Note:<\/strong> We are using a FREE<\/strong> theme from WordPress Repository called Idyllic<\/strong>, You can use any bbPress Theme<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For WordPress Multisite, READ VERY CAREFULLY<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Using WordPress Single Site (Not Multisite)?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
  1. From WordPress dashboard go to Settings<\/strong> then click on General<\/strong>.<\/li>
  2. Check Anyone can register<\/strong>.<\/li>
  3. From Plugins <\/strong>item in the left pane click on Add new<\/strong>.<\/li>
  4. (Optional)<\/strong> Search for BuddyPress<\/strong> and Install then Activate.<\/li>
  5. If you’ve installed BuddyPress<\/strong>, Go to Settings > BuddyPress<\/strong>, Then from Options<\/strong> tab Deselect option (Allow registered members to delete their own accounts)<\/strong>.<\/li>
  6. Search for bbPress<\/strong> and Install then Activate. <\/li>
  7. Upload the envato-castle.zip<\/strong> file you found in the downloaded folder using Upload Plugin<\/strong> button at the top of Add Plugins<\/strong> page.<\/li>

    For Both WordPress Single and Multi Sites<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Finally, You’ll see in the next steps that we’ll generate another plugin called Envato Castle Client Plugin<\/strong> to be included in your WordPres projects you develop, This plugin will be prefixed<\/strong> with your Author Name<\/strong> to be unique for each seller so the same buyer<\/strong> will be able to use multiple plugins in the same website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Optional:<\/strong> It’ll be nice if you define the WordPress Constant WP_TEMP_DIR<\/strong> in your wp-config.php<\/strong> so the Envato Castle Server Plugin<\/strong> will use it as a temp directory instead of the default directory, So in case an error happened while generating your Client plugin, You’ll be able to remove the directory downloaded from the Temporary Dir. <\/p>\n\n\n

    \n\/** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. *\/\nif ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {\n\tdefine( 'ABSPATH', dirname( __FILE__ ) . '\/' );\n}\n\n\/** \n * -- Optional --\n *\n * Temp Directory using to save\n * downloaded EnvatoCastle's Clint plugin \n * *\/\nif( ! defined('WP_TEMP_DIR' ) ) {\n    define( 'WP_TEMP_DIR', ( ABSPATH . 'wp-content\/tmp' ) );\n}\n<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
    Warning: You might not be able to update your plugins after define WP_TEMP_DIR<\/strong> constant.
    Solution: <\/strong>Create the tmp<\/strong> directory inside your wp-content<\/strong> and modify the permission to 0755 ( -rwxr-xr-x<\/strong> )<\/p>\n\n\n\n
