Topic: Forum widget
Hi,
my bbPress integration works well, but I don’t find any forum widget to include in my buddypress homepage. I try ton install the Forum Excerp plugin too and it doesn’t appears in my dashboard.
I’m working with Buddy Press RC1
Thanks for your help
Now that we’ve got bbPress and BuddyPress playing nice, how about a way to get custom profile fields and display them easily within the forums? Burt, I see somewhat how you did it with avatars and the name, but I’m not sure how you feed the bbGroups information and how I could tap into it for custom fields.

This is what the trac sequence shows and the comments between the dashes are what really happened.

Ticket #504 (assigned defect)
css is broken in group forums using IE7
Reported by: burtadsit Owned by: burtadsit
Description
css is completely broken by something when viewing bp group forums page in RC-1. Forums user brought it up. testbp.org is broke. My dev server and linux server too. Only visiting the forums page in IE7. Firefox and Safari are OK.
Nothing else seems affected. Just any group’s forum pages.

This happens only on the forums index page. Drill down into a topic and all is fine. What’s the diff? Looking.

Distracted by the frustration of not being able to find the problem I contribute a minor fix for something completely irrelevent to the problem at hand. Maybe if I fix everything else I won’t have to fix this.
While I was in there looking around I noticed this in /buddypress-member/groups/forum/topic.php line 68
<?php do_action( ‘groups_forum_new_topic_after’ ) ?>
Should be:
<?php do_action( ‘groups_forum_new_reply_after’ ) ?>
(2 hrs later) Light begins to dawn. It’s not css at all. What’s wrong with that? FF likes it just fine. I hate IE. Just google for some IE weirdness concerning <span> tags and I’m done.
It’s this:
<p><span class=”activity”><?php echo sprintf( ( ‘updated %s ago’, ‘buddypress’ ), bp_the_topic_time_since_last_post( false ) ) ?><span></p>
It blows the rest of the page in IE. Testing a fix.
(3 hrs later)
Same <p><span> sequence in the group home for active forum topics doesn’t get trashed. Why?
(6 hrs later)
Not done at all. Now very confused. Look deeper. 6 code editor windows open now. Source code strewn all over the floor. Ignoring the whole thing for a while hoping someone would see the forum posts, the trac ticket and maybe this will just disappear.
Well the fix is: “Remove the <p><span> activity line”. Works for me. It’s late and I have to get up early. I’ll revisit the IE nightmare tomorrow.
Or Andy could take pity on me and wave his magic IE knowledge wand and make it all go away by morning. One can always hope.
(Next morning)
I hate IE. Arrogant Microsofties. Can’t adhere to standards. Gotta be *special* don’t they? This still hasn’t gotten automagically fixed and my damn name is stuck on it. Try the ignore it and it will go away thing again.
I assigned this to me because I started working on it. However, anybody who comes up with the solution is more than welcome to take the credit. I gotta run til later this afternoon.
(That evening of the 2nd day)
Run the html validation utility on this damn thing again for the third time. IE keeps saying the same dumb stuff. It can’t even handle a <p><span> sequence.
(30 seconds after looking at the validation output and then the source again)
Fixed. <span> needed to be closed. Three hours of ignoring the html validation error messages that the span tag wasn’t closed finally led me to the inescapable and astounding conclusion that the span tag wasn’t closed.

(sigh) A total of 3-4 hrs of stupidity followed by 30 seconds of uncommon clarity. This is why Jr. Programmers aren’t paid much.
thanks appreciate it very much, the users are loving the buddypress
i’m very happy that i’m using itthe members, directory and blog -> widget area (sidebar) are all the same where it needs the float cleared at the end of the loop if you could
sorry I forgot this one:
define( ‘NOBLOGREDIRECT’, ‘http://webcomicplanet.com/’ );
I need to use ^^ that in the wp-config.php so that it redirects however if I do that, the 404 error doesnt refresh to the appropriate page when doing a buddypress action so i’m guessing that’s related
this is windows server 2008 so i’m sure there are some problems here and there
I posted this message about week ago, and the thread was closed without asking me:
I have been consistently having issues with the Recent Blogs Widget. It will work fine for days, then the list of Recently Updated blogs go missing from my blogs and when I check out the widget page for these blogs, this is what I see:
`%BEG_OF_TITLE%Recent Blog Posts%END_OF_TITLE% ‘
I delete the file bp-blogs.php file from the mu-plugins folder and the error message vanishes. Sometimes an hour later, sometimes a day later, I can upload bp-blogs.php and all is well again.
And when it errors out on one blog, it errors on on ALL blogs using it.
I am running it on primepress theme, WPMu 2.7 and BuddyPress RC-1.
I’ve been having this problem for weeks, previous attempts to get some help for this proved fruitless.
The problem vanished right after I posted this.
So the entry was closed.
This is a intermittent and recurring problem. It comes and goes. I have no explanation why. When it happens, ever single blog using the plug in shows the error message mentioned above.
I’m going to solve the problem mentioned above by simply giving up on Buddy Press. It showed potential. But the it was impossible to work with because:
1. Requests for help are often ignored.
2. It is impossible to ask for help because the the requests CANNOT BE POSTED ON THE MALFUNCTIONING MESSAGE BOARD.
I mean, seriously? Automattic OWNS bbPress. How does it work out that they fix their own product? I understand what Beta version means, but I cannot understand why Automattic cannot fix a malfunctioning bbPress forum that they own.
I’ll come back when there’s a final version.
If this message will not post here, I’ll post in on mu.wordpress.org.
And I full expect the routine lecture about how this is open source, run by volunteers, etc.
