One subject per topic, please.

To create a link to the lost password page, just use this URL and put it in your template file wherever you want to see it.

<a href="http://www.example.com/bbpress/bb-login.php">Reset your password</a>

Is it more complicated than that?

[chrishajer]

It looks to me like the link (only) is stored in the variable $src in the file bb-includes/functions.bb-pluggable.php line 928.

$avatar = '<img alt="" src="' . $src . '" class="' . $class . '" style="height:' . $size . 'px; width:' . $size . 'px;" />';

So, being that it’s in functions.bb-pluggable.php, I’d say you could probably come up with a plugin to return $src instead of $avatar, but I am unsure of how to do that right now. It’s available, we just need to figure out how to return it for you.

Alright, now I am having *serious* issues getting Rewrite Rules to work.

I’ve done these dozens of times and they aren’t particular complicated, here is a brief example of what I am trying to do:

RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^example/?$ /forum/bb-plugins/example/example.php [NC,L]

</IfModule>

Accessing ‘http://www.example.com/forum/bb-plugins/example/example.php’ directly works perfectly. Accessing from ‘http://www.example.com/example’ does a redirect to ‘http://www.example.com/forums’.

There are NO other rewrite rules active. I even disabled those from bbpress to try to track down what is happening. But some sort of 302 redirect keeps occurring. Is bbpress triggering this internally somehow?

[yutt]

Okay, I ended up going a totally different route with this, I don’t know that it will work for everyone or if it is “proper”, but it works for me.

my-plugin.php now has:

include_once('my-plugin-core.php');

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

From there I check if the user is authenticated as an admin with:

bb_ssl_redirect();

bb_auth();

After that I just call ‘my-function();’

I will use mod_rewrite to make the URL less ridiculous.

[yutt]

Can plugins have their own standalone pages?

I have a very basic plugin that attempts to do this, but it displays both my output, and then the entire index page below it. I suspect this has something to do with the ‘bb_get_location’ function, but I don’t know how to resolve it.

my-plugin.php

include_once(rtrim(dirname(__FILE__),' /\').'/my-plugin-core.php');

if (isset($_GET['my-plugin'])) {

add_action( 'bb_init', 'display_deals');

}

my-plugin-core.php

echo "Example";

Can someone tell me the proper way to do this? Do I need to link directly into the ‘/bb-plugins/my-plugin/’ directory?

[grassrootspa]

Thanks for your help, Detective. How would I implement your code with:

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

Which is in Forum.php and Front-Page.php

It doesn’t look like bbPress has an extensive library of plugins like Word Press.

bbPress JUST went live with the 1.x version. So yeah, there are few plugins. It’s a baby.

Best is subjective. What do you need out of a forum?

[bikingtoronto]

Thanks for the link batrachoid… I’ll look around on there.

[circulartrend]

Hi there,

I have a request from a user on my forums. I am running word press and bb press together. The user has an old account and would like to merge her newer account with the old account. I have no idea how to do this in phpmyadmin. If someone could possibly give me a detailed way on how to do this, that would be great. I am somewhat a noob to phpmyadmin. I know how to change display name/user names in phpmyadmin, etc but I have not done much else.

Thanks,

Adam

Is there any way to get the image address of the avatar.

What I mean is when I use bb_get_avatar( $user->ID) or post_author_avatar() I get the whole code like <img alt="" src="http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/d415555f00b204cfr535327e?s=80&d=identicon&r=g" class="avatar avatar-80 avatar-noemail" style="height:80px; width:80px;" />

But all I need is the image address like http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/d415555f00b204cfr535327e?s=80&d=identicon&r=g

[djboddington]

wow thats good! Thanks for this

[bikingtoronto]

Can you link to the Avatars plug-in? I think there’s a few of them.

I’m using Avatar Upload, and after some fiddling, it’s working great.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

I’m going to put in a standard disclaimer here: iframes are dangerous.

Example: If someone manages to put in malicious code in a bbPress post and you edit it via the admin side using this plugin, it is possible you could bugger your WP install. Now it’s a slim possibility, but iframes are bad, evil and annoying and should be avoided if possible.

Great idea for a plugin, use it responsibly, folks.

