This is quite old (check this diff)

<?php echo date(__('F j, Y, h:i A'), bb_get_post_time()); ?>

replace it with

<?php bb_post_time( __('F j, Y, h:i A') ); ?>

You are using 0.8.3, right? You should use an updated theme.

Edit: fixed..

[Trent Adams]

Just wanted to show off my newest updated version of onvertigo.com. Until we get an import/export tool that actually works, I am not going to have my previous forum as I need to install off a backup and that would be a pain. So, in the meantime, I came up with a small forum about music.

The design is pretty basic, but I wanted to see if anyone had any pointers on the design or comments to make it better!

Thanks,

http://bbpress.de is not an official site, and they seem not to be interested in a good localization. The “bbPress Deutschland” makers created a language file a few months ago, but this translation is not complete, it contains a lot of typing mistakes, some terms which are easy to misunderstand for a german reader and some wrong texts too. It hasn’t never been updated.

I love bbPress (and sometimes, I hate it), so I decided to create my own and better translation. I had worked only a few hours on it, and the result is a translation much better than the bbpress.de one.

The existance of a language file is a reason to use bbPress. People should know which translations are existing, and I think, they should know it from an official site. At the moment, there is no “official” german site, but only the bbpress.de. This is a project of “inpsyde”, the makers of wordpress-deutschland.de. A few weeks ago, they tried to deliver a “german WordPress version” with an advertising plugin silently, which was called by some people – me included – as a kind of “plugin spam”. (It wasn’t announced and not marked as an advertisement for the german company LinkLift.) This attempt to create an “official looking german WordPress release with advertising” failed, there was a great resistance from the german WordPress users. This is a strong reason for me not to trust those people anymore. I want the translation to be as free as possible from the early days on.

Trac is generally very coder oriented. I’m not a coder but I can keep up sometimes. I can apply the patch to the file and then send you the updated files, maybe that will work. Or if you have access to a linux system, patch is the name of an executable that will most likely already be installed.

[fel64]

Just updated the thing. Dudes with the “my capabilities keep getting screwed”, try it. Ugly but worth a shot.

[fel64]

Yeah, sorry for the delay. I think I fixed stuff last night – at least my error messages are gone – so I’ll upload a new version.

Here we go, use the download link at the very bottom to get it (or use the normal plugin page, once it’s updated).

[tbronson]

It seems to be a user thing. I’d been posting from a user that’d been established in WordPress. I updated it to Key Master in bbPress, so it should have all powers. But I found that, apart from tags, I couldn’t delete a post either, same no permission message (same as noted by Jolaedana above). So I logged out and logged in as Superadmin, the default account from bbPress installation, and voila, I can do everything, add tags, delete posts.

That doesn’t solve the problem. I haven’t tested to see what happens with other users, both already registered from WP and registered through bbPress. But it’s a workaround for me, and a…clue.

[Graeme]

I’ve just posted some updates. See this post on my site.

I will tidy up the downloads page so you can still get to old versions. For now you can only access links to the latest themes.

[Graeme]

You appear to be using identical style.css files for the wordpress and bbpress sections of your site. You can fix this by copying some CSS rules from one of my theme downloads.

I have just updated the blank bbPress themes at bbpressraw.com with new versions that have a forum-like tabular style.

You can see them in action via the theme switcher at the bottom of the bbpressraw.com forums page.

To solve your problem, I suggest you download one of the themes and copy all of the rules below:

/* Global Styles

=================================== */

hr {

display: none;

}

into the bottom of your bbPress theme stylesheet. This will allow you to pick up all the bbPress CSS rules that are applied by these themes. Tweak these CSS rules in order to change the appearance of the forums.

Enjoy!

Sounds like no amount of messing with the template could save you from this fate. I have no idea why you would have done this, but have you replaced profile.php in the root of bb with a template file? This is what profile.php should look like. (Your custom templates should go in a my-templates/ folder in root.)

<?php

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



bb_repermalink(); // The magic happens here.



if ( $self ) {

if ( strpos($self, '.php') !== false ) {

require($self);

} else {

require( BBPATH . 'profile-base.php' );

}

return;

}



$reg_time = strtotime( $user->user_registered );

$profile_info_keys = get_profile_info_keys();



if ( !isset( $_GET['updated'] ) )

$updated = false;

else

$updated = true;



do_action( 'bb_profile.php_pre_db', $user_id );



if ( isset($user->is_bozo) && $user->is_bozo && $user->ID != bb_get_current_user_info( 'id' ) && !bb_current_user_can( 'moderate' ) )

$profile_info_keys = array();



$posts = get_recent_user_replies( $user_id );

$threads = get_recent_user_threads( $user_id );



do_action( 'bb_profile.php', $user_id );



bb_load_template( 'profile.php', array('reg_time', 'profile_info_keys', 'updated', 'threads') );

?>

_ck_: have you considered hacking up a plugin that gathers information about the forum upon activation and once per month after that and submits it to you in some way? Would automate the process way more for you and admins instead of having to post the link to you, and then you having to review all the sites.

I’m thinking it would fill out an HTML form and submit it to a site you had. Then people could log in and see updated information about the most active bbPress boards and what their functionality was. And you could compile a static list regularly.

If it was well written, I’d be interested in seeing it in bbPress by default so new admins who wouldn’t find the plugin here could activate it and submit statistics.

Ofcourse, there’d be some bozos trying to inflate their numbers sometime down the line..

[fel64]

> Also anyone know why bozo status isn’t just a checkbox in the Kakumei theme??

No, but there’s an input type=”text” instead. Go to the bozo’s profile, edit it and set the bozo status from 1 to 0, then save.

(Also, the original problem in this thread is now irrelevant because bb has been updated. I assume your problem is a different one from M and the others.)

