forum_name() will echo the result and get_forum_name will not (so you can use it however you want, or just echo it.) I think all the get_ functions just get return value, not echo it.

[mr_pelle]

Edit profile-edit.php and move the <fieldset> blocks around as you wish. Note that you must move the display conditions too, so actually the first block are lines 13-16, second are lines 18-23, third are lines 25-34.

[chrishajer]

There was an old plugin from _ck_ “Admin can post anything”:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/admin-can-post-anything/

You can try it will bbPages and see if it works. I’ve never used that plugin. I do use the “Admin can post anything” plugin.

[eramar91]

doesn’t work checkbox “remember me” , code:

<label class=”rememberme”>

Запомнить <input name=”remember” type=”checkbox” id=”quick_remember” value=”1″ tabindex=”3″ >

</label>

what’s wrong ?

[mr_pelle]

You may retrieve topic parent forum id using $topic->forum_id and then get its name using get_forum_name( $topic->forum_id ).

@Kevin

Thanks for your reply buddy!

Clears most of what I wanted to ask.

I agree with CK saying that we can achieve a better UI (mini project) similar to the WP so everyone can use it and feel the same.

Regarding replicating actions and filters, that can also be achieved over time if community comes up forward (or just a few real developers start exploiting it to use).

Once my schedule loosens up a bit more, I will take a look at bbPress 0.9 development. And I also agree on your point of not rushing into a fork before 1.1 is out. Also I need some time to get the real fundamentals of how it was build and how everything works under the hood.

But one thing remains unanswered, what all we will need to fork the project.

[pagal]

how? and will this work with bbPages?

[kevinjohngallagher]

Yes

[kevinjohngallagher]

Ash mate, you know how much I like you and your work, but that poll is never going to give even close to an accurate figure. To start with you don’t know why people are voting for each one, or how often, or who’s voting.

I mean, Matt came on here and said that 0.9’s not been looked at in a long time and BAM 1.1 starts to get more votes. Matt forgets to mention, the 1.0 branch has had the same number of releases in the last year as the 0.9 branch: namely 0 !!

How much the 0.9 version has actually gone through testing and how much we can be confident it being secured.

Well it’s had 2 years more testing than 1.0 in the wild, and generally (apologies in advance) by people who are happier coding/debugging/ working without a GUI than the folks using 1.0 branch. Plus, the WP forums were running 0.9 until last August (at least), so it was known to be very secure then.

I know it may contain bugs, any code can but my curiosity lies in the testing & use it has gone through already.

A sh*t load more than 1.0.

Rememebr 1.0 was (another) rewrite decreeed from “above”, and we cancelled all Beta testing, and it took 10 alphas to even get useable (pres Alpha6 isn’t compatible with after-alpha-6), and broke most plugins etc. The process of getting 1.0 out the door also led to some of the real wizards leaving the project behind (see Chip Bennet, Justin Tadlock, JJJ, _ck_ etc), and released it in a week, and we released an update to 0.9 at the same time as 1.0’s last update

In my opinion, as someone who uses both; 1.0 only has 2 things going for it: The Admin section and it has more Actions/Filters.

Replicating actions/filters into 0.9 is easy. As _ck_ said, getting a nice looking UI into 0.9 is a mini project.

==============================================

1.1 has some good work, nae, some great work.

It also has some rusheed work, to get it out the door for testing.

It has at least 1000 lines of changed code last I checked (and that wasn’t today or yesterday) and we still have 10 tickets open – all before we release for Alpha testing, and all before we get a new package of BackPress released (in theory) after WP3.0.1’s release.

If we finished all of those tickets this week, and packaged an Alpha testing release for Monday, there is no way 1.1 will be released before September. Infact, we’re looking at a late-September/October release at a minimum, unless we skip testing and bug fixes (again).

Lets take our time and look at 0.9 objectively when 1.1 is close to coming out. Rushing into forks is just as dangerous as rushing into WP-reliant plugins

Ash mate, you’re a very smart guy. Go grab a busy forum and duplicate it on your machine, and convert to 0.9. You’ll very quickly see some of the small issues with it, but you’ll also be amazed at just how quick and robust it is.

[pagal]

@Ben L. I know you can do anything

Thanks man

[pagal]

is it possible?

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

Its a custom theme buddy and its kinda surprising for me that all you had to comment was that my theme looks like thesis.

[mr_pelle]

Do you want to customize the template for the upload avatar page? Edit the bavatar-profile.php file that comes with the plugin. It has an action inside, if I remember correctly, which hook you can modify.

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

@_ck_

How much the 0.9 version has actually gone through testing and how much we can be confident it being secured.

I know it may contain bugs, any code can but my curiosity lies in the testing & use it has gone through already.

