@ddean When I download version 1.1.7 the plugin is not being picked up by WordPress.. not sure why, but the download seems to be incomplete and does not […]

I’m getting the same error on BuddyPress 1.9.2..

I think this sort of an approach to selling themes is a bit too vague for potential customers. I think pretty much all people would like to purchase/use a theme that is working out of the box and has some support and guarantees. […]

Bowe posted on the forum topic Community Activate v0.1.0 in the group Third Party Components & Plugins:
I love this concept and I think it can work very well for certain communities.. In fact I might be able to use it in a upcoming project
I’ll give it a test spin this week! -
They way JJJ describes it would be the way to go imo.. Looking at the BBPress beta this seems to work well, and it would make things a lot easier (and more fun). I have another question about templating though; 1: Using get_template instead of locate template Is there a reason why locate template is used [...]

I’d like to chip in on making BP-Default 1.3 awesome as well

@JJJ: Yeah I thought about the performance implications. Although I must say that the opinions about this are vastly different. a few http requests might make it slower, but these days that might not a big deal if theme development would be a lot easier. Actually combining adminbar.css, reset.css and using style.css for the base layout [...]

I’m interested in working on the bp-default theme. Some ideas: – Splitting up the bp-default.css file into smaller CSS files on a per component basis. Then in turn load these stylesheets conditionally using the BP conditionals.. Ideally you would end up with: Base.css (all the layout, typography and regular WP styling for posts and pages) [...]

Bowe started the forum topic New Plugin: BuddyPress Shortcodes in the group Third Party Components & Plugins:
A while back I thought about ways to make BuddyPress integrate with the regular posts and pages within WordPress better. I had no idea to properly display BuddyPress information in posts, sidebar or templates. So I came up with the idea to use WordPress Shortcodes to display BuddyPress related content anywhere. Imath created the plugin, [...]

Bowe started the forum topic The current state of BuddyPress: A critical analysis - New post on BP-Tricks in the group Requests & Feedback:
Hi guys, I know this discussion has been held before a pretty long time ago, but I took the time to write down something about how I think BuddyPress and the community in general, is doing. You can read it here: http://bp-tricks.com/featured/the-current-state-of-buddypress-a-critical-anylyzis-of-the-project/ Hopefully it will spark a healthy (and…[Read more]

Bowe posted on the forum topic How to disable ajax loader in activity stream? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting:
Disabling the Ajax functionality for the main stream would be a bad idea.. it would kill the activity stream.. not sure if it’s even possible. What type of problems do you have with Ajax? Could be plugin related (JS conflict). Also what theme are you using?

You can map profile fields from Facebook to BuddyPress with WP-FB-Autoconnect with custom code. It is indeed on the roadmap!

Bowe posted on the forum topic Confict between Yoast´s Wordpress SEO and buddypress in the group How-To and Troubleshooting:
Mmmm weird.. BuddyPress and WordPress SEO just work fine both enabled. The trick I posted is to offer full compatibility for WP SEO URL rewriting. If you get completely blank BuddyPress pages something is really messed up. I did not know Hybrid worked with BuddyPress but I think the error is to be found there. [...]
