couldn’t find the edit button :

I didn’t fix this issue yet but I got a hint.

the CodeIgniter’s input class (automatically loaded) destroys all global variables in the event register_globals is turned on.

hope someone else might find this useful …

Hi,

I’m trying to integrate a bbpress forum into an existing codeigniter application. (which basically just means integrating the login/logout/update/register functions and syncrhonizing the databases).

I managed to do so by loading bbpress (simply including bb-load.php) on top of codeigniter and just calling the usual bb_login(), bb_logout() functions whenever needed.

However, I just realised that loading it that way drastically decrease performances (went from ~200 req/sec to ~10).

I now try to load bbpress just when I need it, but some strange things happend when bb-load.php is included AFTER codeigniter itself.

e.g, if bb-load.php is included anywhere before codeigniter/CodeIgniter.php, it works, if included after, it won’t load.

Basically what happened is that variables instantiated in the included scripts (like bb-load.php, or bb-settings.php for instance), are then ‘lost’ when reused as global variables elsewhere in bbpress files.

(for now the variable that cause me troubles if $bbdb, which is fine while still in settings.php, but is empty in others files/functions …)

I guess it may not only been related to bbpress but that’s the first time I see this … Anyone got this problem before ? Didn’t have much luck with Google …

Thanks in advance,

[Mark]

In the meantime you can pass new configuration settings to bb_topic_admin() to change the way this looks.

Current configuration options default to:

array(

'id' => 0,

'before' => '[',

'after' => ']',

'delete_text' => false,

'undelete_text' => false,

'redirect' => true

);

Change before to ” and after to ‘ – ‘ and instead of the brackets, you just have an extra dash floating around. Or you can edit bb_get_topic_move_dropdown() and just remove $before and $after from $r.

If you don’t have a functions.php in tour theme folder, just create one & add the above code, just make sure to include the opening & closing functions, so it would look like

<?php

function bb_reset_newpostlink() {

global $link, $topic_id;

$link = get_topic_link( $topic_id );

}

add_action( 'bb-post.php', 'bb_reset_newpostlink' );

?>

[johnnydoe]

i’m looking for a way to use the same output like in wp for the comments like:

<?php comments_popup_link('no comments', 'one comment', ' % comments'); ?> instead of <?php forum_topics(); ?> <?php _e('post(s) or comment(s)'); ?> .

so is there a php pendant in bbpress to count comments or posts the wordpress way?

thank’s in advance

[johnnydoe]

i see i see! i have a lot to learn.

ok thank’s kawauso and olaf, it’s been a pleasure… as always

<?php if ( !bb_current_user_can('manage_options') ) : ?>

GOOOOOGLE 

<?php endif; ?>

or

<?php if ( !bb_current_user_can('manage_options') ) { ?>

GOOOOOGLE 

<?php } ?>

bbPress/WordPress have a boolean function for pretty much everything

It’s actually a pretty simple hack, though I caution you that I worked it out in the last five minutes.

First, modify the following three lines of your bbpress .htaccess;

RewriteRule ^forum/([^/]+)/page/([0-9]+)/?$ /bbpress/forum.php?id=$1&page=$2 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^forum/([^/]+)/?$ /bbpress/forum.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

RewriteRule ^forum/?$ /bbpress/ [R=302,L,QSA]

change ^forum/ to whatever you want the permalink to be, such as ^sub/ or ^purplepolkadots/, whatever works for you. Then open functions.bb-template.php and go to line 711 inside function get_forum_link() (line numbers may vary). It should look something like:

$link = bb_get_uri('forum/' . $forum->$column . $page, null, $context);

…and change ‘forum/’ to whatever you put in your .htaccess – this seemed to work for me immediately, however as I mentioned, I haven’t done any thorough testing of it.

#2: Good idea with the nav, resolved this one, thanx! I only need to know where bb_topic_admin(); leads to…

#1: This is not supposed to happen, unless my integration went wrong, but that is a different topic.

Again, thanx for your help guys!

[gerikg]

pixelgirl #1, I wrote a similar question but a user told me; if it’s deep integration then there is no difference between bbpress and wp

I had to just write <a href=" it out without generating it, just plain html. and put the class=”selected” in the BB header. Since the header is not use for anything other than Forum it will always be selected, if that makes sense.

#2, sorry I know it’s <?php bb_topic_admin(); ?> but exactly where it pulls it from beats me.

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

If you’re trying to get the forum list on the front page visible without anything else, just put something like:

<?php if( !isset( $_GET[ 'forumsonly' ] ) ) : ?> after <?php if ( $forums ) : ?> in front-page.php, then before <?php if ( bb_forums() ) : ?> put <?php endif; // forumsonly ?>.

That would allow you to put ?forumsonly in the URL to turn off the extra bits of the front page.

The other option would be to copy index.php into a new file and change the template it loads to something else and take out the parts you don’t want in there, but if bbPress changes anything in index.php in a new version, you’d miss out on the changes.

What if I wanted to only display my Google Analytics code for everyone but me…

I know this is probably simple but I don’t want to mess it up and loose tracking. I need something that says

if <> admin then

display google tracking code

end if

The problem is I am an old ASP guy and trying to learn this php stuff.

Problem 1: Might be a problem with cookies. The members link on the navi appears as selected, although I’m not on the members page, but the forums, which is not selected at all. Here’s a part of my header.php of the bb theme template:

<?php if ( function_exists( 'bp_blogs_install' ) ) { ?>

<li<?php if ( bp_is_page( BP_BLOGS_SLUG ) ) {?> class="selected"<?php } ?>><a href="<?php echo get_option('home') ?>/<?php echo BP_BLOGS_SLUG ?>" title="<?php _e( 'Blogs', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( 'Blogs', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>

<?php } ?>



<li<?php if ( bp_is_page( 'forums' ) ) {?> class="selected"<?php } ?>><a href="/bbpress/" title="Forums">Forums</a></li>'

I used the default template and moved some code around.

