thanks for trying – yip did both steps – same issue – server?

[@maddogmcewan Participant 10 years, 6 months ago]

replace that 2nd line with $blogname = esc_attr( sanitize_html_class( $_REQUEST['site'] )) ;

[@maddogmcewan Participant 10 years, 6 months ago]

excellent got it working. I added this to the footer area in create.php

<?php get_footer( 'buddypress' ); 
	$blogname = esc_attr( $_REQUEST['site'] ) ;
?>

<script language="javascript">
var blogname;
blogname = document.getElementById('blogname');
if(blogname){
blogname.value = "<?php echo $blogname;?>";
}
</script>

hi henry thanks you am going to try that – i managed to echo the variable in the footer using $blogname = esc_attr( $_REQUEST['site'] ) ; but the next trick is to replace the empty value in the site domain textbox with the form post value. Will let you know. Thank you for the help

ok found issue – had the BP Tools Master Plugin installed prior to doing update

[@maddogmcewan Participant 10 years, 8 months ago]

problem persists on all sites/networks where BP is activated – subdomain blogs that dont have BP active seem to load admin fine

Hi – we are about to kick off dev on a proper (android 1st/ios 2nd) Buddypress application – if anyone is interested in getting involved you can find me at http://smeak.com. I have a “small” budget allocated to this project, working with an Indian based dev company to basically provide “FB app clone” functionality for BP – but really would like some involvement from the BP community on this.

According to dev co the initial release with basic BP functionality (as in sign up/login/post status, friends list, wall updates, upload image etc) will be ready in 40 days….

@jancbeck – i haven’t done much lately to improve the plugin, for me I think next step would be to add the ability to edit fields, then step 2 would be to incorporate some xprofile fields – if i do anything I am happy to share

been running cometchat pro at http://smeak.com … and loving it, tried MANY chat systems… where else can u chat with googleplus or FB users from within BP, or mobile chat to android… share whiteboards and video chat etc…. worth the money in every way

[@maddogmcewan Participant 11 years, 8 months ago]

I swear by BuddyStream … it works like a horse at http://smeak.com – LOVE IT

[@maddogmcewan Participant 11 years, 8 months ago]

tried quite a few at http://smeak.com (boWob came close) , but cometchat won hands down … allows you to chat from within BP to googleplus and FB users… also has nobile chat

[@maddogmcewan Participant 11 years, 8 months ago]

you should also look at an old plugin called BP Resume it nay be of some use to you…. I tweaked it a bit at smeak.com and it works quite well

[@maddogmcewan Participant 11 years, 9 months ago]

Hi not sure if this is what you are trying to do, if you go to http://smeak.com you can see it at work, we split the notifications intro 3, and into a custom toolbar we built for the network. Let me know to see if we can help

Have checked and multichecked wp.config, have checked htaccess, have totally replaced all wp-include and wp-admin files and root folder php files to original, have set folder permissions up to 777 on wp.content and set to recurse, have tried every theme, including default BP…. avatars go blocky after a while, and when you try to upload any avatar via BP Change Avatar, it uploads fine but then shows a block size of about 80 pixels by 80 pixels of the image uploaded’s top left hand corner only..

Any ideas on ending this nightmare… and no not gravatar. Also I found that when i upload via admin dashboard using say plugin like Local Avatar, it works fine… Yep, removed just about all plugins, including Quick Cache… totally lost on this

[@maddogmcewan Participant 12 years, 1 month ago]

same issue – and guess followed by absolute silence,

[@maddogmcewan Participant 12 years, 1 month ago]

yep i have same issue

[@maddogmcewan Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

@modemlooper thank you indeed… and by the by … great respect, you are truly a guru for many of us ! keep looping !

[@maddogmcewan Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

try the QUICK FLAG plugin (http://www.techytalk.info/wordpress-plugins/quick-flag/), it will get you half way there

[@maddogmcewan Participant 12 years, 3 months ago]

not so sure bout Invite Anyone, because it DOES keep a log of exactly who a user has invited and the status of his invite as in ACCEPTED with the date etc…. so in essence it COULD form the basis of something bigger… I have tried all above and quite like Invite Anyone… which i could post an image here to show you

Invite Anyone

[@maddogmcewan Participant 12 years, 3 months ago]

brilliant, next Q, is there a plugin that can “populate” a text field with data from the wp DB? example say i wanted to show the users country field from wp_users field or say his membership level from membership pro table?

@erikahrend – I managed to get it working on bp 1.6.1, was a bit of a mission… I read in another post somewhere that the plugin conflicts with anothet plugin called BP Album, even if you installed it before just for testing, and uninstalled it, Album causes Photo+tag to “work” but not allow the tagging procedure.

For me a plugin like this is FUNDAMENTAL to any good social network… so NOT being a PHP programmer of any note, (an old ASP guy), i decided two nights ago that I was not going to sleep till I got this working…

Anyway in a nutshell, I replace every reference in all photo+tag pages from “album” to “albumtag”, making sure any capitalisation e.g. ALBUM was replaced with ALBUMTAG… anyway long story short, it works in WP3.4.2 and BP 1.6.1…

NOW PLEASE PHP gurus… why overlook the importance of this PLUGIN. It has the foundings of something great… If I had the skills needed I would

> Improve the drop down box that allows you to select the BP member you are tagging
> Add uploaded pics to an “album” folder with a thumb
> send auto message to tagged person saying “you have been tagged” – yes i know it posts a notification on their activity feed…

ANY VOLUNTEERS – c’mon lets not let this great plugin go to waste !!! LEND A HAND, MAKE BP GREAT

[@maddogmcewan Participant 12 years, 3 months ago]

seems a terrible way to get buttons to show… i have the same problem and really don’t want to recreate all the blogs… also i find that after creating a group via the backdoor route, group shows up fine, but creat new group icons not showing in BP nor does the button to post an activity feed update, the input box loads fine, but the submit buttons are nowhere in site or onsite
