In reply to: Is it possible to do it in WP + BP?
1) Even some BuddyPress themes can do that – so, yes.
2) 2 plugins (one & two) for BuddyPress exists for this. Yes.
3) Achievements plugin by Paul Gibbs (BP core developer) and Cube Points. Yes.
4) Lots of WordPress-based solutions – nothing to do here for BP. Yes.
5) Via a plugin like BuddyPress Block Activity Stream Types or via easy to write code hacks in your template.WP+BP might be your option if you can afford a good hosting.
In reply to: Question: WordPress User Roles and BuddyPressEach user in the network can have different roles on different sites.
That mean on site1 he is editor, on site2 he is subscriber and so on. These roles are only taken into account in WordPress Toolbar – when visiting different sites with the (dis)ability to post on them.BuddyPress itself currently ignores those roles.
`/buddypress/bp-messages/bp-messages-screens.php:76`
As you can see there – no way. Try to hook into `bp_core_redirect()` OR write your own handler foe sending messages, with use of `messages_new_message()`
In reply to: New users but not one confirms emailsI think those users are spam. What usernames do they have?
In reply to: YouTube videos not embeddingI can’t replicate – works everywhere.
Try to embed using ``About spam registrations – I have already answered here: https://buddypress.org/support/topic/thousands-of-spam-subscribers/#post-151777
In reply to: Thousands of spam subscribersI use this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stop-spammer-registrations-plugin/
And this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-registration-options/
The first one catches spam. The second – those that the 1st one overlooked.
From that time – no spam at all.Take care of quotes, they were converted in a wrong way in the snippet above.
Open members/members-loop.php file in your theme.
Copy its code and paste into your page template file.
Find this string in that code:
`bp_has_members( bp_ajax_querystring( ‘members’ )`
Change it to smth like this:
`bp_has_members(array(‘search_terms’ => ‘virginia beach’))`PS Open `/buddypress/bp-members/bp-members-template.php` file, line 264, to see all possible values that you can pass to a function.
In reply to: No data found in displayed_user objectDisplayed user data is accessble only on profiles pages (like `example.com/members/slaffik`). On others it will be empty. Actualy it’s bad that it has empty keys data in it on other pages… But that’s the question to the BP core developers.
Try the function `bp_displayed_user_id()`.
In reply to: Explain Groups Without ForumsYou can also look at groups like events (in some cases). So all joined members are attendees. Although there are several events-based plugins for BuddyPress…
In reply to: How to remove auto generated links in user profile?Will add one from BuddyPress Codex:
In reply to: Site Wide Forums AvatarsPerhaps the image is too small and it just scales… Try to upload the big image (in px) and crop it.
In reply to: Make Users Mods of the Activity StreamCurrently – no such plugin and no built-in functionality.
But a good idea for a plugin 🙂
I could replicate that issue in case WP_DEBUG is set to true. Did some fixes for Custom Community theme. Soon will be deployed.
In reply to: Check if BP is installedUse functions.php for this – not header.php.
Functions.php is loaded earlier than other theme files – but after plugins (like BP).In reply to: Show avatar on buddypress large by clicking on itSo if I clicked on an avatar in this thread – I would see no 40×40 px but (in a popup) 150×150 px (or other, configurable).
Am I right? If yes, I might add this to my BP Avatar Bubble (https://buddypress.org/community/groups/cd-bp-avatar-bubble/).In reply to: Can two sites share buddypress members?Yes, this can be done.
The easiest way is to create a “bridge” between them.
So in general:
1) sync all users data between sites (wp_(users|usermeta|bp_xprofile_*).
2) create a script on site 1, that after user registering/updating profile data will make a post|get request with encrypted data to site 2
3) site 2 will get this data, check it and saves.
The same script should be placed on site 2 as well. Of course, you will need some kind of securing of all data transfers, also lots of BP hooks will be used.Once I even implemented such solution. Site1 was on PHP (WP+BP), while Site2 – on ASP. That was interesting project

Thanks for letting us know.
UPD: BTW, WP3.3 is already available for autoupdating from admin area.In reply to: adding group fields@4ella is right. After BuddyPress 1.3 will be released, I will update my BP Groups Extras.
In reply to: A quick note about WordPress 3.2WordPress 3.2 is out. So we are waiting for BP 1.2.9
In reply to: BP Group Tasks Management System – demoToday a new really great feature will be added!
In reply to: BP Group Tasks Management System – demo@mercime, I don’t know exactly when it will be ready for release – there are to many ideas I want to implement. First of all: profile pages, projects directory, rich editor and more complicated projects pages. Then – global statistic, better overall management, task/project discussion feature…
The problem is that I’m coding in my free time (that’s only 3 hours per day max)…In reply to: BP Group Tasks Management System – demo@mercime I’ve activated you manually.
