So when is the official non developer version coming out?

[DarwinsDream]

Thanks Jared you have no clue how good it is to have you on my side on this one hahaha

I saw You and John write that exact answer on another post and my lack of knowledge in actual hand PHP scripting cause me to kill my site wich is about 70% bbpress i killed my functions.php so i had to download a new version of bbpress and replaced the files i touched with new ones.

I am positive (*crosses fingers*) that this do_shortcode script will work for me.

Main Issue: I have NO clue where in the functions.php to put it, can you give my sad non PHP reading butt an example of where it should go or would you like me to post my functions page here.

One more question:Do you mean my wordpress theme folder or my bbpress theme folder.

As always Jared you my friend are the freaking man and thank you

[DarwinsDream]

Wow i had no clue anyone was here in this bbpress forum, seems like everyone is posting on this topic. There are other topics going too guys. Like one’s that haven’t been addressed in 5 days… just saying

John?

Jared?

Anointed?

Can someone please take a look at my most recent topic that I posted. While waiting for an answer Ive crashed my site twice(worse than i ever had before) bringing it back twice and then rebuilt it totally again once in about 48 hours. I really need some help. I soooo don’t want to do a complete redesign in a new platform, but that is an option that has crossed my mind. I’m so happy with my wordpress/bbpress site. But I need to get this video player working.

Hi There,

I am running the latest wordpress

site url is: http://www.climberism.com/forum-page-tst/

We have an iframe setup in the url above pointing to the bbpress forum we have installed. It is the only way I can get it to work with my wordpress theme. Anyway, is there a way to stop the iframe refresh from always going back to the same page? ie. if you’re in the “gear talk” section and refresh you just get dumped back to the main forum page.

If anyone has any ideas, that would be awesome. Thanks.

Dear all, I have a wordpress website and in website have a bbpress forum. I want comment in a topic of website sort by post date desc but reply in a topic of forum sort by post date asc.

I was config “Setting -> Discussion: Comments should be displayed with the newer comments at the top of each page” and add filter:

add_filter( 'bbp_has_replies_query', 'bbp_reverse_reply_order' );
function bbp_reverse_reply_order( $query = array() ) {             

            // Bail if no query
if ( empty( $query ) ) return;

            // Change the order
$query = 'ASC';

            // Return the adjusted query
return $query;
}

BBPress order reply when query the replies by post date asc but when paging the replies is sorted by post date desc on a page.

Please help me resolved this issue. Thanks!

I know.

I cant get my jwplayer shortcode to work in bbpress. I am aware of the shortcode issue in bbpress. But I need all shortcodes to work in bbpress. Security is not an issue at this point.

I tried the (get_shortcode)code in the theme fuctions.php file with no result. Not really sure if I was supossed to put it in the wordpress theme or the bbpress theme. Maybe im writing the code in the wrong spot, I’m not the strongest on php my strengths are html, css, and design. This issue has been a thorn in my side for about a week. So if anyone can tell me exactly where to place the–

add_action( ‘bbp_get_reply_content’, ‘do_shortcode’);

php script so I can get this thing flowing, I would def owe you a buck.

also i get an error when i try and install shortcode whitelist and bbcode

When activating the bbPress plug-in, bbPress automatically injects itself into the WordPress standard menu.

Is it possible to remove this link from the standard menu?

I’m using qTranslate on my WordPress installation and the link to bbPress that bbPress injects into the WordPress standard menu is not compatible with qTranslate.

I would like to add a standard custom menu link to the forum and remove the automatically injected link to the forum.

Is this possible?

Edit: Found a solution to this problem myself.

Hashbang urls are now handled in BackPress trunk as of https://backpress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/350

And so work on the WP.com forums and anywhere else where a bbPress install pulls it’s BackPress external from HEAD of trunk/includes

[Lynq]

If you are not sure where the issue is coming from then I suggest activating a default theme for bbPress, like twentyten and then seeing if the issue still exists.

If it does then move onto disabling any bbPress plugins, one by one.

Good luck!

