In reply to: Where’s the plugins directory page?
^ that is pretty much why I removed the page. it was misleading to people looking for BP-compatible plugins.
In reply to: Sendgrid and buddypress emailsThe above is not a complete solution for Sendgrid, no.
In reply to: View Profile Crashes in Internet ExplorerThanks for sharing the solution to your problem!
In reply to: Ionic app or other with REST api?webdevstudios have a couple of options — take a look on their site.
In reply to: How to hide projects featureNot sure what you mean be “projects” feature — sounds like that’s part of this other plugin, so that’s not really in our wheelhouse. Or it’s something in BuddyPress that’s been renamed.
Have you checked the other plugin for options to disable it?
In reply to: Conflict with Buddypress and WordPress EmailIs your plugin online somewhere? Share a link?
In reply to: Very strange BP Emails behaviour@slaffik https://github.com/21applications/bp-wpmandrill/blob/master/plugin.php
That’s for Mandrill. It relies on the fact that the wpMandrill plugin replaces wp_mail() so it gets the email data it needs, and just calls wp_mail().
Maybe you can use it as a base
If one type of email is getting sent and the others aren’t, it might be some part of the content triggering some kind of spam filter on the remote server. It could be some kind of throttling issue, and it’s only by coincidence one type of email is being sent. I don’t know. There’s all sorts of weird possibilities.
We have 2 further email delivery fixes that have been identified, which I imagine we will implement and release within the next 2 weeks. I don’t see how either would directly affect your site since you have SOME BP HTML emails being delivered, but not all — but maybe they will. This is certainly pretty weird.
In reply to: Very strange BP Emails behaviourDiscussion with other person ended up with me not writing code. @slaffik I’ll try to get to this in the next day or two, but you need to implement your own
BP_Email_Deliveryclass, likeBP_PHPMAiler, and filterbp_send_email_delivery_class, AND set bp_email_use_wp_mail to return false.In reply to: Very strange BP Emails behaviourFiltering this to false is only going to try to send the email via PHPMailer. This doesn’t always work depending on server configuration, which is why SMTP plugins are quite common.
You need to create your own
BP_Email_Deliveryclass. Someone else is literally asking me this right now so I’ll throw together some example code quickly…In reply to: Shortcode to create Edit Profile PageI’ll let those two continue to try to help, I just wanted to say I really want to investigate adding shortcodes for all BuddyPress things in some future release and have recently began to think about it. Doesn’t help you now, but might help someone in the future.
In reply to: Very strange BP Emails behaviourI’m going to assume that you haven’t changed post_content to match post_excerpt on purpose 😉
In reply to: Very strange BP Emails behaviourI think I know but can you dump the entire email object — in that bp_send_email_success filter — and share it with me? Either on github gist or email me or however.
In reply to: New Email Template (Self defeating?)@backpackersunion Some have asked about the “Hi” part. I suppose that could be changed. I have seen a few people ask, but if I see one post about something here, I normally multiple that number by 100, because very few people find it easy or convenient to get in contact with us (with support question), so probably quite a lot of people would like the option, even if it wasn’t the majority.
The unsubscribe I am a bit less sure of. I don’t want to make it easy for evil people running BP to remove the unsubscribe link for emails they send. In BuddyPress 2.6, an upcoming change means that this unsubscribe link will work, even if you’re not logged in to the site.
From a technical perspective, if we remove the token from the template and put it into the option, if a user has already customised the footer text option, they won’t see the new updated (default value for the) option.
This is not unsolvable, we’d run something on the upgrade routing, but we’d have to stick the token at the very bottom or top of the template. It’d be easy for the site admin to change, but it would annoy them. But it might be worthwhile.
So — maybe? You could create a ticket on buddypress.trac.wordpress.org to see if any other regular contributor likes the idea, or see if you can start a discussion or get feedback from other users via the forum.
@justarandomuser Please don’t post the same thing on multiple topics. If you find yourself wanting to do that, it’s best to just create a new discussion topic for better visibility. I’ve replied on your other topic.
@justarandomuser Yes. BuddyPress does not and will not support WordPress’
wp_mail_content_typefilter, so setting this or not does not affect BuddyPress.Postman SMTP plugin re-declares a function called
wp_mail(). BuddyPress will send its emails in plaintext ifwp_mail()has been redeclared.This decision was made because a lot of legacy WordPress plugins that change email content/appearance, or how they are delivered, re-declare
wp_mail()and it is impossible for BuddyPress to know if/how it could support all these custom implementations.If you are using Postman SMTP to only send emails via SMTP, you could find an alternate SMTP plugin. People have mentioned some recently in email support discussions on this forum, though I can’t remember the names. If I find one again, I’ll try to remember to let you know here.
If you are using Postman SMTP for any other purpose, and you don’t want to switch to another plugin that only configures WordPress to send via SMTP, then I’m afraid you’re out of the options at the moment.
You are right that the Customizer does not indicate that the email will only be sent in plaintext in these situations. We’ll get some messaging added to that screen in the next BuddyPress release to clarify that.
In reply to: Email situation for account deletionI think this situation normally occurs when a spammer’s account has been deleted, and that kind of person probably is using a fake email address, so there is not much point sending an email.
How are you using deleted account emails to help your site?
In reply to: Network activation advantage?Having BP active on all sites in a network just means BP works on all of those sites. By default, the main domain, as you call it, becomes the central hub.
In practical terms, if you have the Site Tracking component enabled, it’d track blog posts/comments on all sites into the hub’s activity stream. There’s a “Sites” tab in the user profile that will show a list of all the sites that the user has some kind of access to (to the wp-admin).
There are other things like @mentions that you could get to work (though you’d probably have to write a bit of code to support the non-BuddyPress templates running on the non-hub site(s).
In reply to: Using First & Last name instead of @usernameDo you mean in the auto-suggest prompt, or just the @username when it’s mentioned in content?
In reply to: Private messaging user blocking/ignoring?> – Official inclusion to Buddypress?
Assuming you mean the plugins discussed here a year ago, no plans.Beyond that, your questions are best addressed to the plugin author via their website.
This would need a change in the bbPress templates. I don’t know how useful the bbPress support forums are, but you could try leaving a message at http://bbpress.org
In reply to: Complete chat system???I’m not aware of any that integrate into BuddyPress.
In reply to: Members can’t update their own passwordsWe (the project, BuddyPress) recommend that you do not use W3TC’s Object Caching support. There is a bug in it that causes the password hash to be reset when a user is updated. This is a bug in W3TC and not BuddyPress, and we are not going to workaround the issue in BuddyPress just to support a bugged plugin.
In reply to: Why People Do Not Use RealNames/Images on Forums?I think it comes down to privacy, and what how much a person wants to share to a specific community. I’m much more open in this WordPress community than I am in communities for various video games i’m involved with, for example.
