This is how pagination was determined (via $view_count / $page)</p> <p>But the new bb_query_class is short-sighted as it simply returns the number of results it found with the LIMIT attached, which is useless.</p> <p>This essentially is a bug. Surprised no-one noticed it sooner. I don't have 0.8.3 running on any large site so I never saw it before.</p> <p>I'm trying to find a work-around for my own plugins (ie.

I just opened my forum a week ago and I'm trying to keep up with all the traffic and add the most important missing features.</p> <p>The one thing that is very frustrating is that administration and moderation in bbPress is not only virtually non-existent, but it's not even all in one place.

That's a sorely lacking feature. Your move-it plugin almost fits the bill, but I have to create a new topic first, and then move the post, and then delete my original post in the new topic, or just make it say "look below, moving post into topic". </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/my-threads-user-specific-views#post-9824 Fri, 03 Aug 2007 03:45:16 +0000 _ck_ 9824@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Just out of concerned curiosity, what other plugins have you found that don't support the trunk?</p> <p>I suppose I am going to have to break down and setup a testing account with the trunk this weekend or so.</p> <p>We need a developer plugin that injects a bunch of fake new users and fake messages for testing. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/my-threads-user-specific-views#post-9713 Wed, 01 Aug 2007 14:20:13 +0000 HowToGeek 9713@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I might end up helping you with that...

This new view registation method takes away massive potential from views.</p> <p>For example you can't manipulate the data before and/or after the BB_QUERY.</p> <p>Here's how I find "most viewed" and "least viewed" topics and create new views for them. How the heck is this even remotely possible with the new method? The new method also takes away all natural mysql query methods, making things much more complicated and easier to make mistakes on query configuration.</p> <pre><code>function most_views( $view ) { global $bbdb, $topics, $view_count; if ($view==&#39;most-views&#39;) {$sort=&quot;DESC&quot;;} if ($view==&#39;least-views&#39;) {$sort=&quot;ASC&quot;;} if ($view==&#39;least-views&#39; || $view==&#39;most-views&#39;) { $limit = bb_get_option(&#39;page_topics&#39;); $where = apply_filters(&#39;get_latest_topics_where&#39;,&#39;&#39;); $most_views = $bbdb-&gt;get_results(&quot;SELECT topic_id FROM $bbdb-&gt;topicmeta WHERE meta_key=&#39;views&#39; ORDER BY cast(meta_value as UNSIGNED) $sort LIMIT $limit&quot;); foreach (array_keys($most_views) as $i) {$trans[$most_views[$i]-&gt;topic_id] =&#38; $most_views[$i];} $ids = join(&#39;,&#39;, array_keys($trans)); $topics =&quot;SELECT * FROM $bbdb-&gt;topics WHERE topic_status=0 AND topic_id IN ($ids) $where ORDER BY FIELD(topic_id, $ids)&quot;; $topics = $bbdb-&gt;get_results($topics); $view_count = count($topics); $topics = bb_append_meta( $topics, &#39;topic&#39; ); }}</code></pre> <p>.<br /> Absolutely no way to do that purely though BB_QUERY, at least to my limited knowledge. You'd have to hook BB_QUERY and check for what it's doing on every call and that's nasty. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/my-threads-user-specific-views#post-9588 Mon, 30 Jul 2007 07:42:09 +0000 _ck_ 9588@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Sigh, I guess I'll tempt fate and install the latest trunk.
