Plugin Description
Post toolbar for bbPress 2.0.
- Toolbar is automatically shown, though it can be set to manual insertion.
- Enables embedding of images in a bbPress post (turn it on in the settings).
- Users can upload images directly to the site (Valums’ Ajax Upload script)
- Allows <span style=””> in a bbPress posts.
- Embeds online videos from multiple providers (Dailymotion, LiveLeak, Megavideo, Metacafe, Vimeo, YouTube,) using http://…
- Also provides a shortcode.
- Embeds online pastebins from multiple providers (GitHub’s Gist, Pastebin.com) using [paste]http://…[/paste]
- Toolbar items all pluggable, defaults can be turned off and replaced by custom ones.
- Default item set is formatting, smilies, and videos.
- Custom CSS styling of the bar.
- Custom button ordering.
An example of the toolbar is on the forum on my website.
I would prefer it if support and feedback is placed on my forum because I’ll check my website more often than WordPress’ plugin forums.
I have a GitHub repository for this project here.
Bug reports, feature requests and other issues can be reported through the GitHub Issues system.
Any donations will be gratefully accepted. 😉
To Do
- Go to sleep.
- Clean some things.
- Other things that I can’t figure out yet.
- Relax and have a cup of hot chocolate.
Custom Buttons
The following is about standard push buttons, not panel opening buttons. To see how a panel opening button works just view the bbpress-post-toolbar.php source.
Adding custom buttons to the toolbar is done using by making a plugin and adding a filter to hook into the button.
My example below is how I added the Spoiler button to the toolbar, which is my modification of the Tiny Spoiler plugin.
Note: This isn’t my only modification to Tiny Spoiler. I had to also build a function to parse the [spoiler] shortcode inside a bbPress post.
function bbp_5o1_spoiler_add_to_toolbar($items) {
$javascript = <<<JS
function(){ insert_shortcode('spoiler') }
JS;
$items[] = array( 'action' => 'api_item',
'inside_anchor' => '<img src="'. site_url() . '/wp-content/plugins/tiny-spoiler/spoiler_btn.png" title="Spoiler" alt="Spoiler" />',
'data' => $javascript);
return $items;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_5o1_toolbar_add_items' , 'bbp_5o1_spoiler_add_to_toolbar' );
Available JavaScript Functions
Really, just look inside toolbar.js
- Insert an HTML tag:
insert_data('tag')
- (returns , potentially wrapped around text)
- Insert a shortcode tag:
insert_shortcode('tag')
- (returns [tag][/tag], potentially wrapped around text)
- Insert a smiley:
insert_smiley(':)')
- Insert a color:
insert_color('red')
- Insert a size:
insert_size('5pt')
testText(tag_s, tag_e) can be used to try to wrap a start- and end-tag around selected text. If there is text selected then the tag will be applied at the end of the post content wrapped around a single space.
Available Action/Filter hookers
These are filters or actions that I have made to make buttons populate the bar:
- apply_filters( ‘bbp_5o1_toolbar_add_items’, array() );
- do_action( ‘bbp_5o1_toolbar_css’ );
- …
