It’s not using BP-Links and not using BP.

It is using WP though with the WP-PostRatings, Image Rotator, Audio Player and WP-Polls plugins.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Try using the default BP theme first to see if BP is working.

If the default theme works, then you can start work on a custom theme. Preferably a child theme of the default.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Go to BuddyDev.com and download Brajesh’s BP-Wire port.

It won’t do exactly what you want and it requires the “wire” directory from the old BP 1.1.3 default theme in your theme directory, but give that a shot.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Delete /wp-content/themes/bp-default.

This folder shouldn’t be in themes.

You should be using the bundled theme in /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Rename “sidebar” to something else.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

@Tosh

You should point out that you’re using an external plugin for user points called CubePoints.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Sounds like a bug.

Can you post a new ticket on Trac?

https://trac.buddypress.org/newticket

Login with the same credentials you use here on bp.org.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Closing this thread because it’s a request for a freelancer. They can contact you by PM and you can negotiate a price.

Otherwise, until the BuddyPress.org site is updated, you can post job requests on:

http://testbp.org/groups/buddypress-job-board/

@sabater_wb – you might want to follow Bowe’s advice and contact MrMaz, the developer of BP-Links, he could probably adapt the plugin to your needs.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Rename /wp-content/plugins/buddypress-ajax-chat/ to /wp-content/plugins/buddypress-ajax-chat-blah/

Refresh page, then go to /wp-admin/.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

You write too much

Still not sure quite what you want to do.

First of all, you need to install BuddyPress. On first glance at your site, it doesn’t look like you’ve installed it at all.

Second of all, since you’re using a different theme, once you’ve installed BP, you’ll need to use the BP Template Pack plugin so your theme can support BP:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-template-pack/

Once you’ve done these steps, then we can proceed.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

get_blog_option only exists in WPMU.

@vinbytes

Try renaming the plugin directory to something else, then head back to /wp-admin/.

You can also head on over to Dave’s support group for his plugin:

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

From the Links directory.

eg. example.com/links/

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

To customize the tab names, read this:

To change the slug of groups to something else, read this:

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

It’s hard to debug from a screenshot, Erich.

Can you pass on a URL?

If not, send it via PM and I’ll check it out.

Like I mentioned in the ticket, it’s a theme issue. I’m 100% sure the issue doesn’t exist if you’re using the default theme.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Child theme! Child theme! Child theme!

Copy over /bp-themes/bp-default/header.php to your child theme and modify the nav tabs to open in a new window.

What’s a child theme you may ask?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

I haven’t tried my mod site-wide on WPMU because it was only needed on the BP community-side for a site I was working on. If you’re not using WPMU, you should be okay.

Don’t activate the plugin site-wide if you want your user blogs made public. In this case, only activate the plugin on the blog where BP is activated.

Re: invites. What are you using for that? The modified plugin doesn’t block the register or activation pages, so if your invites plugin hooks into the register page, you should be fine.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

@hachimaki

Instead of modifying all the BP templates, you could try the Registered Users Only 2 plugin:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/registered-users-only-2/

I’ve made a few mods to that plugin to better support BP here:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/bp12-plugin-wishlists#post-42114

@nipponmonkey

Use what I suggested above.

Then turn off registration and manually create users. Assign these users a role of contributor or higher.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Try this:

.activity-list li.mini {margin-left:-2em;}

Adjust the margin-left to your needs.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

The easiest way off the top is to apply a filter to ‘bp_core_get_root_domain’ to remove the /folder/ subdirectory; this wouldn’t fix your existing activity stream items as they’re already cached in the db.

There’s probably another way though.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

I kind of figured that, but it sounds like you’ve got a handle on it!

I guess my next question is would it be possible to add a subnav item to “My Favorites” for bbPress topics? This is just to avoid another nav item.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

It’s not compatible with 1.1 either.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

Re: bbPress favorites. Sounds cool!

Would this hook into the existing BP “Favorites” system?

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

@gregfielding

The answer to your Q is yes – you can use a child theme for topic.php.

[@r-a-y Keymaster 16 years, 7 months ago]

@gregfielding

David’s own site – getpaidfrom.us – uses it.
