Newly-added mandatory fields stay unset until a user goes to edit their profile (for whatever reason); then they must set them.

Look in wp-admin, in BuddyPress > Components. Is “Settings” disabled?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

@r-a-y is correct about 2.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Did you disable the settings component? If so, this probably counts as a bug. Let us know.

Ideally you need a postcode database, but depending on your country, you usually have to pay a fee for that data (the UK does).

Another approach is to query Google Maps API and get the long/lat from there, and then it’s some math to compare against a given long/lat to find out the distance. It’s been a while since i’ve done that math, so you would have to google to find out.

Ping @johnjamesjacoby

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Good job

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

That sounds like a good idea for an enhancement. Can you add a ticket onto our trac at http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org? Thanks.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Hmm. So, your latter is a bbPress 2.x link, which BuddyPress calls site-wide forums. Group forums uses bbPress 1.x, which is a totally different beast to try to figure out. Since you’ve got bbPress 2.x installed, I’d suggest trying to get that figured out first. I suggest you visit the forums at bbpress.org and see if there are any discussions or guides about this sort of problem.

The default avatar is exactly that, a default. It’s not per-user, so it can’t be deleted. There must be an avatar of some sort.

If you don’t like mystery man, you can always replace the graphic used with something custom, or use a gravatar (Settings > Discussion, in wp-admin).

bp_member_last_active() is only used in the members directory / member’s friend pages. It’s not in the default theme’s activity stream. I assume therefore you’re running a custom theme, which we’ll need to adjust. Did you create it yourself, or download it from somewhere? If the latter, hopefully the vendor offers support.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Putting forums aside, do only member pages not work? Does everything else work? e.g. WordPress post permalinks, WordPress pages, BuddyPress groups.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Hawkens, can you test this on testbp.org, and see if the problem is recreatable there? Thanks.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Not aware of anyone running BuddyPress on Facebook’s HipHop. Let us know if there’s anything specific that’s an actual bug in BuddyPress.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Not sure why it’s there. We’re not filtering it. Raise a ticket.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Yes. You’re probably better off looking at the bbPress.org support forums for that specific question.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

For that one, suggest you look at the code and if it could be done filtered onto WordPress’ function. Raise a ticket if you think we’ve overlooked something, we may well have

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Suggest you try to fix those first.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

BuddyPress doesn’t use the session cache, though we do set the response header in some places, which I think is what session cache also tries to do.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Any JavaScript errors on that page?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Obviously, the best thing is to set up a test site with BuddyPress and see if it does what you want. I’d suggest using private groups (one per client / project). For document sharing within that group, see https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-documents/

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

No, Welcome Pack doesn’t offer that option.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

Be polite.

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

How did you “uninstall” group forums?

[@djpaul Keymaster 14 years, 9 months ago]

What does it do at the moment?
