From where I’m standing, your opinion seems swayed in our favor already
Anyhow, stay swayable!I of course agree, there is an abundance of fun ideas when threaded comments are added to the mix.
I can run another cool use-case by you: I’ve always had big plans for DJPaul’s Achievements plugin. The one feature keeping me from implementing it in my community site is the lack of a visible in-forum reward, as we rely on BP’s forums much more so than the activity stream. With comments, the Achievements plugin could post awarded achievements as comments to the “instigating” post.
As for nested comments in the average forum, I actually see it as a positive evolution. Yes, the goal is linear conversation, but anyone who’s spent some time on a forum knows that linearity is a fragile thing. Over the years, moderators have been given some good tools to stand their ground in the name of good practice, such as splitting, merging, and deleting of individual posts. I believe (single-level) nested comments are a fine addition to these tools, especially if moderators were given the ability to convert posts into comments, and vice versa.
Lastly, though maybe you’ll think me odd for wanting to make this separation, I for one commonly make two-sided posts: “A personal gesture” + “Down to business”. In the case of this thread, I for one would not have minded entering my first paragraph as a mere comment to your post, and then make the rest of this post the actual on-topic reply. Actually, I think there’s a way of going about that without it seeming weird. I’ll try mock something up.
Edit:
Alright, here’s a mockup of my idea:
Call it like you see it
So… A few thoughts on this as of today. My opinion on this is probably easily swayed, but it’s what I think now so I’m gonna roll with it…
So topics and replies, are already hierarchical to each other; replies are children of their topic. Forums by their nature are meant to be focused topics of discussion. It’s possible that topics can grow very large in size, but the intent is to keep the conversation fairly linear. Any forking/branching/nesting of conversations most likely belongs in a separate topic.
But…
Since we’re using custom post types, we still have the whole comments API just laying around WordPress that we’re not using. If, you /really/ wanted to have threaded discussion, you could add comments to the post_type_supports for replies, and build a theme to make it work. This would allow all kinds of neat extra usages for comments that are semi-conventional to blog posts. Use comments as reply feedback, use them as “Like” comments, use them for hidden moderator notes, etc…
Lots of fun ideas come to mind.
Comments were also the natural choice FOR replies, just like taxonomies were the natural choice for Forums/Categories, but since they all lack revisions, attachments, taxonomies, etc, I opted to use another post type for them and leave comments for plugin authors and developers to play around with.
Have you guys been attempting this with subdomains or just folders on your multi-site installs?
This will be darn handy once we can use it on multi-site
Actually, it’ll be darn handy before then too, but it’ll be super darn handy once we can use it on multi-site.
Hi
I’m a internet newbie, don´t know if its because english isn’t my primary language but what you need can be easily achieved with the example i gave before,
you want useres and admins to contact each other right? everyone that registers is a user, anonymous that don’t register dont get the PM function so its all good
am i missing something? user to admin and vice versa work “in theory”. i’m going to work now but i’ll test this tomorrow after work.
Hi,
I’m having trouble connecting to my database that I have set up. Firstly it looks like the first step of the install process is changing the forum database (causing the DB Error: cannot select’, as in this forum post:
I went ahead and changed the config file manually, but when this happens I get the ‘ERROR: Could not establish a database connection’.
I have a feeling it is to do with leaving the MYSQL hostname as localhost. If so, where should I get the alternate hostname?
Here is the config file:
<?php
/**
* The base configurations of bbPress.
*
* This file has the following configurations: MySQL settings, Table Prefix,
* Secret Keys and bbPress Language. You can get the MySQL settings from your
* web host.
*
* This file is used by the installer during installation.
*
* @package bbPress
*/
// ** MySQL settings – You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for bbPress */
define( ‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘Forum’ );
/** MySQL database username */
define( ‘BBDB_USER’, ‘XXXXXXXXXXXXXX’ );
/** MySQL database password */

define( ‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’ );
/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define( ‘BBDB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’ );

will beta 3 fix things not fixed in svn till version 3327? Thats what im using and its not fixed.
Edit; had another quick try and its working.
heres what i done, i’m using a twenty ten child theme, activated the child theme, copied the contents of the bbp-twentyten folder (not the folder) to the child theme root with the exception of style,css, screenshot.png and functions.php.
at the root of the child theme i created a functions.php file from “scratch” with the following:
<?phpadd_theme_support( 'bbpress' );
?>
and voilá its working, i did this steps so many times in the morning but now its working
Topic: Custom breadcrumb
Hello everybody,
first sorry for my english, i’m a french bbpress user then i don’t speak a very good english.
I’m trying to custimize the breadcrumb on my forum but i don’t succeed what i’m trying to do.
By default, the breadcrumb is like this :
Forum name >> Category name >> Forum name
What i want is to delete the “Category name” from the bbcrumb. Then i went into functions.bb-template.php file but don’t found the codeline i have to edit. I found the bb_get_forum_bread_crumb() function but don’t know how to do.
Does someone can help me ?
In resume, i’m trying to change :
Forum name >> Category name >> Forum name
to :
Forum name >> Forum name
on forum pages.
Last question, how to add “topic name” at the end of the bbcrumb on the topics page ?
Thanks in advance.
This seems to be resolving well here, except for the Widget Logic plugin that doesn’t work with this new beta version
Hello,
I have sorted out my migration from a standalone 1.0 installation in a separate db to a 2.0 plugin installation on my own, and now I would like to restore the functionality of bbpress 1.0 of having a log in/out link and a username for the logged-in user at the top of every forum page. I don’t want this at the top of every page on my site, just on every forum page. Here is the approximate code I would use if I were to add this to a WP header somewhere:
<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { ?>
get_currentuserinfo();
<p>
echo ‘Welcome ‘ . $current_user->user_login . Click here to log out“n”;
</p>
<?php } else { ?>
<p>” title=”Login”>Log in to post if you are registered, or /wp-register.php”>register an account.</p>
<?php } ?>
Can someone help me integrate the same functionality into bbp-common-template.php or wherever it ought to go in order to be shown on every forum page but not on any pages that aren’t part of my forum? I would like it to appear right below the breadcrumbs on every page.
While I’m here, I’d like to strongly recommend building this functionality into the bbpress plugin, since there are probably many people other than me who don’t want to encourage login attempts (or use up primary menu navigation space) for any pages other than their dedicated forums.
Thank you!
