In reply to: New Theme: Genealogías
It’s not available for download anymore. Sorry.
In reply to: Next page on “latest discussions?”What i do in the current stable version is to register a new view called all discussions. It works pretty neat.
In reply to: Plugin suggestions@sam:
That’s what i say to my users, but some of them just don’t get it … for them it’s much easier to just add text into the Reply form than click “edit”.

Another plugin i need (probably will implement this in two or three weeks) is “Private Discussions”, a plugin to replace Private Messaging. Instead of private messages, two users can have a private discussion. Hopefully, the plugin will need only a few template tweaks and no additional files in the bbPress root folder.
It should work in a similar way to Vanilla’s Whispers, but without whispers in a public discussion.
In reply to: Plugin suggestionsI would like to code a plugin to prevent double posting in a certain period of time. For example, i’m adding this reply to this topic, and in 5 minutes i could add another. This plugin would take the second reply and append it to the first one, instead of making a new post (if no one else replied in those 5 minutes).
It should be straightforward to do, but i don’t have the time :'(
In reply to: User Photo for bbPressI have uploaded this plugin to the Plugin Repository.
I found some problems in the earlier version, but it now works
In reply to: bbPress Top 100 September '08 updateViva Chile Mierda !!!
Great work, _ck_. Thanks.
In reply to: Ajax Quote (or “Quote Extended”):Well, i don’t know :p You need to provide me with better information, like: do you uploaded the plugin into the folder
my-plugins?Perhaps you didn’t uncompress the folder
sack??In reply to: Ajax Quote (or “Quote Extended”):Probably your installation is not loading the javascript libraries. Are you using WordPress’ header instead of the bbPress one?
In reply to: Ajax Quote (or “Quote Extended”):I just uploaded a new version into the Plugin Repository. Now you can quote on multipage topics (using the mechanism from the original plugin).
In reply to: Integrate PM by defaultI’m working on a few enhancements over PM Extended, but i’m not considering compatibility with the old plugin. I don’t know why it doesn’t work with previous messages, as i never touched the database structure of the plugin (just made a few tweaks).
In reply to: New Theme: GenealogíasPerhaps you want to change the classes primary (content width) and secondary (sidebar width).
In reply to: Plugin: Allow additional or custom profile fieldsI use it in WP and bbPress
It’s easy to adapt, and as you have both integrated …Of course you could also print the “about” text entered by the user in their Profile page in the Dashboard. So you only really need a plugin for the gamertags.
In reply to: Plugin: Allow additional or custom profile fieldsPilola, you could use this plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gaming-codes/
I use it here: http://www.ryuuko.cl/bbpress/ (see the “nuestros usuarios” links).
In reply to: Mass email functionI have an admin interface, but it’s ugly and incomplete. I think a plugin for mass mailing your users should have an opt-out option (and opt-in at registration), which i haven’t implemented.
I don’t agree with _ck_, because a forum or a community should have a way to give important messages to its users (sometimes you can’t rely on RSS). If such functionality is not being used correctly, well, that’s another case. And i don’t think Google or another service could ban you if you present a normal usage (ie., not thousands of e-mails every minute).
In reply to: WP and BB Integration of User Data/Member ListBoth bb and WP store data in wp_users and wp_usermeta, so when you do bb_get_user or get_user you get basically the same object.
I have a memberlist using my plugin, Aleph. The list is here: http://www.ryuuko.cl/busqueda/gente/
As you can see, i display a location field, which is filled in bbPress profile form.
In reply to: Mass email functionI have a custom plugin for that. Here are the two important functions:
function bb_mail_users($subject, $content) {
global $bbdb;
$users = $bbdb->get_results("SELECT ID, user_login, user_email FROM $bbdb->users");
foreach ($users as $user)
bb_mail_user($user->ID, $user->user_login, $user->user_email, $subject, $content);
}
function bb_mail_user($user_id, $user_login, $user_email, $subject, $message) {
$message = str_replace('%user_login%', $user_login, $message);
$message = str_replace('%user_id%', $user_id, $message);
$message = str_replace('%user_email%', $user_email, $message);
$subject = str_replace('%user_login%', $user_login, $subject);
$subject = str_replace('%user_id%', $user_id, $subject);
$subject = str_replace('%user_email%', $user_email, $subject);
bb_mail($user_email, $subject, $message);
}I think it’s pretty straightforward. You can write a message like: “Hello, %user_login%, how are you? Thanks for participating in this forum
” and a subject like “Thanks, %user_login%”. Then, to mail that to all your users:$content = "Hello, %user_login%, how are you? Thanks for participating in this forum
";
$subject = "Thanks, %user_login%";
bb_mail_users($subject, $content);In reply to: Do you plain to write bbpress?Use SMF then

That’s the magic of open source. YOU can choose.
In reply to: Ajax Quote (or “Quote Extended”):Give me your url so i can see why it doesn’t work.
In reply to: bbPress 1.0 alpha looks interestingI’ll take a look

If i want to contribute patches, i just upload them to trac ?? I use Eclipse, should i just use the “Create Patch” option?
(sorry, i’ve never used trac nor created patches :p)

Edit: i’m installing it, trying to integrate with WP. I entered all values, but at the end bbPress created a new user table, ignoring the wp_users table.
In reply to: Integrate PM by defaultAlso, the plugin (the original and my modded version) is completely unorganized. It should be rewritten …
In reply to: Why is integration so troublesome?“Glad you got it working but I really dislike “display names” and I think it’s the worst concept in WordPress. Very bad idea to allow users to spoof other names. Even the “impostercide” plugin doesn’t solve all the issues. No other blog/forum system has such a quirky concept.”
I think the same. In a forum it doesn’t make much sense. What if i want to send a private message to a user ? If he changes his display name and avatar it could be very hard to find who he really is. It shouldn’t be allowed in a forum with a lot of users, it could get extremely chaotic.
In reply to: User Based CapabilitiesThis would be great!
In reply to: Ajax Quote (or “Quote Extended”):I found a bug (or perhaps a missing feature). In multipage topics, the plugin works only in the last page. I’ll try to fix this…
In reply to: Private Messaging ExtendedI don’t know how to do it on the same, but you could easily make a
$bbdb->querycall with your own query.In reply to: Private Messaging ExtendedBecause that tries to get the instance variable ‘privatemessages’ from $bbdb. As that variable doesn’t exists, it returns null.
