@ouegy in which file and in which place of that file are we supposed to put this code, the code at the opening post. also the code just above this comment. Thanks for our help.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

@bphelp

Sorry. River = stream. River refers or means Activity stream commenting.
Setup WP 4.1.1 + BP 2.2.1 – multisite, fresh install, nothing else
Setting : Before a comment appears Comment must be manually approved
Comment as an user on another user’s blog
Comment shows “awaiting moderation”
Coment on that blog from BP activity stream
Comment directly shows up in that blog.

@hutchison Sorry, that will not work !

Instead, find the following in wp-login.php (approx line 219)
<p id="backtoblog">
Replace it with
<p id="backtoblog"><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=http://mylifeismymuseum.eu/mlimm/activity/">

Thanks.

@vitamincee

it brought me to my own profile, but displayed the user’s messages.

If you can read an user A’s message from user A’s profile, that may be by design. But if it is from your profile it may be a bug. What are the steps to reproduce and in which version – with these facts you may consider submitting a ticket. Thanks.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

@tstrickland415 if its not there, I would be also interested in such a solution some time in future. Can you please submit this issue here https://github.com/imath/bp-reshare/issues ?

Thanks.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

That statement can be put in the new wp-login.php

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3; URL=http://mylifeismymuseum.eu/mlimm/activity/">
<pre> <!---as much space you want--> Oops! you forgot your username and password. Please login again </pre>

Although this is not elegant or a proper way of doing things.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Imho, it is a debatable issue. Is the software/program designed such as to allow the admin to read PM only if there is a complaint ? Is it explicit in the terms and conditions that admin can read PM in which case some users may not like to register?

An user should have initial ways of blocking another harassing users like ello.co does rather than admin jumping into read PMs. In some countries it may be illegal or serious breach of privacy issues. Then there are much “grey” areas as to what is “drama” or what is a “legit” complaint.

Also see this and this.

@hutchison

The only thing that comes top off my head is having another wp-login.php
Rename the original wp-login.php as wp-login-backup.php using ftp or cpanel.
Upload in its place another wp-login.php with just the following in it
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=http://mylifeismymuseum.eu/mlimm/activity/">

Please note this is not the recommended way, and I am no coder and have no time and energy and sufficient money to mend wp+bp’s many strange things which do not suit us, just some quick fixes which I personally need also, as I have to build and look after a site, its contents and *users* and thus cannot wait for eternity 🙂

Use this at your own risk, if it works at all for you. Thanks for pointing this. Please click my profile and have a look at the unanswered questions, if you have some time please answer. If no time and no answer, no problem at all 🙂

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Thanks @hnla
This is not possible. Its a multisite with multiple users having individual blogs. Some may choose to use manual excerpt, some may choose to use <!-- more -->

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

In plugins\buddypress\bp-activity\bp-activity-template.php

$thisvar =  apply_filters_ref_array( 'bp_get_activity_content_body', array( $activities_template->activity->content, &$activities_template->activity ) );
		 $thisvar  = str_replace("more", "", "$thisvar");
		 return $thisvar;

This vanishes “more” but I am unable to vanish “–” using str_replace

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

@henrywright @danbp I think I already voted for this 🙂

@henrywright if you are accepting plugin *ideas* I will suggest a small thing. But first my apologies for using this thread. Feel free to delete.
Here goes:
Please see https://wordpress.org/plugins/ls-buddypress-activity-plus-tabs-extension/
This does it for the Groups only, can you please use the code to do it for the member profile page, that is, an Images tab on the member profile. Thanks.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Hi danbp

@danbp

Thank you so much, I am not a coder, cannot patch. I do see some progress on that ticket but need to have an idea on exactly what to change in what file to correct this. If possible, please tell me.

Thanks.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

I have deleted this thread and closed that ticket. It seems a theme related issue – some incompatibility of new BP with new BP themes. Thanks for your time.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Yes, I should have done that / should do that :

If you want to apply your own CSS, override the plugin’s styles by adding the following to your theme’s stylesheet. That way you won’t lose anything going forward.

Thanks. Why it has not been added to the BP plugin page? Please add.

PS : Just now saw it has been added. Thanks.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Please also consider posting the problem her https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/theme-my-login

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

The readme says: To remove the border, paste the following into your functions.php file:

add_action( 'wp_print_styles', 'bp_identicons_deregister_style', 100 );

function bp_identicons_deregister_style() {
	wp_deregister_style( 'buddypress-identicons' );
}

This can also be done by just changing the padding value in the css

.avatar {
	box-sizing: border-box;
	padding: 0px;
	background-color: #eee;
}

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Very cool. The readme has an useful FAQ too. Thanks a lot. Recommended!

Please add it to https://buddypress.org/extend/plugins/

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Thanks @hnla

I have not understood your question fully “How were you managing the number of viewed comments?”
Can you please explain a little more kindly?

If I have understood right, I was not managing the number of viewed comments – it was automatically being managed by the BP code. If you have WP 4.1.1 and BP 2.2 please try posting 9 comments (9, for example – it can be 19 also) to an Activity stream activity – you will see 5 comments with “Show all 9” or “Show all 19”

Now try with the WP 4.1.1 and BP 2.2.1 install you have:

In BP 2.2.1 the “Show All” is lost, thus if there are 9 or 19 or 90 comments *all* are displayed at once.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

@mcpeanut Thanks for clue and the link.
But this is not working for me (maybe my fault) with WP 4.1 and BP 2.2.1
Brajesh seems to be less active, and the plugins/tutorials are not update,imho, probably.

Thanks for your help.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Any help, please?
Thanks.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Hi Faldekan!

Is it a must that you should use Frontend User Pro for images?
If you have option to use other stuff for images you can use the following – all of these add an icon to the form atop Activity page to click and upload images

buddypress-media by rtcamp
mediapress by brajesh
buddypics by modemlooper
bp activity plus
You need to see which works for you.
However, none of these use WP core media.

If you can use core media of the WP itself, you can use the p2 theme which also has image upload button attached to the sitewide form. To show image thumbs in Gallery posts in the activity stream your users will have to “insert” at-least one picture apart from the Gallery.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

@henrywright

Interface or UI
very lively, fresh and dedicated. Since this is qualitative, imho, you can test any bp site and ello-co

Discover feature
and from there you can have “Friend” or “Noise” and the very easy switching between the two

Privacy features
Muting prevents further email notifications from a user and removes their past activity from your feed. The user is still able to follow you and can still comment on your posts, but you will not receive any notifications.
Blocking mutes a user, and disables them from viewing your profile and posts.
BP do not have Blocking, and the premium plugin that is there probably no longer works

Excellent Media Support well integrated
In BP, its confusing : WP has its own media repo for the user, again BP plugins store media elsewhere

These are something that come just top off my head. You can see some more here https://ello.co/wtf/post/featurelist Its not to say Ello is better or BP is better : its just sharing something new with you all – Ello is not a script we can use, BP is a script we can use and customize.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Maybe WP installer should check php.ini for memory limit and
refuse to get installed or
get installed with warning.

Thanks to @escapandodelsistema for the information.

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

Thanks @hnla
Yes these are custom elements. The blinking cursor going down in text-area happens due to bp checkins. The problem seems to be each plugin using its own rule/css/whatever when it comes to using this whats-new posting area – apparently codex has no protocol which plugins should adhere to. I am confused as to where to start to make things look less crazier!!

[@rosyteddy Participant 11 years, 3 months ago]

To answer my own question this can be done at the site of site creation. However I do not know how to toggle or change it later – https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-toggle-site-visibilty-in-the-activity-stream/
