so i guess i answered my own question… apparently you have to use the unstable “alpha” version of bbpress with the latest version of wordpress:

Where do you see “Hot Topics”? I see Hot Tags and Latest Discussions. Which one do you want to hide?

Yes, it’s possible. You need to find the section in your template that displays them, then just remove that section. For Latest Discussions, it’s in the template file front-page.php. Removing that whole section won’t hurt anything.

If you remove Hot Tags, you will have a big white space over there. After removing that from the template file, you might want to adjust the CSS to make the other part of the page wider so it uses the space where the tags used to be.

Basically, it’s all done in your template files. If you’re using the stock template, you should make a copy of that, then make your modifications there.

Hi

This may sound like an odd thing to do, but I’m intending to adapt bbpress to enable members to self-register and upload articles for review, and only Admins see these posts. (Therefore, _ck_’s Hidden Forum and Attachments plugins are great, as are the Instant_Password & Human_Test).

Though to stream-line this further: when a person registers, they post/upload there article in an a Submissions forum, but I don’t want anyone else (apart from admins) to see this type of post.

Could the bozo setting be used? That is, when a person registers, there status is by default bozo, therefore no other registered users can see this post.

Can this work, and how to default a registered user as bozo?

thanks

Using the method above, a new user registering in WordPress is given the proper role/capability in bbPress. So far this appears to be the best integration yet. I will of course do more testing, but so far so good!

Note: This also proves compatible with the WordPress “Register Plus” plugin.

[John James Jacoby]

As of today, Alpha6 is still not in the download link.

This method above is what I used to upgrade to alpha6. Have not tested new users yet however.

Good call that – validating the CSS seems to have let me do what I wanted. Thanks!

Hey,

Thanks for the Reply…

I guess i may have to wait, but in the mean time, Is there ay pages available to see existing HOOKS on bbpress 0.9+. I guess it may help with testing randomly. who knows, I may get lucky

[Anonymous User 1502623]

Not yet – that discussions2 div class was something I made in an attempt to change the look of the links that the latest discussion plugin displays. I’ve decided to have a go at validating these errors before I attempt anything else.

[chrishajer]

Did you resolve it? It’s in your WordPress theme CSS.

[Anonymous User 1502623]

Yeah I keep meaning to look at them. I just assumed that because I’m using bbpress as the forum on my site, with the bbpress latest discussions plugin, it would’ve had something to do with bbpress. Oh well.

[chrishajer]

You mean the “Community” section on your WordPress site?

You need to change your .discussions2 style in http://www.audioscribbler.co.uk/wp-content/themes/revolution_magazine-40/style.css:

.discussions2 {

font-weight: none;

}

There’s no such font-weight. You want:

font-weight: normal;

It pays to validate your CSS:

http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css21&warning=0&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.audioscribbler.co.uk%2F

You’ve made the same error in other places as well.

Also, this has nothing to do with bbPress really, it’s more of a Revolution Theme or WordPress question.

[Anonymous User 1502623]

hi guys, site is http://www.audioscribbler.co.uk

Basically, I’ve got the latest discussions plugin active in the sidebar, but I can’t find the necessary code to edit to customise it. I’ve create a custom DIV class (this managed to change the line-height) but I can’t get rid of the bold properties, I can’t change the font – I’ve looked on the widgets.php page and can’t find it, and editing the plugin itself doesn’t seem to work. Anyone got any ideas? thanks

my site is bdennstudios.com/forum and i used bbpress-0.9.0.3 which i think is the latest version.

[chrishajer]

In general I try to keep up with WordPress releases as well. The upgrade from 2.5.1 to 2.6 included these bug fixes:

https://trac.wordpress.org/query?status=closed&milestone=2.6

In 2.5.1 the AUTH keys thing was really sorted out, so they changed that in 2.6 and that’s the main reason 2.6 is not compatible with the 0.9.* branch of bbPress.

If you don’t require integrated logins between the forum and the blog, then you don’t have to upgrade your bbPress to use the latest WordPress. If you do need integrated logins, then you probably need to wait for the 1.0 branch of bbPress to upgrade WordPress to the latest.

Alpha-6 came out a couple days ago, so really no one knows until we all start testing our plugins.

[rjeevan]

Hello whoever you are…

I already begin playing around with alpha version of bbPress for some time now… and trying to put together some plug-in’s to make it work properly…

There seems to be quit few Plug-in’s working with the Alpha version already… Now: i was looking for a Moderation Plug-in… There is only Quit few available and the one called BB MODERATION HOLD seems to be working fine, excerpt that It doesn’t Display the Post back to User or any other message to confirm the Post has been Taken into account and awaits moderation… So I was trying to append and make it display message on POST and Also, Show the Post BACK to user (and admins / Moderators) in LISTING with others with simple mark of awaits moderation.

There is not a Clear documentation available like wordpress for available Filters and Action…

For now, I want a Filter to Append the Query when it’s Querying For the Topics in Forum, Latest Topics, Sticky Topics and each so I may Append the Where cause to List the Awaiting moderation Post to Owner (User) and Moderators / Admins.

It would be great if anyone may give me a List of WORKING filters available to use i Current TRUNK version (Alpha 6)…

original Plug-in: http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-moderation-hold/

Thanks

This will never happen because it’s physically impossible as the code is designed.

Ok then the plugin will have to put wp inside bbpress but I still think that it will be a bbpress plugin.

I even could think in another solution; turning wp comment system into a forum. You only had to allow all members to post in the wp blog, make a custom category for them and a custom template for that category. There would be no front-page though.

BTW, _ck_, could you please tell us how did you add pagination to front-page latest posts in your bbpress showcase?

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

That’s what I have too. That’s really wild.

Do you have access to your SQL database? If so, check the bb_topics table in that db and check what it says for the ‘topic_poster_name’ column. The default for that on my table is ‘Anonymous’ so it’s like it’s not writing to that field. Which would mean even if you flipped the bit to the old theme, the database still has it wrong.

So, try making a test post while using the default theme?

[ganzua]

I did a second test using my live installation and it worked. A new user registered through wp and after login he appears as member in the bbpress control panel.

However, since 1.05a all new posts appears as started by “anonymous” user. I do know what to check to correct this behavior.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Just tested. Made an ID on bbpress and it is magically set up as a Subscriber on WP!

Hot digity!

We’re Not Worthy!

[ganzua]

I tested 1.06a integration. I created a new user through wordpress and he can post in bbpress.

Let’s see if anybody can confirm this.

[Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)]

Perhaps the problem is the lack of a codex where you can find out how to add things-> do you want email notification? add this plugin.

You know, that would be nice. If we could all (or maybe some more of us testers) could have codex access. The WP codex actually is editable by anyone. If BB’s was as well, we could all start helping improve documentation.

_ck_ said:

Showing a gravatar for any email address is as simple as:

<img src=”<?php echo “http://www.gravatar.com/avatar.php?gravatar_id=&#8221;.md5($user->user_email); ?>” >

The mysql code for the email of the last poster is going to need a left join of the users table against the post table and more than I am willing to do right now. I suppose I could be lazy and use get_latest_posts(1, 1) to fetch the entire info the last post and grab the email address from there.

does anyone knows?, please.

Very customized theme:

http://vwnettet.dk/ (Danish site for Volkswagen enthusiasts)

I’m not finished yet, using a few own developed plugins to glue it all together and doing the inline pictures… Everything on the site is custom developed plugins, or done in the theme… Nothing changed in the core, which was my main goal… So I am able to keep updating from the development here…

Having changed to bbPress and been live for about 10 days it’s been very good, and after the performance fix for latest topics, it been running very smooth…
