I made a post toolbar, but its not wysiwyg or tinyMCE. Just buttons to add html and shortcode tags.

I installed this theme and its pretty nice. One question I have is I wanted to added a widget to the forum sidebar but it doesn’t show up. Any idea what I need to do to get it to show up?

1. Yes it is possible. Depending upon what you want to display, I would start by looking at the widget code for bbpress to see how they are pulling out the most recent topics and apply that to your theme home page.

2. Not by default but there will be changes on that in the future.

I’ll do my best to try and find some time this weekend to install the plugin and report back what I find. I did read through the code, but have not yet done anything with it.

Sorry, no idea about devs, everyone I know is absolutely slammed right now. Will keep an ear out though.

*I’ve got my hands absolutely full with the new importer and building the supporting site for it. After that, projects are still lined up…

[Gustav820]

Great! Gautam thanks for all help!

[Gautam Gupta]

Sorry for that. Link updated.

[centrius]

Hey everyone

In the coming days/weeks you early-2.0-adopters are going to be the life-support of what is the most passionate community I have the privilege of contributing to. Us bbPress’ers are a tight-knit group.

There will be confusion about versions, questions about migration, converting 1.x based plugins and themes, and the list goes on and on. I can’t do it alone, and if I did you’d wish I hadn’t.

We are going to need some good documentation. Drop a note here if you can help, and draft up some instructions regarding things you’ve already hacked away on. I’ll make a real documentation section and let you all have at it.

Also mention what you think your time commitment can be. Be realistic, and don’t overextend yourself. This is totally casual but if you sign up for something, I’m going to expect that it get done.

Let’s put a volunteer team together to launch this thing

[Gustav820]

What guide? (no link)

[Gautam Gupta]

Thanks for this!

I’d recommend if you upload this on the WordPress Plugin Repo with the bbPress tag.

[Gautam Gupta]

All plugins in the Plugins section on this site are for bbPress 1.1 or below only. For bbPress 2.0+ plugins, please check here (some might not be bbPress plugins).

[Gautam Gupta]

Please enable pretty permalinks on your site by going to Settings -> Permalinks, that would help. To add a forum link in the menu bar, please check this user guide.

[Gautam Gupta]

When you would install bbPress 2.0 plugin on WordPress, go to WordPress Admin Section -> Tools -> Import -> bbPress importer and follow the onscreen steps.

[Gustav820]

Nobody knows?

[Jon Brown]

Most likely you don’t have those metaboxes turned on under Screen Options.

See https://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Screens#Screen_Options

Top Right corner of the menu’s page, click screen options, check Forums/etc then you should see them for easy addition to menus.

[Stephanie Leary]

… I should probably post my filter mini-plugin in case anyone else is testing this:

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: bbPress Registration Redirect

Plugin URI: http://sillybean.net/

Version: 0.2

Author: Stephanie Leary

*/



add_filter( 'bbp_user_register_redirect_to', 'scl_print_bbp_redirect' );

function scl_print_bbp_redirect($url) {

return 'http://forum.sillybean.net/register/confirm/';

}

?>

[Stephanie Leary]

OK, changeset #3450 only partially fixes this problem. Even with a ‘bbp_user_register_redirect_to’ filter, the redirect_to hidden field still gets stomped by the first if() in bbp_redirect_to_field() — line 741.

I tested this on my multisite install. With that first if() commented out, the redirect_to field is set correctly — but even so, I get redirected to the main site’s wp-signup.php.

ETA: OH! I think we’re seeing two different problems here.

On Jared’s single-site install, I suspect what’s happening is that the page containing the registration shortcode just isn’t doing anything with the checkemail query arg. So, it would be fine to have the user redirected back to that page, as long as the query arg generated the proper “check your email” notice.

What I’m seeing on multisite actually looks like this bug in WP itself.

[EddieG]

Thank you for this. I didn’t know I could block by IP at all, any way at all, without a plugin.

