Sorting Forums

How do I control the order in which the forums appear on the page? I am currently using this shortcode:

Adding placeholder text to textarea, esp in new topic form

Published on December 9th, 2016 by lamitdeptvolunteer

Hi,
I noticed textarea for newtopic description is generated using bbp_the_content function. I.e., not available in form-topic.php site specific copy.

  • bbPress 2.5.11
  • WordPress 4.6.1
  • site (internal)

If this is worth your time, how do I add placeholder attribute in the following list, without breaking the upgrade mechanism? I mean if it is a five minute job for any of you. Otherwise I can spend my own time to work around it using css… it’s nagging me that you all would not have forgotten to allow for this …reasonably important thing… I think.

	function bbp_get_the_content( $args = array() ) {

		// Parse arguments against default values
		$r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array(
			'context'           => 'topic',
			'before'            => '<div class="bbp-the-content-wrapper">',
			'after'             => '</div>',
			'wpautop'           => true,
			'media_buttons'     => false,
			'textarea_rows'     => '12',
			'tabindex'          => bbp_get_tab_index(),
			'tabfocus_elements' => 'bbp_topic_title,bbp_topic_tags',
			'editor_class'      => 'bbp-the-content',
			'tinymce'           => false,
			'teeny'             => true,
			'quicktags'         => true,
			'dfw'               => false
		), 'get_the_content' );

Here is what I am trying to do, i.e., add the words “… and a short description of the topic here.” in the blue area.

Change in translations

Published on December 9th, 2016 by cbannebjerre

I’m not satisfied with some of the translated words i bbpress (danish) – I have tried to change in / wp-content / languages / plugins / bbpress-da_DK.po

I have tried to change freshness:

#: includes/admin/forums.php:414 includes/admin/topics.php:638
#: templates/default/bbpress/loop-forums.php:22
#: templates/default/bbpress/loop-topics.php:22
msgid “Freshness”
msgstr “Seneste indlรฆg”

Search analytics or statistics

Published on December 9th, 2016 by allad

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a plug-in (or another solution) to get the analytics on search terms within the bbPress forum I’m running.

It doesn’t have to be fancy, I just need to know stuff like the most queried terms over time.

Thanks !

bbPress 2.5.12 โ€“ Requires WordPress 4.7

Published on December 9th, 2016 by Stephen Edgar

Oh, bother! Out now is bbPress 2.5.12, which fixes a bug for WordPress 4.7 users who did the right thing and updated to bbPress 2.5.11. Some of you may have noticed your bbPress menu items disappear โ€“ this release fixes that stinger. ๐Ÿ

2.5.12 officially bumps the minimum WordPress version requirement to 4.7 for all releases going forward. If you are stuck on a previous version of WordPress, please continue to use 2.5.11.

This cut-off is in place because the improvements to user-roles in WordPress 4.7 are really that important, and all future bug-fix releases to 2.5 and major releases going forward will be taking advantage of them.

If youโ€™ve updated to 4.7 and are one of the unlucky few to get stung by the missing-menu bug, please accept my sincere apologies along with an update to 2.5.12 to relieve the itching.

Just Installed on Vanilla WP Install – Now What?

Published on December 9th, 2016 by horizon70s

I think this may be related to a couple other complaints, but there’s no menus once there’s an install on WP 4.7

I’ve tested on 2 different vanilla installs, on 2 different domains.

Thanks

Fetch different avatar

Published on December 8th, 2016 by ysiggen

So I am using bbpress alongside buddypress. This is great because running a little gaming community, it is awesome having the ability to use the widely know traditional forums as bbpress offers them while adding some great social features brought by buddypress.

Now I’ve done my research and figured out that bbpress relies on the wp profile informations (since well wp and bbpress work great together). Aside of that, there is some synchronisation between buddypress and wp profile informations.

What I’d like is be able to use only one avatar for both plugins. bbpress fetches the wp profile avatar while buddypress as one on its own. So my idea is to fetch buddypress’s image when displaying the user’s avatar on the forums.

I tried to search for documentation on this and didn’t find much. I ended up digging the plugin code and stumbled upon, while looking in the /plugins/bbpress/includes/users/template.php file, bbp_current_user_avatar() which uses bbp_get_current_user_avatar() that calls get_avatar() with the desired size and user id.

So I guess the obvious step is telling bbpress to look for the buddypress profile image rather than use this get_avatar() function, which I suspect is fetching the wp profile image.

But I am stuck here, mainly because I am new to wordpress, also to php. I should be able to sort myself out with some indications (how and what to use) or even some pseudo code.

I want to do this because I want people to not use their wp profile (there is not much there anyway) and rather go through their buddypress profile only.

Thank’s in advance for any help.

Thanks
