This is the ‘(bbpress) recent topics’ widget?
and you have it set with topics with recent relies – yes?
That widget doesn’t allow for the reply author.
It could be copied to a functions file, renamed and then edited to do so. If you are reasonable with coding, I will explain further.
Oh yes, sorry about that – yes it is!
I don’t know if I’m reasonable. I understand HTML/CSS and basic PHP 🙂
sorry, have now just looked at this again
Isn’t this just the ‘latest replies’ widget that you need to use, or how does your request differ?
Yes and no.
That widget shows every reply, so if topic 1 is really active, it shows the last five persons who wrote in that topic – i just want to know who wrote the latest reply in one topic
Topic 1 – last reply by XXX
Topic 2 – last reply by ZZZ
Topic 3 – last reply by XYZ
So what I want is like a merger between the two widgets. I want to show the latest topics (based on the latest replies) and the author of the latest reply.
yes I’ve thought before that that would be good, I’ll take a look
ok, I’ve just finished coding a ‘latest activity’ widget that should do what you want.
I’ve added it to my bbp-style-pack
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
which you can load to the site and just use (there’s lots of other stuff in there), or if you’re code savvy, you can fork it form includes/widgets.php into your functions file
Hope you enjoy it !
Wow, thank you so much! It works perfectly! Amazing!
Hey great = glad you like it, and a useful addition, so thanks for raising it
Oh, one thing. How do I get it to link to the latest reply and not the first post in the topic?
oops, yes I should code it to go to that, I’ll do an amend !
Great. This is so much appreciated. Thank you!
now amended and in Version 1.9 together with hide avatar and shorten freshness options
