Nice plugin, I’ll surely try it on my local server

Aug 11, 2006

i put it on the server, activated it, added groups, added forums, renamed the forum…. doesn’t show up in wordpress. also when i go straight to forum (i.e. http://www.mywebsite.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-forum/wp-forum.php) the page is blank. so what am i supposed to do?

Aug 11, 2006

Jay: Don’t you have a link in your pages menu to the forums?

Aug 11, 2006

Looking for help as well. :)

Afraid not. No page created on my WordPress 2.0.4 install http://tdjc.be nor on my WPMU r712 install either. http://daria.be

I see the record being created within my WPMU install’s database but do not see it on my 2.0.4 install’s database.

Aug 11, 2006

All: Re-download and try again, I found some bugs.

Aug 11, 2006

hey fred,

i downloaded the updated version. overwrote all the date on the server and now it shows up in the pages. it didn’t before. the forum now works. when i go to the forum options in the manage menu though i get

“SELECT ID FROM wp_1posts WHERE ID = 89″ on top of the SETTINGS page, same on the STRUCTURE page. doesn’t seem to influence the functionality of the forum though. i made it public on my site now, but announced it as BETA.

Aug 11, 2006

oh and how do i get pictures as avatars?

Aug 13, 2006

It appears that de-activating the plugin creates an addtional Page instead of removing the first one created when the plugin was created. This was occuring on my 2.0.4 WP install.

Aug 14, 2006

drmike: Download again, issue fixed.

Aug 15, 2006

would be awesome if you could give it version tags, like 1.0.2 or whatever, so we can all check back if we got the latest release running.

Aug 15, 2006

jay: Sorry for that, I just forgot. It’s fixed now.
Thanks

Aug 17, 2006

Version numbers? Oh come on. This is Wordpress! They’re buried in the code. :)

Aug 17, 2006

Greets:

Code fix here for those running WordPress MultiUser. The wp_posts table is slightly different as (I think) we’re running the 2.1 code. Also had to change the name of the page URL as, for some reason ‘wp-forum’ caused a 500 error.

For some reason, most of the file permissions are set to 700 in the download.

Looks good on a test blog. Off to announce it to my users.

Thanks,
-drmike

[...] – And, we have a new plugin to kick things off. The WordPress Forums plugin. Now you can have your very own forums directly within your blog here at daria.be. To activate the forums, one only has to visit the Plugins tab within their Administration side and activate the forums with a simple click. You will notice a new subtab under the Manage tab which will allow you to create your new forums and assign them to groups. The plugin will automatically create a new link within your Page menu of your sidebar. Any questions? Feel free to post them over on our own support forum. [...]

Great plugin, it works well on WordPress 2.0.4!! My question is how do I code to show the latest posts on the front page??
Thanks, Neocoder

Wp-Forum -> Un foro en tu blog…

Ya no te valen los comentarios? Ahora puedes a?adir un foro dentro de tu propio blog en forma de plugin f?cilmente. Una demostraci??n la ten?is en: http://www.fahlstad.se/wp-plugins/wp-forum/…

Aug 26, 2006

Works fine on 2.0.4, no problem with page creation. On 2.1-alpha2 it will not create a forum page. Tried drmikes version and same results…

Aug 27, 2006

Johan

Downloaded today’s version, installed and activated. The forum link shows up on the front page and the forum is there but I get the following error message:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /usr/home/mywebaccount/domains/mydomain.se/public_html/folder/wp-content/plugins/wp-forum/wp-forum.php on line 140

It looks like a darn nice plugin if I can make it work…

[...] Another task is the forum implementation,i’ll try wp-forum (http://www.fahlstad.se/wp-plugins/wp-forum/) because phpBB sucks! I don’t need that much features (and bugs, security holes, etc ) and I don’t like to keep two different user databases up2date.. [...]

Aug 30, 2006

Great plugin except when I visit the forum page it says:

Error 404 – Not Found
Sorry, but what you’re looking for isn’t here. Perhaps you typed a URL incorrectly or clicked on a broken hyperlink.

Any idea on how to fix?

Aug 31, 2006

same problem here.

Warning: Invalid argument supplied…

Aug 31, 2006

ovi

sry, my fault! johan, you have to add a group AND a forum. the error only occurs if u have made a group without a forum…

thx for the plugin, looks great!

Sep 1, 2006

Is there any chance that the forum files can be safely cached with WP-Cache?

Sep 1, 2006

Hi!

I downloaded and installed just as you instructed but it didn’t work

There is some error message like
“Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/hosting_users/thestorm/www/wp-content/plugins/wp-forum/wp-forum.php on line 140″

Sep 1, 2006

Oh,
Sorry, my fault,
I tried just like ovi. and it worked.
Thank you so much.
great plugin

Sep 2, 2006

how do i edit the css?

Sep 3, 2006

ok i figured out the css. it’s in the ‘wp-forum.php’ file. but i had to cut it out from there and copy to main style sheet that i use with my theme, cos it doesn’t work in the ‘wp-forum.php’.

[...] WP-forum [...]

Sep 6, 2006

Thanks .

Roy

Downloaded today. Using Wordpress that comes with Yahoo small business hosting – 2.02 I think. Have activated and created a group and a forum and it’s created the Forums page OK, but when I select the forums page I get a 404. If I go to the plug-in directly i.e. http://mysite/wp-content/plugins/wp-forum/wp-forum.php I get a blank page

Have deleted tables and files and re-downloaded several times without success.

Looks great plugin though, if only I could get it to work.

