In reply to: Main forum posting potential problem
Good point, Modemlooper!
Post it in Trac as an enhancement – https://trac.buddypress.org/newticket
In reply to: White Screen! Ugh…It’s basically anything with the wp_ or bp_ prefix.
Also when upgrading, follow the instructions:

In reply to: Publishing documets to a groupThe hierarchy, for me anyway, is to see things from an administrative standpoint.
It’s easy to see who uploaded what.
Oh! And maybe you can substitute “group name” for group id:
eg. “Test Group” has a group id of 1 and “admin” (user id #1) uploaded a file called readme.txt:
/upload-folder/1/1/readme.txtIn reply to: My posts do not show in the form about chat optionsAkismet doesn’t like you!
A forum moderator will have to look into it.
In reply to: Nothing appearing under “My Blogs”Glad everything worked out for you, David!
In reply to: Characters in usernames cause strange issuesBP inherits the registration system from WordPress, so therefore you’d need to override WP’s username functionality.
The second one – delete the old themes from /wp-content/themes/
In reply to: Facebook-Like-Chat Plugin for Buddypress?That’s right, Mike.
David Aubin’s port of BlueImp’s AJAX Chat to BP has group functionality:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-ajax-chat/
The original chat interface isn’t polished enough though and the actual port by Dave has its bugs.
I currently have a v1.2 “re-port” of BlueImp’s AJAX Chat working on my test server. It functions well, but outputs quite a few warnings and notices in the server log! If I can get it to a stable state without the warnings, I might release it.

If there’s a better, open-source chat plugin that supports multiple rooms, that would be another option!
In reply to: FAQ: How To, Code Snippets and SolutionsBP 1.2 Default Theme – Set the Activity Stream as front page, blog posts on another page:
1) Login to the WP backend, navigate to “Pages > Add New”. Create an empty, new page called “News” or “Blog” or whatever you want. This page will contain the blog updates.
2) Under “Settings > Reading”, set front page to “Activity Stream” and your posts page to the new page that you just created.

I’m going to add this to the FAQ thread, since a lot of people have been asking the same question!
In reply to: Nothing appearing under “My Blogs”David, are you running a custom BuddyBar?
If so, I’d recommend commenting out your custom functions for the BuddyBar to see what happens.
In reply to: BuddyPress Links 0.3-beta released for testingI think MrMaz previously stated he was working on a bookmarklet for BP Links, but that was during the BP 1.1 days.
Not sure where the status of this is currently.
I’m going to play around with BP Links when the stable version is released!
In reply to: Making activity default pageIn reply to: White Screen! Ugh…Did you backup before upgrading?
If so, revert your DB and filesystem to your backup.
If you didn’t…
In reply to: how to query the categories of posts?Read up on in_category():
In reply to: 1.2 plug-ins listThe WordPress plugins repository is primarily for WordPress plugins!
Maybe Andy can code something to check a plugin’s meta for some new parameters on buddypress.org/extend/plugins?
FYI, my oEmbed plugin for BP 1.2 is coming either today or tomorrow
In reply to: Publishing documets to a groupI’d like to see uploads segregated by group and also user id.
eg. /upload-folder/GROUPNAME/USERID/_FILES_HERE
In reply to: White Screen! Ugh…You need to upgrade to WPMU 2.9.1.1 to use BP 1.2.
Also since you were using 1.0.3, I would have recommended upgrading to 1.1.3 first before upgrading to 1.2.
One other thing, you might also need the BP Backwards Compatibility plugin:

In reply to: Facebook-Like-Chat Plugin for Buddypress?Arrowchat looks cool. Their screenshots advertise WordPress integration, so a BP integration should be quite simple.
Rather than having a fancy AJAX footer chat, I would much prefer a chat app that has some form of permissible group functionality.
In reply to: Edit Topic brings half empty pageUpgrade to 1.2 final. This problem is now fixed!
In reply to: Facebook-Like-Chat Plugin for Buddypress?You can easily modify the plugin to accept BP display names.
The gamebreaker is the data resides on their servers and there’s no mention of what happens with that data. The website is a little sparse for info regarding that.
In reply to: Locked Out -Redirecting to front-end on admin login!Hey weschyrchel,
What happens when you login at /wp-admin/?
I closed your ticket on Trac because I didn’t think it was a defect.
I never use /wp-login.php FYI.
I’d be interested in the plugin, Dwenaus.
In reply to: Is this site running a seperate bbPress instal?This site is running an external bbPress install, not the bundled one with BP.
In reply to: links in activity = followThis is fixed in trunk:
