hi.
what do you mean “(don’t forget about the correct )” !?!
Do you mean remove one or add one?
It is not at all clear.
Running latest release of BP 1.2 … can make it work.
Thanks.

Support Forums (run nongroup forums)
Geez, this is the issue thats keeping me from migrating everything into wordpress/buddypress/bbpress
i want a full fledged forum like phpbb but there’s no bridge for wordpress-phpbb3 that works well… finally i’ve found bbpress and its adequate but i can’t find a theme that integrates the 2… finally found buddypress but it has a broken forum implementation
will wait for your next release before i start migrating!

when you remove the if statement to check for the last page, don’t forget about removing the closing end if statement.
also for quote to work, you need to add the action `bp_forum_extras_topic_links` next to the permalink.
Probably with buddypress wrapping bbpress – they took out all the standard hooks in the template.

Hi, Great work!
Is this a good plugin for a forum for my WPMU site, that someday may evolve into a BuddyPress site. Which forum plugin(s) do I need for WPMU?
Thank you.

Hello,
On the theme I am using the BBCode buttons appear stacked one on top of each other. Could you please advise how to change them to appear next to each other?

Only tested against the default theme – there is a javascript file that inserts the bbcode buttons. You may need to modify this or your theme. (all take from _ck_ plugin) The javascript function is called BBcodeButtonsToolbar which creates a div
