The Chicago forum’s id is 2

If the rest forums’ id are 3, 6, 12, then you should replace that line with

if (in_array(get_forum_id(), array(2, 3, 6, 12)))

PS. you don’t need to add additional links, the new code will take care of that you mention in your question #4.

[chgogrrl99]

Ok, so I have the id’s. So I should replace the old code you gave me with the new code?

Then, on my main site I can add them as links:

For example: “Chicago Forums” link is http://www.theangrywaiter.com/forum/id=2

Is this correct?

[livibetter]

You have to put the forum ids into this line (no need to put them all into this line, you can let big cities to be shown in front-page.php)

if (in_array(get_forum_id(), array(2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)))

You can get those id in Forum Management by move mouse over Edit links.

Those ids should belongs to top-level forums.

New code (edited):

<?php

if ( bb_forums() ) :

global $bb_forums_loop;

$_loop =& $bb_forums_loop;

bb_forum();

$skipForum = false;

while ($_loop) :

if ($_loop->walker->depth == 1) {

if (in_array(get_forum_id(), array(2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)))

$skipForum = true;

if ($skipForum) {

?>

<h2<?php bb_forum_class?>><a href="<?php forum_link(); ?>">Click Here To Go To the <?php forum_name(); ?> Forums</a></h2>

<?php

}

else {

?>

<h2<?php bb_forum_class?>><?php forum_name(); ?></h2>

<table id="forumlist">

<tr>

<th><?php _e('Main Theme'); ?></th>

<th><?php _e('Topics'); ?></th>

<th><?php _e('Posts'); ?></th>

</tr>

<?php

}

}

elseif (!$skipForum) {

?>

<tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_forum_pad( '<div class="nest">' ); ?><a href="<?php forum_link(); ?>"><?php forum_name(); ?></a><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>

</tr>

<?php

}

bb_forum();

if ($_loop === null || $_loop->walker->depth == 1) {

if (!$skipForum)

echo '</table>';

$skipForum = false;

}

endwhile; ?>

<?php endif; // bb_forums() ?>

Should be used for TESTING ONLY

Download this file

Install:

Put activate.php to your template folder.

Put bb-activate.php to your bbPress root folder.

Put EnhancedRegistration directory to my-plugins

Only tested on kakumei template without other plugins. Currently, it only support user activation. User will receive an additional mail with a code for activation. They can click the link within that mail, or manually navigate to the activation page.

And Key Master can delete user haven’t activated over ## hours.

Possible features in later releases: Registration Approval, Registration Email Verification.

Please tell me what do you think!

I was looking into this a little bit and ran into something weird. Click on a subforum in any of the cities and see where you end up. Check the breadcrumb navigation. Something doesn’t seem right there.

Also, you should change the a:hover line in your style.css as well. When you hover over a black link, it turns green now. You might want to make that match the red in your logo maybe.

a:hover { color: #006400; } on line 22, change the #006400 to your new hover color.

[chrishajer]

Color, bold and underline looks good.

I see the latest discussions are gone.

I see a logo but it’s under the login box, in Firefox 2.0.0.9 anyway. I won’t mess with that at all since you are going to redo it. You could move it over with some left-padding in the CSS if you wanted to.

For now, you could do something like add a text link to the website home, like I did here a long time ago:

http://www.riversideinfo.org/forum/

That is a modification to header.php to add that text link, and I think I modified the style.css to move it where I wanted it.

Regarding the cities, where’s livibetter? (seriously, I haven’t looked at it at all…)

[chgogrrl99]

Alright…this is working great!

I re-added the banner (it’s 760 x106 but I’m thinking of making a new one with the logo and something that says “Home Page” and then linking that to the main site).

And, yes, I did use the code above to make the different cities.

[chrishajer]

sambauers, are you saying I have to move to India or China to get a job like that? More work being taken away from Americans …

Seriously though, I have a few spam users registered every day, and they always link their username to a website, but there are never any posts by them (maybe I delete them soon enough after registering that they never make a post.) So, what good is it creating a user with a link to a website in a profile they never post from? Would a list of users show up somehow in a stock bbPress install where the links there could actually drive traffic to them somehow? I know WHY they do it, but if their username is never shown next to a post, how would the link to their site ever get picked up? I’ve always wondered about that.

Try inserting it again so people can see it and help you get it aligned properly

In your theme, find this around line 21 and change to whatever you like:

a { color: #2e6e15; text-decoration: none; }

a:hover { color: #006400; }

You can change the color and font weight and size there.

> 3. I’d like to eliminate “Latest Discussions”

> entirely.

