Hi, how to enable “Ajax based search for questions” ( Instant search while typing )? (You have a similar function in tags.)

I just link my category wordpress with Anspress with this code :

<?php

/**

* Allow adding post catgeory to question CPT.

*/

function my_ap_category_taxonomy_to_question() {

register_taxonomy_for_object_type( ‘category‘, ‘question‘ );

}

add_action( ‘init‘, ‘my_ap_category_taxonomy_to_question‘ );

 

But when I click in category order I can’t found wordpress category (look screenshoot) :

 

And when someone ask question I wan’t to put the question in good category here but in AnsPress Tools I can’t find the option :

Hi,

I just installed the plugin and I’m running into some issues.

Everything seems to work perfect. However when I click on one of the listed test questions that I created (called: What time is it), I am redirected to a page with the following description:
Not Found
The requested URL /qa/question/what-time-is-it/ was not found on this server.

Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu) Server at (site URL) Port 443How can I solve this problem?

Thanks.

Hi !

 

So I’ve been thinking about this for a while now, and one thing that really matters to users is to be sure that the content found on the Internet comes from trusted sources. For community-based websites like the ones which run Anspress, this is even more important.

No matter what the content of the answer is, if you cannot be sure you can trust is, what’s the point in the first place ?

To overcome this (big) issue, there are 2 complementary solutions :

  1. Enable users to add the sources for their answer in a separate field. This is the solution chosen by Wikipedia, where users have to write the references of what they say. This is also helpful for noobs who do not necessarily always understand an answer if they don’t have the necessary background knowledge. This field could be added to the Anspress answer submission form to push authors to be more accurate with their answers and also prevent them from writing content that only comes from beliefs of them. -> Facts facts facts !!
  2. Enable users to add their credentials to their answer, to show how they have authority in a specific domain.This is the solution chosen by Quora, where users have to write their credentials :

This shows why they have expertise on their answer. This field could be added to the Anspress answer submission form to show readers how authors have authority / knowledge / expertise over a  specific question. -> Expertise expertise expertise !!

I’m sure by adding these Anspress would be a much more reliable platform  🙂 🙂

What do you think of these ideas ?

Love to all <3

Good Afternoon,

I would like to programmaticaly assign wordpress-category to current question/answer,

And then display a page of question/asnwers only linked to a specific category

Hi,

First of all the plugin and the askbug theme is brilliant!

I’m experiencing an issue with the top users widget. We’ve imported 6k+ users from another forum as we are trying to migrate to askbug.

The plugin only managed to transfer firstname, lastname, username and email address. They were all assigned to the “AnsPress Participants” user role.

Now when we view the fronted it hangs after loading the header, and the error log lists the following message:

[14-Aug-2017 10:56:55 UTC] PHP Notice: Undefined index: title in …/themedir/includes/widgets/top_users.php on line 29
[14-Aug-2017 10:56:55 UTC] PHP Notice: Undefined index: number in …/themedir/includes/widgets/top_users.php on line 30
[14-Aug-2017 10:56:55 UTC] PHP Notice: Undefined index: avatar in …/themedir/includes/widgets/top_users.php on line 31

These lines are:
$title = apply_filters( ‘widget_title’, $instance[’title’] );
$number = $instance[’number’] ;
$avatar_size = $instance[’avatar’] ;

I’m guessing askbug is looking for a field which is normally created with a regular registration and missing when users are imported.

Can you please let me know which field these are so I can add them in manually?

I’m running Askbug Version: 3.0.11

Thanks!
