Perfect.

Thank you for your help. ardentfrost on "search.php enhancement request" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/searchphp-enhancement-request#post-2527 Thu, 21 Dec 2006 20:50:23 +0000 ardentfrost 2527@http://bbpress.org/forums/ If neither of those work, you need to echo $bb_post->poster_id and see if you're getting anything. If not, you gotta figure out wtf $bb_post contains. ardentfrost on "search.php enhancement request" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/searchphp-enhancement-request#post-2526 Thu, 21 Dec 2006 20:37:46 +0000 ardentfrost 2526@http://bbpress.org/forums/ Try this <code>echo bb_get_user($bb_post->poster_id)->user_login</code> Or you can try to do it the way topics do it and just use this: <code>post_author_link();</code> That will also return the name as a link to their webpage. Worth a try I guess. chrishajer on "search.php enhancement request" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/searchphp-enhancement-request#post-2525 Thu, 21 Dec 2006 20:29:32 +0000 chrishajer 2525@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <code>bb_get_user($bb_post->poster_id)</code> also did not work (does not error, just shows no output.) also <code>$bb_post->poster_id</code> does not return anything either. chrishajer on "search.php enhancement request" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/searchphp-enhancement-request#post-2524 Thu, 21 Dec 2006 20:25:13 +0000 chrishajer 2524@http://bbpress.org/forums/ That does not work :) Here is the code I am using: <code><?php foreach ( $recent as $bb_post ) : ?> <li><a href="<?php post_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title($bb_post->topic_id); ?></a> <?php _e('Posted') ?> <?php echo date(__('F j, Y, h:i A'), bb_get_post_time()); ?><?php _e(' by ')?><?php get_user_name($bb_post->poster_id) ?></code> seems like it should work. It doesn't error out, it's just blank after the " by " Is there a list of functions, similar to the WP codex, where I could learn about them? Thanks. ardentfrost on "search.php enhancement request" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/searchphp-enhancement-request#post-2523 Thu, 21 Dec 2006 20:00:16 +0000 ardentfrost 2523@http://bbpress.org/forums/ You should be able to do this: <code>get_user_name($bb_post->poster_id)</code> Tell me if that doesn't work. chrishajer on "search.php enhancement request" http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/searchphp-enhancement-request#post-2516 Thu, 21 Dec 2006 17:09:33 +0000 chrishajer 2516@http://bbpress.org/forums/ I've modified search.php a bit to make the results a little more readable (to my eye) and I was wondering how to get the poster name, to display with the results for recent posts and relevant posts. I would like to display something like: <code><a href="<?php post_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title($bb_post->topic_id); ?></a> <?php _e('Posted') ?> <?php echo date(__('F j, Y, h:i A'), bb_get_p ost_time()); ?> [BY MEMBER]</code> the [BY MEMBER] part, to get the name of the member who made the post that is listed is the part I need help with. Thank you.
