Mmmm, so it is. I think I’ll stick the avatar plugin. “Your Identity—Online” doesn’t sound very appealing to me, and I’m guessing it will be likewise for my users. We’re an identity-data-conscious bunch.
Same behavior when I don’t check “remember me”. Logging in one logs me out of the other.
Note: I just today moved the site from a dev area at
coloradoboards.com/appleswitcher/wp/
to
appleswitcher.com/wp/
so further cookie path examples will reflect that.
I don’t see where to set my avatar in Kakumei or Kakumei Blue… is this something my users and I have to do on a 3rd-party site like gravatar.com or something?
[sorry for the semi-thread-jack]
I love it. Please release it!
Works FF2 Mac and Safari3 Mac.
Having user names being the same on two domains (very possible) is different than having two domains share a cookie (impossible due to the security implications I mentioned above).
Second level domains must be the same, as sam said. (First level being .com, .net, .org etc). It’s for security… imagine the havoc if you had to buy every extension for your domain so that others couldn’t, and read your users’ cookie info.
Duh. Thanks fel. But I could have sworn relative pathing worked before for that require…
Anyway, I knew it was going to be something stupid while I was writing the above post. The weirder the problem, the stupider the mistake.
Hmmm still not working. Something’s strange because even this doesn’t show:
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: test stuff
*/
add_action('bb_head', 'my_add_test_tag');
function my_add_test_tag() {
echo '<!-- testing here -->';
}
?>
I’ve tried activating/deactivating these plugins, and I’ve tried 2 browsers to ensure it’s not cache I’m seeing. Grr.
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: noindex stuff
*/
add_action('bb_head', 'my_add_noindex_tag');
function my_add_noindex_tag() {
if( is_forum(3) ) {
echo '<meta name="robots" content="noindex" />';
}
else {
echo '<!-- please do index -->';
}
}
?>
I modified it a bit to see both conditions… but neither are showing up in my source. Any thoughts?
I did see it in the plugins control panel, and activate it.
Thanks Fel. I should have added more text:
I’d like to keep spiders out of forum category 3, but not forum category 4 or 5.
Specifically I’d like that meta tag to be written to forum category 3 page that lists the threads, and all threads that are in forum category 3.
I see the same behavior on my forum, appleswitcher.com.
Thanks for the advice fel. I’ll do that.
The more I look at that function, the more I don’t want to f**k with it. I think you’re right — it would open some unsavory doors.
I’ll mess more with display_name in the user table, for the affected users… see if I can’t get that to work.
I know, I know. I’ve been running my forum since 2002, and these people are very connected to their names. Blame phpBB for allowing this stuff. Thanks for your idea… I’ll rock it today.
Just to be clear, does your solution allow new funny char usernames, or show existing? Because I need the latter. I don’t need/want new FCUs.
Fixed. It was the path to the .js file that got changed with the template change. Check this in your source code, and if the path isn’t correct the buttons won’t show.
WP answers to requests to domain.com
I followed the WP instructions on serving WP from a different directory than it’s installed in (WP Admin -> Options).
I put bbPress inside wp/ like the general consensus here recommends, and the syncing works very well. Cookies work fine etc. I’m very pleased with this. I didn’t want to have problems with syncing, so I didn’t do the parallel method.
WordPress:

bbPress:

bbPress, ideally:

Looks nice. Very clean, I’m a fan.
I’d do some work with the Last Poster column. The header is left-aligned, but the content (user nicks) are centered.
How do you calculate visitors in “Now online: xx visitors, xx members”?
Note private messages are cut off at 2048 characters (1965 in practice, from my testing) because the db field is varchar(2048).
That’s not that much to wordy writers.
I might try to change this to longtext. If I do I’ll post back on the results, and if good, the method.

Many plugins. Let me know if you have any specific questions and I’ll answer them here.
Ok, thanks for the post.
I wish I could “sick” it on account creations and not posts. All my spam is in new spam accounts.
I know I know… write a plugin 
Bump. Anyone working on this?
Anyone have allow-youtube.zip? The link at the top is 404’ing.
Thx
