Compatible up to: 0.83
This bbpress plugin will guaranty that you and your forum moderators will never miss a new post made by some regular member. Inspired by the Post Notification plugin written by Thomas Klaiber is this plugin the best solution to get every new post into the forum moderator's mail box.
These days forum spam is a big problem and also bad messages could drive away your members. Just be the first reader of each new post and protect your forum for bad influences.
I receive the following error when trying to post as a Member user:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: notification_is_activated() in /my-plugins/moderator_notification.php on line 74
I receive the error after selecting the send post button, logged in as a Member. I set my key master id to receive notifications.
I am using bbpress 0.8.3.1. The only other plugins activated are Quote and Support Forum.
Any ideas?
You're right I missed something :D
Replace the row with:
if (mod_notification_is_activated($userdata->ID)) {
I thought that was the issue, but what not sure.
Thanks a lot. It is working great now.
the last bug(s) is removed in version 1.01
Great plugin. The only problem is that the DB names are hard coded for the default BB intallation (using BB_ as DB prefix), so you have to change them manually if you're using a different prefix for the DB, and/or if you've integrated BB with WP.
thanks for pointing me on that (I guess I copy/pasted some code bad code)
I will change that with the next release.
I use WP/BB integration ... that means, that wp and bb are using the same table for the users. When I activate this plugin and then post a new message the following error occurs:
bbPress database error: [Table 'MyDatabase.bb_users' doesn't exist]
SELECT um.meta_value AS role FROM bb_users AS u, bb_usermeta AS um WHERE u.ID = um.user_id AND um.meta_key = 'bb_capabilities' AND u.user_status = 0 AND u.ID = 2

Sorry! I just recognized that this "bug" was mentioned before.
I just tried running this plugin with bbpress 0.9.0.2 integrated with WP.
I had to change the user table names (bb_users and bb_usermeta to wp_users and wp_usermeta) to stop getting errors in the edit profile page.
Now there are no errors on the profile page, but no tickbox to select notification either... no new options at all.
Would it be easy to tweak this invaluable plugin for the latest bbpress?
Thanks
After a couple of tweaks, I got it working with 0.9.0.2
I don't get any error messages when I post a new topic but I don't get any emails. I've enabled the option in my profile and I have double checked my email address.
Any ideas?
I'm running bbPress 0.9.0.2
I also got this running by changing the user table names from bb_users and bb_usermeta to wp_users and wp_usermeta since I have my bbPress install integrated with WP,
However, when I get the email there is no "from" address - not sure why since my email address is set up under my user data in both WP and bbPress........I don't see what is wrong with this line from the code, but is there some modification I can make to this?
$header = 'From: '.bb_get_option('admin_email')."\n";
Hi Trisha,
I fixed this problem of no from address by doing the following:
Replace the line that reads:
mail($userdata->user_email, $subject, $msg, $header);
With this instead:
bb_mail($userdata->user_email, $subject, $msg);
Now, all the subscribed moderators receive proper emails when any new post appears on the site.
and how i could insert (in mail body) the post message and the post link ( topyc#post-xxx ) ?
Just installed this plugin on a new bbPress install (v. 1.0.2) and when I edit a user I see this error:
Warning: array_key_exists() [function.array-key-exists]: The second argument should be either an array or an object in /homepages/25/d263871326/htdocs/FSPW_NewWP/Forum/my-plugins/moderator-new-post-notification/moderator_notification.php on line 40
Repeated three times - if I try to edit the user and click on Update Profile, I get a blank page with that error repeated again three times followed by the headers already sent error message, telling me that the headers were already sent by /bb-includes/functions.bb-pluggable.php
Any ideas?
Update: I posted this in the plugin's official forum, unfortunately the developer cannot help because he does not have his bbPress integrated with Wordpress, as I do.
I'm on WP 2.8.6, bbPress 1.0.2, and version 1.0.1 of this plugin.
I suspect the problem is with the fact that because I have bbPress integrated with WP, my users table is NOT bb_users, but instead is wp_users. However, I did add to my bb-config.php file two lines I found in some WP integration instructions that I assume are supposed to tell bbPress about the user table, but it doesn't seem to make any difference at all - those lines are:
$bb->custom_user_table = 'wp_users';
$bb->custom_user_meta_table = 'wp_usermeta';
Also, I don't seem to be able to get the "deep" integration working - when I follow the instructions to add a require_once statement with a path to wp_blog_header.php to my bb-config.php file, I get 500 server errors. I don't know if this is part of the problem or not, but would like to fix that too since I really need to call some core WP functions from within bbPress but can't.
Since the developer can't help, is there anyone who has this working with an integrated setup?
ANOTHER UPDATE:
I fixed my problem with this plugin by modifying one line of it's code. The problem is caused by the fact that this plugin is not written to take into account users who have bbPress integrated with Wordpress and are sharing the user table. The plugin is hard-coded to use two tables called bb_users and bb_usermeta, which may not exist if you have a WP integrated setup sharing the user table.
So if you have the same problem, you can fix it by looking for this function in the plugin file moderator-notification.php (in version 1.0.1 of the plugin it starts at line 27):
function is_moderator($user_id) {
global $bbdb;
$mods = array('moderator', 'administrator', 'keymaster');
$is_mod = false;
$row = $bbdb->get_row("SELECT um.meta_value AS role
FROM bb_users AS u, bb_usermeta AS um
WHERE u.ID = um.user_id
AND um.meta_key = 'bb_capabilities'
AND u.user_status = 0
AND u.ID = $user_id
");
$arr = unserialize($row->role);
foreach($mods as $val) {
if (array_key_exists($val, $arr)) {
$is_mod = true;
break;
}
}
return $is_mod;
}
Modify this line:
FROM bb_users AS u, bb_usermeta AS um
to read:
FROM wp_users AS u, wp_usermeta AS um
OR whatever YOUR users and usermeta tables are named if different (they are MOST LIKELY wp_)
This worked for me, hopefully it will help someone else. I suggested to the plugin developer that he add an admin setting to let users designate the user table names since a lot of people use bbPress WITH Wordpress, and in my opinion this is a GREAT plugin once you get it working :)
worked like a charm. Great plugin
