Hello

I juste have installed my BBPress forum on my web site. I run a web site with buddypress.

When I want to identify a user with @, the list of the BP users does not appear.

Can someone help me ?

Thanks.

Fabien

If you have buddypress, it’s a buddypress feature, so probably their support forum first

@carasse64, I use bbPress with BuddyPress too and I have never seen @name “completion” on my site. I don’t think it’s actually a feature of BuddyPress (or the bbPress/Buddypress combination), although I’ve seen it on some other types of forums. So I would not expect to see that list. Of course I could be wrong.

(Sorry to continue the BP discussion here 🙂

Thank you @mike80222. I have read an old topic on this forum where someone had created with feature with lines of code. I have to find it again 🙂

@mike80222 – your input is always welcome and useful 🙂

Just looked and I created a small plugin here http://www.rewweb.co.uk/download/bbp-mentions-suggest/

this says that it ‘Adds the Buddypress mentions suggest as you type to bbpress topics and replies’

so I got the idea from somewhere that it was a bp feature.

It was sometime ago that I wrote/copied this, so have no memory of whether it still works !

Il gonna try it ans let you know if it Works.

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

thanks – I don’t promise to do anything if it doesn’t – but would be useful to know

[@mike80222 Participant 3 years, 3 months ago]

I’ll be interested to hear what happens too!

[@mike80222 Participant 3 years, 3 months ago]

@robin-w, @carasse64:
I tried it on a test site just now. I didn’t do any extensive testing, but does appear to work!
Pretty cool.

I wish I could claim some credit – it was some code I found somewhere !

From looking at the code, I’m presuming that bp has that functionality somewhere else – this just seems to add it for topics/replies.

[@mike80222 Participant 3 years, 3 months ago]

> I’m presuming that bp has that functionality somewhere …

Yeah, that must be the case.

@mike80222 @robin-w

I just have installed it and it seems to work perfectly 🙂

I’ll let you know if I experience issues with this cool plugin.

Hi

Just tried it but nothing happens when typing @”

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 2 months ago]

Are you running buddypress as well ?

[@deepblue5 Participant 3 years, 2 months ago]

no only bbpress

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 2 months ago]

that will be why it doesn’t work

[@deepblue5 Participant 3 years, 2 months ago]

ok i thought it was working with bbpress only 🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 2 months ago]

no it adds the buddypress feature to bbpress

[@deepblue5 Participant 3 years, 2 months ago]

ok i see
this feature would be interesting for bbpress alone

[@robin-w Moderator 3 years, 2 months ago]

it would but far too much work to create

[@deepblue5 Participant 3 years, 2 months ago]

ok i see, and also i fear it might slow down the forums
