Here’s the codex page for that: https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/
I think the key that you’re missing is that if you create something that is a derivative work of BP/WP and then distribute it then it needs to be GPL. If you use BP with a proprietary closed set of software that you’re not distributing to others you should be fine.
Disclaimer: I’m not a lawyer.
Delete the BP chat plugin folder in wp-content/plugins and it will stop that plugin and you’ll be able to get back in.
Then, you can test it on a test site and see why it’s not working right.
Run through the member loop on an admin page or something and then add each member in the loop to the group using the group_join_group (or something close to that). You can also add a friend request that way too. I can’t remember the add_friend function, but it’s in the invite anyone plugin if you look in that forum.
I don’t think it will work with a gmail account (at least without a major hack). It probably has to be somenameofanysort@yourdomain.com Then, you have to make sure that email is setup on your hosting.
Seems simple enough. You can disable a lot of the functionality you don’t want in the admin.
The custom parts will be the profile itself, but you should be able to do this pretty nicely using the xProfile fields without too much custom work on your end. You might also have to build a custom search to search through those profile fields, but there are a number of plugins you can look at to build out that functionality.
I’d consider using s2member as the payment method for people signing up. That should work for what you want I think.
As a side note, I’ve created a sports website that teams can use to fundraise called Giving Sports: http://givingsports.com Athlete profiles is not the core of the site, but each athlete just gets a profile as a means to fundraise for their team. It will be interesting to see how that evolves over time since athlete profiles are valuable and interesting.
Also check to make sure that whatever email you are using in your Mail From plugin actually exists. Otherwise, there are often issues there.
Today’s dev chat link: http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2010/12/14/the-next-dev-chat-is-tomorrow-wednesday/ (yes, that’s in about 10 minutes)
Try the mail from plugin.
It does what you want. It does not create a bunch of individual BuddyPress sites (which many other people really want). The MU just enables people to create blogs and for the username to be used across all the blogs and the stream can take in information from those blogs.
http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-gallery/ $30, but should do what you want.
Modify header.php in your theme. I think it’s wp_list_pages or something like that which lists the pages. Use is_user_logged_in() for the if statement to choose when to display the pages.
I’m no xprofile field expert, but can’t you just create a page template, have the page template go through the user loop and on each loop display each of the xprofile fields that you want for that user in a table. Copy the table to excel and you’ve got it. There are other ways, but that seems like the simplest to me.
It does require you to understand the user loop and displaying the xprofile fields, but that can be modified from the list of members page and the profile page which displays the xprofile data.
Or you could hire someone like Paul or Boone or other BP developer who could probably crank this out pretty quickly.
Not too late. Just download the BP plugin to your computer so you can get the default theme. Create your child theme and upload that and enable it. Then, upload the default BP theme back to its original location.
Warning: Backup first in case something goes wrong:-)
The question is, what do you want them to be a moderator of? When they join are you automatically joining them to a specific group or something?
I do this, but I hijack the signup process. I check for essentially a special code. If they have it, then I do one action. If they don’t then I do another. I hook onto bp_core_signup_user to make this happen.
Check with the Theme author. Sounds like a theme specific issue.
If they don’t respond try the SeoPress plugin and you should be able to set the titles the way you want.
Check out the BP Media plugin and other event plugins in: https://buddypress.org/extend/ See if they meet your needs or not. I know the media plugin for example has been working on some major caching of the images, so it might be fine for you. Try it out and see.
There’s a BP job group where you can post a request for a WP/BP developer to help you with the project: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/
I think Paul was working on a change to the core to make the avatar upload appear after activation. It does make sense to wait until they’ve activated to upload the image. That should be next major release of BP I think.
Threads almost never get deleted. Maybe locked, but almost never deleted.
Definitely look on your profile page and keep clicking the more button to see all the activity you’ve had if you replied on the thread.
Glad to help. Not everything is documented in BuddyPress, but luckily that part was.
I did find a couple other options. Not exactly what you mentioned, but they might work for you:
Showing the last image uploaded to the BP Media plugin: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-album/forum/topic/limiting-photos-shown-and-also-how-to-display-latest-uploaded-photo-on-users-profile/The latest BP Oembed plugin was working to support embedded image in the profile: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/how-to-allow-user-to-upload-image-with-a-field-in-profile/ Basically, users could put a link to a flickr image (or other oembed enabled site) and the image would appear in their profile.
Hmm…I haven’t really tested the blog creation with the BP Disable Activation. I know there was one known issue of the auto login not working. I never had time to look into what caused it not to work. Sounds like there’s a problem with the activation email still being sent too and it shouldn’t be sent. I’m not sure when I’ll have a moment to look at this, but if someone else figures out the issue let me know and I’ll update the plugin.
I like this plugin: http://buddydev.com/plugins/bpdev-username-availability-checker/ It does a nice job notifying the users of any issues with their requested username.
Here’s the documentation for the various filters available for the Groups Loop: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-groups-loop/
There’s a number of ways to skin it. You could do 2 loops on the same page and just check each group to see if it should be in the featured list of groups or not. The other is to use one of the above filters. groups-loop.php is the file you’ll probably want to look at.
I tried to search around too. I couldn’t find the thread either. Maybe it was just someone asking for it. I didn’t need the feature so I didn’t keep track of it.
My point was that I remembered them asking for the ability to upload a document and have it linked from the profile. To do a logo, you’d have to modify it to display the logo instead of the link. Doesn’t matter though if we can’t find a plugin like that.
It’s certainly a doable feature for a developer to create. They could probably leverage the WP media upload and then display it in someone’s profile. You could post the job to the BP job board group if you have some money to fund it.
