Use a css editor for that

google is your friend

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Open the pot file in a text editor and search for the expression you want to change.

Near it you can see the file name and the line where it is located

@bowe

Why would YOU put advertising on your site when spammers do it for you for free ?

Top be rich one day, one hour or a few minutes, never forget that time is money

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Right, DJPaul !

So it would be really nice to find your notice in the readme.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Of course you have a default theme on 1.1.3 and you can share themes too !

Anyway…

An update of the group files was added this morning on the trac.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

In your config file you should see things like:

$base = ‘/xxx foldername xxx/’;

define(‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘xxxx domain.tld xxx’ );

define(‘PATH_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘/xxx foldername xxx/’ );

define( ‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ‘.xxx domain.tld xxx’ );

define( ‘SITECOOKIEPATH’, ‘/xxx foldername xxx/’ );

define( ‘ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH’, ‘/xxx foldername xxx’ );

define( ‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/xxx foldername xxx/’ );

You have to check each “define” path indicated by xxx something xxx

@ yudhister, before you install 1000 plugins to have what you want, read this:

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

You are using a beta version: so this is not stable actually.

Try with bp 1.1.3…

The problem you encounter is not exactly identified. Many user have such issues at the moment…

Could be some memory consumption on a low server or php version or ….

Sorry i can’t help more.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

You have to create a “custom.css” so the change won’t be affected at the next update.

Read the forum to know how to do this

You have to add

margin: 0 auto;

in the body css

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

If you’re new to BP, i recommand that you use the stable version.

One error is that you have probably not read the README and the forum;-)

– Control the paths indicated in wp-config.

– You can also set your permalinks to something other as “default” in order to have your BP working correctly.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Just to add something to this (upcoming)paranoïa tread

Since i use the signup trick, i have no more spam registering but receive personnal mails who ask for help for some minor wp troubles…

These mails are send from another part of my site where I have a contact form.

Pleasant for me is to see that this form is on a different CMS (absolutely not wp) but with a look alike BP template.

Difficult for me is to NOT answer these mails…

It seems that some spammers are desperatly searching for IP’s…

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

This is not a BP question… Sounds like a bad update of your wpmu.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

@ nommo, Sorry, this is because you’re using a banned IP or mail host.

Try to use something other. (you@gmail ie)

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Have you RU lang activated in BP (not WPMU) general settings ?

Notice: On the trac, the RU.mo trunk version is for 1.1.2

https://i18n.trac.buddypress.org/browser/ru_RU

Translator is SlaFFik

https://profiles.wordpress.org/slaffik/

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

in wp-config, define vhost=yes for subdomains, =no for subdirectories

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

I use BP since 0.9 beta…so it’s an updated, updated,updated site…

Did you allow blog creation to your members ? Because in the “undefined function”, enabled is set to 1 (yes)

Check also the plugin admin ( who is administrator, members, authors, etc)

Maybe you have a conflict with a plugin ?

Deactivate all your plugins except BP

Reactivate first (site wide) bp-groupblog and view if the error occurs.

If nothing happens, reactivate the other plugins one by one until you find the bad boy.

Also don’t forget to update all the (members) blogs after a core update. (i forget this always)

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

http://www.bp-tricks.com/tips_and_tricks/stopping-the-sploggers/

i guess this is one of the best trick against spam blogs and “wild” registrations.

Step 1 and 2 are a bit obvious, but 3 and 4 are really efficient.

Keep in mind that on a wpmu site each blog created by a member has his first post and comment appearing on the default template – the good ol’ kakumei… on which is also written “powered by…” ( Step 2 is only for main blog i think) Spam bots eat this with delectation i suppose.

Spam programs are written to bypass signup. Well. I presume other narrow words like join, fall in, get together are also activ in such programms. But what do these programms if you choose “groink” or “methabolic” ? So follow the explanation and choose a really original word for your signup redirection. This works well for the moment. And don’t forget to put the functions.php file the in mu-plugins folder (to be theme independant).

To use in addition with some other solutions (wp-ban, invisible defender, …) of course.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

This is not the answer but a trick…

In BP you have a folder named bp-languages. In it there is a .pot file. Open it with a texteditor and search the expression. You will find file name and line #

This is avaible for ALL phrase, alerts, message or other expression found in BP.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Did you install the template “bp-groupblog” into wp-content/themes ?

Chouf1 aka DaNiel invites you to test bp-groupblog here:

Old wpmu versions are all here:

If you first installed 2.9.x the version number is registered in the db

so “it’s normal”… but read this before procrastinating to much:
