Topic: Ugrading to later Beta versions without losing changes

in group forum Installing BuddyPress

ethanrocker
Participant

Hello,

I have Buddypress 1.7 (beta 2) installed on my site. I am preparing for some pretty significant modifications to the BP Core and was wondering what the best approach would be for this going forward? the obvious goal is to not lose any of my changes when upgrading the the later betas as well as the later versions of Buddypress.

Thanks,
Ethan

Topic: Downsides/potential risks for not updating Buddypress

in group forum Installing BuddyPress

Hello,

What are the downsides/potential risks for not updating Buddypress? The reason I ask is that I am planning on making some significant customizations to the BP Core and am getting the impression that it is difficult to update the BP Core without losing your changes.

Correct me if I’m wrong.

Thanks,

Topic: Functional Buddypress Components — Keeping vs Removing

in group forum Installing BuddyPress

ethanrocker
Participant

Hello,

I am planning on removing a lot of components from the Buddypress portion of my site. Is there any downside/risk to just removing the CSS of these components or would you recommend removing the functional elements associated with it (HTML, etc)?

Would having a ton of hidden, unused Buddypress components slow down the site’s performance and make it more vulnerable to security breaches?

Thanks!

Topic: Buddypress REGISTER link not working

in group forum Installing BuddyPress

ethanrocker
Participant

Hello,

I just installed Buddypress 1.7 (beta 2) onto my site, http://www.roxxsterclub.com. I set up/configured all Buddypress associated pages, but when I click on the ‘BUDDYPRESS REGISTER’ link on top-right of the header, I am redirected to the homepage. I am obviously looking for that link to take me to the Buddypress Register page.

Anyone know what’s going on here? I wasn’t experiencing this issue with the 1st beta.

Thanks!

Ok, this is resolved…

FYI (and, more so, to self) – what it needed was a full page refresh in both browsers (that’s: cmd + shift + r). I was doing a lesser kind of refresh (shift + reload) that I thought was fuller.

However this became stuck (between deleting the files and reinstalling BuddyPress), something needed flushing fully.

Topic: server response increased when loading avatars after hosting images on subdomain

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

ntmedia
Participant

To allow browsers more requests, i created a subdomain, set the root on wp-content/uploads and told wordpress under settings –> media the new full URL path. Now all images are served from the subdomain. Works fine.

Also buddypress user-avatars are now received from the subdomain, but all pages including more then 2-3 avatars, have an server response over 4 up to 20 seconds.

Error-log shows: Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use ‘LimitInternalRecursion’ to increase the limit if necessary.

I fixed that endless loop by adding

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} 200
RewriteRule ^ – [L]

to .htaccess. But the issue is still there.

I also tried to change

$bp->avatar->upload_path = bp_core_avatar_upload_path();
$bp->avatar->url = bp_core_avatar_url();

to

$bp->avatar->upload_path = ‘wp-content/uploads’;
$bp->avatar->url = ‘http://www.domain.de/wp-content/uploads’;

in bp_core_avatars.php so buddypress will not use the subdomain. It works and avatars are served from wp-content/uploads-path but the server response is still the same.

Any ideas why this happens and how it could be fixed?

BP 1.6.1
WP 3.4.2

BP ver 1.7 does away with group forums

Funny that, I’ve just set up group forums on a 1.7 beta test site, think maybe what you meant to say is that BP as of 1.7 does not bundle the older bbpress that was packaged along with BP core. From 1.7 on you need to install the standalone bbPress plugin if you want forums period, but having done so bbPress will allow you to create group forums if you wish and also to import existing group forums if on an older install being upgraded.

WordPress is the #1 CMS in the world because of the low technical point of entry. It’s intuitive, easy to use, easy to install, well documented, and quite easy to hack. It’s usage has eclipsed both Joomla and Drupal because they are not. I think many people think BuddyPress will be as easy to install and use as WordPress itself, and it’s just not (yet).

#1 cms is an opinion and regardless WP is a blogging platform trying to move processes into a more CMS like app but it’s not there yet.

No it’s utterly intuitive (in fact that’s not really a great description) when you get deep into certain aspects, yes it’s quite well documented but is still lacking detail in some areas, and just cos there’s a page on something doesn’t mean it’s all good info. Joomla has never been worth passing comment on, comparisons between Drupal and WP erroneous they are two different platforms, Drupal is a CMS built to be as such and Druapl is not and never was designed for non coders it’s a developers platform.

Despite all that and reservations about various parts of the WP API it’s still essentially a nice platform to develop on and it’s primary feature/role as a blog blows all competition out of the water.

