Waiting for the gallery pics ….

[mriannnnnn]

ok you have to edit these pages:

front-page.php

forum.php

tag-single.php

just three files not much.

[spencerp]

I’d also like to see #4 implemented into bbPress, but I think we’ll have to at least get the “Forum Categories” plugin out first, then it might be a little easier for the subforums deal..

For #5, I thought I seen a post about this some where, where “they” were using the WP editor, with bbPress.. I could be wrong though.. All the other numbered requests sound good to me as well.. We’ll just have to see what comes out next lol..

[Mentally visualizes Josh, and the other plugin author’s rubbing their hands together.. and getting busy.. hahaha.. ]

Very nice idea! Keep it up as good as it is so far! I’ve added it to my bookmarks.

btw: My Post Notification Plugin?

[ardentfrost]

Hopefully I’ll have more time soon to knock out a few more plugins. I plan on updating Private Messaging first so that it works out of the box for integrated people. I started working on a User Search feature, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to finish it (maybe if I stopped trying to be cool by using AJAX). After that there’s a few things I want to start working on including Spencer’s forum category thing

I do have my personal forums setup to add feature requests for my plugins. And although I can’t promise results from requesting an entire new plugin, feel free to post them there. (at http://www.rayd.org/forums )

[spencerp]

Nice! Travel, thanks for this! Do you suppose anything in the database will need updated for this “fix”, or .. ? Just wondering..

[Null]

Thx spenc and 1.1 is dl 22 times and 1.0 over 50. There is just something wrong with the plugin when loading the admin page, its uploading then, but i don’t understand why the hell it does that

[spencerp]

Null, I’m not sure what to say, I haven’t downloaded this, and tested this yet.. (I’m not sure how many others did either lol, because there are no replies in here, but your own.. )

How many downloads have you had for this bbPortal so far? Maybe after some time here (after Holiday deal is over), and people get back into swing of things.. they’d start helping you figure this out..

I could download it, and try it locally once.. but, I myself is just swamped with stuff too.. I’ll see what I can do though.

[spencerp]

UPDATE: I just wanted to fill everyone in on what I have just done..

1) I downloaded and installed the Themed Login and Registration plugin for WordPress.

2) Upload it, then activate it as normal.

OR, If you are running WordPress version 2.1-alpha3.. Before uploading and installing this plugin, open the themed-logreg.php file..

Find this line:

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/registration-functions.php’);

Change it to this:

require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/registration.php’);

This is because in the 2.1-apha3 version, they just renamed some of the files in the wp-includes/ directory..

3) I made a page called: Where To

Since I have pretty permalinks on, the page’s location is here for example: domain.net/where-to/

In the Where To page’s Write Window, I added the following text/urls for example:

“If you are seeing this page, you now have the ability to access the following places with your username and password.

The <a href="wiki.yourdomain.net/">Codex</a>.

The <a href="yourdomain.net/forums/">Forums</a>.

The <a href="yourdomain.net/wp-admin/">Site Admin</a>. “

4) Under Plugins => Login Register Options =>

A) Under the: Uninstallation Options => I put check in box for: Toggle Complete Uninstall:

Under the: Redirect After Login: => I changed wp-admin/ to where-to/

If you have the normal setup for the permalinks, (for me on localhost this worked): /?page_id=11

Of course, change the actual number to your own..

C) Under the: Redirect After Logout: => I left this one at: wp-login.php

D) If you are using any other theme, then the “Gathering” theme, you might want to skip this section. And follow the directions for it, according to your theme’s layout!

Unless your sidebar call is like this.. in the index.php file:

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

Still in the Login Register Options, I left everything alone from there down TILL the part for the “Template Header Files: section..

D-1) Since I’m using the “Gathering” theme, the call for the sidebar, in the theme files is right after the header call.

