_bb_admin_bar' );

add_action( 'wp_head', 'bp_core_admin_bar_css', 1 );

Have fun!

I was able to fix the problem of the wrong logo by adding in the following line to my bbpress functions.php file:

add_filter(‘bp_admin_bar_logo_src’, ‘my_admin_bar_logo’);

The new problem is that the logo still appears with too big of a left margin. Any ideas folks?

Yeah, I’m playing around with doing that now. Just was wondering if anyone else out there was experiencing the same.

@Mattlay-

As he has not been active on these forums for over a month, I doubt you’ll get a reply from Terryjsmith.

But, to answer this question:

I am curious if anyone knows if bbpress and BP are working to do this somehow by default. I am sure they are working on a lot of things but like I said this seems rather important from a users perspective.

You should view theBuddyPress roadmap. You can see that for BP v1.1, better integration support is one of the goals.

Ok, I’m getting tired of this forum always changing my posts when submitting. I guess that post up there is good enough for you guys to understand.

The above works for me too on the front page. But as soon as I try to go to admin pages it spits out errors, not able to find the wp-blog-header file.

I am by no means a coder but it worked when I changed the bb-config.php add to:

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

In case someone else faces the same problem…

@el_terko:

Sorry for not being clear!

What I mean by “deep integration” is calling WordPress into bbPress. You can do this by doing what Necati above you said. Then you can just follow the steps I have listed above.

@Necati:

Thanks for posting that for everyone! My instructions weren’t the clearest!

[EDIT]

I decided to post the full code again for clarity’s sake.

On line 2 in bb-config.php (located in your bbPress forum install), add this:

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

Now, add this to your bbPress theme’s functions.php (if you do not have a functions.php file in your bbPress theme folder, create one!)

function recreate_bb_admin_bar() {

echo '<div id="wp-admin-bar">';

bp_adminbar_logo();

echo '<ul class="main-nav">';

bp_adminbar_login_menu();

bp_adminbar_account_menu();

bp_adminbar_blogs_menu();

bp_adminbar_notifications_menu();

bp_adminbar_authors_menu();

bp_adminbar_random_menu();

echo '</ul></div>';

}

add_action('bb_foot', 'recreate_bb_admin_bar');

add_action('bb_admin_footer', 'recreate_bb_admin_bar');

add_action( 'bb_head', 'bp_core_admin_bar_css', 1 );

add_action( 'bb_admin_head', 'bp_core_admin_bar_css', 1 );

I also made one last change to the function because it wasn’t XHTML validating before! See if you can spot the change

hi,ray,thanks a lot for your solution about this issue,it works pretty well.
i have a question about your code.
what does this line do?
add_action( ‘bb_head’, ‘bp_core_admin_bar_css’, 1 );
I suppose it was used to modify style.css file
but i could not find where bp_core_admin_bar_css locate.
could you explain it a little bit more?
thanks again.
