On the roadmap for post-1.3, the team is going to look at WordPress user roles with a view to integrating them.

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

The BP profile sync only does the following: sets ‘nickname’, ‘first_name’, ‘last_name’ usermeta information. It also updates the user’s ‘display_name’ to the user’s name in their BP profile, and sets their ‘user_url’ to point to their BP profile page.

testbp now runs regular WordPress, not MU, which is why that has “disappeared.”

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Your theme will just be including sidebar.php twice. You’ll have to remove it from where you don’t want it.

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

That’s not an offiical BP site. Those functions were removed in BP 1.2; you’re best off using WP functions to get whatever blog info you need.

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

This is true. I think there is about 10-15 hours work in it before it gets to a beta release for the current version of BuddyPress.

I am working on it, but as always there are plenty of things to do

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

You’re welcome

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

It’s worth pointing that Achievements, as soon as I finish re-writing it, does not support any kind of rewards other than “points” or some sort of graphical badge. There will be hooks in to allow developers to extend it further, of course.

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

If there are duplicate trac tickets for the same issue, obviously, just close them all down except for one of them and put a note in the others pointing to that ticket. Thanks again everyone for your time and effort in reporting bugs

To run BP on a sub-blog, look at:

I’m a bit offended at having some of my work in this “Hall of Shame”; a message or email to the plugin developers would have been more polite.

I’ll update my plugins as and when I get time; client work continues to take priority.

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Are all of you talking about FRIEND notifications, specifically?

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

No obvious idea. You didn’t change something in a core file previously or anything like that? Will be interesting to see if anyone else reports this.

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Have a look at https://buddypress.org/about/release-history/

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

1. Yes, exactly right.

2. If the plugin has been updated properly since BP 1.1 release, you shouldn’t have to move a plugin template file. If you’ve found a recent plugin and it is telling you to move a file, then tell the developer to come over to these forums and we will help them fix it.

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Oh, hold on.

If you are using BP on WPMU and want to run it on a blog which is not the root blog (root blog is blog_id = 1). See https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/changing-internal-configuration-settings/ but in your wp-config, add:

define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 2 );

For running BP on blog id 2, for example.

what’s the url of an image on a profile?

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

If you can confirm that altering the db type works and is not destructive, we can add that to yhe ticket.

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Um, it does? http://dev.benoitgreant.be/blog/2009/11/buddypress-real-names/

Ensure your WP install is set to use the same timezone as your server. Test with a new message, not an old one, because in some areas the timestamps are cached and so won’t reflect any changes to the timezone (i.e. the Activity Stream is an easy example). If you still find an inconsistency, please report this as a bug on https://trac.buddypress.org/

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Upgrade your hosting package / bandwidth allowances, or switch to a new host.

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

That was part of BP before version 1.1

[@djpaul Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

BuddyPress 1.2.2.1 isn’t built or tested for compatibility with WP 3.0-Alpha yet; I suspect it won’t until WP 3.0 gets to Beta.
