I suspect that would not work either. I tried it in my forum, as a regular member, on a post I wrote a week ago, and I cannot edit it. Is it possible you have a longer time set for the edit lock? A really large number there will allow editing for a long time, and a negative number would probably make them editable by the member who wrote it forever, without expiration.</p> <p>By default, members should not be able to edit any other members posts, and members should only be able to edit their own posts for the configured period of time. Keymasters can edit anything at any time. Is that not your experience? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/users-able-to-edit-posts-hack-need-help#post-16915 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 16:30:26 +0000 mciarlo 16915@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I did and I cannot.

It just redirects to the forum home page when I am not logged in. When I log in and try to access the edit.php url, I get redirected to the forum home page as well.</p> <p>I just checked on your forum and I cannot edit posts made by anyone else when I am not logged in. When I log in, I still cannot edit posts made by any other members. I tried this URL:<br /> <a href="http://www.cairoshell.com/forum/edit.php?id=10314" rel="nofollow">http://www.cairoshell.com/forum/edit.php?id=10314</a></p> <p>FYI, the member who created the reply can edit the post for a period of time that is set in bb-config.php. And keymasters can edit posts made by anyone for an indefinite period of time. Is it possible you are using a plugin that gives members more permission than normal? Or that the user seeing this edit functionality is logged in as a keymaster?</p> <p>I am not seeing the problem you describe, so if your users can edit other members posts, you need to look at the permissions that they have. The default installation does not do this in any forum I've checked, including this forum, your forum and my own forum. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/users-able-to-edit-posts-hack-need-help#post-16908 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 14:44:10 +0000 mciarlo 16908@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Users on my forum are able to use the following url to edit posts:</p> <p>http ://www.cairoshell.com/forum/edit.php?id=['post id here'] </p> <p>How do I fix this?

(wahoo!)</p> <p><strong>PROBLEM:</strong><br /> If private-forums plugin is installed, users below moderator capabilities will have a BLANK Pick a Section dropdown on post-form.php. If they go ahead and try to click "submit" on their post, they get an error: Forum topic is closed. (error is bogus, obviously, because they are trying to post a NEW topic).</p> <p><strong>SOLUTION</strong><br /> In the /my-plugins/private-forums.php, replace line 294:<br /> <code>$new_forums[] = $forum;</code><br /> with:<br /> <code>$new_forums[$forum-&gt;forum_id] = $forum;</code></p> <p><strong>WHY IT WORKS</strong><br /> The $new_forums array replaces the global $forums array with just the forums that user is permitted to see. The $forums array uses the forum_id as the array index. Without this fix, the $forums array will have the default index, i.e. 0, 1, 2, 3...</p> <p>If your forum ids are (a) ordered numerically by their id and (b) no numbers are 'skipped' in the ids, you may not notice this issue. However, in my case, my forum ids are in the order "6, 7, 1, 10, 9" because we have added and deleted and reordered them over the life of the forum.</p> <p>Hopefully this helps someone.<br /> Cheers,<br /> k </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/a-bug-found#post-13284 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 21:07:37 +0000 finalwebsites 13284@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>actually you didn't delete the post/thread, but you're right favorites are also not removed if your remove a thread </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/a-bug-found#post-13280 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 18:17:46 +0000 fel64 13280@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Is the tag count adjusted?

I wouldn't normally test it with the support forum plugin so I wasn't aware of that behavior.</p> <p>Not sure why My Views is trashing the support forum views but I'll investigate further sometime soon - it might have to do with the way My Views lets you re-order the views, though it should not delete any.</p> <p>(you're using v0.08 correct?) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/support-forum-038-my-views-compatibility#post-11134 Thu, 27 Sep 2007 09:30:39 +0000 neyoung 11134@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I have both the My Views and Support Forums plugins installed. They work well together except for 1 thing. Both plugins add a new filter to bb_views.</p> <p>If both plugins are running the new views from My Views are the only ones to show up. The Support Forums views are not listed. After poking through the code I was able to fix it by making sure that the Support Forums bb_views filter was added AFTER the My Views bb_views filter. To do so edit support-forum.php .</p> <p><strong>Replace</strong> line 432<br /> --------------------------------<br /> <code>add_filter(&#39;bb_views&#39;, array(&#38;$this, &#39;addViews&#39;));</code><br /> --------------------------------</p> <p><strong>With</strong><br /> --------------------------------<br /> <code>add_filter(&#39;bb_views&#39;, array(&#38;$this, &#39;addViews&#39;), 200);</code><br /> --------------------------------</p> <p>You should now be able to see the views from both plugins.</p> <p>I'm no expert, but it seems like when My Views is adding my_views_init to the bb_views filter its overwriting whatever Support Forums has already added to the filter. Just a guess. I'm sure ck, so1o, mdawaffe, or SamBauers will know exactly what is going on.</p> <p>Enjoy! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/i-cant-install-bbpress#post-10809 Thu, 06 Sep 2007 00:45:28 +0000 chrishajer 10809@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>For future reference, the database password was wrong in the config.php. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/i-cant-install-bbpress#post-10806 Wed, 05 Sep 2007 23:57:59 +0000 llabrealityblog 10806@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Chris was very helpful in fixing the problems.

I think there is just a simple problem with the config.php database details now. Can you verify that these 4 are absolutely accurate in your config.php?</p> <pre><code>define(&#39;BBDB_NAME&#39;, &#39;xxxxxxxx&#39;); define(&#39;BBDB_USER&#39;, &#39;xxxxxxxxx&#39;); define(&#39;BBDB_PASSWORD&#39;, &#39;xxxxxxxx&#39;); define(&#39;BBDB_HOST&#39;, &#39;xxxxxxxx&#39;);</code></pre> <p>The host might not be localhost. Mine is not. And you don't have a syntax error in the file (like a missing or extra quote) but something like one of those values is inaccurate. Posting it here in edited form won't help, you have to verify that the database name, user, password and host are all accurate. You're the only one who can do that. Once you have that, we need to get back to the original problem. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/i-cant-install-bbpress#post-10745 Mon, 03 Sep 2007 19:24:04 +0000 llabrealityblog 10745@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Okay, I moved the config.php file, and the same error keeps coming up.</p> <p>I've also deleted the forums folder and moved the bbPress folder to /wordpress. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/i-cant-install-bbpress#post-10743 Mon, 03 Sep 2007 19:21:13 +0000 llabrealityblog 10743@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>No, it was in the control panel. </p>
