yes please!

I’d even be willing to kick in some cash if we want to get together, hire someone to write it, and then donate the code back to the bbpress project.

I think I need a little help with this one. I’m running 0.9.0.2 now.

Here’s the section in functions.php:

function get_profile_info_keys() {

return apply_filters( 'get_profile_info_keys', array(

'user_email' => array(1, __('Email')),

'user_url' => array(0, __('Website')),

'from' => array(0, __('Location')),

'occ' => array(0, __('Occupation')),

'interest' => array(0, __('Interests')),

) );

}



function get_profile_admin_keys() {

global $bbdb;

return apply_filters( 'get_profile_admin_keys', array(

$bbdb->prefix . 'title' => array(0, __('Custom Title'))

) );

}

So if I move that section up to get_profile_info_keys, it should look like this, correct?

function get_profile_info_keys() {

global $bbdb;

return apply_filters( 'get_profile_info_keys', array(

'user_email' => array(1, __('Email')),

'user_url' => array(0, __('Website')),

'from' => array(0, __('Location')),

'occ' => array(0, __('Occupation')),

'interest' => array(0, __('Interests')),

$bbdb->prefix . 'title' => array(0, __('Custom Title')),

) );

}

That pretty much removes everything from get_profile_admin_keys, so do I just take that entire section out?

Thanks for the helping hand…

No, I didn’t install any SMTP functionality on the server. Like I said, I’m new to this and I guess I didn’t realize when I asked the question last night that I needed that functionality installed.

After looking through other posts and the code, I think I’ll be able to figure it out. It will work better for me and the nature of the website for the forum to not email the password, but to display it instead. So I am going to go that route. Sorry for any inconvenience.

[monstr]

hm. i’d also like to have such a function… perhaps anyone will code it some time. i don’t think it’s that complicated..

[gerikg]

I’m not a php person but I think it’s <?php search_form(); ?>

For the main page you have to put it in frontpage.php in the Kakumei folder.

Muchas gracias ggnard

Yo también empecé a traducirlo pero, a falta de saber si se pueden combinar varios catálogos .po, preferí esperarme a la nueva versión de la traducción. La que hay en el SVN creo que es de la 0.8.3… por eso lo dejé ya que en WordPress el cambio de versiones en algunas ocasiones no era del todo compatible e imagino que en BBPress tampoco

PD: Ahora que caigo… estoy usando la que tenía acabada de la 0.8.3 xDD

Ya la colgaré también por ahí

Hi folks, there seem to be many people out there having similar issues, but I’ve spent all evening looking through for a solution and still no luck.

I’m trying to do a full integration of bbPress 0.219 and WordPress 2.51, full integration meaning that bbPress should load WordPress functions and vice versa.

WordPress appears to be playing very nicely and loading bbPress template tags with no problems at all. I’ve done this using

//BBPress Integration

if ( !defined('BBDB_NAME') )

require_once(ABSPATH.'forum/bb-load.php');

at the very end of my wp-config.php file, as per the tutorial at

http://www.adityanaik.com/integratepress-part-i/ . As I say, no problem so far.

It’s when I try to load WP functions into bbPress that I run into trouble. When I’ve attempted either of the following two mods to bb-config.php, it has disabled user login, as well as blocking me from /bb-admin (which re-directs straight back to home). The two mods to bb-config.php I have tried are:

// WordPress Integration //

define('WP_BB', true);

if ( !defined('DB_NAME') ) {

require_once( dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-config.php');

}

// **Wordpress Variables ** //

$bb->wp_table_prefix = 'wp_'; // your wordpress db prefix is

$bb->wp_home = 'http://localhost/bloomag';

$bb->wp_siteurl = 'http://localhost/bloomag';

or simply

require_once( 'C:testingserverwwwbloomagwp-blog-header.php');

With both these mods, the bbPress page loads up with no problems but, as I say, both /bb-admin and any attempt to log-in give no response and just redirect to the hompage.

Has anyone got any suggestions for what might be going wrong and the correct method to call WP functions into bbPress?

Thanks a lot,

>Ben

[monstr]

haha jehaw, this rocks! thank you

is there a option that lets you disable the thingy for the topics? i’m using the other plugin flying around here, because i want the topics to be also indicated when you have not posted to them before…

e: okay, i did this in css now, by simply giving the forums a different class and excluding the style for the topics. well i think there is a better solution somehow

e: the coolest solution would be your plugin having a setting wich you can activate so that the topics & forums are also marked if you didn’t post to them before. perhaps you could do this

thank you alot for this so far. i really was praying someone would do this

[_ck_]

gerikg, I can help you with these questions easier if you post them on the plugin page for they are related.

in bb-signatures you can simulate an HR by changing the border-top in the CSS

go into the admin menu plugins->signatures and look down in the CSS area and change border-top:1px solid #aaa; to whatever you’d like. If you want it thicker, make 1px, 2px or more. If you want a different color, change the #aaa to any other color.

