    Wordpress Phpbb Last Topics Plugin

    I created a plugin to display the most recent topics of your phpBB forum.
    You can set the number of topics to display, wrap long words or exclude a category of the forum.

    Just download the plugin, unpack it into your wordpress plugins-folder and activate it, then edit it to set:

    $host = “http://www.yourblog.com/phpbb”;
    $forum_path = “phpbb”;

    Then activate it and insert this short code where you want to show the last topics.

    <?php if (function_exists('wpphpbb_topics')): ?>
    <? wpphpbb_topics(); ?>
    <?php endif; ?>

    See it in action in my homepage’s sidebar.

    [...] I’ve found a solution for including the recent posts to the forum on the site, the website for the plugin is http://www.4mj.it/wordpress-phpbb-last-topics-plugin/ [...]

    20 Aug 06 , 1:23 pm jzn

    I get this:

    Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /apache/www.psycholoog.net/www/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-phpbb.php:48) in /apache/www.psycholoog.net/www/wordpress/wp-includes/pluggable-functions.php on line 272

    Does anyone know a solution???

    Thanks

    Link me your site, http://www.psychogoloog.net/ is wrong.
    Have you edit the plugin settings?
    For example my site settings are
    $forum_path = “forum”;
    $host = “http://www.4mj.it/forum”;
    $prefix = “phpbb_”;

    When I insert in sidebar.php I see correctly the last messages of my phpbb forum, but I receive this error in Categories:

    Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in C:\AppServ\www\wordpress\wp-includes\template-functions-category.php on line 321
    No hay categorías.

    If I comment , this error disappear.

    What can I do?

    22 Aug 06 , 7:47 pm Peppe

    Link me your site.

    23 Aug 06 , 7:21 pm Kratoss

    It’s in localhost.

    23 Aug 06 , 7:40 pm Peppe

    Do you have any categories?
    Do you have any posts?
    The problem isn’t the plugin.

    23 Aug 06 , 8:08 pm Kratoss

    I have 3 categories in wordpress and 10 or 11 posts in phpbb.

    Any idea?

    23 Aug 06 , 8:38 pm Kratoss

    I know that the problem isn’t the plugin, I’ll try to fix it.

    Thx ;)

    Great work!

    29 Aug 06 , 6:07 pm Meredith

    Hi. Love the plugin.
    Im wondering how it would be possible to show my latest forum posts in a list, like you have done on your site? Right now, there are no breaks between each link and it all runs together.

    Thanks for any advice.

    29 Aug 06 , 6:39 pm Meredith

    Found a solution to my question…..

    added li tags around this last bit of code —>
    a href=\”$host”.”/viewtopic.php?t=$resultsow[topic_id]\”>$topics_title…

    thanks for the plugin! works great!

    I have a problem with your plugin. Others have mentioned that after the plugin is installed that the sidebar lists don’t appear (Blogroll, categories, and other links), and I have noticed the same thing AFTER activating your plugin through the WP admin control panel.

    It also has the effect of not redirecting to forms after submitting them in the ACP. As soon as I disable the plugin everything goes back to normal.

    6 Nov 06 , 1:49 pm alex

    the plugin is very pretty easy to install and works fine …but i need to expand it ! can you give me a solution to show the usernames to ??? like

    lastpost(link)
    by: username
    lastpost(link)
    by: username
    lastpost(link)
    by: username

    thanx !!!

    6 Nov 06 , 2:42 pm Peppe

    ok ,now i work to it!

    Come posso escludere alcune categorie del forum?

    13 Nov 06 , 7:27 pm Peppe

    Apri con un editor il plugin, dentro

    There is a bug in the plug-in. It closes the connection to the database in the last string of code. So if you put the plug-in in the page source before posts, you’ll get a error message telling you that wordpress can’t get the posts from the database. Because the connection is closed by the plug-in.

