Need to see https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/when-asking-for-support from both of you to confirm that you both have the same issue. You might be having the same problem but with different causes.

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

This post is two months old.

That aside. I know a couple of guys on IRC have been tracking a few SQL number-of-query issues down which apparently need to be fixed in the WordPress core. Your post is not very constructive as you haven’t suggested a particular page on a site which interested developers could look into – saying that the entire thing needs attention may be valid, but we need to start from somewhere.

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

I’d argue the only core developer is Andy Peatling, and looking at his Twitter feed, he’s been out of (his) country for the last couple of weeks.

There’s a number of tickets with patches from others, but only Andy can merge them into the core. Likewise, the forum has been very busy and there’s not been massive amounts of “answer” posts. I guess we’re just in a bit of a quiet period.

This site uses a standalone bbPress install, integrated into BuddyPress the same way as had to be done in version 1.0 of BuddyPress.

Can I take a shot in the dark; are using PHP4?

That line has

return fbc_facebook_client()->get_loggedin_user();

which I’m calling “chaining” (not sure of the technical term) and I think it only works in PHP5.

I think your BuddyBar ticket is a good idea. With regards to the blog language, I’m wondering if this is something set in WPMU somewhere. Hopefully someone who has looked into this (hey, johnjamesjacoby, that means you :p) can enlighten me.

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

Are you using a custom theme and have called bp_the_body_class() directly? A quick look at the code reveals that will cause missing argument errors but if this is on the default theme the error is a bit deeper and we’ll need to dig further.

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

Is this resolved now?

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

Looks like you’ve got a holding page up on your site but you probably need to go to http:///your_site.com/wp-admin/wpmu-options.php and change the ‘Allow new registrations’ setting.

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

This needs to be within the Wire template loop, but here’s what you need to get to the variable. There’s no wrapper function around this at the moment:

global $wire_posts_template; echo $wire_posts_template->total_wire_post_count;

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

If it doesn’t work on the default BuddyPress theme that comes with BuddyPress, it’s not going to work on third-party themes.

13. the page just goes blank at login on IE7

If you look at your web server/php error log when this happens, is any message given? Also, if you disable BuddyPress and log in on IE7 via http://yoursite.com/wp-admin/, does that work?

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

No idea, so: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/when-asking-for-support

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

Extended profiles looks like it should be disabled.

BuddyPress will let me disable all the components except "Extended Profiles."

In the politest way possible, why use BuddyPress if you want to disable all of the components? What features are you looking for?

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

What page are we talking about? Can you find a sample on http://testbp.org/ and link us to it?

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

I can’t even *find* that thread Definitely good idea to repost!

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

This might be a bug; but are you trying this with your Administrator user account?

As a regular user on http://testbp.org/groups/it/wire/ (a group my regular user account isn’t a member of), I don’t have anyway of posting to the wire.

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

I assume your web server is actually part of the ‘apache’ usergroup?

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

Keep this on topic please, this thread is to discuss an issue vasipasi was having installing the plugin (suggest you send a message to Manoj asking him to look at this thread).

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

I suggest you contact Manoj directly or via his website. No guarantee he will see this thread. Plus, this thread is 2-4 months old.

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

Since these threads were created about 4 hours apart from each, searching the forum for an existing topic would have been nice Let’s try to keep discussion on this on one thread (this one?)

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

Previous to BP 1.1, all user registration was dealt with by WordPress, so it’s technically correct to point people towards existing WordPress/MU resources and forums for help.

Since BP 1.1, however, BP changes the new account confirmation/activation email – because on the standard BP 1.1 signup page, the user can pick their own password. And of course, it’s a security issue if we were to somehow send their (encrypted) password back to them. So BP 1.1 overrides the standard WordPress MU email so it doesn’t include the password text.

But, the activation link is part of WordPress. Yes, the BuddyPress default theme uses this behaviour too – but it calls the WordPress code.

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

I’d strongly suggest pbowman you upgrade to the latest versions of WPMU, BP and BBPress. You may be experiencing bugs which have since been fixed. Are you able to upgrade?

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

I’m still lost. I also don’t really have time to look at this until the weekend sometime. Could you help me again please?

Yep, I go to the main blog via Users menu (not site admin>users) and…

Could you give me a sample link (feel free to cut your domain off the beginning), i.e. http://example.com/how_to/get_to_this/page. I’m being a noob and can’t see it

...EXCEPT the email with username & randomly generated password that should replace that activation email shown above. (I'm thinking this is a wordpress email? Not sure.)

Correct. Welcome Pack doesn’t (or shouldn’t) touch the activation email, which is why this issue is so weird-sounding.

You ARE aware since BP 1.1, if a new user registers via http://testbp.org/register, they are able to pick their password and as such it isn’t emailed to them? (Though they still get a confirmation/account activation email)

[@djpaul Keymaster 17 years ago]

Cool, nice one.
