Bump Bump

I get the same thing. When I go to /wp-admin. I get an error

Fitz, LMS’s would be yet another good purpose for roles in buddypress. Not sure why we’re not getting a response here. Seems like a big issue.

Here’s a little bump of requests, and reasons for added user capability management and/or user roles in buddypress. Sorry for the list, but it seems like there is some resistance in the BP community to doing this, while there are many requests for it. This couldn’t be done without user roles:…[Read more]

Perhaps a better place for courseware user role management would be to create a courseware section under groups –> admin –> manage members. Also, a good way to map wp roles to courseware capabilities would be to use wordpress function “current_user_can” to determine their wordpress role and tie it to a courseware capability. Let me […]

Mapping a wp role like editors to be able to assign users as teachers would be ideal for me. Additionally, mapping a wp roles in some way to restrict the ability of certain user from creating class/courses. As it is now, any user can create a course.

Thanks Stas. Do you ever sleep?

“Providing that flexibility is nice. However, with the exception of groups, there is no reason that the current BP core components need to offer the ability to assign roles. Why would a user want to grant someone the right to control their personal content? Facebook and Twitter don’t offer users that option.” — Jeff Sayre […]

I’m after it too vonkanehoffen. I’d have thought there would be lots of people in this boat. It seems the buddypress developers are discouraging the use of user capabilities in buddypress. They don’t want it to be used for content management. I’m not sure why. I think it is a mistake. It makes buddypress look […]

Hey Stas, a bit more feedback. Let me know if it gets to be too much. Believe it or not, I am a developer (I am not quite as talented as you), and I am going to make some code patch for courseware to use on my site and will share them with the group […]

So, by dynamic capabilities, do you me that hnla’s model of capabilities –> user roles –> user is going away and being replaced by capabilities –> user That is, every user has his own set of capabilities, and some of the capabilities may be the ability to assign capabilities to other users? If that is […]

Sorry for all the suggestions, I am just trying to give constructive feedback to help improve courseware for user need. I understand that teacher and students are implemented by using labels in the profile, which is what is complicating for the users, since “teacher” and “student” sound like roles with different capabilities. The problem is, […]

Not sure if this is related to compatibility issues with WP 3.1 and Buddypress 1.2.8. However, that is what I am running, and I can’t promote anyone to teacher. The only person I can promote to Teacher is myself as a super admin (by going to Members –> Profile –> Edit Profile). It would be […]

Sweet. Thanks.