    Not a big problem. And the plug-in works GREAT! You can see it in action in the sidebar of my blog:

    18 Nov 06 , 12:00 pm Andrew

    How do you get around the database connection closure??

    18 Nov 06 , 6:35 pm tjodalf

    You just remove the last string of the plug-in. You should right away be able to see what string that has to be removed. It is not difficult at all. Just use the “try and error” method.

    Hi! Enbody know how to get some other-languages special characers like polish? I’ve got wp and phpbb in polish, but names of post are not correct? In special-characters places this plugin display me some “?”

    25 Dec 06 , 1:48 am JonesLA

    Looking for some doorway scripts but dont know what is good. I came across TrafficboosterPro and TrafficHurricane.
    Has anyone tried these programs or could tell me about any better ones?

    25 Dec 06 , 12:52 pm Mitos Kalandiel

    Nice plugin, but had to later it a little bit :

    LINE35 : original# $phpbbq = “SELECT * FROM “.$prefix.”topics WHERE forum_id !=’1′ ORDER BY topic_last_post_id DESC LIMIT 0,10″;
    LINE35 : new# $phpbbq = “SELECT * FROM “.$prefix.”topics WHERE forum_id !=’7′ ORDER BY topic_last_post_id DESC LIMIT 0,5″;

    by default, you exclude forum_id 1 and you tell in your manual to add “AND forum_id !=’2′” , that would exclude two forum_id’s ;)

    LINE 46 : original# mysql_close($connection);
    LINE 46 : new# //mysql_close($connection);

    Wordpress 2.0.5 doesn’t like closed connections b4 all database queries are handled, so i commented the line out

    and last thing (but that’s more for formatting reasons)

    LINE44 : original# $topics_title…“;
    LINE44 : new# $topics_title…“;

    that’s just simply to fit better into the Sidebar layout from wordpress ;)

    and a little workaround, if for some reason, the plugin gets deactivated :

    sidebar.php
    original#
    new#
    … some formatting …

    … more formatting …

    25 Dec 06 , 1:01 pm Mitos Kalandiel

    ah crap, my formatting has been killed :(
    again the last two suggestions :

    —————————–
    and last thing (but that’s more for formatting reasons)

    LINE44 : original# <a href=\”$host”.”/viewtopic.php?t=$resultsow[topic_id]\”>$topics_title…</a>”;

    LINE44 : new# <li><a href=\”$host”.”/viewtopic.php?t=$resultsow[topic_id]\”>$topics_title…</a></li>”;

    that’s just simply to fit better into the Sidebar layout from wordpress ;)

    and a little workaround, if for some reason, the plugin gets deactivated :

    sidebar.php
    original# <?php wpphpbb_topics(); ?>
    new#

    … some formatting …
    <?php wpphpbb_topics(); ?>
    … more formatting …
    <?php endif; ?>

    ————-
    hope it works this time

    25 Dec 06 , 1:03 pm Mitos Kalandiel

    sidebar.php again *narf*

    # add before “… some formatting …” #
    <?php if (function_exists(‘wpphpbb_topics’)) : ?>

    that’s all, merry christmas to you all :D

    Help! What have I done wrong? I keep getting errors in my side bar? Have I not configured the addresses in the code right?

    Thanks

    6 Jan 07 , 1:28 am Peppe

    You have the forum on a subdomain, try to copy your config.php(of the forum) where u have the wp, and set $forum_path with the path of the config.php.

    6 Jan 07 , 3:03 am Podchef

    Peppe, thanks for the answer, but it didn’t work. WP is on a subdomain as well. I did like you said and pointed everything to the correct path, but I am still recieving mysql errors for trying to connect.

    I think it is my blasted server. I’ve had trouble with phpfetchall in the past too. Any other ideas?

