Something like: <code> if (the forum you are in is a category) {do something}</code> I need to use it in forum.php Thanks!

Glad to hear they're including this option in the next version. Any idea when it will be ready or is it stable enough to use now? Thanks Ann _ck_ on "Forum is category" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-is-category/#post-2304 Fri, 05 Dec 2008 07:20:36 +0000 _ck_ 2304@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ This plugin should NOT be used with bbPress 1.0 It's already built in on bbPress 1.0 thetimediva on "Forum is category" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-is-category/#post-2303 Fri, 05 Dec 2008 04:10:57 +0000 thetimediva 2303@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ I'm experiencing the same problem with the "ADD NEW" on the front page of the site not working. I deactivated all the plug ins to see if there was a conflict. I activated your plug in first and the "ADD NEW" doesn't work. It's acting like a closed forum... no form. I just installed bbpress today so I'm using the latest version. Thanks Avram on "Forum is category" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-is-category/#post-1962 Sat, 20 Sep 2008 14:44:52 +0000 Avram 1962@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ Hello, If you want forums which are categories not to be clickable, and to be bolded (to act as real category), here's what you need to do: Open up front-page.php in your template directory for editing and: 1) Add following code right BELOW the <code><?php bb_get_header(); ?></code>: <pre><code><?php $forums_that_are_categories = bb_get_option("forum_is_category_forums"); if (!is_array($forums_that_are_categories)) $forums_that_are_categories = array(); ?></code></pre> 2) Look for <code><?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?></code> and first <code><?php endwhile; ?></code> after it, and replace everything BETWEEN those with: <pre><code><tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?>> <td><?php bb_forum_pad( '<div class="nest">' ); ?> <?php ob_start(); forum_id(); $fix_forum_id = ob_get_clean(); if (in_array($fix_forum_id, $forums_that_are_categories)) { echo ""; forum_name(); echo ""; } else { ?> <a href="<?php forum_link(); ?>"><?php forum_name(); ?></a><?php forum_description(); ?> <?php } ?> <?php bb_forum_pad( '</div>' ); ?></td> <td class="num"><?php forum_topics(); ?></td> <td class="num"><?php forum_posts(); ?></td> </tr></code></pre> 3) Save and re-upload file. Hope you like it :-) Demo: <a href="http://www.mladenovac.in.rs/forums/" rel="nofollow">http://www.mladenovac.in.rs/forums/</a> Nightgunner5 on "Forum is category" http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-is-category/#post-1502 Tue, 22 Jul 2008 15:49:19 +0000 Nightgunner5 1502@http://bbpress.org/plugins/ <blockquote>"No, not a new forum, sorry, bad miscommunication.

You definitely should be writing more plugins ;-) (At first I thought someone was borrowing from my "Read-Only Forums" but I can see you figured out the process by yourself - well done.) Two problems you need to look into - I get a huge page of warnings/errors when I "un-category" a forum in the admin menu. Also when active "Add New" doesn't seem to work correctly at all.

Use version 1.1, 1.0 does nothing.

Please upgrade your bbPress installation to the latest bbPress versio
