BuddyPress.org

Some good points, but remember that each of us has the power to shape BuddyPress; that is what is great about the larger WordPress community. I agree with hnla’s points about community leaders; I have clients, lots of twitter messages and emails from all sorts of people who keep asking where Andy Peatling’s gone to. […]

I’ll test it and check it is working as it should

Ok, if anyone complains it’ll require 1.2.4, I’ll blame you :p

FYI, Welcome Pack 2.2 will include this functionality; I’m working with techguy on this.

In the upcoming 2.2 release, I’ve modified how I access the wp_options variables to ensure a consistent experience. However, if you or anyone else upgrades from a much older version of Welcome Pack (say, something prior to 1.6.4), it’s possible that the setting variables won’t be imported correctly. To resolve, just delete the ‘welcomepack’ key […]

Another update: in the upcoming Welcome Pack 2.2 release, I’ve changed how those names are put into the list, so whatever problem you’re having, it may fix it.

Ok, I’ll use that. Thanks for your help with this. By the way, why 1.2.4? It seems to be in 1.2.3 at least: https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/tags/1.2.3/bp-core.php

Thank you for that useful contribution to this 5 month old thread. I suggest you switch to using the “mystery man” setting and customise that graphic to something that’s more appropriate for your site.

Probably a bug. Best to report it on trac.buddypress.org

Hi Rebecca. It’s probably either a form validation problem (and maybe your theme doesn’t show the error messages) or something weird happening with something known as the “nonce.” I can see you are running the BP Template Pack, which is good. Have you overridden any of the files provided with the BP Template Pack in […]

Er, without seeing it, I’d be inclined to agree with you that something suspicious has happened. Unfortunately, you’ve got a lot of work ahead of you regarding cleaning up your installation.

Hopefully someone with a bit of knowledge about how to start doing this can suggest something.

Yes and no. Let me try to explain. Off the top of my head, I know of 4 ways to change emails in BuddyPress/WordPress: 1) Change the core. 2) Replace entirely a particular mail-sending function, via plugin. 3) Override a particular mail-sending function, via plugin hooks/filters. 4) Use the localisation/translation system (.po/.mo files, etc) to […]

@r-a-y I’ve changed the filter from ‘bp_member_name’ to ‘bp_get_member_name’, as it seems that is what I should have been using originally. Can you see any issue? I haven’t tested it yet.

I’m reviewing the filters for the Welcome Pack 2.2 release.

It is meant to be empty; it’s left over from something. @johnjamesjacoby ping!

And what exactly did this “root shell script” look like?

I’m trying to find a neat way of implementing this, rather than lots (and lots) of text boxes. I’ll revisit this for a future version (perhaps Welcome Pack 2.3).

To update: looking at your plugins, I see nothing obvious that would interfere. Have a look in your web server error log for any errors caused when you load this page. Also, what’s in the HTML source for that area of the page (if you know how to read HTML)? Is it just empty li […]

This is fixed and will be in the next release, Welcome Pack 2.2.
