Oh nice. I made the disable submit and spinner plugin in my test environment but haven’t put it into prod yet. I’l try your plugin in my test env and see what it does! 7K installs is great.
One user just told me that when he posts sometimes he clicks the submit button twice, causing double posts. I tried it and confirmed with both an admin and non admin account. I understand that there’s supposed to be some kind of duplicate check, but that’s not happening. The submit button should be disabled and replaced with a spinning wheel or something to indicate to the user that there’s an operation pending. Maybe I’ll try to make a plugin for that.
It’s super customized, but if there’s a demand I could think about making it available.
Want to test out a new website feature?
Yeah I just deployed the first version. Once it’s been tested and gotten some user feedback I’ll update if necessary, then I think I’ll make a free version for the bbPress community.
Thanks. When I’m back to debugging emails I’ll try it out!
Since I never found a solution for this, I created my own. Just deployed it to production on one of my sites for the users to try out. Wooohoo.
@zoddshop63 I’ve had many problems with buddypress emails never reaching their recipients. Did you figure anything out?
The above link would normally show the tweet before the rename to X.
Perhaps I should have worded my question better:
Is there an existing plugin/feature that allows users to filter forum categories to customize their experience?

I’ve built a few ios/android bbpress apps now. It is not a “quick” or cheap solution however! You can contact me if you are interested: http://www.tkserver.com/contact/
I’ve built 3 custom bbpress ios/android apps now. One for myself and two for clients. Each site has such different needs that a generic, one size fits all solution for an app would be hard to pull off. Not impossible. One issue would be that the app has to be available on say iTunes, requiring a paid developer license and support and so-on. That app would have to have a setting somewhere to add the domain of the bbpress it is going to connect to. So that app would not be affiliated necessarily with your site, but a generic app. Otherwise, you’d have to have a developer account and do all the PITA stuff it takes to get your app launched, which means a lot of custom work.
I’ve been quiet on my bbPress IOS/Android app as of late. The current version is working very well and during our site’s off-season I’m migrating my codebase to a native platform. That’s going well and hopefully can take advantage of device specific features at some point if needed.
I am using Firebase Cloud Messaging in my application to send notifications.
I looked at that but it seemed to not be easy or well supported in Angular 1. Would love to hear how you are making that work.
New features in the “actions” menu for each topic/reply. Some features are admin only, like trash/delete. Others include edit topic/reply, block user, report content.
Built an API and the app code for a search feature for the next version of the app:
New stuff I’m working on for my bbPress android/ios app… First a threaded/tree view of replies to make the conversation easier to follow.
My app works on iOS and Android.
$role = bbp_get_user_role( $reply_author_id );

Hey @makarkinpro I just ran into a comment you made at codecanyon regarding push notifications for bbpress. I’m not working on a bbPress app for a client and they want a user to be able to subscribe for push notifications in bbpress. I ended up finding that plugin you commented on. Any news on that?
Hey @sambhal I’m working on your idea. But I already had this in my config.xml:
<access origin=”*” />
<allow-intent href=”http://*/*” />
<allow-intent href=”https://*/*” />
<allow-navigation href=”*” />
That should cover everything shouldn’t it?
How about allowing the option for users to register and directly use the system, but maybe their posts would require moderation as they would not be perceived as a trusted users (non-spammer) until they have confirmed email address or have approved posts.
Check out the WooCommerce approach, they’re coming from a different angle and not requiring you to confirm your email before checkout and have a number of options about the account creation.
That’s certainly a possibility. That workflow is different that what the current www version is however. I’m trying to keep them consistent in that respect and use the buddypress flow for both the app and the www version.
One “issue” is that in the sports discussion forum world there are some trolls who are always trying to get in, then spam the hell out of the place or post offensive or combative content once they are in. The confirmation of emails at least slows that down because each time they do that I can ban that account/email/IP and they’d have to set up another fake email account and post from a different IP to try and get in again.
Version 0.1.0 is now available for both iOS and Android as of today.
New features:
- Create new user account in the app. No longer have to use the www version for that
- User profile management: edit public display name, edit email, edit password
- Avatar management: upload/delete avatar
- New WYSIWYG text editor. Now the same one as on the www site
- Version checking alerts user to upgrade to the latest version.
- Fixed youtube bug where videos appear blank in app