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

D-2) In the Template Header Files: window, I made it like this:

header.php

sidebar.php

D-3) In the Template After Header HTML: window, I made it like this:

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php get_sidebar(); ?>

<div id="maincontent">

D-4) In the Template Before Footer HTML: window, I made it like this:

<?php endif; ?>

</div>

<!--index.php end-->

<!--include footer-->

<?php get_footer(); ?>

D-5) In the Template Footer Files: window, I made it like this: footer.php

E) Scroll down to the User Email Template: window. Since he uses variables for his stuff.. here is what I used for mine, and it works because I got the email after doing a test sign up.

Username: ##username##

Password: ##password##

You now have the ability to access any of the following locations with your username and password.

The Site Admin

##siteurl##/wp-admin/

The Forums

##siteurl##/forums/

The Codex

http://yourwiki.yourdomain.net

Please note: Of course… change the The Codex and Forums urls to whatever your’s is.. example: ##siteurl##/my-forums-folder-name/

And for Codex/Wiki: http://yourdomain.net/yourwiki or whatever..

Then I click the Update Options button..

F) In my Theme’s CSS File, I added the following CSS Style references:

#login {margin:0 auto 0 auto;width:250px;}

#login ul {margin:0;padding:0;}

#login ul li {display:inline;margin-left:10px;}

Everything seems to be working just fine! I hope this helps others..

http://spencerp.net/wp-login.php

http://spencerp.net/wp-register.php

After logging in, you should be taken to this page then:

http://spencerp.net/where-to/

Which of course.. can still be seen by everyone, either way. (But it’s not really made public either, because I don’t have the page itself, listed in the header nav bar, and sidebar nav section.)

However.. it’s not going to do much good to them, because if they aren’t registered and stuff.. they can’t access my blog’s wp-admin, forums or codex.. lmao!

Anyway, I just did TWO test signups.. and was able to login to my Codex, Forums, and the Blog’s wp-admin control panel.. whee!!

Very nice. Good idea to have everything available in one place

[ear1grey]

Indeed, though I’ve only seen once instance so far where the spammers have bothered to leave a comment. My guess is that it’s too difficult to write a robot that can leave intelligent spam, so they’re hedging their bets and hoping not to be spotted lurking in the profile pages – if you can achieve that on several thousand instances you’ve suddenly got a whole lot of pagerank coming your way.

Perhaps another useful tool would be to list the lurkers (similar to how bozos & blocked users can be listed in the Users admin tab) where a lurker is someone who’s registered but not commented.

[thomasklaiber]

The next thing is, every Username links to the Website, too.

But as i looked quickly throuh the functions I think this is something for a core change. The users website is passed from get_profile_info_keys() in an array to bb_profile_data(). This function generates the data-List and makes the Link clickable .. but there is no point where you can add a Plugin.

The array from get_profile_info_keys() is passed trough a filter, maybe something like a if (in_array(...)) in the filter …?

Just a thought…

[Laset]

firetheweb, that works for cyrillic, i can Add tags BUT i cannot search topics by that tags

Any suggestions???

[spencerp]

You’re welcome Nate. And hopefully soon here.. I’ll have my wiki ready, and going the way I want it lol. Then, once I’m done, or as I go along.. I’ll write up what I did ..

Hopefully someone else in need of same thing, latter down the road.. finds this post useful and I hope it helps them..

spencerp

[thomasklaiber]

It’s a really good idea!! Never thought about it.

Maybe this is something for a plugin?

[spencerp]

Nice! I’ll apply this then, once done eating my burger here.. If I remember right, someone did post about that over in the WP.org mailing list(s) can’t remember which one though.. Or, maybe it was the bbdev list.. I better check ..

But I think Michael Adams seen it, and was going to apply a “Fix” after holidays.. when the next release of bbPress comes out.. (after holidays) I’m assuming.. either way.. thanks for the “fix”..

spencerp

/Here’s the thread I meant to post it in lmao..

