Thanks for this code. Ive been waiting for something like this, and was about to start working on a plugin to do the same thing.

My final solution was to make bbPress ‘dumb’ when it comes to logged out users. I.e., it could either be clever and say “there are topics, but you’re not allowed to see them until you login” or it could just say “there are no topics”.

Thanks for the code! I have it working but I dont follow what you mean with the quoted login.

Is this a shortcode setting, or are you changing the default message of "Oh bother! No forums were found here!".

i'm sure we'll be seeing an update soon that will asplode everything we've done so far, but until then, very cool workaround.

WR!

The basic aim was to hide the contents of topics in a bbPress 2.0 forum from any users not logged in. This makes for a nice private forum.

I found suggestions about making forums hidden, private and so on but none of them really worked as they hid them for logged in users too.

My final solution was to make bbPress ‘dumb’ when it comes to logged out users. I.e., it could either be clever and say “there are topics, but you’re not allowed to see them until you login” or it could just say “there are no topics”.

The following code does the latter, dumb version by hooking into the forums, topics and replies loops.

[code]function pj_hla_logged_in_topics($have_posts){
if (!is_user_logged_in()){
$have_posts = null;
}
return $have_posts;
}
add_filter('bbp_has_topics', 'pj_hla_logged_in_topics');
add_filter('bbp_has_forums', 'pj_hla_logged_in_topics');
add_filter('bbp_has_replies', 'pj_hla_logged_in_topics');[/code]

I simply placed this within my theme’s functions.php but you could just as easily wrap this in a function.

Hope that helps someone!

IF field_name exists, THEN "do not print" field_name

Unfortunately, I don't know bbPress too well to know which pages to edit, and my PHP coding is VERY poor. Please help if you can. Thanks.

I hate to bump posts, but I really need a resolution for this...

However, all the info submitted via registration is posted on the user's profile page (which is PUBLIC!). I would like some of these fields to be hidden from the public (and only viewable by the administrators, via the admin section).

So, if a user posts their phone number during registration, I DO NOT want the phone number posted online for everyone to see. I want it invisible to the public, and only viewable by my admins.

Can anyone help me do this???

add_action( 'bb_init', 'enqueueJQuery' );

function enqueueJQuery() {
    if ( !wp_script_is( 'jquery' ) )
        wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
}

add_action('bb_init', 'jquery_please_initialize');

with:

// Add here all the template files that need special treatment
add_action('bb_topic.php', 'jquery_please_initialize');
add_action('bb_edit-post.php', 'jquery_please_initialize');
// et cetera

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: jQuery please
Plugin URI: http://www.the.url.com
Description: I really need jQuery
Version: 1.0
Author: Me
Author URI: http://www.the.url.com
*/

add_action('bb_init', 'jquery_please_initialize');
add_action('bb_head', 'jquery_please_js', 100);

function jquery_please_initialize()
{
   bb_enqueue_script('jquery');
}

function jquery_please_js()
{ ?>
<script type="text/javascript">//<![CDATA[
// Your script goes here
//]]></script>
<?php
}

?>

You *need* to get it to work, that's the proper way of doing it. You should figure out what you were doing wrong.

But I can use this technique to do the same thing, just the opposite way around, so thanks for the help! I did it like this:

<?php if ( in_array( bb_get_location(), array( 'login-page', 'register-page' ) ) ) echo "<script type='text/javascript' src='http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js'></script>\n"; ?>

I tried to use bb_enqueue_script( 'jquery' ); in there but couldn't get that to work!

Can anyone shed some light on where and when and why jquery is loaded? And how could I get it to load up for the login.php page as well? (rather than simply putting the jquery call in header.php, which would mean it gets called twice for some pages!)

I looked through a load of bb-includes but didn't get too far!

Good luck!
