Adventure Canoe Forum

I started a canoeing specific forum. It’s finally starting to get some traffic. I’ve used some standard plugins as well as writing some of my own.

_CK_’s plugins are indispensable.

here’s a could packed into one that do a lot of SEO stuff like titles, canonical links and opening links in new windows.

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Target Blank

Description:  append target="_blank" to all links and other fun stuff

Author:  James

Version: 1

*/

//add rel=external to post links... there's also some stuff in here to allow more tags



function bb_target_blank( $text ) {

$text = preg_replace('|<a (.+?)>|i', '<a $1 target="_blank">', $text);

return $text;

}

add_filter('pre_post', 'bb_target_blank');



// Add Tags with allow_tags



function allow_more_tags( $tags ) {

$tags['p'] = array('style' => array());

$tags['h3'] = array('style' => array());

$tags['span'] = array('style' => array());

$tags['b'] = array('style' => array());

$tags['em'] = array('style' => array());

$tags['ol'] = array('style' => array());

$tags['target'] = array('style' => array());

$tags['iframe'] = array('style' => array());



return $tags;

}



add_filter( 'bb_allowed_tags', 'allow_more_tags' );



function meta_keywords() {

global $tags;

if (!empty($tags)) {

$keywords="";

foreach ($tags as $t) {$keywords.=$t->raw_tag.', ';}

echo "n".'<meta NAME="keywords" CONTENT="'.trim($keywords,", ").'">'."n";

}

} add_action('bb_head', 'meta_keywords',;



function set_canonical_links() {

global $page;

if (is_front()) {



$url = (!empty($_SERVER['HTTPS'])) ? "https://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] : "http://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];



echo '

<link rel="canonical" href="'.$url.'" />'.PHP_EOL;

} elseif (bb_is_topic()) {

$tlink = get_topic_link();

if ($page > 1) {

$turl = $tlink.'/page/'.$page;

} else {

$turl = get_topic_link();

}

echo '

<link rel="canonical" href="'.$turl.'" />'.PHP_EOL;

} elseif (is_forum()) {

echo '

<link rel="canonical" href="'.get_forum_link().'" />'.PHP_EOL;

} else {

return;

}

}

add_action('bb_head','set_canonical_links');



?>

This one makes better page titles…it has some canoe specific stuff in it but I think you can see how it works and change it for your needs.

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Better Titles

Author: James Dixson

*/

add_filter('bb_title', 'titlemodify');



function titlemodify( $title ) {

//your code that does something to $title;



switch ( bb_get_location() ) {

case 'topic-page':

$title = get_topic_title() . ' - ' . get_forum_name() . ' &mdash; Adventure Canoe Forum' ;

break;



case 'front-page':

$title = bb_option('name') . ' &mdash; Canoeing and Paddling Discussion' ;

break;



case 'forum-page':



$find = 'Canoe';

$string = get_forum_name() ;

if(strstr($string,$find)){

$title = get_forum_name() . ' &mdash; Adventure Canoe Forum' ;

}else{

$title = 'Canoe ' . get_forum_name() . ' &mdash; Adventure Canoe Forum' ;

}



break;



case 'profile-page':

$title = 'Profile for ' . get_user_name() . ' - Adventure Canoe Forum &mdash; Canoeing and Paddling Discussion' ;

break;

}

return $title;

}

?>
