Jomy Muttathil started the forum topic multisite subdirectory install compatibility in the group Biblefox Development: 4 days, 4 hours ago · View
Hi Richard. Very cool plugin/site you have here. I am trying to incorporate the Biblefox plugin into my site(s). The problem I am having is that the /bible directory doesn’t show up. I am wondering if this feature is incompatible with a multisite subdirectory install? I am using a multisite subdirectory install… http://cciog.com/ –main church [...]

I would add an argument to the refs_read_by_user() which pulls in the references that the user actually commented on. This would allow for 2 separate lists. 1. those scriptures the user has read 2. those scriptures the user has commented on or blogged about You absolutely nailed the percentage_of_book() function. I can see how it [...]

Having separate Biblefox template directories would really open up a lot of possibilities, esp as the api is more fully developed. It would allow me to style the Biblefox portion completely different from the rest of the site. I do like the idea of the expanded template tags and functions. That would provide me the [...]

shawn posted on the forum topic spanish translations? in the group Biblefox Development: 6 days, 5 hours ago · View
I have 3 spanish speaking friends who are pastors, so getting the translations into Spanish should be fairly simple for me. I will upgrade to (0.8.3) and get the information to them next week. They are on a crusade at the moment. I can walk them through the process of translating the .mo files by [...]

Yeah, I hate the spam, but I’m not too excited about any of the solutions people have mentioned. Things have gotten worse lately though, so I might just do some of those. My main tactic so far has been to have a ‘favorite bible references’ field which requires an actual bible reference. It definitely blocks [...]

So, let me try to divide this idea up into some useful template tag functions: One function (we’ll call it refs_read_by_user()) could return all the Bible references that a user has commented on or has read as part of a reading plan. Another function could take a list of Bible references and a book and [...]

That’s a great idea. I think what I should do is make Biblefox more like a platform in of itself so ideas like that can be easy to make on your own. So perhaps you create your own theme template for the Bible Directory. I could create a template tag function that returns the current [...]

I added a .pot file to the plugin in the latest version (0.8.3). If you someone would want to make a Spanish .mo file from that that would be great. But, translating Biblefox into Spanish is more complicated than just creating a mo file. Biblefox contains a list of abbreviations for books of the Bible [...]

I was trying to add a bible translation, but I can’t understand the instructions.
This is my URL: http://www.biblegateway.com/versions/New-King-James-Version-NKJV-Bible/
I guess that it needs to be modified?? with ”%ref%” or this ”%book%”
I don’t understand the example, could you give me an example using my URL?
I am very impressed with your plugin, it worked right out of the box, it is the only part of BuddyPress that did.
Thanks in advance for any help
Sure thing, going to that URL you mentioned you can see the table of contents, so you can just click on Genesis 1 for example and it goes to this URL:
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+1&version=NKJVThat is the URL you want to use, just replacing Genesis+1 with %ref%, so you would use:
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=%ref%&version=NKJVIt is kind of confusing, I know.
Also, Bible Gateway has a print interface which looks much nicer in iframes, so I would use that. Just add ”&interface=print” to the URL, so use this URL instead:
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/index.php?search=%ref%&version=NKJV&interface=printAnd they also have a mobile interface which looks nice too:
http://mobile.biblegateway.com/passage/index.php?search=%ref%&version=NKJVThat worked great, and now that I know how to do it, I understand the instructions, its obvious.
I liked the print interface it has less links.
When we get our theme working I’ll stop back and show off.
Thanks so much for the plugin and the help.

@Richard I noticed this site is getting hammered by the spam bots lately. Seems that every time you come in and clean it up, they come right back. Here is a pretty good discussion about bp spam with some ideas and plugins that actually work pretty well. http://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/buddypress-spam/?topic_page=3&num=15#post-69499 I’d ignore the captcha as it is useless, [...]

concept: A person’s profile page would list all the chapters of the Bible on a single page. Each chapter which the user has completed as a Bible study and either made a comment about or written a blog post about would be highlighted with a link to their comments or post about that scripture. reason: [...]

I was doing a generic demo of the plugin itself for another pastor friend. I had him type in a chapter in the Bible so the reader would show the chapter he requested. After I showed him how he could make an activity comment about the scripture the first thing he asked me was how [...]

shawn posted on the forum topic Does the plugin include the Bible search and reading plans addons? in the group Biblefox Development: 2 weeks, 5 days ago · View
any news on the updated plugin with the reading plan and search functionality? I’m pretty much in the middle of getting my ‘framework’ install setup, and would love the opportunity to add in these features for testing. Obviously I don’t mind ‘hacky’ code, as I can get my way around pretty good. It is going [...]

thanks for looking into it. I erased the website and started over so the links are no longer valid. I’m in the middle of getting ready for multi-network buddypress, and had to get a lot of things situated first. I will be doing a lot more testing shortly and will report back anything new that [...]

I’m just curious if you happen to have any translation available in spanish that I can add to my server translations. I prefer the KJV, but beggars can’t be choosers lol.. also curious: I know that I don’t have the reading plans portion of the plugin yet, but by any chance is it setup for [...]
