What @bphelp said. Somehow I had missed the messages after the first two.

Member search is something BuddyPress is not very good at though. Plugins such as BP Profile Search offer a partial solution. So if you feel search function is too limited, do feel free to contribute code to make BuddyPress better. Any help is always welcome.

The in #4539 related Mediapress is a great feature (still in beta, but promise full).

I installed it yesterday for intense test. 😉

Do share the results of your tests.

It’s that time again isn’t it @sooskriszta for your wish list

Exactement, Hastings.

hnla:

I would leave out the @mentions on individuals they can be irritating.

Agree 100%. Honest mistake. Didn’t intend to @mention. Just force of habit.

As you have created tickets for all your wish list items I’m sure they’ll receive conside…

People may disagree, but I feel that with 2.0 and 2.1, BuddyPress has finally started coming into its own. A few of the features added/improved in these versions are:

Completely reworked and totally cool @mentions
New profile field types: URL, Number
Automatically downloaded…[Read more]

Now, while I want the BuddyPress/community portion to be public, I don’t want every WordPress-registered user to automatically also have a BuddyPress profile page.

Is it possible?

@ciromanigrasso
Please visit and chime in at
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4132 and https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5583

if this part of the core functionality (and the chat as well), then so much the better.

I agree. And if you do feel that way, you should go say so at the Trac ticket https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4126

2. Profile header to show more info of use at a glance (much like what is shown on buddypress homepage that showcases James Jacoby’s profile header)

Check out and chime in: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4126

I tried the code. But for some reason it seems that instead of being executed, the code appears as text on the site 🙁

If you check individual groups’ member pages, you will see members http://csillamvilag.com/modellek/hely/magyarorszag/budapest/

Seems weird.

The links go to a search results page, e.g. http://csillamvilag.com/modellek/modell/?s=Felnőtt+modell
If this is intended, then it seems to be buggy as ZERO results are shown.

Will try and report back.

Ideas?

The twin tickets: Make registration easier, and upload avatars on activation.
Use taxonomies instead of/in addition to BP Xprofile tables.
Better date xprofile field.
Dynamic component names.
Allow admin to select fields to display in user “excerps” on Groups’ user list page.

Wow… that’s a lot of work (changing every mention of the word “group” in the po file one by one)! Even with that poedit program, it was a tedious and time consuming task because there was no “find and replace” functionality and with a text editor (I use TextPad), you have to be sure not to rename any file names. There needs to be s a simpler way.

Shall we start a pool? I would be happy to pay a small fee to help the developer get started on this.

BuddyPress 2.0 Beta 1 is out.

As the core team quashes bugs, and hopes for a breather to revel in the glory, here’s the last call for 2.1 features scope. What are your top 5 feature requests for 2.0?
(if there are Trac tickets, feel free to post links, but please ensure they are for features not…[Read more]

@henrywright i agree with you on that definitely, but adding some functionality that some plugins offer as built into buddypress would also help because your adding less weight from these plugins too no?

@mcpeanut I am probably the person that asks most often for stuff to be included in the core. However I beg to differ with you on this as a…[Read more]

@buddyboss no inevitability there. Check out many responsive table solutions http://css-tricks.com/responsive-data-table-roundup/

@mercime C’mon! Even Chris Coyier (the first ever to try making a table responsive and author of the article you have linked) himself admits that there is no good solution to make tables responsive. The article…[Read more]

admin editable fields for groups. Basically the exact same thing as xprofile fields but for groups. This is the kind of thing that makes more sense in core than a plugin.

I second that.

Better customisation options of the activity stream: ie to be able to define a set of “or” filters for content type, and who. So (with plugin support) I can define a feed to include things from “me or friends or followers” showing “topics and topic replies and posts and new users” (and ideally be able to have a permalink to this with no other fl…

Most folks wont be able to navigate as only 2 links that show up are respectively for the first and last pages 🙂

(pagination appears ok on even numbered pages)

a fragment caching system

I totally agree with you, and would love to see fragment caching in BuddyPress (or more generally in WordPress)

That being said, if WordPress doesn’t include caching in core, it’s highly unlikely that BuddyPress would. If you created a ticket for this in Trac, it would probably quickly be closed as plugin…[Read more]

API so we could build mobile apps

Just “API” is a bit vague. Do you, perhaps, want to create a ticket, with exactly what you are after, at http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ ?

I assume you are aware of the existing API http://codex.buddypress.org/developer/action-reference/

It would be nice for an admin to be able to define additional types of friendships either independently, or by associating a scale (an integer valued friendship, 1=I want to see your feed stuff 2=online mates 3=actual real life chums 4=we’re married)

If I remember correctly friends were changed to a type of groups earlier this year. The kind of f…[Read more]
