[Plugin: bbPress] Admin screen fouled up

  • After installing and activating bbPress 2.0.2 the admin page complained about outdated calls to depracated functions. This text was printed at the top of the page:

    Notice: add_contextual_help is deprecated since version 3.3! Use get_current_screen()->add_help_tab() instead. in /var/www/html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3467 Notice: add_contextual_help is deprecated since version 3.3! Use get_current_screen()->add_help_tab() instead. in /var/www/html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3467 Notice: add_contextual_help is deprecated since version 3.3!

Use get_current_screen()->add_help_tab() instead. in /var/www/html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3467

    Also the admin menu on the left was printed oddly, and I ahad to scroll down below the menu to see the right side of the page.

    Deactivating bbPress brought the page back to normal.

    Turn WP_DEBUG off if you want to suppress debug notices; shouldn’t have it on in a live environment since it’s overly sensitive for most users of your site.

    Otherwise, this is already fixed in the development version of bbPress 2.1 which will be released soon after WordPress 3.4.

    I found WP_DEBUG after I posted my comment, and turned it off when I realized its effect. But thanks for the reply. I’ll look forward to the new version when it comes out.

    BTW this is a bit off topic but I have been trying to integrate BuddyPress into one of the xScape themes, newsScape to be exact, and it has been quite a challenge. xScape has built in spupport for bbPress, but the way it builds its pages differs a good bit from the standard, so its not compatible with BuddyPress using the documented procedures.

    I am taking the code within the BuddyPress templates and redoing some of them to create shortcodes that I can add in a post or page just so the content of the page will contain what your templates would put there. To do this I am trying to write functions that mimic the logic of the templates but return the content rather than echo it.

    Is there anything coming down the pipes for BuddyPress that might make this effort unnecessary?

    Again, thanks!
