bbPress 0.8 “Desmond” Released!

February 8, 2007 9:00 pm — Releases — mdawaffe

After some “last minute” bug squashing, here we are: another new bbPress release ready for download. bbPress “Desmond” 0.8.

In addition to some features we already mentioned on the blog (here’s a few to recap):

there’s a couple new ones that are among our most frequently requested:

  • Better timezone support; You’re no longer restricted to showing all your times in the timezone of your server (what an odd requirement that was)
  • Whitespace preservation of `backticked` <code> blocks.

Upgrade Note: Your custom templates and stylesheets must now be placed in a sub-directory of my-templates/ rather than in that directory directly. Try putting your files in something like my-templates/my-hot-theme/ then selecting your theme from your bbPress’ Presentation Admin panel.

To get into the nitty gritty about what’s changed, here’s a list of tickets closed and two of code changed [2] (I couldn’t get trac to show them all on one page there’s so many!).

Translators can download the POT file for bbPress 0.8.

    This is just what bbPress needs. I especially like the option to delete forums and multibyte tags. Well done!

    You have a bug in the download zip version of the site the path gets out wrong, you have to go to bb-includes/functions.php and in the code of the function bb_convert_path_base change the the following line : $r = $to_base . substr($path, strlen($from_base)) . $last_char;

    with

    $r = $to_base.”/” . substr($path, strlen($from_base)) . $last_char;

    and it works

    Regards,Marian

    Marian,

    Could you open a new ticket it our bug tracking system: http://trac.bbpress.org/ (log in with your bbpress.org username/password).

    That function has changed a bit since the last release. Can you describe the symptoms of the problem in addition to your solution above to see if these recent changes also fix your problem?

    Thanks!