In front-page.php, on line 11, change this:

<?php if ( $topics || $super_stickies ) : ?>

to this

<?php if ( 0 > 1 ) : ?>

That originally said “if there are topics or super_stickies” then do the rest, which is show the latest discussions. Changing it as shown will cause it to never show “Latest Discussions” because zero is never greater than one (the statement always evaluates false so the code block is skipped). If you want to actually rip out the code that would display the Latest Discussions, you would delete lines 12 to 41 in the file front-page.php in your theme. Those are the line numbers in the stock file, your line numbers might be different. Delete from

<?php if ( $topics || $super_stickies ) : ?>

to

<?php endif; // $topics or $super_stickies ?>

inclusive.

I have to think about that one. I imagine there’s a way to do it, but I haven’t ever done it. Since the name of the city is not a link, you’d have to make that a link to that category, and then suppress the listing of the child forums on the front page. Or, you could just create a new front-page.php that links to only those parent forums. Can you post a link to a screenshot of how you accomplished the different cities like that? Something from your admin panel, or a link to the post here that guided you toward separating things into cities like that?

WAIT: is it this that allowed you to separate the cities? I think livibetter could probably help you do what you want there since that was their code initially.

Yess .. i did it..

Wrote some lines that gets a posts TAGS .. how do i proceed ?

<?php

//

$post_id = "6";



@mysql_connect($db_host,$db_user,$db_pass) or die ("Couldnt connect to database!");

@mysql_select_db($db_name) or die ("Couldnt select the requested MySQL table!");



$fetch_post_tags = mysql_query("

if (mysql_num_rows($fetch_post_tags) > 0)

{

Please dont kill me.. im no pro coder..

[fel64]

Yo. That does help, cheers William. It sounds like I’m not getting rid of comments properly. For the ones that show up all duplicate, is the comment_type in the database comment?

vafaaaan, you’re always better off using the API. The actual relationship is this (with table names taken from vague memory) if I recall correctly:

wp_terms lists all the terms, stores data for them

wp_term_type assigns a type to the terms (so it says whether a term is a tag or a category)

wp_term_relationships links a term to an object, like a post

[vafaaaan]

fel: ok.. to bad .. im trying figure out the relationships in the DB , seems complex. Why isnt there a wp_tags table? Will you implement it? or should i try do some coding myself?

[richsad]

I should add that my objective is to change the info collected to be related to the nature of the website. Occupation, Location, and such is not the right data for the website in question.

I also note that these are text fields ONLY. The content creator of this particular website wanted a dropdown question. I talked her out of it, but how would you do something like that?

Lastly, WHERE is it documented how the profile system works if anywhere. I found the source code was all I could find.

[richsad]

Hi. I want to change the data that is collected in the Registration:Profile Information page of bbpress. Some background…

I have a bbpress/WPMU integration. The system is working fine in terms of the two sites being integrated. When a user goes to register for an account on the forum, they are presented with a form with name, email, website, occupation, location and interests. I see in the source code where the associative array is (get_profile_info_keys). So I could modify the fields there, but there must be some “proper” way to change the profile info that is gathered.

I apologize if this is plainly explained somewhere. I can’t seem to find any admin page related to changing the bbpress profile info. I’d prefer to do this the sanctioned way and not modify source files.

Reading other posts I see stuff about plugins and the profile, but surely that isn’t the easiest way to change the nature of the data collected?

[Null]

Same. I’ve tried this one, but I could still registrate without leaving the webpage field blank

I need something too and fast, cause I am getting at 200! registration spammers already and counting…

_Null

[chrishajer]

How about bb_current_user_can('moderate')?

[Ben L.]

How do I? I tried $user->caps['moderate'] and I tried $user->has_cap('moderate'). Neither worked. What am I doing wrong?

Edit: never mind, I figured it out.

[citizenkeith]

Thanks for writing this plugin.

Every time I update the restriction settings, my Private Forum plugin settings are reset to “Open To All.” Not sure if the problem is with this plugin or the Private Forum plugin.

[vafaaaan]

hmm ok think ill wait and get back to that page later then..

[fel64]

Ho hum. That’s pretty annoying, isn’t it? I put in a $bbdb->escape() because otherwise some database error would annoy me, but this way may well be worse. I’m not sure what to do; bb gets it nicely encoded through coming through $_POST I think. Still thinking about that one (if anyone knows what is probably quite obvious and tells me, that’d be great).

[vafaaaan]

hmm.. posts gets n´s all over them…

I put this in my template:

Not at all, it’s a perfectly reasonably question.

[vafaaaan]

omg sry ..

add_profile_tab(__(‘Name’), ‘edit_profile’, ‘moderate’, ‘this-file-was-missing.php’);

So many ppl in this forum .. i can’t breathe

[vafaaaan]

am i doing it right?

function ed08_tab_add()

{

add_profile_tab(__('ED 08'), 'ed08', 'moderate', 'ed08-template.php');

}

add_action('bb_profile_menu', 'ed08_tab_add');

cant get new profile tab/page link to work..
