Two among these pugins are BP Labs and Buddypress Wall.
Hi @prometheus-fire ,
Thanks for your reply. But i don’t get this to work with my site. My php-skills are btw not very good…
But: i find a Solution. For blog-posts i use this:
function bbg_record_my_custom_post_type_posts( $post_types ) {
$post_types = array ('it_movies', 'it_video_games', 'it_preisalarm', 'post'); // Hier die Slugs der Custom Post Types eintragen, bei denen Erwähnungen im Beitrag selbst berücksichtigt werden
return $post_types;
}
add_filter( 'bp_blogs_record_post_post_types', 'bbg_record_my_custom_post_type_posts' );
And for comments i use this:
function bbg_record_my_custom_post_type_comments( $post_types ) {
$post_types = array ('it_movies', 'it_video_games', 'it_preisalarm', 'post'); // Hier die Slugs der Custom Post Types eintragen, bei denen Erwähnungen in den Kommentaren berücksichtigt werden
return $post_types;
}
add_filter( 'bp_blogs_record_comment_post_types', 'bbg_record_my_custom_post_type_comments' );
And it works, but without custom messages. Anyway – now it works and for the Future, i wait for the buddypress-update. 😉
Hey everyone! I just setup buddypress on another site but I am having trouble changing the avatar on accounts using internet explorer. Everything works perfect on firefox but on ie when you click “browse” to select an image it doesn’t do anything.
Yet it you click upload it tells you to select the proper file, however with the browse button not working you can’t pick one lol
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
Hello,
1. For my community, I am trying to make “verified” or “official” accounts for users to become authentic and prevent impersonation from my site just like Twitter or Facebook. How can I make a plugin that allows me to display a verified check next to the name on profile header? I want it to show up on the profile header and member search by the name.
2. I am using the Frisco theme and I was wondering how can remove or change profile fields from profile headers?
3. Is there a plugin for cover photos for users?
4. How can I change “Favorites” to something else?
Please help, thank you.
Wordpress: 3.6
Buddypress: 1.8.1

Please advise how I can change the text on the “Private Message” button.
Currently using WP version 3.5.2 BuddyPress version 1.8.1 with the Avada theme by Themeforest.
Here is a link to the site: http://69.195.124.60/~youngwo8/
Thanks in advance,

Thanks for response!
I did some research and found that s2member syncs profiles with buddypress, so that part is solved. The only thing I’m still really looking for is a notifications bar or widget, other than the wordpress one. Hopefully there is a plugin for that?
It was an error with my buddypress installation. Solved.
hey.
yeah i suspected as much sadly.
i know on simplepress forums they get round it by creating a ‘fake’ account for whatever username is typed in as the guest username, i was just hoping somebody had tried to modify it to work on buddypress at some point.
i dont have anything like the skills to try it lol.
ill have a coffee and look at the adding hidden text to the status update field again

Hello everybody,
It’s the first time I have to modify Buddypress so I need some help with the templates used by the plugin, and I can’t find topics or help for Buddypress 1.8… 🙂
It’s for the site http://www.freerider2.fr, I use WordPress 3.6 with Buddypress 1.8.1, and a PHPBB 3 forum with WP-United 0.9.2.5 to have the same accounts on the forum and WordPress/BuddyPress. (And everything works !). I intend to keep up to date plugins, so the changes should not be deleted by a sudden update. 😉
For the purpose of freerider2.fr (it’s a french website who list the tracks for the game Freerider2, to summarize), I want to change the pages like “Profile”, “Activity”, etc… of every member (like http://www.freerider2.fr/members/XXX/), to list the tracks made by the selected member. In fact, made a personalised member page for my purpose.
And… and don’t know with files I have to edit. (I use the default page created by BuddyPress.)
Preferably, it is possible to modify this template without changing anything at each update? Like creating a theme for these pages would be added to my theme already made for WordPress/freerider2.fr ?
I’m French, so please don’t use words too complicated to answer. 😀
Thanks a lot ! 🙂
That sort of reads like a spec sheet.
What have you attempted thus far, too what stage have you got your site to?
Many of those requirements are to a degree configuration pf plugins so shouldn’t present too many difficulties.
A few of those requirements might be a little trickier and require the services of a developer.
@famous There isn’t really such a thing as the ‘login page’ so you’ll need to explain what page you mean exactly.
If wanting to modify and customize BP then in respect of the BP template files it’s important to understand how theme compatibility works, how the template hierarchy is configured and what paths/folders templates must be placed under.
These two guides will help you understand what can & can’t be done, read those then some aspects will be clearer for you.

Hi,
Buddypress creates Activities and Members page each time I refresh. Please help me to solve this problem. I’m using wordpress 3.6 and buddypress 1.8.1.
Thanks and regards

Okay let me re-phrase that, can you point me in the direction of templating virtual pages (such as the login page) on buddypress?
Thank you
I have Version 1.8.1
Isn’t that patch only for the admin panel stuff it sounds like?
My times were incorrect on the activity widget, so I went deep to fix the activity problem I was having.
Hello!
Thanks in advance to all who read and respond to this. I am trying to build a membership site with the premise of the members paying for access to a community to collaborate with. Ideally my end result includes:
-A general forum for anyone to view (easy enough)
-A members-only forum for collaborative project postings (like a job board, for example – in fact something closer to that would be even better)
-The ability for collaborators to have their own forum or group messaging (as in buddypress), paid members only
-The synchronization of forum and membership profile pages, etc. Currently I have the WPMU Membership plugin and its “Profile” page is different from the BuddyPress profile, obviously I would like them to be the same (so that if a user updates their name in the BuddyPress profile it is concurrent throughout).
-A clean looking solution for notification and links to profile, groups, etc either in a sidebar widget or toolbar at the top of the page (preferably not the wordpress toolbar)
That is more or less it. What is the best way to achieve this? Or even something close to it? I am relatively familiar with WordPress but new to BuddyPress, however I assumed this wouldn’t be very difficult. Please excuse any ignorance I am showing. :p
I reeeeeeally appreciate any help with this at all, it would be amazing to get this figured out! I’d owe any and all of you a beer!
-Jimmy
Hi,
– WordPress : 3.6
– Plugins :
– BuddyPress 1.8.1
– BuddyPressDocs 1.4.5
– Gravity Forms 1.7.7
– Gravity Forms MailChimp Add-On 2.3
– Gravity Forms multilingual 0.9.3
– Members 0.2.2
– Showcase 1.4
– Style Tweaker 0.11
– WordPress SEO 1.4.13
– WPML Multilingual CMS 2.8.2

– WPML Translation Management 1.6.1
I would like give rights to my member only to add/modify/delete a post with “job” category.
Is something exists already ?
Thank you 🙂
it’s interesting you should say that was thinking of building a custom theme for families using buddypress and would also be interested to know if that’s possible.
@hnla I was planning something infinitely more simple 🙂
Just working on a little project and wanted to filter the body text and subject line of a few of the emails that are sent out.
Besides you don’t need a legend, I’m sure you could make it happen 🙂
I suppose it’s because Facebook, in many ways, does things right. I’m not on board with having a FB copy by any means, but some of their features are nice. Though I think many of those features should be left to plugins rather than being in core.
Hi there this is my first post.
I am trying to make a social website where users can post up content and using flavor as the theme. I have already downloaded Buddypress. I need to know how i can enable users to create a profile page.
Then from the profile page they can go on to a content page where they can load up an image/video (which can be featured on the front page) of the flavor theme.
From the content page I need to know how the user can go to a payment scheme on the following page (if they want more features).
Please break down the stages for me and suggest any plugins that would help.
Thanks

This is really wierd but it only happens on buddy press. I just did a clean install on buddy press but all of my settings were still saved i think it might have something to do with that.
