@alanchrishughes said: “What is the idea even behind this “groups” concept? I have been trying to understand it and figure out a way to just work with it, but it just doesn’t make sense, it’s backwards.” Just waking up Alan, so I hope I haven’t completely misunderstood. Personally, I’ve always been interested in how people respond […]

@jmarino; If all else fails, you can just pull the plugin folder. WP and BP are neat that way, as they just report that the plugin is gone and deactivated when you go to the plugins page again. (Other systems we’ve tried freeze and die totally, which is no fun).

Oh good grief! @LPH2005; thank you. I’d installed W3 Total Cache, set it up and forgot about it. Then noticed terrible lagging on my BP site. Just switched off page caching and zippeee… This should go on a BP Wiki page entitled, “Things that will bite you in the ass without any warning”. 🙂

Edit: PoEdit is a great utility for creating the required language file from the BuddyPress basic .pot, and is available for various systems at http://sourceforge.net/projects/poedit. @crashutah; Thanks for the link. I was just pondering the idea, and what might already exist, but I’ll create a language file now which will save me a lot of time […]

@nuprn1; I’m switching off and taking a much needed break, but again, thanks for your help. That function means little to me in terms of where it goes (I’m assuming in an overridden theme file). I’m also guessing that the guy who asked the original question might also say, “What?!” Yes, there’s the codex, and god […]

@nuprn1; I know you’re trying to help, but you might as well have said “Just create world peace; end of problems”. For those who aren’t used to creating plugins, hooking into WP and BP functions, etc., (and more importantly, who don’t have the time to learn it all right now) this is quick, and it works. […]

We aim to please. And also strip 60% of BuddyPress away so it functions in ways ordinary users can understand. 🙂

@corell; The View link confuses people, we find, though others here said it’s useful as a permalink for bookmarking. Without it, people could lose track of posts in the Activity stream. However, for non-techie users and those not used to Internet blogs and forums, etc., the Favourite link does a better job and means more to […]

Hi @thekmen, @nuprn1. I got mixed up about how the theme lays out pages, trying to fix a number of things all at once, as you do. I think the BP theme issues others have faced too are because its layout in terms of file structure seems over-complicated after modifying ordinary WP themes. I may get some […]

@johnjamesjacoby; G’morning mate (or not, as may be your geographical case!) I’ve just been modifying some BP core files, as I do, and keeping them separate so I can overwrite and restore as seems best. The main reason is that I’m very finicky about how things read English-wise for site users, as I’ve found it can […]

Hi Mary. There’s a very professional system called Moodle, in case you don’t know, which is a CMS a bit like WordPress, but made specifically for managing your teaching courses. http://moodle.org/

@nuprn1; Thanks for working on an update for Activity Bump. It reads much better now in the stream, and will make more sense to technophobes (who I seem to meet an awful lot!) Only one thing I’ve modified; there are lots of extra spaces, ie., a space + %nbsp + space, so I removed the extras […]

@thekmen; I’ve lost the plot now as I’m falling asleep, but will have a look tomorrow. Right now, I can’t see why the header links don’t show as they do on all other pages, the various php files filling in, as it were. It’ll probably make sense after a good sleep. Thanks for checking it […]

@thekmen; Yes, it’s at http://lincme.co.uk/conversation/. The View permalink page works now (thanks for the css tip Rich) but the display is still a bit odd, and there’s no header bar links. I’ll leave it up until tomorrow morning, then back on ‘maintenance’ so it doesn’t scare anyone. 🙂

Thank you! A bit of a dumb thing to do I’d have thought, adding another time stamp to the display? Fixed, though I’ve lost the ‘bump’. May have to hack that one.
