Sorry for the delay in replying – I’ve been tied up on other things.
Yes a great idea!
To change it to title, put this in your functions file
function rw_custom_freshness_link( $forum_id = 0 ) {
$forum_id = bbp_get_forum_id( $forum_id );
$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_active_id( $forum_id );
$link_url = $title = '';
if ( empty( $active_id ) )
$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_id( $forum_id );
if ( empty( $active_id ) )
$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_id( $forum_id );
if ( bbp_is_topic( $active_id ) ) {
$link_url = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_permalink( $forum_id );
$title = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_title( $forum_id );
} elseif ( bbp_is_reply( $active_id ) ) {
$link_url = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_url( $forum_id );
$title = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_title( $forum_id );
}
$time_since = bbp_get_forum_last_active_time( $forum_id );
if ( !empty( $time_since ) && !empty( $link_url ) )
$anchor = '<a href="' . esc_url( $link_url ) . '" title="' . esc_attr( $title ) . '">' . esc_attr( $title ) . '</a>';
else
$anchor = esc_html__( 'No Topics', 'bbpress' );
return apply_filters( 'rw_get_forum_freshness_link', $anchor, $forum_id, $time_since, $link_url, $title, $active_id );
}
add_filter('bbp_get_forum_freshness_link', 'rw_custom_freshness_link' );
If you want to display it as well use
function rw_freshness_display_title ($forum_id = 0) {
// Verify forum and get last active meta
$forum_id = bbp_get_forum_id( $forum_id );
$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_active_id( $forum_id );
$link_url = $title = '';
if ( empty( $active_id ) )
$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_id( $forum_id );
if ( empty( $active_id ) )
$active_id = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_id( $forum_id );
if ( bbp_is_topic( $active_id ) ) {
$link_url = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_permalink( $forum_id );
$title = bbp_get_forum_last_topic_title( $forum_id );
} elseif ( bbp_is_reply( $active_id ) ) {
$link_url = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_url( $forum_id );
$title = bbp_get_forum_last_reply_title( $forum_id );
}
$anchor = '<a href="' . esc_url( $link_url ) . '" title="' . esc_attr( $title ) . '">' . esc_html( $title ) . '</a>';
echo $anchor.'<p/>' ;
}
add_action( 'bbp_theme_before_forum_freshness_link', 'rw_freshness_display_title');
I’ll add these to my ‘bbp style pack’ plugin as they would fit better there, but may be a couple of weeks before I do
now added to bbp-style-pack, but further refinements to come !