[Trent Adams]

I will have a post to devlist, but I am pretty sure that only Micheal changes the core code, but will get around to it after the holidays! I tested them both earlier and they did work for me! It has been 3 weeks since a core change and there is about a dozen or so tickets since then!

Trent

[chrishajer]

Trent, I would PM you but there’s no PM here yet…

Can you check trac tickets 507 and 508? Those appear to be two other inconsistencies I found and reported. Maybe they can be bumped for 0.74 if you find the same issue with your install?

Thanks.

[Nicki Faulk]

“As it is though, I still can’t fathom how much is already available (plugin wise) for bbPress…”

Ditto that. When I first came over here, I honestly wasn’t expecting much considering how new bbPress is. I was pleasantly surprised.

[spencerp]

And I’m trying to get someone to make up a plugin, or what-not for “forum categories” .. lol

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/410?replies=7

Josh said he’ll probably get on “this” then, just with the Holidays here, and his busy life.. there is no rush. I trust his awesome plugin’s and work..

Also, as time goes on, and more plugins start coming around, the DEVS will most likely implement them into the core then.. We just need some patience.. As it is though, I still can’t fathom how much is already available (plugin wise) for bbPress.. geesh!

spencerp

[Nicki Faulk]

There’s a PM plugin available. Check the Plugins tag.

Keep in mind also that bbPress is still in its infantile stages. We all know this and that’s why we’re here — to help improve upon it and watch it grow up into a fuller forum software.

[spencerp]

Nevermind! Here’s what I ended up doing..

1) Edited the MediaWiki:Sidebar by adding in my own custom Register link, pointing to the Blog’s register page.

2) Edited some of the MediaWiki: (Logouttext, Createaccount, some Login”whatever files”, Nologin, Notloggedin, and maybe a few others) files – Removing all the “create account” references. So the “Login / Create Account” link was chopped down to just “Login”.. same goes for the one found on the actual login page.. (Well.. as far as I know I got all them “Create Account” references lmao!

3) Replaced those “create account” words/calls with custom text saying “Please click on the register link in the sidebar. Once you’ve created an account through my blog’s register page, you’ll get an email with the details. Once registered, your username and password will allow you to login on the Codex.”

4) Also, had added that little “hack” to hide the [Edit] link on the pages and stuff, if not logged in.. I had done this before even doing the above.. so.. as far as I know, I’m good to go for the Codex..

I’ll just have customize the email that comes from the blog after they register there, and the same for the forums.. I guess this is all I need, right people? If there’s more.. please tell me.. whee!

spencerp

/Next on the “To-Do” list is implementing my blog’s theme around the Codex.. Wish me luck! …whee!

[mistainu]

my bbpress is integrated with my wordpress. the 2 required plugins, and adding

<require_once('../wp-blog-header.php');

in my config file so i could use my wordpress theme as my bbpress template. ok, so everything was file. now i tested it’s functions.

i tried to make a test topic as sticky. apparently i can’t use sticky as long as the above code (require once etc) was in the config. i removed it and i could do as normal.

so now i ask: i wnat to keep my wordpress theme as the bbpress template, unless i use that line i can’t… that line is not allowing me to sticky/unsticky. anyway this was the error msg i got.

Warning: main(../wp-blog-header.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/gray/domains/unlimitedinfinity.com/public_html/forums/config.php on line 57

Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required '../wp-blog-header.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/gray/domains/unlimitedinfinity.com/public_html/forums/config.php on line 57

Edit: another error, seems i can’t access my ./bb-admin/ when the above integration is active.

[chrishajer]

Trent, I created a my-templates/profile.php and changed line 52 of that file from:

if ( strtotime(get_topic_start_time()) < strtotime(get_topic_time()) )

to this:

if ( get_topic_start_timestamp() < strtotime(get_topic_time()) )

and now it works as expected and returns the correct date for the topic_start_time. I don’t know if that’s the correct way to fix it, but it works over here.

I also edited a couple of places where sentences end with “ago” and made them consistent with a period, or not, for all of them.
