Asgaros Forum v1.15.1: Maintenance Release

#1 · August 27, 2019, 1:10 pm

I am happy to announce version 1.15.1 of the Asgaros Forum plugin for WordPress which comes with a couple of improvements.

Filter for Widgets

A new option in the widgets can be used to filter the output by forums.

Create Topics for WordPress pages & posts

A new meta box has been added to WordPress pages and posts which allows you to create a new topic in a specific forum including their content.

Additional Changes

asgarosforum_widget_recent_posts_custom_content is now a filter
asgarosforum_widget_recent_topics_custom_content is now a filter
Updated Font Awesome to version 5.10.2
Minor design changes
Performance improvements and code optimizations

Version 1.15.1 of Asgaros Forum will be available in the next 7 days via the WordPress Updater!

@asgaros I know that I already wrote somewhere, but I can’t find how to change the color of the heading (background) of one of the categories.

@rusev You can use the following css-code:

#forum-category-4 {
    background-color: red !important;
}

@asgaros

How do I activate the Create Topics feature? I couldn’t see this feature in the theme component area.

edit : ok i found this property. shown in page editing. But this is not what I want. I thought it was a quick thread opening plugin 🙂

@glen You have to edit a page/post in the backend, select the forum in the meta-box and save this page/post. After that a topic got created for this page/post in the selected forum.

@asgaros After updating the code does not work

Personally I put this in my child theme (style.css)

#af-wrapper .title-element#forum-category-4{
   background-color: red !important;
}

I just updated my plugin to 1.15.1 and updated my WP to 5.2.2. If I recall, as part of the WP update it did some sort of database update as well.

It seems that one of these upgrades caused me to loose all of my Asgaros Forum categories and posts. My basic forum setup data is ok. I checked in my db and it looks like I still have all of my data. Here is a snippet of the the tables for wp_forum. Please let me know how I can recover these posts.
