How can I set a default sidebar for Buddypress?

I am running a BuddyPress site Version 1.9.2 with several plugins running.

Two of the plugins show user information that does not show in the BuddyPress Profile Page.

For example User Profiles Made Easy Version 2.0.10 shows on its version of the profile page. The number of blog posts and the number of comments a member has contributed.

SabaiDirectory Version 1.2.29 – Is also linked to the profile information but I can’t get BuddyPress to show reviews or listing information on the BuddyPress profile page.

How can I go about calling this information into the Buddypress profile page. Is it a complex job? Do I need to find some one to help?

My thoughts are that the information is saved within the profile information of the user. There for it is within a Database. The question is how do I call that information and display it with the Profile Page of BuddyPress?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi,

I’m working on a buddypress site for a friend. In the start, There will be at least 160 users. I know shared hosting is not the best choise but for now we can only affored shared hosting. Maybe in the future we will upgrade to vps.

I’m new to web hosting, I don’t have any expirience and I don’t know which host to choose.

Any advice about good host for buddypress?

BuddyPress version: 1.9.2
Wordpress version: 3.8.1

Hi All,

As a simple test to see if I can prevent BP from navigating to the /friends/add-friend/<id>/ page I have put the following script in place:

jq('div.friendship-button a').on('click', function(e) {
            e.preventDefault();
            return false;
});

Placing a breakpoint in this script shows that the code does indeed run, however it doesn’t matter what I do within it, I cannot stop the page from navigating to the href url. Essentially I’m trying to override the way the friends system works.

Does anybody know a way of stopping the default behaviour of the friends button?

Tried to set up site as “Forums for Groups” or “Site Wide Forums” as per

Installing Group and Sitewide Forums

As far as I understand the different is only one is Group Integration and the other is Central Discussion Area, right?

In fact, both have the same feature and capability in terms of setting Forum Attribute Type: as “Forum” or “Category”, Status, Visibility, Parent settings etc.

The only thing I see, is that with ‘Forums for Groups’, user needs to request to ‘join’ group. Other than than it’s all the same, isn’t it? did I read that correctly?

How come the site wide activity page, member list page and group list page cant be found anywhere in the buddypress menu system? Now i have to add them to the themes own menu ( not admin bar ) which seems malplaced and takes up room. Any way of getting them into the drop down menu in the admin bar instead, without rewriting codes?
