hi @svend-rugaard,
this is a bbpress trick. Add this snippet to bp-custom.php
function abc() {
echo '@'. bbp_get_topic_author_display_name();
}
add_filter( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'abc' );
should i use the @mention snippet also for that because nohting happen ?
Nothing happen ? Where do you try to use this function ?
And No you haven’t to use another snippet.
The snippet is not correct as it ouput the display name. We need nicename.
Use this instead
function abc() {
$user = get_userdata( bbp_get_reply_author_id() );
if ( !empty( $user->user_nicename ) ) {
$user_nicename = $user->user_nicename;
echo '@'.$user_nicename;
}
}
add_filter( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'abc' );
This will only show up in a bbpress forum. Like here, that’s what you asked for.
i use it in bp-custom.php ?
Look here ? http://www.playstationforum.dk/topic/opdatering-a-forum/
My bp-custom.php is looking like this
<?php
// hacks and mods will go here
?>
function abc() {
$user = get_userdata( bbp_get_reply_author_id() );
if ( !empty( $user->user_nicename ) ) {
$user_nicename = $user->user_nicename;
echo '@'.$user_nicename;
}
}
add_filter( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'abc' )

You need to put the php tags around the code, so <?php goes before the code danbp gave you.
// is used to tell php to ignore the current ( single ) line. Multi line comments start with /* and end with */.
Then ?> needs to go at the end of the file.
There should be nothing ( including spaces or blank lines ) before the opening <?php or after the closing ?>. Some php files don’t have / need a closing ?>.
Also to note is that a text editor such as notepad ++ should be used, rather than a word-processor…
would you put the code as it should be because i dont get it then ?
Mine is looking like this now ?
<?php
// hacks and mods will go here
?>
<?php function abc() {
$user = get_userdata( bbp_get_reply_author_id() );
if ( !empty( $user->user_nicename ) ) {
$user_nicename = $user->user_nicename;
echo '@'.$user_nicename;
}
}
add_filter( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'abc' )?>
<?php
// hacks and mods will go here
function abc() {
$user = get_userdata( bbp_get_reply_author_id() );
if ( !empty( $user->user_nicename ) ) {
$user_nicename = $user->user_nicename;
echo '@'.$user_nicename;
}
}
add_filter( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'abc' );
?>
Without ?> on line three. Would suggest putting ?> on it’s own line at the end…
Edit : don’t know why it double posted…
n.b. This is presuming there is nothing else in the file. If you want to add other snippets they should go after the opening <?php tag or before the closing ?> and should not break up any other php snippets…
I just noticed that you missed the ; from the end of the add_filter line. This is important….
its not working and the bp-custom.php is blank … :S im giving up for now it been 2 hrs working on this now its 5 AM here and its just annoy me now 😀
Hope i have overlook something because right now it doesnt work at least not on the post i allready have done.
okay im awake again, should this bp-custom.php be in my childtheme maybe thats why it isnt working ?
i must have been really tired yesterday so after read a little guides i found out my mistake was i have put it in child theme instead of plugin folder. Thansk for help
