Conflict Warning

Extra Configuration

Ajaxed Quote Link

Include a reply box on all pages for ajaxed quote, remove this if statement in the same groups/single/forum/topic.php file

<?php if ( bp_get_the_topic_is_last_page() ) : ?>

(don’t forget about the corresponding <?php endif; ?> )

If your theme was not updated for 1.2.5 – then an action hook bp_group_forum_post_meta is missing from the topic template file. Please update your theme.

Activity on Topic Posts

edit the bp-default theme file: groups/single/forum/topic.php

Replace:

</li>

<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul><!-- !-- #topic-post-list -->

With:

</li>

<?php do_action( 'bp_forum_extras_add_after_post_content_li' ) ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul><!-- !-- #topic-post-list -->

Link the freshness time_since to the last post

edit /bp-default/forums/forums-loop.php

Change:

<td>
    <?php bp_the_topic_time_since_last_post() ?>
</td>

To:

<td>
    <a href="<?php echo bp_forum_extras_topic_last_post_link( 15 ); ?>"><?php bp_the_topic_time_since_last_post() ?></a>
</td>

Note: 15 per_page is default for bp_has_forum_topic_posts – you may need to change this if you use a different per_page in the loop.
