By popular request here is “The Hybrid”

demo:

Essentially it’s a mash-up between the bbPress support forum theme here and Kakumei, with a few tweaks.

Requires the Topic Views plugin to be installed.

It’s older work and not as pretty as “FutureKind” (I won’t be releasing that one this year) and you can forget about “validation” unless you want to work on it quite a bit yourself, but it’s a nice alternative to the defaults.

Let me know if you get any errors or other problems.

I’ll try to fix it up some more as I have time.

I got an issue. I have Topic View plugin installed, but the theme does not display the views in the forum list, but it displays the views in the “Latest Discussion” section.

[@_ck_ Participant 15 years, 9 months ago]

View counts in the forum section require part of “my-views” plugin to be installed (my-views-most-least-views.php) or just make this a mini-plugin:

add_filter('get_forums','forums_views_append');

function forums_views_append($forums) {

if (is_front() || is_forum()) {

global $bbdb, $forums_views; $sum_meta_value="SUM(meta_value)";

if (!isset($forums_views)) {

$forums_views = $bbdb->get_results("SELECT DISTINCT forum_id, $sum_meta_value FROM $bbdb->topicmeta LEFT JOIN $bbdb->topics ON $bbdb->topicmeta.topic_id = $bbdb->topics.topic_id  WHERE $bbdb->topics.topic_status=0 AND $bbdb->topicmeta.meta_key='views'  GROUP BY $bbdb->topics.forum_id");

} foreach ($forums_views as $forum_views) {

if ($forum_views->forum_id) {$forums[$forum_views->forum_id]->views=$forum_views->$sum_meta_value;}

}

}

return $forums;

}

When i went to demo this theme it gave me a blank page. Is there another way to demo this theme?

[@_ck_ Participant 15 years, 9 months ago]

It’s working for me. What browser/os are you using?

[@citizenkeith Participant 15 years, 9 months ago]

Running Firefox 3.0.7 on Windows Vista and I don’t see bg16b.png or page_header_tile.png showing up. That said, I do see page_header_bblogo.png.

[@_ck_ Participant 15 years, 9 months ago]

Ah okay, apparently the htc file I use for old IE6 support is now causing some kind of weird behavior in IE7.

It works for me now in IE7 – but I have no idea why you couldn’t see those images, it works for me.

[@citizenkeith Participant 15 years, 9 months ago]

When I “view source” those images don’t show up. They’re in the CSS file… they SHOULD show up.

[@citizenkeith Participant 15 years, 9 months ago]

You’ll need to change this one:

#latest tr, #forumlist tr, #favorites tr {behavior:url("/forums/my-templates/kakumei-too/images/hoverlite.htc");}

[@_ck_ Participant 15 years, 9 months ago]

Yes I already removed that, try doing a hard refresh (shift f5)

[@citizenkeith Participant 15 years, 9 months ago]

Didn’t realize that you uploaded a new version. Thanks!

Please help,thank you

[@_ck_ Participant 15 years, 9 months ago]

Sorry, looks like I left some customized leftovers in there.

Simply remove line 5 entirely or comment it out like this

<?php // my_views_header(); ?>

Thank you._ck_