[Lynq]

You can copy and paste a current loop file and rename to something like loop-custom-forums.php then when you want to call that loop you can use:

<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/loop', 'custom-forums' ); ?>

Good luck!

If you learn to copy function names and do a search for them through your whole bbpress plugin folder, you can pretty much find out how anything works, this is how I worked this out. Think I had to go through a trail of 5 or 6 files until I worked it out

This is great advice for anyone wanting to customize their bbPress. I have found out many different bits and pieces by doing exactly this.

[Lynq]

No problem, sorry the slightly erratic replies, got there in the end though!

[POS2012]

I have chosen bbPress, and am very happy with that choice.

It loads in half the time, is more easy to customize, and very easy to use.

Further:

If you want a solution for PM, groups, activity feed (one or all), you can install BuddyPress (another WP plugin), and you have it all.

I used gconverter.com to do the migrating, and that was a winner!

[demonboy]

Me too, I’d like the same.

[demonboy]

May I ask:

I am looking at simple:press versus bbPress. So I am interested in: WHY would you like to go for bbPress over simple:press?

I can answer that. SimplePress have just started charging for their support! My wife was encouraged by the developers to use their new version 5 when she was looking for a forum plug-in to her WordPress blog. Just when she was up and running they started charging and coincidentally she developed a bug in her forum at the same time after an update. She did not even receive notification that this was going to happen. I’m pretty disappointed with them for not telling her this was in the pipeline because she would have taken this into account and we’d have gone for BBPress in the first place.

She is so desperate now she’s almost at the point of paying for the support to sort the problem out but I would rather manually migrate to another forum just on principle.

We have tried contacting the developers at SimplePress but they are not interested.

I’m trying to upgrade an existing forum that uses 2.0 to 2.1. If I upgrade, will all my forums and posts still work?

[Antonio]

Hi, noticed bbPress plugin adds seven query vars to the public query vars array (WP::$public_query_vars). Three of them (forum, topic and reply) are added registering their respective post types. But the other four (topic-tag, bbp_user, bbp_view and edit)? When are they added? Thanx.

Antonio.

How can I start a new bbPress loop?

Thanks,

Kenny

[jjman]

I’m using the bbpress 2.1 and the inclusion of the fancy editor was really great. Thanks for your job!

@sniper kitten, is there a quick way to add the smiley button to the editor?

I was looking at the code but can’t see work it out. Some help would be appreciated.

[rorymorris]

I just had to work this out for myself too…

I think you can use this wherever you need to in your topics loop or template / whatever..

<? $curTopicStatus = bbp_get_topic_status( $topic_id );

if($curTopicStatus == 'publish'){ ?>



This topic is still open



<? } else { ?>



This topic is now closed



<? } ?>

If you learn to copy function names and do a search for them through your whole bbpress plugin folder, you can pretty much find out how anything works, this is how I worked this out. Think I had to go through a trail of 5 or 6 files until I worked it out

Hi,

Is there a resolution to this? I’m having the same issue and I want to install a lightbox feature into the BBpress and without the /plugins/bbpress/my-plugins path I’m lost on how to make this work.

I’m using bbPress 2.0.2 with WordPress 3.3.2

I’ll keep looking at the other topics as I see that this thread is 11 months old at the time of this posting.

Thanks for any help in advance.

EJ

Thax lynq for your help!

Hi, I just downloaded the licensed version of JW Player. I have it working fine on my websites main pages but not in bbpress. The div tag for the player is called in

as such:

<p style=”text-align: center;”><div id=”jwplayer-1-div” class=”Soundhampton Player”>

<div id=”jwplayer-1″></div>

When I post a video in Buddy Press the 2 Plugins don’t seem to be interacting. All i get is the shortcode posting in my forum.

as such:

[jwplayer config=”Soundhampton Player” mediaid=”1754″]

Can someone please tell me how to call the jwplayer div tag into bbpress in PHP? I think I understand what is happening, I just dint know how to get JW Player called into bbPress. Ive already checked the bbpress forum with no luck. This seems to be a first. Ive been researching this and tweaking my site for three days now.

Here is the working JW PLayer —-

And the non working one in Buddy Press