Sep 7, 2006

Congratulations for the plugin, it is great! I will be using it in my site :)
Anyway, I found a bug that can be easily solved. At wp-forum.php, the variables $PLUGIN_PATH, $reg_link, $login_link, $profile_link and $logout_link are pointing to

  1. get_bloginfo('siteurl') (etc etc)

and they should be pointing to

  1. get_bloginfo('wpurl')

The parameter ’siteurl’ returns the url of the blog. This is not a problem when your blog url is the same as your wordpress installation url. However, if you change the blog url to http://site.com/blog.php, the images, login and logout links, etc, will not work because they will point to http://site.com/blog.php/page, when they should be pointing to http://site.com/page. Using ‘wpurl’ instead of ’siteurl’ will solve the issue, as this parameter returns the url of the wordpress installation.
By the way, it would be a good idea to make a separate stylesheet for the forums and include it in the template folder. This way people could change the look of the forums if they have a theme switcher plugin, or something :)
Keep on the great work!

How do I limit only logged in members to see the forum if possible?

Sep 8, 2006

Considering switching from rs-discuss, but it currently has quite a bit more functions – any plan on adding similar functionalities…moderation, editing, etc…?

Also, I was able to partially answer my previous question by using the protectcontent plugin. Worked pretty well.

Sep 8, 2006

i have problem :(

Call to undefined function: get_option() in /var/www/vhosts/***/httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/wp-forum/forum-functions.php on line 8

thank you :)

B?rd Fleistad

I got a question.
I have installed the forums, made a new page and the forums shows up on the page.
I have also added a few test forums and categories to it.
However, when I try to enter one of the forums, it automatically sends me to the front page of the blog.
Do you know what might be causing this?

Sep 12, 2006

May i suggest you put these update and reply messages NEWEST at the top? Its often more important information ATM.

Sep 12, 2006

Works awesome! I love it! BTW in the instruction you may want to mention that you insert the code into the HTML part of the PAGE you create. Otherwise it adds a around the text you insert. So new instructions are:

1. Copy the content of the zip-file to wp-content/plugins.
2. Go and activate the plugin.
3. Create a page from the Manage tab
4. Click on the HTML button in Wordpress and then insert:

5. Go to manage->wp-forum and start adding groups and forums.
6. Also check the settings page.
7. Setup a link to your forum (unless u have your pages auto-linking in the navagation menu)

Sep 12, 2006

Ehm… Where can i test it?

Sep 12, 2006

Jan Erik Kr??yer

I have the same problem – identical.

Sep 13, 2006

B?rd: I have no idea, sorry. Check the permalinks setting if you are using them. And check the page id of the forum page, them check the links in the forum by looking at at the status bar in your browser while hovering a link. it should say somethiing like: page_id=&…

Rupert:

How do I limit only logged in members to see the forum if possible?

Not possible at the moment.

Claudia: Thanks.

Hi!

Looks great plugin! I had i problem with a links. When i press to forum in main wordpress page it goes to http://localhost/wordpress/forum/ and when i press to forums, which i made from administrator page, i got back to wordpress main page, the link to forums looks like this http://localhost/wordpress/?page_id=&forumaction=showforum&forum=4 without a “forum”.

What and where i must change?

Sep 13, 2006

I resolved the page_id problem changing the line 325 of forum_functions.php from:

  1.   return $wpdb->get_var("SELECT ID FROM $tableposts WHERE post_content = '[[WPFORUM]]'");
    
  2.  

to:

  1.   return $wpdb->get_var("SELECT ID FROM $tableposts WHERE post_content = '<!--WPFORUM-->'");
    
  2.  

Sep 13, 2006

sorry there is an error on my previews post. I changed only [[WPFORUM]] to

Sep 13, 2006

Fredrik- I got the same thing on mine when I tried to update to 1.2. The problem appeared to be that it was no longer referencing the pageID number in the individual forum links at the main forum page.

Rolling back to 1.1 fixed it.

I have a possible solution for the limitation of forum viewership. Maybe marking the page private, or using one of the premium content plugins and marking that page a premium page, so that only people who are registered can see it could be a solution?

Thansk for the very cool plugin Fredrik. I really like it a lot and can’t wait to see what it becomes.

Best-

Jeff

Sep 13, 2006

Zach

I seem to having the same problem as B?rd. This is a fresh install with no posts, but one group and one forum. When I click on the forum, I get redirected to the main page.

I’ve tried the ‘default’ permalink structure and that didn’t seem to make difference.

Here’s what the target URL looks like in the status bar:

….com/?page_id=&forumaction=showforum&forum=1

Thanks!

Sep 15, 2006

Fredrik-

1.3 seems to have fixed the issue. Thank you!

I did notice another problem recently; If you put an apostraphie or single quote in the subject line, it’ll act oddly. I haven’t tried yet, but I suspect other punctuation may cause similar issues.

-Jeff

Sep 15, 2006

thanks for great, simple plugin

Sep 15, 2006

i need 1.2 desperately! i installed 1.3 and it fucked up the whole forum. now nothing’s workin on there. please fred or anyone else please email me the 1.2 version of wp-forum. to jay (at) whataboutpj.com

thanks!

Sep 15, 2006

okay, i think i’ve found the problem. when installing 1.2 it automatically inserted the webpage with the forum code, as originally intended. so i went to edit the site and installing the new version somehow has changed the page code to something that well, obviously doesn’t work. so i re-inserted “” and changed the site.
only bug is that since that i have to edit the actual page to change the name of the page/link. it won’t work in the plug-in. but posting and administration works.

Sep 16, 2006

i’m having the page slug problem others have described.

Links to the forum threads go back to homepage.

Got the forum set up, and it shows up fine, but in my ‘manage’ section when I click on ‘wp-forum’ I get a blank page and can’t get to where I can add groups or whatnot- what’s the fix?

