I’m basically wanting to know when someone changes the name/title of a topic. Which seems very simple to me (in theory).

do_action( 'bb_update_topic', $topic_id ); actually is fired after all the db stuff and not before. Given the code of bb_insert_topic we have:

db update

bb_update_topic

bb_insert_topic

in that order. If you intercept bb_update_topic the db must be already updated. At least if there isn’t something evil inside wp_cache_*

If you want something that works before the database is updated. See this:

add_filter('pre_topic_title', 'foo', 10, 2);



function foo($topic_title, $topic_id)

{

global $bb_post;



if($bb_post) echo "You changed me. How dare you.";



return $topic_title;

}

but keep in mind that I’m not proud of this code nor I have run it. What actions do you want to take when a topic is renamed? You want to filter away the new title, changing the slug or what?

Sorry about that Trent, I had only posted the theme as you left it.

I’ve now updated it with your newer copy so you don’t get hit with the hotlink.

Plugins directory not updating: Fixed.

Seems it’s not retroactive… I mean, Zaerl’s last plugins are now listed correctly, but all other plugins did not get updated (yet): it looks like my last plugins update was a month ago!

Plugins section is finally up to date!!

[Michel – xiligroup dev]

22 hours after, the bbPress repository server is not updated. The webside is not conform to the svn side.

Users are not informed as in WP plugins repository of update of bbPress plugins…

What happen ?

Best regards

There is a plugin but it needs to be updated called Forums Moderators (1.0)

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/forum-moderators/

[dd_massacre]

Hi everyone.

1) I installed “Forum Last Poster” in order to display additional information on my front page. In the forum section, I was able to display a link to the last updated topic in each forum, but the whole link is displayed. Does anyone know how to truncate the link to show only the post name instead of the entire link?

Here’s my code thus far:

<?php if ( bb_forums() ) : ?>

<h2><?php _e(‘Forums’); ?></h2>

<table id=”forumlist” cellspacing=”0″ cellspacing=”0″>

<tr>

<th><?php _e(‘Main Theme’); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Posts’); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Topics’); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Last Topic’); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Last Poster’); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Freshness’); ?></th>

</tr>

<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?>

<?php if (bb_get_forum_is_category()) : ?>

<tr<?php bb_forum_class(‘bb-category’); ?>>

<td colspan=”3″><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘<div class=”nest”>’ ); ?>“><?php forum_name(); ?><?php forum_description( array( ‘before’ => ‘<small> – ‘, ‘after’ => ‘</small>’ ) ); ?><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘</div>’ ); ?></td>

</tr>

<?php continue; endif; ?>

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

<td><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘<div class=”nest”>’ ); ?>“><?php forum_name(); ?><?php forum_description( array( ‘before’ => ‘<small> – ‘, ‘after’ => ‘</small>’ ) ); ?><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘</div>’ ); ?></td>

<td class=”num”><?php forum_topics(); ?></td>

<td class=”num”><?php forum_posts(); ?></td>

<td><?php bb_topic_labels(); ?> <big>“><?php forum_last_post_link(); ?></big><?php topic_page_links(); ?></td>

<td class=”num”><?php forum_last_poster(); ?></td>

<td class=”num”><?php forum_time(); ?></td>

</tr>

<?php endwhile; ?>

</table>

<?php endif; // bb_forums() ?>

2) I’m using the “Bavatars” plug-in, but I need to be able to style the “avatar” section in the members page in order for it to be aesthetically pleasing and for it to function correctly. I believe that the HTML on this page is outputting from the “avatars-profile.php” file, however whenever I try to div it off like I did on every other page, I get an error and the page won’t load.

Here’s the code:

bb_get_header();

****Not in code <div id=”Whatever??”>

if ( $message )

echo ‘<div class=”notice”><p>’ . $message . ‘</p></div>’;

echo bb_get_avatar( $user_id, 100 );

?>

<form method=”post” action=”<?php profile_tab_link( $user_id, ‘avatar’ ); ?>” enctype=”multipart/form-data”>

<input type=”file” name=”bavatar” id=”bavatar” />

<input type=”submit” value=”Upload new avatar »” />

</form>

<form method=”post” action=”<?php profile_tab_link( $user_id, ‘avatar’ ); ?>”>

<?php bb_nonce_field( ‘bavatar_delete-‘ . $user_id ); ?>

<input type=”submit” id=”delete” class=”delete” name=”delete” value=”Delete” />

</form>

***********Not in code </div???>

The styling attributes that the “avatar” page needs are:

width: 890px;

padding: 30px;

margin-top: -30px;

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Oh, my page is http://www.myfinalheaven.org/forum.

That’s normally the job of a plugin, but this one is not working. You can try contacting the author of that plugin to see if it can be updated.

I just installed this plugin on a trunk installation (so 1.0.2 or even 1.1-alpha) and the video gets embedded just fine:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbvideo/

There is some weirdness because it looks like the plugin should have an admin page, but the link doesn’t work (that could be fixed if you needed it). But just pasting a youtube video URL into the post showed me an embedded video as expected.

Hello all,

Today I am releasing two new bbPress themes:

Thunderbolt:

Preview

Release Page

Terra Firma Two:

Preview

Release Page

I have also updated my older themes:

Misty Morning

Superbold

Carrington

Marked

Please note, my themes have a new location:

http://bbterminal.net/

I hope to continue releasing bbPress themes on a regular basis.

[mikkelsen]

I had the same problem. After I had transfered all my bbPress users over to wp_users, I just logged back into the bbPress adminpanel, went to WordPress integration settings and just clicked saved again.

Then all the user roles was correct and updated when I refreshed the WordPress adminpanel.

Is there any update on the insanely small text?

