I’m currently adding content to my membership page, using the memberlist plugin. I have added a few extra details to the sign up page e.g. About, Skills etc… I had found the following line echo "<a>user_url."">".$member->user_url."</a>"; so modifying this to echo $member->about; It thought it should work but doesn’t, any ideas?

I think you can track this seperataly with two codes.

[johnhiler]

Check out the comments on the plugin… it’s a bit tricky to configure since you have to make sure to create the upload directory about your webroot (for security reasons):

# make a directory /bb-attachments/ ABOVE your webroot ie./home/username/bb-attachments/

# chmod 777 the above /bb-attachments/ directory

It’s definitely worth it though – the security help keeps your site safe.

v1.0.2

Even though by technicality you are on your profile page, when I’m viewing my ‘manage favorites’ page (bb-templates/blah/favorites.php) I’m getting ‘profile-page’ returned by bb_get_location() instead of ‘favorites-page’ as I would expect. This also means bb_is_favorites() is of no use to me for this page.

If that’s not the favorites page, what is?

I’ll check the config file to make sure the code is correct. I have no idea where all the spam tags came from. They’re pretty lame though. whoever it is, they are wasting tons of time!

@Olaf: Your sidebar is going past the end of your main div

[Olaf Lederer]

Hi,

I don’t think that there is a standard function for that, do you tried some custom code?

since version 1.0 it’s possible to have custom functions in the template functions.php file. Just like in wordpress.

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

That code is probably fine, the version number is okay anyway but it’s slightly different to the one above.

There’s an upload plugin for PostImage: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/request-image-upload-with-free-image-hosting#post-56890

That’s the only one I know of

[InvTrdr]

That code above did not work for me chandersbs. The one below did. Is it safe to use the one below?

[InvTrdr]

Thanks. Will the above code posted by chandersbs work in 1.0?

Thanks.

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

That’s in a core file… what have you managed to do in your CSS to make it not go underneath?

Short-term fix:

Put this in your theme’s functions.php

<?php

function add_topic_br_special() { ?>

<br />

<?php }

add_action( 'pre_post_form', 'add_topic_br_special');

?>

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

It depends on your theme design.

In mine, I have four main divs: header, content, sidebar and footer

So on my footer.php, at the top, I put in this: <?php require('/home/domain/www/forums/my-templates/themename/sidebar.php'); ?> and then built the sidebar as I wanted it.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

So it works similar to WP but just that you cannot do it through Editor in WP, rather do it directly in the files on the server, correct?

Correct. There’s no theme editor built in to BB at this time, so you have to edit the template file.

And you can use the same GA code from WP to BB without changing anything, but as it’s a different page, you have to edit the bbPress and WordPress templates separately.

[InvTrdr]

So it works similar to WP but just that you cannot do it through Editor in WP, rather do it directly in the files on the server, correct? If I have GA code on my site already, will it help as the forum is just an extension of the domain? Or not, as it is a different page altogether?

Thanks.

[InvTrdr]

Thanks. Where exactly in the header.php do I add it and what is the code to add to it?

Thanks.

[chrishajer]

Just paste the Analytics code in your template’s footer.php.

[InvTrdr]

Is it possible to add Google Analytics code to a bbPress forum? Did not see Editor under Appearance.

Thank you.

[kirpiit]

Thanks Kawauso, it does the trick!

The Case Is Closed

[Well, not so closed, actually, as long as the basic Kakumei suffers from this (although tiny) css bug. Maybe this should be noticed to the guys who maintain the theme.]

[chandersbs]

Copy and paste this code and save it as allow-images.php

function allow_images_encode_bad( $text ) {

$text = wp_specialchars( $text );

$text = preg_replace(‘|

!in_array(substr($match[3], -4), array(‘.png’, ‘.jpg’, ‘.gif’)) // only match .jpg, .gif, .png

&&

‘.jpeg’ != substr($match[3], -5) // and .jpeg

$text = str_replace($match[0], ”, $text);

return $text;

remove_filter( ‘pre_post’, ‘encode_bad’ );

add_filter( ‘pre_post’, ‘allow_images_encode_bad’, 9 );

add_filter( ‘pre_post’, ‘allow_images’, 52 );

add_filter( ‘bb_allowed_tags’, ‘allow_images_allowed_tags’ );

?>

Upload it to your my-plugins folder, create if it doesn’t exist. And activate it.

[InvTrdr]

The error message was “DB Error: cannot find”. Figured out that for some reason the database name filled in during step1 was not caught by the bbpress-config.php file as you can see in the code above. The BBDB_NAME has been left “bbpress” as in default. Changed it in the file and it worked. Now onto Step2.

Thanks.

[chrishajer]

I just checked out 1.0.2 via svn and I see backpress is included as an external:

Checked out external at revision 191.

It’s actually included in the packaged download here too:

https://bbpress.org/latest.zip

https://bbpress.org/latest.tar.gz

I don’t think using trac to grab the source is the same as actually downloading the package. Maybe that was the problem?

[Mark]

It does.

<?php printf(__('%1$s'), bb_get_profile_link(bb_get_current_user_info( 'name' )));?>

[62gr]

I paste this code

into my-profile-fields.php file

into my-plugins

but its not working !!

this code :

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: My Profile Fields

Description: My profile fields for my lovely forums

Version 1.0

*/

function my_profile_fields( $fields ) {

/* This removes the Occupation profile field: */

unset( $fields );

/* This adds a new optional field called Favourite Band: */

$fields = array(0,’Favourite Band’);

/* This adds a new *required* field called State: */

$fields = array(1,’State’);

/* You must return the array at the end of the function: */

return $fields;

}

add_filter( ‘get_profile_info_keys’, ‘my_profile_fields’ );

?>

[morgan-wick]

I’m trying to install a new bbPress forum at http://forums.morganwick.com. The “wrapper” div is set in style.css (the only file I’ve changed) to have position:static. It appears to be absolutely positioned, and I don’t see anything in either style.css or in the code that appears when I “view source” that would overrule style.css (the only places in style.css where anything is absolutely positioned either have “display” set to “none” or don’t appear on all pages) unless I have to go hunting through JavaScript. Having to deal with absolutely positioned elements is a pain for an amateur developer like me, and I’d much rather have elements appear as part of the normal flow, like I can do in WordPress; what’s the problem here?

UPDATE: I just removed the background image from “wrapper” and added it to “header”, but it doesn’t show up at all. I’m trying to make it look as much like http://www.morganwick.com as possible.

[chandersbs]

I’m sure it has to do with if and else things but how to code it