Sep 18, 2006

Never mind- figured it out- Apparently you have to unzip the file in your host server’s admin section rather than unzipping it first and uploading it to your host.

Also, as the one poster said, you gotta create a ‘group’ first, then an ‘add forum’- the add forum is where you will name your threads (such as ‘general discussions’ ‘group therapy’ etc. I also noticed that if I only had one ‘group’ that I got error message in the ‘manage/wp-forum’ admin. As soon as I added another ‘group’ the error message dissappeared.

Sep 19, 2006

ok why aren’t my thread folder icons showing up? I have them in the directory wp-forums/images folder, but I just get an X next to the different threads

Sep 19, 2006

jayeff

Very strange. I thought everything was working fine: the forum showed up, let me set up a forum and post to it. But then even trying from another PC, it appears to assume that when I click on a post title, I want to reply to the post. I get told I must be logged in to reply and it will not show the body of the post for me to read.

Sep 20, 2006

I am hoping you could provide me with details on restricting bits of the forum to certain users. If so, how do I determine who is in what groups? Thanks in advance.

Sep 21, 2006

I think I found a small bug in the post counts per thread in the forum listing. It appears to only include the total posts for the first thread that was created.

Another item being requested is the ability for the people posting to be able to edit their own postings.

I also had a feature request for an option to reverse the order of pages for the posts and maybe the option for not using Gravatar as the avatar displaying system.

Just some little suggestions. Thanks again for such a great tool!

Hello, I have a problem with my wp-forum. It is not possible to register, because “a registration is not allowed”. How can I allow registrations?

Sep 23, 2006

Same thing here as Zach and Bard. WP 2.1 and wp-forum 1.3, and I am using permalinks:

  1. /%postname%/

URL shows up as

  1. <a href="http://www.mydomain.com/?page_id=&forumaction=showforum&forum=2" rel="nofollow">http://www.mydomain.com/?page_id=&forumaction=showforum&forum=2</a>

Any way to delete forumposts?

Oct 8, 2006

I had the same thing as Zach, Bard and Yosemite–I fixed it by adding “index.php” in front of every instance of anything starting with “?page_id” in wp-forum.php. There were quite a few of them. Just make sure that the leading slash is there, as in: “/index.php?page_id…”

Anyway, you can see that it works by checking out my forum here: http://thepete.com/theboards

Alas, the Click Counter plugin does manage to mess WP-Forum up, which sucks, since Click Counter is so insanely useful. However, a forum like this is pretty much worth the trade, I think. Also, I had to use a post instead of a page since my htaccess file is insanely picky and won’t let me create new pages.

Awesome plugin, over all–I’m surprised it works as well as it does. Nice going and thanks!!

Oct 8, 2006

One thing I just noticed: the Profile link under each poster’s name gives me a 404 not found error. I tried mucking about with the code to fix it, but couldn’t figure out where to find the actual user profile. :(

Any help would be most welcome!

This plugin is great. However I have a questions that maybe someone can help me with. I would like to have registered members before they can use the forum, but not have the ability to make post to my blog. Does that make sense? Sorry I’m new. Everytime I go and test the registered link on the forum, it tells me that it is not allowed. Can someone please help me.

thanks,

Oct 18, 2006

Hi! Just wanted to say that this is a great plugin, but I am just wondering if there is a chance that a future version could include a rich-text editor? There doesn’t seem to be a decent forum plugin available for Wordpress that includes a rich-text editor, and given how cool this plugin is in every other respect, I’d love to continue using this one, if a text editor were included!

Thanks, again, and keep up the good work! :)

Oct 18, 2006

how can i add the forum manually in the sidebar?

Oct 19, 2006

I had the same thing as Zach, Bard and Yosemite–I fixed it by adding “index.php” in front of every instance of anything starting with “?page_id” in wp-forum.php. There were quite a few of them. Just make sure that the leading slash is there, as in: “/index.php?page_id…”

thanks Pete for this.. I was able to fix the problem… however my forum is on a seperate page and is with permalinks aswell.. I had a few linkage problem while in the form and had to fix one line in the forum.php file… this was tricky because I had to try each one to see if it was the one..ha

line 249 in wp-forum.php:
$link = “http://www.yoursite.com/yourfolder/?page_id=”.$forum_page_id.”&forumaction=showposts&thread=”.$t->id.”&forum=$t->forum_id&start=0″;

also I had to change all the “?page_id” over in the forum-functions.php file also

Oct 20, 2006

I recently enhanced mine by adding redirect code to the Login/Logout links on the WP-Forum script page. This helps those users who only are interested in the forum and get confused by the Wordpress admin page which appears normally after logging in.

Maybe this should be added in to the next version?

-Jeff

Hi,

I just installed your forum, but it won’t show any configuration option tabs in ‘admin’.
I installed it before on another wordpress install, and then it worked okay (de-installed it there, deleted it from the server) – any ideas perhaps? Thanks in advance!

KazOo (Netherlands)

Oct 23, 2006

Very elegant plugin. Thank-you for your efforts!

The bug that Nuccio (et al) is experiencing, where it bumps you back to your wordpress mainpage, is caused by editing the page that your forum resides on.

If your forum resides on a separate Wordpress ‘page’, the function forum_get_page_id() in forum_functions.php will fail to obtain the table entry for page ID.

A workaround is to just manually specify the page’s ID on line 8 of form_function.php.
Change :

  1. 
    
  2. $forum_page_id   = forum_get_page_id();
    
  3.  

to

  1. 
    
  2. $forum_page_id   = 12 //or whatever the page id is

The longer term fix is to change

  1. 
    
