@mvvspr You know I didn’t try it on wpmu as I dont have an install. My test site is WP multi site and it works.

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 1 month ago]

Something must be wrong on your setup. I’ve added the plugin to 3 different sites without fail.

EDIT: oops the plugin folder is named wrong in the repo from my dev copy. fixed in repo should get an update notice.

Don’t edit the default theme create a child theme http://bit.ly/d4vh2u

H-mag is highly customized. They probably made their own components.

Did you try this one?

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 1 month ago]

You have to create a new language file or edit the template file post-form.php. If you edit theme files you need to create a child theme so your changes do not get erased when upgrading BP. http://bit.ly/bp-child-theme

Testing it here. http://tempsg.com/achievements/

Works great. The best part of this plugin is that is uses the front end instead of back end for creation of achievements. Nobody likes nauseating backends

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 1 month ago]

Ok, needs a last testing please

I agree 100% with @Travel-Junkie. Functionality should be a added via plugins however the default theme is a kitchen sink and some networks need to weed out some of the functionality built in.

“The only exception I can think of is a mobile theme.”

So true learning this the hard way with my mobile theme. The default theme just doesn’t work well on a mobile screen. It’s got too much functionality. Had to start from scratch and only pull out the content needed. Had to strip all the add actions otherwise any plugin not designed to work with it would break it.

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 1 month ago]

@bowromir thanks, I’ve noticed most plugins being developed are more component like (albums, achievements, jobboardr) than enhancements to UX. Figured i’d create some simple intuitive things.

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 1 month ago]

Doesn’t everything break in IE6

Modal windows YES!

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 1 month ago]

Be more specific. Forum directory or the forum group page? Same with blog. Front page or the single blog post page ?

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 1 month ago]

Cool, it will be in the repo soon. I need to finish a couple more things on it.

forums topics need a testing too

http://tempsg.com/groups/basic-group/forum/topic/this-is-a-test-topic/

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 1 month ago]

i don’t think that will work. All the forum links point to buddypress group forums.

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 1 month ago]

Is it a tabbed widget or a tabbed sidebar area you add widgets to?

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 2 months ago]

Not ready yet, having trouble getting 3-party buttons to work when you update the activity stream with ajax as it doesn’t reload the javascript for the buttons to show up.

Anyone good with jquery and loading external scripts via ajax?

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 2 months ago]

Try and re-save a custom permalink stucture.

bp_get_activity_thread_permalink();

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 2 months ago]

Weird Twitters js works fine but BUZZ and FB does not. FB likes button via iframe works.

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 2 months ago]

Hmm, maybe my approach is wrong and I shouldn’t load the buttons until “share’ is clicked.

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 2 months ago]

@joseffb I’ve tried that and it works but is not 100% The problem is WPTouch is made for a blog not groups, profiles and forums and various edit screens.

I’m putting together a simple default mobile theme based on the default BP theme. It’s not ready yet as a BP theme has many files to go through to make it look right.

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 2 months ago]

Couldn’t you create your own loop that calls the groups forums that you want. Then repeat it a few times for each group forum you want to list?

if ( bp_has_groups( ‘slug=GroupName’) ) :
locate_template( array( ‘forums/forums-loop.php’ ), true )
endif;

Or what about the forum extra’s plugin? https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-forum-extras/

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 2 months ago]

You can filter an activity stream https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-activity-stream-loop/

This only shows @mentions in an activity stream

if ( bp_has_activities( ‘scope=mentions&action=activity_update’ )) : bp_the_activity();

[@modemlooper Moderator 16 years, 2 months ago]

You would have to change the link in the plugin file.

Read Twitter’s documentation on creating your own button. http://dev.twitter.com/pages/tweet_button

I’m going to create a similar plugin that will have facebook share, digg, and google buzz.