Problem 2: I think a pic says more than a 1000 words here: http://yfrog.com/56screen1opj I want to get rid of those “[]” and I have no idea in which file to do that.

As we’re here, one might want to browse this thread as well

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/kin-kakumei-gold-kakumei

There’s a focus on the “look” of the button there, which might well be a good complement…

I would like to code a plugin to prevent double posting in a certain period of time. For example, i’m adding this reply to this topic, and in 5 minutes i could add another. This plugin would take the second reply and append it to the first one, instead of making a new post (if no one else replied in those 5 minutes).

I’d love this plugin very much as well, I’ve seen this in action in vBulletin. It also prevents users for “artificially” increasing their post count.

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

The “Depreciated” error is caused by PHP complaining that the code is using an old-fashioned way of passing variables. The 2nd error is complaining that PHP has just output text when it shouldn’t have done (since it just gave error text).

The short-term fix would be to look in your PHP’s php.ini and check allow_call_time_pass_reference is set to On, but I don’t know why your xampp would’ve shipped with it Off since mine came On or why it’s calling things like that in bbPress. So yep, re-download. That’s not an error caused specifically by a trunk build though

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

Haha or that I work with a server that’s almost completely firewalled in most of the time, makes doing anything that easy impossible

[kirpiit]

I got it!

See here http://www.kirpi.it/rss2html/rss2html.php?XMLFILE=http://www.kirpi.it/r/rss/topics&TEMPLATE=sample-template.html&MAXITEMS=10

You just download a folder [1] into your server and make a call with the proper parameters.

Templates are trivial to edit.

Looks the right thing for dummies like me

So, the raw problem is solved.

Now let’s go bor a better solution, if there is any.

I’ll try your code, kawauso, and let you know.

Ah the plugin is intended for WordPress installs only I’m afraid.

A quick way of doing it:

In your bbPress directory, make a file called javascript.php containing:

<?php



// Taken from index.php

// Load everything up



require('./bb-load.php');



do_action( 'bb_index.php_pre_db' );



$forums = bb_get_forums(); // Comment to hide forums

if ( $topics = get_latest_topics( false, $page ) ) {

bb_cache_last_posts( $topics );

}



bb_load_template( 'html_include.php' );



?>

then in your template directory, make a file called html_include.php containing:

<?php if ( $forums && $topics ) : ?>

<table id="latest_discussions">

<tr>

<th><?php _e('Topic'); ?></th>

<th><?php _e('Posts'); ?></th>

<!-- <th><?php _e('Voices'); ?></th> -->

<th><?php _e('Last Poster'); ?></th>

<th><?php _e('Freshness'); ?></th>

</tr>



<?php foreach ( $topics as $topic ) : ?>

<tr>

<td><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a></td>

<td class="num"><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>

<!-- <td class="num"><?php bb_topic_voices(); ?></td> -->

<td class="num"><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td>

<td class="num"><a href="<?php topic_last_post_link(); ?>" title="<?php topic_time(array('format'=>'datetime')); ?>"><?php topic_time(); ?></a></td>

</tr>

<?php endforeach; // $topics loop ?>

</table>

<?php else : ?>

No discussions.

<?php endif; ?>

and finally, in the page where you want to load the list, put something like:

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>

<script>$.get("javascript.php",  { rand: Math.random() }, function(data){ document.getElementById('latest').innerHTML = data; } );</script>

<div id="latest"></div>

Old-fashioned way of loading the HTML in there and use a local copy of jQuery or whatever library you use, but that’s the general idea really.

html_include.php is just a cut down version of front-page.php so you can edit it the same as any other template. javascript.php doesn’t load in stickies, but that’s just how I felt like doing things, it’s a cut down version of index.php so it’s easy enough to put back.

Even more cut down version of html_include.php (so you really do just get a list):

<?php if ( $forums && $topics ) : ?>

<ul>

<?php foreach ( $topics as $topic ) : ?>

<li><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a></li>

<?php endforeach; // $topics loop ?>

</ul>

<?php else : ?>

No discussions.

<?php endif; ?>

[kirpiit]

Instead, that /rss/topics thing looks promising: if I only could find the source of that page, and throw away most of the code, just to keep the last 5 or so entries with no formatting, that would be more than enough.

There is a rss.php file inside the bbpress folder, but there is too much code and I get lost into it.

[kirpiit]

They could surely be worth inspecting, if I only really knew anything about coding.

So, you mean that if I place this piece of php code [1] into any web page I’ll show a list of entries? I tried but it doesn’t seem to work at all.

So, the idea of just swapping wordpress variables with bbpress ones is not enough.

No. I’m afraid it would be beyond my skills.

lol I guess I read the opening post only 11 month ago

edit: btw I will publish the geshi plugin later on my website

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

Hmm… easy way of doing that

function bb_reset_newpostlink() {

global $link, $topic_id;

$link = get_topic_link( $topic_id );

}

add_action( 'bb-post.php', 'bb_reset_newpostlink' );

Put that in either functions.php or a plugin, it’ll overwrite the redirect link with the general topic one.

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

What bbpress integration plugin are you using? You should be able to integrate 2.8 and 1.0 without any plugins installed in either, just set the bbPress up with the same settings as WordPress under Settings -> WordPress Integration in the bbPress admin.

[Adam Harley (Kawauso)]

There’s the latest topics RSS feed at /rss/topics and the WordPress Latest Post plugin: https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/wordpress-latest-post/, either of those help?
