BuddyPress.org

The new e-mail system in version 2.5 a step in the right direction, but it doesn’t make things simpeler. For example:

– Registration e-mails are sent via Buddypress
– Password reset e-mails are sent via WordPress
– Changing an e-mail address is sent via Buddypress
– Notifications of reply in topic is sent via bbpress
– Notifications van private messages are sent via Buddypress

It would be great if Buddypress has templates for WordPress en bbpress e-mails too. Or at least for password resets. This makes it less complicated to style e-mails once Buddypress is installed.

Hi,

I was just wandering how the forum permissions worked with regards to inheritance.

I have numerous forums which are set to private, inside them I have sub forums. Do these sub forums inherit their permissions from the parent forum?

I have

Forum Category – Set to private
Sub Forum – set to dafult (public, i think?)
Sub Forum – set to default also

I know some forum software will do this. I just wanted to know if BBpress does this or if i would need to set it on each private forum. Id rather do it now before the forums start to fill up.

Regards,

Phil

Hi all,

I am working in a site with WP4.5.1 + BP 2.5.2 + bbpress 2.5.8

I have been working on a custom group creation process and I got some good stuff I just want to share with the community. I have noticed that the group creation steps are stored within the $bp object and that they can be accessed and reseted. The standard group creation steps are the following (though they may be reordered in your installation or have less or more steps):

1. Group Details 2. Group Settings 3. Forum 4. Group Avatar 5. Group Image Cover 6. Invite friends

In my case, I needed to get rid of some of those steps and, as well, “Group Image Cover” step was prompting me to the “Are you sure you want to do this?” screen (I think it is related to the nonces, but I am not sure about this).

You can list your particular group creation steps by copying this snippet somewhere in your site (they will be listed in a page – I used my /group/create.php template). I took a part of the code from the function “groups_action_sort_creation_steps”, located in /buddypress/bp-groups/bp-groups-actions.php:


<?php global $bp;
foreach ( (array) $bp->groups->group_creation_steps as $slug => $step ) {
while ( !empty( $temp[$step['position']] ) )
$step['position']++;
$temp[$step['position']] = array( 'name' => $step['name'], 'slug' => $slug );
};
print_r(array_values($temp)); ?>


Once you have your steps and you have decided which you want to get rid of, build the array to be passed to the $bp object following this model and the information you found in the previous list:


$temp = array(
"0" => array("name" => "Details","slug" =>"group-details" ),
'1' => array("name" => "Information","slug" =>"plus-tab"),
'2' => array("name" => "Forum","slug" =>"forum" ),
);


And then place this action hook in your bp-custom.php (which is also inspired in the sorting function):


function custom_group_creation_steps() {
global $bp;
unset($bp->groups->group_creation_steps);

As I got rid of the “Image Cover Step”, now my group creation process does not print the annoying “are you sure you want to do this?” screen. But this screen is related to particular setups, so I cannot guarantee you’ll get rid of it with this code.

Happy coding!

I’m usind PmPro, BuddyPress and bbPress on my website.

I would like to create 4 separate, private forums, each one requiring a separate membership level for access. All information pertaining to group members should be absolutely private — not only for non-logged in users but also for users who are not part of the respective group.

I’ve done a lot of research and know how to hide member profiles, activity page, etc from non-logged in users in general.

But how can I achieve the same effect for non-logged in users of specific forums?

I’m so sorry if I’m missing something — I’ve spent days researching this.

Thanks so much,
Kat

Hi!
We’ve found a bug and we’d like to notify you about it.

Hi all,

I am currently developing a site in WP4.5 + BuddyPress2.5.2 + BBPress2.5.8.

I need that upon member promotion to Group Admin, s/he is also promoted to BBPress Keymaster (I know, I know, some will say I should ask in BBpress forums, but what if I wanted to promote to Site Admin, uh? :).

This should be really simple (I think) and this is the code I am using in my bp-custom.php (currently not working):


add_action('groups_promoted_member' , 'bp_custom_update_role',206,3);

}


Any hint? It would be highly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

Hi there! I hope you can help at least point me in the right direction. I assist with operations of a membership-based site that runs BuddyPress. Recently, the email notifications for @ mentions and replies on wall posts have stopped working, potentially after some updates were run (by the site owner). I cycled the “Notifications” setting in the BuddyPress settings to no avail. BuddyBoss theme folks gave us no help. If there is something I am missing somewhere, or a direction to look to troubleshoot, I would be ever so appreciative!!!!! Thank you in advance!!!!!
