How to link to favorites of logged user

Published on July 27th, 2007 by vlp

Hi,

I would like to implement the favorites link for logged user on front-page, forum pages and topic pages.

I tried several ways, but without success.

It would be a lot easier for user to find his favorites on front-page like looking for it on profile (useless click).

Anybody figure it out? Would it be possible?

Plugins SVN Problem

Published on July 27th, 2007 by LMD

There appears to be a problem with the SVN for plugins.

I’ve had a user who downloaded the latest version of Avatar Upload, only to find the contents of sub-folders to be empty — even though the files are present in the repository when I browsed source in Trac (in both the Trunk AND latest Tag). Somehow they are missing in the automated ZIP download.

The file structure is:

trunk/ (and also 'tags/0.7/')
additional-files/
avatars/ (contents missing in the ZIP)
my-templates/ (ditto)
.

Is this a one-off blip or is it a bug? Either way, can it be fixed?

How can I remove the php delay when users are emailed

Published on July 27th, 2007 by _ck_

I’ve noticed with certain plugins that email users, like favorites notification and others, that PHP will sit and wait until it gets a response back from the mail function.

Is there any kind of drop in replacement for mail() that will just queue the email and come back to php and load the rest of the page asap?

Help with WP BBPress integration install

Published on July 27th, 2007 by

I have a WP install with BBPress installed on the same database in a subdirectory of WP. Install went well, looked in the database and my new forum topic was written in the database but all links on the BBPress forum lead to “No input file specified”. I’m suspecting that it has something to do with the config file. Let me know if you see something wrong here:

// Change the prefix if you want to have multiple forums in a single database.

$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please!

// The full URL of your bbPress install

$bb->uri = ‘http://theasianman.com/wordpress/bbpress’;

// What are you going to call me?

$bb->name = ‘The Asian Man Forum’;

// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks, set to ‘slugs’ if you want to use slug based pretty permalinks.

$bb->mod_rewrite = false;

// Your Akismet Key. You do not need a key to run bbPress, but if you want to take advantage

// of Akismet’s powerful spam blocking, you’ll need one. You can get an Akismet key at

// http://wordpress.com/api-keys/

$bb->akismet_key = ”; // Example: ‘0123456789ab’

// The rest is only useful if you are integrating bbPress with WordPress.

// If you’re not, just leave it as it is.

$bb->wp_table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // WordPress table prefix. Example: ‘wp_’;

$bb->wp_home = ‘http://theasianman.com/wordpress’; // WordPress – Options->General: Blog address (URL) // Example: ‘http://example.com’

$bb->wp_siteurl = ‘http://theasianman.com/wordpress’; // WordPress – Options->General: WordPress address (URL) // Example: ‘http://example.com’

I’ve turned permalinks off because it seems people are having trouble with them in conjunction with GoDaddy (my clients host : ( ).

I’ve created a .htaccess file with:

Options +MultiViews

Not sure what’s up. The default forum content is not even showing up.

Cheer all and thanks in advance

The page isn’t redirecting properly.

Published on July 26th, 2007 by

The page isn’t redirecting properly

Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

Hi all, I’m not able to get bbPress working. [Firefox, IE, Safari, Opera] can’t show the pages linked from the index page. I’m testing bbPress for use in a University setting.

The site is here: http://www2.csulb.edu/misc/sandbox/board/

A test installation.

Things you might need to know before giving me a solution:

PHP 4.4.1, MySQL 5

Apache 1.3.3.7

The directory it is residing in is a virtual directory.

mod_rewrite is enabled

I tried both true/false for $bb->mod_rewrite

What else do you need to know? Please help.

where did get_profile_info_keys() function go in 0.8.2.1

Published on July 26th, 2007 by ganzua

I just installed 0.8.2.1 and it seems functions.php have changed a lot.

Where is get_profile_info_keys() function now? Signature plugin doesn’t work because you need to insert code in that line.

not getting pagination links on forum pages

Published on July 26th, 2007 by _ck_

Ruh roh, I think I broke something.

No pagination links on forum pages even though <?php forum_pages(); ?> is there – pagination shows up and works just fine on topic pages however.

Seems to work here, any ideas how to debug this other than turning off two dozen plugins?

ps. also someone has to tell me oneday how to change the pagination number count and formatting without hacking the core – how do I alter that default settings array?

BBPRESS on my USB webserver!

Published on July 26th, 2007 by

Hello,

I have this nifty USB Webserver (which I can run on the computer too from hard disk), to try out forums, blogs, and more.

Now I stumbled across this BBPRESS, and this looked exactly like the thing I need!

However! for some reason I can’t install it, and I have been searching through the forums allready, but i don’t have a lot of time today to search through the forums for hours.

So here’s my problem, I get the dreafull “can’t select DB” error.

I have no password on my mysql, as its just an standallone webserver which only I, the one behind this laptop, can access, and so it does not require a password.

To access my webserver by a browser, I type in “http://localhost:8080”, it uses port 8080 to make sure it doesn’t conflict with 80.

Anyways, i’ve read a lot of sollutions on how to correct the problem, but for some reason I just can’t seem to solve this! maybe i’m wanting to go too fast, or perhaps I just overlook one tiny thing.

But its getting a little annoying after a few hours.

So that’s why I need help.

This is the first part of config.php which I needed to fill in.

<?php

// ** MySQL settings ** //

define(‘BBDB_NAME’, ‘bbpress’); // The name of the database

define(‘BBDB_USER’, ‘root’); // Your MySQL username

define(‘BBDB_PASSWORD’, ”); // …and password

define(‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

// Change the prefix if you want to have multiple forums in a single database.

$bb_table_prefix = ‘bb_’; // Only letters, numbers and underscores please!

// The full URL of your bbPress install

$bb->uri = ‘http://localhost:8080/bbpress’;

// What are you going to call me?

$bb->name = ‘Test website’;

// This must be set before you run the install script.

$bb->admin_email = ‘enigmatic@live.nl’;

// Set to true if you want pretty permalinks, set to ‘slugs’ if you want to use slug based pretty permalinks.

$bb->mod_rewrite = false;

// The number of topics that show on each page.

$bb->page_topics = 30;

// A user can edit a post for this many minutes after submitting.

$bb->edit_lock = 60;

// Your timezone offset. Example: -7 for Pacific Daylight Time.

$bb->gmt_offset = 0;

So with “define(‘BBDB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value”, I allready changed it a few times to “bbpress.localhost” or “localost.bbpress” as said in another topic, I tried a lot of things, but to no avail.

I seriously need help, before i’m going to cry :'(

I kid I kid, but help is apreciated.

plugin idea: “report this post”

Published on July 26th, 2007 by _ck_

I’m gonna need this one in a hurry so if there’s nothing similar in existance, looks like I have a weekend project.

For now I’m going to keep it simple, add a text link somewhere in the template and that will popup a javascript query for a description why it should be moderated and then an email will be fired off to the admin. What I really want it to do is create a new post in the moderator forum so one of the mods will see it and take action, but that might have to wait until the next version.

Am I the only one (other than the few documented examples) who’s using bbpress for something other than a micro-forum and needs these kinds of tools?

ps. the examples page needs to be updated, over 200,000 registered members now
