bb_mail for user registration

Published on April 15th, 2008 by

Hi all,

I’m using this in Japanese. When the user is registered, mail is garbled. It seems that it is because the mail body is submitted with raw UTF8 (not MIME-encode) also this is because of mail in Japanese(encoded iso-2022-jp) being provided as shown in RFC1468.(See http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1468.txt)

However, it is possible to display it even in Japanese with UTF8 normally by doing appropriate treatment.

1. Add Content-Type header and etc.

$headers[] = “MIME-Version: 1.0”;

$headers[] = “Content-Type: text/plain; Charset=UTF-8”;

$headers[] = “Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit”;

2. MIME encodes the header.

use mb_encode_mimeheader().

key master only forum

I’m using bbpress for my online class and I would like to create a forum that only I or a moderator can post to, and the students (members) can view only.

I’ve seen plug-ins to make forums private, but that’s not exactly what I need. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Plug In Needed — Only Active Members Can Post URLs

Published on April 15th, 2008 by

I am switching my board from phpbb to bbpress and am very worried about porn spamming robots that register and post urls to porn sites.

In phpbb, there is a mod that didn’t stop the registration, but was COMPLETELY EFFECTIVE in stopping the posting of porn sites. It simply would not allow brand-new members to post URLs.

Is anyone capable of writing such a plug in for bbpress?

Here’s a link to the phpbb mod —

Duplicate Messages Tab in Private Message Plugin

Published on April 15th, 2008 by Daniel Quinn

I have the Private Messages plugin and the Avatar plugin both installed, and whenever I click on the Avatar tab in user profiles, I get two Messages tabs. I added the function suggested in the PM plugin forum:

function add_pm_tab()

{

global $user_id;

global $self;

if (bb_get_current_user_info( ‘id’ ) == $user_id) {

add_profile_tab(__(‘Messages’), ‘edit_profile’, ”, ‘pm.php’);

}

}

add_action( ‘bb_profile_menu’, ‘add_pm_tab’ );

bb_add_filter(‘get_bb_location’, ‘get_mess_bb_location’);

bb_add_filter(‘get_bb_location’, ‘get_pm_bb_location’);

To display the PM message tab on the users’ profiles. Any idea what’s causing the tab to duplicate? It only happens when users click on the Avatar tab in their profile.

Shoutbox

Is there any shoutbox plug-in for BBpress? I’m looking for something simple to use for registered users, with simple managment (edit, delete), maybe something ajax-powered :).

Best Way to Add Posts, Topics and Users from Old Forum?

Published on April 15th, 2008 by citizenkeith

From 1998-2003, I ran a forum using the Network54 website. These forums were horrendous. There wasn’t any user database… people just wrote their posts then filled in their name and an optional email address. (It’s amazing I didn’t get any spam during that five year period.)

My goal is to get all these posts into bbPress.

I was unable to spider the forum. Network54’s server kicked in and blocked all attempts using Spiderzilla.

Here’s the forum:

http://www.network54.com/Forum/3752/

Instead this is what I’ve done: There are 53 pages of posts. Some of them are threaded, some are not. On each page, there’s a “View All Messages” link that will show you all of that’s page’s posts and threads on one single HTML page. Each thread is separated with an HR tag.

I downloaded each of these 53 “View All” pages. I just spent 20 minutes cleaning up the code from Page 1, and I’m left with a fairly lean page. Here’s what I got for page 1:

http://www.judyhenskefan.com/viewall-page-1.htm

I will continue doing this for all 53 pages. Then I would like to separate out all the topics and posts, and put it into an “Archive” forum in my bbPress install. I’m trying to determine the best way of doing this…

For one, a lot of the users are not registered on the current forum. Some are, but used slightly different names. Some people never entered their optional email address at the Network54 forum, so I don’t have a way to put everybody into a user account. I could match up a bunch of them, but not all of them.

How would you proceed, if you were me?

Install doesn’t work with bbPress on WordPress 2.5 site

Published on April 15th, 2008 by psheerin

I’ve uploaded the bbPress files to example.com/forum/ and WordPress 2.5 is installed in example.com/WordPress/ with the actual public blog up one level at example.com/

When I go visit example.com/forum/ or even example.com/forum/admin/install.php all I get is a blank post from the WP site that reads “Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.”

What do I need to change in order to make the installation run?

WordPress created this .htaccess file and placed it in webroot, and I’m guessing this is the problem:

# BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Have I modified this right? (WP-bbPress)

Published on April 14th, 2008 by

Hi,

I added a bbPress forum to my WP 2.5 Blog and being that I didn’t want users to either login nor register from the forum section, I modified the template’s header.php file to comment out <?php login_form(); ?>.

If there’s another way of doing this, let me know.

Thanks,

Gene

SMTP Plugin request

Published on April 14th, 2008 by phreakymonkey

My host has disabled sendmail (because they like to make things a pain in the ass for everyone, apparently), so I have to find workarounds for everything I have installed. This plugin for WP has saved my bacon for my main site, but I haven’t found a solution for bbPress and my php fu is weak.
