Thanks for checking that… so is there a problem with the pagination of Forum ID #1? If you want to poke around, I can create a test login for you. login/pass is test/test

[citizenkeith]

Just noticed… the “latest post” links don’t work via the front page, but they work when you are viewing the threads in a single forum. For example, they don’t work here:

http://www.citizenkeith.com/forums/index.php

But the DO work here:

I have launched an “Area 51” forum to test and display the effects of my plugins. You can see bb-Ads in action here:

http://blog.wittmania.com/bbpress/

Also, I have now tested this plugin with pretty links, and it does work. The only changes to be made in the coding as given in ad1.php is that you have to delete the .php from the strpos check. This will just look for the words in the link instead of the actual .php file names.

Version 1.0

This plugin automatically turns scripture references into links that will take the visitor to BibleGateway.com, where they can view the verse(s). The administrator can set the default version to one of more than a dozen available versions, including ESV, NIV, KJV, NASB, The Message, and so on.

The links are created dynamically each time a topic is loaded, so the actual text of the post is left alone. This is nice because it allows you to disable/delete the plugin without having to go back through and edit your posts to remove the extra markup.

This plugin is ideal for forums that are religious/spiritual in nature, as it will save your users a lot of time from having to hard-code links to passages they reference in their posts.

This plugin is almost entirely based on a similar WordPress plugin that does the same thing to WP posts. You can view the WP plugin here:

http://dev.wp-plugins.org/wiki/Scripturizer

You can read more about the plugin, or download the latest version of bb-Scripture-Links, here:

You can see a working demo here:

Tried adding the TinyMCE to bbpress and it didn’t work. Asked a guy who knows more about this than I do, and he couldn’t get it to work either. Browsing for an answer, its suggested

• a javascript conflict with a plugin
• , or template.

I’m using the latest version of WordPress in case there is a conflict there. (Windows hosting)

[citizenkeith]

did the latest reply thing stop working immediately after recount?

Yes, it was fine until I ran that. It immediately stopped working. Which is strange, because iI had recounted before.

Perhaps get the latest version, see if the problem persists?

I’ll wait until there’s an official release of 1.0. It’s not a huge problem, so I’ll wait. Thanks though!

[fel64]

The topic closed thing comes from the pagecount being too high. I think get_topic_last_post_link() must be screwing up – did the latest reply thing stop working immediately after recount? Not sure what the solution is, sorry. Perhaps get the latest version, see if the problem persists?

I just recounted on my forum (running 1.0-alpha), but it seems to still work.

[fel64]

There is now!

Save this in a file, call it sumting.php, and drop it into your my-plugins folder. Then put <?php feltopicnav(); ?> somewhere in a topic template. Not tested, so please tell me if it works.

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Topic Navs;

Plugin URI:

Description: Put <?php feltopicnav(); ?> in a topic template to show links to the previous and next topics. Optional parameters are $nexttext, $prevtext, $betweentext and $lastpost.

Author: fel64

Version: 0.7

Author URI: http://www.loinhead.net/

*/



function feltopicnav( $nexttext = '', $prevtext = '', $betweentext = ' ', $lastpost = true )

{

global $topic_id;

$nexttopic = $topic_id + 1;

$prevtopic = $topic_id - 1;

if( !$nexttext )

$nexttext = topic_title( $nexttopic );

if( !$prevtext )

$prevtext = topic_title( $prevtopic );

if( $lastpost ) {

$nextlink = topic_last_post_link( $nexttopic );

$prevlink = topic_last_post_link( $prevtopic );

} else {

$nextlink = topic_link( $nexttopic );

$prevlink = topic_link( $prevtopic );

}

echo '<a href="' . $prevlink . '">' . $prevtext . '</a>' . $betweentext . '<a href="' . $nextlink . '">' . $nexttext . '</a>';

}

?>

A few weeks ago, I recounted everything, and suddenly this plugin (in fel64’s post) doesn’t work anymore. You click on the >> to get to the latest post, and it takes you to a page without any posts, and it states that the thread is closed, even though it isn’t closed.

For example:

http://www.citizenkeith.com/forums/topic.php?id=29&page=143&replies=713#post-8940

It should have been something like this:

http://www.citizenkeith.com/forums/topic.php?id=29&page=24&replies=716#post-8943

Replies/Posts are off by 3, and pages are off by 119!!

