“it’s either Bill Gates or gremlins”

• i do not have this setting set anywhere.
• i do not have plugins installed that would cause such functionality.

i deactivated it just now…

…i still have unwanted forced “please upload your profile photo to start using this site” 🙁

solutions?

I’m curious, if there might not now be a few plugin combinations that create reasonably functional BuddyPress communities, out-the-box.

So, basically: everything works.

It’s not that important “how” everything works, but…[Read more]

hmmm, maybe i’ll try it out again — thnx for the thread 🙂

currently, i own “Terso Theme” and WPLMS.

you can buy premium wordpress themes that just plain break BuddyPress, so it is necessary to try things out.

i also run a BuddyPress site with the 2012 theme. i don’t know why, but the activity stream is actually…[Read more]

by “make sense” i mean: when you comment on something in the activity stream, that same comment appears under the blog post — so “not 2 different streams of comments with confusion as to where what works.”

i’d like to remove all but one of the messages and respond.

it would be goofy to respond to the 4th message instance — because the message is exactly the same.

so, ideally, i would remove instance2, instance2, and instance4, leaving instance1 and the keeping the thread in tact.

the convo thread is a bit silly.

i wanted to delete three of the messages, but noticed: it looks like i can’t!

searched a bit and apparently, the word on the forum-street is: there is no way to delete PM except through the DB. is that still…[Read more]

investigate the DB itself and make changes directly in the DB via SQL queries.

create dev environments in which you export/import using various methods.

probably the direct use of the DB itself will be the most reliable.

check the original DB re duplicates.

best wishes!

this was a real pivotal moment for me and my “relationship” with buddypress.

u got me considering contributing regarding functionality planning & concept design — is there a “workgroup” that discusses such issues? is there a documentation…[Read more]

it is SOOOO much better with this plugin activated.

i think it makes sense to give site managers control over what appears in the activity stream. simple on/off.

Migrating from old forums to bbPress 2.2+

Migrating from old forums to bbPress 2.2+

So you’ve been using BuddyPress’ built-in group forums since BuddyPress 1.5, but would like to use the new bbPress plugin to power your forums instead.

Gotcha. You’ll need to migrate your existing group forum…

maybe there is a better solution, since this topic is so old and “resolved?”

anyone “got” some code where it’s pretty easy to just “turn on and off” what is and isn’t added to the activity stream?

not seeing comments made to updates users make on their own profiles really makes people feel like nothing is going on at…[Read more]

is it a separate stylesheet someone made at some point?

if you reply within the activity stream, it does appear.

if you reply at the status update itself — it does not — but the reply is listed under “Activity” in the back end.

ps: why does twenty twelve’s buddypress activity stream comment submission look so good?

is it a separate stylesheet someone made at some point?

to functions.php of the child theme

(it’s the only line)

and well — upon activating the child theme — i get a blank page with just that line displayed — did i do that wrong?

thnks for your help

and they are at least saying that they are looking into it.

i added that line to functions.php & thank you very much 🙂

then, with an upgraded buddypress, if i switch back to the child theme i created (of bp-default), the site just displays the WSOD, and i need to revert to the backup.

so, right now, i “can’t get” buddypress to work with a child theme of the bp-default theme.

i:

purchased a commercial theme for $60 hoping it would work out the box. it didn’t.

i created a child theme and it works with the old version of buddypress

i added all the memory stuff to files like .haccess that folks recommend when you get the WSOD w buddypress

i updated buddypress and got a success message:…[Read more]

maybe, by some chance, after i upgrade buddypress, the activity stream will display properly using the commercial theme i purchased

…otherwise…it’s right back to bp-default…

now i bought a commercial theme and it’s broken:

this is why we need a buddypress default.
