BuddyPress.org

As your first question, this is not a BuddyPress problem, you should check out the WP Doc for more information on how to do this. https://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Over_SSL

For your second question, I believe it is redirecting from the WP login into the BP login page.

Thanks for sharing @webbmasterpianise. If possible, also share it in the bbPress forum, I think some folks could benefit from it over there. =)

I don’t think this is related to BuddyPress. Check out some possible plugins here: https://wordpress.org/search/favourite+posts

Interesting question. As far as I understand, WordPress and BuddyPress, when at the same installation, they share the same user base/database. So at first, I’d say this is not possible.

But, I could think of a few areas where it’d be possible.

In a multisite installation;

Installing another version of WordPress in the same server,…[Read more]

Check out this thread: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/username-vs-display-name/ Maybe it can help.

As far as I can tell, you can copy the template into your theme and from there, alter to the desired output without affecting future BP updates.

You could create sidebar-buddypress.php and change the BuddyPress page you are using to load this particular template:

<?php get_sidebar('buddypress'); ?>

That would be one way of doing this.

Hi @batmanfan, I make @hnla‘s comment, mine. I’ve never used this plugin before, but I know what it does.

You’ll have better luck posting your question in the appropriate forum. =)

I don’t think this is the one, as this is related to a WordPress Multisite and it seems not your intent.

But test it out and see if it suits your needs. =)

All right, I understand your point and agree. The problem I see is that the search function is related to the searchable information in her profile, not in her profile description, or Bio as you call in your website.

Some examples to clarify:

If you search “creative”, it brings her as a possible result.
If you search “counselling” (not…[Read more]

You can have different domains in a WP MU installation. But in case you don’t want to use WP Mu, there is a plugin in WPMUDEV that I think can make what you aim for.

http://premium.wpmudev.org/projects/category/plugins/ – Unfortunately i don’t remember its name, but I remember its job is to duplicate content and user across websites/domains.

@loufernando I did a simple search and it did returned some results.

It is not a BuddyPress related question, but here it goes. At CSS-Tricks, Chris Coyer is using this plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/live-comment-preview/) to allow the user to preview their answer in the bbPress.

It is not the topic, but I think you can make it work.

@focallocal As far as I understood, you are trying to create a different layout for the Group Home Page.

If that’s the case, I’d recommend you check the Theme Development Documentation (https://codex.buddypress.org/themes/), you would create a custom template for the Group Home Page and let it the way you feel best.

Now about embedding a forum…[Read more]

@batmanfan You can make a forum private, public or hidden.
Check out the doc: https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started-with-bbpress/

You have no idea what you can learn by reading it. =)

Hi @iwishiknew,

what you trying to achieve can be accomplished with WordPress Multisite (WPMU), except for the shared forum part (maybe it is possible, if it is, I don’t know how).

In a WPMU, you can have, through sub-directories or sub-domains, several high level domain using the Domain Mapping plugin. I use it in my personal blog and it works…[Read more]

@matt-mcfarland very great guide. It is really helpful for us not PHP developer who thinks that accomplishing something like that would be hard work to do.

If you may, I’d recommend working this tutorial better and adding it to the Codex page. You talked in your guide that something like this hasn’t in the Codex, so please, add to it. The…[Read more]

The procedure explained in the article doesn’t apply. What would work for you is to install another WordPress installation in the subdomain with the only purpose of hosting BuddyPress. I’m not sure if that’s what you’re trying to do bu I’d recommend using WordPress Multisite for that.

I see, my point is that, if you have automatic updates activated, this would be the second phase of the update, updating the database.

I don’t know your setup, but I think your WordPress has automatic background updates enabled and when you tried to enter it, WordPress needed to update the database. I’m just guessing here, but it seems like it.
