I’m trying to insert the Like button from Facebook into my bbpress-based forum. Therefor i need the exact url of each reply.
is there a code for that? at the moment im using <?php topic_posts_link(); ?> but thats not the best one, cos it generates a link to the topic url, instead to the reply url.
I think it can be done by hacking the template to add
author-author ID
as a class to the DIV and then style as per CSS
Thanks Coffee4cr and kingkong954!
Changing from PHP4 to PHP5 worked for me.
I then deleted these lines from both wp- and bb-config.php files (earlier “fixes”)
define( 'COOKIEHASH', 'dsfasdfasdfasdfas' );
define( 'SITECOOKIEPATH', '/' )
and it still works.
post.php line 11
<a href="<?php post_anchor_link(); ?>">#</a>
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/allow-images/ works in 1.0.2 and in trunk (is a very simple plugin). Your users must use the right syntax of the img tag <img src="http://the-url.com" />.
OK, thanks!
I’ve recently made some code with PHP to try to send mail, and after making the right configuration in php.ini it worked. After that I downloaded bbPress and I thought it would be sufficient to just have the right configuraiton in PHP ini, which is the server for outgoing mail (at my broadband supplier) and things like that…
What are you trying to get a link to? There are topics, then there are posts (replies actually) which are just anchor links in a topic. There’s no such concept as a single post in bbPress that I know of (unlike WordPress where you can display a single post with single.php)
What are you trying to do? Maybe post an example of something here that you’re trying to link to.
OK, created a file called stripslashes.php and uploaded it to the bb-plugins directory. Used the code from above, and I do have the magic quotes thing going…I think I may take that out of my htacess files though…if it works now…
I have bbpress 1.2.0 installed but without htaccess file, but when i create htaccess file with the code below in order to change the default permalink structure , i just can’t access the forums anymore (sitename.com/forums) . i get page not found message !!
Have someone already got this issue ?!! Help plz
Can any one here tell me the code? I know for topic url it is: <?php topic_posts_link(); ?>
what is it for the posts? its usually linked to every post with a #
thanks in advance.
Is there way to use the “bb_tag_heat_map” tag in a way that would not echo the results, but would rather allow me to place them into an array for further processing? Browsing through the code I found “bb_get_tag_heat_map”, which appears to have the option “format” that can be set to “array”, but no matter how much I try, I cannot figure out how to make it work.
Basically, I would like to have my tags listed in an alphabetic index, a bit like in a book. To illustrate, if you scroll down here to the section “News archived by subject”, you see my implementation on the WordPress side. I would now like to do the same here (section “Topic index”).
extract image from post content
like that? the code take image from [img]tag so if you want to take image from <img you can edit the pregmatch
last week i make a simple modification with wp-facebookconnect plugin by adam hump to work in bbpress. so here is the file
http://rapidshare.com/files/379814279/wp-facebookconnect.rar
this plugin is not recomended if you don’t understand php code, because the code from wordpress plugin still there. i have no time to clean it, if i got more time next week maybe i can update the feature to work like the real wp plugin. you can setting your api key and secret key in the admin panel
feature :
– Single-signon with your Facebook account <– fully working but still need some test (tested in 2 online site)
– avatar <– not tested
– Publish comments to the newsfeed <– not yet, maybe next week
A sarcasm, how wonderful.
Email for new posts in WP is different because, drumroll please, a forum and a blog are different things !!! They work differently, both from an end user and an administrator point of view.
Not to mention, and I know this one is hard to accept, but WordPress has been around for 7 years, has had 17 released, has a core development team of over 10 people with 100s of others submitting patches and code snippets per release and recieved $29million of VC funding last year… while bbPress has been around for 3 years, has had 4 releases, has 0 developers and less than a handfull of people submitting patches/code and ofcourse has 0 money.
Really, I’m all for sarcasm to make a point. But try and hold off on it until you can either a) make a good point or b) have joined the website for more than a day.
Oh, and just an FYI, when people like ZAERL who give up their time to help YOU with your question, if you bother to reply (and you should) maybe, just maybe… say THANK YOU. You might have heard of it, its this new fangled thing kids are calling “manners”, hopefully it’ll catch on. Oh no, wait…
why in the world isn’t admin notified for new posts?
Because you can just watch bb-admin/posts.php or subscribe to /rss. An email for every new post is a bad idea.

@josh16 I have tried Vanilla 1.1.10 but unfortunately I find it annoyingly hard to skin. And for some reason I don’t really like their new version 2. 
I think I will try out bbPress and see what some of my users think of it.
Thanks for everyones comments and inputs!
I first found BBpress 3 years ago. Personally I don’t remember finding BBpress or what I used it for, but I know that my account on here is 3 years old. I wonder if I have amnesia 
When I rediscovered BBpress yesterday I was pretty excited because the fact is that there isn’t anything like this on the net. This is the smoothest, lightest, nicest looking forum software out there.
However, (and it’s always the however that gets y0u) BBpress needs a little forum work. I made a pun. Seriously, just trying to download plugins has been a major pain. Half the files either don’t work or they aren’t there. Some have major security flaws.
So I ask you this, “Where are the forum moderators?” Make BBpress a bit more friendly and you’ll not only make it work better, you’ll also grab more interest from people who will make BBpress a phenomenon.

Well you need to load the entire bbPress. If you haven’t done something fancy with the user links I think that you can hardcode the values: forum_url.com/profile/name_of_the_profile
Check the tables of your database. Maybe the bbPress tables are in latin1.
Open up phpmyadmin and make sure that the collation of tables is utf8_unicode_ci.
Woah.. after looking at the code I’m thinking jQuery might be the best solution and simply hide or remove the rows with the class form-field numbers 3,4,5,6.
Ideally though would love to not load it in the php.
You have to edit register.php, changing bb_get_header into your custom header layout (copy header.php content and just remove what you do not need), but regarding form elements I think you should add some kind of label check after line 36 in order not to display some elements… but I’m not completely sure this can be actually done, at least not that easily.
@bobbycode: that happens quite often to me too, and not only with that plugin.
Can you post a link to your registration page? I’ll try to repro the issue… 
This plugin lets users set their own passwords during the registration process:
https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/instant-password
That said, this system doesn’t verify email addresses… I suppose you could commission a separate plugin to do that, if you wanted? This plugin might be worth studying for clues on how to pull email confirmation off.

Good luck!
@gerikg
That would be perfect For my purposes this solution is very fine.
Are you ready up to this point? Would you release it for us?
Thanks!
