In reply to: snowski theme released
Doesn’t seem to be any syntax errors in the file I downloaded. Are you certain you have a good copy of the file?
In reply to: Plugins for 1.0.2Did you try the plugin? It seems to me the user just puts the URL of the video inside the video shortcode/bbcode, and it embeds the video into their post or reply. Has that not been your experience?
Do you have bbcode or bbcode light installed with your editor now? If so, you can add a video button there to make it even easier.
There was another video plugin for bbPress where you just pasted the URL of the video in to your reply, and it did all the embedding for you. I think that was called bbVideo and for 0.9.
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbvideo/
That’s a very old plugin and probably will not work with 1.0.2
In reply to: snowski theme releasedLooks like there is a syntax error in that template file. Where did you download the theme from?
In reply to: New bbPress Theme: TerraFirma TwoVery nice. Nice to see you releasing themes again.
In reply to: Plugins for 1.0.2I am going to guess it’s this plugin:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/easy-video-embed/
From that page, it does not appear there is an admin page. Just use the bbcode [video][/video] with the URL of the video in between.
There is no admin and there doesn’t appear to be any buttons added to the editor. Just follow the instructions. If you do that, and have a problem, post back.
In reply to: the rise of pay-only bbPress themesThank you Sam.
Sounds like you have two different issues. Which one would you like to work on in this topic? Choose one, then start another topic for the other, please.
In reply to: Double TopicYeah, I think that is the job of a moderator, to weed out the duplicates.
Wasn’t there another post recently where this same error came up?
Could Not Find Blog!
Searched for [mydomain]/forums/ in mydb::wp_blogs table. Is that right?Can’t seem to find it right now.
In reply to: Install problemThose are warnings, not errors. If you suppress displaying warnings to the browser (which you should on a production site) then you will not have an issue.
The problem is caused by using PHP 5.3.x. If you can use 5.2, you won’t even have to deal with the warnings.
You can suppress the display of all errors and warnings by adding this to the forum’s .htaccess file:
php_flag display_errors off
If you get a blank white screen after adding that, remove that line. It means your host does not allow that directive in .htaccess and you will have to find another way.
In reply to: Double TopicYou want to throttle those users then. There is a setting in the admin under Settings > Writing called “Throttle time”. I think it’s 30 seconds by default. Set that to longer and people will not be able to post again for that long. If you set it to 180, it would be three minutes.
This does not find and remove duplicate posts, but it prevents most of them from happening. The side effect is that if someone is responding to multiple posts quickly, they are prevented from posting to different topics within that throttle time too.
I don’t know of a plugin that will find and eliminate duplicate topics.
You can also disable the submit button after it is clicked the first time, using JavaScript, in case the reason people are posting duplicates is because you are on a slow server.
In reply to: Add Text and Adsense to SidebarIn case anyone is wondering, here is the theme:
http://www.awesomestyles.com/bbpress-themes/view/static-blue-bb
Yes, it would go in front-page.php inside the div where the hot tags are.
Find this:
<div id="hottags" role="main">
Put it right BEFORE the closing
</div>
That should take care of it
In reply to: Double TopicDefine double topic. Do you mean people posting the same thing in rapid succession, in error, or something else?
In reply to: Add Text and Adsense to SidebarHow is the sidebar being added to your forum? In that file is where you will need to add content to your sidebar.
In reply to: Whoa! (bbPress.org 2.0 is live)In reply to: Whoa! (bbPress.org 2.0 is live)Also, Noel, this image is missing:
https://bbpress.org/forum-theme/bborg/images/support-forum-icons/support-forum-closed.png
It should appear on the bottom of a topic after the topic is closed. You can see it missing on this page:
Down at the bottom
In reply to: Whoa! (bbPress.org 2.0 is live)Interesting on the fonts. I have only viewed the forums on Windows and Linux, never Mac. Maybe I have more fonts installed or something (which is entirely possible.)
For the topics started, I have no way to verify, but I have topics started going all the way back to the beginning, so unless the list is missing something in the middle (I have far more replies than topics started) I think it looks OK.
In reply to: Whoa! (bbPress.org 2.0 is live)1) I can confirm the pagination problem when viewing your own profile: at the bottom of the page only, for me.
viewing this page: https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/chrishajer/page/4

2) I could not verify this.
3) Yes, needs work.
4) Did not try to confirm (still have not been able to see the small font you are experiencing.)
5) That is likely from a patch that I committed yesterday. I will have Gautam verify this one.
Thanks Kevin.
In reply to: Login IssueSo, what happens when you try to log in?
Can you register a new user there and log in like that (just as a test)?
In reply to: Whoa! (bbPress.org 2.0 is live)This topic has been derailed and I am going to delete the off-topic posts.
The design of bbpress.org will not be made available for download, that I know of. It didn’t happen with the last design, but there were many duplicates created.
If you would like to download the latest version of bbPress for testing, you will find it here:
https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/trunk
There is a link at the bottom center to “Download Zip Archive”, but I believe if you do that backpress does not get installed.
If you can install with subversion, you won’t have any trouble like that, as all externals are installed at the same time.
svn co http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress/trunk/ ./bbpress/
Will install the latest trunk version by subversion into a directory called bbpress.
In reply to: Can You Lock Your bbpress Forum?Thanks for documenting how you did it. I’m sure it will be helpful to someone.
In reply to: Can You Lock Your bbpress Forum?You can expire all their login cookies by changing the secret keys in your bb-config.php file. See the note (which is present in wp-config.php but not in bb-config.php I don’t think):
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-config-sample.php#L41
In reply to: Preferred development tools?Never found and IDE I liked using: maybe because I always work on tiny little pieces, never a big project. Notepad++ on Windows, or vim on Linux. ssh, scp, svn and bash for transferring files.
In reply to: getting HTML validation errors…Looks like you have it resolved, after checking your page just now. Changing from strict to transitional would work too, instead of using this javascript method.
Actually, the forum looks sort of messed up now, so it looks like you’re working on it.
In reply to: bbPress 1.0.2 not finding my-templatesThe last time I recall hearing about a permissions thing it was on a mac client as well. I remember the screenshot.
Why is there no style.css shown in the my-templates/businesslike/ directory?
Also, why is there a businesslike directory INSIDE the businesslike directory? Shouldn’t there just be one level under my-templates?
What is inside the directory my-templates/businesslike/businesslike/ ? Is that where your theme is? Is style.css present there?
Where did this header information come from:
