letter limit on user names

Published on August 18th, 2008 by RossB

Can a letter limit be set for forum user names (say, 16 letters) to prevent people choosing very long user names?

Cheers

If it can be done, how would I go about password protecting a forum? I want to have the main website open to the public, but the forum to require a password before someone can register and see the forum posts.

Quick SQL question

Published on August 17th, 2008 by holloway

I’m running Alpha 1.0 and recently had to ask for support. I get the feeling I did something wrong before I did the solution as I now have an issue where I APPEAR to have permission to access admin panel and to post, but clicking on the links just sends me to the board index.

I’ve reinstalled the BBPress files and deleted the ‘bb_’ tables in the sql however this issue remains in this new installation. I’m integrated with WP, therefore I was wondering if someone could list the rows added to the WordPress sql by the bbpress integration process so that I could try removing them.

Add mp3 player in a post

Published on August 17th, 2008 by

Holé,

i want to add the possibilty to insert a player for play mp3 songs, with that: http://www.alsacreations.fr/dewplayer

so, i have try this:

<?php
/*
Plugin Name: bbPress MP3 Dewplayer

Description: A simple way to add a mp3 player in posts, with bbcode.

Author: Frédéric

Author URI: https://bbpress.org/

Version: 0.1
*/
add_filter( 'bb_allowed_tags', 'allow_mp3_tag' );
function allow_mp3_tag( $tags ) {$tags['mp3']; return $tags;}
?>

to have a simply “mp3” bbcode (i use BBcode Buttons Toolbar and BBcode Lite).

the html code for integrate the player is:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="dewplayer.swf?mp3={LOCATION OF MP3}&showtime=1" width="200" height="20"><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="dewplayer.swf?mp3={LOCATION OF MP3}&showtime=1" /></object>

but how to integrate that in php code of plugin?

at the end, i want that the members can post that:

[mp3]URL OF THE MP3 FILE[/mp3]

so, i have add that in bbcode-buttons.js:

function edClick(button) {

switch (BBcodeButtons[button].id) {

case 'ed_close': edCloseAllTags(button); break;

case 'ed_link': edInsertLink(button); break;

case 'ed_img': edInsertImage(button); break;
case 'ed_mp3': edInsertMp3(button); break;

default: edInsertTag(button); break;

}

}

and

function edInsertMp3() {

var myValue = prompt('Enter the URL of the mp3 file', 'http://');

if (myValue) {

myValue = '[mp3]'+ myValue+'[/mp3]';

edInsertContent(myValue);

}

}

but this is incomplete, what add in the bbcode-lite.php and my file plugin?

please help me to finish the plugin :p

Bye

WPMU 2.6 and Alpha 1.0

Published on August 17th, 2008 by

I am getting the following in the error when I go to edit a user profile. It is right in the administration section.

Warning: array_key_exists(): The second argument should be either an array or an object in /home/content/html/community/bb-includes/template-functions.php on line 1799

Also in the user type it says the same thing but the line number is 1811

Any help would be appreciated.

Integrating bbPress into other systems

Published on August 15th, 2008 by

I’d like to add a comment system to MediaWiki using bbPress as the backend.

I imagine it’d work like the following:

1. each mediawiki creates a bbpress topic in a specific forum

2. if logged in, users can comment from the mediawiki page.

anyone have any clues to this? is bbsync the closest system to this at the moment?

bbPress Tags in 1.0 alpha

Published on August 15th, 2008 by

Are tags expected to be working on the 1.0 alpha code?

I am playing around with the system, and it it appears as if tags are not being displayed. the bb_tag_heat_map() is displaying nothing, bb_get_top_tags() is returning an empty array. Individual posts don’t show tags either.

I am assuming this is related to the new taxonomy code… not sure if I did the upgrade incorrectly or what. When I logged into the admin system the first time, it did do a DB upgrade.

Install problem – Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated;

Published on August 15th, 2008 by joelteixeira

Everything works on a localhost install, but when I try install on dreamhost I get the following error:

Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of [runtime function name](). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file in /bb-includes/backpress/functions.core.php on line 499

The message stays on the top of page, above header, seems that I can use everything but the message stays there. How can I get ride of this.
