  • OK. I’m thinking that I could somehow modify this function in functions.bb-users.php:

    function bb_get_user( $user_id, $args = null ) {
    global $wp_users_object;
    $user = $wp_users_object->get_user( $user_id, $args );
    if ( is_wp_error($user) )
    return false;
    return $user;
    }

    After reading the whole of that thread you linked, I think my use of “fork” was a poor choice of words. All I was trying to say is that the standalone code isn’t going away. It does seem from reading the thread that the intent (at least the original intent) was to officially release 1.1 as a “solid stand alone” (JJJ’s words).

    Thanks! Clearly, bbPress is officially going to be a plugin for WordPress going forward (but as you note, the code is there to fork for those who still want a standalone version).

    2) When will this next version be released (1.1? 1.03? a wordpress plug-in??)

    Never.

    Never.

    First alpha is coming soon.

    I don’t think this is all true. Everything I have read from “official” sources is that the stand-alone version of bbPress will still be available, and looking at trac.bbpress.org, there is still a 1.1 version in development that has only 5-6 tickets remaining. Do you have a source for stating that 1.1 will never be released? That would be helpful.

    I just obtained the “alpha” version of the Gigya bbPress plugin directly from a developer at Gigya, who emailed it to me. Unfortunately, it’s been in “alpha” for more than a year and they are unwilling to support it or help me get it to work. It’s on my backlog to take a look at this and find out what the problem is.

    For what it’s worth, the Gigya wordpress plugin works pretty well, though last time I tried it, it was not pulling Facebook users’ profile pics, which is potentially confusing to the user. Otherwise I was impressed with it.

    thank you zaerl!

    Actually, I registered a new account that is able to post to the Plugins forum.

    I am guessing this is an authentication issue. I never registered “3sixty” at this site, so I assume bbpress.org is pulling in login information from buddypress.org or wordpress.org. kind of sucks… but I can work around it by posting under a different account name.

    Hmm… What part of “social network” is bbpress not?

    A social network is a social structure made up of individuals (or organizations) called “nodes,” which are tied (connected) by one or more specific types of interdependency, such as friendship, kinship, common interest, financial exchange, dislike, sexual relationships, or relationships of beliefs, knowledge or prestige. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_network