  2. return $wpdb->get_var("SELECT ID FROM $tableposts WHERE post_content = '<!--WPFORUM-->'");
    
  3.  

to handle it better when the source page includes more content than just . :)

Oct 23, 2006

…to handle it better when the source page includes more content than just :

  1. 
    
  2. <!--WPFORUM-->
    
  3.  

Oct 24, 2006

this took me a while since i have permalinks but i just figured it out with your help thank you!

Oct 29, 2006

Just installed on a test site and it looks great. Is there an obvious way to display the most recent X number of forum topics, or better yet the most recently edited forum topics, on the main WP page? This way users of the website can easily see the most recent topics in the forum.

Thanks.

Oct 29, 2006

covert.c.: Thanks.
Eric Simon: Not at the moment but it’s a very good suggestion.

Oct 29, 2006

Just to clarify “convert.c” post. The first 9 lines of forum-functions.php should look like this:

Great plugin.

Oct 29, 2006

global $wpdb, $table_prefix, $wp_query;
$table_threads = $table_prefix.”forum_threads”;
$table_posts = $table_prefix.”forum_posts”;
$table_forums = $table_prefix.”forum_forums”;
$table_groups = $table_prefix.”forum_groups”;

$forum_page_id = 151;

Oct 29, 2006

Hi Fredrik

I am from Turkey, i want to translate your forum language to Turkish. If you allow to translate, i will make it. And i want to add language code in your plugin script.

I wait your reply, Thanks for good plugins;)

I just tried the forum plugin with the mods from drmike on wpmu and there are severall problems: I create the page manually, create a groupd and a forum and nothing shows up… even the forum page does not show up in my sidebar although other created pages sho up automatically… even if Iaccess its url manually nothing is being displayed…

Nov 3, 2006

Hi, thanks for this superb plugin! I have a problem with dates that are showed next to “On:” in posts listings in forums. Thus, all posts have been published on… November 31, 1999. Does anybody know how to get around this?

Hello,

I want view the last post in the sidebar. I can do it?

Why it says to me, Error 404 – Not Found ?! What’s the problem?

Hi!

Thank You for that great plugin! Fits perfect to my page. But unfortunately i receive one error when trying to view a thread:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class html_bbcodeparser_filter_links in /var/www/htdocs/cust/w3neurofx/www.neurofx.net/forex/wp-content/plugins/wp-forum/bbcode.php on line 697

Nov 5, 2006

sorry, problem is fixed.
have installed 1.3 before…
now with 1.4 it´s working!

Thanks! :-)

Nov 12, 2006

Cool–glad my comment helped. I’m guessing the changes have been made in 1.4. I’m also hoping that there is a way (or will be soon) to have recent forum activity show up in the sidebar. Honestly, I think that should be the next order of business for wp-forum. Thanks for your great plugin, Fredrik!

Nov 13, 2006

Alas, I’m having the same problem I had before with the hrefs not using quotes. I tried making the same changes I made last time (to 1.3–swapping out ‘ for \”) but that didn’t wok this time. So I’ll be switching back to 1.3. Still would love to see a way to post the latest activity on the forum on the main page, though.

Nov 13, 2006

ThePete: I’ll try to implements some tag closing.

Nov 16, 2006

hi,
I’m trying to use your forums on my site but there is a problem with the new Version 1.5.1

If a user clicks on “search” inside the forum or if they just want to go back to the forum main page and they click on the navigation link, they are taken back to the index page of the site instead of where they want to go.

For example: if you go here:

http://hipfox.com/wp/xdforum/

and then click on the word “search”

you’ll be taken back to hipfox.com’s index page.

Is there any correction coming soon?

Nov 16, 2006

robert: Fixed, thanks.

hi. once uploaded and activated, i have no options to create groups or forums. the settings page only allows me to change forum name, number of posts, date format etc. can anyone suggest why this might be?

Hi!
I’ve just installed your plugin without problems. I have also created the forums (three) but, when I go to the forum’s page (http://www.textos-traducidos.org/?page_id=4) and I click on a forum, goes back to the index page. What is the problem?

Nov 16, 2006

I’ve sent you a new version. It’s still 1.5.2 but with some changes. 1.5.3 is no available.

Hi Fredrik – nice plugin.

Having a small problem though. I installed it a while ago, so not too sure which version I have got (I think 1.4, but the latest version 1.5.3 downloads with problems when opening it in my zip program).

Anyway, the problem I have is when I am logged out of the forum and go to look at the posts.

The summary of “Subject / Author / Replies / Views / Last Post” seems to be one out of synch. The Subject doesn’t show, which causes the “Author” to sit underneath the “Subject”, the “Replies” under “Author” etc etc.

Any idea what is causing this?

Also, I don’t seem to be able to open the latest zip file (1.5.3).

cheers
Lev

Hello,

this is a great plug-in, but I’m also having problems with the latest zip file. Seems to be corrupted somehow. I’ve downloaded it a few times and use different programs to try to open it, but nothing seems to work for me today. :-(

Nov 19, 2006

Thanks, Fredrik! However, the most important thing I think is to have the latest forum activity visible in the sidebar. I’m perfectly happy with 1.3 the way it is. :)

Thanks so much for your efforts!

Something is wrong with the new download? I wanted to get any version working but this download has only one file and I tried to upload it to my plugins directory yet you can’t activate it. I then tried to change it to a php but that didn’t work either. I think something is wrong with the new download link. Please help! :(

Great plugin. Just two suggestions:

1. It would be great to have links to the most recent posts in the sidebar. I think that’s a very important feature to have.

2. If you haven’t already, you should perhaps announce this plugin on the Wordpress forum. I did a search there and couldn’t find any mention of it. Doing this would perhaps allow more peer support and take some of the support work away from you.

