Unlike WP, topic meta is accessed throught the topic object.

update_topicmeta( 5, 'my_meta', 'yay' );

$topic = get_topic( 5 );

echo $topic->my_meta; // outputs: yay

Um. What? I see this isn’t going to be a fun forum system to customise if you’re not a PHP programmer. I have NO IDEA what the above means. (I dont mean that as a slam, just a declaration that I’m in over my head at this point.)

[Nola1974]

why between code tags? I thought the point of the code tag was that it outputted code instead of performing it?

[wiimanes]

Having the same difficulties. You can check what I mean by registering on my website and trying to log on:

http://gopokewiids.com/boards

I set up an integrated bb and wordpress message board, and the integration is definitely working. Sadly, I can’t log in at all. No idea what’s wrong. I log on as the admin, and it just goes back to the index.php as if I never logged in. If I try logging in with false info, then it says: Login failed, this username does not exist. It’s defintely running some sort of script after I press submit, but it isn’t logging me in

Suggestions? Mdawaffe, you seem to have a good undertanding, being the key master and all

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: bb_current_user() in forums/bb-settings.php on line 146

I got the exact same kind of error yesterday while I was trying to install wordpress 2.0.5 but was able to install 2.0.4 no problem then upgrade to 2.0.5. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Some of your settings aren’t quite right.

$bb->domain = ‘http://domain.com’;

$bb->path = ‘/cms/forums/’;

$bb->wp_prefix = ‘wp_’; // or whatever the prefix is. It should not be true

Try that on, and let us know.

Also, I’m not sure what you mean by the links being broken in the bbpress-integration WordPress plugin. Can you explain it differently?

[meeciteewurkor]

I’m not sure how the plugins work, but this would be a good candidate, so the core code doesn’t have to be hacked.

[meeciteewurkor]

heh.. didn’t notice that. It is exactly the same.

oh well, at least one can place images now. Glad we got this one figured out. If I ever implement bbpress on a wide scale, that will be the first thing users ask me.

[AphelionZ]

Somebody should take the work done here and make it into a plugin, preferably one that will allow the use of img tags between code tags.

You will be a hero.

[AphelionZ]

but that’s exactly what I did but I plugin-ified it instead of just hacking the code…

I just tried what you did and it works! Excellent. There must be something wrong with my plugin approach (aka i don’t fully understand filters).

Great work – my users will be excited.

[meeciteewurkor]

in formatting-functions.php I added this under the function encode_bad:

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?img.*?)>|', '<$1>', $text);

under function bb_allowed_tags() I added this:

'img' => array(

'src' => array(),

'alt' => array(),

'title' => array()),

for an example see this post I made where it succeeded.

http://meeciteewurkor.com/bbpress/topic/7?replies=2#post-21

I added the /bb-images/bbpress.png image in a post. yay!

[meeciteewurkor]

yeah, regex is confusing sometimes. I just bought a book on them off of Amazon. I’ll get back with you in a week or so. jk. I’ll keep fiddling and see what I can turn up, if anything.

[AphelionZ]

function outlet_encode_bad( $text ) {

$text = wp_specialchars($text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?strong)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?em)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?a.*?)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?ol)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?p)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?img.*?)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|
|', '
', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?ul)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?li)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?blockquote.*?)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?code)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace(“|(.*?)|se”, “‘' . encodeit('$1') . '‘”, $text);

return $text;

}

..should work, but doesn’t.

Ok, how bbPress does it is that it takes every < and > and replaces them with the &lt; and &gt; characters.

Then, it goes through the above list (the exceptions) and turns the lt’s and the gt’s back to actual <‘s and >’s. I can’t get it to recognize the img tag though, because regular expressions confuse the hell out of me. If anybody can get it to recognize the img tags, you’d be making a lot of people happy. For now I am going to take a break…

[ear1grey]

I’m writing a plugin and looking for a way to read the bb_topicmeta table without resorting to cranking out SQL. I can find the bb_update_meta method but no matching bb_get_meta.

Is there an obvious other metadata retrieval method or is this one for trac?

