Hello,

I would like to include an image with link on the last post as on the freshness user with the bbp_forum_freshness_link () function.
The user can click on the image to read the last post, see my screenshot.

Thank you for your answers.
Regards

So all the same image – yes ?

[@frenchlemans Participant 3 years, 11 months ago]

Hello,

Yes it will always be the same image.
Members of my old phpBB forum that I am remaking on bbPress are familiar with this image that I want to reuse on my new bbPress forum.

When the user clicks on the link it takes them to the last posted message, just as if they were clicking on the date and time.

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

or use

Code Snippets

add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_topic_author', 'rew_freshness_display_image');

function rew_freshness_display_image ($forum_id = 0) {
	// Verify forum and get last active meta
	$forum_id  = bbp_get_forum_id( $forum_id );
		$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_active_id( $forum_id );
		$link_url  = $title = '';

		if ( empty( $active_id ) )
			$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_id( $forum_id );

		if ( empty( $active_id ) )
			$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_id( $forum_id );

		if ( bbp_is_topic( $active_id ) ) {
			//then reset forum_id to the forum of the active topic in case it is a sub forum
			$forum_id = bbp_get_topic_forum_id($active_id);
			$link_url = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_permalink( $forum_id );
			$title    = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_title( $forum_id );
		} elseif ( bbp_is_reply( $active_id ) ) {
			//then reset forum_id to the forum of the active topic in case it is a sub forum
			$forum_id = bbp_get_reply_forum_id($active_id);
			$link_url = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_url( $forum_id );
			$title    = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_title( $forum_id );
		}
		
		$anchor = '<a class="rew_freshness_display_image" href="' . esc_url( $link_url ) . '" title="' . esc_attr( $title ) . '"><img src="http://mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Brauhaus-2.jpg">' . '</a>';
	
echo '<p>'.$anchor.'</p>' ;
}

and change the <img src="http://mysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Brauhaus-2.jpg" /> to the image you want – make sure it is sized right !!

it works great, thanks.

However, is it possible to have the image under the date as I show on the screenshot?

Thank you

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 11 months ago]

@frenchlemans

so can you detail the settings in freshness tab please

[@frenchlemans Participant 3 years, 11 months ago]

@ robin-w
I’m sorry, I don’t understand what you mean by “setting freshness tab”
where is it ?

[@frenchlemans Participant 3 years, 11 months ago]

@ robin-w
I’sorry i say a mistake, i don’t have bbp style pack
I have bbp initial

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 11 months ago]

ok,

the default display order is freshness, followed by author – you have it the other way around.

try changing the line above

add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_topic_author', 'rew_freshness_display_image');

to

add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_forum_freshness_link', 'rew_freshness_display_image');

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 11 months ago]

[@frenchlemans Participant 3 years, 11 months ago]

@ robin-w

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 11 months ago]