Hi, Fahlstad! I’ve just installed your wp-forum plugin on my blog, but i have one problem.

See the forum here.

Now, because the template is small in width, I want to enlarge it. I want to wrench the sidebar but only from the page where is the forum. Is it possible to do that?

Thank you,
Sylvester.

Hi,

When I want to add a group. i get the message: Skin activated. I am not able to make a group.
Running version 1.7.

What is wrong? Tried it on 3 of my blogs.

Hi Fredrik,
it is working now, I redownloaded and reinstalled, saw it is 1.7.1 now.
Thank you
Chris

Dec 3, 2006

Fredrik,

Love this plugin – I’m in the process of migrating my current blog to Wordpress, and this is exactly what I was looking for in terms of community interaction.

One issue – when I installed the forums, they are inheriting the CSS of the theme I’m using, and are not showing any of the skins.

Also, forum posts aren’t showing the author’s name.

Ideas?

Dec 3, 2006

Richard Blair

I’ve installed the forum, and finally have it debugged to the point that it’s working, with table layouts fine, etc. I have two problems.

1) The images are not showing. I thought this was a directory pointing problem, but as far as I can tell all the pointers to the image directory in the chosen theme are correct in wp-forum.php.

2) The forum is recognizing me as a registered user and administrator, however, my name is not being placed next to the test posts I’ve written.

You can view the installation of the forums at http://allspinzone.com/wp/?page_id=3655 to see what I mean.

Ideas?

HMacLean

Seriously fantastic plug in – thank you very much indeed! I have it installed and running (v1.7.1) but am getting what looks like a PHP error – whenever a user posts a message and I go to read it the page doesn’t draw correctly – I can read the forum titles, and drill down to the threads, but opening a thread gives me the error.

Curiously, when I read threads I have created it all works as it should.

Any thoughts?

Dec 6, 2006

Version 1.7.2 apparently has one more pre-requisite:
PHP 5 >= 5.1.0RC1

I was getting a blank screen upon submitting a reply to an existing topic and traced it down to htmlspecialchars_decode()

- line 751 of forum-functions.php

No worries, I just have to upgrade.
I hope this helps someone :-)

Dec 6, 2006

andrabr

Oops! I am on fc4 at goDaddy, which would make getting php upgraded a totally non-trivial adventure.

Any chance of doing without htmlspecialchars_decode() ???

Thx!

Dec 6, 2006

andrabr

Followup:

in line 751 of forum-functions.php
I replaced
$link = htmlspecialchars_decode(forum_get_link_from_post($thread, ”, $post_start)).”#msg-$post_id”;

with

$link = html_entity_decode(forum_get_link_from_post($thread, ”, $post_start)).”#msg-$post_id”;

now wp-forum is working and I am loving every minute of it!

Dec 6, 2006

HMacLean

Thanks for the suggestion andrabr, but it didn’t seem to solve the issue I am having. I’m hoping Frederik might have an idea or two for me…

My hosting is with a UK company called ‘Pipeten’, and as far as I can tell they support PHP5.

Dec 7, 2006

After posting the first thread the plugin killed my CSS !

Dec 8, 2006

WHY DID YOU DELETE MY COMMENT????

I wanted to know how to sort my forum comments by descending order dates.

Dec 8, 2006

Nick: No need to shout. I’m sorry but it may have gone with the 92 spam comments I got.

Change line 84 in forum-functions from this:

  1. return $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $table_posts WHERE thread_id = $thread ORDER BY date ASC limit $start, $ppp");

To this:

  1. return $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $table_posts WHERE thread_id = $thread ORDER BY date DESC limit $start, $ppp");

Dec 9, 2006

sorry for shouting

The comment was up for more than a day, then dissapeared. So, I thought you did this on purpose.

Although I cant see the entire code I changed this line from ASC to Desc, but still no change in the order.

Thank you

Dec 9, 2006

Nick: Strange, that piece of code controls how the posts are sorted before they are displayed. Notice that this only affects posts and not threads or groups.

Dec 9, 2006

I want to sort comments in my Forum; that is, in a static page that I have inserted

Dec 9, 2006

sorry, it was code and dissapeard. It was:

“”

Dec 9, 2006

Is there anyway to just bypass the included skins and use my wp theme? I suspect I know the answer, but just wanted to check before I go modding one of the included skins. Hopefully, you wont be changing much of the skin structure too much with future upgrades…

Thanks for nice plugin…

Mr Papa

Dec 10, 2006

Fredrik, for what its worth, you have a small typo in step 8 of our installation instructions… activity is misspelled…

You can ignore my previous comment as I have already created my own skin…

Mr Papa

Dec 12, 2006

alright! Latest 1.7.3 version upgrade installed and working just fine! keep up the good work.

Mr Papa

Dec 15, 2006

Thanks for this great plugin.

I have a problem,I just want to know how to change the default time. When I finished the installation,the forum displayed the time as “You last visited: 1970-01-01 07:00:00″.

Thanks.

Dec 16, 2006

There’s a bug in this for me. Every time I posted a new thread, nothing would show up. I looked in phpMyAdmin and the “thread_id” field in the posts table was always zero.

It needs the “INSERT” instruction fixed in the insert post function. Instead of ‘$_POST[thread]‘, it should read $_POST['thread']. This sorted it for me.

The error above is only appearing when I’m loged in, by the way…

Dec 17, 2006

Fredrik:
This seems to working almost perfectly on our site. I had to hard code the location of wp-forum.php at line 33 of wp-forum.php to get rid of errors (I have my blog located at a different location from my root directory caused the problem, I think). The only problem that I am aware of is that the forum always says “Welcome, Rusty Smith. You last visited: 1969-12-31 18:00:00″ whenever I am logged in. Anybody know how to fix this?

