Admin Can Post Anything (and Moderators too?)

Published on April 23rd, 2009 by Filipe Deschamps

Admin Can Post Anything, from _CK_ is a great plugin and works perfectly in the latest stable version of bbPress.

Is there anyway to make both Administrator and Moderator able to insert html content?

Best regards,

diagnosing sql connections spike

Published on April 23rd, 2009 by

hi all,

i’ve been running a small private bbpress forum for about 6 months now. overall things have been working quite smoothly. we have one persistent problem though; our sql connections occasionally spike and max out giving us the “oh dear” page until things settle down. until a few weeks ago i was blaming our host, but now that i’ve been monitoring the server with ‘mysql administrator’ i can see that it’s the connections that are the problem. usually we’ll be running just fine at about 10-20% connection capacity and then wham, spike to 90-100% and down we go for a few minutes (occasionally more).

how can i figure out what’s causing these spikes? any help would be greatly appreciated.

How do you submit a plugin?

Published on April 23rd, 2009 by iDope

I would like to submit an anti-spam plugin I have made for bbPress. How do I submit it to the bbPress plugins browser? There seems to be no info on this either on the site or in the forums.

Single Install, Multiple Sites?

Published on April 22nd, 2009 by tgiokdi

I’m using a nice hack for wordpress that lets me install wordpress once, and have multiple urls use those files, so when updating day comes, there’s a single update to be done. Is this possible with bbpress? If so, would anyone like to share how to? I’d be willing to test

Deleting the ability to Add Topic

Published on April 22nd, 2009 by cnymike

I have installed bbpress for a client who does not want users to be able to add a topic.

Although I would like to see that as an option in settings, it is not, so I guess I have to get my hands dirty in the php files. OK fine.

So I’ve found and commented out the code in the forum.php and front-page.php files which contains the link to add a topic as so….

‘ <th><?php _e(‘Topic’); ?> <!–—–> <?php // new_topic(); ?></th>’

But to my dismay, I also see that a user can add a topic when they click on a Forum “Main Theme” title. The page they are taken to has a huge “New Topic in this Forum” area. I don’t want that and can’t quite figure out what file and what code I need to delete to get rid of that.

Help please?

what is forum_id?

Published on April 22nd, 2009 by

Hello,

I’ve noticed I have some queries that are performing slowly:

SELECT t.* FROM bb_topics AS t WHERE t.topic_status = ‘0’ AND t.topic_sticky = ‘2’ ORDER BY t.topic_time DESC LIMIT 30

The index the db is using is forum_stickies which is a composite index of (topic_status, forum_id, topic_sticky, topic_time)

THe problem is since the query thats created doesn’t include forum_id, mysql is not able to utilize the composite index completely and performs an additional filesort which slows the performance of the query.

To fix this, I can either create a new index that doesn’t include the forum_id field OR somehow force the code to include the forum_id conditional in the query. I only have one forum and I only plan on having one forum per a database.

I can hack the code, but I suspect there is a setting somewhere that can fix this issue. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Problem with Forum

Published on April 22nd, 2009 by

Hi I have a problem in that my forum has shut down and I cannot access. I installed Indicate New Posts and It shut down the Forum. Can someone assist me getting it back up.

I also cannot get the avatar/photo or bbdiscussion plugins to work of the Forum. Is there someone that can assist me with this as well.

The error message is as follows:

/home/content/a/l/e/alexander9999/html/forums/bb-plugins/indicate-new-posts/fel_newposts.php on line 16

Viewed Threads vs. unviewed

Published on April 21st, 2009 by Clicknathan

Does anyone know how I might display viewed threads differently from unviewed?

For example, if I’m a user visiting my forum and I view a thread, maybe the link would then be a different color. I can do this with CSS obviously, but it’d be great if the thread was updated (ie, a new reply posted), that then the thread would change back.

Any ideas? I’m just looking for an indicator to show people what they’ve read or what’s new.

Some simple questions of bbPress

Published on April 21st, 2009 by adv_user

1) How to view the hot topics (with more messages)?

2) In the list of forums and topics, such as identifying the last record of the page and add div class=”last”?

3) In the list of recent topics, how show the forum this topic?

Sorry if questions are very simple, but admit that the documentation of bbPress does not seem as complete as the documentation of the WP:

https://bbpress.org/documentation/

Thanks!
