BuddyPress.org

I’m looking for this functionality as well. @thealchemist it does work. The admin /dashboard settings can be ignored – it adds a menu link (“Example”) to the member’s page where you can send the High Five to another member. I’m not a coder, but I will look into the example and try to adapt it. There […]

@thealchemist

3 come to mind right off the bat:

Comet Chat seems to work out of the box on BP, but it comes with a pricetag: http://www.cometchat.com/buy
Bowob Chat has both free and premium versions, but the free one comes with ads: http://buddypress.bowob.com/
And then there’s Brajesh’s BP-Chat, but it’s still being developed:…[Read more]

@thealchemist

Thanks! It works 🙂

@thealchemist

Thanks! It works now 🙂

@thealchemist does that include a counter with “You’ve been poked 20 times, teased 23 times, kissed 100 times and the like? 🙂

@TheAlchemist if you’re seeing php scripting outputed by the browser then you have possibly left out php tags wrapping the function? depends on how your functions.php is arranged but generally as it tends to contain various disparate functions and snippets of code including markup php tags tend to be opened and closed on a per item […]

@pcwriter @thealchemist woohoo! that worked for my forums too! 🙂 i am one happy camper. now hopefully my forums will stay clean! yay! anyone know the code for profiles? would one just replace “profile” for “group” in the code for forums? thinking that there would be MORE to that, but I’m all ears. 🙂 thank you for […]

Haha @TheAlchemist 😀 What you will probably find easiest is to create a language file, like @hnla suggested. Take a look at https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/, it’s roughly the same idea. It can be a bit fiddly to get working the first time, but once you have, it’s a real easy way to update the…[Read more]

last_activity is updated every 5? minutes by BuddyPress, so that’s no good.

@TheAlchemist It’s a solid idea for an enhancement for the next release. In the interim, and if you know how to code with PHP, take a look at: http://achievementsapp.com/developer/add-support-for-a-plugin-non-custom-post-type/

@thealchemist

I just replied to your query at bp-tricks
Here’s the same answer: bp-custom needs to go in your /plugins/ directory, not /buddypress/
Hope it helps! 🙂

@thealchemist @zkwc @djpaul Hurray! The code snippet works just fine in functions.php. That’s good news for a theme designer: no worries about a theme overriding a user’s custom configurations in bp-custom.php. Now I’m off to add “Group Landing Page” as an option in my new theme. It’ll be incorporated with the theme’s “Alternate Header” option…[Read more]

@thealchemist just this. in your custom css. change the colors the way you want.
div.activity ul.item-list li{ background: #F7F5ED; }
div.activity ul.item-list li:nth-child(odd) { background: #F2EFE5; }

@thealchemist I know that if you copy and paste code from here it sometimes doesn’t post exactly as it should. So if you did that try typing it exactly as shown instead of copy and paste. Not sure if that’s the issue though, but just trying to help. 🙂

@thealchemist @zkwc This is a great find! I asked that very same question not too long ago: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/how-to-make-profile-the-default-tab-without-editing-wp-config/ Even posted an enhancement suggestion in trac where I was led to believe it can’t be done.…[Read more]

@thealchemist, can you give some links to the theme you are using? I would like to test it by myself. Of If you have some spare time and will, send me the details to the install you use so I can test things (I don’t charge, just want to see if I can help). Email to […]

@thealchemist

Did changing your settings work? I have the same problem, and changing the settings so that anyone can register didn’t fix the problem. I still don’t have a way for new users to sign up.

@pcwriter

any advice?

@boonebgorges Great! Thx!

@thealchemist I agree with you.

@thealchemist

Looking at the source of your page, the opening div is nowhere to be seen.
Did you inadvertently delete <div id="sidebar" class="col-right">?

@mercime @thealchemist

🙂
