Oh also John, forgot to mention one thing… with regards to making a topic that cannot be replied to, I can’t use the “close” approach because it actually causes the topic to disappear visually, and nobody can see it. Not sure why, maybe it’s just a bug… but it’s certainly strange.

Any idea how to fix it?

Thanks,

Jonathan

Hey John, welcome back.

Re: unread posts, I actually had it created as a plugin and the basics work very nicely, just writing to wp_usermeta to keep track of what posts each user has read. Don’t know if that’s the best approach but it’s what myself and Pippin over at http://www.pippinspages.com came up with. He did the heavy lifting and gave me quite an education on WP plugin development!

On to another question however… I see that bbP has options for “Allow users to mark topics as favorites?” as well as “Allow users to subscribe to topics” but they don’t appear to do anything. I hard-edited loop-topics.php to force those options to display and sure enouogh there are buttons for those things, but they never show up. Why is that? I’ve currently got two different plugins to try to achieve this functionality and it would be WAY better if it’s already built in, as it seems to be! Any insight on how to enable them?

Thanks for what is definitely an awesome forum platform!

Jonathan

hey, thanks timskii

it did great!

i’m under wordpress 3.0.5 and the latest version of bbPress

for defualt’s permalinks (standard profile.php?id=.. type)

you can try this replacement:

replace:

$my_profile_destination = $my_forums_directory.”profile/”.esc_attr( str_replace( ” “, “-“, strtolower( $user_login ) ) ).”/edit”;

with:

$my_profile_destination = $my_forums_directory.”profile.php?id=”.$current_user->ID;

isn’t there any WP plugin for this? we should take it into something more customizable. To make it easy to use, what do you think? I’m not experienced with lots of wp code but this could be helpful for others too.

anyone willing to help?

Well with major help from Pippin over at http://www.pippinspages.com this weekend, I have this feature working quite nicely. It needs a touch more polish around a few of the edges but all in all it’s very nice. Talking to him I believe we plan to release it to the bbP Plugin project to use as you all see fit. I’ll keep you posted!

Hi there.

I am trying to install bbPress on my WordPress website, but I’m not quite sure what I am doing. I downloaded the .zip, uploaded it onto my server, but I’m not sure where to place it to get the desired effect or how to even start the install prompt.

I want to make the forum appear at this address, a page created with WordPress:

http://www.swtortcg.com/forums/

Thanks so much to anyone can help!

Ramiuz, the security hole is important. I recommend that you upgrade.

I´ve been using 1.02 for something like two years now. So the security hole is obvioysly not that important.

I´ll wait for 1.1.

Hi,

I’ve tried adding a new plugin to the repository using the form at http://bbpress.org/plugins/forum/requests. This went fine, I got the request done, but then — nothing.

If I’ve understood correctly, I should have received an email with instruction/link to the SVN. This didn’t happen though.

I did this a couple hours ago. Am I just too hasty, or is something not quite working?

[John James Jacoby]

Sorry for being absent the past few days; was away at a team event and did not have much time to reply.

I have the hidden topic/reply issue resolved, but will need to test it before committing.

@tooltrainer – You can “close” forums without making them hidden, which should act the way you need. Regarding marking topics as ‘read,’ bbPress has never kept track of previously read topics, but it could be done either with cookies, or the last_activity of the user. Thinking this might make a better plugin than a core feature, but we’ll see how the next few weeks looks. In the meantime, feel free to create a ticket at trac.bbpress.org and mark it as an ‘enhancement’ and I’ll research it.

On thinking this through I don’t think it’s possible to know if a post has been read or not, it doesn’t look like the plugin even keeps track of that at all, does it? Since every forum topic is really just a post internally, I don’t think it’s even *possible* to track read/unread in the current state. Would require some sort of lookup table to match each user to the read state of each forum topic… bleh.

I’ve put so much work into integrating the bbP plugin into my site, I really don’t want to switch gears now. If anyone has any suggestions on the best way to tackle this, please speak up!

Thanks…

Jonathan

Hello I have installed bbpress and I got this error. I think in the folder includes/functions.bb-admin.php the file is there.

Any suggestion to solve this problem?

Thank you very much

Is it possible to make specific posts (or even entire forums?) read-only? I have a “rules of this forum” sticky post and I’d like it to be read only. I can close the topic but then it disappears and can no longer be seen, which struck me as very odd.

It appears that this ability is in the standalone bbP but not sure about the plugin…?
