Changing the URL of breadcrumbs

Published on March 13th, 2012 by cbeiting

Right now I have breadcrumbs on my forum and they look like this:

example.com > forum > topic

Now to get to the forum, we’re using example.com/forum — so it’s all seo and good and whatnot, but when you click on the “forum” breadcrumb it’s going to example.com/page_id=7 — how do I change it so it goes to /forum?

Thoughts?

Register feature: registration not allowed

Published on March 13th, 2012 by bloggingsfe

I’ve installed your widget for my Twenty_Ten site, but when someone clicks on the Register feature, they get the WordPress login page with the message: User registration is currently not allowed.

Any suggestions would be very appreciated!

wp_query filter topics by tag

Published on March 13th, 2012 by cookiebear

I am working on a wordpress template page.

i am trying to retrieve a list of topic threads and filtering by tag.

I can get topics without tag filtering by using something like this

$forumargs = array(    'post_type' => 'topic', 'numberposts' => 15 );
$mytopics = new WP_Query( $forumargs );

while ( $mytopics->have_posts() ) : $mytopics->the_post();
the_title();
echo '<div class="entry-content">';
the_content();
echo '</div>';
endwhile;

but when i try to filter by tag , it returns nothing.

$forumargs = array( 'tag'=>'mytagname', 'post_type' => 'topic', 'numberposts' => 15 );

i have seen that there is something called tax_query, but i cannot figure out if i can use that, or how to use it.

how should this work?

Change Link in Registration Email

Published on March 12th, 2012 by acousticwebdesign

When a new user registers, they get an email with their username, password, and a link to log in. By default, this link is /wp-login.php

I have a login form in my sidebar and I want the registration email to link to the forum homepage instead of wp-login.php. How do I do this? I noticed that bbpress.org does this as well.

Two bbPress forums at one page

Published on March 12th, 2012 by Tgg1990

Hi

I wonder if it is possible to innstall the bbPress plugins twice on a page? Two different mainforums? I need it because I want some extra fields to one of the forums. Instead of keyword I will have Sport.

Is it a way that I can install bbPress twice on my webpage?

Add some descriptive text – how?

Published on March 12th, 2012 by Martin

Hi,

When I created my forum menu, I used the permalink i.e /forum

Now I find I would like to add some preface instructions to give my users (especially casual posters) some informative instructions on how to post. How to do this is often lost on people wanting to post first time questions.

Is there a way to do this? Can I convert from the permalink to an actual Page with a shortcode and still keep the same URLs / permalink setup I have now?

Clues?

How can I make bbpress forums wider than my usual blog content?

Published on March 12th, 2012 by dangerZ

My Blog content looks good at a narrower width,

but forum content generally looks better at wider widths.

I would like to style bbpress forums wide, while keeping my other content narrow width

The problem is that with the current div hierarchy i don’t see how to do this.

the div hierarchy of BBpress forums right now is this:

<Div id =”Content”>

<div class =”entry”>

BBPress forum stuff

Since div class Entry is shared between blog stuff and bbpress, there’s no way i can see for me to keep the blog entries narrow while making forums wide.

Any way around this?

PHP validation and error messages in user profiles

Published on March 11th, 2012 by Rambomst

I have added a custom field to user profiles in bbPress however I am unsure how to do form validation other than javascript. I would like to do some PHP validation however the few things I have tried didn’t work.

If you fail to enter an email it will say “ERROR: Please enter an e-mail address.” after you have submitted the form. I want something like that.

I have tried:

$myErrors = new WP_Error();

$myErrors->add(‘id_error’, __(‘Test error.’,””));

bbp_add_error( ‘bbp_steamid_invalid’, __( ‘ERROR: The ID you entered is invalid.’, ‘bbpress’ ) );

I am not at all familiar with error handling in both WordPress and bbPress however I feel it is a must.

Any help would be must appreciated.

Set layout for forums root, forums, topics and replies

Published on March 11th, 2012 by SK

In WordPress, there is an opportunity to select the template for each page (dropdown on Edit Page and Edit Post pages).

bbPress forum root, forums, topics and replies are custom post types.

It would be good to see in bbPress the ability to set the default layout (wrapper) for each of these.

Dropdown (like the one on Edit Page page), wherein the admin can select the layouts from among the active theme’s layouts shall be ideal.

(I understand that if after this the admin decides to change the theme, (s)he will need to select the default layouts for bbPress custom posts again – just like (s)he needs to do so for normal pages and posts)

So, for instance, while the rest of my site may use 3-column (2-sidebar) layout, for forums, I may decide to go with a single-column layout.
