Tried this, with no luck:

'blog_comment', 'author_id' => $comment->user_id,'id' => $wpdb->blogid,'id2' => $comment->comment_ID,'unflagged_text' => __('Flag this comment as inappropriate','bp-moderation'))); ?>

@francescolaffi – that last is exactly what I would like to do, for the main blog — place the flag in the comment metadata div, rather than attached to the actual blog comment content, basically for layout purposes. Could you offer a little help on how to use bpModFrontend::get_link() to generate the link? I understand where […]

Thinking in architectural terms, this makes a lot of sense — certainly more sense than Franken-bbPress does. If BP were to get a richly-featured, native, extensible replacement for ‘forum’-structured discussion, that would be a good thing. These days, more than in the past, I worry about the right user-interaction design decisions being made,…[Read more]

Reupload them and do not delete them in future.

Yup. This is precisely the point I’ve made about buddypress.org (a point that will apply to many of our own sites as well) many many times before, and is at the heart of my reluctant but growing disenchantment. Agree, 100 percent.

We used to be able to Favorite forum threads here. It was one of many important pieces of functionality we’ve lost. Your favorites from the old site still exist, though, at https://buddypress.org/forums/profile//favorites . I haven’t a shred of a clue why @apeatling decided to omit that functionality in the new design. I’ve ported BP-Like to work […]

bbPress as a component of BP is weaksauce, I would agree. But it is a non-trivial project to write a fully-featured forums app/component. I would support native forums functionality in BP, definitely, especially if it let us do more with it, but I suspect given the lack of focus on that functionality here and in […]

I think we agree, then, for the first time ever: that Andy &co should be focussing on fixing problems (usability and otherwise) and the dev community can extend core where they like.

Heh. I’m not disagreeing with you in principle, but taken in the context of Buddypress itself, that’s pretty ironic, with forum comments (and everything else) showing up in Activity streams as well as where they were originally posted. 😉 (and in this specific case, it shows up inline, thread-indented on the Activity item and indentically […]

Good on you, foxly. There are a lot of significant problems with BP (made more apparent by the new design we’re using here on buddypress.org, which will, hopefully, mean that they are addressed more quickly), and it’s great to see someone from the dev community step up with substantive proposals to address one of the […]

My suggestion (just because that’s the ramshackle way I go about stuff) would be to grab a free BP theme that you like (or just a copy of the bp-default theme), set it up as a child theme, grab a plugin or two that you like, and start messing around with the templates and the […]

It’s been working flawlessly for me.

and throws in a different workflow for people to get used too

Don’t see how — it consolidates rather than adds, the way I’ve got it set up. *shrug*

Example: http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=%2B”is+proudly+powered+by+WordPress+and+BuddyPress”; (front page of every BP site on the net) Example: http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=inurl:%22/community/members/%22+%2Bbuddypress (members page of every BP site on the net) Very much behind this, but I will mention that changing those two thi…[Read more]

For stuff like this, the fastest and easiest thing to do is just look at the template files you’ll be modifying for your child theme, the stuff in bp-themes/bp-default to see how it’s done. Have a look at /bp-themes/bp-default/members/index.php for example.

You probably want bp_get_loggedin_user_fullname(). See here, too:…[Read more]

Could it be that you’re not uploading the files as ASCII where appropriate? (also, please try to name your threads informatively, so those of us who are willing to help can guess whether or not we might be able to… 🙂 )

Yeah, this is an annoyance, and a WordPress thing as opposed to something that can be changed in BP. Users can, of course, case their display names however they like, but the actual login must be lowercase with no non-alpha characters. And Buddypress will only send @notifications to the login name, as opposed to the […]

Rich means that you’ll have to manually go into your MySQL database (with PHPMyAdmin or another GUI tool) and edit data directly until the bug gets fixed, which is not for the fainthearted if you haven’t done it before. Make sure you back up your db first before messing around.
