Maybe a option would be to have optional “po templates” for groups with a phrase/sentence that might suit a type of site better than others? and then have the word “group” optional?

just thought of this as well, could it not call the word “group” from the slug, ( edit group slug plug-in comes in here ) and then change it according to each sentence, like capitalize the 1st letter and strip of “s” and so on. Would be alot of work but ye..

@r-a-y, is this not maybe a bug or something as Iv’e tried various approaches and cant come right?

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

Here’s a good tut I always refer back to: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setting_up_php.html

It says for dreamweaver, but just follow up till the end of the xampp/mampp installation.

Edit: here’s the one I was looking for soz: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setting_up_php_03.html

@thelandman maybe build in something like this, https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/shockingly-big-ie6-warning/

I read about the plugin in one of my smashing mag books, somewhere.. But they really recommend it. It advises the user to try a different browser if they cant upgrade ie6 due to using windows 2000

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

There’s a plugin for this already, try searching the plugins next time.

If you edit bp-default, when you upgrade buddypress you will lose work done on bp-default.

Twenty ten is the wordpress default theme.

try this out: http://pastebin.com/LLK9emtd
Save the code as gfield in your plugins folder and activate it. It adds a additional field to step1 of group creation

Ye was just giving it as a reference, thanks techguy for making it clearer

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

past your code at http://pastebin.com then past the link here cause it wont show

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

@markhahnel mark, you want to put “header right?” in the header? if so just insert somehting like http://pastebin.com/U8L0YmbG or you can style it with heading tags like h3.

K got some1 else, anton, to confirm that it doesn’t work. would try play around with the changing the default pagination limit of 20 but that would be in the core I take it..

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

using po-edit makes it relatively easy and also the edit group slug plug-in. Also I think in most cases you would still have to change the wording ( “someone created the group soccer” to “someone created the sport soccer” would still need to be changed..) , having to use find and replace anyway.

Try editing in header.php in your theme. If you look at bp-default theme>header.php, on line 46+ you can see the menu tabs, just re-arrange them to suit your needs.

if you have firefox and firebug set up, try right click>inspect-element on the ‘?’ and see where it points to

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

should be wordpress>.htaccess

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

Yes, it does work.
“but i must update BP manually” well there might be a problem where its timing out or something via automatic upgrade, thats why I said try uploading it manually..

Well is there anything that you need in there ( buddypress ), if not then just try deleting the buddypress folder, ( should be able to log into admin panel now? ), upload buddypress manually to wp-content>plugins and try activate it.

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

@DJPaul Ive tried it in my theme and bp-default and can’t come right? Could you please check if its on my side?

Ive cleared my cache and everything I can think of, im pritty sure its not my side?

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

@DJPaul yip its in my theme. Bleh, I can be stupid. Like 3 days ago I added “wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/about’);” to my theme. Kinda the same thing.. Still getting to grasps with php

K been a while now and I still can’t come right. Tried using “This is the way you can add the various parameters directly” and “If you want to use multiple parameters it’s sometimes easier to use an array like this”.

Am I editing the right file? If I modify the groups loop; that should limit the pages of all groups right? Can some one give me an example of the modified groups loop limiting something so I can understand where I’m going wrong please.

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

Great idea. Would work great on my current project.

And we apparently just hosted the soccer world cup

k ill stop spamming now

[@nit3watch Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

try uploading it manually to wp-content>plugins and activate it in the plugins panel.
