sorry for the delays on this, but I don’t have the plugin live on my installation at the moment pending other problems I had on my installation. such is the nature of single author plugins. Unfortunately, I can’t give a date for any changes or improvements to the existing plugin.

PS. The above is a message sent through testbp.org, so I assume it’s running the latest/greatest version.

No no, the opposite – I’m good. Works now.

Maybe I’m not understanding you, though – what I did is comment out the call to bp_get_forum_topic_count() in the bp-template. I think you’re saying I should stop that function from registering in the first place by commenting out the related do_action. That’s probably a cleaner approach.

Right, as I noted, you already get total_topic_count “for free” with $forum_template. “Try commenting out this line in /bp-forums.php and see if the memory problems persist.” Sorry to be unclear – yes, exactly – that’s how I found the problem. I did backtrack through the code, and I think you are right – it is […]

This worked, btw. Thanks again.

Thanks Paul! Will try it.

It blows my mind that this is not a core feature of WPMU, WP, or BuddyPress. It is the most obvious first defense against sploggers and spammer-members. There is a plugin called Pie Registration that claims to do user moderation of unverified users before they are allowed to post. It seems to be a resurrection […]

Wow, amazing analysis by Boone… I really “get it” now. Andrea_r also has a good point though that WPMU is distributed in other ways that are meaningful and powerful. I think the author’s comment was just speculation, and limited to a project called “DiSo” that was apparently designed to integrate with WordPress; not sure if […]

“1) They tried to add on to WordPress, a project which was not designed from the ground up to be a distributed network.” This really feels like the “elephant in the room” every time I visit my wp-admin panel. My BuddyPress admin menu keeps growing and growing, disproportionate to the WP-specific admin menus. I keep […]

I moved two of my outstanding bug reports from 1.2.4 to 1.3 (and JJJ moved another one of my bugs to 1.3 in a “string freeze” a few weeks ago). If you’re a bug reporter, you might consider whether it’s a critical bug for 1.2.4 or could it be reasonably delayed to a future release. […]

But seriously, I do recall an audio interview with Andy Peatling more than a year ago where I think he floated an idea of BP networks all interconnected and talking to each other, and for all I know, this is a plugin or core feature in some state of alpha or beta. Maybe somebody with […]

Wow, 4 guys with $10,000 and an idea good enough to impress a NYT reporter on deadline. The future is changed forever!

I integrated phpbb3-WP last night using WP-United and it’s not working perfectly yet. I think I need to adjust phpBB3 user permissions. The lock-in issue is definitely a concern – if Xevo is right that WP-United works not with WP 3.0, then you won’t be able to move forward until the WP-United developer updates his […]

I wouldn’t let it disenchant you – there will always be people saying “buddypress should be X and should not be Y”. The one thing we can agree on is that BuddyPress is a purely awesome collection of tools that you can pick and choose to build your own social network.

Well, you are probably talking about WP 3.0. Not surprised the entire Web does not work with 3.0 yet. WP-United has been around for a long time and is now a very mature software package so I would be surprised if it did not work with the stated specs: Tested with: WordPress 2.9.x & phpBB 3.0.6 […]