It appears (according to firebug) that the font size is set to 12px, but then it’s been made smaller by some later style. For me it’s currently looking like a 8 or 9px font size (which is incredibly difficult to read since we dropped the amount of space the text is in by almost 40% to 540px).

The margins and spacings look a bit weird/forced as well, almost like it’s using the old version of the 960 grid.

Also, as soon as the discussion includes more than 2 posts, 20-30% of the screen becomes useless whitespace.

Anyway, I’m testing this on Firefox3.6, latest Chrome and Opera 10 on Windows 7 and vista – and my iPhone.

Thanks,

Kev

P.S. The blog section’s a total disaster area also, good thing it’s not been updated in over 4 months now – otherwise people might look there for info!!! haha, don’t worry, thats not likely.

[Rich Pedley]

Updated to 0.9.1

profile page: can’t use anything but text or checkbox, so I used 2 checkboxes, but would have preferred select, or radio. (yes you can add a single radio button, but a single one is of no use!)

utilised the query, thanks.

decided that if number of deleted posts is greater than number of valid posts then they should be checked. Though it might be better to add in a bit of math there.. thoughts? validposts / 4 perhaps.

also if spam posts are greater than 1 they get checked as well.

But that part may actually be redundant because they are being checked anyway at that point, or do I have the flow wrong?

Once they hit the required number of posts they the always trust flag is set.

Commented the code, which is a first for me…

and hopefully it still works.

1 question – is there an uninstall hook to clear things from the database? I wouldn’t want to do it on deactivation – hate plugins that lose settings because of that.

[Ryan Hellyer]

Yes, but the following is quite literal:

This page is a work in progress. Please come back later for updated information.

I haven’t updated it for the new version yet since it’s still in beta. Those instructions won’t work at all with the current version.

I’ll add a note about that to save confusing people.

[Michel – xiligroup dev]

Because the repository is not updated currently, the newest release of xili New Post Notification is available here :

https://plugins-svn.bbpress.org/xili-new-post-notification/tags/0.9.2/

[Michel – xiligroup dev]

Via SVN in bbPress plugins part, xili new post notification plugin was updated this day (more than three hours ago) but the visitor interface is not yet updated. It seems that the rate is freezed and very low compared to wp plugins repository !

Has somebody infos ?

[qprints]

It’s great to see the site updated

it’s also great to see _ck_ as well w/b :o)

[mentletv]

Thanks Chris,

This has resolved the issue. I’ve updated the reference to wp-blog-header.php with one for wp-load.php in my bb-config.php file as suggested.

[NathalieLussier]

Hi!

I installed bbpress with deep integration and it was humming along nicely. Then my host went through all the database user passwords and updated them, for security purposes. They had a script to change the .php files for the wordpress installs, but not for bbpress unfortunately.

First I got “ERROR: Could not establish a database connection” on my bbpress install. I thought, no worries, I just need to update bb-config.php with the new password.

Problem: I did just that, and it is still giving me the same error.

Any chance there’s another file that also needs to be updated? Perhaps with the deep integration there’s a second place that I need to change?

Thank you SO much in advance for your help!

[zaerl]

No admin interface, hasn’t been updated for over an year -> old

No > 1.0 compatibility -> broken

My plugin take code from the _ck_ one but it’s at another level of complexity.

[Alex Luft]

@kevinjohngallagher I don’t mean to sound rude – apologies of I do – but I don’t understand your mindset…

Just because no one has come out and asked for this plugin to be updated automatically translates to there being no demand for it? This board isn’t that frequently used as it is – so how can you assume that just b/c people haven’t taken the effort to register, post, and ask for the plugin – that there isn’t demand?

And this is all while every other forum package out there includes a functioning feature provided by this plugin – with a proper back-end interface… (and please don’t tell me to go and use one of those “other” packages – I’m here for a reason).

The point is, there is work to be done. With our “limited resources,” it’s obvious that we can’t make huge changes to bbPress itself – so why not allow and encourage those who are capable and willing to go ahead and rewrite/update plugins that haven’t been touched in over two years? It’s not like we’ll be making huge strides in bbPress core with those “limited resources.”

Like I said, I don’t mean to be rude, I just simply don’t understand your frame of mind here.

– Alex

[kevinjohngallagher]

Personally,

I’d leave this one to Paul when he has time.

We have so few people contributing as is, that it seems a bit daft to start hacking each others work. It’s not that I think Paul would mind, its just that we have limited resources as is to start ‘fixing’ front end output.

And on the whole if a plugin hasn’t been updated in 2 years then the chances of “updating” it are slim. It’ll probably need a major rewrite, and if there’s been no market/demand for it for 2 years, its probably not worth it sadly. There has been a huge number of changes between bbPress0.8 >>> bbPress0.9 >>> bbPress 1.0.2; and um… _ck_ had a particular way of coding (it is obviously really effective as her work is brilliant, but it’s a bit of a nightmare to edit and refactor for 1.0.2)

[Alex Luft]

@zaerl Wait, which plugin are you referring to?

If you mean this one – https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/topic-icons/ – it hasn’t been updated for almost two years – so a modification/update would be nice either way

But if you’re referring to the plugin on this page, then it’s still a needed thing, and creating a mod/update would be welcomed. I’m sure @paulhawke wouldn’t mind… would he?

I’m on an old, but continually updated, WP install with a fresh 1.0.2 BBPress install. I could always make a brand new WP 2.9 integrate with BBPress, but could never make the live site (the updated WP) work. I’d always known it to be something to do with the older WP, but had not found what. Still don’t know exactly what, but the shorter keys make it work.

[Kevin Muldoon]

Hi jakshi,

I’m surprised you had this problem as I did the integration process several times and never had a problem with this. Not sure if this is something that is caused my a setting on a websites host or something similar. I’ve updated the article with your suggestion though so that others will know to try this solution
