Hi there!

Im developer of BP Better Messages.

BP Better Messages

I found this great plugin and decided to integrate my plugin to this one to implement private messages in this forum plugin.

It will also show button to write private message in another user profile:

And simple link in thread views:

Hope you will like it!

Thanks!

Hi there!

Would be much appreciated if you can add abit more hooks in some of future updates.
My integration is abit hacky at the moment, wish to make it more legit, if possible.

Thanks!

It is a pity that this plugin does not contain a German language file.

Hello @wordplus

Can you let me know which additional hooks you need? I am always happy to add additional ones to the core of the plugin! 🙂

Got a lot of it done.

Unfortunately, I didn’t know everything.

@asgaros

In this file:
wp-content/plugins/asgaros-forum/includes/forum.php

function forum() {
...
}

Custom plugin developers like me need add_filter function for error, before this part of code is executed:

if (!empty($this->error)) {
            echo '<div class="error">'.$this->error.'</div>';
} else {

Also to hook into nicely to the forum template, we need hook into this switch, so we can hook into layout natively:

switch ($this->current_view) {
                    case 'search':
                        $this->search->show_search_results();
                    break;
                    case 'subscriptions':
                        $this->notifications->show_subscription_overview();
                    break;
                    case 'movetopic':
                        $this->showMoveTopic();
                    break;
                    case 'forum':
                        $this->show_forum();
                    break;
                    case 'topic':
                        $this->showTopic();
                    break;
                    case 'addtopic':
                    case 'addpost':
                    case 'editpost':
                        $this->editor->showEditor($this->current_view);
                    break;
                    case 'profile':
                        $this->profile->showProfile();
                    break;
                    case 'history':
                        $this->profile->show_history();
                    break;
                    case 'members':
                        $this->memberslist->show_memberslist();
                    break;
                    case 'activity':
                        $this->activity->show_activity();
                    break;
                    case 'unread':
                        $this->unread->show_unread_topics();
                    break;
                    case 'unapproved':
                        $this->approval->show_unapproved_topics();
                    break;
                    case 'reports':
                        $this->reports->show_reports();
                    break;
                    default:
                        $this->overview();
                    break;
                }

If you can add hooks in this 2 places, would be perfect!

Thanks!

Hello @wordplus

I added a filter for the error-message which will be available with the upcoming update:

https://github.com/Asgaros/asgaros-forum/commit/e82f583f4cf93b51a38bf38e7e1ea76208895faa

Filter for views will be added later – feel free to add one in a PR in the meantime if its urgent. 🙂
