BuddyPress.org

I’ve been watching this thread since @anointed ‘s first post and have been hesitant to jump in as most community members view moderators as part of the core team. So first let me state, as has been periodically stated in the past by other members and moderators, that I am not part of the core BuddyPress […]

Here’s what has changed in BP 1.2.x: https://trac.buddypress.org/query?groupdesc=1&group=milestone&milestone=1.2&milestone=1.2.1&milestone=1.2.2&milestone=1.2.3&milestone=1.2.4&order=milestone&col=id&col=summary&col=status&col=owner&col=type&col=priority&col=milestone You can do a similar search in WordPress Trac and see how much has changed in WP…[Read more]

BP 1.1.3 will not work with WP 3.0. You need to use BP 1.2.4.1. Before you do any updates to a production site, read the upgrade instructions, the readme.txt files, and throughly search these forums for discussions of issues people have had with upgrading to not only BP 1.2.x, but also WP 3.0. Of course, […]

rich! @ etiviti ( @nuprn1 ) –

Have you seen my WordPress Hook Sniffer Plugin? I created it out of necessity to figure out all the BuddyPress hook issues I was having.

@gezan – This one in particular. It is also needed for all plugin developers as well! https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2325 jjj has issued his own patch. I’m not sure why mine was not accepted and why his has not been implemented. It is a complex issue but with simple fixes that I detailed and provided in the patch. With […]

The BuddyPress Privacy Component is practically finished. However, I’m still waiting on a few patches to be added to BuddyPress. Hopefully the 1.2.5 release will incorporate those. If not, I’ll need to refactor a few functions to work around various BP hook issues. I’m also waiting on the release of WP 3.0. As you may […]

Make sure that your WordPress installation is working before adding BuddyPress. Your hosting package must meet these requirements at a minimum. Also, as rich! @ etiviti ( @nuprn1 ) states, you can learn a lot about potential install issues by checking your server’s log files.

I’m closing down this thread as you have the contact information of the OP if you are interested in their theme work. @ferhat – You are going to have a difficult time selling your themes if you do not have an active website that demos your works for sale. Asking people to contact you via email […]

@arxpoetica –

I’m glad that you find the WP Hook Sniffer useful. Thanks for the donation!

I had @mikepratt download it today to help him out with an add_action function that was not firing.

@mercime –

Yeah, that was my suggest above as well.

@arxpoetica et al –

I just created the private BP group Semantic Web and Open Stack Integration to focus our discussions. As it is a private group, you must request membership. I felt it was better to create a private group so that we could ensure the conversations are maintained at the proper level.

@DJPaul

That is a good point. However, since BP.org is currently pulling in all plugins that include the “buddypress” tag, there is not much we can do. If we had a BP.org plugin and theme moderator, that would be different!

You must always deactivate any BuddyPress-specific plugins before upgrading or reinstalling BuddyPress. That is why your first attempt failed. Moving your plugins outside of the /plugins directory basically accomplished that for you. https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/upgrading-from-10x/ From that Codex article: “…it’s a good idea to d…[Read more]

@dancole It depends on your definition of “near future”. Since all authentication is handled by WordPress, not BuddyPress, this project is truly a WordPress-specific feature. We are forming a group to work on this issue and also discuss the possibilities of implementing Semantic Web and / or Open Stack protocols in BuddyPress. But, this will not […]
