Sub Forums
-
Example:
Let’s say front-page.php lists 3 categories
Fruits
Veggies
Meats
If you were to click on Fruits; I’d like the next page to show the subforums of that parent excluding veggies, & meats forums. Any comments appreciated.
Basically, I want categories with sub-forums but in a format/structure that you would find in phpbb where subforums are cleanly kept on the next page. Why? Because showing everything in one location can get a bit messy. Especially with subforums.
I have searched through the bbpress forum for this and was able to get the following to work related to the front-page.php portion. Now I just need to get the 2nd page to show the children of the category. Currently it isn’t doing that.
*****front-page.php which works in only displaying the categories****************
<?php foreach( $forums as $forum ) : if( !$forum->forum_parent ) { ?>
<tr<?php alt_class(‘forum’); ?>>
<td>“><?php forum_name(); ?> <small><?php forum_description(); ?></small></td>
<td class=”num”><?php forum_topics(); ?></td>
<td class=”num”><?php forum_posts(); ?></td>
</tr>
<?php } endforeach; ?>
Now I would like the child accounts to show up in forum.php
Any suggestions? Or where I could look? Once you click on the parent forum it just takes you to that category forum.php page, with no children. i need the children to show up but only for that parent.
*****forum.php which I need to show the children*********************
<?php bb_get_header(); ?>
<?php if ( is_bb_profile() ) profile_menu(); ?>
<?php login_form(); ?>
<div id=”main”>
<div id=”forums”>
<h3 class=”bbcrumb”>“><?php bb_option(‘name’); ?> » <?php forum_name(); ?></h3>
<?php if ( $topics || $stickies ) : ?>
<table id=”latest”>
<tr>
<th><?php _e(‘Topic’); ?> — <?php new_topic(); ?></th>
<th><?php _e(‘Posts’); ?></th>
<th><?php _e(‘Last Poster’); ?></th>
<th><?php _e(‘Freshness’); ?></th>
</tr>
<?php if ( $stickies ) : foreach ( $stickies as $topic ) : ?>
<tr<?php topic_class(); ?>>
<td><?php _e(‘Sticky:’); ?> <big>“><?php topic_title(); ?></big></td>
<td class=”num”><?php topic_posts(); ?></td>
<td class=”num”><?php topic_last_poster(); ?></td>
<td class=”num”><small><?php topic_time(); ?></small></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach; endif; ?>
<?php if ( $topics ) : foreach ( $topics as $topic ) : ?>

<td class=”num”><small><?php topic_time(); ?></small></td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach; endif; ?>

<div class=”nav”>
<?php forum_pages(); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
