Thanks for the post/link….I am researching it more…seems nice but how do I go to ghostpool.com site to reaseach more for functionality/showcase/pricing etc?
If I am correct, the pricing for multiple domain use at themeforest is $3000 (extended license). Can you buy directly from ghostpool.com?
Q: Does anyone know which is the “best” WP/BP based clone site with functionality from: Both the the pinterest and instagram?
I found a site/script called pinstagram but it doesn’t seem to be an actual theme.
Yes, I am still looking….haven’t found the one really screams “crowd sourcing”.
I came across some themeforest themes but their pricing/license is very difficult to understand.
I just want a theme that enables visitors/users contributing news/opinion/media/content etc.
I am really excited about the new version of BP coming soon.
Perhaps, I should just go with a simple theme recommended here….never thought selecting theme will be that difficult:)
Note: I am researching more because I want these to be used for news posting and sharing by users. So really need to make sure that users are able to easily do it.
Thanks for your comment.
I never said I want BP to be a facebook clone.
I love BP.
I strongly feel that BP lacks depth in this functionality.
It is not useful at all. Facebook does it right.
A social network software should be able to do it right.
That’s the only reason I mentioned facebook.
I hope you give this issue another consideration and help make BP more useful.
It appears GPU (Grid Processing Unit) is something that only mediatemple uses and even after reading everything about it, I am not sure how much traffic can it withstand. I also discovered they charge $20 per backup snapshot which I believe is a lot.
I will keep looking for another day or two and I will fill out the quote at webhosting talk and will go from there.
Ok, I have created extended profiles for users under the wp admin: Users > Profile fields
There is one thing that I can not do with the options provied in buddypress.
I want to create a section under the profiles similar to the “Family” section in facebook:
1. Relationship Status: should open up the options where people can select one from drop down and then other fields pop up where people can enter the name of the person they are in relationship with.
2. Family section: where people can add a name of a family member, select the relationship and then keep adding more family members by repeating this process.
Hopefully the devs can comment on this thread because almost 70 % of the new members never activate their account from the email they get…so definitely vast majority of these 70% are spammers.
Q: How can I display a message like this “You will get a link in email to activate your account after registration” on the account creation page?
When I selected the option “User accounts may be registered”, the ‘select your new site checkbox’ immediately disappeared from the new member account creation page. No css changed were required.
Our site is still BP/Multisite and we can allow the blogs any time later if we want. I want to keep the ability to turn the blogs on so I plan to keep the entire BP/Multisite setup.
Q: Can I manually add blog sites for the members who request a blog site on a later time (let’s say two month after creating their account)? Basically wondering if I can do it on a case by case basis from the WP-Admin for the existing members whenever they want a blog site?
Thank you for your help.
insertyourdomainhere.com/members shows members list but some from today are not in the list…perhaps they still need to activate their accounts from the registration email link. But I do see them in the WP-admin.
insertyourdomainhere.com/sites doesn’t show the site list as of yet with today’s new sites, even though I can see the sites for today’s registered members in the WP-admin area. May be insertyourdomainhere.com/sites will show the list for all the members who registered today after they activate their registration?
