Forum signatures are mostly external links. When they bear the same color, users might jump to the conclusion that they are a part of the site navigation
What is your skill level when it comes to HTML/CSS?
A reseller account gets the same resources and limitations that shared hosting accounts are allocated. They both cough in the same boat and same environment. What about a VPS?
What you recommend?
should I uninstall buddypress’s default installation and go for bbpress 2? And also another thing noteworthy is if you use bbpress as group’s forums you can simply import and export forums, topics and replies easily
Above Plugin “Limits only members with a certain amount of points access to updates & replies”. I am going to give it a try. I find this whole thing as Psychological. Limiting “User Updates” in this era of spamming is “Logical” and most developers are “Psychos”
Most use these scripts to build small niche communities. But they claim “Social Networking out of the Box”. Its too large a thing for most webmasters. Who need to build next facebook? Its already built up from scratch. These are not so customizable as per the users requirements. Cannot limit even email “Juggernaut”
With the pure generosity. I wasnt promoting it. Putting an alternative link to consider for the convenience of those who still havent made there minds on one script to stick with (like me)
A good riddance. Disable Group Forums within buddypress and uninstall the installation. Use bbpress 2 for group forums. At least Posts and topics will ever remain untouched
And also all the bbpress plugins like bbpress topic location and bbcode are well served within groups. I wonder why these buddypress guys dont cater it at first place (bbpress 2.0) without tweaking an old version. Burgess Hills must be under heavy rain or bbpress raining on buddypress’s parade?
Marvelous. This thing is going to keep me stuck with bbpress+buddypress (for how long? I have no clue). bbpress new version is deeply integrated into buddypress provided Buddypress group forums is disabled and uninstalled.
go to bbpress forums and creat a new forum or category and in the bbpress settings select it as the group forums base. At the moment you cannot have more than one forum or a category for a group. I hope things will change.
And also it promises changing things wont erase previously owned stuff. (Dont forget to check whether “Forums” in the “Settings” or “Component” tab (I dont remember where it is) of Buddypress is unchecked)
I tried Buddypress User Account Type Lite plug in. But it doesnt work either. Nothing is capable of overwriting Buddypress default user capabilities. First I left Elgg because of a stupid “Privacy Access Option” built into it, now I think history is taking a fresh turn. Both scripts are useless for content driven social networks or “should be well moderated sites”
