“I download the latest update of the recaptchalib.php from recaptcha.net …..”

[gerikg]

@cNc What specifically did not work?

That thread you refer to is a mess. The WP Theme and the bbP Theme you sent me does NOT pull the style.css in the bbP theme folder at all. You might call the global variables but never this line <link rel=”stylesheet” href=”<?php bb_stylesheet_uri(); ?>” type=”text/css” />

If you did pull the style.css, it would look like this:

Notice the Green and white background and other changes.

But you don’t pull the style.css from the bbP theme that is why it looks like this:

@mr_pelle I couldn’t get it to work on the test site, email me?

[Process of Illumination]

I am VERY interested, and ready to test it.

nebbia_in_casa[]yahoo.it

Thank you!!!

the Process

[mr_pelle]

@cNc: well, I believe my plugin actually is pretty easy to use: you just have to make it able to write on your config file and then activate it. I don’t know how it could be more simple!

Regarding making it better, sure I will, because it is going to be used in the forum of the company I’m currently having internship in!

It would be just great to test it in different bbPress installation, that’s why I uploaded it in the repository: I’m waiting for your feedbacks!

will i get all these features via plugins , with 0.9 ?

[jakshi]

O, I did integration with lastest releases wordpress (2.9.2) and bbpres (1.0.2), I just guess that long chain of previous upgrades can influence on bbpress integration with wordpress (may be database upgrades have some inaccuracy etc.)

[Kevin Muldoon]

Yes it may have been a little different if you did the integration with older releases. The best thing to do is to upgrade WordPress to the latest version, then bbPress, and then do the integration. Rather than integrate the scripts and then upgrade them.

[Ivaylo Draganov]

I’d also like to keep 0.9 for the plugins. So far I’ve had it working fine integrated with a WP 2.9.2 but I wan’t to have WP 3.0. Unfortunately on my test install I can’t get the cookies to sync.

Anyone had any experience with WP 3.0 beta and bbPress 0.9.6?

[mr_pelle]

@cNc: the best thing would be to test the forum out of a WordPress page, so there would be no header/footer problems.

[kevinjohngallagher]

It is possible, but honestly, its probably not worth the hassle.

You either connect to the WP database yourself to test (no integration required), but that can be a bit hit and miss – especially with child themes etc.

Or you use deep integration to test for the current theme. Which is simple as long as you have deep integration working (which in itself is very hit and miss).

Bluntly, unless you had a very good reason to do this (and you might, you’ve been v helpful with bbPress recently mate) I’d not take on the challenge. But if you want pointers and some code, lets start a new thread

[chrishajer]

No, there’s no problem with 5.2.9. In the very latest PHP 5.3.x on Windows, you will get additional warnings displayed, but that’s not an issue for you since you’re using Linux.

[evilgeek23]

btw , i want these features …

what version should i go with ?

[Xevo]

Awesome just what I need, have my bbpress integrated into wordpress + buddypress, so would like to test it for you. Could you send it to me?

[lwoods]

I have installed bbpress and changed all of the links, etc. in the bbpress admin. I added “bbPress Forum List” and “bbPress latest topics” to my widgets BUT when I drag either the bbPress List or the bbPress Latest widgets to the sidebar, they show on the sidebar until view the site. Then (1) the forums/topics do not show up on the site and (2) when I go back to the Widgets page the bbPress widgets that I had previously drug onto the sidebar are gone! IOW, they don’t “stick” to the sidebar.

??????????????

TIA

A sandbox is a local test platform that is private and have no external access. For example I use xampp for testing.

[master5o1]

get_latest_topics (line 61)

void get_latest_topics ([ $args = null])

$args

So…what is $args?

[gerikg]

Thank zaerl, I’m definitely willing to test it out. I don’t know what sandbox is though.

Hi there,

I have written a plugin that is a rework of _ck_ “Hidden Forums”. The features:

1) Forums/Topics can be hidden for a list of users and/or for all those users that have a particular role.

For example you can hide a staff private forum to all users except administrators or a sticky topic for all guests.

2) Forums/Topics can be locked for a list of users and/or for all those users that have a particular role. A locked forum doesn’t accept new topics. A locked topic doesn’t accept new posts/tags.

It is different from a “closed” topic which is locked for everyone. You can use this feature for a news list post.

3) You can specify super users and super roles that aren’t affected by previous rules.

