Last post date-time instead of Freshness

Published on February 20th, 2014 by SK

Ticket https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2031

One feature that I struggle a bit in why bbPress broke from the norm is Freshness. It is customary to have the last column for “Last post” which includes the date-time of last post (topic/reply) and the author of last post.

bbPress has decided to use “Freshness” instead of “Last post” as title. Instead of date-time, it displays time-since.

Perhaps time to move to the more convention approach here. Probably good for performance too – won’t need to calculate freshness.

Mirroring Forum Posts

Published on February 20th, 2014 by PPD

I have a configuration that is requiring me to have posts in child forums replicated in their respective parent forums. For example, I have a forum named “Numbers 1-5″. That forum contains child forums “1″, “2″, “3″, “4″, and “5″. If a user posts anything in any of the forums 1-5, it will automatically replicate itself in the “Numbers 1-5″ forum. I’ve search, and am probably using the wrong keywords, but can’t find anything on this. Has anyone else done this before or can anyone help?

Discussion list, compact with expand & collaspe

Published on February 20th, 2014 by lizat

I would like my discussion list display to be somewhat more compact. Can I display a single line, with the subject, author, no avatar and then expand or collapse in-line. Is this do-able?

Thank you

liz

WordPress with bbpress

Participant Role cannot see original topic content

Published on February 19th, 2014 by Bizstudio

If I give a user ‘Keymaster’ permissions, they can see the topic, but not with Participant permissions. WP 3.8.1, BB 2.5.3, Theme 2013

Also using User Role Editor

I note that I cannot view BBPress permissions in the user role editor panel.

I could migrate to another role editor, but this might be a bit complex as we have a number of roles…

Any thoughts?

users can add topics but not view their original topic or others

I have a similar issue, users can add topics but not view their original topic or others.
Using 2013 Theme and User Role Editor (plus other plugins)
Any solutions thus far?

What does the user see when Askimet catches spam?

Published on February 19th, 2014 by Josh

I’m wondering what error message a user will see when Askimet catches forum spam? And is there a spam folder somewhere where an admin can see forum posts marked spam?

I ask because I’m having forum users occasionally get a “Error: Your topic cannot be created at this time” notice. One user had two accounts and I think her issue was with her browser cache. But that doesn’t seem to be the problem with the second user.

Changing profile link from wp-admin to bbpress profile

Published on February 19th, 2014 by Chito

I have the below code in my menu to add login & register. it is working fine but I just want to redirect the profile link to bbpress profile page instead of going to wp-login. Currently user role displays in the place of register after logged in, it will be great if some one help me to get “Welcome username” and link to bbpress profile page.

Thanks so much in advance…

add_filter(‘wp_nav_menu_items’, ‘add_login_logout_link’, 10, 2);
function add_login_logout_link($items, $args) {
if( $args->theme_location == ‘top-menu’ ) {
$loginoutlink = wp_loginout(‘index.php’, false);
$registerlink = wp_register(”, ”, false);
$items .= ‘<li class=”menu-item login”>’. $loginoutlink .” . ‘<li class=”menu-item register”>’ . $registerlink . ”;
}
return $items;
}

Fixing my bbpress disply

Published on February 19th, 2014 by gavpedz

Hi all so i have been playing with my bbpress install a little to get what i want and am almost there!

All i would like to do now is tidy it up a little but could do with some help!

On this forum you have a nice clean bar showing create topic favorites and subscriptions, how can i create this on my forum. Does not have to be exactly the same but similar.

Also how can i fix the subscribe button/link as it is not displayed very well as you can see here.  photo NewPicture1_zps663a6175.png
Also i created a page which i put the shortcode for new topic form which i link to from the main forum page as a button. this is great but the form does not display well on the page. How can i fix this? the forum is really spaced out as you can see here  photo NewPicture2_zps466d0fa3.png

Any help on any of this would be great
