socialpreneur i know forum rules…

but it’s very difficult to explain clearly a problem in foreign language.

I’m french, désolé !

Dont duplicate…

Dont bump…

What else as reformulating a question ?

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Are your datas in the new tables named wp_bb_xxxx ?

Is one of the DEFINE in bb_config correctly set to db name=wp_bb_ ?

Is the bb_config at the site root ?

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Possible you have a “cookie salad” in your browser…

First, try to rename the old forum folder (before deleting it…)

Deactivate and reactivate the forum in the bp settings.

Be sure you installed the “new” forum without de old bb_config in the new location. Let the system work to make a new one.

You will see than in the bb_config that the tables of your new forum are called wp_bb_xxx

These tables are probably empty at the end of such a acrobatic update.

If it is the case, you have to copy the old bb_tables content into the new wp_bb_tables. Normally your old forum content is now showing in the new install.

And sorry for my english.

OK, in my case i have folder 1 in witch are several files for past avatars and more recent.

Actually i got 2 different pictures (since update to 1.1) who are complety different. It’s impossible to delete them in blog.dir directly and i can’t also delete them when i am on the change avatar page.

Is there a way to reorder the file names or something like this ?

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Thx jjj, i still know that… What i want to understand is how the system recognize my name and associate the right avatar to it. Where is this information stored ?

I cannot erase my avatar, even from profile interface nor from the server. And i don’t hade sudo access. I can only try something from in the DB i guess.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

I made a pot file for this plugin and added code to translate the php file.

Where should i put the zip ?

A french version is already avaible on http://www.buddypress-fr.net

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

This plugin is not (yet) adapted to 1.1, anyway he can work a bit…

Move the “album” folder from bp-themes/album to /themes/bp-sn-parent/album

This will show your picture. i didn’t trying something for the picture wire, but i presume there is a path to modify somewhere.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

i have the same problem.

“my blogs” links to site root.

And no other items exept “create a blog”

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Thank you socialpreneur for the response, but….

Since 10 mounth i go to the backend via these menu item.

As site admin i have to work in the admin.

Since the update to 1.1 i can no more access to “publish” I entend that BP should be manageable from the frontend, but if so it is also normal that i can publish, delete or edit my stuff.

It’s not my first update, i know FTP and SSH and i handle always manually. And so far as i can see, my theme is setted correctly. You can take a look, the address is above.

In bp-core_adminbar.php, at line 151, is a list

echo ‘<li’ . $alt . ‘>’;

echo ‘siteurl . ‘”>’ . $blog->blogname . ‘ (‘ . $role . ‘)‘;

if ( !( ‘Subscriber’ == $role ) ) { // then they have something to display on the flyout menu

echo ‘

‘;

echo ‘<li class=”alt”>siteurl . ‘/wp-admin/”>’ . __(‘Dashboard’, ‘buddypress’) . ‘‘;

echo ‘

• siteurl . ‘/wp-admin/post-new.php”>’ . __(‘New Post’, ‘buddypress’) . ‘

‘;

echo ‘<li class=”alt”>siteurl . ‘/wp-admin/edit.php”>’ . __(‘Manage Posts’, ‘buddypress’) . ‘‘;

echo ‘

• siteurl . ‘/wp-admin/edit-comments.php”>’ . __(‘Manage Comments’, ‘buddypress’) . ‘

‘;

if ( ‘Admin’ == $role ) {

echo ‘<li class=”alt”>siteurl . ‘/wp-admin/themes.php”>’ . __(‘Switch Theme’, ‘buddypress’) . ‘‘;

}

echo ‘

‘;

The file is from 1.1 version.

The first line indicates the wp-admin url.

I don’t see this menu when i’m logged as admin. I have only “My blogs” who links to the root site and “Create a blog”

Meanwhile there is another tread here with the same problem i guess

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

No absolutely not !

I’m talking about my site (see url in the previous post)

I need to have the url to the wp-admin page (the admin dashboard) witch existed in the previous version (1.0.3) and who’s no more existing on the actual (mine) 1.1 buddybar

i see only the “half” of the items

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

What ? Not standard ?

This is an out of the box install for the french bp demo.

http://buddypress-fr.net/bpdemo/

Of course it would be simple to re-code, if you tell me what to re-code.

But it is not my intention because i didn’t code something. I just updated a few days ago and it went wrong.

But maybe my update was not standard ?

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Many links here to “restrict access”

Did tried this plugin ?

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-members/

Seems to do what you looking for.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

@ wordpressfan

Did you read this post ?

