Username

Published on March 16th, 2010 by

Hello,

I want to know the name of the User that is logged in (the name that he is registered, so not viewed on the forum. Most of the time, people change there name to look it better for forum post’s and comments. But i want the real name.)

So not bb_get_current_user_info(‘name’); because then i get the name dat is displayed on the site.

Another thing is: Is there a plugin, or trick to let WordPress and BBPress more cooperate between them? Because, if i know logged in on wordpress, is must do exactly the same thing on bbpress. But i want logged in on wordpress and in the same time logged in in bbpress too. So then i don’t need to login twice on the same website.

Thanks,

Leander

Ping Gautam: Revisiting bb-attachments

Published on March 16th, 2010 by Steven Hodson

I realize you (and others) have tried in the past o help with this but circumstances have changed since then which leads to a couple of new problems.

My host installed a brand spanking new quad xeon Linux server to take care of WP customers such as myself. As a result after getting everything moved over I decided to retry the bb-attachment plugin as this is one feature my members really want.

The good noews is that the upload now works great – the files go where they are suppose to http://screencast.com/t/OWRkYzFiM

and they get entered into the database correctly http://screencast.com/t/MzQzMTI0OG

The problems start now on the display and download.

TXT files are no problem as they download just fine.

PDF files display the icon correctly but when downloaded the files are corrupted

Images have two problems.

1. they don’t display as they are suppose to within the post.

2. as with the PDFs the images are also corrupted when downloaded.

Any suggestions of things to try would be greatly appreciated

Oh and the forums URL is http://www.winextra.com/forums/ and you can catch me in the #bbPress IRC channel most times

Thanks in advance

compare WordPress tags to BBpress tags. Relevant posts.

Published on March 15th, 2010 by jdrancor

Hi, I’m trying to list topics from the forum in a WP post. I’m wanting to just show the topics that have the same tags as the particular post that is being viewed.

This is basically a display relevant posts. How can this be done? I’ve tried a bunch of PHP, but I’m not having luck navigating the codex between the two databases. I’ve mucked around alot, but I can’t get beyond the basic display the last 10 posts functionality.

Here’s where I’m at: HELP?

<?php

global $wpdb;

$query=”SELECT * FROM bb_topics WHERE topic_status=0 ORDER BY topic_time DESC LIMIT 10″;

$results=$wpdb->get_results($query);

foreach ($results as $result) {echo “

  • topic_id.”‘>”.$result->topic_title.”
  • “;}

    ?>

    Problem upgrading from 0.904 to 1.0

    Published on March 15th, 2010 by inerxia

    I follow all the instructions from here:

    https://bbpress.org/documentation/upgrading/

    And get this mesage:

    “An invalid configuration file was found at bb-config.php

    The installation cannot continue.

    Usually this is caused by one of the database connection settings being incorrect. Make sure that the specified user has appropriate permission to access the database.”

    I tried with the old bb-config.php and entering the data base info ito the new one and nothing.

    Thanks

    Welcome Note should be hide after login

    Published on March 15th, 2010 by pagal

    Hi to all,

    I’m wondering to solve my problem but I haven’t find any solution yet. I hope I’ll got it from bbpress support forums.

    My problem is

    I have mentioned a notice right above the topics. like Micheal’s forums “http://www.inniosoft.co.cc/devstation/”

    i.e.

    “””””Dev:station is a community-driven forum where developers, beginner and expert alike, can discuss software and website development, share ideas, explore other ideas, compete with other members, and share news and/or tutorials. Dev:station is the place to learn new things everyday.”””””

    so when I login into his forums, then this notice goes hide. I want exact like this.

    But in case of my forums. when I login to my forums this still remain there.

    can anybody tell me what to do?

    Note: Micheal is not willing to solve any issue of bbpress.

    Regards,

    Pagal

    custom header file locations

    Published on March 13th, 2010 by brucini

    hi

    i’m using mysty theme

    I need to change the upload dimensions for the new header image under the custom header function in Appearance

    presently images are cropped to 760 x 200 px when i upload the custom header

    i’ve recently widened the template to reflect 880 x 200 for the header image

    as you can see here http://theblackkeysfanlounge.com, i need to upload the header image as 880 x 200 px to fill the available space

    So, I can’t find where in the files I can alter theme to change the upload dimensions. Does anyone know where and how to make this change?

    thanks in advance

    cheers
