Can any one here tell me the code? I know for topic url it is: <?php topic_posts_link(); ?>

what is it for the posts? its usually linked to every post with a #

thanks in advance.

What are you trying to get a link to? There are topics, then there are posts (replies actually) which are just anchor links in a topic. There’s no such concept as a single post in bbPress that I know of (unlike WordPress where you can display a single post with single.php)

What are you trying to do? Maybe post an example of something here that you’re trying to link to.

post.php line 11

<a href="<?php post_anchor_link(); ?>">#</a>

I’m trying to insert the Like button from Facebook into my bbpress-based forum. Therefor i need the exact url of each reply.

is there a code for that? at the moment im using <?php topic_posts_link(); ?> but thats not the best one, cos it generates a link to the topic url, instead to the reply url.

@chanderbs

a post don’t have its own page like in other forum scripts, if that’s what you looking for

[@zaerl Participant 16 years ago]

Yes. The post URL is just an anchor URL appended to the topic URL like in many BBS engine out there. As ashfame said you can’t have a page that display only a single post. But what you want can be easily achieved with a plugin.

[@chandersbs Member 16 years ago]

To give an example. A piece of code generates the post url of each reply in this topic, see below:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/direct-code-to-post-url#post-67659

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/direct-code-to-post-url#post-67660

i want the code that generates that unique url for each reply.

Is there a way?

You want to look here to find such a function: https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1207

[@chandersbs Member 16 years ago]

hey foof, i checked the page, and the source code of post.php don’t actually now what u wanted to show me (or where my answer is… )

[@chandersbs Member 16 years ago]

@zaerl weird enough, just today im seeing your replies, was it caught by akismet??

[@zaerl Participant 16 years ago]

Maybe. It seems that Akismet has done a mess here.

@chandersbs

did you check out the patch submitted by foof? Its what you need

I wonder why kevin changed the milestone to 1.5?

[@chandersbs Member 16 years ago]

okay ashfame, will check again, thanx.

I have created a plugin that expose permalinks to posts. But I’m not very sure that it’s what you want. I have uploaded it five minutes ago. Grab it (if it’s what you need) when the SVN refresh:

https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/zaerl-post-permalink/

It exports a function:

za_post_permalink($id = 0)

which returns a link in the form:

http://domain.com/post/number if mod_rewrite is used

http://domain.com/?post=number otherwise

if you pass 0 or nothing to the function it takes the current post ID (if any).

Have a nice day.