Buddypress will likely be a whole lot easier to use for non coders with 1.7 now but still they will imagine the earth and want to have it but realise it’s not that simple and BP does require coding skills if you want to progress beyond simple out of the box installs into whatever theme you’re running.

As for documentation get in there and help write some please – it’s an aspect few want to get involved with, not enough glory I suppose?

@Chouf1 for someone who is upset I’m complaining – all you really did is complain that I was complaining. I didn’t give any details, because mine were the same as the OP’s. In addition, I was talking about a base install – and the groups/forums issue is the same no matter what the theme.

I have since found a few tidbits of information that were helpful.

1. BP ver 1.7 does away with group forums
2. BP ver 1.7 is in beta 2 and almost ready for release
3. moving forward forums should be integrated using bbpress (which you have to install separately)
4. you only get the “create” a group button from the master root /user-groups BP URL
5. profile BP links like /members/username/groups are different than the master root pages
6. to manage a group after creation before BP 1.7 you have to actually visit the groups page in question (/user-groups/groupname) and the click “admin” to make changes – there is no master groups editing page
7. in BP 1.7 there is actually a new “groups” section in the wp-admin sidebar where you can (for the first time) have group management capabilities on the backend (edit / delete)

I stick by the fact that there is very little documentation on how to use BuddyPress after first install. I have been using WordPress since 2004 and have created and hacked hundreds of plugins and themes. I have written thousands of blog posts and articles / tutorials on WordPress. From that background, having installed BuddyPress I can quite easily say that it’s not intuitive to use, it’s difficult to figure out the integration points, and many things that should be easy are just plain hard.

It’s usage has eclipsed both Joomla and Drupal because they are not. I think many people think BuddyPress will be as easy to install and use as WordPress itself, and it’s just not (yet).

I’m definitely figuring out where everything is, and how to get going after first install. I didn’t find much here in these forums or the Codex in that overall regard. Even external blog tutorials are a little sparse on the subject – most information you find is just severely dated.

Am I willing to contribute to the documentation? Certainly. I’m in the process of writing up my findings now – but I was looking for answers first…and all I was finding were others with similar unanswered questions.

I am using the latest version of wordpress and the latest version of buddypress. I love the left navigation menu in my wordpress backend.

If anyone knows the css and the html or anything that I can use to achieve this, I will surely appreciate. I really need this, someone please help me out!

My website Netball Scoop is centred around a quarterly online netball magazine:

Forum: http://netballscoop.com/forums/latest/
My user profile: http://netballscoop.com/members/netballscoop/

The use of BuddyPress is minimal – mainly private messages and user profiles for our forum (1300+ members). But it works really well with bbPress and Pippin’s Restrict Content Pro.

At the beginning, I had trouble with Media Temple’s gridserver, but since upgrading to their dedicated virtual hosting it has been a breeze.

Would love to hear your feedback 🙂

Hello everybody

Is it possible to use buddypress/wordpress as Open Atrium type itranet solution? Open Atrium is good, but its old and uses drupal and i like wordpress more.

What i need in my intranet:
– Groups that have their own “site”
– Only admin add’s person to a group
– Every group should have their own eventcalendar in groups front page
– Every group should have their own notepad or pinboard where to place information
– Some sort of “case tracker” where you can post “cases” vie public form or email, and people in that group could view those cases and comment on them.

In reply to: Buddypress and sliders

redknite
Participant

Thanks for the reply. You noticed what I did, it appears to be a js problem. I have deactivated all my plugins except the buddpress. (my regular slider is a custom slider: not a plugin) and still i get the error. If i active a slider plugin, that slider doesn’t work either. No other plugins are causing this error. If i activate all other plugins and leave buddypress off both the sliders work.

I’ve looked online and see a lot of people are having this problem, but there has been no solutions posted that I have found.

I appreciate your help though, are there any other ideas you think might work?

I updated my bbpress to the 2.3rc1 too. Thanks for the heads up.

Lastly, do you have suggestion for a different poll program?

Total Noob here.

For some reason I cannot get my child theme header.php to call a separate style sheet for a custom homepage template that I created in the child theme root directory (using BP Columns theme).

I have disabled Buddypress from que-ing up the style sheets and have used the following code in the header.php file in my child theme folder:
```
        
	<link rel=&quot;stylesheet&quot; href=&quot;"/home.css
	type="text/css" media="screen" />
	
	<link rel=&quot;stylesheet&quot; href=&quot;"
	type="text/css" media="screen" />
	
```
No matter what I try it will not call the home.css style when my custom template home page loads.

I’ve searched for the past several days but nothing seems to work.

Any Ideas? as I just wanted a simple login page that looked different than the rest of the site.

Thanks in advance
