Sociable for WordPress 3.0 works on BP.unfortunately Like button is on pro version only. On the other hand Facebook share still works.

[@muratk Member 14 years, 4 months ago]

not at all. we are talking about posts not profiles or activity streams.

[@muratk Member 14 years, 4 months ago]

fine but we need something dynamic to be put on every post on the BuddyPress site. on forums, groups etc…

[@muratk Member 14 years, 4 months ago]

no one is using Facebook Like?

[@muratk Member 14 years, 8 months ago]

nice and correct comments.

[@muratk Member 14 years, 8 months ago]

thanks. that helped. though that topic is not very helpful and doesn’t explain what to do for BuddyPress.

for non-English users, I will try to explain here.

via phpmyadmin go to your database. find wp_bb_topics table. click on structure. change all collation values to “utf8_general_ci”

do the same for wp_bb_posts table as well.

may be 1.3 will do it ?

it’s 1.2.3…

c) Rich media is obviously the most important feature of any so-called “social networking” software. How could the developers of BuddyPress even consider releasing the software without it?

this I can’t understand as well. How can you call BuddyPress “social networking” software without the ability of adding photos&videos? Activity streams are nice but worth nothing without sharing photos and videos.

[@muratk Member 14 years, 9 months ago]

I believe that BuddyPress should have the feature of adding photos, videos and links. We call this “Social networking” software, right?

So how can’t it have this feauture? This seemed really ridicolus to me when I first realized that BuddyPress doesn’t have this BASIC feature.

[@muratk Member 14 years, 9 months ago]

everybody is using cPanel. that can’t be the reason.

[@muratk Member 14 years, 9 months ago]

no I didn’t. If I do there will be 2 logins. this is not the case. Plugin should put the button under current login of BuddyPress default login.

[@muratk Member 14 years, 9 months ago]

I just tried this plugin. I don’t see any Facebook connect button… using BuddyPress 1.2.1

[@muratk Member 14 years, 9 months ago]

this is not a plugin? this is a script of it’s own.

[@muratk Member 14 years, 9 months ago]

the answer is certainly WordPress. If giving blogs to your users is not a must WordPress is the pnly answer.

Why? Because MU adds tables for every user and you get a huge database at the end. You will need a VPS for MU at least.

@itoube

I’m not asking here anything. I’m not the owner of this thread. it’s just interesting for me. the plugin you mentioned is not related with this thread either.

[@muratk Member 14 years, 10 months ago]

I was looking for same.

Could it be possible to have something like Facebook or Badoo does ? importing contacts from email addresses ?

[@muratk Member 14 years, 10 months ago]

@itoube

if he’s using WP instead of WPMU then the answer to “How do users make blog posts?” is “they just can’t”.

they can do blog posts. just change the user role and they post. He is not talking about giving blogs to users. He is talking about writing to site as a writer.

[@muratk Member 14 years, 10 months ago]

@itoube he’s using WordPress not WordPress MU.

question is interesting for me too.
