In reply to: WP 2.9.2 and bbpress 1.0.2
bbPress isn’t a WordPress plugin. It’s a standalone software. Go to bbpress/ and you will access your brand new installation.
In reply to: Whoa! (bbPress.org 2.0 is live)“Add your plugin” form (https://bbpress.org/plugins/forum/requests) doesn’t function. It keeps sending me to the bb_die page “Your attempt to do this has failed.”
I have three new plugins to share with the community but right now I can’t.
In reply to: Whoa! (bbPress.org 2.0 is live)Download links and other infos are not displayed in several plugins. E.g.
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/zaerl-visibility/
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/nicer-permalinks/
and so on.
In reply to: Only AdminsMy plugin can help you as chrishaker said. Under “Roles Lock Rules” check “member”, “inactive” and “blocked”. Doing this only the keymaster, administrators and moderators can create new topics and add/modify posts/tags on that forum.
Ask me additional informations if you have doubts.
In reply to: Feeding topics from external sourceBut. I am astonished that there is no checking in bbPress to see if a topic already exists in a forum before allowing a topic with exactly the same title to be created.
In a forum is perfectly normal to have one or more topic with the same title. But the slug created is unique cause a number is appended with
bb_slug_increment.You can install that plugin. No need to use the mail system.
In reply to: Installation doesn't workPerry. BuddyPress have already its own forum functionality which is as well an hacked version of bbPress. So you don’t need to install bbPress if you want a forum.
Go to /wp-admin/admin.php?page=bb-forums-setup and click “install”.
Once you have done this you can access the forum at /forums/. That page (/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bbpress/bb-login.php) doesn’t display anything in BuddyPress.
If you have problems with BuddyPress you should ask for help in BuddyPress support forum and not here. This is the forum of bbPress.
In reply to: Posting date issueWhat you mean with “posting date”? You haven’t posts in your forum. Do you mean that when you create a new topic it is automatically dated to 9 months ago? Or the values you obtain in
/bb-admin/options-general.php?how can I add a post or topic in the admin panel?
If you want to create a new topic just create it from the forum.
In reply to: Installation doesn't workI’m using bbPress with BuddyPress but guys you’ve got to do better than a blank screen.
Ok. Next in schedule.
Your server is just a computer in which is installed bbPress. You need to connect to that server from your computer with an FTP client. Once you have established the connection you must upload the plugin file to the remote server and activate the plugin from the bbPress admin area.
It seems to me that you haven’t the necessary knowledge to perform such task. Maybe it’s better for you to hire someone for doing your work.
I don’t know what a “forum’s admin centre” is.
Connect to your server and upload the file. If you don’t know how to do this maybe you should hire someone for doing it for you. If you want to be a bbPress admin you must know how to manage a site using an FTP client.
We are talking about folders actually stored on your site server (http://www.cabbagemedia.com/students/forums) where bbPress has been installed. You need to access to your server through an FTP client.
The root folder is the folder where you have installed bbPress. You need to open the FTP program you use and create a
my-pluginsfolder inside the bbPress folder (if there isn’t already a folder with that name.) Once done this you must change that folder permission (write/read/exec) to 755 and upload theallow-images.phpfile inside it. Then open the plugin panel in the admin area of bbPress and activate the plugin.2) CHANGING THE LAYOUT
Install a new theme or change the default one that is located in bb-templates/kakumei
In reply to: Same avatarThere are plugins that allow you to upload avatars. The best, in my opinion, is bavatars. But there isn’t, as far as I know, a plugin that provide a connection with the MU avatar database.
In reply to: Can You Lock Your bbpress Forum?Through cookies I guess.
In reply to: Can You Lock Your bbpress Forum?My plugin (zaerl Visibility) let you lock or hide whatever forum/topic you want and it has been built for 1.0.2 and later versions. But it does not log out members.
In reply to: Can You Lock Your bbpress Forum?You want to deny new registrations? Or you simply want a forum that nobody can edit anymore?
In reply to: Preferred development tools?GNU/Emacs + ECB + cedet.
In reply to: Strong need for a vBulletin to bbPress import scriptThis can be very challenging. The vBulletin SQL schema is very complicated and it isn’t, as far as I know, well documented.
In reply to: the rise of pay-only bbPress themesIt was just a correction. It’s fair to sell GPL software. If you, the developer, choose a copyleft-like license as the GPL you know what other people can do with your code (and what they can’t.) Basically speaking you put your work in the public domain with the only difference that others can use and distribute your software under the terms and condition of the GPL. If you don’t want other people to make money with your work than you can choose a more restrictive license like the Creative Commons Non-Commercial.
In reply to: subscribe to topic or reply notificationEvery topic has its own RSS in the form site.com/rss/topic/topic-name
In reply to: the rise of pay-only bbPress themesThis is one of the most important thing of GPL (the famous “free as in freedom” and not “free as in free beer”.) http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.html
In reply to: [Hot Tags] list + read more linkYou can’t break it with that ‘link’. But you can change the call:
bb_tag_heat_map( 9, 38, 'pt', 80 );in
tags.phpand write a simple javascript that filter away X in the generated<p class="frontpageheatmap">.In reply to: How to fix links after increasing "Items per page"So will your plugin be compatible with bbPress 1.03 or is there another solution already integrated in bbPress 1.03?
My plugin works in 1.0.2 which is the official release. When the new bbPress will come (it’s in alpha stage right now) I will update it if necessary. Given what I have seen it will work at 99% without changes. At least if devs don’t add a ‘/post/*’ rewrite rule.
Will my old anchor-links stop working after activating your plugin?
Yes. That are just links. I don’t modify any template function but I just add another way of addressing the posts. Obviously if you deactivate the plugin all the posts permalinks will spawn a 404.