If considered a fork, I think we need a few people on whom the people can count on for security updates.

What do you think?

[Greg]

Matt, we’re at cross purposes. Your previous definition of “core plugin” aside, I still don’t quite understand why it wouldn’t be useful to have a place in the taxonomy for something that…

1. is a plugin

2. is released with core (same release criteria etc.)

Like akismet today. I think there are a ton of advantages, but I’ve mentioned them above and I won’t belabor them. I didn’t suggest that it was necessarily 80% functionality, so maybe it does fit your definition of core plugin to some extent.

I guess “bloat” is a bit pejorative and wasn’t my intention to poke at WordPress. But any large piece of software needs to have a strategy to deal with the inevitable growth of the code base as it evolves.

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

You do deep integration by adding a line in bb-config.php to load wp-load.php or wp-blog-header.php. You can check your config file to see and if you are the one who setup everything, then most probably you don’t have deep integrated setups.

That said, deep integration just makes the work easier. FB connect without it is also possible but it will require someone to code that up.

[nickaster]

Interesting… so assuming my templates were default… where would I look for the code to add this? I can get in there and add it if I knew what it looked like.

[Ben L.]

Search engines generally ignore meta description and keywords because they get abused frequently. However, if you really want them, you can use add_action( 'bb_head', 'my_function_that_outputs_stuff' );.

[pagal]

@Ben L., You are always great .

what about page meta description and keywords?

[Ben L.]

$bb->static_title = 'My Awesome Page'; right before the bb_load_template call.

[Erlend]

The challenge comes from the security model: WP hides a lot of things unless you’re on the backend.

Right on the money. That’s the root of my curiosity exactly.

So I see three possible options:

– With code-wizardry, you achieve what no other plugin author seems to have accomplished until now (bypassing the security model, without compromising WP security of course).

– Altering the way WP ‘guards’ its rich text editor

– Making a separate editor for the forumplugin

Or am I missing something?

It’s not like I really expect a finite answer while bbPress plugin is still in the early design stages, but it looks like this feature presents a proper challenge for the developers, hence my curiosity is peaked.

Maybe a good topic for a weekly meeting a bit further down the road?

Welcome to the bbPress installer

Step 1 – Database configuration

Your settings have been saved to the file bb-config.php

You can now continue to the next step.

It says I can proceed to Step 2 but when I click the Step 2 button it brings me back to Step 1.

Can you tell me what permission I am supposed to have on my site. I read in places I need 777 and them some say 666, so I am not sure. I have set all to 777 and still does not work.

In the error it also states that is cannot access class.bb-install.php on line 1051. I go inot my files on FTP and I cannot even find class.bb-install.php in the includes folder.

Here is what i did from start to finish:

1. downloaded 1.0.2 bbpress install

2. unzipped and copied to my happybod.com/forum directory

3. Create a new database

4. Went to the install of bbpress http://www.happybod.com/happybod_web/forum/bb-admin/install.php

5. entered in the details of my database including hostname

6. then I get the error.

I even tried manaully uploading the bbpress-config.pho file and then running install. It says “ooppps looks like you have already insatlled bbpress” but when I go to http://www.happybod.com/forum it gives error: 500 – Internal server error.

There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.

Any ideas? Thanks so much

Kathryn

[Ivaylo Draganov]

_ck_ I’d love to use that fix but it seems to interfere with “freshly baked cookies” plugin. It spawns several PHP warnings when trying to logout. Something along the lines of:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/public_html/forum/my-plugins/page-links-for-bbpress/page-links.php:74) in /home/public_html/forum/bb-includes/pluggable.php on line 242

[Milan Dinić]

Milan, BBXF is a nice idea but, like BackPress, it’s a bit of a boil-the-ocean approach. From our point of view rather than getting every system in the world to adopt this new format, it’s better to just target importers for specific platforms as the market demands it, which has worked well on the WP side.

Every system in the world doesn’t have to adopt BBXF. Since importers will already exist, why not make importers which will create BBXF if we already have some code and “standard”?

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

Hi,

I did this project a while ago and I thought I would share it with everyone once I am really ready so that it can gain momentum but since now bbPress plugin has started development and we are at the stage of choosing a standalone version (I would prefer 0.9 anyday), I am sharing this site – http://bbninja.com

It hosts 38 themes which I edited manually to remove spam content and were aggregated from various sources. 3-4 more themes were released after I was done with this much of theme work.

Themes Showcase – http://bbninja.com/bbpress-themes/

And a friend of mine made some efforts to document functions of functions.bb-template.php file – http://bbninja.com/documentation/

Now I am looking forward to a bbPress 0.9 fork
