I think both me and box87 are attempting this with plugins.

It’s certainly not an easy task though

[spencerp]

I was just curious.. would someone be willing to make up a “Private Message” system, just like phpBB has? Or do you think that will be too complicated? Just was wondering..

[spencerp]

Oh! Ok.. awesome! Once my host’s server gets back online again.. I’ll implement it! Thanks again!

spencerp

[spencerp]

Ah dang, mine is with the integration too.. and being that I’m not a coder.. I’ll probably have to wait until something is worked out then..

did you not get the link? are you just pointing to mlist.php?

use the bb_memberlist_link() to get to the page, not just directly.

use it like this:

<a href="<?php bb_memberlist_link(); ?>">Member List</a>

[Trent Adams]

It works, but it does give me an error at the top of the page:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /var/www/forum/my-plugins/bb-memberlist.php on line 54

Ideas?

Trent

[ardentfrost]

Thanks

I think private messages is another big factor keeping people away. I’ve been working on it, but it’s a decent size task. Every new plugin I do, though, teaches me more I need to know about bbpress to get pm’s working. Doing the member list taught me some very important things. Maybe I can get it done in the next week.

[ardentfrost]

Here’s one I hope you all enjoy.

This plugin and helper files allows you to link to a member list page, which by default displays the username, user title, home page, join date (with some easier-to-read formatting), and I left in some commented out code for post count if you have my post count plugin installed (if not, you might want to delete those lines from memberlist.php).

Additionally, you can click the colum title for Username and Join Date and get the list sorted by that column. Furthermore, if you click the same column again, it sorts it by the column in descending order.

Lastly (and the coolest part in my opinion), admins will see an extra part to the table that will allow you to delete users (as many or few at one time as you want). Users without the ability to delete users will not even be able to see the added cells or submit button.

To see the member list in action, visit http://www.rayd.org/forums/ (the link is at the top). You won’t be able to see the cool admin parts of the table, of course

To download the plugin, visit http://faq.rayd.org/memberlist/

Alrighty, here’s the scoop:

I added <?php do_action('extra_profile_info_display', $user); ?> to my profile.php file, right above the second to last line, <?php profile_pages(); ?>.

In my template-functions.php file, I have the following:

function extra_profile_edit() {

//Globals

global $user_id, $bb_current_user,$bbdb;

// Get dA username, if it exists

$da_username = $bbdb->get_var("SELECT meta_value FROM $bbdb->usermeta WHERE meta_key = 'da_username' AND user_id = '$user_id'");

// Get the user's real name, if it exists

$user_realname = $bbdb->get_var("SELECT meta_value FROM $bbdb->usermeta WHERE meta_key = 'user_realname' AND user_id = '$user_id'");

// Input fields that have a default value of the set variable

echo "

<input

name="da_username"

id="da_username"

type="field"

value="$da_username" />

.deviantart.com

<input name="user_realname"

id="user_realname"

type="field"

value="$user_realname"

/>";

}

And now for the real meat of the thing:

function extra_update() {

global $user_id;

bb_update_usermeta($user_id, "da_username", $_POST['da_username']);

bb_update_usermeta($user_id, "user_realname", $_POST['user_realname']);

}

add_action('extra_profile_info', 'extra_profile_edit');

add_action('profile_edited', 'extra_update');

add_action('extra_profile_info_display', 'extra_display');

My apologies for the length of the post…

I think I’ve found a solution, by searching the forums (go figure).

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/313?replies=21#post-1672

I quite like this plugin… I’m going to enable it on my forums.

I should have realized… I’m adding an action, not a filter…

[edit] OK, well I’m one step closer, kind of. I need to make a new row (?) for each new profile field.

[another edit]

I’m closer: here’s the function I need; bb_update_usermeta

[M]

Hey there, I’m trying something out here… I made a plugin called template-functions.php and I’m trying out one thing here.

If I put this line:

add_filter(

'get_profile_info_keys',

'extra_profile_info'

);

function extra_profile_info () {}

my profile info is gone, except for the username field and a password field.

I can only see the password field if I view the source… It’s not visible…

Still working on it…

edit: Oh boy, I guess the function extra_profile_info exists! Still going…

another edit:

Well now check this out:

https://trac.bbpress.org/changeset/327

10/13/05… “Hooks for extra fields”?

