Display phpBB notifications in WordPress

Hi there!

user’s name and avatar, which have been transfered from phpBB to WordPress

nothing transferred: all is given by queries, plugin code just retrieve data to display from phpBB into WordPress.

– yes it is possible.
there is option on plugin admin page:
Activate notify Read/Unread Private Messages into Admin Tool Bar

the code has been tested and work fine into default wp twentysixteen theme, and should on any that display the default admin bar on top, because the event attach to it. If not work, let me know (this part will be improved/rewrite before 2.0.0), with the problem you found and may the theme you use.

You aim to some other notification also? Or just pm?

Thank you for the quick reply.

I’m talking about the notifications introduced in phpBB 3.1, which are sent to you when you receive PMs, but also in other occasions:

Notifications alert you to events that have taken place on the board. They will appear in the Notifications menu at the top of your screen. Events include:
– New Private Message has arrived
– New topic was created in a subscribed forum
– New post was created in a subscribed topic
– A new post is awaiting moderation
– A post has been reported
– Your topic/post has been approved/disapproved
– You have been quoted in a post

I’d like to display those in WordPress, and make them visible for every user, not just for admins in the admin tool bar.

It would be nice if I could display them with a shortcode, like the last topics.

I’d like to display those in WordPress, and make them visible for every user, not just for admins in the admin tool bar.

the front end admin tool bar is intended to display for any user, not only for admins, in +- any theme.
As wp admin tool bar, it’s intended the bar that display on top, after an user successfully logged in, not only admins.
If a theme do not use the default wp-admin tool bar hook to display info to the user, then the hook will not fire as it’s coded and it’s required to attach it to another hook.

OK i understand the requirement:

all things about this will be rewrite and improved within 2.0.0 version, at moment it’s possible to display pm notifications on default admin tool bar: news posts or topics notifications info are ready and coded (all the necessary is already there). What’s is needed is to adjust a function to unify all these info to be used with easy by anyone into any template. This i will aim to do within 1.9.9 or 2.0.0 version or possible also before.

Alright, thanks. I’m looking forward to the next updates then ??
