Yes – that’s a great idea

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

There’s a plugin for images: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/5?replies=14

The <blockquote> tag is allowed by default.

[Emre Erkan]

If it is possible, yes.

Grazie tante

[spencerp]

I’m still in the process of doing things with it, so, if you find things quirky, please be patient…

Anyway, I tried to get the blog’s theme around the forums themselves. I used the blog’s imagery, blog’s style.css codes right in the original bbPress stylesheet.. and so forth. I also used the WordPress.org/support/ user profile layout basically..

Well, what you think?

Be gentle!!

Nevermind, I took out the path to the wp-blog-header.php file now, and adjusted my theme accordingly. If someone wants to try and figure it out though, feel free.. Might be useful later on sometime..

I’ve already posted this to the list, and I’ve also checked that disabling the one in the blog, stops this from happening. However though, the plugin won’t work and do what’s it supposed too! Anyway.. on with the B.S…

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare bb_int_set_current_user() (previously declared in /home/mypath/myuser/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress-integration.2.php:14) in /home/mypath/myuser/public_html/forums/my-plugins/bbpress-integration.2.php on line 13

I got this error after uploading, and activating the newest bbpress-integration.2.php plugin.

I uploaded the two too:

my-plugins/ directory

wp-content/plugins/ directory

Please note though: I’m using the full path to my wp-blog-header.php file, in the forum’s config.php file.

I also have the following for near footer of the config.php if it make’s a difference:

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // WordPress table prefix. Example: ‘wp_’;

$bb->wp_home = ‘false’; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // No trailing slash. Example: ‘http://example.com’

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘false’; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // No trailing slash. Example: ‘http://example.com’

// Use the following line *only* if you will be loading WordPress everytime you load bbPress.

define(‘WP_BB’, true);

I’m doing this, to be able to use some of my blog’s wp functions, for wrapping the blog’s theme around my forums..

Is there a way to work around this, or..? Thanks in advanced!

Works great, i got most of it translated to danish

[Stefano Aglietti]

Yes please add me for the it_IT translationon SVN so i will put there my translation files.

About the POT i checked a diff with the one i generated nd they looks the same then it’s all ok

[A1ex]

Not at all!

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Yup!

In fact, if anyone wants one now, I can set it up for you.

Also… that’s the first pot file I’ve ever made. Can you please let me know of any issues

[silkjaer]

Thanks

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Sadly, by the time you get to the registration template, the user has already been added.

You could write a plugin that, during the bb_init hook, checks to see if $_SERVER matches the registration link and, if so, send a header(“Location: http://blah.blah/my-reg.php”).

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

I really want to know wy this works in PHP5 but not PHP4.

This needs to get fixed at the source.

startribe (or anyone who has seen this problem): Can you de me a favor? Unfix the problem, then add $bb->debug = 1; on the first line of bbPress’ config.php file.

Go to the tags page, and you should see some ugly text at the top of the screen. Can you paste that text here?

Thanks!

[ardentfrost]

BTW, that displays something like this:

01/05/07 at 10:21:21

[ardentfrost]

Here’s how I do it in my private messages plugin

strftime("%m/%d/%y at %r",strtotime($timevar)+($bb->gmt_offset * 60 * 60))

Where $timevar is the time that I passed to the function.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Did you find the source of the problem? Even better, did you find a solution?

[seriouslydustin]

I’ve been scouring the whole code for bbPress and still couldn’t figure out how to set up the format just how I want it for Date and Time (for the post).

Can anyone tell me where to go for such edits?

Much thanks.

[Ahni]

ah! I went to trackdown what I added, and realized I was calling the author ID, which is evidently wrong… but this allowed me to get the profile of the logged in user:

<a href="<?php global $userdata;

get_currentuserinfo();

echo('http://intercontinentalcry.mahost.org/discussions/profile.php?id=' . $userdata->ID . '');

?>">Your Profile</a></li>

Thanks trent! You may have only said five words, but they led me to the solution I was looking for – Ahni

Hmm, I don’t think any bbpress functions are loaded when your WP is loaded is it? If not, then you’ll have to build the link from scratch. Link building in bbpress is one of those things you just gotta figure out from doing it a few times (and staring at core code).

Since you’re doing it specifically for your forums, it doesn’t necessarily have to be in plugin form (which is preferable for me since I never made WP plugins). So I would do something like this:

Look at the code used to get the logged in user’s name.

Get the ID of that user anyway you can (you can search the db for the username or use a wp function that I don’t know about).

Start the link formation like $link = “http://zenhelix.us.to/forums/profile/”

Then you can either add the user ID directly to the end using a regular expression ( add a .$userid to the end of the previous line) or just do $link += $userid;

Setup the link with the a href and all that junk.

I wish I could give you more specific code, but like I said, I’ve never done much WP coding.

[ardentfrost]

I didn’t know jack about much of this stuff 2 months ago. I had programmed before, but nothing super special (I did an RSS parser for me and my friends’ main webpage, rayd.org). I just kinda got ambitious with this stuff.

Everything you need to know to do this stuff is in the core code (I’ve pulled so many stylistic and methodological things from preexisting code) and php.net. The only thing you need beyond that is ambition. Mine pretty much peeked when I did Private Messages. I can’t think of another project that will require that much work (though I’m sure there are, I just can’t think of any for now).

[ardentfrost]

I never get annoyed

I’ve been so busy at work I haven’t had a chance to update my PM plugin yet. It’s still next on my docket. I’ll add your request to my list of things to do.

Last time I sat down to work on it, I was having trouble adding a user search feature… so there’s still that

[vaelrith]

Will do, I check artentfrost’s forums about every day for a new plugin I think he might get annoyed with my constant requesting and never posting anything else…

BTW, good work on those plugins artentfrost

[Trent Adams]

Since the paths of where to pull the information for the PM plugin are hardcoded for bbPress installs, I don’t know if it is possible. Maybe drop a line to Ardentfrost at:

$first_post = $bbdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $bbdb->posts WHERE topic_id = $topic->topic_id AND post_position = 1");

That will give you the post OBJECT… from there you can pull out the text like this:

echo $first_post->post_text;

Or since it seems you want to pull out just the first little bit, just use a php string function to make it look and act like you want it to.

It’s not the most eloquent method, but it’s certainly simple.
