Addendum: two free ning to buddypress importers

Import from Ning: Import Ning users to WordPress and BuddyPress

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

I would suggest test WordPress/WordPressMU with BuddyPress out of the box at http://testbp.org/ (except header image which was added by Andy). Same username and password as you used in this site.

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

If you have WPMU installed, check out free plugin download by dsader at http://wpmudev.org/project/More-Privacy-Options The plugin adds 3 more levels pf privacy. It’s working in my WPMU 2.9.2.

Sure you could make some activity items with bigger font sizes of respective paragraphs (p) and links (a)
body.activity .groups
body.activity .new_forum_topic
body.activity .activity_update
body.activity .created_group
body.activity .activity
body.activity .has-comments
body.activity .profile
body.activity .new_member
body.activity .mini
body.activity .joined_group
to name a few – Install Firebug, Firefox add-on, to check the classes/ID’s of stream you want to

@scwcreative Set permalinks to other than default and save

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

This could have been caused if you installed WP/MU via simplescripts, fantastico, etc. Delete previous installation including htaccess file generated and wp-config (if MU) and drop database tables.
Do manual upload of WP or MU via FTP or cpanel and install.
Go to dashboard > Settings > Permalinks and run it.
Do FTP/cpanel upload of BuddyPress plugin.
Activate BP plugin and go to BP settings page to enable components.

If you need a sidebar widget in author’s blog then you could use

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

If you’re not using it yet, download and install Firebug, Firefox add-on, which will help you identify the ID’s and classes associated with the elements you want to reposition in the compose message page and add such in your theme’s style.css. Either that or change the files or just the compose.php within bp-template-pack/templates/members/single/messages/ like you did with the files you changed in template pack.

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

Change to bp-default theme and see if creation of groups and posting to group forum works.
If that doesn’t work, help us help you.

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

Hast anybody tried to either:
1. copy https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/tags/1.2.3/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/register.php
and paste it to home.php or page template and make it static page
0r
2. create home.php or create a page template and add this

edit – tried every which way to post it —- locate_template …. array … registration/registration.php …. true

Allowing upload of avatar/image file at signup in open registration installs could lead to hacking of your system. I’ve cleaned a site where uploaded .jpg contained hacker scripts instead of real image files.

how about

This is a pre thingy 

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

You should ask this question in the Alpha/Beta forum https://wordpress.org/support/forum/12

@Andrea_r has posted relevant info about setting up a Network in WP 3.0
https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network
Note : Subdomains work by using wildcard subdomains. You must have this enabled in Apache, and you must also add a wildcard subdomain to your DNS records. Some hosts will not support this, so you may need to ask your webhost before enabling this feature.
Which means you do not and should not add the subdomain physically to your server. The subdomains generated by WPMU and WP 3.0 are virtual subdomains.

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

Sure, you can manipulate page layouts with CSS. Before going further, what theme are you using? Also – help us help you.

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

Re CosmicBuddy theme, do you have the upgraded one compatible with BP 1.2?
As for Ines and Skyper themes by milo, the theme support forum is here

There are also other BP Child themes available that should be compatible with BP 1.2
https://buddypress.org/extend/themes/

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

Caught in the first part of your post: “one root domain + multiple sub-domains with their own BP installs”
Not possible yet, It’s been discussed before and again here https://buddypress.org/community/groups/requests-feedback/forum/topic/multiple-budypress-networks-one-install/
Who knows, possibly after WP 3.0 /BP 1.3, there’ll be a plugin to do so.

In addition, if you want the new Admin that you might have added only via “Users > Add New” to have Site Admin privileges, then you must also add said new Admin’s username in “Site Admin > Options > Administration Settings – Site Admin” box and Save options.

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

@Andrea_r, I was thinking about the same thing. Perhaps a coding guru who can create a multi-site plugin for WPMU can make a multi-site plugin for BP? (hint, hint)

[@mercime Participant 16 years, 5 months ago]

@techguy,”Then I think he’d get a whole group of people helping to support and test his plugin.”
Yeah he does have a group of people testing his plugin, the premium members who paid for like 3 family-size pizzas over three months, and it has been worth every penny.
@sbrajesh will be releasing the BP Gallery plugin to the public for free when it’s ready to be released. And when he says he will release the plugin for free, I know he will.
