Of course
If you have experience with WordPress theming, it’s even easier. Took me a couple hours to make my forum match my site.
Also, thanks for the welcome, ck! I do more theme customizations for WP but usually do it all the quick and dirty way, cramming things into function.php file rather than packaging it up nicely, and I often just hack features into other plugins to get it all working the way I want. Right now as far as bbPress is concerned on my to-do list is to find a good solution for manually marking spam posts, work email notification into the pm plugin, and set up the post notification to send email by default. Just haven’t had time to look into all that yet… if there are any existing solutions/patches, please let me know! Otherwise I’ll probably look into it at some point and contribute what I can (if anyone else is interested).
Great! I was going to work on that in a few weeks
I just wanted to share the experience I have gathered while working, designing and pushing bbPress so as to not look like a generic bbPress instance. My latest work are these forums (the rest of the site is WordPress), and if you have the time please consider registering to be able to play a bit with the design from a member-perspective (enjoyed better in Safari). I would appreciate your feedback.
I am really captivated by the possibilities bbPress offers; but I also feel the obscurity of these possibilities are somehow hindering proper development in the design department. The lack of a proper and exhaustive codex, readable for theme authors —without having to dig into core files—, remains as the biggest obstacle. I am all for contributing, should it be possible, in this way or another.
Integration, in and of itself, shouldn’t matter though. Shared DB does not integration make, and I think that pinning it on ‘integration’ may send some folks down the wrong path.
Check your language file, check your charset for your DB. Let us know!
Oh and by the way Ann, welcome to bbPress (though I see you were around here a few months ago for a short bit).
Seems like you know how to code so that’s great to see, hopefully you’ll get addicted to bbPress too and churn out some plugins
I doubt the post is being “mulled over” though, as it’s been deleted and not closed. I know this because i went to fix a typo less than 2 minutes after posting (there’s a typo in the firs paragraph) and it was closed. So who every closed it, did so without reading the post. It was deleted not long after.
As a fellow bbAdmin, I’m sure you know that a deleted post remains in the DB and can be read from the admin console.
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/how-to-help-us-help-bbpress?view=all will work for an admin/mod/key master etc.i would like to reiterate that if people still refer to this as an open-source project and us contributors as a community, then we have to accept that there will be voices out there that don’t 100% agree with us on everything. Deleting posts that detail such opinions only makes the consensus of a view point insular and narrow.
I don’t feel the same, which is not to say I disagree with the sentiment. I can see how it could be viewed that way, but that isn’t how I see it. Nuff said, we can chat semantics of open-source ethics elsewhere!
Also to your three questions: No one can answer # 1. Ever. The ‘Right’ direction for you is different than for me and for _ck_ and for everyone else. ‘Right direction’ is way too subjective. And as a developer, I hate when people ask me ‘Would it be easier to start over?’ Maybe. But I can’t tell you how long it’d take to reinvent the wheel, and I’m sure that I’d have problems that other people have already solved. It’s a Catch-22 to the extreme.
I’d ask this:
1) Is bbPress moving?
2) Are you (developers) satisfied with the direction it’s moving in?
3) Are you (users) satisfied with the product, as it is? Does it live up to the goals, as expressed by the development team?
If # 1 is a no, then you leave the project or fork it.
If # 2 is a no, then you scrap and restart (or fork it).
If # 3 is a no, bear in mind I do not mean ‘Yeah, but I want built in smilies!’ That’s not a design goal. That’s a wishlist. Design goals are things like WP/BB integration (stated as a goal by the devs). But if it is, indeed, a no, then you really are left with the same choices. Leave or fork.
I think I’m just really keen on saying fork today *halo*
Getting slashes before quotes/apostrophes in bbPress 1.0-alpha-6 integrated with WP.
Have searched forum for solution, but most seem to be from 2 years ago (what can be found anyway). The core file that needs to be edited (bb-includes/template-functions.php) in those instructions is no longer called that (yes, i know which one it has become), but the code also looks markedly different.
While I have *some* PHP knowledge and can follow most step-by-step stuff, I’m starting out with a different syntax than the instructions, which makes me a little nervous.
Here’s the code I think I may need to change:
‘function get_post_text( $post_id = 0 ) {
$bb_post = bb_get_post( get_post_id( $post_id ) );
return apply_filters( ‘get_post_text’, $bb_post->post_text, $bb_post->post_id );’
and then what about forum titles?
Is there an easier way to do this now, or do the core files still have to be edited?
Topic: Customize Front Page…
I’m trying to combine some of the functions in the “Latest Discussions” table with the main “Forums” table. I’d like to include the “Latest Poster” and “Freshness” to my forums section. So far, I’ve successfully displayed these items within the table, but they’re not showing the appropriate data. Instead, I’m getting only the most recent poster and freshness displayed for every forum. This should help clarify:
www (dot) eco-wheelz (dot) com/forum
This is the code:
<table id="forumlist">
<tr>
<th><?php _e(‘Main Categories’); ?></th>
<th><?php _e(‘Topics’); ?></th>
<th><?php _e(‘Posts’); ?></th>
<th><?php _e(‘Last Poster’); ?></th>
<th><?php _e(‘Freshness’); ?></th>
</tr>
<?php if ( $topics ) : foreach ( $topics as $topic ) : ?>
<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?>
<tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?><?php topic_class(); ?>>
<td><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘<div class=”nest”>’ ); ?>“><b><font color=”#339900”><?php forum_name(); ?></font></b><small><?php forum_description(); ?></small><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘</div>’ ); ?></td>
<td class=”num”><?php forum_topics(); ?></td>
<td class=”num”><?php forum_posts(); ?></td>
<td class=”num”><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td>
<td class=”num”>“>
<?php topic_time(); ?></td>
</tr>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endforeach; endif; // $topics ?>
</table>
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!
I’ve read the threads on the problem with 0.9.0.4 and php4. For example:
Are we going to see a version before 1.0 that I can run properly without upgrading the server to php5?
I like this a little better
<div class="threadauthor">
<a href="<?php echo get_user_profile_link(get_post_author_id()) ?>">
<?php post_author_avatar(); ?><br />
<?php post_author(); ?></a>
<br />
<a href="<?php echo get_user_link(get_post_author_id()) ?>"><small><?php post_author_title(); ?></small></a>
</div>nobody cares if bbPress stable will be ready in many months _ck_. I think the biggest problem here is this:
The community: we, us, who use bbPress (alpha or not) report bugs, try all, use your plugins, make it public… we are also a piece of the “raise of bbPress”. We are all very thankfull for the work that you guys do, but what if nobody use it? It would be work for nothin. And it’s just a thing of respect and good will to get the community informated. So if e.g. you don’t know when its ready, dont write “stop asking” or “ready when ready”… try instead “i don’t know” …? So all of us will wait for a reply from someone that knows. Like Sam. And he replied. And it was really informative for us all. Lots of ppl like me are a little happier
now, so where is the problem? Chill…(sorry if you cant understand my english)
and just for my personal info: are you (_ck_) working on bbPress itself? or “just” the plugins? Because why reply you always to this questions if the question is not for you (when you’re not working on core product)?
