@djpaul – a more informative title on your post might help, rather than the general “theme designers: contribute to core”

added to trac #2709

@boonebgorges – given the bug fix / re-engineering is scheduled for 1.3, I’m guessing the best short term workaround is to hard code our own bespoke user nav

@oneearth – you asked if there was anyway to turn them all off: “Also – is there some way to simply turn off the auto linking within the extended profile fields? “

you can turn them off en masse by removing the appropriate filter – I can’t remember which off the top of my head.

@leoplaw – if you check the simple:press forums further, you’ll find there are still outstanding issues in integrating with BuddyPress, around login and roles I think. My understanding is that they are talking about providing a solution in a future version of simple:press

@mercime provides some feedback on this on this thread: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/can-buddypress-function-like-ning-com/

I don’t know what the future plans for BuddyPress are in this regard

BuddyPress only has very limited forum support. A bbpress plugin beta was scheduled for Sept 15 but has not materialised yet.

@hnla – Might work well on the home page – you log in, and the sidebar immediately shows you a set of posts that are targeted to your interests. Personalised content if you like. It’s a useful snippet of code to bring posts relevant to some metadata (in this case an interests list). You could see […]

@rossagrant – cartoons were in house by the client.

@anindyaray – to write your own theme for BuddyPress, you will need to have a basic knowledge of PHP. The PHP ‘if’ statement is fairly fundamental. Checking the tutorial on the PHP site would be a good start: http://www.php.net/manual/en/index.php – then your questions on here can be BuddyPress specific, rather than PHP, allowing this forum to […]

Just when you are logged out

merci @Chouf1 – oui, notre client a des problèmes avec le RSS feed

stats plugins can also be a big problem

@chestnut_jp – no, we’ve decided to keep our existing installs on 1.2.5., so haven’t encountered the problems. We’ll use 1.2.6 for new sites.

@chestnut_jp – there is a new update in the thread https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/1-2-6-upgrade-xprofile_get_field_data-with-checkboxes-no-longer-working-correctly/ that may provide a solution for you (if it’s being caused by the same problem).

@boonebgorges has said he will investigate a core…[Read more]
