@DJPaul Hey Paul, wondering if you can expand a little on what you are referring to in this comment: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/possible-to-add-another-friends-list/#post-21485. When researching options for our social network, I first dug into Elgg which has the ability to create friend lists and…[Read more]

  Hi Matt.
  I think I was referring to the fact that at the moment, relationships in BuddyPress core are one-to-one; both people must have each other as a friend. You can’t have a one-sided relationship (a “follower” or a “fan”) in core, but have a look at https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-followers/.

    Hey @DJPaul, thanks for the reply. The followers plugin is great. I use it myself on our installation. I guess what I’m hoping is that management of friends/followed might someday be possible via user defined “collections” (to use the language of the #Elgg platform). In Elgg – which I decided against mainly for usability reasons – these…[Read more]

      I would like to see one day better or perhaps more dynamic relationship mapping in core, but it’s not on the roadmap for the next version. Ditto something similar with privacy. I’m stil waiting with everyone else to see how Jeff’s plugin works.

I have been using WP-FB Autoconnect because the author has already addressed integration with Buddypress. I recommend the pro version as well as more settings here can be customized. Support has also been pretty good with quick responses.

  Thanks for the reply!
  
  I did end up using WP-FB-AutoConnect! Justin indeed is good at responding.
  
  Thanks for answering!

I’d like to include a right aligned sidebar on single group and profile pages (similar to the layout here on buddypress.org). But because the subnav div is located within each single item template, I would need to edit each of these single item templates separately with a call to the new sidebar(s). Is there a way I can do this through template actions?

How hard would it be to create an additional group member type which allows only commenting on existing items?

@travel-junkie Hey Boris … my fingernails are down to nubs in anticipation of your jobboard buddypress plugin. I’m currently running JobManager for WP but I’d much prefer to have something that is built on the buddypress framework. A couple of thoughts though:

1) Can you include a check box in group admin settings to disable the job board (as…[Read more]

  Yup, that’s doable. The plugin won’t be finished before BP 1.3, though. Just too much on my plate right now…

@dwenaus Hey is your Buddypress Pages idea going anywhere or did it get tabled?

Any input @djpaul, @boonebgorges, @johnjamesjacoby?

Is there any way that we as a community can gang up on profile spammers? I just wonder if we can self-moderate without resorting to cyber bullying.

Hey Boris … is it possible to display both profiles and groups on the same map but with distinct pins, on the front page for example?

Aha … my bad. One more lesson in paying attention. Thank you very much for your help!

Thanks so much for the reply Roger. I have tried all those, but realized I missed one other possibility: bp-custom. Sure enought, that seems to be the source, though I’m not sure why. Strangely enough, of the various hacks that I have there, the problem seems to be in the standard “define” functions prescribed in […]

Any chance this is an .htaccess issue?

Hey, can some one grab this one for me? This really is a significant hassle as our sight is just getting implemented and this will be a real frustration to my natient community. If it’s a dumb mistake on my part, please tell me in no uncertain terms! But I don’t think it is and […]

Not sure how this happened, but anytime I click on a user icon, I get sent back to the front page. I can get to all the components under a given username, but not username by itself. In other words, on our site, “alongside.org/new/matt” isn’t working but /matt/profile is. Don’t get it.

OK, I’m stumped … and I haven’t been able to find anything that matches my issue in the forums. To help diagnose a bit, I took down all plugins I’ve recently updated or added … no effect. Since I recently upgraded to 1.2.6 I made sure that my theme was all patched up … still […]
