If you want links you can change your line to <code><a href="{$purl}">There is a new article here</a></code>. Bad side is you won't be able to edit the post ever. (2) I have an example for capturing the display name. If you email me I can send it to you.

Is there an upgrade or replacement? We have a couple of problems we would like fixes for. 1. Under Plugin Options > Topic message text for posts: we have a line that says, "[url={$purl}]There is a new article here.[/url]." Unfortunately, when it starts the new forum thread, that is what you see. To activate it, we have to manually edit the forum thread and re-submit. We don't make any changes, just re-submit. We have found that this is true for all of the usual [][/] instructions. 2. Instructions such as {$title}, {$purl} and {$post} work. How do we create a new one? We want {$auth} or something similar so that we can put the author's name on the thread. As an alternative, is there a way to change the "Forum user name:" so that it reports the author's name instead of "guest" or the forum owner's name. We want the unique name for each author. We have been trying to hack the wp2bb script without success. Any help will be appreciated. onions on "[Plugin: Wp2BB] A few bugs" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/245119#post-990308 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 17:59:37 +0000 onions 990308@http://wordpress.org/support/ I installed this plugin and am experiencing a few issues. - Time difference: there seems to be a 3 hour time difference between the time it is posted to the forum and the actual time zone setting of the forum. Both Wordpress and, in this case, phpbb, are set to UTC-8. When replies are posted to the forum thread, they appear above the initial post since the replies will have an earlier time stamp. - Not posting as forum user name as set in wp2bb. I have my forum user name set as Staff, yet the forum thread is posted under Guest. I have created a user as Staff and enabled permissions for that user to be able to post anywhere on our forum. - Links are not being translated to BBCode. For the "Topic message text for posts:" field, I have the following: <pre><code>{$post} --- Article link: <a href="{$purl}">{$title}</a></code></pre> Any links in the $post will not translate to BBCode since I have HTML disabled. Will I have to enable HTML in order for linking to function correctly? I have every field in wp2bb filled in except "Default forum for post:" and "Default forum for pages:". When I did have these fields filled in, I don't remember having as many issues. vonsko on "[Plugin: Wp2BB] phpbb 3.0.3 error" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/218058#post-900408 Sun, 16 Nov 2008 23:46:08 +0000 vonsko 900408@http://wordpress.org/support/ hi i ve just put all scripts on server and iam trying to engage wp2bb (1.4.1) however i found this two error right after configuring this plug: in front page: <pre><code>Fatal error: SQL ERROR [ mysqli ] You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1 [1064] An sql error occurred while fetching this page.

And the worst is i can not see any widgets already used therefore i can not edit it. I tried to delete then upload the plugin and activate. but it does not work adehoces on "great potential wp2bb or wp2smf" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/209337#post-872506 Thu, 09 Oct 2008 08:19:26 +0000 adehoces 872506@http://wordpress.org/support/ Hi, Thanks for your feedback, much appretiated. A few comments on questions: 1. I am working on a configurable widget to display the latest comments in the forum, it will be included in version 1.2 2. I had not planned to sync users between wp and phpBB, but I'll look into it and see how much effort is involved. In the mean time, I think you'd like to check <a href="http://www.wp-united-com" rel="nofollow">http://www.wp-united-com</a> 3. In the Wp2BB settings screen you can use the "Topic message text" option to configure the text that will be displayed in PhpBB. It is free text so you can use HTML or BBCode. Post text, title and permalink can be included using special strings. I am thinking of making it possible to override this default setting in a particular post or page by using a custom field in the post. Again, probably in Wp2BB 1.2 4. This behaviour is standard already. New posts and pages will indeed create posts in the forum as you publish them. And, *optionally*, Wp2BB will create topics in the forum for your old posts as users browse them I hope this helps. Thanks again, Alfredo iPod on "great potential wp2bb or wp2smf" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/209337#post-872471 Thu, 09 Oct 2008 07:01:49 +0000 iPod 872471@http://wordpress.org/support/ This is a longed for plug in and since I am one of thousends of ppl that dont have time to write my own plugs I need this one to continue to develope. I want these functions. 1. I want to reflect the latest forum posts in my WP blog. from perhaps the latest 3 up to the latest 20. 2. I want to be able to sync registered members between both the blog and the forum so they dont have to register twice. 3. I want to be able to control fonts and colours. To be able to put an Icon in front of every post. Be able to control what to be transferred such as title, topic, date&time and so forth. 4. This plug already makes it possible to let every post in my blog get a post in the forum but only when a reader wants to comment... I want a function that makes this a standard. as soon as the post is publ in the blog there should be a post in the forum that ppl can debate. Thanx for the great plug. I am willing to fund this plug w somewhere between 20 and 50 dollars depending on the quality and easy to use factor. <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp2bb/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp2bb/</a>
