=== bbPress Admin Bar Addition === Contributors: daveshine Donate link: http://genesisthemes.de/en/donate/ Tags: adminbar, admin bar, bbpress, bbpress 2.0, administration, resources, links, forum, forum moderator, deckerweb Requires at least: 3.1 Tested up to: 3.3 Stable tag: 1.0 This plugin adds useful admin links and resources for the bbPress 2.x Forum Plugin to the WordPress Admin Bar. == Description == This small and lightweight plugin just adds a lot bbPress 2.x related resources to your admin bar. Also links to all setting/ tab pages of the plugin are added making life for forum administrators/ moderators a lot easier. So you might just switch from the fontend of your site to 'Topics' or 'Main Settings' page etc. As the name suggests this plugin is intended towards forum admins/ webmasters and moderators. The new admin bar entries will only be displayed if the current user has the bbPress/ WordPress cabability of `moderate`. (Note: I am open for suggestions here if this should maybe changed to a more suitable cabability.) = Plugin/ Theme Support = At this time the plugin out of the box supports also links to settings pages of some bbPress 2.x specific plugins: * Plugin: ["GD bbPress Attachments" (free, by Dev4Press)](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gd-bbpress-attachments/) * Plugin: ["bbPress Post Toolbar" (free, by Jason Schwarzenberger)](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-post-toolbar/) * Plugin: ["bbPress reCaptcha" (free, by Pippin Williamson)](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-recaptcha/) * Plugin: ["bbPress2 BBCode" (free, by Anton Channing + bOingball + Viper007Bond)](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-bbcode/) * Plugin: ["bbPress2 Shortcode Whitelist" (free, by Anton Channing)](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress2-shortcode-whitelist/) * Your plugin/ theme? - [Just contact me with specific data](http://genesisthemes.de/en/contact/) = Special Features = * Not only supporting official bbPress 2.x sites ALSO third-party and user links - so just the whole bbPress 2.x ecosystem :) * Link to downloadable German language packs - only displayed when German locales are active (de_DE, de_AT, de_CH, de_LU) * Link to official German bbPress forum - only displayed when German locales are active (de_DE, de_AT, de_CH, de_LU) * NOTE: I would be happy to add more language/locale specific resources and more useful third-party links - just contact me! = Localization = * English (default) - always included * German - always included * .pot file (`bbpaba.pot`) for translators is also always included :) * Your translation? - [Just send it in](http://genesisthemes.de/en/contact/) Credit where credit is due: This plugin here is inspired and based on the work of Remkus de Vries @defries and his awesome "WooThemes Admin Bar Addition" plugin.

Upload the entire `bbpress-admin-bar-addition` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress 3. Look at your admin bar and enjoy using the new links there :) 4. Go and manage your forum :) == Frequently Asked Questions == = How are new resources being added to the admin bar? = Just drop me a note on [my Twitter @deckerweb](http://twitter.com/deckerweb) or via my contact page and I'll add the link if it is useful for admins/ webmasters and the bbPress community. = How could my plugin/extension or theme options page be added to the admin bar links? = This is possible of course and highly welcomed! Just drop me a note on [my Twitter @deckerweb](http://twitter.com/deckerweb) or via my contact page and we sort out the details! Particularly, I need the admin url for the primary options page (like so `wp-admin/admin.php?page=foo`) - this is relevant for both, plugins and themes. For themes then I also need the correct name defined in the stylesheet (like so `Footheme`) and the correct folder name (like so `footheme-folder`) because this would be the template name when using with child themes. (I don't own all the premium stuff myself yet so you're more than welcomed to help me out with these things. Thank you!) = There are still some other plugins for bbPress 2.x out there why aren't these included by default? = Simple answer: The settings of these add-ons are added directly to the bbPress main settings page and have no anchor to link to. So linking/ adding is just impossible. == Screenshots == 1. bbPress Admin Bar Addition in default state (running with WordPress 3.3-RC here) 2. bbPress Admin Bar Addition in action - primary level (running with WordPress 3.3-RC here) 3. bbPress Admin Bar Addition in action - a secondary level (running with WordPress 3.3-RC here) == Changelog == = 1.0 = * Initial release == Upgrade Notice == = 1.0 = Just released into the wild. == Translations == * English - default, always included * German: Deutsch - immer dabei! [Download auch via deckerweb.de](http://deckerweb.de/material/sprachdateien/bbpress-forum/#bbpress-admin-bar-addition) Note: All my plugins are localized/ translateable by default. This is very important for all users worldwide. So please contribute your language to the plugin to make it even more useful. For translating I recommend the awesome ["Codestyling Localization" plugin](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/codestyling-localization/) and for validating the ["Poedit Editor"](http://www.poedit.net/). == Additional Info == **Idea Behind / Philosophy:** Just a little leightweight plugin for all the bbPress Forum managers out there to make their daily forum admin life a bit easier.
