The code he uses calls the WP theme header.php but the WP header is showing null when he is in his forums.

[Jim R]

Now…we can at least state between the require code and the get_header();, it works on an otherwise blank page. So this can’t be a WP template issue. Using just the following:

<?php

require_once('/home/jwrbloom/public_html/wp-load.php');

get_header();

?>

I get this: http://www.hoosierhoopsreport.com/wp-test.php

That works as it should. When I put the code in the bbPress template (the require code in bb-config and the get_header wherever bb_get_header is, it doesn’t work.

[gerikg]

What if I say I want the User Activity & Topics Started to show on the side instead of the profile, would that make a difference?

I saw this in my bbpress header, what does it do?

<?php

$_head_profile_attr = '';

if ( bb_is_profile() ) {

global $self;

if ( !$self ) {

$_head_profile_attr = ' profile="http://www.w3.org/2006/03/hcard"';

}

}

?>

It might be something I need to pull the User Activity & Topics Started???

Thanks for your reply. I copied your code and deleted my own code.

The WP things in my bbPress are still working, but the “next page” problem is there still too.

Anyone a solution for the “next page” problem?

Thanks in advance!!

$limit was passed something which wasn’t numeric because… I guess that’s what do_action() does when it doesn’t have any arguments? Doing a var_dump(), it appears to be an empty string, so I guess it just passed the default value of the argument variable.

I found it because I noticed the SQL query wasn’t valid when it was run in phpMyAdmin and then noticed that there wasn’t anything after LIMIT.

I don’t know if there’s any performance gain, but it’s how bbPress code is written iirc and in the case of calling the user table, it’s essential when you’re working with a WP/bbP integration (as the table prefix is different).

So mostly it allows for the table names to be entirely variable, which is probably better practice in case a plugin changes them.

[Billy Wilcosky]

Thanks guys, I’ll try both of those tonight when I get home, I’m at work right now. It probably is the space. CSS can be sensitive.

I wish I wasn’t so picky, then I wouldn’t even be worrying about this.

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

@chris

Somehow I missed replying sensibly. I just want it to hook with the post_post_form action. Looks like Kawauso got it fixed but I am looking for explainations. Thanks!

@Kawauso

Why the $limit was passed something which wasn’t numeric? and how did you find it? I would like to know your approach.

And I didn’t get the point of using $bbdb over $bb_table_prefix ? Is there any performance gain?

and yes your code for profile link works more efficiently than mine. Thanks!

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

When I tried this (not using a manual call), it seemed that $limit was being passed something, but it wasn’t numeric. So I added in before the global line:

if (!is_numeric($limit))

$limit = 5;

I also changed $query_recent_replies to:

$query_recent_replies = "SELECT * FROM $bbdb->topics JOIN $bbdb->posts ON $bbdb->topics.topic_id = $bbdb->posts.topic_id $where ORDER BY post_time DESC LIMIT $limit";

and first echo inside the foreach to:

echo "n<li>". bb_get_profile_link( array( 'id' => $recent_reply->poster_id, 'text' => get_user_display_name( $recent_reply->poster_id ) ) ) . ' on <a href="' . get_topic_link($recent_reply->topic_id);

but that’s more just my idea of cleaner code

.page-numbers.current – Don’t use a space, it’s not a descendant.

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

span .page-numbers .current should work

[Billy Wilcosky]

That didn’t work for me. I event added !important to it and emptied my cache.

That’s actually one of the things I tried last night. Anyone have any other ideas to make the following bold?

<span class=”page-numbers current”>1</span>

If it helps, .page-numbers {font-weight:bold;}, works! But, it changes all the pagination links bold and not just the current page. So, you would think the .page-numbers .current code would work but it doesn’t. I also tried .page-numbers #current and .page-numbers current

[Process of Illumination]

OMG thank you so much Ashfame!

Will try your code right now and will let you know if i encounter problems.

Thanks thanks thanks!

the Process.

[kirpiit]

Ok, this one works smooth!

Thanks again.

[brad_langdon]

Perfect

Thanks man, saved me a headache!

[johnhiler]

Try this.

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/avatar-upload/page/6/#post-2241

[Olaf Lederer]

it must be

.page-numbers .current {font-weight:bold;}

otherwise “current” becomes and element and not a pseudo class

WordPress sidebar code will not work straight away.

You can find themes that use sidebars here and maybe find something you can copy from:

http://bbshowcase.org/forums/view/available-themes

Or, you can find professional help with programming for bbPress here:

http://bbshowcase.org/forums/topic/bbpress-professionals-advertise-in-this-topic

Or, anyone familiar with modifying WordPress should be able to help as well since they’re very similar.

[Billy Wilcosky]

Where is the pagination code?

This is being very picky, but, I want the current page number to be <b>bold</b>.

Could someone tell me where the code is so I can add bold tags around the current page OR can someone tell me the CSS code that I can add to my style sheet that will make the current page number bold?

Just from viewing the source of one of my view pages I found the following:

<span class=”page-numbers current”>1</span>

So, I tried adding .page-numbers current {font-weight:bold;} to my style sheet, but that doesn’t work.

[johnhiler]

There’s a committee?

[gerikg]

Thank you Sam,

What does it take to be in the committee? I want to get involved but I’m no coder. Just have ideas.

[Sam Bauers]

The plan for a second there was to run the codex from the BuddyPress.org site (which is WPMU). It didn’t pan out for some technical reasons, but the domain is still mapped there.

[Sam Bauers]

Thanks for your gratitude, I have indeed left Automattic. I decided it was time to move on and pursue some of my own ideas and other interests.

I won’t have much time to contribute to bbPress now and I can’t report who is going to be taking over from me or if anyone is even being sought for the role.

It has been great being so involved in this project and I appreciate all the help that people have given in peer support on these forums and with the code itself.

[terryjsmith]

@chrishajer I believe I found originally that including only wp-load.php did not register the actions and filters in WordPress and I wanted to keep those for our specific installation. But generally speaking, it would carry quite a bit less load

@AphelionZ I am very glad you solved the problem, congratulations!

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

<?php bb_profile_link( array( 'id' => get_post_author_id(), 'text' => get_post_author() ) ); ?>

@bbback: you can avoid echoing get_ functions by dropping the get_, there’s always an echo alias function

@kirpi.it: my bad, I left it using an echo function rather than returning the output

[bbhack]

Do this:

<a href="<?php echo esc_attr( get_user_profile_link( get_post_author_id() ) ); ?>"><?php echo get_post_author(); ?></a>
