good point !
I’ve just released bbp style pack version 3.6.0
bbp style pack
if you go into
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum dispay and check item 5 Add “Create New Topic” link O(and change text if you wish)
it will add a link at the top and a form at the bottom.
Sorry – about to go on holiday so haven’t time to style this as a button !
Hi Robin, the link #bsptopic takes me to the home URL -which has to do with the .htaccess, I guess, as I have WordPress in a subfolder- so I changed it to https://mysite/../#bsptopic in bbp-style-pack/includes/functions.php which works just fine but will be destroyed when updating the plug-in. How can I get #bsptopic to work properly or where do I put the URL https://mysite/../#bsptopic where it’s safe. Adding to the child theme functions.php doesn’t work, of course, and trying a new-topic.php with snippets from the functions.php in a mu-plugin directory gave me the white screen 🙁
as it’s very near xmas and I’m pretty tied up, can you show the altered function that you created, which will save me time in finding it.
thanks
Hi, thanks, but I didn’t change a function, I just changed 2 links in functions.php
327. function bsp_new_topic_button () {
global $bsp_style_settings_buttons;
if (!empty ($bsp_style_settings_buttons[‘new_topic_description’] )) $text=$bsp_style_settings_buttons[‘new_topic_description’] ;
else $text=__(‘Create New Topic’, ‘bbp-style-pack’) ;
if ($bsp_style_settings_buttons[‘button_type’] == 2) $class=$bsp_style_settings_buttons[‘Buttonclass’] ;
else $class=’bsp_button1′ ;
if ( bbp_current_user_can_access_create_topic_form() && !bbp_is_forum_category() ) {
echo ‘https://mysite/leden/forum/ledenforum/#bsptopic”>’.$text.’‘ ;
}
}
And
400. function bsp_create_new_topica () {
global $bsp_forum_display ;
if (!empty ($bsp_forum_display[‘Create New Topic Description’])) $text=$bsp_forum_display[‘Create New Topic Description’] ;
else $text=__(‘Create New Topic’, ‘bbp-style-pack’) ;
if ( bbp_current_user_can_access_create_topic_form() && !bbp_is_forum_category() ) echo ‘<div class=”bsp-new-topic”> https://mysite/leden/forum/ledenforum/#bsptopic”>’.$text.’</div>’ ;
}
Both links were #bsptopic and an update will erase my URL’s. But #bsptopic leads to the homepage, unfortunately.
Merry Xmas!
thanks, that was exactly the help I needed to get to the right code 🙂
I’ve just released version 3.7.0 which has a filter you can use to change that link.
If you update and then you add this code to your child theme‘s functions file
add_filter ('bsp_new_topic_button', 'rew_change_button' ) ;
add_filter ('bsp_create_new_topica', 'rew_change_button' ) ;
function rew_change_button () {
$href = 'https://mysite/leden/forum/ledenforum/#bsptopic' ;
return $href ;
}
then it won’t be affected.
Please come back and confirm that it works for you.
A charm! Thank you very much, very glad the code is safe now 🙂
Again: merry Xmas and thanks a lot!
