    Hi. Great codes first off really has helped me accomplish what I am trying to do, which is make a widget that combines Post and Comments into one recent view widget. I haven’t tried it yet but also planning on trying to incorporate bbPress forum posts and replies as well. What I am having trouble with is getting links to the authors profile and the date to format properly. I am using bbPress and BuddyPress in this as well.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    As far as I know, bbPress and BuddyPress store their data in custom formats, which is not supported (yet) by this plugin. Don’t they have shortcodes to display their content?

    Several people have asked about supporting these forum plugins, so I’m considering it. It’s not simple, because of how they store the content in the database. The data is retrieved in a special way – different for each plugin – not like normal posts or fields.

    So, at the moment, this plugin doesn’t provide functions to support them.

    bbPress does but BuddyPress doesn’t at least that I can find yet.

    But is there a way to make the dates for comments and posts the same. I tried with date-format with comments and it didn’t work at all.

    Hello, thank you for telling me about comment dates – in the latest plugin update, they should display in the same format as posts.