[andywilliams244]

I’m not sure how I’d go about that, could somebody post a step by step tutorial? I’ve never dove this far into bbpress before.

Thanks guys, I’d owe you one

[anandasama]

I still dont know if you people managed to fix this but here is what worked for me after alot of trial and error:

From the first-page:

This code will generate a link to the original author’s profile and that one’s username.

<a href="<?php user_profile_link(($topic->topic_poster)) ?>"><?php topic_author(); ?></a>

And this code will make a link to the last user who posted and that one’s username.

<a href="<?php user_profile_link($topic->topic_last_poster) ?>" class="latest-disc-last-poster"><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></a>

Hope it helps!

Значи, не ми остана много време, но продължавам де … Намерих някои печатни грешки и неща, които ми се струва, че трябва да са малко по иначе.

секудни – секунди

пълен препратка – пълна препратка

Ако позволиш да предложа следните промени

месеци – месеца

лепкава – залепена,закачена

А следното общо предложение за превод е по-скоро въпрос на вкус (става и така и иначе) и лек келешлък от моя страна:

“Your attempt to … has failed.” – “… пропадна”

Продължавам да ровя. Още веднъж – мерси за труда.

[Detective]

function gs_get_topic_last_poster_profile_link() {

global $topic;

if ($topic)

return sprintf('<a href="%s">%s</a>', get_user_profile_link($topic->topic_last_poster), get_topic_last_poster($topic->topic_id));

return false;

}

[Ryan Hellyer]

Thanks. I was considering making this exact plugin myself. Glad to see I don’t need to now

[kevmartin]

I found some older posts about similar problems to this, but nothign that really helped, plus they were all for the 0.x versions and I am using 1.x which I am guessing may be different.

I have combined bbpress and wordpress databases (WP 2. and all members have been set to inactive status. But I can’t find anything in Mysql to cause this, so can’t globally change them all to member status. They all seem to have the same bb_capabilities value as the couple of members who I have manually made to ‘member’ status, so that doesn’t help.

And I have thousands of members so manually changing them all through the admin interface seems to be a nightmare.

Can someone tell me what database fields to change to make a member to be a ‘member’ status please?

Thanks.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Well iframes are, by their very nature, evil I’ve never used that admin plugin, but I also don’t do a whole lot of embedding of Google Maps.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

The plugin doesn’t add define('WP_AUTH_COOKIE_VERSION', 1); to your bb-config.php file. It’s very easy to miss that

[rtmsf]

Total newbie here, but I’m a blogger using WordPress 2.8.x who is thinking of adding a discussion forum to my site.

I am NOT a coder whatsoever, so please keep that in mind when answering, although I do have a friend who is one but I would need to be conscientous about using his time.

My question is whether bbPress 1.0 will easily integrate with WP 2.8.x as I have it currently configured. Obviously I’d want it to look similar to my site and have all the standard forum bells/whistles.

If not, does anyone have any other suggestions? I just began researching forums today. I’ve come across IPB and phpBB as other options, but again, I have no idea how easy it would be to integrate those.

Any help you can give would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks.

Hi !

First, I’m verry sorry for my english, but I’m a french user of bbpress

So.

I have a wordpress website, and I delete the username restrictions ( no : @ ect on the username ).

But, when a user who has a username with special characters ( like : ) tries to login on bbpress, bbpress says that the user doesn’t exist.

How to delete this restriction and resolve this problem ?

Thanks !

Не държа – пропуснал съм няколко низа, в които го има, защото съм търсил за “впис”, а то имало и “впиш” тук-таме

Ще го оправя при следващото качване, когато трябва да завърша и на 100% превода.

Аз го изпробвах веднъж от край до край, ама със сигурност има разни дребни неща

[Tommie Hansen]

@Göran: It’s “great” that you have the same problem. Then it probably isn’t some server config hidden away somewhere and the problem will probably be solved pretty soon.

Edit: Hm.. when i try to edit the languagefile with Poedit and choose to save it i get 3 fatal errors;

23:04:20: F:Skrivbordetsv_SE.po:191: message catalog has plural form translations...

Maybe it’s related?

Update 2:

Tried a Bulgarian translation and it did translate time. It must be something with 1.0+ that isn’t in 0.9 language wise.
