thealchemist started the forum topic Suggestion: Achievement Event When a Friendship Request is Accepted in the group Achievements: 14 years, 3 months ago

Oddly enough, unless I am reading the event list for “Members”, there isn’t an achievement for receiving an achievement when a friendship request is accepted. For example, the user sends an invite (that’s an event) and when that invite is accepted that should be an event. My thinking is that receiving and achievement for “friending” […]

thealchemist started the forum topic Event List is Duplicated in the group Achievements: 14 years, 3 months ago

Not that this is too huge of a problem but the event list in adding/editing an achievement has somehow doubled – every item is repeated twice. Might be from turning off the plugin when I enable multisite then turning it back on. Any easy way you can think of to clear this up?

@Paul Gibbs Crazy as I, I see! I do not see an opportunity to “re-run the forum setup in wp-admin” nor a place to “pick existing install.” If I activate bbPress Forums my site crashes and I get this error “Fatal error: Class ‘BB_Query’ not found in /home/lockednd/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums.php on line 354” NEVERMIND!…[Read more]

Ok. Maybe I am working too fast on this site … it’s only a week old … but after I added WP MultiSite on Thursday a few things happened that I am just noticing today. Somethings are just “resets” and me remembering what the settings were. And this may be the case for the forums. […]

@Djsteve Did we jump off the happy truck today? My site is using WP+WPMultiSite+BuddyPress and a dozen or so plugins and, personally, everything seems to be running rather smoothly. Yes, there are a few disconnected pieces here and there – but I have PAID for scripts and plugins that ended up having as many problems if […]

thealchemist posted on the forum topic New Member Activation Email not sent Redux in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 3 months ago

@mercime … Converted my site to MultiSite on Thursday and installed the recommended plugin. No change. My guess is that this plugin work ONLY for multisite blogs that have been created, not overall users. I see this message when I click the link for the plugin “No user activation keys in $wpdb->signups.”

Sooooo … went through the process of making a multisite. Seemed to go smoothly … only the SuperAdmin panel has not made an appearance. If someone here has multisite experience I would love to call you for a consultation. I could give you access but its an adult fetish site that may offend a few […]

@hnla Ahhh yes. Will keep in mind … didn’t realize there was a distinction when on the BP homepage one of the specific features mentioned says “Even allow each of your users to start their own full powered WordPress blog.” It doesn’t say anything about Multi-site, so I thought this was a feature of BP. Maybe […]

Here’s my problem right now. I have WP+BP-based site. I soft-launched to a select 100 or so friends. 75 started the process. Of those, a large-ish number did not get the activation email and did not complete the sign-up process. The ONLY way I know this is from the few that reported they did not […]

@mercime Thank You! I will look into it … right now its WP+BP not multi-site.

thealchemist posted on the forum topic Personalized email to members in the group Requests & Feedback: 14 years, 3 months ago

There are two plugins Sitewide Newsletters and BuddyPress Mass Messaging. They are blanket emails – meaning you can’t edit the send list. But, would be nice to add a function to either one of these integrated into the “User” list, sort the user list by type of user and use this as the broadcast list. […]

thealchemist posted on the forum topic Is Andy Peatling still fit to lead the BuddyPress project? –Time to re-define the "core development in the group Miscellaneous: 14 years, 3 months ago

I discovered BuddyPress less than a week ago and have built TWO websites for it with one already live and nearly 75 members – I admit a bit of overenthusiastic tweaking of it – so I have little knowledge of what’s come before. I do know, as an enthusiastic WordPress user, installer and manipulator that […]

thealchemist started the forum topic Sitewide Email Broadcasts – Internally? in the group Creating & Extending: 14 years, 3 months ago

There are two really great plugins to send emails to members … but it sends the email to their personal emails. Then, I can send a “notice” which appears in the sidebar until they close it.

But what about sending emails into the internal message boxes?

this is only if a User/Member knows to go to site.com/wp-admin or site.com/wp-login We need a simple button in admin under Users to “resend activation.”

I have a similar issue. I know activation emails are being sent. However, some of these emails get sent ot junk and the member doesn’t know to check. When I go to the “Users” section in the admin I see nothing that indicates non-replies as spam and certain no way to “activate” a member. Is […]
