BuddyPress.org

BuddyPress supports private messaging ‘straight out of the box’ by default (‘send message’).

Do you mean ‘instant messaging’?

@mercime – you, me and everyone we know is aware of the issue !

We are aware of the issue. Google has indexed buddypress.org pretty well, so you can use Google in the meantime … search “buddypress.org key words or phrases and/or username”

@michaeljdornan – there’s a job board group on this site (not easy to find though!)

It makes sense to post your requirement there: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/forum/

Your costs could vary considerably – from just a few hours work to add basic BuddyPress capabilities to an existing ‘news’ theme (dependent on amount of HTML restructuring, styling), through to several weeks development to build a fully fledged news site with full backend workflow support and tight ‘site function related’ BP integration.

Having an indicative budget when you add to the jobs board would help.

If you don’t get it sorted through the job board, feel free to drop me a line.

@rickpowell you would need to resolve your multisite issue first –> https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite

@jomjom will check this later today.

@workingman just so we can align the structure in one go, please post the codes for header.php, page.php, sidebar.php and footer.php as well.

@michaeljdornan Email me at pwf.aron@gmail.com and i’ll be glad to help you out

@patrickhitches neither BuddyPress nor bbPress are installed in your site. If you’re still want to hire someone to fix the layout for you, do post at

and/or
– http://jobs.wordpress.net/

@twoeyes_violet backup database and follow instrutions https://codex.buddypress.org/buddypress-site-administration/deleting-buddypress/

Contact webhost for correct mod_rewrite settings for your Windows installation.

Deactivate plugins except BuddyPress. Looks like the s2member plugin is not configured correctly. Do check their docs/forums for proper settings with new registration page.

BuddyPress and bbPress are not active in your installation.

Haraldo, there is nothing wrong with your install, there is NO built in way to message all users in BP. The site notification will merely place a widget type notice at the top of your sidebar for all logged in users, which thy can then choose o close. It isn’t emailed or passed as a private message.

There are a couple of old plugins for this such as: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-mass-messaging/screenshots/

It’s an option that is useful, HOWEVER, I would strongly recommend you export your users to CSV. Again export plugins are available and import people into a 3rd party email service like Mailchimp.

This is far better for email marketing, however in itself is a bit tricky, as unless your members have signed up or opted into a list, it’s technically breaking the T&C’s of all 3rd party mail apps.

The problem with sending email direct from your server is if you get people unwittingly or deliberately labelling your mail as junk/ spam in clients like hotmail, yahoo and gmail, the ip address of your server can get blacklisted.

At that point NO mail at all from your server is going to get through to those services, not just for the accounts that labelled you as spam but your server will be blocked and mail won’t reach anyone with a hotmail address etc.

Sounds dramatic but it could kill your community if you aren’t careful.

You should always use a 3rd party.

Rules are still incredibly stringent though. You are generally allowed one spam complaint in every 1000 emails sent.

Hope that helps!

Members can’t write on each other’s walls in BuddyPress anyway. Not unless you are using a plugin / bespoke theme that supports that.

If you are, you’ll have to disable the bp_is_friend() check in that code to enable the function in all cases.

@doctordr I just found this forum and took a look at your Avatar Tools Plugin for social engine. This is exactly the kind of functionality I would like to have with my buddypress site. Do you know of anything out there? I’ve searched but yet to find a solution.
