I solved the issue: the filename was incorrect. The original file in /includes/languages/ is named:
bp-album-es.mo

I changed the filename to bp-album-es_ES.mo

Works!

@boonebgorges sure. You don’t happen to have a patch for this? It is a pretty severe issue – as site links, written in ugly format, stop working. So, anybody upgrading to 1.5, with front page = Activity has a major problem. thanks!

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 6 months ago]

Thanks for responding @mercime. I found the cause. I reported a bug on Trac (3747).

When Front page = a Static BuddyPress page (eg, Activity), the previews do not work, nor do ugly links inside pages test page

When front page = Static Page (= a not BP Page), the previews work correctly, and also the ugly links inside pages test page

When I select Front Page = Forums, I get a “This webpage has a redirect loop” error.

I tested this on my installation, after deactivating all plugins and the default theme. I checked .htaccess, and it is correct.

I reproduced this on a new WP 3.2.1. install, with BP 1.5.1. , on a separate domain.

I also love some advice on cache plugins for buddypress, in particular how to configure W3TC. Strange that the W3TC plugin creator does not help out here. (Or have I missed that?)

Cool Paul – I’ll help translate your plugin. Yet, the most important issue is that disabling Email Customizationdoes not work (for me)

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 6 months ago]

thanks mercime – I do not see the Load More on the default theme 1.5.1 . And, yes it worked before.

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 6 months ago]

‘… it ought to have been picked up IF the translation files…’

Paul – with “it”, are you referring to the issue A) disabling of Email Customization or Language?

The language files did work correctly before activating welcome-pack, ie, the site showed in Spanish and BP emails where sent in Spanish.

To solve the A) issue, I disabled the whole plugin

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 6 months ago]

Found the email template! It is part of the welcome-pack plugin. Now, trying to figure out how to turn HTML emails off and plain text email = on.
welcome-pack/templates/welcome_pack_default.php

Definitely published

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 7 months ago]

Thanks Boone. The ?page_id= ? does not work either. When I click on the link, or enter the URL into the browser address bar, it redirects to my home-page. Will do some more testing. Maybe related to my particular install.

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 7 months ago]

There is another, related, issue: when installing and activating the plugin, the Admin / General / Settings are changed to “Allow Anyone can register”, even if these where previously set to “Do not allow anyone to register”

I changed settings back to “Do not allow anyone to register”, and tested again if one can fake an invite. And yes, entering the ACCEPTURL allows anybody to register, even though s/he has not been invited.

Here is how I upgraded to BuddyPress 1.5 beta 3 from BuddyPress 1.2.10
1) I deactivate all BP plugins (BP remains active)
2) I move old /buddypress/ (version 1.2.10) out of the folder /plugins/
3) I move the folder /1.5-beta-3/ into /plugins/ and rename it to /buddypress/
(the folder /1.5-beta-3/ results from unzipping the downloaded BP 1.5 beta file tags_1.5-beta-3-5058.zip)
4) in admin/plugins I refresh the page
On top of the plugin admin page I see a message that BuddyPress has been upgraded with an instruction to start upgrade wizard.
5) I run the wizard
6) I re-activate all BP plugins

Now, testing

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 8 months ago]

Aha … thanks Paul. What do I do with the current /buddypress/ ? Rename or delete (and deactivate) prior to adding the new 1.5 version of /buddypress/? Also, should I deactivate all other BP plugins (that’s what is recommended for normal BP upgrades).
Thanks!

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 8 months ago]

Resolved. It was related to BuddyPress Multilingual plugin.

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 8 months ago]

Voted 5 stars! Thanks for your efforts!

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 8 months ago]

Hi @foxly – thanks for a great plugin!

Was wondering… how stable is Bp-Media_Nightly_Build-2011-09-07.zip? Can it be used, even though certain bugs may reduce functionality. I got a small (less than 100 members) social network, and the BP-Media features would be great. I looked at your Issues list on code.google, but can’t tell if that release has lost of “show-stoppers” (ie, bugs that hinder a users to complete critical tasks).

Thanks!

[henrybcnMember @henrybcn 1 year, 12 months ago]

Thanks Mercime. I also see that BP 1.3 is planned to provide “Basic profile privacy – hide from public / only friends”

Great how BP is evolving!
