I noticed that some wpforo functions echo directly, instead of returning a string.

For example wpforo_unread, wpforo_phrase, wpforo_topic_title, ecc

This can't allow developers to manipulate the value generated by the functions, nor allow to put save them in a variable.

There are versions of these functions that return string?

(moreover: there is a developer documentation? I didn't find it)

Thanks 🙂

Hi @mpanichi,

all of these Functions have argument named $echo, if you call the function with $echo argument = false it would not print the string, it will only return.

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.
