Hi guys,

I recently released a plugin for bbPress+WordPress, which adds a brand new shortcode that displays various statistics for your forum, and also includes the bbPress Statistics as an on/off toggle.

For those trying to replicate a similar look and feel to say, phpBB or vBulletin, this will help!

In future versions, I plan on implementing an actual widget – however, due to the way I have written the plugin I get the feeling it would require a full rewrite to achieve that – so it may be a while off yet.

Anyway, if you’re interested, check it out here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-improved-statistics-users-online/

As you can see the statistics in the forum instead of having to enter [bbpas-activity] into a widget?

thanks

@ricsca2

this should do it.

function rk_show_advstats() {
  echo do_shortcode( '[bbpas-activity]' );  
}  

add_action( 'bbp_template_after_forums_index', 'rk_show_advstats' );
add_action( 'bbp_template_after_topics_index', 'rk_show_advstats' );
add_action( 'bbp_template_after_single_topic', 'rk_show_advstats' );
add_action( 'bbp_template_after_single_forum', 'rk_show_advstats' );

@geekserve

add this to your plugin description or installation.section on your plugins page.

it seems it would be the most useful function for your plugin.

Hi,

I have now added this functionality to the plugin, no need to add it into your functions file – it something you can do within the plugin itself.

Thanks for the feedback, and thank you for your assistance Robkk –
