  • Paul – Do you know off hand if a hook exists to modify the place in core that records the name in the activity table? I know you suggested usernames to match core to @nicholmikey btu I’d like to look into […]

    On the forums page, the search field/function kicks you back to the home page and returns no results. There is no “no results found” message either

    @FanQuake Thanks. That does help. Assuming you guys realize this is quite confusing on the site as presented.

    Any way I could get you to pick a quarter e.g. 2012Q2 in which bp-album might be be release (at least in beta)?

    @Xevo I understand that bp-album and bp-media have pretty much nothing to do with each other. I do feel it can be misleading to associate them as versions of each other. I would imagine that all ref to bp-album […]

    From my perspective, there so much information presented on the code project site, I have trouble figuring out when the large gap between what is in the .1.8 release and the current build. @foxly, please don’t […]

  • Mike Pratt posted on the forum topic New Events Plugin - Testing Stage in the group Creating & Extending:

    Dude – I want it. I have mixed feelings about the GSOC Eventpress effort. It’s kinda bloated and there is still too difficult a workflow process (I’d have to tweak all of the templates just to de-confuse my members)

    How can I get my hands on this and take for a spin?

    I’d like to have a user’s FB activity added to their BP activity stream but not the other way around eg pull in but not post out. is that possible with this plugin?

  • Mike Pratt posted on the forum topic Is bp dying a slow death? in the group Miscellaneous:

    @hnla That’s exactly my point. I am not suggesting they take it on on their own accord – they need to be asked and guided in an engaged manner by the official leadership. If asked, I’d take on the responsibility with vigor. Instead, everything drifts. It should never be a one man show and no one [...]

  • Mike Pratt posted on the forum topic Is bp dying a slow death? in the group Miscellaneous:

    I think the main point is being missed here. As much as I love them and their work, Andy and jjj can’t do this all by themselves. So guys, I would ask you to wrap your arms around whomever you deem best suited to help you lead this community. We all know who those people [...]

  • Mike Pratt posted on the forum topic Is bp dying a slow death? in the group Miscellaneous:

    I would agree with @hnla. I accept all that @apeatling and @johnjamesjacoby are up to. The pace is absolutely no issue. The problem is that the BP dev community is langiushing. We need to accept that this is the current state. I’ll make this an open plea to Andy and John, et all to work with us to [...]

    the .1 in 1.2.4.1 implies very minor bug-fix type release NOT a site breaking update. #FAIL

  • @jeffsayre ‘s right. We figured it out thanks to his McGruff The Crime Dog Hook Sniffer plugin. I highly recommend if you want to do some serious under-the-hood looking

  • @Dwenaus is spot on guy, (IMHO) sorry. Let’s face it, the examples he gave all put their listing here for viz purposes only. It’s almost spam-like. The photo gallery one is the worst infraction as it is the most misleading. Everyone in BP-land anxiously awaits a fully BP aware image plugin (we’re talking ones that integrate [...]
