  1. Whoops...I don't see any buttons. :(

    I have the bbcode-lite plugin active and working, so it's not an issue there. I have bbcode-buttons directly in the my-plugins directory, so seems fine there.

    Any suggestions on what I might be missing? Any common mistakes that a newb like me might've made?

  2. ArnyVee, I had the same problem with bbPress Smilies and BBcode Buttons, I changed the permissions of my-plugins to 755, and they both worked fine!

  3. Thanks jleuze!

    _ck_, is changing the permissions to 755 suggested or not? I remember reading on one of the topics that you posted changing the permissions was not suggested. Any insight on this?

    755 is okay, it's 777 that's bad because 777 means world-writeable
    777 on a public facing directory means if a hacker can get a file in there, or change the contents of an existing file, they can execute it over the web (this is why I suggest any 777 upload directory should be made ABOVE the web root) But I digress because this plugin has nothing to do with writable directories.

    In theory a properly configured server should not need you to 755 directories for plugins to work, but in some cases you may have to fix thing. Just never use 777 unless absolutely required by design.

  5. Worked fine for me in v1.01, thanks.

  6. I installed this plugin, activated it, change the permission to 755, buttons are showing, but it's not working :)

    Text is appearing like this: [b] fdsfsdfsdf[/b]

    Any ideas?

    I'm using 1.0.1

  7. I am also experiencing a weird URL problem. After you type a post and want to post the url at the bottom or middle of a post. You hit URL enter the address, the name of the site, its posting it at the very top of your posting. Instead of where your cursor is in the thread or where you want to post the link. Using ie8 and bbpress 0.9.4

  8. It's possible this has been mentioned earlier in the thread on this plugin, but there are 6 pages of text and I'm too tired to read them all.

    When I first installed this plugin, I could not get it to work. In tooling around in the JavaScript file, I noticed that on line #11

    if (BBcodeButtons[i].access) {var accesskey = ' accesskey = "' + BBcodeButtons[i].access + '"'} else {var accesskey = '';}

    There is a semicolon missing inside the } right before the else statement. Once I put the ; in, the buttons came up just fine.

    Just an FYI for people who are having troubles.

    Could anyone tell me how I could add Scrippets to this?

  10. I changed my-plugins directory to 755, and that got them working on a new installation. Otherwise, no changes made at all.

  11. Uhm, it doesn't work at all for me.

    Everyone is actually experiencing a different problem.

    1. For this plugin to work, you must first have bbcode-lite also installed.

    2. For this plugin to work, if you have a custom template you must have bb_head and bb_foot in the template

    So first make sure you have bbcode-lite installed.
    Then test it by switching to the default built in kakukei template.

    If it doesn't work after that, you have a genuine problem.

    Any way to get the NULL taken out when a user trys to post a link in IE? Also the users are unable to select text and then use the URL button to add a link to the existing text, it places the link at the top of the post box and inserts null where your text should be.

    TahoeKid something must have changed in IE8 as it works in IE6
    I'll have to research the problem sometime.

    Update:

    it can never be fixed - it was broken on purpose by Microsoft in IE7
    read here:
    http://www.hunlock.com/blogs/Working_around_IE7s_prompt_bug,_er_feature

    I won't be fixing this anytime soon as it would require a custom dhtml dialog replacement.

    It might be possible to just insert [url] [/url] when IE is detected.
    Or simply exclude the URL button for IE7+IE8 users.

    Yup, all these solutions suck, sorry, that's IE.

  16. I can tell the same as Gravitydk: nothing showed until I set /my-plugins/ folder to 755.
    That solved instantly.

    This plugin seems to be working in version 1.01 or others have gotten it to work so why is the plugin stating that it is not compatible with the latest version of bbpress? Can I assume that it will work if I download and install

  18. What is with all the 'inline' CSS in this?

    The plugin functions really well, but a ton of editing was needed to create a decent looking style.

  19. For some reason I can't see the buttons on my forum.

    I am a non-programmer and want to integrate buttons on my BBpress forum.

    I have BBcode Lite (1.0.3) , BBcode Buttons Toolbar (0.0.9) , and Allow Images (0.9) all in my-plugins folder and all are activated.

    I think I know that BBcode Lite is working because I tested the use of the [b] bold [/b] tag in a recent post.

    I use businesslike orange 1.0 as my theme that has this right at the end of the foooter.php file:
    <?php do_action('bb_foot'); ?>
    </body>
    </html>

    I tested it by switching to the default template - Kakumei 1.0 - but still no buttons appear.

    What am I missing to make this work?

    Thanks!

  20. Fairly easy question i think but just cant figure it out myself.

    I would like url's to open to blank tab or window when after entered using the 'url' button.

    i know of the target="_blank" code but cannot see a place to insert into the plugin code. Can someone point me there please?