A good choice is admin and administrators respectively.

4) You can specify custom prefixes for administrators if the forum/topic is hidden/locked.

It is useful to keep track of hidden posts.

5) You can specify replacement strings for the forms that aren’t shown on locked topics/forums.

Something like “sorry but you can’t write new topics”.

6) A fancy admin panel is included.

In the panel you have a list of all forums/topics that are affected by the plugin.

Actually I don’t think that my plugin is ready for a real site (but despite this I use it in a real site). I’m testing it in a sandbox but I need to cover cases in which there are thousand of posts.

The question is: are you interested on testing my work in a sandbox (if you have one)? If the answer is “yes” I can upload the beta on the SVN otherwise I will test it by myself a little more.

[zaerl]

Try:

if ( $topics = get_latest_topics('exclude=8,7', $page) )

but I’m not sure that this will function.

[master5o1]

on index.php get_latest_topics(‘exclude=id_of_the_controversial_forum’);

Ok, so I changed the line to be this:

if ( $topics = get_latest_topics(‘exclude=8’, $page) ) {

How do I make it exclude more than one forum?

Say, don’t want forum game threads showing up, so I’d block 7 also…

Hi gerikg,

I will test it tomorrow on my new server (playground for bbPress, Plugins, Themes) …

Okay here is the update:

I created discussion.php and put it in root. In the file I put…

<?php



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



bb_repermalink();



$bb_db_override = false;

do_action( 'bb_index.php_pre_db' );



if ( isset($_GET['new']) && '1' == $_GET['new'] ) :

$forums = false;

elseif ( !$bb_db_override ) :

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

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

bb_cache_last_posts( $topics );

}

if ( $super_stickies = get_sticky_topics() ) {

bb_cache_last_posts( $super_stickies );

}

endif;



bb_load_template( 'discussion.php', array('bb_db_override', 'super_stickies') );



?>

It’s the same as index.php except for the last line I put discussion.php

Then I created the template file discussion.php. I put in the file:

<?php bb_get_header(); ?>

<?php if ( $forums ) : ?>



<div id="discussions">

<?php if ( $topics || $super_stickies ) : ?>



<h2><?php _e('Latest Discussions'); ?></h2>



<table id="latest">

<tr>

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

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

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

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

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

</tr>



<?php if ( $super_stickies ) : foreach ( $super_stickies as $topic ) : ?>

<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_topic_labels(); ?> <big><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a></big><?php topic_page_links(); ?></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(); ?>"><?php topic_time(); ?></a></td>

</tr>

<?php endforeach; endif; // $super_stickies ?>



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

<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>

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

</tr>

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

</table>

<?php bb_latest_topics_pages( array( 'before' => '<div class="nav">', 'after' => '</div>' ) ); ?>

<?php endif; // $topics or $super_stickies ?>



</div>



<?php else : // $forums ?>



<div class="bbcrumb"><a href="<?php bb_uri(); ?>"><?php bb_option('name'); ?></a> &raquo; <?php _e('Add New Topic'); ?></div>



<?php post_form(); endif; // $forums ?>



<?php bb_get_footer(); ?>

Now bb_new_topic_link() & topic_class() for sticky does not work.

[gerikg]

Any way to do it via plugin folder, functions.php, or theme folder without putting the file in the root? If bbpress upgrades (don’t laugh too hard) I will forget about it.

[derekboughton]

Hi Chris

It would be the latest version of bbpres – I downloaded 1 April (note that there seems to be nothing in the download that tells you what version you have – this should be remedied. In fact, I cannot find any ‘Read Me’ file either).

I FTPed the files. Ansers to your other questions are –

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Tikanga

Server version: Apache/2.2.11 (Unix)

However, the php version is PHP 5.2.9 (cli) (built: Jun 21 2009 – is this a problem that it is not 5.3.x?

Maybe I should just re-download and re-install?

Look forward to your advice.

Regards

Derek

Hi gerikg,

this post could help you:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/create-a-new-custom-page-like-wordpress

1. Make a custom page

create a page discussion.php in the root forum folder

add require_once(‘./bb-load.php’); on the top of the page. and write whatever code you want in the page.. that should create a static page with bbpress functions..

2. Put in the code for the Latest discussions from the main page (?)

or

3. Make your own sql query – https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/create-a-new-custom-page-like-wordpress
