I am looking for some help with the plugin bb-ratings. Specifically the functions bb_top_topics. From what I gather it returns an array of topics in descending order of the votes the topics have received. I took that information and put the following in my front page template: <?php bb_top_topics();

foreach ($topics as $topic) : ?>

<tr<?php alt_class('forum'); ?>>

<td><a href="<?php topic_link(); ?>"><?php topic_title(); ?></a>

</td>

<td class="num"><div class="rating-holder"><?php bb_rating();?>

<span class="count"><?php bb_rating_count(); ?>

The problem is that it does not display the topics in descending order, it just displays all of the most recent in the order they were entered.

I know the plugin page (bbpress.org/plugins/) has this function working as it should be.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Try

$topics = bb_top_topics();

as your first line.

D’oh! Works like a charm.

Just goes to show that you can look at something too hard.

Thanks so much.

Same thing happened to me in one of mine. I was using get_header instead of bb_get_header. Silly mistakes are the worst when you need help finding them

Glad it works

Any chance we can get a chunk of functioning code to implement bb_top_topics()

(the code in the first message and subsequent messages are not working for me…)

I have been playing with it for better pat of a day and no go.

Thanks!
