@crashutah TBH, I really need the @jeffsayre privacy plugin & still have no idea if it even requires custom template files if used on a non default theme…
I expect it to be a top class plugin as its coded by a top class coder & want to support it as much as possible but it’s pretty difficult when you are refused access.
If it requires custom templates, I’d like to be ready & provide those theme files in any themes I make ‘BuddyPress’ ready.
Other than that, I have a large test base & would love to have been involved in the testing process without having to pay for being a guinea pig but by paying back with user feedback.
@revolutionfrance @hnla is correct, I was talking about using a custom theme that doesn’t rely on the BP default theme.
If you are using a child theme of the BP default theme, you wouldn’t need to copy the new functions over.
RE: @crashutah – Have you tried to make a contribution to: @jeffsayre It’s amazing what $$ can do to influence people.
In all fairness, I haven’t, but have offered to test & report feedback many times.
now, if only @jeffsayre would give me access to an early release of his Privacy plugin, I’d be a happy man… users crying out for it & a large test bed…
I’m using latest branch which will be 1.2.6 on a pretty busy site at the moment (http://xfactor-updates.com/members/) and it’s extremely stable so far.
One thing I would say is that if you are upgrading & using a custom theme, you will have to make some updates to your functions.php.
Code to display join/leave group buttons and so on, secondary activity stream avatars as well as localisation for a few JS terms will need to be added.
All required code can be found in the latest bp-themes/bp-default/functions.php
@boonebgorges can you think of any reason your function for removing nav items wouldn’t work?
I’m using latest 1.2 branch & can’t remove any nav items.
@antonrsa it’s the div id=”content” that has the ajax working, i’d start by renaming that class in your followers template just to see if the page links work.
if so, you might have to add some styling for your new div.
Hi @xberserker,
you have it included in bp-cubepoint-core.php
load_textdomain( ‘bp-cubepoint’, dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/languages/bp-cubepoint-‘ . get_locale() . ‘.mo’ );
so just drop translations in the plugins languages folder.
nice plugin, only issue I see is that it tweets the URL of the page you are on rather than the item.
i.e. If you are on the activity stream, tweeting any update tweets the activity stream url rather than the url of the update.
@nuprn1, i’m using your filters above but noticed when mixing php & css in the same forum post, the css code messed up.
changing
add_filter( ‘bp_get_the_topic_post_content’, array(&$this, ‘parse_shortcodes’), 7 );
to
add_filter( ‘bp_get_the_topic_post_content’, array(&$this, ‘parse_shortcodes_comment’), 7 );
fixed the issue.
Other than that, did you ever figure how to get it working on the activity stream?
The only issues you should have with a WP theme is all the BuddyPress CSS, easy enough to fix but can require lots of edits depending on the theme.
To include the required BuddyPress JS & ajax functions in any WP theme, all you need to do is add something like the following to your themes functions.php file
require_once( BP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/ajax.php' );
function theme_loaded_init() {
wp_enqueue_script( 'bp-js', BP_PLUGIN_URL . '/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/global.js', array( 'jquery' ) );
}
add_action('wp_head', 'theme_loaded_init', 5);
You would also need to add the BuddyPress template folders to your theme & add either the default buddypress & admin bar css to your css with edits or include the defaults in the above theme_loaded_init function.
also note, some themes that include custom JS can conflict with BuddyPress JS, if the theme is coded properly it should be easy to remove those conflicts on BuddyPress pages.
@alanchrishughes, @djpaul is dead right, it should have been a child theme. I started looking at it before WP 3 was out & figured most wouldn’t have Twenty Ten installed so started it as a stand alone theme. It only took 10 mins to turn it into a child theme, should have done it sooner….
All others will be done as child themes where possible.
