Events plugin needed

Published on September 15th, 2009 by Navin

At the moment, I’m actually hardcoding the information for an event page, into a php file. It’s not the best solution ever, I knows.

I was hoping that someone here would want to code an events plugin.

Basically this is what I would like it to have or what I have in mind:

You browse to the section of the forums where it says “events”, you click create a new topic, then it will ask you to fill in the following fields:

Name of event

Date of event

Name of place

Address of place

Bands (since I run a music website)

Topic description

The output of this will be as you can see in the screenshot.

I hope you get a bit what I want as a plugin.

I know I can’t ask for a plugin to be made working for my own website only, perhaps some section can be made optional (the band section, that could be custom?), apart from that, I think this plugin will be beneficial to a lot of users.

I really need this plugin, if you like you can add me on your gtalk.

navin.poeran@gmail.com is my email.

How-to list new members / users

Published on September 15th, 2009 by David Wang

Hi, I’m working on a WordPress + bbPress site – see it in development at http://beta.delectable.com.my/forum/ – and I’d like to know how to display a list of the new members. Just something that says “Newest users in our forum” and a list of the member usernames. I would like to display this in the footer, not on a separate page. Thanks!

DB Error: cannot select

Published on September 15th, 2009 by InvTrdr

When I get past Step1 I keep getting this message that will not allow me to proceed to Step2. Any help? I am using GoDaddy for hosting and followed all the instructions. Am not using the same database as WP is using. Have created a new one for bbPress.

Why is this format replacement needed?

Published on September 15th, 2009 by Olaf Lederer

Hi,

I have some trouble with code posted without using backticks (i’m using a Geshi syntax plugin)

I noticed that the function “bb_autop” inside the file “functions.bb-formatting.php” adds new line characters before and after each html open/close tag (ul, li…). Responsible for this modification are these two rows:

$pee = preg_replace('!(<(?:ul|ol|li|blockquote|pre|p)[^>]*>)!', "n$1", $pee);
$pee = preg_replace('!(</(?:ul|ol|li|blockquote|pre|p)>)!', "$1n", $pee);

why is this replacement done?

Getting Error Message during install.

Published on September 15th, 2009 by InvTrdr

I am entering the database user name and password and am getting an error message saying “there was a problem connecting to the database, please check the settings”. I set up the database and password correctly but bbPress will not let me go further. What do I do?

Thank you.

Change my default url

Published on September 15th, 2009 by ppalayo

I’m a newbie with bbpress.

I just installed a new forum in a new folder “forum” and I want to know how to make some changes.

I want to change my url from http://my.site.com/forum/forum/my-topic to http://my.site.com/forum/my-topic

The default word after http://my.site.com/forum/ is “forum” can I change this?

I can’t find an option in permalinks.

Changing "add new" – simple php question

Published on September 15th, 2009 by nickaster

okay, so I figured out that “<?php bb_new_topic_link(); ?>” creates a hyperlink that says “add new >” linking to the place to start a new topic.

How can I customize that text? ie – what’s the php for just the link, so I can say:

<a href="THE LINK">something else<?a>

Simple PHP Question

Published on September 15th, 2009 by nickaster

So, I’m learning how to hack around these bbpress themes pretty nicely, but sometimes the php confounds me. For example, here’ some code from a basic front page:

<th><?php _e('Posts'); ?></th>
<th><?php _e('Last Poster'); ?></th>
<th><?php _e('Freshness'); ?></th>

Simple table headers, but what’s the point of the php? Why don’t I just slap the words in there exactly how I want it? Isn’t this just churning resources? Why wouldn’t I just do this:

<th>Posts</th>
<th>Last Poster</th>
<th>Freshness</th>

Thanks!
