Need a solution that blocks any ip that reaches URL/register The only visits to this URL are spam bots trying to sign up.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 10 months ago]

The real issue is bots know the URL because its standard and will not help the hundreds of hits per hour wasting resources. It’s not a matter of blocking sign ups it’s blocking server hits.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 10 months ago]

For the time being I used this in .htaccess. Would like a way to auto ban.

Redirect /register http://www.google.com

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 10 months ago]

The define codes only change the URL not the title in the tabs.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

Have you tried one of the grid frameworks? I’ve used 960 fluid.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

I wouldn’t use the template pack. I’d create my own framework with the bp files inside or call them via a child theme. There isn’t a right or wrong way but the template pack is really for someone who isn’t capable of coding and a quick start to adding BP to an existing WordPress. If you go the template pack route then the files could be out of sync with the BP core.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

Create a file called bp-custom.php, put that file in your plugins folder and add all your functions to customize BuddyPress in this file.

https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/changing-internal-configuration-settings/

It says to use wp-config but don’t. Use bp-custom file then you wont ever loose the settings

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

Looks good, love the color scheme.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

what version of BuddyPress?

The share button is on the activity stream but the javascript is not working.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

Why wait? I think it could be tossed in easily with a if has nav and use the old li links as an else. It’s not like it’s some crazy functionality, it’s built into wordpress and added with minimal fuss.

If it’s not in 1.2.7 I’ll write a tut. 1.3 probably won’t be around for months.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

It should show on the main BP blog. Is the share button showing on activity stream items?

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

1.2.7 which is coming soon.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

/%post_name%

Is the shortest. You really just need to choose something besides the default for BP links to work.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

Drop downs are coming to BP-default theme soon. you might want to wait instead of using a plugin.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

It’s custom and there was a tutorial awhile back that did something similar http://buddydev.com/buddypress/using-activity-as-wire-in-buddypress-1-2-themes/

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

members/single/activity/permalink.php

This is something that was debated before. I think it should match rest of site. Originally this page didn’t even have a navigation!

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

Give more info on your install. What versions and plugins.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

Try activating Twenty Ten theme and see if the BuddyPress theme fixes itself.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

The zip

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

It’s one of the plugins. You can test by renaming each plugin folder the same way. when you find the plugin that’s causing the problem delete it.

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

You might want bbpress instead

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

It will fit most any theme with some modification to the HTML and possibly CSS. https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

Try renaming your plugins folder to “pluginsoff”. Then try to access your wordpress admin. If you can then access the admin then change the plugins folder back to “plugins”

[@modemlooper Moderator 15 years, 11 months ago]

Easiest way is to remove all the li links from the header.php file except the home link and wp_list_pages( ‘title_li=&depth=1&exclude=’ . bp_dtheme_page_on_front() ); and then add a sidebar menu widget for any links you need. Next version of BP will use WP menus for the top nav so you won’t need to customize the html.

remove everything from between ul id=”nav”

replace with

<ul id="nav">
                <li<?php if ( bp_is_front_page() ) : ?> class="selected"<?php endif; ?>>
                    <a href="<?php echo site_url() ?>" title="<?php _e( 'Home', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( 'Home', 'buddypress' ) ?></a>
                </li>

                <?php wp_list_pages( 'title_li=&depth=1&exclude=' . bp_dtheme_page_on_front() ); ?>

                <?php do_action( 'bp_nav_items' ); ?>
</ul><!-- #nav -->

Try this css

div.subcontentpost h2{
text-overflow:ellipsis;
overflow:hidden;
white-space:nowrap;
}
