BuddyPress.org

Read this codex article to properly customize language files for BuddyPress:
https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

> You need to convert that .pot into a .mo file.

I think that you also need to change the file name so that it includes a text domain, and then specify that textdomain in your config file. Eg, buddypress-BBG.mo, and `define( ‘WPLANG’, ‘BBG’ );` (I think.)

Did you change it in the database?

Allow Your Users to Change their Username on your BuddyPress Based site

I did this thinking that it would work like a child theme, but nothing seems to change… so I am assuming this is just for “storage”… ?

wp-content/languages/buddypress.pot

I’ve made a couple of changes in the language file but don’t see them on the site. No caching used.

Create a child theme of bp-default theme https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

Copy over sidebar.php from bp-default theme into your child theme’s folder https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.1/bp-themes/bp-default/sidebar.php
Remove lines 29 to 58

I, too, am looking for documentation. I found the BuddyPress codex [1]. However, I find it somewhat lacking. Is it a wiki like the WordPress Codex[2]? If so, I may add what I learn to help others.

Ideally, I am looking for a single-document version of the documentation. I would like to print it and have it as a reference as I work. Has that been done before? What would it take to write a script to combine the existing docs at [1] into a single document (HTML, PDF, etc.)?

@mercime, I am specifically looking for information about user profile fields: I’d like to import an existing set of user fields. I haven’t searched the plugins yet; I’m still trying to get oriented to the BuddyPress support system. As for “submitting articles,” where do the articles live? How do I submit one?

Thanks!

Hi @nicolez, have you found a solution yet?

i would really like to know more about this…….i m very new to wordpress and buddypress…..this is my site http://theainet.net…i have added more fields on registration page but i could nt found it on dashboard.,,,

Pagination on Members Directory is working for me.

The problem that I see is that your left sidebar dropped down to below content and comments div in your BP pages. Make sure you follow the instructions in Step 3 of the BP Template Pack compatibility process.

nanchante2 – no need to post twice.

We know there are have been, and continue to be, issues with bp.org. Work is being done on a redesign.

but the download link http://mydev.dz-tchat.com/buddypress-notifications-manager-bpnm.html is not available now !! Is there a new link ?
Thanks in advance!

You might what to look at something like this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bowe-codes/ to help you easily post that information in multiple areas.

@namzar – screenshot of the problem or better yet, URL to specific page would be welcome.

Same problem here. I temporarily solved by using remove_all_filters('upload_dir'); in my theme. I hope for a better solution in the next buddypress core update.

hi @mercime,

i am using the same theme as misterbdon (instyle theme) and followed your instructions. almost there, but buddypress is extending past the theme’s sidebar on the right side of the page still. why? can u explain more “The Sample Page made it all clear. I have revised all codes added to the bottom of header-buddypress.php and at the top and bottom of sidebar-buddypress.php in this post. ” u posted? really appreciate you help!

ditto… there are heaps of issues on this site still…. I thought it was just me.

sounds like you want to have 2 different types of memberships… Which is what I’d like to implement as well!

Just as a sanity check you’ve set to use forums and you’ve gone through their set up process?

Perhaps resaving your permlinks ‘could’ also help? I’m thinking maybe you have a plugin or something that is also interfering but take it you’ve tried using the default BuddyPress theme and / or removing plugins to see?

Assuming you are using the latest 1.5 BuddyPress I think you can just assign the page you’ve linked to registration as the home page by using reading settings. That’s a lot simpler method doesn’t require any copy and pasting.

@boonebgorges: Thanks: this all helps. My very related question: can I have “activity” and “members” and “groups” pages on multiple blogs? For example, can I have groups pages here:

example.com/groups
my.example.com/groups
another.example.com/groups

I want the same groups showing on all the pages (the ones in my core BuddyPress install). It’s just a matter of allowing my users to access the BuddyPress features within each site.

Thanks again.

Out of interest are you using any other plugins? It could be a plugin clash. I’d also suggest you reset your htacess / permlinks (just incase).

And what would this S3 integration do, exactly?