I give a solution. Not perfect but it works

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

oups: it was custom.css of course…

i uncommented the line and now it works.

Thank you David !

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 8 months ago]

Should be but isn’t in a readme…

and my custom.php is already in the _inc/css folder and didn’t work as in my previous 1.0.3 install

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 9 months ago]

did you try my solution ?

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 9 months ago]

i don’t know if robots go directly into db, or use the wp code…

but one thing you can try is to hack a little the register_new_user function in wp-login.php

to ban some email domains like “XXXX@myspacee.info” witch massevely occurs in the past last weeks….

function begins at line 228 (v. 2.8.4a)

add this on line 233

$email_check = explode(“@”, $user_email);

insert also this at line 248

} elseif($email_check[1] == ‘myspacee.info’) {

$errors->add(‘invalid_email’, __(‘ERROR: The email address isn’t correct.’));

insert the same code and change the mail domain name if you need to ban more domains

In use with invisible-defender, wp-ban and wp-spamfree i think you would be quiet for a moment with unwanted registering of blogs or users.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 9 months ago]

hi zageek,

Since mounth, zhanglingjuan appears with several different ending numbers.

Personnaly i banned it from 112 to 116 in wp-options ->banned domain’s over 40 days now.

additionnally, i add some ip’s used by zhang… into the htaccess

If you can verify in your server log file, you would see that they are offten the same ip’s which are used.

I also blocked access to all trafic comming from libwww-perl witch brings a lot a lot of brut force tempting.

A little mail to abuse@gmail…. will not resolve the problem with zhang…., but will stress a bit the giant…. (i believe in the “butterfly effect”)

Using wp-spammfree and invisible defender widgets would also help you.

Of course, daily cleanning in the DB in wp-register and wp-signup tabs

since 40 days, no zhang… registered on my site.

Instead some new spammer appeared: firstnamelastname 1961 or any other year, mostly with mail on mysace.info or onlq.com

spamm is a never ending desease

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 10 months ago]

Rohan, I confirm the bug.

SWA is no more working with 2.8.2 and 1.0.3…

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 11 months ago]

wpmu 2.8.1

bp 1.0.3 trunk version

bbpress 1.0.1

here is my bug list. I read the trac message mentionned above and made my own change. Anyway all i listed here is already not working.

I suggest you go to the site and terst yourself (it’s a test site straigth out of the box)

May this help.

Group page – main content

http://buddypress-fr.net/bpdemo/groups/groupe-de-tests/home/

Topic list is showing well.

This is a link from one of the topic. When click on it, it brings me to the homepage.

http://buddypress-fr.net/bpdemo/groups/groupe-de-tests/forum/topic/25

Same thing with the “view all topics” link

http://buddypress-fr.net/bpdemo/groups/groupe-de-tests/forum

Group page – Forum button

http://buddypress-fr.net/bpdemo/groups/groupe-de-tests/group-forum/

Menu is ok, but when i click on “forum”, the right col “main content” becames blank.

The admin bar disapear also

Group page – Wire

http://buddypress-fr.net/bpdemo/groups/groupe-de-tests/group-wire/

“view all” brings me to the homepage

Group page – create a group

http://buddypress-fr.net/bpdemo/members/admin/groups/create/step/group-details

The 4 menu options (details, settings,…)in maincontent are no more translated

After the group is created, when i go to the new group admin, the options are translated.

on step 2, the forum option is deactivated.

The permanent warning message about configuration is not necessary for ordinary user, because they can’t never install bbPress, even if they are blog admin or there own group forum master.

Anyway, this means to create a group first, then finish the whole register process, saving and to come back to the group to activate the forum. Not sure if this is a bug, but it’s anoying.

Once the group is created, the forum option is not appearing at all.

Group page – wire

unable to create a message. When posting, i flip to the homepage without any error message.

Group page – change group avatar

This is impossible ! I load a new image, loader is turning a little, and… nothing happens.

*****

I uploaded the 1.0.3 latest release version and changed the whole bp-theme/group folder from trunk to latest release.

Now, i can change group avatar.

Also, can you explain me the difference between the two folder, the trunk version has a very different content.

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 11 months ago]

hi andy,

Yes, it’s my case; i used trunk version. Tables changed… but i wan’t go back.

Actually the SAW shows right – after a few F5 hits !

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 11 months ago]

Relax and be patient; I related the bug on the trac…

Maybe the dev’s are overheated with this 1.0.3 version

[@chouf1 Participant 16 years, 11 months ago]

i replaced again all files in bp-activity trough FTP… reloaded the mainpage and… youpi… it work’s.

For how long ?
