BuddyPress.org

Heh heh.

BuddyPress is a complex piece of software. For some sites, groups will be the best choice for community engagement – traditional forums, along with all the benefits of group extension plugins (BuddyPress Docs, BP Group Documents, etc). For some sites, the interactive activity stream will be better suited to fostering community – sort of like Twitter or Facebook. It’s highly recommended that you set up and configure your BuddyPress installation first by determining the needs of your site, and then by enabling and disabling components as necessary.

Best buddypress site ever seen! Now I will give up. Thanks.

Get rid of the popup bubble over content. It’s not showing anything just keeps recycling. Put some sort of background color on latest-update in the profile page.

It turns up the good, and turns down the suck.

The goal of BuddyPress is to maximize your site’s excellence.

status is updates, topics/posts is forum posts (but bbpress1.0), time since active is part of the default template(and bp includes a template function), and followers plugin did not work on my instance but that includes a count template function.

if you want the exact output here – you could use the functions in the plugin (+ followers and bp core time_since) and output your own mixup of counts via the action hook bp_after_sidebar_me

Once BP 1.6 + BBP 2.1 hits – I’ll update this plugin with ordering and more counts

I’m also interested in turning off the registration process.

I saw this snippet (to be put into functions.php):

if ( bp_core_is_multisite() )
remove_action( ‘wp’, ‘bp_core_wpsignup_redirect’ );
else
remove_action( ‘init’, ‘bp_core_wpsignup_redirect’ );

from this thread:

But its not working yet for me.

@etivite

hi, could this plugin get number of total activities for specific user?

if not, could you please take a look on this topic:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/how-do-you-show-a-members-total-post-count/?topic_page=2&num=15

thank you.

@oddzuki it might just be an issue with your custom theme. Change to bp-default theme.

By having tags and using BuddyPress groups, couldn’t that essentially eliminate the need for a forum?

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/unconfirmed/ – use this to view and activate unactivated accounts.

I have not encountered that activation issue before. To troubleshoot, I would:
– Deactivate all plugins including BuddyPress and change to Twenty Eleven theme. Check registration on regular WordPress install. If activation doesn’t work, resolve this first in WP forums and with webhost. If registration/activation works proceed to next step.
– Activate BuddyPress plugin only and change to bp-default theme. Check registration/activation here. If it doesn;t work, file ticket at https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket (log in with same username and password). It activation works, proceed to activate your theme and other plugins then test again.

I suggest that you need to isolate the mail problem. Deactivate BuddyPress and BP plugins. Make sure that your email confirmation is working in regular WordPress before activating BuddyPress. This could be something where you would need to contact your webhost’s tech support to resolve the issue.

@schteev this site is still in transition, sorry for the inconvenience.

Posts in BuddyPress.org are indexed very well by Google. So in the meantime, you could Google “buddypress.org schteev keyword/s-of-your-topic.” Thank you for your patience.

yeah, I’m thinking of this theme too (or a complete custom design). I’d like users to note their location in the profile & then be presented with relevant information (posts)…

Also thinking of this: http://premium.wpmudev.org/project/classifieds & getting someone to modify it for me (I’m not a developer!). These guys also have a “directory” plugin however it is not “buddypress compatible” but a few people have requested it (might be worth your while inquiring too!)

I have the same problem with @jankian . And BP 1.5.1 not solving my problem.

Are you using a cache plugin, they do not work well with BuddyPress. Also your initial question was about viewing the profile as the default page of a user file not redirecting on login.
