modemlooper posted on the forum topic BuddyPress Privacy: Can we get it in core? in the group Requests & Feedback: 13 years, 10 months ago

This is not a forum for bashing @jeffsayre. Please keep it on topic by discussing adding privacy to the core of BuddyPress.
modemlooper posted on the forum topic BuddyPress Privacy: Can we get it in core? in the group Requests & Feedback: 13 years, 10 months ago

I’m not excluding BP devs creating their own core privacy functionality. I think this is something very much needed or people wouldn’t be in such hot debate over why or why not @jeffsayre hasn’t released it. That said I just figured if jeff’s plugin is worthwhile to be integrated then add it otherwise create an internal […]

So @jeffsayre is releasing BP Privacy to the masses and asking for developers to take it over. I think this should just be added to BuddyPress core as it’s a too important feature that many if not every last BuddyPress site wants.

Thoughts?

@jeffsayre Hi Jeff,
I’m new to BuddyPress and am having a difficult time finding a current post/article that explains how to remove the username from BP registrations. Can you provide some guidance?

Thanks!

@jeffsayre has a privacy plugin due out soon.

@jeffsayre Jeff – please forgive me. I’m about to surrender to the madness.

I have a problem installing BuddyPress on an existing WordPress install. In a nutshell – the “activation” of BuddyPress from the plugins results in a server error: HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was…[Read more]
stevenkword posted on the forum topic bp_setup_nav not firing in the group Creating & Extending: 13 years, 11 months ago

@jeffsayre I believe this topic was started before the BP 1.0 release. I have still experiencing problems hooking into bp_setup_nav() and would like to know if altering the core files is the only way to solve the problem. I am currently testing using functions.php and have not been able to get the hook to fire. If […]

@jeffsayre Hello jeff i saw your reply in regards to the forum setup and read it a few times. i am still lost. i tried using an existing bbpress installation and got the following message:

Forums Setup
The bb-config.php file was not found at that location, please try again.

then i went to use: set up a new bbpress installation – it said:

A Weathers posted on the forum topic Buddypress on Multisite in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years ago

@jeffsayre yes, i posted this in trouble shooting when i thought that it was actually possible to accomplish this with BP and WPMS…since then it’s become apparent that it’s not possible and thus my post yesterday in “Requests and Feedback”…my assumption is that request and feedback are used for the development scope of future builds and […]
beraike22 posted an update 14 years ago

@jeffsayre Thanks for the responce, I went through the list of links you sent me, and nothing there helped. I don’t see how it can be the server as I have this on 3 different website, with 3 different servers. Greengeeks, gaterhost and godaddy. 2 cpanels, and one ftp. This worked great until I update to the new buddypress. Is there a way I…[Read more]

@jeffsayre Hey Jeff,

I updated the new BuddyPress last week. However now when a new user tries to create a membership via the Swapistan.com/register/ page, nothing happens and the same register page refreshes itself. No confirmation email is sent, no record of them signing up appears on the users list on the dashboard. I tried disabling all…[Read more]

  Several possibilities that revolve around your host and/or server configuration. If the below links do not help, you’re best bet is to work with your hosting provider.

farmer paul posted on the forum topic Writing a new plugin – get 404 not found when accessing screen in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years ago

Thanks, @jeffsayre. I must have missed that page when I was browsing the Codex. I was following the Skeleton Component because my coworkers had recommended it to me. However, apparently none of them tried writing a BP plugin that provided a root component! Now my problem isn’t that I’m getting a 404 error anymore. Instead, now […]
Brian JM posted on the forum topic Privacy Comes to BuddyPress (very soon)! in the group Third Party Components & Plugins: 14 years ago

@jeffsayre Uhhh… is it the 8th or is it the 15th? The main page says the 8th, today, but the badge at the top says 15th.
Peter Kirn started the forum topic Attacking spam — different approaches + results in the group Spam Eater: 14 years ago

We’ve just gotten through some epic development work, nearly at the end, which leaves more time to turn more efforts to truly spam-proofing BP. So, I’ve tried a number of things, and I have a site that’s getting actively targeted enough that I’m getting some data. (Had had conversations with @jeffsayre + @apeatling at various times…) While […]

@crashutah TBH, I really need the @jeffsayre privacy plugin & still have no idea if it even requires custom template files if used on a non default theme… I expect it to be a top class plugin as its coded by a top class coder & want to support it as much as possible but it’s pretty […]
Matt Edminster posted an update 14 years, 1 month ago

@jeffsayre Wondering if your privacy plugin will address content creation permissions as well? Really looking forward to what you’ve come up with.
- Jeff Sayre replied 14 years, 1 month ago
  
  I’m not exactly sure what you’re asking as anything created in BuddyPress is technically user-generated content. The BuddyPress Privacy Component (BPPC) offers users privacy control of BuddyPress specific content–in other words content unique to BP’s control.
  
  However, I assume you’re referring to what is generally termed Role-based Access Control…[Read more]
  - Matt Edminster replied 14 years, 1 month ago
    
    That’s actually a very helpful explanation Jeff. What it means for me is that any bp component that I activate (minus groups) will be available to anyone on the bp network. This is important since our site is built on a distinction between “official” and “community” content. That means that if I want RBAC control over content creation, I ought to…[Read more]
    - Jeff Sayre replied 14 years, 1 month ago
      
      That is correct. As it currently stands, BuddyPress does not offer any way to provide RBAC. If BP ever integrates roles into its core, then that could be used to turn my BuddyPress Privacy Component into a full-fledged RBAC. Until that happens, there is no practical way to do it.

RE: @crashutah – Have you tried to make a contribution to: @jeffsayre It’s amazing what $$ can do to influence people.
In all fairness, I haven’t, but have offered to test & report feedback many times.
