Make sure you’ve setup Embedly so Slideshare is enabled.
Works for me on my testbox.

You’d have to create your own conversion script.
If Sharetronix offers some type of export functionality, this would probably make things a little easier, though you’d still need to build a script so WordPress / BuddyPress can parse it.

r-a-y posted on the forum topic to use Buddypress function in my theme…. in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 15 years, 4 months ago
First, you have to ensure that you have BuddyPress installed and activated.
Next, make sure you are correctly typing in the BuddyPress function you want to use.Without knowing what function you’re trying to use, it’s hard to give further advice.

r-a-y posted on the forum topic How do I replace bp_core_new_subnav() with a customized version? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 15 years, 4 months ago
bp-custom.php might be too early to try the remove_action.
Try adding the snippet in your theme’s functions.php file.

r-a-y posted on the forum topic Does this work with bp_the_topic_latest_post_excerpt()? in the group oEmbed for BuddyPress: 15 years, 4 months ago
Hi, sorry for the late reply. Current iteration of the plugin doesn’t include support for topic excerpts. You can probably add support yourself by applying the oEmbed function to the topic excerpt filter.
add_filter( 'bp_get_the_topic_latest_post_excerpt', 'ray_bp_oembed' );I should let you know that I’m in the process of restructuring the plugin…[Read more] -

I did take a brief look at adding “replied to” support a month ago. Had a bunch of weird permalink hacks, want to revisit and recode a better solution.

r-a-y posted on the forum topic BP Doesnt Show Garvatar or Avatar? in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 15 years, 4 months ago
Are you talking about uploading an avatar to buddypress.org?
If so, that’s a known bug on the site.However, you can set your gravatar at gravatar.com and buddypress.org should pick it up.

Sounds like a problem with your “Suffusion” theme.
Can you switch to the BuddyPress Default theme to see what happens?

Boone’s fix isn’t in 1.3 trunk; bp.org is running a customized build of 1.3 at the moment.
Like JJJ mentioned, stick to 1.2 branch until 1.3 gets some merge love in the coming months.

@johnwinch42 – If you’re just testing BuddyPress locally, I would just login to PHPMyAdmin and clear out your entire activity table so you won’t have to worry about redirections.
Like you mentioned, once you set the BP_ROOT_BLOG from the onset, you won’t have to worry about redirects whatsoever!

@johnwinch42 – Can you try out the fix in this ticket?
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2604I believe this will fix your problem, as your subdirectory install is located one level deeper than expected.

r-a-y posted a new activity comment 15 years, 4 months ago
I recommend to use a trailing slash.
Redirects should work from all blogs since you’re using a subdirectory, although I’m not sure why you would need to redirect all the other blogs except the root one.

Thanks. Works now but only when I refresh the page
Anyway that It can load automatically as it is doing with the default oembed sites such as YouTube and Scribd?
Ahh sorry, I haven’t updated the beta to include that! It’s working on my testbox.
I’m going to be uploading beta-2 in the next day or two, which will include thumbnail support.
Excellent! I’ve been using your beta version and it’s running smooth
Any news on the beta 2 release date?
I need to test it on single WP before beta-2 comes out.
Also got to do some code cleanup!
Thanks for reminding me though!
I’ll be more than happy to help you test it on a single wp environment 🙂
Hey Anton, I’ve had to deal with some non-coding issues the past few days.
I’ve got to get through a pile of todos, then I’m going to come back to oEmbed later in the week.
Thanks @r-a-y
Hey Anton,
Finally looked into this; the Embedly plugin is using wrong code.
Open up embedly.php and replace this:
`
function add_embedly_providers($the_content){
$services = get_embedly_selected_services();
require_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . ‘/class-oembed.php’ );
$oembed = _wp_oembed_get_object();
$oembed->providers = array();
if…[Read more]
Thanks @r-a-y but it doesn’t seem to work. When I replace the function code in embedly.php with yours, I can’t seem to embed anything from the embedly list. It only displays the URL. I’ve tested this with a slideshare presentation.
Hey Anton,
Maybe something got lost in translation!
Can you try the code in the Pastebin file?
http://pastebin.com/jVzpe64x
Replace the add_embedly_providers() function + the add_action line.
Thanks. Works 100% now.
