Detecting whether a post is the first in a topic

Published on May 6th, 2008 by

I want to format the first post differently to the rest in a thread. How do I detect whether the post currently being displayed using “post_text()” is the first one?

Thanks.

bb-twitter – a Twitter plugin

Published on May 5th, 2008 by Bloggsbe

Hi!

I made a small plugin that lets users show of their latest Tweet on their profile page. The user turns the option on or off as they please.

It’s nothing fancy, but it works.

You can download it here

It has been tested with bbPress 0.9.0.2 and 1.0-dev, but should work on earlier versions.

User languages?

Published on May 5th, 2008 by

bbPress has many translations, but AFAICT only one may be active at a time, set through $BBLANG

Am I wrong about this?

Assuming I’m not wrong…

It would be nice to enable users to select a language (or have it set for them through content negotiation).

Perhaps this could be done via a plugin a la https://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/user-timezones/

Link to forum from WordPress

Published on May 5th, 2008 by

Hi,

I just installed bbPress and have it sharing settings with my pre-existing WordPress installation. Everything is great, but I can’t figure out how to add a link form my WordPress to the forums. Is there some easy way that I am overlooking? How about a sidebar widget for WordPress that displays something?

I’ve been looking around this site, but I am confused about the plugins because I am never sure if they are for bbPress only or WordPress and there is nothing on the WordPress extension site.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Ted

Profile hook/filter

Published on May 5th, 2008 by Bloggsbe

Hi!

I’m working on a plugin that I want to show some info on the profile page. The only hook I’ve found that lets me do that is get_profile_info_keys, but that puts the info on top of the profile page (seems like it does it before the header) and where I actually want it.

Anyone have any ideas on what I can use to get my “stuff” in the profile page?

Regards,

Rune

Cookies login issue with WPMU

Published on May 5th, 2008 by chilledfresh

I’ve been running into cookies issues while trying to integrate bbPress into my existing WPMU site. My WPMU and bbPress installs are located in separate directories on my server (/blogs and /youngadults/forums).

bbPress is currently setup so that when users log into the forums, they are automatically logged into WPMU as well. However, for some reason this is not working the other way around – if I log into WPMU first, I am not logged into bbPress.

Does anyone know of a way to log into bbPress when going through the WPMU login?

I am using the MD5 Insecurity and Mouldy Old Cookies plugins, along with this snippet of code in the bb-config.php file:

$bb->usercookie = ‘wordpressuser’;

$bb->passcookie = ‘wordpresspass’;

How to manually change bbPress url cause I screwed up

Published on May 5th, 2008 by Fawked

I installed the latest bbPress. Everything went well. Then I decided to be an idiot and changed the bbPress url in the options page to my main site because when I clicked on my site name I wanted it to redirect back to my main site (the site name beside the bbPress logo).

I tried to re-install bbPress but it wont go past after installing bb-config.php

My main site is : www.fawked.net

My forum is : www.fawked.net/forum

Please tell me what file (or perhaps what line in my database)? to edit. I need to change my bbPress url back to www.fawked.net/forum

Thanks in advance

Help?

Can’t get bbpress to install

Published on May 5th, 2008 by

I have had bbpress working on my doteasy account, and I decided to reinstall it – probably shouldn’t have :( When I contacted them, they informed me that they would try running the script and installing it…and I got this message back

“Hello Antonio,

This script appears to be incompatible with our hosting servers. Please try using a different script.”

“The database failed to install. You may need to replace bbPress with a fresh copy and start again.”

Now here is what happens when I try to install the script.

Your site settings have been saved and we are now ready to complete the installation. So what are you waiting for?

Then when I proceed to the final step I get this error.

“Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, advancedsupport@doteasy.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.”

At this point, if I refresh the page it goes back to the installer and I get this message ” bbPress Installation

Welcome to the bbPress installer

Step 1 – Database configuration

« completed

Step 2 – WordPress integration (optional)

« skipped

Step 3 – Site settings

Installation complete!

Show installation messages: “

If I then go back to atriskstoriesofhope.com/bbpress it wants to go back through the installation. What should I do?
