BuddyPress.org

I doubt it would be easy to integrate WP-United, phpBB3, and BuddyPress. It certainly sounds like it would work in theory, doesn’t it? However, these people don’t seem to be reporting much success:

I’ll give it a try tonight, and let you know what works and what fails.

The irony of “BuddyPress shouldn’t be about forums”, and “if you want a forum, don’t use BP” and “bbPress is a parasite in BP…” is that the FORUM is the center point of activity here on buddypress.org. Almost all of the live activity here among you developers, admins, etc. is based in the forum. When was […]

That’s exactly what I’m trying to do – move to the next or previous post based on the original topic time, not the most recent comment time. Not sure if this exists in bbPress but it’s a core navigational feature of phpbb. When I get a chance I’m going to look at bbpress/phpbb code to […]

I’m following anabel. I’m her first follower!

But apparently not the first to notice her in the past 2 hours, 30 minutes: https://buddypress.org/community/members/anabel4you/

Yo MODs… ban hammer??

one starting point is to check out the Group Blog plugin by Burt Adsit, because BP will not automatically add your users to a group blog otherwise. quickpost form in the theme would be helpful – you can hack the posthaste plugin, use TDO Mini Forms, or wait for the BP “quickpost” function that I […]

@gezan – I agree 100% – the plugin page looks very solid. The other is a bit ‘meh’.

Just a note that burtadsit’s “group blog” plugin is perfect for your situation. check it out.

There are a couple “persistent notification” issues ongoing, though at least one of them has a fix committed now: https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset/2921

helpme1, if you’re able to edit your code, that may help with at least one of the issues you have?

That was my first thought too – so hopefully a simple matter of truncating the slug to the desired length at the bp-forums level?

OK, here is the exact problem. The correct permalink to this page is as follows:…[Read more]

au contraire, mon frere… please go to the activity page and click on the hash (#). It brings up an Andy Peatling post about “BuddyPress now has it’s own bbPress forums…” (sorry for not adequately explaining in my initial post that I meant permalinks on the activity page!) It may be user/browser specific – even […]

@el_terko discovered that too-long topic titles break permalinks (#s) in the activity stream. Try clicking the permalink for any of the “promiscuous” topic items in the activity stream and it links you to a year- old thread.

I noticed “add friend” was replaced by “follow.”
Andy Peatling addressed this somewhere on testbp.org. The upshot is that “follow” is an additional module, not a replacement for “friend” (though you are right, on this site, friending is now disabled in favor of following, which I like a lot).
