Announcement for IP.Board Comments for WordPress

Beer – was that last message directed towards me?

I would like for it to not show any comments at all and just make the reader go into the forum.

If I’m not mistaken though, the reader right now has to be on the single page view for the post itself for the ‘follow the discussion’ link to appear. I think it would be great if this could show on the blog home page as well for each post – this would be much more intuitive for short posts where readers do not click for single page view.

@themustard – your email about the comments reminded me I had wanted to make that more configurable. It wasn’t even included at first, but then I added that feature without leaving the option to turn it off. With just a little bit of styling though, it looks really good (see @railroadmedia’s link above).

Adding the follow link on the front page would be another configuration to add. I think an early version of this plugin had it there too, at the end of the post, and then when the comments were added it moved to that location.

I have to get back to work but later tonight I may have time to make a few of these changes and then push an update to the repository.

@railroadmedia – do you want to email me the changes to the code you made so that I can look at them? If I add it that way you can still push the updates. Note: I’m not sure how to how to handle changes to the css when updating so keep a copy of your css changes maybe, or put them in your theme style.css so that they aren’t overwritten when you update.

Beer – thanks. It would be great to have the follow link on the front page.

Will you let us know here when the updates are released?

I’ve installed the plugin…made the necessary changes on the forum and have included the information in the plugin settings. Once I make a new post within WordPress I get this error screen:

The website encountered an error while retrieving https://DOMAIN/wp-admin/post.php. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.

Then if I refresh that page it brings me back to WordPress with the post shown on my WordPress account, but nothing transfered to the forum. Have you come across this error yet?

Do we have a way to retrieve posts as comments that exclude the original first post?

Thank you for your great work, Beer.

The plugin works for me very well! But I have a question:

How can I remove the content in the “Follow the Disscussion in Prograss”?

Thank you in advance!

Is it working with 3.2?

Can I pay someone to install this for me? It still doesn’t work :\

Nothing posts to the forum..

@china Buzz, is there anything off the instructions you did or did you follow them in the read me?

Greetings! hoped to get some help.

I got most of my code working but still trying to remove the FIRST POST.

How can this be done all the comments are to be shown but not the orginal post meaning first comment it creates.

REASON:

It do creates the article twice so if you have like 4 A4 pages of text you get one really really long comments

Hope for some help!

Hi there, I have one major concern, I have a Worpdress theme that uses custom post types (not the default blog posts) yet their own custom taxonomies, will your plugin be able to fetch those?

Hello,

I installed the plugin and configure it according to my needs but everytime I create a new post I get this error:

If I disable your plugin the problem goes away, obviously I got other plugins activated, but it was working in a previous dev enviroment just like this one, but the difference is that I recently downloaded this plugins instead of using the old one.

Would you please let me know if there’s anything to edit or change or if you need more info.

Thank you!

Forgot to mention that the post is created correctly on WP and IPB but like I said I get that error evrytime a post is created.

Thanks again!

@vpadro, those appear to be errors in other plugins. The IPB code in this plugin might be turning display errors on, making them visible.

You might try adding this at the top of the class.ipbcomments.php file, just after the <?php

error_reporting( E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT );

This is untested, so you’ll have to let us know.

Thanks for replying!

I edited the file but the results were the same output, so I started deactivating the plugins one by one and these are the ones that are causing those messages:

https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/google-sitemap-generator/
https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/auto-featured-image/

The second one is not that important but I guess there’s a minor bug between Google Sitemaps and IPB Comments.

I’ll try to test an older version and see what are the results.

Thanks again!
