I have noticed this on other forum medias such as Xenforo, is there a plugin etc. to show via a popup window the contents of first post in a given topic when a user hovers over a topic ?

I have had a good look at plugins etc, just hopefully something already created ?

Thanks

A re bump incase it helps;

I am looking for a similar plugin as described in the below bbpress thread from 4 years ago regarding post previews for bbpress

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/preview-post/

Alas both bbp-live-preview and bbpress-live-preview are no longer supported ?

Any guidance most welcomed

although not suppprted, I suspect they will both work ok – have you tried them?

[uksentinel]

understood – I will give them a go and let you know

Thanks

[uksentinel]

so I had a play with those pluggins and alas not exacty what I was looking to achieve

To help clarify, this is NOT about previewing before posting. I am Wondering how to show the first X words of a thread or post as a tooltip when hovering over the thread link for example. Any plugins? Code? etc.

I have seen option for WordPress, but not for bbpress ?

A re-bump of above thread, just incase somebody missed it previously 😉

nothing I know of, could be coded, but requires someone with the time to do this

Hi Robin, I was drawing to the same conclusion also, I realis this is a bit of a wide question, would you have any idea what this could cost, I realize this is a very open ended question, but cold be something worth investing in from my perspective ?

I realize updates would be required, but that’s a problem for another day ?

Thanks

For future reference – Robin has very kindly added this option (Topic Preview) to his bbp style pack v4.6.5 plugin and a big thanks you for all Peters efforts on this

[Robin W]

Robin has released v4.6.6 for bbp-style-pack and so far working well 😉
