Linking a subforum to a specific page

Published on April 6th, 2010 by miruru

I’m not sure if this is even possible but here goes.

I have created a subforum and I want this subforum to be linked directly to a wordpress page. So that when users clicks onto this link, it will take them directly to a page which i have already set up.

Is this even possible? Any ideas will be grateful.

Moved BBpress to new database, wont work anymore

Published on April 6th, 2010 by Duke

Hello,

I recently moved a WP site + BBpress to another host (but im using the same domain), so I set up whole new DB for each, and imported the old DBs.

WP is working fine, I just had to edit the wp-config file and it connected perfectly to the new db (with the old data imported).

The problem is BBpress now. I thought that just editing the DB info in the bb-config file with the new DB would have been enough, but it’s now giving me this: ERROR: Could not establish a database connection

But I know that everything is correct! (i use a plugin on WP that retrieves all the topic from BBpress and it is retrieving everything from the new BBpress DB).

I wonder if there’s more I should edit? but where?

Could the problem be that WP and BBpress were integrated? Where can I change the WP integration info for BBpress? Maybe BBpress is trying to find the old WP db info on the old server?

Help please :(

Plugin activation

Published on April 5th, 2010 by januzi2

Someone integrated wordpress with bbpress. Now admin panel for the bbpress shows only users, topics and posts. Is it possible to fix it ? Is there a way to manually (by the phpmyadmin) activate new plugins ?

'undelete' topics does not work

Published on April 5th, 2010 by

if I delete a topic, then go back to the topic via the admin panel in order to ‘undelete’ the topic, it doesn’t work.

On clicking ‘undelete entire topic’ I am forwarded to a blank screen at a url in this format (had to break it up to fit on the page):

/bbpress/bb-admin/delete-topic.php?
id=2090&view=all&_wp_http_referer=/bbpress/topic.php
%3Fid%3D2090%26view%3Dall&_wpnonce=be30703be1

this is the case with no plugins installed and default template. Any ideas? I couldn’t find this issue anywhere on the forums already.

Highlighting the current forum tab

Published on April 5th, 2010 by Damien

Hi, I’m making a navigation and was looking for help with highlighting the links, depending what page/forum you are on.

I have a homepage nav link like:

<a href="/forum">Mainpage</a>

how can I add class=”current” and highlight the link when on the mainpage?

I also run a list of the forums in a similar style

<?php foreach ( $forums as $forum ) : ?>
<a class="forum-link" href="<?php forum_link( $forum->forum_id ); ?>"><?php forum_name( $forum->forum_id ); ?></a>
<?php endforeach; ?>

Is there a way to add class=”current” depending on what forum the user is browsing?

I know this can be done on wordpress, but I dont know the functions for bbpress yet, and good info is far and wide.

Nicer Improved Spoiler Plugin

Published on April 5th, 2010 by psycheangels

based on https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/improved-spoiler/

instead only using css my mod using javascript based on spoiler plugin vbulletin

here is the php mod http://pastebin.com/ReTD7eJE

and this is the final look

http://i40.tinypic.com/2h5qlg8.png

you need to add this in your css template file

.spoilerbg {width:auto;height:auto;background:#e1e4f2;border:1px inset;padding:5px;}

the problem now, the Improved Spoiler Plugin doesnt build for nested spoiler like

the first spoiler will be broken, diffrent from vbulletin spoiler plugin

Noob + Fresh Install = Quirky, please advise

Published on April 5th, 2010 by

I installed a fresh version of bbpress 1.0 at http://forums.moochyschwag.com/

I made a new post. Then I replied to the post. Then the reply form disappeared and the reply I made isn’t showing. It’s showing in the ADMIN area, but not on the forum. Thoughts?