[mciarlo]

Website Updated! Comments welcome.

[1drummergirl]

I just updated my bbpress forum after a few months of neglect and I’m looking to pump some new life into it and add some new plugins.

There’s not near as much activity in the forums as my regular blog, but I do get some folks who would rather post in the forums than on the front page of the site.

Let me know if anything looks amiss.

Well I have read and searched many articles to fix my issue, but still no luck. I have problems uploading the order of the lists when you press submit using bbmenu.

I know I have to use the serialize option from interface (jQuery), the question only is HOW? How do I get the order updated using it?

Some stuff I’ve read:

SortSerialize

This function returns the hash and an object (can be used as arguments for $.post) for every sortables in the page or specific sortables. The hash is based on the ‘id’ attributes of container and items.

Code sample:

serial = $.SortSerialize('sortable1');

alert(serial.hash);

And some interesting stuff here:

The save button function uses the SortSerialize function and some regExp to

get a comma-delimited list of the movie IDs and sends it to a generic

webservice:

$("[EMAIL PROTECTED]").click(function(){

var serial = $.SortSerialize();

//alert( serial );

var idList = serial.hash.replace(/sortableList[]=/gi,'').replace(/

&/g,',');

//alert( idList );

var collectionId = new String( $("[EMAIL PROTECTED]

$=hiddenCollectionId]").val() );

if (collectionId != "undefined") {

$.ajax({

type: "GET",

url: "Handlers/Movies.ashx",

dataType: "html",

data: "action=savecollection&overwrite=true&collectionId=" +

collectionId + "&iList=" + idList,

success: function(msg){

$("span#updatemsg").html( msg );

}

});

}

return false;

});

(cool: $.ajax is included in jQuery?)

Any 1 can help me figure this out? The jQuery forum (google groups) is just too sucky (no post appears when I want to add my question) to get any help from.

To see what I have now download:

http://www.sourceskins.com/bbmenu2.0alpha.zip

How to use this Alpha build?

You MUST have bbmenu 1.2 installed. When installed and running succesfull, deactiate the plugin. Now upload this alpha build and activate it. You can now drag and drop the menu tabs (using jQuery yeah), but saving wont work (the save button is “empty”).

Thx for the help

Updated to v0.05 with important improvements to make sure admin posts are filtered correctly, please upgrade if currently using:

http://ckon.wordpress.com/files/2007/08/admin-can-post-anything.txt?v005

(also in the svn shortly)

[howtogeek]

We are in perfect sync on that one… having xml-rpc pingbacks in a forum is the most worthless feature idea to ever be thought of. I’ve completely disabled them on wordpress because I don’t think they provide any true value to the reader, and most of them are spam anyway. I’ve written my own simple spam plugin to run in conjunction with Akismet because I was unsatisfied with what I was getting.

Your idea of the wordpress logins would work if they implemented OpenID in bbPress and had wordpress.com as an openid server. Would actually be a killer feature, I’d think.

I’ve hacked up my wp-cache2 to allow for more dynamic code to be called on each post. Most of my content is really very static, so I don’t need it to be updated often.

I’ve never had any issues with it caching the wrong versions though.

[_ck_]

Here we go!

http://ckon.wordpress.com/2007/07/31/new-plugin-bbpress-signatures/

updated to v0.11 – now with admin menu!

http://ckon.wordpress.com/files/2007/07/bb-signatures.txt

(rename .txt to .php)

If you have plugins for smilies and/or allow images in post text, it will obey them, this is probably a good thing and desired.

You can set the minimum user level needed to show signatures and also the ability not to repeat a user’s signature more than once per page.

Instructions: install, activate, tinker with settings in admin menu

If you would like the optional toggle on new/edit posts to disable signatures you must edit the edit-form.php & post-form.php templates and place at or near the bottom:

<? bb_signatures_checkbox(); ?>

(you can wrap it in a DIV and float it to the left, right style anyway you’d like

sorry but there’s no way to do this directly through a plugin)

Here’s a fancier version that I use:

<div style=”float:left” ><? if (function_exists(‘bb_signatures_checkbox’)) {bb_signatures_checkbox();} ?></div>

Version History:

0.05 :slashes & autop fixed, replaced input with textarea, max_lines now supported in post-processing, max_length checked in realtime (as well as post processing)

0.06 :internal testing/bugfix

0.07 :per-post signature toggle

0.08 :toggle for allow html and allow images should now work

0.10 :basic functioning admin menu

0.11 :more intelligent admin menu

[fel64]

Updated to version ω (the labelling is entirely arbitrary). (Does this fix it Crowspeaker?) Once you upgrade, you needa press that ‘upgrade’ button or your previous bbsync’ed posts will no longer work.

[_ck_]

This plugin should be updated, cleaned-up (a lot) and released into the SVN for others to see.

It’s very easy to apply filters to the signature just like the post text, smiles, auto-close tags and a whole bunch of other tweaks and security could be easily added.

I believe it’s also possible to auto-add the signature field into the profile edit page via actions/filters so no user editing required.

Last but not least I think there should be an option that is on by default to only show one signature for the member per page so it doesn’t get too annoying for viewers.

[mazdakam]

I noticed the “support forum” plugin was outputting english strings in your forum. I have just updated the plugin to use gettext on all the strings that weren’t using it. So if you want full translation it is now available (you will need to modify your language files to add the strings).

yes you are right. i was busy for configuring the plugins now i am free for translating plugins languages

so i have my bbpress full translating where can i upload it?

i eamil it to the mailing list but i got no reply

[ganzua]

I’d better remove signatures from the template till the plugin is updated

[_ck_]

Oh sweet. Heading off to try it.

Thanks for making it use curl.

*pout* still no list…

“The plugin list was updated from revision 0 to revision 519.”
