bbPress 0.8.3.1 released

Published on January 4th, 2008 by Trent Adams

From Sam’s Post on the main bbPress blog:

Due to popular demand we have bundled a bug-fix release for bbPress. 0.8.3.1 (still called “Desmond” I believe) and it is now available for download.

This version is not the latest development release so as to remain as compatible as possible with the current version of WordPress.

The primary reason for the release is to fix some bugs in the MySQLi implementation. We anticipate that MySQLi support will be dropped in the future and to this end we have made MySQL the default extension instead of MySQLi.

A few other fixes and enhancements have also snuck in:

  • Deep forum breadcrumbs with thanks to baptiste
  • More consistent topic labeling methods – users of the support forum plugin will probably need to upgrade to version 2.3.3
  • Some fixes to stop orphaned sub-forums from disappearing from all view
  • There is now one of those fancy checkboxes to mark a user as a bozo

A couple of those changes will affect existing themes. If you have questions about adapting your theme to be compatible with the new topic labeling and forum breadcrumb features, then ask over on this forum topic.

Making your theme compatible with 0.8.3.1

Published on January 4th, 2008 by Sam Bauers

Here you can post any questions about the new “forum breadcrumb” and “topic label” template functions introduced in version 0.8.3.1

For starters, the best thing to do is just look at the way Kakumei was changed.

Attachments / File Uploads Plugin

Published on January 3rd, 2008 by

I’ve been looking for a file upload / attachment plugin but have so far been unable to find one. Does anybody have one, released publicly or privately?

I’d be happy to hack my way around, I just don’t really want to write it from scratch if I don’t have to.

How to integrate Mandigo theme in bbPress?

Published on January 1st, 2008 by misterfunk74

Hi, someone knows if (and how…) is it possible to integrate the wonderful Mandigo theme (http://www.onehertz.com/portfolio/wordpress/mandigo) in bbPress? For my site www.raccontidiviaggi.com (still working in progress…) I use Mandigo theme, I made the integration using the same database, but now I want to have the same theme also for the forum, which (as you can see here: http://raccontidiviaggi.com/forum-dei-viaggiatori) looks different. The problem is that it is a highly customizable theme, and apparently it’s not so easy as simply copy/paste the header… Someone can help me?

Thank you

Filippo

What Spam prevention techniques are you using?

Published on January 1st, 2008 by Simon99

Just curious, both in terms of registration, and posting…

I only have a small test forum up, that is integrated with my personal blog, but I was experimenting with a few ideas earlier. I go by the philosophy that layers of protection is always the way to go.

So far I’ve implemented:

1.) Visual check, pre reg form (eg. select the hamster image)

2.) Blacklisting popular spam email domains (eg. mail.ru)

3.) Hidden field trap (no javascript, just css)

4.) Maths puzzle question

5.) TanTan Spam Filter port

6.) Askimet (obviously!)

The first 4 are aimed at blocking spam bot registrations, and the final 2 at keeping posts clean. All the registration checks are core hacks (as I’m only experimenting).

Any other techniques being used successfully to ward off spammers from bbpress? Maybe something like implementing ‘Bad Behavior’ filtering for the registration process for example?

PS. Happy New Year to all!

How to do this?

some problem with code in postings

Published on December 31st, 2007 by Olaf Lederer

Hi,

according this post form I have to put code between “Backticks”.

This will not work (at least on my website), if I use the backticks most from the post will disappear. To show code I use the “code” html element, this works fine until I edit the post after submission. bbpress will replace the code tags with backticks.

Is this a bug or a php limit? (I remember me somthing with the backticks and php)

Experimenting with bb-cache

Published on December 31st, 2007 by Simon99

I’ve recently enabled the hard cache, to see how it handles on a test forum with only a few users. The first problem I’ve come across has been an error with $bb_cache->get_forums() – the array it was returning when cached was 0, instead of containing the forum ids.

I fixed it by a simple reversal of the sections of code within the get_forums() function in cache.php:

$forums = (array) $bbdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $bbdb->forums $where ORDER BY forum_order");
if ( $this->use_cache && $normal && $forums )
$this->write_cache(BBPATH . 'bb-cache/bb_forums', $forums);

$_forums = array();
foreach ( $forums as $forum )
$_forums[(int) $forum->forum_id] = $bb_forum_cache[(int) $forum->forum_id] = $forum;

After reversing them (the above are their original positions), I then made sure the write cache line was using $_forums, instead of $forums.

No idea if this may have other consequences I’ve yet to unearth, but I thought it may be worth noting here.

I’ve also used the “load all options” function from wordpress as a basis for creating a global array containing all topicmeta options. By default (even with cache enabled, although maybe I’ve missed a setting), there were several calls to to topicmeta, whereas only one was really required.
