I just found a small issue with this plugin: when no title for the message is given it still sends the message but the link to read it is invisibe (since it’s just <a></a>
with nothing in between.
@ardent: i can’t access your forums, i’m cut off from certain servers due to the Taiwan 7.1 Quake.
i’d love to try your plugins but i can’t, maybe in 3 weeks…
I just took a look at both codes and noticed that in the onlinelist plugin you’re using – 300 and on this one – 3600, notice the diference?
Why not run an absolute path?
require_once(/var/www/html/mysite_function.php);
Does that work?
If it is root bbPress folder, you could use what is in config.php
require_once( BBPATH . 'mysite_function.php' );
Should be pretty easy……?

On my site, I have a file of general purpose functions in the site root called “mysite_functions.php.” I have WordPress installed in /wordpress, and bbPress installed in /wordpress/bbpress. I have altered wp_setcookie() and wp_clearcookie() in a WordPress plugin. In those two functions, I use require_once('../mysite_functions.php');
, and then the function call. It works fine.
The problem comes in the bbPress plugins. I have a plugin overriding bb_login() and bb_logout(). In each of those functions I use the exact same code to call mysite_functions.php, but I get “failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [file path] [line number]”
In either case, the functions are unchanged with the exception of appending:
require_once("../mysite_functions.php");
call_my_function();
Alrighty, just to be a dumbarse, I’d love to use this plugin but I’ve NO idea how to do the “Upgrade the installation of bbPress to the latest version from the code repository” bit.
I’ve recently migrated from phpBB over to BBpress, with all my posts and topics thankfully intact… but I’ve some forums I need to hide.
Is there no way to hide forums based on the user level at all?
… the problem here is you can delete a forum but not the post entries in the database that are in said forum…
Cool! But how come some users’ email addresses show as just “1”?

I’m not sure, but it looks like a bad .mo file. The Plural-Forms line of the .po file should end with a semicolon (
.
If you are inactive for more than 5 minutes, you’re marked as offline. So if you go to the forum again later your last_visit is the time when you were there the time before.
(ehm .. sry… it’s hard for me to describe in english)
d3x7r0:
Strange … for me it works at the moment. Maybe some time problems … try removing the -3600
from line 53.
Just remember, this is beta! (maybe… alpha
)
yeah, so, this is what’s in functions.php (core file)
function bb_get_option( $option ) {
global $bb;
switch ( $option ) :
case 'uri' :
return $bb->domain . $bb->path;
break;
...
So, all it does it return those exact two things you posted concatenated together. It makes no sense for the developed link to have a /forums/ in it.
arden, here’s what’s in the config file:
$bb->domain = 'http://navfm.org';
$bb->path = '/bbpress/'
Is that what you mean?
since I use the function bb_get_option('uri')
to build the link, I have no clue why it would be showing up as /forums instead of /bbpress for you. I assume it’s correct in your config.php file?
This was like one of those light bulb times for me – like years ago when I realized you could have an image link inside an href tag. Now I know you can have a php snippet inside one as well. It’s the little things.
Thanks again –
Make it simple for now until Ardenfrost can answer! Change that line to:
<li class="view"><a href="http://navfm.org/bbpress/mlist.php">Member List</a></li>
Just add in your actual URL (hardcode it!)
Trent
Sorry, that was supposed to read, “adding this line:
<li class="view"><a href="<?php bb_memberlist_link(); ?>">Member List</a></li>
“
The only bit of code I changed in front_page.php was adding this line:
<li class=”view”>“>Member List
?php if ( $bb_current_user->ID ) : ?>
<div id="viewdiv">
<h2><?php _e('Views'); ?></h2>
<ul id="views">
<?php foreach ( get_views() as $view => $title ) : ?>
<li class="view"><a href="<?php view_link(); ?>"><?php view_name(); ?></a></li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<li class="view"><a href="<?php bb_memberlist_link(); ?>">Member List</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
<?php endif; else : // $forums ?>
I’m sure it’s something simple but i don’t know php.
I would go to front-page.php and check that the code you entered for the link is /bbpress/mlist.php and not /forum/mlist.php because you would of had to enter the link yourself.
Trent
I tried the beta but it doesn’t seem to be working for me
I have the onlinelist plugin and me and a friend of mine tried it like this:
one made a post while the other wasn’t on the website (even the browsers where closed) and 5 minutes latter the other went to the site and tried to use the function.
The result? a blank page 
http://www.ngagept.net/forum
here you go bbolman
<php
add_action('bb_head' , 'my_plugin_function_name');
function my_plugin_function_name() {
?>
stuff that you want to put
<?php
}
?>
Hum… never did thought of using css for it… still people would still load the entire image thus making my bandwidth issue valid
You should be able to do request 1 similarly to how I do it with the private message plugin. You fill the string separately, then just call it to be displayed. I haven’t looked at your code yet, but you should be able to have a function that does the if/else for you, then just call it from where you want the link placed.
Thanks for this super great feedback Trent!
1) This is something my plugin can’t do. You have to change the views-template, because this message is also missing in any other view without contents. Maybe something for a trac-ticket?
Just add
<?php else: ?>
<p>Sorry, no matching posts found!</p>
in front of the last <?php endif; ?>
in the views template.
2) I’ll implement a function for this 
3) Maybe like the latest discussions on the front-page? … Yeah, it’s a good idea instead of leaving it blank!
4) Donno exactly. When I look at the views-code there seems to be paging functionality already?!
5) I thought of this issue, too. It adds a few queries on every page refresh, but I have no idea how to optimize this.
Thanks again man!
Thanks guys! Y’all are a huge help to way unpolished hacks like myself.
