Support » Plugins » HELP! Adding a JQuery wordcounter to bbpress comment textarea

  • Hey guys,

    I’ve been trying to add a JQuery script for the past 12 hours (i’m not sure if this is considered a quick boiling point or not…) but I haven’t actually installed any JQuery stuff before so I might just be missing some stuff… but rather than me describing what I did, can someone take me through the process?

    I’m using Buddypress + bbPress and would like a “live word counter” function to the “comment textarea” for the forums.

    I found a JQuery script that will do this for me… but i must not be adding it correctly, or am missing a step.

    The plugin is found here: http://roy-jin.appspot.com/jsp/textareaCounter.jsp

    I’ve tried reading other forums on how to add jquery, but I find myself unable to follow the “easy” steps… and the nonchalance of it all is also doubly frustrating! I’m sure if someone was able to show me how to install it, then I would be 1000x more comfortable/confident with all this .js stuff 🙂
