@ceuwer @shanebp,

FYI: If you copy/paste, be sure to modify the double quotes to the proper double or to single quotes…

`define(“BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT”,”profile”);` or,

`define(‘BP_DEFAULT_COMPONENT’,’profile’);`

@mercime got it. Thanks!

@prometheus-fire

Did you get to a satisfactory solution that you are willing to share?

Also, since you brought up the WIki example, have you been able to upload images and video on the front end with that plugin?

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 2 months ago]

@mercime, I’ve added several more comments to the one you referenced in testbp.org. You will see what I’m concerned about… try to add a 16th comment for laughs. This is an extreme case but I think it illustrates the point.

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 2 months ago]

@mercime …nested comments within the activity stream. You are correct! Thanks for the quick reply.

@buddypressrocks,

Well with iPhoto, one could upload a photo to Facebook and as long as you’ve enabled the setting in Buddystream, the photo will be available under your profile. I am not sure but I believe the Buddystream folks are working on allowing the user to specify which albums to pull from FB. It’s somewhat indirect but would work… Also Brajesh at Buddydev may be working on this for his new version of BP Gallery.

@artfusion: I upgraded from 1.5.1 to 1.5.3 and ran into similar trouble. Allegedly (and were provided the error log entry for each), the culprit were two plugins: BP-Testimonials and Buddypress Stalker. My hosting provider had to remove both from the plugin folder to bring my site back up. Hope that helps.

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 6 months ago]

You should pose this question on the s2member site. Although not a production site yet, I have s2member working on my WP 3.2.1 / BP 1.5.1 installation without any issues. So, I think your best bet is the s2member forum where they can guide you through the proper configuration.

This may get you part of the way there:

BuddyPress Custom Background For User Profile

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 6 months ago]

Sweet!

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 6 months ago]

@lndlyb4, do you know how this could be done for a specific page template? Some plugins use this generic comment form, so it would be great to tune the greeting per the subject of the plugin’s purpose. Thanks for providing your helpful hint!

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 6 months ago]

@ultimateuser,

Slider Pro is great and the support that David provides is second to none. http://sliderpro.net/

@djpaul,

I don’t believe I am unless a plugin is doing that. Just so that I’m clear, if I use BP Default, choose my Profile, scroll up so that the top of my avatar just kisses the admin bar, and then select the Sites tab or any other tab, the page position resets itself to the very top of the window.

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

Native translation based on the local language setting would be sweet. So, Geneveve in France posts her comment/post in French, and when it pops in the activity stream anywhere, that French post is automatically translated to the native language. THEN to take it to the next level, let’s say someone is tutoring the language. The tutor should have the ability to enclose the text he/she doesn’t want translated per the language tutoring exercise; thus, only the text that requires translation is automatically translated. If you’re gonna dream, dream big!

Buddypress enables so many possibilities…

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

mercime, I am not ready to implement either one just yet, but that was helpful. Thanks!

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

Thanks Paul, I was in the process of putting on my boots to go find me some ah ‘dem har tires to kick! I am very much a newbie and do understand the frustration but that energy could be more productively spent. Anyway, Boone did a couple great Buddypress presentations which can be found on WordPress TV. Also, there’s a Buddypress for Dummies book. Both provide good foundational material even though neither are up-to-date. But I think that’s awesome because it means we’ve got some very committed people in this community who are intent on continuous improvement.

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

@shanebp,

Did you get resolution on your question about “search terms”? Do you mind sharing the code that worked for you?

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

Thanks, Boone!

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 7 months ago]

@katje, were you able to get a resolution on finding a multiple-criteria “search” plugin?

@boonebgorges, Boone, I hope I’m not hijacking the thread because my question reflects one of katje’s questions: Is there a plugin or something close (that I could point a developer to) that would accomplish a multiple criteria search across the membership directory? Here’s a scenario: Let’s say that my membership comprises global athletes, both professional and social. Furthermore, each one of these athletes compete in many different sports. My potential membership could be in the hundreds of thousands, probably millions. My users would need a way to sift through a directory of that size. So, if my xprofile fields contain tria-thletes some of whom have held the profession of astronaut, then I dare say 99.99% of the membership would not meet that criteria. It’s an extreme example which I hope illustrates the need across general searches.

BTW, if this is considered hijacking a thread, please let me know and I’ll create a new topic.

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

@pcwriter…You rock! Thanks.

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

@djpaul, Thanks. I did what you suggested and more. No go. Since I have more control on my local installation, I re-installed WordPress, then BP 1.5.1 (using the bp-default). No luck. I uninstalled 1.5.1 and tried with 1.5. No luck. I uninstalled 1.5 and tried with BP 1.5 RC. No luck.

Other than you saying that it exists, I’m beginning to think that sub-menu item was always a figment of my imagination. I don’t know what else to try. Any suggestions?

[@qrahaman Participant 14 years, 8 months ago]

@DJPaul,

Thanks for replying. I ran it against an online validator which resulted in 9 errors (all of them having to do with declaration): for example, html, head, meta, title, link, etc “must be declared” in the header.php file.

Do you see anything here?

`<?php
/**
* Header Template
*
* Here we setup all logic and XHTML that is required for the header section of all screens.
*
*/
global $woo_options;
$filagree = get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/images/filagree.png’;
if ( isset( $woo_options ) && ( $woo_options == ‘true’ ) ) {

if ( isset( $woo_options ) && ( $woo_options != ” ) ) { $filagree = $woo_options; } else {
$filagree = get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/images/filagree.png’;
}
}
?>

<html >

<meta charset="” />

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href=”” media=”screen” />
<link rel="pingback" href="” />

@kirkslater, nice idea! I hope you don’t mind me piggy backing off your post but your idea brought a related one to mind.

@sbrajesh, thanks for planting the seed. Is the following possible? Whether viewing the group or member directory, could the div for the list item; that is the row that contains the group or member, be made into a link that on hover, activates a tool tip that contains group or member profile data? And I’m not referring to hover over the existing member name link; since, in my opinion, this would require the user aim their cursor at a small defined space rather than the “acreage” a row represents.

The purpose behind the request is “context”. When looking at a list of members or groups, having the user click on the link for them to find out the details behind the member or group is wasteful and time-consuming. This is why kirkslater’s idea is so intriguing.