This is more like it!

Your site is down

[ardentfrost]

lol, I’m actually working on a PM system as well Post Preview is on my to-do list.

You can actually view what I have done, am doing, and plan to do on my forums. http://www.rayd.org/forums/

Right now I’m putting some finishing touches down on a memberlist plugin with a really cool admin feature I think everyone will enjoy.

As for my avatar plugin, I’d love to incorporate what you’ve done to make it more powerful, or maybe we can make your’s pluggable and we can make them work together to make one good plugin

[M]

Awesome, I’ll give it a go.

Funny you mention your avatar plugin… I saw yours but I wasn’t crazy about the modification of core files, so I wrote my own upload script. It uploads a JPG, GIF, or PNG file under 20kb, with a fixed resolution of 64×64 px. If any of these conditions aren’t met, it spits out an error.

If your username is UserName, then the file is named username-avatar.gif or whatever image extension is.

I have a simple detection script for the image in the file post.php. It works for now, but I’d like something a little better. If you’d like a peek at the code just let me know.

I’m working on a PM system, and a post preview “plugin”… it’s slow going though, as college gets in the way quite a considerable bit.

Thanks,

Mike

If you go to bb-includes/functions.php you’ll see a function called “get_profile_info_keys()”

This function holds the data you want, but you don’t want to adjust that file directly since it’s a core file, however, in the current release of my avatar plug-in, you do have to change that line.

But if you notice, it says return apply_filters( 'get_profile_info_keys', yadda yadda );

Anywhere it says “apply_filters” you can make your own.

So I haven’t done this myself yet, though now that I look closer at it, I think I’m going to rerelease my avatar plugin with this change.

Make a plug-in file in your my-plugins directory and put this in it:

add_filter( 'get_profile_info_keys', array('user_email' => array(1, __('Email')), 'user_url' => array(0, __('Website')), 'from' => array(0, __('Location')), 'occ' => array(0, __('Occupation')), etc....

And just keep adding stuff til you have everything you want. the ‘1’ in the “Email” part means that it’s required during registration. Everything else is 0’s because they are not required fields… you can, of course, change this.

[so1o]

a small mistake.. its bb_get_header()

cheers!

[so1o]

there are two things you have to do..

1. one change the topic tempalte to remove the call to topic_resolved()

   <li id="resolution-flipper"><?php _e('This topic is') ?> <?php topic_resolved(); ?></li>

2. fix get_views() in the functions.php

   to that just write a plugin to remove the unwanted options from the views

   function my_no_support_views($views) {

   return array_diff($views, array('unresolved' => __('Unresolved topics')));

   }

   add_filter('bb_views', 'my_no_support_views');

[ardentfrost]

I thought the secret to making a new page that is included into the bbpress fileset is to add the require_once('./bb-load.php');

However, this must not be the secret because it doesn’t let me do stuff like get_header(). On the other hand, it sees my plugin file and gets the information I want from it.

What am I doing wrong? I have a file dropped into the http root with the require_once and then requiring the work page in my-templates, but nothing inside the my-templates file works (ie. no bbpress functions in the file work).

[so1o]

nothing prevents you from doing that… only thing is tomorrow if you change the template you will have to have this code there too..

if you keep it in a plugin file in the my-plugins dir it will automatically come thru with the new files..

cheers

A clean install of .73 with it’s own mysql NO wordpress integration

After installing everything went fine till after logging in to do anything! The main screen is displaying just fine, but any links clicked after give the cookie issue below… and yes I have looked at the other postings but the all incorporate WP which I’m not. Regardless, I’m not refusing cookies so I’m at a loss as to why it would say this and refuse every other page but the dashboard…

Thank you for your help, the error is displayed below

I would love to see something like sub-forums implemented into bbPress earlier in the “game”. I think that would be so awesome. phpBB hasn’t even gotten to that “point” until phpBB3 beta or whatever.. lol!

I know it might not work, and function extacly like “that”, but.. atleast it’s a start of it..

[topiq]

where do i have to put this code? in the header.php file? and whats the difference between the first post’s code? can you restrict the user group of a forum with this one?!

[ardentfrost]

you can do

echo get_user($topic->topic_last_poster);

EDIT:

Oops, better way

echo $topic->topic_last_poster_name;