@ box87, can you give me/sent me what you have changed and where? This error also seems to effect people that use php 5+, so if your changes fixes these errors, I realy would like to have them (mauricederegt[at]gmail.com)

About adding menutabs (not pages); it will be in the next release. You can create new tabs in the admin area and drag&drop them around. Only downside is that the tabs won’t be highlighted when you are on the page where the new tab points too. This has to do with the bb_location and knowing-on-what-page-you-are issue (is_pagename) .

It already is possible to automaticly add a menu tab to your list when activating a plugin that has a page on its own (like the memberlist plugin). But I need to do some more testing for this and documentation of how to do this will proberly be released when bbPress 1.0 (with plugin activation) is released (cause the way this works can be changed)…

Also I am thinking of rewriting this plugin after the bbPress 1.0 release to use jQuery. 1.0 uses this libary, so why not make use of this and reduce the extra files needed to drag&drop the tabs around

Well for now, send me your fix so I can put it in the next release. Big things are ahead!

Can you make sure you can still send email from your server? If you have ssh/command line access, you can try this:

php -r 'mail( 'you@yourdomain.com', "subject: test", "message: test", 'From: you@yourdomain.com');'

If you have FTP access, put this into a file called mailer.php (or whatever.php you want) and then navigate to it with a browser”

<html>

<body>

<?php

mail( 'you@yourdomain.com', "subject: test", "message: test", 'From: you@yourdomain.com');

echo "Mail should have been sent, check your inbox";

?>

</body>

</html>

Once you know if you can send email from your server, you can move forward.

[stuboo]

Hello all,

When I installed bbpress intially, everything worked fine. After about a month of use though, the email message is not being sent during registration. I assume this might be due to a change with my host (dreamhost) but I don’t have any idea where to start looking for the problem.

I also have many wordpress blogs installed across dreamhost and have experienced no such problem on any of them.

Can someone please point me in a direction (to test) that might lead to a solution?

Thanks

Ryan

What I mean is, when I wrap text in backticks, it actually converts it to <pre><code> and removes the contents, replacing it with a random character, like an “n” or whatever.

I want to be able to just use backticks for code, but I can’t. That’s the problem.

Edit: Here’s an example. I created a post that looks like this (swapping a backtick for “[backtick]” so it won’t get eaten:

[backtick]test[backtick]

What it spit out is this (swapping parens for brackets so it wont get eaten):

(pre)(code)s`

Cheers mirfan – your fix worked a treat! (I’ve got an XP install using WAMP as a server – just for testing stuff atm).

[startribe]

Beautiful, it worked, thanks!

Click: (to front) in: [Stick topic (to front)] and not the [Stick topic…] part

[startribe]

Not sure if I was completely clear on this one. If you view the bbPress forum page, then under the latest discussions there are stickies. I am not sure if this a feature unique to the forum located here, but when I turn a topic into a sticky it only sticks inside the forum it is registered, and it doesn’t stick in the latest discussion section (like the stickies on this forum’s latest discussions).

Thanks for the help.

[fel64]

Hello Individual,

are you using the Latest Discussions plugin? There is no simple switch to flick that I know of.

The way to do it I think is to find all stickies – perhaps there’s an API function, perhaps you need a quick database query – output them, count them and output the remaining number of threads the way it’s done now. You could work that into the current plugin. If you don’t want to get your hands dirty, perhaps someone will do it for you.

No problem,

fel

[startribe]

Hey Community,

I created a sticky that works inside a forum, but how do I get it to work in the latest discussions area?

Thanks,

Orion

Hope this is the right place. I just installed the latest svn version on my local pc, and got the forementioned error twice (also with topic_slug field). Running mysql 5.0.

Sorry if this has been dealt with, but I’ve searched the forums for this and haven’t found anything. I’m pretty sure this is not a bozo issue.

Using bbPress 0.8.1 with WordPress 2.1

Just installed not long ago and am testing now…

I am able to add forums with no problem.

But, when I add a new post to a given forum, it appears to save (it does in fact, as I checked the db table). However, it doesn’t show up in the forum post counts on the front page, and unless I navigate back to the form where I added the post, I lose it completely.

I’ve tried subscribing to a new post that I just saved, and I get the message “Something strange happened, please try refreshing”. I do refresh, and the message goes away, but nothing else happens, and the post is still lost in limbo.

Any tags attached to the post do show up correctly –it’s just the post itself that is gone.

Thanks for any help!

When i was using author.php for my wordpress profile i used the following code to show the latest blog posts i had made

<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

I’m running version 8.1 and it isn’t a directory so it looks like this;

I haven’t got that, and nor do you Trent. Incidentally the bb forums feed you linked to is empty but entitled “Comments on: Forums”, tagline “Just another WordPress weblog”.
