I have a question-

One of my members wants to make sure he stays logged in. I had an SMF forum which allowed you to choose “stay logged in for a week” or “forever”. He would like something similar, and claims he has to log in every time he comes back to the forum.

I know I don’t have that issue, but I’m also the keyholder- is it supposed to be automatic that someone stays logged in?

If not, is there a plugin, or a hack, that could make this possible?

Thanks.

EDIT: To elaborate on this, I have integrated this with wordpress, and I’m beginning to wonder if I have an integration problem:

He registered through BBpress, and the account was created in my WP-admin, no problem. I asked him to try logging in to the WP control panel, to see if checking “remember me” on that login was what did it. He couldn’t log in with his BBpress password, not even the random one that was sent to him.

I had to go in and manually set the password for him. Is that how it’s supposed to work? Am I going to have to do this for each user created? (I can’t believe that, so there must be another issue.)

Sorry to bring up two problems in the same thread, if it’s better I can start a new one for the integration issue.

Thanks in advance.

Hello, I’ve been trying out this product and really loved it. I’m wondering if anyone of the experts out there be interested to help me setup a site with bbpress and wp? Just a simple site will do nothing complex.

And of course to show my support for this community, I’ll pay for your work

Please let know if there’s any interest?

Thanks heaps

On the end of URLs in my forums it always attaches a ?replies=# to the topic link (or redirects you if you open a topic without that in the url) where # is the number of replies to the topic. It’s really ugly and I want to get rid of it; no other forums apart from this one that I’ve seen have it! I’m using slug permalinks but I believe it was there before that. I’ve got the rules from bb-admin/rewrite-rules.php in my .htaccess because Multiviews didn’t seem to work for me. Anyone know how to get rid of that?

Edit the template file front-page.php so that the ‘latest discussions’ part is beneath the ‘forums’ part.

[M]

I registered as ‘M’ on the wp forums ages ago.

And I run all my registrations through wp instead of bbpress, so I’m no help with this one other than that.

I took e site down but check out http://www.learnsushi.org/community and

http://www.learnsushi/community/bb

What else needed from me?

[Beer]

The add_action( ‘under_title’ .. ) part has me curious. Where does the ‘under_title’ come into play? I was trying to find it in my bbpress code. I want to add a wide 250×250 block for example under ‘Add this topic to your favorites’ on the left of the tags column.

http://www.grindhouse.com/forums/topic/26?replies=1

How can I accomplish this?

[Trent Adams]

They can by styled through style.css:

<div class="nav">

<span class='page-numbers current'>

<a class='page-numbers'>

Check for those attributes in the CSS sheet.

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to have bbPress uses the style-sheet etc. from the template

I am using for WordPress, in order to have the same look and feel through the entire site.

That would be a real integration

Thanks

I no longer have element attributes such as href, title, rel, or cite for content posted by users. For example:

This is a <a href="http://www.link.com" title="a link">Link</a>

becomes:

<a>Link</a>

i figured this was something in bb-includes/formatting functions, but everything looks right to me:

function bb_allowed_tags() {

$tags = array(

'a' => array(

'href' => array(),

'title' => array(),

'rel' => array()),

'blockquote' => array('cite' => array()),

'br' => array(),

'code' => array(),

'pre' => array(),

'em' => array(),

'strong' => array(),

'ul' => array(),

'ol' => array(),

'li' => array()

);

return apply_filters( 'bb_allowed_tags', $tags );

}

does anyone have any ideas?

Any chance that we can add smilies from the emoticon plugin into the sigature? Or at least an IMG tag?

[starrett]

fel, cool – the code you are using works great. Unfortunately, I’m still getting the IP address in the links that bbSync is creating in the forums – you can see an example of this here. Strangely, it’s also failing to grab the correct category when trying to make the links. Here’s the output on that page:

http://208.***.197.39/wp/uncategorized/12-year-old-boy-dies-after-rock-n-roller-coaster-ride/

I don’t really have any idea what is going on there. Oh, and one more little thing – is there anyway to have the number of replies appear on the WP page, as opposed to the replies themselves? I was discussing the plug-in with a buddy over the weekend and he suggested that might be useful. So, instead of listing the replies and then saying “Reply!” It would simply say something like “Join the discussion in the forums (4)” Just a thought.

Change it in your template.

Find your theme’s logged-in.php file. Look for bb_profile_link() and change it to

bb_profile_link( "Use my text instead" );

(If you’re using the default theme, first copy the bb-templates/kakumei/ directory to a new directory called my-templates/my-theme/, activate that new theme from the Presentation admin panel and edit those files instead).

[fel64]

What’s the exact text it’s spitting out and what settings have you got?

Oh, right. I think I modified that function for my own nefarious purposes. bbreplylink() now returns the URL to the forum topic. So that this would give you the url:

<?php echo bbreplylink(); ?>

I did that for a little more template flexibility. This is what I’m using:

<?php if($topic_id = felwptobb( $id ) ) { echo '<a href="' . bbreplylink( $topic_id ) . '">Reply!</a>'; } else { comments_popup_link('&nbsp;comments', '1 comment', '% comments','',''); } ?>

Do you think that should be changed to make a single template tag? I guess it would be easier to use. Any suggestions?

[scratbycoastalerosion]

the bb instructions for integration say that to include WP functions in bb you need to include the put require_once('path/to/wp-blog-header.php' in bb’s config.php file.

i’ve done that and things work ok until I go into bb admin at which point it all dies coz it can’t find the wp file.

anyone had this, got a solution?

[wittmania]

Update: Somebody asked me how to add a name (instead of just the e-mail address) to the new message received e-mail notification. To do this, just use this format:

$admin_email = "Your Name <you@yourdomain.com>";

When the e-mail is delivered, it will show up as being from “Your Name” and not “you@yourdomain.com”. I’m not sure that this will work on all PHP configurations, but it works on mine.

Woops, rather nasty typo above. Author is spelt with an o, so make that

<td class="num"><?php topic_author(); ?></td>

You already have those columns, dlevy, or do I misunderstand? By default it shows the last poster and when.

[fel64]

No, to be fair I wasn’t. Looking deep into its bowels I can’t see anything that would set $forum_id, although that could be an oversight.

Kakumei does go into main trac.

[fel64]

Not repeatable for me. Topics made since .8.2 in my active forums on Linux / php 4.4.4 I think have been made by a direct call to bb_new_topic(), and under xampp topics made normally also do not have this problem.

Riddle: do please add these to trac if you haven’t already. Login is the same as here.

[fel64]

Why don’t you just set your custom title to “Supermegaadmin”? That should get the message across without needing you to make a new account.

[fel64]

Look for the block of code that makes the forums in front-page.php and in forum.php. Add this in there.

<td class="num"><?php topic_auther(); ?></td>

<td class="num"><?php topic_start_time(); ?></td>

The topic_start_time() expects the format to be MySQL time. They do not need an argument to work but they can have one for whatever reason, I don’t know. I just found these by going into bb-includes/template-functions.php.

[Arlo]

Whew, I’m not crazy!

[fel64]

$tag = str_replace(',', '', $tag);

(That’s not the actual code you need, just an illustration.)

You could be doing this with a plugin, which is probably preferable as you don’t have to hack the core every time. The filter you want is probably bb_tag_sanitize but I’m not sure. Check http://bbpulp.org/wiki/API/filters and http://bbpulp.org/wiki/API/actions.
