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->query
call 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.
