Re: Parent / Childrelationship in forum loop
So, the issue with the method implemented in : https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/hiding-subforums-subforums-from-subforum-pages
is that it only checks for the lineage of the forum before it.
This causes problems when you have multiple children to multiple children, as thus:
category
– Forum1
– – Child 1
– – – Child1’s child
– – Child 2
That method will make BBpress think that Child 2 is actually under Child1’s Child, because when testing if their parents are the same they clearly are not.
Instead, we have to create a nesting code that counts the depth to which we go as we trawl through each parent/child relationship – which is daft as there is a walker->depth function that we just don’t have access to via $GLOBALS.
EDIT:
Update – not knowing if it’s the last forum in a category is starting to kill me a little.
