My mistake; you’re absolutely right — it only displays deleted posts.

[brunotorres]

Marky, just after posting here I realized I forgot to convert the bbcodes. I’ll try to make it shortly.

About the announcements and sticky, I’ll give a look too.

But I still don’t have a clue why posts don’t appear on the admin. If you or anyone know why, please let me know.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

I believe there are several plugins for WordPress (and even a sidebar widget) that pull content from RSS feeds.

I’d use the widget since I don’t know the names of the plugins off the top of my head. I’m sure Google does, though

[marky]

OK, I gave the script a shot and it imported everything very nicely!

The only snag is that the bbCodes weren’t stripped or converted in the process, so many of the posts end up looking like gibberish. Also, sticky threads and announcements weren’t converted as such, although that’s less of an issue.

I certainly hope there’s enough demand for this script to justify adding these features. Otherwise, nice job!

[larmir]

Got it!

Didn’t use back ticks – just straight code and it works fine.

Don’t know how I missed this.

[Andrea Rennick]

Nope. Fresh from the download page. I did check db.php and it does have code in there if the 2nb db is declared, it just seems not to catch it.

I’m gonna try it stuffed away on on a live server somewhere. I don’t want to accidentally hose my MU install until I know I can get it working.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Copy bb-templates/topic.php to my-templates/

Find and remove

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

This will likely be removed by default in future versions of bbPress.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Make sure there is no whitespace (spaces, extra lines, tabs, etc.) before the <?php in your plugin nor after the ?>

[marky]

brunotorre, you’re a life saver! I’ll give the script a test shot tonight, and I’ll let you know how it goes.

[mozey]

mdawaffe, thanks for the response, okay,

example.com/someblog

my forum is in example.com/forums

i’m not loading wpmu, i was using at a point of time

MU_BB was true,

include_once(‘wp-config’)

(the syntax was right)

However, i took that off since it was messing up my template, it was assuming that /forums is someone that wanted to register.

should i solve that issue FIRST? if so, any ideas?

however, back to main topic, what should i play with in order to share the sessions?

Umm, sourceforge has stopped the ablity for webservers to send email.

http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=4297&group_id=1

point 12.

Now I’ll have to figure out how to use cron

[Pravin Paratey]

The email functions are in registration-functions.php in bb-includes.

The mail function doesnt do anything on sourceforge. I wrote a sample php file and ran it:

<html>

<body>

<?php

mail( ‘pravinp[at]gmail[dot]com’, “subject”, “message”, ‘From: pravinp[at]gmail[at]com’);

?>

</body>

</html>

And it didnt send me the email.

Anybody know how I can fix this?

[planetphillip]

Works for me too. Thanks to both of you!

NO, wait when I try to open the tags.php I recieve this message:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/username/public_html/forum/my-plugins/latest-topics.php:9) in /home/username/public_html/forum/bb-includes/functions.php on line 1304

Yay, percentages work too! It’s not 8am yet and that’s made my day.

[travelsuperlink]

mdswaffe,

many thanks. you guys did an awesome job. I wish more and more people join the bbpress. :

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

The easy way is to find get_thread( $topic_id, $page ) in /topic.php and change it to get_thread( $topic_id, $page, true ).

The better way is to use a plugin so that you aren’t modifying any core files. (This is untested)

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Reverse Post Order

Plugin URI: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/76

*/

function reverse_post_order() {

global $topic_id, $page, $topic, $bb_current_user;

global $bb_db_override, $posts, $forum, $tags, $user_tags, $other_tags, $list_start;

$bb_db_override = true;

$posts = get_thread( $topic_id, $page );

$forum = get_forum ( $topic->forum_id );

$tags = get_topic_tags ( $topic_id );

if ( $bb_current_user && $tags ) {

$user_tags = get_user_tags ( $topic_id, $bb_current_user->ID );

$other_tags = get_other_tags ( $topic_id, $bb_current_user->ID );

} elseif ( is_array($tags) ) {

$user_tags = false;

$other_tags = get_public_tags( $topic_id );

} else {

$user_tags = false;

$other_tags = false;

}

$list_start = ($page – 1) * bb_get_option(‘page_topics’) + 1;

post_author_cache($posts);

}

add_action( ‘bb_topic.php_pre_db’, ‘reverse_post_order’ );

?>

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Try require_once('/path/to/wp-blog-header.php'); instead of wp-config.php.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

$bb->passcookie = PASS_COOKIE

Might work if you load wp before you load bb.

Is your bbPress URL a sudbirectory of your mu URL? If so, you should be able to use the $bb->wp_home and $bb->wp_siteurl variables.

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

Oops, my fault. Do exactly what you did but put

global $bb;

directly under the function line.

<?php

function front_page_topics() {

global $bb;

$bb->page_topics = 2;

}

add_action( ‘bb_index.php_pre_db’, ‘front_page_topics’ );

?>

[Michael Adams (mdawaffe)]

If you have any blocked users, you should run upgrade_160() found in bb-admin/upgrade.php. Otherwise, you shouldn’t have to worry about anything.

Just overwrite the files and you should be good to go (backup first!)

[Zambu]

OK, I figured it out finally…you can control the color of these background fields on the front page by changing the color code in the style.css file at these lines:

.deleted.alt {

background: #ff9999;

}

Of course! “deleted.alt”…so obvious of a name for this option in the style sheets…why didn’t I think of this 9 hours ago!

[mozey]

i managed to get bb and mu working from mu’s users tables THANK GOD. Now, i need them to have the same sessions,

“name $bb->usercookie USER_COOKIE

name $bb->passcookie PASS_COOKIE

path $bb->cookiepath COOKIEPATH

path $bb->sitecookiepath SITECOOKIEPATH

domain $bb->cookiedomain COOKIE_DOMAIN”

(documentation)

SO, what would the code look like in my config.php?

$bb->passcookie = $wp->{‘PASS_COOKIE’}; ?

..

This is not workig as nice. any clues?

[ear1grey]

Giving someone moderator rights across the whole site seems a bit generous. Is there any way I can restrict Moderator privileges to specific forums?

i.e.

Fred moderates Forum A,

Jim moderates Forum B,

Sheila moderates Forum A and C, etc…

EDIT: Moderator, this is probably better suited to “Requests and Feedback”, but I can’t move it… be my guest if you agree
