Searching forums for my past posts

Published on September 16th, 2008 by RossB

Just wondering if there’s any way to search the forum via my user name. I would like to locate all past posts and the great advice I received, and collate it.

so, when (approx.) can we expect the stable version of bbPress 1.0?

Can’t see posts if not logged in

Published on September 15th, 2008 by Clicknathan

For some reason I can’t see posts on our forums if I’m not logged in: http://bike-pgh.org/bbpress/topic/yippey-cay-yay

When logged in, the forums are visible, when not logged in, you can’t see the actual posts.

I checked in the settings but am not able to find anything that says “Hide from users who are not logged in” or anything.

BBPress Version 0.9.0.2

Anyone have any ideas?

Displaying a small snippet of the most recent post

Published on September 15th, 2008 by Clicknathan

Would anyone perhaps know how I might display a small snippet of the most recent post in a forum under that forum’s title on the front page? So, my front page might look like:

My Forum

Here is a bit of text from the most recent post in this forum

Another of my Forums

And here is some text from this forum’s most recent post

Etc, etc.

Default to the last page of a thread instead of the first

Published on September 15th, 2008 by Clicknathan

Would anyone know of a way to show the last page of a thread by default instead of the first?

For example, if a thread has 3 pages worth of posts, we want to by default show page #3 rather than #1.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Permalinks Not working

Published on September 15th, 2008 by

Hello.

I installed bbpress forum (0.9) on wp 2.6. Everything went smooth till even adding forums etc etc.

But when I post the permalinks / links do not work. It says page not found.

You can see the installation here http://headstart.in/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/

Please help me out at the earliest. Really critical!

Who is REALLY online

Published on September 15th, 2008 by

Is there a way to have a real time list of who is online rather than having a list of people who logged in over the past 5 mins.

This way is not really working for me as no one stays on the list for over 5 mins.

Integrated WP Installation – Can’t Login

Published on September 14th, 2008 by

Hi there.

I just installed bbPress 0.9.0.2 and integrated it with my WP 2.6.2.

I also added WordPress functions via require_once in bb-config.php so I can utilize my blog’s header and footer for the forum.

Now everything looks the way I want it, but I just can’t login to a bbPress account anymore (direct login via bbPress interface). When I enter wrong login data, it takes me to the failed login screen as expected. When I enter the right login data it will just return me to a blank login form.

Is this the reason why bbPress 0.9.0.2 shouldn’t be intergrated with WordPress 2.6 and I need to try bbPress 1.0 Alpha instead?

Or should I still be able to login via the bbPress interface, just not synchronized via WP, and the problem is located elsewhere?

Thanks a bunch

Lars

Fulltext searching very slow

Published on September 13th, 2008 by Mark Barnes

I have a large forum, and full-text searching is very slow. Looking at the slow queries log, 30-45 seconds seems about ‘normal’. Any suggestions about what could be done? tina.nl (which is bigger than mine has an almost instant search response)

Forum listing on the side

Published on September 13th, 2008 by

I am trying to have the forum lists on the side, I was able to put it on the side but it’s not displaying any post or topic count. I want it to look like this site: http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/

The first 22 lines of my front-page.php:

<?php bb_get_header(); ?>

<?php if ( $forums ) : ?>

<div id=”hottags”>

<table id=”forumlist”>

<tr>

<th><?php _e(‘Forum’); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Topics’); ?></th>

<th><?php _e(‘Posts’); ?></th>

</tr>

<?php while ( bb_forum() ) : ?>

<tr<?php bb_forum_class(); ?>>

<td><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘<div class=”nest”>’ ); ?>“><?php forum_name(); ?><small><?php forum_description(); ?></small><?php bb_forum_pad( ‘</div>’ ); ?></td>

<td class=”num”><?php forum_topics(); ?></td>

<td class=”num”><?php forum_posts(); ?></td>

</tr>

<?php endwhile; ?>

</table>

</div>

Thanks for any help.
