Embeds Photos in user posts

Published on August 28th, 2008 by artcoder

Does bbPress have a rich text editor or an post entry where the user is able to embed a photo or graphic to their forum post? I’m looking for something where ideally, the user would be able to browse and pick out the photo from a file on their local disk, and up it goes to the post without needing to upload the photo in some photo share first.

Is there a way to get the current forum #?

Published on August 28th, 2008 by Ryan Markel

I’m working on some theme development for a bbpress installation, and it struck me that it would be really helpful if I could simply add to the #wrapper a class declaration like “forum-1” or the like that would identify the forum in a clear way for theming purposes.

(I have a need to theme each forum separately to match product web sites.)

Does anyone know if this is possible? I’ve spent a good amount of time digging through the functions, but I have to admit that I can’t figure it out and was wondering if anyone here had any ideas. I tried searching the forum to no avail.

Privacy Forum – is it really private?

Published on August 28th, 2008 by kannued

I came across these articles that says usernames and passwords do not necessarily mean privacy thanks to Google’s cache system. If you have the knowledge, these private areas are easy to hack. I’m wondering how bbpress’s privacy plugin stacks up against this hacking.

On a slightly related issue:

I have noticed that ALL profiles in any forum are public. If you keep sequencing then, you can see each person’s profile, which means even the spammers that are blocked can still be viewed with their websites, emails, and interests. This unintended promotion bothers me. If I start deleting the spammers profiles, I will just have a lot of work to do. The perfect world is that profiles that are approved should be the only ones available by sequencing.

about sessions

Published on August 28th, 2008 by

Hi,

i want to add simply sessions in my wordpress’s header (not the completed integration), how to that? like the phpbb session system ;)

bye!

integration??

Published on August 28th, 2008 by

What does this integration actually means?

Does it mean that if I install bbpress and wordpress, i can make posts to my forum trough wordpress – which again means I can use rss feeds for that, so a post on a rss feed would be a post on the forum?

Thanks

WPMU 2.6 + bbPress 1.0 alpha – Keymaster issue

Published on August 28th, 2008 by Tom Lynch

I am trying to integrate WPMU 2.6 and bbPress 1.0, it will let WordPress users login but the privileges don’t work, I end up having to delete the wordpress integration setting for table prefix to get the old bbpress users to work.

here’s how to fix Internet Explorer 8 messing up your design

Published on August 28th, 2008 by _ck_

This mini-plugin will fix your layout/graphics

for visitors that insist on using IE 8.0

function fix_ie8() {if (strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'],"MSIE 8")) {header("X-UA-Compatible: IE=7");}}
add_action('bb_send_headers','fix_ie8'); // for bbPress
add_action('send_headers','fix_ie8'); // for WordPress

Essentially it makes IE8 render like IE7 by sending a special (invisible) header only to IE8 users.

Problem solved.

It blows my mind that a page that can render perfectly in Opera – which is THE standards browser – can be messed up by Microsoft attempting to conform to standards. What a (continued) waste of everyone’s time.

ps. For those that don’t want to install IE8 permanently to just test their sites, this version will run in it’s own virtual box so it doesn’t affect the rest of your system:

Forum Connected to Personal Web Design Blog

Published on August 28th, 2008 by

It’s finished! I finally completed my layout for the bbPress that’s attached to my personal blog.

The layouts are synced – and when you’re in the forum the design is the same; thus making you feel like you’re still on the site. I’ve integrated forum search with the layout, a JavaScript “switch” button for hot tags and stats – and a few other fun little features.

Overall I’m very happy with the product – and thank you for all your time. I still have a few more forum tweaks, css issues, etc….but it’s progressing quickly.

I’m always open to constructive criticism, so let me know how I can improve!
