Thanks @r-a-y. Will disable the plugin for now. I did find that if I added the short YouTube link the video would display.

mariapeagler posted an update in the group oEmbed for BuddyPress 1 year, 7 months ago

@r-a-y I’ve been used oembed for a while and really enjoy it. In fact, I donated to the plugin I’ve been so happy with it. But recently many of my YouTube links just stopped working: they display the link as text, not the video. And it’s random as to which videos oembed display and which it just shows the text for. Any ideas on why this…[Read more]

mariapeagler posted on the forum topic Video Must Be Public on YouTube to Display in the group oEmbed for BuddyPress: 2 years, 1 month ago

This has turned out to be a bigger issue than I previously thought. Any screencast, video, or other tutorial I upload to YouTube has to be public to display in BuddyPress, which pretty much negates the whole point of having paid website content. I develop and deliver online courses, but if people can see the [...]

mariapeagler posted on the forum topic Can't Add Hyperlinked Text within ScholarPress Content in the group BuddyPress ScholarPress Courseware: 2 years, 2 months ago

Thanks Stas. You are super fast responding to questions here on the forum. The weird thing about the list formatting is that it works outside of the courseware. I’m using the BuddyBase theme, not the default theme, and on a regular page or post it works fine. It’s only in the courseware that it doesn’t [...]

Also, just realized formatting for bulleted and numbered lists is off. After the first line, the text wraps to the beginning of the paragraph, not underneath the bulleted text. Basically, the indention in those lists is being ignored. Does not look professional at all. I may not be able to use ScholarPress if I can’t [...]

I’ve tried this from both the Course Description and New Assignment, and the link feature doesn’t work. In fact, it doesn’t do anything: no error, no result at all when I click on the link button. I realize I can add websites and books in the bibliography, but I need these in the body text. [...]

Thanks Stats. Not a problem, just will tell students not to worry about them.

Look forward to Pages for each group.

I upgraded my test site to WordPress 3.1, and when I did the option for users to create their own accounts disappeared from the home page, and the link from the Add User page under Users in the back end disappeared too. I’ve searched here on the Support forum but didn’t see this addressed. Anyone [...]

Duh, I just figured out I didn’t have “Anyone can register” checked under General Settings. Hopefully this will help someone else out!

mariapeagler started the forum topic [Solved] Best Way to Create Group Content and Make Private? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 2 years, 2 months ago

I’ve got WordPress single user and BuddyPress installed for an online course site, and thought I would need a different BP install for each course. Andrea suggested using Groups for each course, and I’m wondering what the best way to add content to the group would be. Would I need a separate blog for each [...]

Figured it out, for my purposes, I’m using the ScholarPress plugin, which makes it much easier. I actually created the multi-site setup and found it was far more than I wanted to maintain.

Hi – I’m thrilled to have found ScholarPress, as I think it will serve my needs for my online course site without having to enable multi-site and blogs for each course. This is a much simpler solution! Is it possible to disable the due dates and calendar for the courseware? I’m developing online courses for [...]

mariapeagler started the forum topic Video Must Be Public on YouTube to Display in the group oEmbed for BuddyPress: 2 years, 2 months ago

Just figured this out and thought it might help others too. I’m using oEmbed and tried embedding a video that was first private, then I changed the status in YouTube to unlisted, so anyone with the link could watch it. No go. It has to be public. Otherwise, all that shows up is the text. [...]

mariapeagler reviewed the plugin oEmbed for BuddyPress: 2 years, 2 months ago

Easiest way for a non-geek to embed video into BuddyPress. Saved me hours of searching for the “right” plug-in, testing, etc. You don’t even have to add the video using the WordPress video link: you just type the URL as plain text, and when you display the page, post, or Activity stream, voila – there’s your video. Thanks for making my…[Read more]

I’ve created a BuddyPress site and whenever someone registers their activitation email comes from a generic server email that I’ve never used. I’ve contacted BlueHost and they said this is a WordPress/BuddyPress issue. I’ve created the email specified in the General Settings, I’ve installed both plug-ins that are supposed to fix this, and nothing…[Read more]
