Ultimately I'm back to where I began. I want to continue using the WP top bar but have the edit account option link to bbPress's account page.

No, I am not aware a way to easily keep the admin bar but filter the user link so that it goes to the bbPress profile page instead of your wp-admin user.

Something like this would need to be a custom plugin.

I mentioned various things you can do, without touching virtually any code, that would help keep users from hitting /wp-admin - unfortunately hacking the admin-bar is not one of those things.

Ultimately I'm back to where I began. I want to continue using the WP top bar but have the edit account option link to bbPress's account page.

Except these links would be static, so even if they had logged in that link in the header would still say "login"?

I'm not a coder, so creating dynamic user links in the header area isn't something I can do.

Is there a plugin or code available to implement a dynamic login/user area like what is seen on this site?

Then you would have a link in your site/theme that takes your members to the bbPress profile page where they can edit their profile.

If you disable the admin bar and use login/registrations forms via shortcodes there is really no reason for the users to ever use /wp-admin unless the specifically went to it.

Let me rephrase, for a specific example: in the top WP bar, how can I change the user's "Edit profile" link to use their bbPress profile page?

Shortcodes: http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-shortcodes

When someone clicks on "Howdy, Name" they are given the option to "Edit their profile". This takes them to wp-admin rather than their bbPress profile page.

I want to ensure all users except admins are directed to their bbPress profile page.

All that plugin you linked to does is stop users creating content once inside the area I don't want them to visit at all.

This plugin will also help http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-no-admin/

i'm under wordpress 3.0.5 and the latest version of bbPress

for defualt's permalinks (standard profile.php?id=.. type)

you can try this replacement:

replace:
$my_profile_destination = $my_forums_directory."profile/".esc_attr( str_replace( " ", "-", strtolower( $user_login ) ) )."/edit";

with:
$my_profile_destination = $my_forums_directory."profile.php?id=".$current_user->ID;

isn't there any WP plugin for this? we should take it into something more customizable. To make it easy to use, what do you think? I'm not experienced with lots of wp code but this could be helpful for others too.

anyone willing to help?

works for me and

http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/nofollow#post-58232 is work for me too (bbsignatures)

and all links is nofollow now. Thanks

I am sorry I was not back earlier on this post but I have managed to solved everything without touching the core and my method is extensible to whatever you want to do.


//add target=_blank to post links
function bb_target_blank( $text ) {
return preg_replace_callback('||i', 'bb_target_blank_callback', $text);
}
function bb_target_blank_callback( $matches ) {
$text = $matches[1];
return "";
}

add_filter('post_text', 'bb_target_blank');

Here you go

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: My own tweak for my forums
Plugin URI: http://bbpress.org/
Description: Fine tuning codes for my forum
Author: Your name
Author URI: http://www.myforum.com/
Version: 0.1
*/

add_filter('post_text', 'bb_rel_nofollow');
?>

I guess that's what most people want to do

since i have the forum in a different frame of my page, i'd have to add the attribute "target_top" to every link.

The code below is only for target_blank, or would it be possible to replace every "blank" with "top" and have it working?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

And how do you make the code into a plugin? you copy and paste into a text file, save it as *.php and upload the file in the bbpress plugins folder?

Thank you very much, every help is very appreciated!

The Process

I wasn't able to figure out a way to get it done without editing the core. I suggest the post_author_link() function around line 1747 of bb-includes/functions.bb-template.php be edited to allow the option of only returning the link rather than echoing it. That way, you can output the author links in your template (post.php) using something like this:

<?php bb_rel_nofollow(post_author_link(false)); ?>

With the "false" parameter telling WordPress to return the link rather than echo it. I believe that would work for future releases.

As for now, I believe you'll have to open bb-includes/function.bb-template.php and edit the post_author_link and post_author_avatar_link functions to add rel="nofollow" to the "a" tags. Those functions begin around line 1747 of bb-includes/function.bb-template.php.

Hope that helps.

I've got intergration happening with shared login/registrations, tables in same DB.

Thanks for any help :)
