Andy I sent you a message but the duplication issue is still present.

I had to update the bp_activity_get_activity_id and groups_record_activity to use the 'secondary_item_id' => wp_hash( $post['link'] ) instead of the blogurl. Unfortunately that leads to a slippery slope problem when removing a feed as the code under edit_screen_save() references the blogurl

possible to hook into the bp_activity_meta table to assign the blogurl?

Also the group twitter at times is not saving the “in the group” link

and a feature suggestion -> limit the number of rss feeds (or published date) when fetching

BTW, yes, I understand the principles of customing skinning and css but what I am asking is that it surely must be a fairly simple implant or template linking.

you’ll need to create a new theme for bbpress, as i don’t believe a bbpress look-like buddypress is available

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

tagged 0.0.3 with the above fix and cleaned up the admin UI a bit.

optional to create just xml, gz or both

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

Why would a user have a @ in their username?!

on my site – it is very common to use the myname @ mycompanyname syntax (not even an email address just as a reference to whom they work for or affiliated with).

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

some of the references in the activity are hardcoded in the content column – so you may have to edit it manually to reference the updated member links.

as for the bbpress stuff – some last_poster names are also stored in the topic/posts tables – double check that.

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

i submitted a trac ticket (don’t have the url on hand) but i also outlined how to force the switch over to user_nicename – i had the same issue with email address as user_login and periods.

http://blog.etiviti.com/2010/02/forcing-buddypress-to-use-user_nicename-for-member-urls-and-mentions/ (but that is for 1.2 and haven’t looked at it for 1.2.1)

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

Beer and BuddyPress? Sounds like a great combo (and Arrogant Bastard is one of my favs)

What is running the reviews? single wp?

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

BP1.2? Did you try defined( ‘BP_ENABLE_USERNAME_COMPATIBILITY_MODE’ ) ?

this will switch the username from user_login to user_nicename

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

that may run into a conflict with the urls loc

Google has detected some URLs that appear to be at a higher level or different domain than the Sitemap file location. If you receive this error, try moving your Sitemap file to a higher location in your site and submitting again. For instance, if your Sitemap is listed under http://www.example.com/mysite/sitemap.xml, the following URLs are not valid for that Sitemap:

* http://www.example.com/ – it’s at a higher level than the Sitemap

* http://www.example.com/yoursite/ – it’s in a directory parallel to the Sitemap

you can uncheck the xml file and just generate a .gz of each -BUT i just realized this causes a bug and won’t create the sitemapindex – this will be fixed in 0.0.3

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

ok, tagged on wordpress repo v0.0.2

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-sitemap-generator/

Hopefully next weekend I’ll get the Admin UI cleaned up, some documentation, and a priority calculator

Also looking for MU users to test it out.

…and least Google accepted it

IMHO – being overcritical will not solicit the best help. Like any community – you’ll need to fight spam regardless of the platform and requires ongoing patience to battle.

Some tricks I use

block all MSIE456 users, block bad bots, block known spammer country CDIR ranges, rename template pages, try whatever plug-in and tweak if needed.

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

If you look at the theme file /members/single/member-header.php

<?php bp_displayed_user_fullname() ?> is displayed in the h2 tag along with the atme mention @<?php bp_displayed_user_username() ?>

just replace it

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

yep and bbPress will have the same issue if you use it externally but sharing the same tables (unique circumstances)

@MrMaz a far fetched feature suggestion – the ability to bring links into the group context. (if i wanted to share links at the group level as well as general categories for all)

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

I’m 85% certain this was all the changes I made to the core files

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

This is the development version zip. It will always contain the latest trunk. Normally this is not recommended, but you guys seem to really want to play with it so ymmv.

feeling frisky… just installed and everything looks ok so far on single WP.

such a great plug-in!

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 3 months ago]

Admin -> Settings -> Reading

but I just noticed you have to have a “page” setup in WP in order for the “Front page displays” to appear

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

@zooney

.I have to admit I’m a little baffled as to why there needs to be a “username compatibility mode”. Wouldn’t using the “user_nicename” for everything (except just literally displaying the username) sidestep any issues with the actual form of the username? I’m just speaking from my wealth of ignorance, but that just seems weird to me.

i had the same thought and problem with @ in the user_login (hence switching everything to nicename)

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

i believe that is in the activity-loop but if you look at the feed code

bp_has_activities( 'max=50&display_comments=stream&search_terms=@' . bp_core_get_username( $bp->displayed_user->id, $bp->displayed_user->userdata->user_nicename, $bp->displayed_user->userdata->user_login ) ) )

i guess you could access it directly as well

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

members/single/member-header.php

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

on RC2 and using both plug-ins…

Everything imported fine during the initial seed but I found the records in the activity table started to disappear – the newest items (rss feed either blog posts or twitter statuses) to a point where only items from 3 months ago was present.

Each time I visited the group it was incrementally removing the items. ie first day everything showed, next was 3 days off, a week, month, then 3 months ago and so forth.

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

found the resolution here:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/adding-content-to-the-12-default-theme-homepage/page/2

guess i wasn’t the only one going crazy with an older home.php with merging the trunk.

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

I hate to sound stupid but this is exactly what I have tried and nothing

even tried this suggestion with front page set to nothing (previous activity)

You should make sure you have nothing set for the “Front Page” and then “Blog Test” set for the posts page, I’ve tested this on my setups and it works fine.

Any help? (tried to create a few test blog posts after changing the settings – while they appear ok when directly accessed, nothing on the test page I have setup)

RC2 + Single WP

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

I created a ticket but I’m unable to get the post to page setting working as well

(the new page just shows the activity as well)

[@nuprn1 Participant 16 years, 4 months ago]

see my post

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/all-links-are-working-minus-my-adminauthorall-of-my-pages

that was my fix to get around the inconsistent username stuff (default everything to nicename for the urls)