Thanks for this great plug-in. I think it may be just what I have been looking for.

Hello, I had an old old old version of your wp-forum plugin and I just upgraded from it to the new one here by deactivating it and then renaming the folder to wp-forum-old. I then added the new wp-forum folder and pressed activate. That is it. All the previous code from the original has not changed in syntax so all whent very smooth. Looks like it has progressed rather nicely. Everything seems to work just fine. Good stuff you got here.

What if you use “pretty” links, doesn’t seem to work.

I had it working when I used the Default permalinks and did the little fix suggested (where you edit the forum-functions.php and put a hard link as your page id).

But when I switched over to “Date and name based” permalinks it stopped working, and now it just displays blank.

Can anyone help with this?

I just installed this plugin on my WP 2.0.5 install with several other plugins installed. The forum itself seems to be working, but when I paste the sidebar code into my Sidebar so that the last N forums posts display I get a big error- on my homepage it displays a Fatal error, calling the line of code that i just pasted into the sidebar file. So I took it out. Any ideas why that isn’t working?

Also, will the Search field on the site also find and display forum posts that match the search terms?

Thank you,
Ron

PS: The next feature I would like to see is email notification or digests. Thank you.

Referring to Claudia’s message above – ‘wpurl’ is correct but only in cases where the blog is in a subdir. My blog IS the site. I couldn’t get my posts to show up, but when I reverted back to ’siteurl’, they all showed up perfectly when clicked on. Might be a solution for some of you getting those empty redirects..

Feb 17, 2007

Hey,

almost everything is working great, instead of two more or less little things:

1. The “You last visited:”-state is always at 01.01.1970, 01:00.

2. My read – unread – state within the groups and forums (small icons in front of the topics) do not change. So you never know if a new post comes to a thread.

Any tipps are highly recommended. Thx.

I am having the same issue as mike above when I go to a certain site. I am using WP 2.1 and would like to use your plugin but want to make sure my users can get into the forums.

Hope you have an fix for this as this is a good plugin.

Mar 13, 2007

Can you recommend something to prevent spam on our forum? We are using your plugin for our support forum. At this point, I would prefer not to have people register to add or comment to a post. I like the frictionless, anonymous way people can enter feedback as a guest. But, if it is the only solution, then I suppose I must. Thanks!

Mar 15, 2007

Hi Mike – the stripos is a PHP5 function and I am 99% certain that your host is running php4 or less. YOu can change this to strpos (forum-functions.php) ~ line 862

// User is moderator
if(stripos($mods, $_GET['forum']))
return true;

A question for Fredrik – this seems like a great forum system but I have a few issues. Myself, like mike here are running PHP 4.x and you seem to have written some php 5 functions. Could you let us know where the rest are.

My main issue is, again, like many others here – a blank page when people try to post. As an admin, I can go in and post ok, but nobody can read the posts. It just comes up blank!
http://www.blind-summit.co.uk/?page_id=6&forumaction=showposts&forum=6&thread=1&start=0

I just have to thank you for developing this plugin. this makes my site complete…no page loads just a clean web page..i had no problems installing and im an amature.

Apr 9, 2007

I just installed your plugin but I didn’t notice that it isn’t certified for use with WP 2.1.3. Unfortunately it appeared to be working fine except after I created my forum topics I couldn’t find a way to actually post to a topic. When I came back over here to see what might be going on I see that it isn’t supposed to work with WP 2.1.3. Has anything been done to correct this? It looks great and I would love to implement it.

Fresh install, got the following errors on manage>wp-forum:

Structure:
WordPress database error: [Table 'usfaikid_wp.wp_forum_groups' doesn't exist]
select * from wp_forum_groups ORDER BY sort DESC

Moderators:
WordPress database error: [Table 'usfaikid_wp.wp_forum_forums' doesn't exist]
SELECT * FROM wp_forum_forums ORDER BY sort DESC

Uninstalled, reinstalled, same error. Note, this was a clean install of WordPress too… installed both at the same time.

Hi

I’d like to keep the latest forum posts on my blog front page, but get rid of the ‘by [name of poster]‘ bit. I just want the forum topic subject, no names.

How can I do that, please? Many thanks for a great plugin! x

Apr 16, 2007

I’ve also noticed that the times of posts made to my forum are all screwy, ie it is saying posts were made at midnight, or in 1969! But it seems at least to get the day right in the forums but not in the ‘hello’ area at the top right (which is giving me Wednesday right now when it should of course be Monday!).

I tried going through the other comments, saw some references to the problem but… no fix?

Thanks in advance for your help, appreciated!

Apr 17, 2007

same problem as described by Ron & Mike

Apr 20, 2007

hi mike, I have the same problem, have you resolved the problem?

Apr 23, 2007

Hi,

installed under wordpress 2.1.3. everything looks good, the forum table shows up with the groups I created, but, there is no “start thread” button. What’s missing?

Apr 24, 2007

where is the “next comments” button??

Apr 25, 2007

Hi all and author …

… I’ve got that problem … when I’m trying to post anything I’ve got this: SUBJECT CANNOT BE EMPTY … but obviously it’s not.

What’s wrong ?

Cheers.

