V1.3 works just fine… thanks!

Another suggestion: allow site admins to define a default width and height, and allow users to adjust if needed.

As it is now, badge dimensions are defined by those of the uploaded logo (width if vertical layout, height if horizontal layout).

Oh, and please do allow site admins/users to show or hide the field labels. As Greg says, they aren’t really needed.

@ Smuda

Well ok, but I stand by my point I don’t think you should block all traffic towards wp-admin. Just hide it.

@ etiviti (rich!)

Isn’t it smarter to use current_user_can(‘edit_posts’)? That way anything higher than a subscriber can access the wp-admin.

is_user_logged_in() is present in both WP and WPMU. Odd. What versions of WordPress/WordPress MU are you using?

Try putting something like this in /plugins/bp-custom.php:

<?php

if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {

$user_roles = wp_get_current_user();

$user_roles = $user_roles->roles;



if ( empty( $user_roles ) || in_array( 'subscriber', $user_roles ) )

define( 'BP_DISABLE_ADMIN_BAR', true );

}

?>

What JJJ said about it technicaly. What Andrea_r said about Facebook. I’ll add what I think as an admin.

BP is a stream for me as a user and not a techie. I need to be able to tweak everything that shows up in the stream in a way so that the community can expand. We’ve got 250 users now at a closed community with about 20% really active users. I’d like to grow up to at least 1000 users but I’m afraid of what will become of the Stream. I’ve got 300 very active friends over at Facebook and it makes me want to hide away from it. I mostly never go there since it’s too much to follow.

Also apart from the Stream there needs to be containers for all things for part time users. They should be able to follow the community even if they don’t take a peek every day.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wpmu-new-blog-defaults/ helps you tweak what’s available to sub-blog admins in admin menu

For instance Blog Tracking is not happening at all across the site – when every setting suggest this should be happenning automatically. It simply isn’t!

Are the blogs, that aren’t appearing, marked as “private” in their admin? i.e. the “Hide from search engines option”.

I really like to follow your development and i raelly appriciate how transparent you’re keeping the developmet and how much your are listining to the demands of us users.

Keep it up this way!

I wrote a short user story:

1) An administrator: I would like to see all albums even if they set to private or not. I would like to hide pictures with inappropriate content. They shouldn’t be visible for site members anymore, but the owner should see them darkened out with a message overlaying the picture “This picture was removed due to inappropriate content” – something like this.

2) An anonymous user off the Internet: Should only be able to see the “public” pictures.

3) A logged-in member viewing their own profile: Should have an Main Menu Item “Albums” or even better “Photos” that shows all of his pictures and all pictures of his friends (newest Uploads on top – so they can easily discover whats new). There should be an “Upload Photos” button on this page (After clicking you will be ask if you would like to upload a single picture or if you would like to create an album). The Page should also hold a subnav with some Options as “Photos of my friends – Photos i’m tagged on – My uploaded Photos – Upload Photos”

4) A logged-in member viewing a friend’s profile: Should have an Main Menu Item “Albums/Photos” with all of the photos uploaded by “John Doe” and a subnav with “Photos John Doe is tagged on”.

5) A logged-in member viewing a stranger’s profile: Should have an Main Menu Item “Albums/Photos” with all public pictures the “stranger” uploaded.

I was also thinking of pictures uploaded to groups. I guess it should be enough if there would be an “Album/Photos” Menu Item in the mainnav of the group. This page should hold all group pictures and an “Upload Photos” button.

That should be enough for the beginning.

Cool plugin. Some ideas:

– A setting to prevent the shoutbox opening in the admin backend would be great

– The “V^x” symbols in the top right of the shoutbox are not very sexy

– A setting to switch off the full page mode (hide “Chat” in the buddybar, hide “Go to full chat” in shoutbox)

You can hide the entire Plugins menu under the Site Admin -> Options page. there’s a checkbox. you, the site admin, can still see it though.

Or, just keep the wp-adminbar and add this to your style.css to hide the login link

ul.main-nav li.bp-login { display: none; }

Or, go to Dashboard, BuddyPress > General Settings and check Yes for “Hide admin bar for logged out users?“

Also looking for a way to hide the admins. Anyony have a clue?

Will this hide the groups tab from all but admins and editors, and get rid of the text in forums that says you must join a group? So that member sees only forums, and in forums a list of “groups” or “themes” or whatever, that have been created by admin/editor? Actually, what would be more than wonderful would be a version of BP without groups altogether, with a panel allowing admin to create themes. Thanks, Roger
