Hey everyone,

I’m trying to do 3 things.

1. I want posts inactive longer then a set time to not be propagated to the Latest Discussions on the forum Index.

2. I want hidden private forums to not show up on the Latest Discussion list unless they would normally be allowed to see it.

3. I want the forum name to show up in another column in the Latest Discussion list.

I’m using the Private Forums plug-in, and Latest Discussion is only visible on my site from bbpress/index.

For 1. I found a plug-in but it’s no longer supported and I couldn’t clean up the Syntax error myself.

For 2 I can find nothing.

For 3 using another forum post I’ve already edited my templates to include the extra column and I almost see how to do it myself, but I can’t see where to get the name of the forum from the topic.

As always, thank you for whatever help you can offer.

For 3, from the Genealogías theme:

function gs_topic_forum_link() {

global $topic;

if ($topic) {

echo '<a href="' . get_forum_link($topic->forum_id) . '">' . get_forum_name($topic->forum_id) . '</a>';



}

}

For the private forums, i do the following (considering only one private forum, having id 22):

add_filter('get_posts_where', 'ryuuko_staff_where_posts');



function ryuuko_staff_where_posts($where) {

if (!bb_is_user_logged_in() || !bb_current_user_can('moderate')) {

$where .= " AND p.forum_id <> '22' ";

}

return $where;

}



add_filter('get_topics_where', 'ryuuko_staff_where_topics');

function ryuuko_staff_where_topics($where) {

if (!bb_is_user_logged_in() || !bb_current_user_can('moderate')) {

$where .= " AND t.forum_id <> '22' ";

}

return $where;

}



add_filter('get_forums', 'ryuuko_staff_forums');

function ryuuko_staff_forums($forums) {

if (!bb_is_user_logged_in() || !bb_current_user_can('moderate')) {

$forum_key = -1;

foreach ($forums as $key => $forum)

if (intval($forum->forum_id) == 22) {

$forum_key = $key;

break;

}

unset($forums[$key]);

}

return $forums;

}



add_action('bb_forum.php_pre_db', 'ryuuko_forum_redirect');

function ryuuko_forum_redirect($forum_id) {

if (!bb_is_user_logged_in() || !bb_current_user_can('moderate')) {

if ($forum_id == 22)

bb_die("You can't see this!");

}

}

I was looking to do #3 as well. This solution works like a champ. Thanks!

Do not use the Private Forums plugin, it has not been updated in awhile and has bugs.

Use my Hidden Forums plugin instead. The code above is not sufficient in itself.