Testing “Spam Free WordPress” now. At first glance it is effortless, automatic and accurate. I may soon test it on bbPress.

[Gustav820]

Hi!

I’ve installed the BBpress 2.0 RC3 plugin for WordPress and it works fine. Sorry for a newbie question but how do you add a link to my forum on my homepage menu? I have Twenty Eleven theme and would like a link called “forum”.

Can I also have like mysite.com/FORUM?

Thanks!

[spixy]

So how should my hierarchy looks like, i cannot create a good one…

What I did is:

1. I created a PAGE, and name it as ‘forum’

so the link would be http://mydomain.com/forum

-the content of that page is the shortcode [bbp-forum-index]

2. I created a FORUM named General Discussions

-problem is when i open that forum, shows nothing, just the header

GENERAL DISCUSSIONS

3. I created again a PAGE named general chat and put the shortcode

[bbp-topic-form]

im pretty messed up, can you guide me on creating this forum

i have an idea, but seems i cannot explain and do it

something like

Facebook for Websites: Social Plugins for Your Blog and Business

facebook-social-plugins

140Share

Facebook offers webmasters and bloggers a lot of options for integrating their platform onto websites. Consider the number of users that are logging into Facebook on a daily basis and staying logged in throughout the day while perusing the Internet.

facebook for webistes infographic

It makes sense that website owners would want to take advantage of the power of Facebook on their own sites, especially since Facebook is the most used identity when it comes to people signing into sites, as shown in the infographic above.

The best part is that Facebook offers several social plugins that you can implement onto virtually any website, some with very little coding knowledge required. Let’s look at these plugins, and the reason why you would want to have a few of them on your site.

Like Button

The Like Button is probably the most well known and recognized of the Facebook social plugins. Like buttons can be placed on any page of your website and can be targeted to like the page that the button is on, or a URL that you specify. For example, you can have a Like button on every page of your site that, when clicked, will create a Like to your homepage.

To get the code for the Like Button, simply visit the developer’s page, enter the URL you want visitors to like and then customize the other features such as layout style, showing faces of people who have liked it, width, wording (Like or Recommend), font, and color then get the code.

If you want to incorporate the Like Button on a WordPress theme (say in your single post templates to work with each of your posts), you can use the following code in place of the URL:

<iframe src=”http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=&lt;?php echo rawurlencode(get_permalink()); ?>&layout=button_count&show_faces=false&width=100&action=like&font=verdana&colorscheme=light&height=21″ scrolling=”no” frameborder=”0″ style=”border:none; overflow:hidden; width:100px; height:21px;” allowTransparency=”true”></iframe>

Hi!

I’ve adapted the bbpress 2.0 plugin templates to my own theme…

…and works fine!

Take a look in http://www.vruiz.net/foros

Thanks for this unpayable plugin

[spixy]

if i activate my bbpress plugin beta 3, yes, in admin panel,

im getting the new menu there for adding forum and topics..

also, by defaul, bbpress creates a slug topics, forums, forum, topic etc.

but when you visit that page, it shows nothing but..

archives of “”,

and when i try creating a page and name it forums and add the short codes

its all the same..

what should i do?

[theurbantwist]

I don’t know if whether or not it’d be something as simple as just copying code into my archive-forum files and such.

[zaerl]

Hi there anointed. I assume that you are using bbPress 1.*. Let’s see what we got:

In bbPress the topic permalink is builded against site and not forum.

If I have a topic named ‘foo’ in forum ‘bar’ and then I create another ‘foo’ topic in forum ‘pub’ then the permalink will be automagically named foo-2 by the bb_slug_increment function.

You want:

/forum-name/sub-forum-name/post-name.html

You can’t achieve this behaviour with just an .htaccess tweaking. You need also to intercept the get_topic_link filter and change the link. Maybe also you will need to do something in the bb_repermalink function.

It can be quite challenging.