Installed the plugin and am getting this error on the forum page:

WordPress database error: [Table 'myex_wrdp1.wp_forum_groups' doesn't exist]

When trying to add a group in manage I get the following:

SELECT MAX(sort) from wp_forum_groups

WordPress database error: [Table 'myex_wrdp1.wp_forum_groups' doesn't exist]

I don’t know what happened but my previous posts are missing. Anway

i found the solution for this kind of error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: stripos() in /home/httpd/vhosts/routesetter.com/httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/wp-forum/forum-functions.php on line 862

I compared the 2 sites I installed plugin with. The with one working forum plugin (wordpress installed few months earlier) and the not working one(wordpress new installation). Then I also installed 2 new more wordpress on different sub domains with forum plugin but still got the error… and forum is not working

I checked the Manage section => ADd page lists…
the “forum” page I created says that the owner is admin but the “author” drop down field located on the right side is not there even on creating a new page compared to those sites that have working forum plugin.

luckily I stumbled on the users section…
The list stated that I got 1 administrator.. It’s by default… but I still click on my admin user..and choose
Set the Role of checked users to -> Administrator -> then saved. Then deleted the forum page I created earlier and create again… now I saw the author section on the right side and the error was gone and forum is now working!

cheers!

well, this plugin is still too much for me, can I just make a cantact page just as wisdump.com did? How? Thanks.

May 13, 2007

in step 8. I tried copy/pasting your code:

forum_latest_acivity(numbers_to_show);

into my sidebar,

but realized there is a spelling mistake. It should be:

forum_latest_activity(numbers_to_show);

Hello,
I had the same line 826 problem myself that was cleared up by deleting an extension in firefox that was incompatible with firefox 2.0.0.3 . For those of you that get that error check the forum in another browser before freaking out. Now my problem is that whenever a post is made it’s duplicated. I’m using wp 2.1.3 & wp-forum 1.7.4 . Thanks for any help.

May 17, 2007

i am having the worst luck with forum plugins!!! anyway… i downloaded and unzipped wp-forum and for some reason i cannot activate it. i extracted the zip into my plugins folder but nothing appears under my plugins list. i would have posted in a forum… but a password is never emailed to me when i register. please help

May 17, 2007

hmm, i get an error only when i have php5 enabled..

Warning: date() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given in /wp-content/plugins/wp-forum/forum-functions.php on line 656

when i enable php4 it works fine. Fredrik, is this something easily fixed?

Was there a fix for this db error?

May 21, 2007

Is there another version coming – or is this plugin reached the end of its development cycle? Any ETA on the next version if it is not dead?

May 21, 2007

I just installed and in both the “structure” and on the live page it shows

[Table 'bri0709610452192.wp_forum_groups' doesn't exist]

Where do I need to go and how, do I fix? (in as basic as terms as possible). Thanks

i am using ur great plugin on wp 2.2 and it works fine.

as i just read all the comments in here, i figured out, that there is still a bug with the date-function as it always shows: ur last visit was in 1970…

the second thing i am unsure about is, that if i create a new thread, nothing shows up. if i answer to this new thread, the answer shows up…

any ideas? thank you!

I have what is hopefully a simple question: how do I uninstall all of the wp-forum plugin? I know I can delete the plugin files that I copied to the server through FTP, but I assume it leaves tables or options or other traces of itself in my database too. So, which items in my database are safe to delete? Thanks very much.

May 27, 2007

This seems to be a semi common problem:

When I install it into my Wordpress 2.1.2 plugin directory, nothing shows up in my WP Plugin Activation page.

It’s all there normally like any other plugin in my plugin folder.

I use a ton of plugins…what plugins are there known problems with? Why won’t it show up as a plugin at all?

I really want to use these because XD Forums are ugly as sin…but I might have to stick with those, because they work properly…

I’ve just now installed wp-forum, but I have a problem.
There were no instructions in the Installing process about the database. Of course I find it in the zip and imported to the wp database. But it seems not to be compatible!

ie.
Manage > Wp Forum >Structure sais:

  1. WordPress database error: [Unknown column 'sort' in 'order clause']
    
  2. select * from wp_forum_groups ORDER BY sort DESC
    
  3.  

So it seems that a row is missing from each forum tables (because ie “Moderators” sais the same too)

Please help!

Jun 20, 2007

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin, but I still get this error:
WordPress database error: [Table 'thearom_wrdp1.wp_forum_groups' doesn't exist]
select * from wp_forum_groups ORDER BY sort DESC

I’m still new to forums and websites, so maybe i’m just missing something, but i can’t seem to figure out what to do.

Jun 20, 2007

Just an FYI, the function for the sidebar (step 8 of the install instructions above) is misspelled. It should be:

Jun 20, 2007

Whoops, can’t use HTML tags in a comment… my bad. Here is the corrected PHP line:

<?php forum_latest_activity(numbers_to_show);?>

i noticed the plugin uses the page_id to get the posts, for example.
http://thinkyouth.net/?page_id=84&forumaction=showforum&forum=1

although if i change the url to: http://thinkyouth.net/forum?forumaction=showforum&forum=1

the same thread is pulled up. is there any way to fix the plugin to display all links within the plugin such as changing
/?page_id=84&forumaction=
to
forum?forumaction=

To anyone who get an error like this :

  1. Warning: date() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given in bla-bla-bla

There is an error in cookie.php, on ul function. Here is the solution (quote from Woolie posting on fahlstad wp-forum)

Ok Ive had a look into this and think I think Ive found the problem. In the cookie.php file in the ul($user_ID) function, when a user is logged in their lastvist usermeta isnt being updated.

function ul($user_id){
if(!isset($_COOKIE[session])){
update_usermeta( $user_id, lastvisit, time() );
return true;
}
return false;
}

Ive fixed it by removing the not on the if statement.

function ul($user_id){
if(isset($_COOKIE[session])){
update_usermeta( $user_id, lastvisit, time() );
return true;
}
return false;
}

Hope this helps.