[gerikg]

I would like to put an HR code between the post text and the signature but I can not find it. help?

[_ck_]

Okay version 0.8.7 of this can now indicate forums with new posts:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/unread-posts/

You will have to change the optional setting to true near the top of the plugin.

It defaults to highlighting the title in blue but you can also change the css to append an icon, etc. instead.

[_ck_]

After some thought, it occurs to me I could make some (optional) code that would pre-check all the read topics lists for a user and see if the last topic had changed, and then build a list of forums affected.

Interesting challenge, I might give it a shot.

[monstr]

somehow my forum adds links to pages that do not exist. i dont understand this

for eg (the topic hast only 2 pages):

topic.php?id=15&page=7#post-92

what is this?

e: appears WITH and WITHOUT plugins acitvated.

could it be a “front page topics” bug?

[Marcoz]

Hi there!

I just started to experiment with bbPress and will integrate it into my family’s blog installation which of course runs WordPress.

While playing around with it, I noticed some missing labels on form controls. These missing associations cause screen readers to not pick up on the right stuff to speak when focus moves to a certain textbox, combobox or the like.

So, I went ahead and filed ticket #871 to deal with this and submitted a patch.

If you’re interested in accessibility, I invite you to follow that trac ticket!

Marco

[monstr]

affact, your code is just what i was searching for. unfortunately it just doesn’t work

[Tommie Hansen]

This is very important if one already got a forum but want to have a *GOOD* integration with WordPress on a new site.

Imagine loosing 4000 users just to be able to change to bbPress. It just won’t happen and it’s a damn shame that there isn’t a converter yet.

[dangrey]

Any chance someone could have a look at this? It’s a small plugin so it can’t be that hard, I’d do it myself but don’t know php

[_ck_]

What you are asking for is very easy.

$forums = get_forums(); gets you all the forums,

$topics = get_latest_topics( $forum_id); will get you the topics list for any forum id. So if you looped through the forums like on the front page, just fetch the $topics after each forum in the loop.

The formatting and page layout is the “hard” part.

[Trent Adams]

I would go back to the 0.8.3.1 release myself until Donncha releases the upgrade to WPMU. You can find the older release of bbpress at:

https://trac.bbpress.org/browser/branches/0.8

That or you have to work on the plugin to get the old md5 hashes working again. It might be easier on your users to just get the older version running again though

Trent

[Jason]

Ah, thanks I hadn’t bothered to go back and see if those minor things were working correctly on the old server.

[howtogeek]

You’ll need to use the PHP functions to check the cookies… bbpress doesn’t use sessions by default.

Also, you wouldn’t want to simply use the userid, because that would be insecure since anybody could hack a cookie with any username.

bbPress and WP both store two cookies, the username and the encrypted hash of the password. You’ll have to use those in combination to do a lookup to the database to make sure they both match. I’d advise taking a look through the bbpress source code… it’s not terribly difficult to understand.

The other thing you could do… you could create a plugin / hack for bbPress to assign a session parameter after a successful login, which you could then check for in your other code.

[irr1449]

I don’t have the code infront of me right now, but is it just going to be something like

$_SESSION

And then that would give me the userId which I could then query the users table with?

[fokjulle]

Yes, that seems to have worked.

[howtogeek]

I wrote my own replacement plugin for the mail function that uses the Swift Mailer PHP class to call sendmail directly, which should provide better performance over the built-in php mail functions.

It also gives the the chance to assign a display name to the email address so it comes through as “bbPress Support Forum” instead of just “forum@bbpress.org”.

if ( !function_exists('bb_mail') ) {

function bb_mail($to, $subject, $content, $headers=''){



require_once('PATH_TO/Swift/lib/Swift.php');

require_once('PATH_TO/Swift/lib/Swift/Connection/Sendmail.php');



$swift =& new Swift(new Swift_Connection_Sendmail("/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs"));

$from = new Swift_Address("noreply@mysite.com","My bbPress Forums");



$message =& new Swift_Message($subject, $content);

if ($swift->send($message, $to, $from)) {return true;}

else{ echo "Message failed to send to ".$to." from ".$from;}

$swift->disconnect();

}

}

To use this, you’d have to download Swift from their site and put it where it’s included in the above code.

http://www.swiftmailer.org/

You could also modify it to connect to an external SMTP server (even the Gmail server, for instance) by changing the Swift_Connection part above using this guide:

http://www.swiftmailer.org/wikidocs/v3/connections/smtp

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Since bb_mail() is in pluggable.php, it can be completely replaced by a plugin without having to modify any core files.

I suggest you write your plugin to do that instead of requiring people to modify pluggable.php.

/*

Plugin Name: SMTP PEAR blah

*/



if ( !function_exists( 'bb_mail' ) ) :

function bb_mail() {

// my replacement for bb_mail()

}

endif;
