GD bbPress Toolbox Pro 3.0 Beta 1

Brand new plugin version, almost full rewrite from old 2.0 plugin version, GD bbPress Toolbox is the first of Dev4Press plugins to get complete overhaul. New plugin brings new interface, new features, improved performance and vastly improved loading. This is first Beta release.

Notice: This is Beta version, and it is not yet fully completed and ready for use on live websites. Please, test this version on your development servers, and let me know if you find any problems. All the Beta feedback will be used to finish the plugin as soon as possible are release stable 3.0. Some features are not yet completed: Import, Export and Reset tools are in works, about panels still need work. Attachments on the front end will need some more work on the visual side.

Plugin supports bbPress 2.3 or newer, and WordPress 3.5 and newer. It contains new features: BBCodes toolbar, new tweaks, user stats with user avatars on each topic/reply, import/export/reset tools, improved signatures. New version brings new fully responsive admin interface with no use of jQueryUI. Attachments and Error panels are using native WordPress Lists. This is the interface that will be used for all other Dev4Press plugins soon. Also, interface and many front end elements use FontAwesome font icons font.

When installing this version, plugin will go through installation phase (other 3.x version will be upgraded, this version is initial installation). During this phase, plugin will import existing settings from previous version if it finds them. Plugin is tested only with WordPress 3.8.1 right now.

Let me know of any issues with new version, if you have any suggestions. I will release on more Beta on Tuesday or Wednesdays with final 3.0 coming out next Monday.

  1. What a nightmare. Cannot find this plugin in WP anymore and downloaded what was here and it’s a total trainwreck. Nothing works. Where can someone get the old good plugin?

    • Can you explain please? This plugin GD bbPress Toolbox was never available on WordPress.org, it is a Pro plugin and you need to purchase a license to download and use it.