    Thanks

    6 Jan 07 , 3:24 am Peppe

    Ok try this, copy from your config.php of the forum:
    **********************************
    $table_prefix = ‘phpbb_’;
    $dbhost = ‘*****’;
    $dbname = ‘*****’;
    $dbuser = ‘*****’;
    $dbpasswd = ‘*****’;

    **********************************
    so the plugin will
    **********************************
    function wpphpbb_topics() {
    // set forum path, forum host and phpbb table prefix
    $prefix = “phpbb_”;
    $dbhost = ‘*****’;
    $dbname = ‘*****’;
    $dbuser = ‘*****’;
    $dbpasswd = ‘*****’;
    $connection = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpasswd);
    $s_db = mysql_select_db($dbname, $connection);
    **********************************

    6 Jan 07 , 4:36 am Podchef

    Thanks for that. I was close to doing that myself, but wasn’t sure it would work. It Did!

    I did make one change though–I kept the $host in because it’s called later in the script.

    Now I just need to impliment some code to clean up the output for my sidebar and I’m there.

    Thanks so much!

    6 Jan 07 , 5:10 am Peppe

    I updated the plugin to 1.1!

    [...] Io uso questo e funziona (

    26 Jan 07 , 12:07 am Daniel Cáceres

    Don’t work for me :-(

    I have WP 2.1 & phpBB 2.0.22

    29 Jan 07 , 12:25 pm pico

    ciao peppe
    mi pare di aver capito che per installare il tuo plugin devo configurare il file wp-phpbb.php come segue:

    $host = “http://www.miosito.it/forum;
    $forum_path = forum;

    poi dopo aver attivato il plugin devo inserire il seguente codice ad esempio nella side bar

    29 Jan 07 , 2:06 pm Peppe

    Ciao, si funziona anche con wp 2.1, lo puoi vedere in funzione in home.

    29 Jan 07 , 5:38 pm pico

    al momento non sono ancora riuscito a farlo funzionare.
    ho provato anche ad usare:

    function wpphpbb_topics() {
    // set forum path, forum host and phpbb table prefix
    $prefix = “phpbb_”;
    $dbhost = ‘69.69.69.69’;
    $dbname = ‘Sql123456_1’;
    $dbuser = ‘Sql123456’;
    $dbpasswd = ‘123456’;
    $connection = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpasswd);
    $s_db = mysql_select_db($dbname, $connection);

    invece di:

    function wpphpbb_topics() {
    //set forum path, forum host
    $forum_path = “forum”;
    $host = “http://www.miosito.it/forum”;
    include(“”.$forum_path.”/config.php”);
    $connection = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpasswd);
    $s_db = mysql_select_db($dbname, $connection);

    ma nulla da fare!! poi nel file “sidebar.php” del tema utilizzato ho inserito il link nel seguente modo:

    Ultime dal forum

    invece degli ultimi topics viene solo visualizzata una stringa di codice come indicato nel link qui sotto
    http://www.topico.it/varie/wp_phpbb.png
    probabilmente sbaglio qualcosa ma non so dove :-(

    29 Jan 07 , 5:41 pm Peppe

    Quel codice va inserito nel file sidebar.php, non come testo.

    29 Jan 07 , 6:46 pm pico

    cos

    29 Jan 07 , 6:53 pm Peppe

    Devo presumere che ora funzioni! Ciao

    17 Feb 07 , 10:52 pm DZGB

    hi.. i have problems using this plugin. what to do if my forum is on this type of url: forum.my-site.com?

    ciao peppe, come vedi sono spesso dalle tue parti.
    Sono alla prima esperienza di installazione forum per il mio blog. Vista la tua esperienza phpbb ritieni sia integrabile con wordpress?? Ovviamente anche grazie al tuo plugin. Insomma me lo consigli??
    grazie

    Ciao, giusto ieri http://www.phpbb.com/ ha aggiornato il propio sito con la nuova versione del forum ed una nuova vesta grafica, fossi in te aspetterei qualche giorno il rilascio della versione 3 stabile di phpbb, ora in beta5.
