I’ve been using your plugin for a couple of weeks now and found this problem.

Once a user is subscribed to the forum post and they click on unsubscribe, if someone creates a new forum topic, they are subscribed again. If they go to notifications and switch off the notifications for the specific group, it doesn’t help. As soon as a new forum topic is started they get the mail of the forum and they are subscribed.

Anyway to fix this?

Har har har, thanks Ray. I’ve been having issues with Akismet and my server config today. Sorry if I have bespoiled your feeds.

How to Integrate WordPress and bbPress in 3 Simple Steps

Hi Ray,

Thanks for the comments. Yeah, I think I deleted the bbPress instructions from the plugin package when I went to 1.0, but I should put them back.

I have been meaning to write up the process by which I redirected BuddyPress forum traffic over to bbPress, but I got lazy and didn’t do it. Glad you figured it out on your own! I remember it took some weird hacks to fix all the links. I should really write about it one of these days, before the knowledge leaves my head forever.

Hey Boone,

The bbPress instructions listed in this post wasn’t in the readme.txt of the plugin package.

PS. I like what you did over at the CUNY BP site – how you are redirecting BP group forum posts to their bbPress equivalents.

I’ve copied your method on a test BP < 1.1 install and it works beautifully! I can't believe I didn't think of this method before! (I did have to hack some core files to do this though!)

Hi Jim. I originally wrote the code for 1.0.3, and only afterward retrofitted it for 1.1. I have not done super extensive testing to make sure that it still works with 1.0.3, but it should. I’m running it on the production version of the Academic Commons, which is running 1.0.3, so I hope it works, anyway :)

This is excellent Boone, I am going to have to try this out, it will work with pre1.1 version? I’m running 1.0.3.