Hope this helps (I got 2 days to resolving this kind of problem without result :-D .

hi fredrick!
hello all!
thanks for the great plugin.
i have a problem with it, don’t know if someone does have it.
my wp theme is “blue kino” and i’ve installed the forum plugin.
the installation is ok but in the forum page the forum layout is not displayed. only letters and links and not a single image or the layout as you have in the skins included.
:(
does anyone knows if there’s a way to correct this?
thank you.
regards

Aug 7, 2007

Seems to work like a charm on my WPMU installation, there was only one change I needed to make and that was to the skins admin, you see when trying to activate a skin it wasn’t seeing the mu users folder (this is folder version of MU and not subdomain).

Now it’s not an ideal hack, but it was a nice quick one so my users could change skins:

  1. echo "<a>Activate</a>

To

  1. echo "<a>Activate</a>
    
  2.  

Hope this helps some poor WPMU user out there ;-)

Stephen, I fixed that php5 incompatibility in the code, but I’m not sure what the normal behavior should be (I don’t have php4 installed anywhere any more). Instead of throwing an error, it was showing me 1969-12-31 19:00:00, which is probably not right. Then again, it was my first-ever visit, so what should it have said?

I have followed all of the suggestions here – changed the ?page_id to index.php?page_id.

I have no idea what else to do with this. Should I reinstall? Thank you for your time.

Hi,

I’m testing it on a localhost.

WP 2.3 says,

*****
Warning: date() expects parameter 2 to be long, string given in C:\wamp\www\wordpress\wp-content\plugins\wp-forum\forum-functions.php on line 656
*****

when the forum is activated and in use. What’s wrong with it?

When I active the plugin wordpress says:

In Installing, #8, you wrote:

To show the latest acitvity in the sidebar add this code:

  1. 1.acivity</em>(numbers_to_show);?>

There’s an error in the source code, should be :

  1. forum_latest_ac<strong>t</strong>ivity(numbers_to_show);?>

There’s the same kind of error in the text preceding the code.

I know it’s nothing, but it’s always better to be perfectly correct in the documentation of such a good wordpress’s plugin.

Thanks by the way for the excellent job!

We installed your plug in and we’re very happy with it.

However we have a minor problem with it. For some reasons the gravatars are automatically reduced to 42×42 instead of 80×80 on the rest of the website.

How can we make them 80×80 on the forum as well.

If not, is there some alternative? (I’ve tried rs-discuss on another blog, but I’m afraid to stick to it since it’s not updated for a couple of years)

Howdy,

My wordpress site got hacked into due to the recently announced security holes in the latest version of WP-Forum.

Any plans to come out with a patch? I miss this plugin already :(

Jan 30, 2008

None

I just thought I would drop by to let you know that the wp-forum is vulnerable to SQL injection. If you view the source you will notice not a single value is sanity checked and wp-forum just allows anything to be inserted into the database queries.
Try something like this for instance which I just found someone tried at our site.

/?page_id=3&forumaction=showprofile&user=1%20union%20select%20null,concat(user_login,0×2f,user_pass,0×2f,user_email),null,null,null,null,null%20from%20wp_users%20where%20id=1/*

If they had got this query right this would have concatenated all of the fields in the user table for the user admin and output it to the browser.

To fix this is as simple as changing values such as $_GET['thread'] to intval($_GET['thread'])

This is the major problem with a large portion of php code available and is directly related to laziness. Please fix this right away so others may not be affected. We however have decided wordpress is to sloppy as with the plugins that are written for it so we will not be using this forum or wordpress any more.

Hi,

you need to change point 8 in your FAQ:

“# To show the latest acitvity in the sidebar add this code:
1. acivity(numbers_to_show);?>

where numbers_to_show is an actual number like 1,2.3 ”

Should be “activity:.

But it’s a really nice plug in! Thanks

Hi Fredrik,

just to inform you that an exploit has been found in 1.7.4.

Regards,
Bram.

Feb 6, 2008

Temporary workaround:

Find the forum_show_profile function and replace it with this one:

  1. 
    
  2. function forum_show_profile(){
    
  3.    $pos = strpos($_GET['user'],'+');
    
  4.    if ($pos !== false) $user = substr($_GET['user'],0,$pos);
    
  5.    return forum_get_profile($user);
    
  6. }
    
  7.  

Feb 6, 2008

Great plugin! Simple and functional. I’ve just posted recommending it over at my blog: http://www.pushstandards.com

Feb 12, 2008

Thanks alo of!! I was searching this plugin and found here. The installation that you wrote is very very explanatory. Thank you very very much…

Feb 13, 2008

This exploit is REAL and actively being exploited – we got hacked by it last month.

Love the Forum plug-in though! We have turned off our forums until a security fix is ready.

Hi, I use this wonderfull forum plugin, it’s a great forum for wordpress, but I realize that the user’s profile links and page are not really protected. I explain, as the profile page appears after variables putting in the url so, I made some test, and even if you are not login in wordpress, that plugin car retrieve profile data by simply changing the number user in the url.
So I think that a big security break for the blog.

There is the chain I talking about
“&forumaction=showprofile&user=8″
Any suggestion about that??
I start see within your code to solse this but I got some lake to usderstand all the code.

I suggest the use of $Session php variables instead of url parsing variables

hi:
I foundt this page…please check out..

If you are currently using the latest release of the WP-Forum plugin, listen up. The websec security team has discovered a vulnerability within this plugin that can be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL injection attacks. According to Secunia:

Input passed to the user parameter in the WordPress installations index.php script (when forumaction is set to showprofile and page_id to a page with the tag) is not properly sanitised before being used in SQL queries. This can be exploited to manipulate SQL queries by injecting arbitrary SQL code.
