Is there a new version of bbpress due soon to support the new version of WP? Prefer to wait if poss.

By popular request here is “The Hybrid”

demo:

Essentially it’s a mash-up between the bbPress support forum theme here and Kakumei, with a few tweaks.

Requires the Topic Views plugin to be installed.

It’s older work and not as pretty as “FutureKind” (I won’t be releasing that one this year) and you can forget about “validation” unless you want to work on it quite a bit yourself, but it’s a nice alternative to the defaults.

Let me know if you get any errors or other problems.

I’ll try to fix it up some more as I have time.

In bb-includes/class-phpass.php on line 43, bbpress uses getmypid() to create the randomstate for password hashes.

On shared hosting systems, getmypid() is disabled very often.

I replaced it with uniqid(), and bbpress didnt throw the WARNING anymore.

getmypid() does not return a unique value in all cases. Especiall when PHP is running as an apache module in shared hosting sytems. Also for this reason its much better to use uniqid().

uniqid() gives a 13 digits value. uniqid(”, true) even 23 digits. I think this should be good enough for the randomstate.

Please consider to use uniqid() in future versions of bbpress.

thx for your attention

Hello,

does anyone know how to show the gravatars of the Latest and Original poster on the front page, if so what/where would be the parameters for there dimensions of the image.

I just need to show a 50×50 gravatar of the latest poster on the front page next to the username of the latest poster in the “Latest Poster” column of each topic.

AND

A 50×50 gravatar of the original poster and the username of the original poster right next to the link of the topic, on each row.

Note: http://emptees.com/talk – has a similar thing to what i need, they have the author post avatar on there front page.

Thanks for any help

Hi – I’m trying to integrate bbPress with the rest of my site and I’m finding that all of the redirects are causing me problems. I need the pages to return directly without redirecting to show new content.

Does anyone have expertise in this area? I would greatly appreciate a few hours of help and I could even do it as a paid consulting gig given the short notice.

Thanks

Is there any way to just show a login link on the registration page instead of showing the login form? It’s kind of confusing to show the login form when someone is filling out the registration page.

I would like to edit the design and text of when you log in to bbPress, which says “Welcome, username! Logout.” Where do I edit this? Thanks.

How do I remove some of the fields that are on the registration form? I’m using bbPress for a support forum and it doesn’t make sense to ask people things like their occupation and interests.

I don’t really care if there’s not a plugin to do it (although that’d be nice), but I just can’t find where the profile_info_keys are so that I can edit them.

Hi … my problem is that the search function does not find any user names when the user have not posted yet. Is it possible to modify the search function that I can get an positive result?

Thank you for your help – anywhen
