Hi TO,
Welcome to BuddyDev forums.

I am sorry but we don’t have any importer ready at the moment and the plan is to work on importers from second week of December.

If you are starting a fresh site, please do give MediaPress a try, for migration, I am sorry but will have to wait till late December.

Thank you
Brajesh

Hi Brayden,
you can update that code with this

$activity_id = bp_get_activity_id();
    
if( ! bp_is_anonymous_activity(  $activity_id ) ) :?>

	<a href="<?php bp_activity_user_link();?>" <span class="text-primary"><i class="fa fa-paper-plane"></i> View </span><?php echo $xprofile_user;?> Profile</a>
<?php else :?>
	<a href="#"><span class="text-primary"><i class="fa fa-paper-plane"></i> </span> Anonymous </a>
<?php endif;?>

Also, you can modify it as you need.

Hope that heps.

Hi James,
For the time being, you can put this in your bp-custom.php to allow direct publishing.

add_filter( 'bcg_form_args', 'bcg_custom_form_args' );

function bcg_custom_form_args( $args ) {
	$args['post_status'] = 'publish';
	
	return $args;
}

Please do note that this plugin is going through rewrite at the moment and we will have a version ready by next week that will allow you to select these settings from Settings page.

Hope that helps.

Hi Joshua,
I personally have used only 4 bbPress plugins till date.

1. Search BBPress 2.0 by Stephen Carrol:- Must if you need fully functional bbpress frum search

2. GetShopped Support forums:- Slightly modified version of it. Using to give users point and rank for the bbpress posts. Also It allows us various topic status like resolved etc.

3. bbPress Notify Admin:- Our very own plugin to get notifications whenever there is a new reply/new topic on the forum. It is very helpful if you are running support forums.

4. bbPress backtick:- Again our own implementation to allow using backticks for posting code in bbPress forums. There is an alternative available as bbp backtick.

That’s all I use. The first one is a must have for enhancing experience and the second helps you to have more engagement for the user.

Hope that helps.

Hi Joshua,
Apologies for delayed reply.

Please give the following code a spin.

<?php 
$css_class = '';
$unread_notifications = bp_notifications_get_unread_notification_count( get_current_user_id() );

if( $unread_notifications ){
	$css_class = 'has-new-notifications';
}

?>
<a href="<?php bp_notifications_permalink();?>" class="someclass <?php echo $css_class;?>"> Notification</a>

You will need to modify it for the icons or update for your theme but it shows how to add extra class when there are new notifications and link to the notifications page.

If you want to link to unread notifications, you may update the bp_notifications_permalink() with bp_notifications_unread_permalink()

Hope that helps.
