BuddyPress.org

Hi @boonebgorges can we specify the exclude bp_has_group parameters in widget_logic for excluding some groups from getting displayed?

Appreciate your help. Thank you

@pollyplummer

Did you add these:
Set a custom user database table for BuddyPress (and WordPress to use):
define ( ‘CUSTOM_USER_TABLE’, $tablename );

Set a custom usermeta database table for BuddyPress (and WordPress to use):
define ( ‘CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE’, $tablename );

Yeah, all Facebook/twitter logins create fake emails.

I had a similar issue weeks ago and nearly gave up on BuddyPress because of it. Today I tried a fresh [1] install of BuddyPress 1.5.2 with WordPress 3.2.1. I did have to wait about five minutes, but the email did come through.

Are you getting any error messages?
Try to log in with the new username and see if you get the error “you need to activate your account” (not verbatim) (Update: The error reads, “Your account has not been activated. Check your email for the activation link” in WordPress, I’m sure the BuddyPress error message is very close)

[1] I didn’t change any settings from their default expect (“Anyone can register”). The only other plugins that are activated are AutoChimp and JetPack, which shouldn’t have anything to do with this issue.

Hang in there! BuddyPress is a young project. If you persist, I’m sure you’ll figure it out.

Yes with Google XML Sitemaps plugin v 3.2.6 on Wp 3.2.1 and Bp 1.5.1

The third panel down in the centre column ‘Additional Pages’ > Add new page

@CharlyNY if you’re in no rush, then wait for it. Or set up a test install where you could explore the options available.

@CharlyNY @komo whatever route you take, remember to always back up database and server files before upgrading. What takes a couple of minutes is better than hours/days worth of ^$#^$^&%%#^&^##.

hi neononcon,
it’s been a month since last reply but may i add my opinion here..
study carefully first about the features of BuddyPress (as well as other social tools) before u really implements it on your working site. yes, there are options to disable forum, if you don’t really want to use it. BuddyPress, forum, twitter, or FaceBook connect are great tools to communicate with site audience. install them all and your site will look perfect, but it can be overwhelming and time consuming to reply all questions here and there. technology evolves way much faster than good documentations

dear Charly, and other noobs like me.. mind this:

1. upgrading wordpress version with non wordpress-standard theme on it is bad.
2. upgrading wordpress version with non wordpress-standard theme which has it’s own widgets on it is worse, you need to rearrange module’s positions.
3. upgrading wordpress version with non wordpress-standard theme on it AND you have buddypress on it is even worse, see by yourself if you dare.
4. upgrading wordpress version with non wordpress-standard theme which has it’s own widgets on it AND you have buddypress on it with buddypress skin is the worst, makes u want to stop using wordpress anymore.. ever!

well, wordpress is good, but a noob is a noob. i messed up my site because of it, lol..

hi slushman,
try to login from admin link, not from main page. if u login from homepage, you’ll be treated like ordinary user, no admin dashboard will appears.
i have the same problem.. also with JetPack sending me to homepage again, nothing seems to happen and i still got the “Your Jetpack is almost ready – Connect to WordPress.com to enable all features. Connect to WordPress.com” message.
i don’t feel like it’s a bug though, maybe there’s something that we miss
i’m still figure out what i missed, that’s what makes me land on your post here.

There is a helpful plugin called BuddyPress Profile Privacy.
It allows users to set privacy settings to their page, (such as, activity stream view, they can allow whom they want to view their activity ) along with many helpful settings.

@candy2012
If your looking for only view to view friends activity on the activity page it’s very simple. Go to the activity php file. Locate the nav menu and you will see a code something like ” is selected ” changed it to the friends activity therefor it will display friends activity rather then the sitewide activity.

Ps, I hope this helps. If not.. I tried.

please check here what i did on the website to make that http://sc1.bpracv.com

Hope it may help you

Ideally, you should create a test site with the same server environment you have now along with the plugins and theme. Then install BuddyPress etc. and do the BP Compatibility process then some exploration and testing of other BP plugins.

Now, if you are adventurous, you can always back up your database and server files, then proceed with the BuddyPress installation and then the BP Template Pack plugin, etc.. If anything goes awry , you can always revert your installation to what it was before with your back ups.

1. google doesn’t know the pages are there because you haven’t told them (by linking to them)
2. even if they do get there, you’re telling them the page really belongs elsewhere…

wtf?

Did anybody figure this out? Using Quantum.

@aces

I tested out that plugin, I couldn’t see any options to add in my forums and stuff to the XML file in the settings page, does this still work?

@jordash – um, where is your navigation pointing to your BP install?

@jordash – Hi, in your post, you say BP pages are not getting indexed, but “topics” ARE getting indexed….

Is this a typo?

Thanks for posting an update, @peeld.

There is an existing ticket going in one direction: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3463, and there is an old discussion related to the broader issue: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2678

This is part of a larger problem with the way that activity items are hidden in certain cases. It’s long been an issue of mine, so I’ve opened a ticket with a view to fixing it sooner rather than later: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3857

I’ve been testing this out on an Apache server, and I get the same error when I try to post to a forum from the forum directory page. If I go into a group forum, I can post there. On the windows based server, I click on forums under a group and nothing happens.

I’d really prefer sitewide forums, and I’ve looked at bbpress, but it does not support a forum reply rating system. BP does. I’ve tried installing the site wide forums alongside the groups, but nothing happens when I click the button to install it. Says it’s already installed. Is there another solution I’m missing?
