Signatures won't update when you try to change them in Edit Profile. No error messages to be found.

You need to add tagged versions to bump up the version on the extend page.

Just add a new sub-directory to the "tags" directory named the same as the version number, then copy your trunk files that match that version to it.

It seems like this new version you've done has fixed the issue- yaay. It was only occurring if I tried to post a second time in a thread I'd already posted in once with the signature. Seems to be solved.

Thanks for all your great work on plugins around here lately.

If I have any other bugs with this, I'll be sure to let you know.

Please try this version and see if it makes the error go away:

Unfortunately, I'm getting the following error:

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /path_to/my-plugins/bb-signatures.php on line 127

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /path_to/my-plugins/bb-signatures.php:127) in /path_to/bb-includes/pluggable.php on line 168

Any thoughts?

-> just a suggestion, don't worry

"To see a signature somewhere else you'd have to call
echo add_signature_to_post('');"

-> I mean for example in profile.php

"I only worked on signatures for a day or two, it's very very beta."

-> well, it does its job!

I'll look into the stylesheet bug though.

To see a signature somewhere else you'd have to call
echo add_signature_to_post('');
which might work but won't apply other bbpress filters to it. It also needs to know the post and user id from $bb_post so if it's outside the loop it won't work at all.

I only worked on signatures for a day or two, it's very very beta.

If I wanted to include signature in any other place is there any function I can call?

'.signature {clear:both;border-top:1px solid #222; font-size:85%; color:#777;padding:1em;}'

that appears in the plugin control panel is not working for me neither unless I copy it in the stylesheet

I don't know if this is a problem with my custom theme or if anybody else is having the same thing. What I'm going to do is to create a class "forumsignature" in my style sheet, I'm going to define a width in pixels there and next I'll change <fieldset> for <fieldset class="forumsignature"> in the plugin.

Yep, I guessed so

"The svn doesn't seem to be updating the versions on the extend page here so here's a direct version:
http://ckon.wordpress.com/files/2007/08/bb-signatures.txt?v "

I'm going to give it a try right now

Yes, the edit profile page

"You'd need to reduce the <table width="100%">
but maybe also textarea style="width:90%;" "

-> it didn't work. <table width="30%"> only reduces the form area

"Are you using a custom template?"

-> yes a 800 x 600 two columns, narrow column right

"I am now removing width="100%" from the new/next version."

-> well, I'll wait. Does it need a table? Perhaps a div plus some css would be better.

You'd need to reduce the <table width="100%">
but maybe also textarea style="width:90%;"

Are you using a custom template? Seems to work fine in the few templates I've tried.

If you still have trouble, post a screenshot image if you can.

I am now removing width="100%" from the new/next version.

Oh well. After I get the polls plugin going I'll go back to signatures. Signatures I'll never use myself but I want polls...

http://trac.bbpress.org/browser/trunk/bb-includes/template-functions.php#L163

The real solution is some kind of hook in the template loader so before and after it does the "include", then it lets you insert anything you want on any template. Now that would make for super flexibility.

I'm not sure there's one that does the same for edit_form(), which is probably an oversight.

If you have plugins for smilies and/or allow images in post text, it will obey them, this is probably a good thing and desired.

You can set the minimum user level needed to show signatures and also the ability not to repeat a user's signature more than once per page.

Instructions: install, activate, tinker with settings in admin menu

If you would like the optional toggle on new/edit posts to disable signatures you must edit the edit-form.php & post-form.php templates and place at or near the bottom:
<? bb_signatures_checkbox(); ?>
(you can wrap it in a DIV and float it to the left, right style anyway you'd like
sorry but there's no way to do this directly through a plugin)

Here's a fancier version that I use:
<div style="float:left" ><? if (function_exists('bb_signatures_checkbox')) {bb_signatures_checkbox();} ?></div>

Version History:
0.05 :slashes & autop fixed, replaced input with textarea, max_lines now supported in post-processing, max_length checked in realtime (as well as post processing)
0.06 :internal testing/bugfix
0.07 :per-post signature toggle
0.08 :toggle for allow html and allow images should now work
0.10 :basic functioning admin menu
0.11 :more intelligent admin menu

I now have per-post signature disable ability on v0.07 though sadly you must edit two templates to get that ability, there is no way to hook the form from the plugin, at least none that I can find in the API.

What's really ironic is that I will most likely never use this plugin on my own forums, ha!
