You’re not actually trying to use Forum Is Category plugin on 1.0 are you?
It’s built in. Unless you mean you are having trouble with the built in feature.
No, no no, bb_is_admin is to detect if you are in the admin control panel
First line should be
<?php if (bb_current_user_can('administrate')) { ?>
bbPress is NOT a plugin. You do NOT add it from your admin panel.
You install it as a separate program.
I believe the plugin page for Avatar Upload has a few suggestions as to how to use it in WordPress.
You can also find other help via this tag
https://bbpress.org/forums/tags/avatar-upload
Please make an attempt to search the extend plugin section for solutions:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/restrict-registration-for-bbpress
Before you reply to a topic, please look at how old it is and take that into account.
A little curiosity and trial and error will take you far when learning how to accomplish things.
If you look on front-page.php you’ll see it uses forum_description() so you can try
<?php forum_description(); ?> in your topic.php template.
If that doesn’t work, you may need to specify the $forum_id
<?php forum_description($forum_id); ?>
If Plesk file manager can see it but not delete it, something is very wrong.
If you are on shared hosting you may have to ask the host to delete them as root.
Make sure you are crystal clear as to which directories with your host because I’ve seen hosts wipe out the wrong thing with an underpaid, undertrained tech.
There are only 150 plugins for bbPress and at least half of those don’t work with 1.0 because 1.0 is only a week old.
So spend a few minutes in the extend section and you can answer your own questions quite easily.
If you want to use plugins made for bbPress 0.9, use bbPress 0.9
Since bbPress 1.0 is now making directories on it’s own from PHP it will cause problems for people on many hosts, because it will be created by the root/nobody owner and a local ftp will not be able to delete it because you don’t have the permissions as a regular user.
You’d need a short PHP program to delete those as the PHP owner.
<?php
rmdir("/var/www/vhosts/illuminatus.tv/httpdocs/illuminatus/bbpress/my-templates");
rmdir("/var/www/vhosts/illuminatus.tv/httpdocs/illuminatus/bbpress/my-plugins");
?>
I expect quite a bit of problems because of this from people on shared hosts.
The proper way for it to be done is with posix_setuid before file disk activity but I doubt they will ever do that (or just let people put the files in place like they did with 0.9)
ps. actually your directory names seem too long, what happens if you try to
rm /var/www/vhosts/illuminatus.tv/httpdocs/illuminatus/bbpress/my-templates
rm /var/www/vhosts/illuminatus.tv/httpdocs/illuminatus/bbpress/my-plugins
Do a recount and make sure you upgrade to 0.9.0.5
These are the only changed files between the two that you’d have to replace to save you some time instead of changing them all:
https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset?old_path=tags%2F0.9.0.4&old=1898&new_path=tags%2F0.9.0.5&new=2131
(there is a zip download link at the very bottom of trac)
1.0 apparently has a reverse post order ability built in
https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/825
It’s not clear how to activate it without editing the core, I will have to take a look at it.
Added: apparently the reversal feature is also available in 0.9, it’s just that changing it in topic.php requires a core edit and it might break the direct-link-to-a-post ability.
Here is a thread with a mini-plugin to reverse the post order in 0.8 that might work also in 0.9 and 1.0
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/change-post-order-question
Gravatars are built into bbPress because Gravatars are owned by Automattic (the parent company).
But you can still use an avatar plugin like Avatar Upload and disable gravatars.
You can customize it any way you’d like, it’s GPL
Remember to file bug reports on http://trac.bbpress.org
They are not much help here.
wrap any html or javascript (or even php) that you only want guests to see in this
<?php if (!bb_is_user_logged_in()) { ?>
blah stuff here
<?php } ?>
chmod 777 on my-plugins is very, very dangerous
0.9 is still available here: https://bbpress.org/dl-archive/bbpress-0.9.0.5.zip
There is an unfortunate problem where it’s not listed for easy access like on wp.org
First try switching your theme to the alternate and back again.
If that does nothing, temporarily deactivate any plugin you may be using and see if that does it.
Oh wait, you’ve been hacking at your theme.
<div id="discussions" align="left">
There’s no way that’s the default, you must have edited that.
Replace the theme files from the original.
So far it only looks like you edited front-page.php, so try replacing it with this in bb-templates/kakumei
http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress/trunk/bb-templates/kakumei/front-page.php
Iran uses Farsi/Persian so I bet the person who made this forum might be able to help them in their native language:
http://forum.wp-persian.com/
They used to be active around here too… trying to find the username…
ah it was mazdakam http://mazdakam.com/
For a moment I didn’t realize what you were saying because 0.9 shows the user id in the admin user list.
Apparently it’s been removed in 1.0, I’ll file a bug on trac.
My money would be on an incompatible plugin, what are you using.
I can already see topics-per-page and avatars and video embedding.
ps. bonus points for the ISIS avatar – my favorite show as a child
The problem is the way the plugin is written, the same filter is used for the title and such.
the post_text filter can also pass the post_id which you can use to lookup the forum the post is in but you’d have to modify more of the plugin to not use the post_id
you can try modifying this
add_filter('post_text', 'censor_post_text');
to
add_filter('post_text', 'censor_post_text',10,2);
so it then passes the post_id
Then change this
function censor_post_text($post) {
to this
function censor_post_text($post,$post_id=0) {
and then add this after the above
if (!empty($post_id)) {$temp=bb_get_post($post_id); if ($temp->forum_id==20) {return $post;}}
It’s a very heavyweight plugin that duplicates the functionality that’s already in WP.
What you should do is either write the output of the function from WP to a file and simply do a readfile from the bbPress side, or write it into the WP options table with autoload turned off and fetch it from the bbpress side via a single query.
See where it says “Compatible up to: 0.9”
By the way, I am trying to understand why so few people ask these kinds of plugin specific questions on the page for the plugin itself. Can you give me any insight?
