I’ve never quite understood the complaints about cookies and bbPress/WordPress integration… I set up a fresh copy of 1.0.2 locally with no prior knowledge and it worked fine (Windows test server). I FTPed it onto my live server and changed over the addresses and it works fine, apart from an odd quirk to do with bb-admin and where you log in. My cookies hold across either site, and for that matter to a MediaWiki install I have tied in to the same user set.

I quite understand the issue with cross-posting though. I’d fix it myself if I could work out how to initialise bbPress core cleanly inside WordPress, but that’s not possible in 1.0, so for now all you can use is plugins that do it by HTTP. Hopefully that will be integrated into core later on, but including bbPress as a WordPress plugin would be shoehorning something that was designed to be relatively standalone into a different structure and no doubt would over complicate things.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

It’s using class new-topic, so you’d need .newtopic {}… it can’t be found because there’s no actual CSS affecting it specifically. I’d recommend using Mozilla Firefox’s DOM inspector or looking at the HTML source to find class/ID tags for things.

Oh, and it’s affected by (in Kakumei at least):

#latest th a, #forumlist th a, #favorites th a and a:visited

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

That’s weird. Seems to be throwing <![CDATA in still… could you check if there’s a rss2.php in your template’s directory and if so either change that or delete it? That’s the only thing I can think of that might be causing that. Forgot themes usually copy everything.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

I think the general consensus is that using permalinks is better and also a lot better for readablity. Could be wrong though.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

Hmm? I accidentally left the comment saying // List forums in there, but in actual fact that will only return categories, not forums in them because it does the bb_get_forum_is_category() check. If you’re referring to the normal forum code in frontpage.php, taking that out will take out the normal list of forums you see there, so I’m not sure if that’s what you want to do.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

Sorry about that!

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

@ashfame have a look at the bottom of front-page.php, it should read <div class="bbcrumb"><a href="<?php bb_uri(); ?>"><?php bb_option('name'); ?></a> &raquo; <?php _e('Add New Topic'); ?></div>. Your code seems to have somehow dropped everything between the last two PHP snippets and the trailing </div> too. That’s not being returned by the breadcrumb function though at least, so it should be easier to fix if it doesn’t work with your template’s front-page.php deleted/renamed though, there might be something wrong with your core files.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

@gerikg he’s trying to fix an additional <a> with no closing tag in the new post form, not generate a link to it

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

Assuming you’re talking about deep integration of bbPress, you should be able to use one of the constants defined in the settings of WordPress MU / BuddPress to determine if bbPress is embedded or not.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

Using IE on it doesn’t work at all for me. How weird… http://www.oraclepronet.com/techzone/index.php loads fine though on first try, so it might be something to do with how the server is handling the directory index rather than bbPress. Your version of WordPress has security holes by the way, you might want to upgrade.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

I’m afraid I didn’t make it, so I can’t help you too much there, sorry. You used the full ID after http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid= right?

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

Actually, nevermind, you could use this: http://pipes.yahoo.com/jasonsilver/facebookgroup to get posts from a group. It’s throwing things out in german for me, but that’s probably fixable. Facebook is stupidly locked down in the whole though, good luck posting to it.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

From what I can tell, the only things relating to groups in Facebook’s API are

groups.get

Returns all visible groups according to the filters specified.

groups.getMembers

Returns membership list data associated with a group.

I think you’d therefore have to scrape the Facebook page manually and parse it’s HTML to pass back Facebook posts. Do-able, but it wouldn’t be very good for keeping in sync well.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

Change @require_once( BB_PATH . BB_INC . 'registration-functions.php'); to @require_once( BB_PATH . BB_INC . 'functions.bb-meta.php'); on line 77 of wiki-post.php to get it to load. I’m not sure how to fix anything else though.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

For some reason it doesn’t get escaped by anything. How weird. Okay, the hackiest way of doing it ever:

function bb_escape_nbsp( $text ) {

$text = str_replace ( ' ', '&amp ;nbsp;', $text );

return $text;

}

add_filter('post_text', 'bb_escape_nbsp');

add_filter('edit_text', 'bb_escape_nbsp');

Take out the space between amp and ;

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

I’m pretty sure you can’t with Facebook groups, since (as far as I know), you can’t add applications to the groups page so you’re stuck with what’s available. Best I could suggest would be adding a link or using a Facebook Page.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

<?php if ( bb_forums() ) : // List forums ?>

<ul class="cat_list">

<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?>

<?php if (bb_get_forum_is_category()) : ?>

<li><a href="<?php forum_link(); ?>"><?php forum_name(); ?></a><li>

<?php endif; ?>

<? endwhile; ?>

</ul>

<?php endif; // bb_forums() ?>

Put that in header.php or frontpage.php respectively and use CSS to format .cat_list li

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

Quick check, your code does actually include the <a (.+?)> part right? That got dropped from your post, but I’m presuming that’s because you didn’t use the code tag. The plugin should add the target=”_blank” HTML attribute, which tells the browser to open the link in a new window. You can change that in the browser to open in a new tab instead, but if it’s not doing either of those, there’s something wrong.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

Check for a trailing space or anything after the ?> or before the <?php. That error implies that some text is being passed and in my test install, that was a space after the ?>.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

With the final patch from track applied against 1.0.2 trunk you get:

@Shagalaga: Maybe you could use a hidden forum for guestbooks? One topic per user that’s had a comment posted, just use the existing topic functions and a modified post form on the bottom of their profile?

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

I think should do it, it’s based off code here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/open-links-in-new-window

Change the values of $forums to the forum IDs of those you wish to restrict (it’ll only work on direct parent forums, not grandparents or categories, I don’t want to include walker code unless people need it).

Tested on 1.0.2 trunk, so I’m not 100% sure it’ll run on 0.9, sorry.

@Hanratty: hiding links using CSS visibility will still leave the link URLs in the code, which isn’t too desirable for some

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

Interesting thing sometimes worth knowing: you don’t have to copy everything from Kakumei, since anything not found in your theme will be used from there. I find it helps to reduce clutter if you only copy files as you need to edit them, since you can work out what might have gone wrong later.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

I guess it depends on the structure of the theme, but essentially you need to try and match the CSS elements in the theme’s stylesheet to their bbPress counterparts. Some of it will be redundant, and personally I found it easier to just take the bulk of the general styling and then add in the rest later. Didn’t turn out perfect though. I’d recommend using Kakumei as a base as well.

[@kawauso Member 15 years, 3 months ago]

Very impressive indeed if that equates to anything like that number of forums, that’s pretty amazing