[AphelionZ]

Added this to the above function… still nothing

function outlet_encode_bad( $text ) {

$text = wp_specialchars($text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?strong)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?em)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?a.*?)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?ol)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?p)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?img)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|
|', '
', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?ul)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?li)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?blockquote.*?)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?code)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace(“|(.*?)|se”, “‘' . encodeit('$1') . '‘”, $text);

return $text;

}

add_filter( ‘encode_bad’, ‘outlet_encode_bad’, -1, 3);

There’s also the bb_autop function but that unfortunately is beyond me… I can barely understand regex as it is.

Anyone?

[meeciteewurkor]

what about the encode_bad function in the same formatting-functions.php file?

It has the same list of default allowed html tags. I don’t know enough php yet to understand what it does, though?

Maybe the img tag needs to be placed here as well?

function encode_bad( $text ) {

$text = wp_specialchars($text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?strong)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?em)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?a.*?)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?ol)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?p)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|
|', '
', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?ul)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?li)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?blockquote.*?)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace('|<(/?code)>|', '<$1>', $text);

$text = preg_replace(“|(.*?)|se”, “‘' . encodeit('$1') . '‘”, $text);

return $text;

[Shawn Maddock]

Whoops, I should have specified that the code I posted replaced ear1grey’s. If you keep both then there are two filters being added to your “get_topic_posts”, which would cause the -1’s you’ve been seeing. Sorry ’bout that!

[meeciteewurkor]

nevermind, that list is hard-coded into post-form.php. That would have to be changed, too, just to let people know the tag is allowable. If we can get it to work, of course.

[devils_advocate]

HOW do you make the plugins work?

the “display-name.php” file adds a header of broken links and mod info (which I don’t understand) to the beginning of every install page but otherwise appears to not do anything.

and the “bbpress-integration.php” plug-in for WordPress (I’m using 2) adds the same “Trac” information at the top of every loaded WP page…(!!!)

very frustrating…

help?

[AphelionZ]

I just tried plugin-izing that but it didn’t work either… what are we missing?

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Allow <img> tags in posts

Plugin URI: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/149

*/

function outlet_bb_allowed_tags() {

$tags = array(

'a' => array(

'href' => array(),

'title' => array(),

'rel' => array()),

'img' => array(

'src' => array(),

'alt' => array(),

'title' => array()),

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

'br' => array(),

'code' => array(),

'em' => array(),

'strong' => array(),

'ul' => array(),

'ol' => array(),

'li' => array()

);

return apply_filters( 'bb_allowed_tags', $tags );

}

add_filter( 'bb_allowed_tags', 'outlet_bb_allowed_tags', -1, 3);

?>

[meeciteewurkor]

This didn’t work:

'img' => array(

'src' => array(),

'alt' => array(),

'title' => array()),

added that to formatting-function.php in the bb_allowed_tags() function.

Seems like it would have, though?

[meeciteewurkor]

Ok, well that fixed the -1 year “freshness” problem. Now the post times are incorrect by 1hour.

I’m in -5 gmt timezone and my server is in -6gmt timezone.

One issue fixed and another created. I seem to remember having this problem with WordPress a loooooooong time ago. Like pre 1.0 ago. Can’t remember how that was dealt with.

Anyway, I’ll keep tinkering until I figure it out. Thanks for the help, AphelionZ.

[AphelionZ]

Now you guys just need to make a wiki, and a gallery!!!

[peiqinglong]

It was a bit fustrating in the beginning, but I’m finding it kind of fun. It’s a good back-to-basic-code refresher for me. Here is a little modding I’ve been doing: http://dev.abunchofcars.com/forum/ and I like its pretty easy to integrate into WP since its practically built off the same engine.

[Nola1974]

Took me a bit to figure this out… it’s not a true/false configuration.

replace

'$bb->akismet_key = true;'

with

'$bb->akismet_key = "123456789";'

(123456789 being your key)

[Nola1974]

I couldn’t get rid of the -1’s, so I tinkered with it until it was working for me. This is working .73 as well.

<?php

function bb_decrement( $value ) {

return $value-1;

}

add_filter( 'get_topic_posts', 'bb_decrement', 1);

?>

<?php

function bb_decrement_topic( $value ) {

global $forum;

return $value;

}

function bb_decrement_forum( $value ) {

global $forum;

return $value-get_forum_topics();

}

add_filter( 'get_topic_posts', 'bb_decrement_topic', 1);

add_filter( 'get_forum_posts', 'bb_decrement_forum', 1);

?>
