Extending the Private Forums Plugin

Published on October 30th, 2007 by

This is not a plugin just a quick hack to Aditya Naik ’s popular private forums plugin.

If, like me, you need to add some private forums in your BBPress setup but you don’t want to make those users moderators or administrators then here is how to add a custom role

bbPress post 0.05

Published on October 30th, 2007 by mbyte

Hi all.

After a long delay I continue work on my bbPress post plugin. Now is a 5 version of plugin is available. It works with WP 2.3 and up (for older version you can download older plugin), supporting tags, manual link function calling, connecting to other DB (if bbPress installed on other db).

You can download plugin here.

Has anyone created a hack that allows the community to moderate its own comments and posts (possibly the whole community?)?

Removing Profile Fields

Published on October 29th, 2007 by

Is there any way to change the fields in the profile? For example, if I wanted to remove the “Interests” field, would that be possible from the theme?

In looking around these forums for an answer I see there is a plug-in for customizing the profile, but I wondered whether there is a simple theme-based solution.

Thanks.

Changing the title of a view

Published on October 28th, 2007 by

Is there a simple way (i.e. not involving a plug-in) to change the title of a view? For example, if I wanted the view “Topics with no replies” to say “Threads with no replies”, how can I do this?

I do see that the views are set up in default-filters.php, so I guess I’m asking whether there is an easy way to override these view definitions using code in the theme.

Thanks.

Using bbPress Functions in WordPress

Published on October 28th, 2007 by

I want to have one universal sidebar in my website for both WP and BB, but I can’t because I need a few BB Functions for it, particularly login_forms(). Is there a way to use login_forms() in WP?

Show login name

I want to be able to show the currently logged in user’s avatar with Avatar Upload as well as use Display Names. I cannot find a way to use the two the way I want to yet…

Does anyone have a method?

Disable posting and registration

Published on October 27th, 2007 by jazbek

Hi,

I am about to migrate my current bbpress site over to a new server and would like to freeze posting and registration so that the databases don’t get out of sync. I don’t really want to take the whole forum offline, though.. I’d like visitors to still be able to read through the existing posts. Does anyone know of a quick way to do this?

TIA :)

MU WordPress BBPress Integration with Nginx Rewrites

Published on October 27th, 2007 by honewatson

I set up an integrated BBPress and MU WordPress on Nginx. There may be a better way of doing the rewrites but these work well for me.

Here are the BBPress Nginx rewrites:

location /forums/ {

root /home/YOURDIRECTORY/public_html/forums;

index index.php;

if (!-e $request_filename) {

rewrite ^/forums/topic/(.*)$ /forums/topic.php?q=$1 last;

rewrite ^/forums/forum/(.*)$ /forums/forum.php?q=$1 last;

rewrite ^/forums/profile/(.*)$ /forums/profile.php?q=$1 last;

rewrite ^/forums/view/(.*)$ /forums/view.php?q=$1 last;

rewrite ^/forums/tags/(.*)$ /forums/tags.php?q=$1 last;

rewrite ^/forums/rss/(.*)$ /forums/rss.php?q=$1 last;

rewrite ^/forums/bb-admin/ /forums/bb-admin/index.php last;

rewrite ^/forums/ /forums/index.php last;

break;

}

}
