I want to hook, et whatever, into the author id of a post to make my avatars plugin work with BBPress.
The docs just say it’s the same as WordPress, but not exactly. The tags are different and my original plugin doesn’t work anyway (or perhaps it’s an integration problem with my installs. I’m running MU).
I’m looking for equivalents like these or anything related
$the_author = get_the_author_id();
Where are the docs for the plugin API, basically? I don’t require you to look into what exact hooks, etc. I need, just lead me to info. If you want to do more, that’s fine, too. 
I really can’t find a smilies plugin. Does the Hiromasa work even though the site’s Chinese or Japanese? Like can you understand it and everything?
Hi,
We’re using bbPress 0.8.2.1 integrated with WordPress 2.1.3. Before upgrading to 0.8.2.1 everything was ok. But after upgrading, something has broken.
bbPress cannot count these values properly:
– Numbers of topic and the messages of a member in his profile. (For example, a member who had 6 pages of messages in his profile, has only 1 page now)
– Number of “topics with no replies, topics with no tags, unresolved topics” values are wrong. Each has less pages now.
– In admin panel, the number of members is not accurate. bbPress says there 714 members; but this value is 6109 (this is the correct one) in WordPress.
What can be the problem? I can tell the plugins we use, if necessary to solve the problem. Thanks!
I searched, but there were only similar problem and another (only similar) MU problem was not replied to.
I have an MU site I’m building and I installed BBPress for it. Everything’s fine except for this issue. I installed the three integration plugins, and I logged in to the forum with my WP info and it shows my display name.
But here’s the thing. (This is not a browser thing but I find it funny to note I can see both instances of the problem at the same time..) In Firefox I’m currently logged into the forum and not WordPress, in IE it’s the opposite. If I log in to WordPress, it doesn’t log me into the forum and vice versa.
I want to get rid of BBPress’s logging system altogether and especially the registration, because I don’t want to chance it that it won’t work for my MU, like I read in another thread.
Currently I know this will be very annoying to my users, and I don’t want that.
Any help? Thanks.
I’ve been working on updating a theme to be more ‘navigable’. I found the new_topic function could not be used when viewing a topic, so I modified the function to return a proper ‘Add New Topic’ link when called from a topic view (topic.php)
The code changes can be found in ticket 736:
https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/736
Here I added a ‘New Topic’ link in the topic meta section:

I currently have a phpbb board and I want to switch to wordpress/bbpress. I was wondering with the phpbb>bbpress script also move all my users over? Also when I integrate bbpress and wordpress will that also allow my users to keep their same username across all three installations?
Hello, I want to have an announcements forum but only allow the keymaster/admins and/or mods to be able to create topics in there but allow everyone to reply.
Is there a plugin that does this? Thanks.
Go ahead and try it and you’ll see:

Please let me know if I missed any decent themes available?

You can click on them to get a general idea what they look like in action. Themes reset back to default in three minutes (or use the theme switcher in the bottom right hand corner on any page).
Still needs a bug fix or two but I’ll release that as a “My Views” module along with the theme switcher probably this coming weekend.
Whew. That was a project and a half.
