BuddyPress.org

Damn the Purple Dynamite, I mentioned myself instead of @alfredojp in my post above ^ and I can’t edit it

@Stigmartyr – no need to thank me, Paul did the heavy lifting.

I’m not 100% sure but I don’t think that any tables get created when a new group is made, rather the existing tables are populated. Usually any tables to be are created are done initially when the mod is first installed.

If you’re trying to add more fields to the group profile like Paul said: you probably want to make a plugin that does this. Unfortunately like you I’m merely dangerous with php.

BuddyPress 1.2.9?

jad117 –
something similar happened to me. I was editing the wrong file that was supposed to be the right file.
there are a few different ways to find other versions of the same file.

my preferred method:
if you have your site backed up to your local machine:
if you have Notepad++ (which is a free text editor program found here ->http://notepad-plus-plus.org/) you can use the “find in files” function. enter the phrase you are looking for (in this instance “public groups”). on the Directory section, select the wordpress folder. I tend to go to the highest directory possible so that I know for sure I’m not missing something.
the results will show you all instances where that phrase is. you can click on the phrase and it will open the file for you!
edit it there and then ftp/upload it to the same file path it came from (the file path is listed in the search results)

other places to look for the file you need to edit:
if you don’t have your site backed up on your local server
sometimes, the files are not on the Appearance tab. sometimes, they are in the plugins folder. (that was the case for one of the profile files I wanted to edit)
yoursite.comwp-contentpluginsbuddypressbp-themesbp-default
go to the plugins page
select buddypress from the drop down menu
edit the file there

hopefully, one of these two suggestion will help.
good luck.

@archonic Consider yourself ignored

@boonebgorges ignore me! i thought the only files in “single” before were groups and plugins with none of the folders. not the case.

@foxly and others – Just wanted to drop a note about a recent commit https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/4977 where I made a minor adjustment to the new load order that should help a lot with plugin backward compatibility. In particular, plugins that are using the (old and incorrect but functional in 1.2.x) method of hooking their global and nav setup routines to ‘wp’ and ‘admin_menu’, which wasn’t working in earlier revs of BP trunk, should now be working. See https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3476 for more explanation.

That said, you should do the right thing and update your plugin so that it does it correctly: set up your globals at bp_setup_globals and your nav at bp_setup_nav!

whoever does update it finally, I hope they consider adding following of other entities like blogs, groups, topics(tags), or rss.

I know i’ve been asking for an update for a few months now. Now that I’m seeing G+ circles in action, something along those lines to tag and group the people you follow would be very nice.

@archonic bp-template-pack will be updated for 1.5, yes. What about the members/single files was particularly confusing?

@foxly Thanks for the new links. I’ve made the change.

Any word on a revised bp-template-pack plugin for 1.5? Just spent half a day trying to shoot from the hip but failed and reverted. The new files under members/single in the bp-default were particularly confusing.

Sounds like something that could be added as an enhancement to future BuddyPress

You could download one of the BuddyPress 1.5 beta releases and either use that, or check to see how we’ve updated it to work with custom menus.

@alaenadunn How do you mean? I’ve copy/pasted your sample text into the “about me” field on http://testbp.org/members/djpaul/profile/public/ and it looks ok?

BuddyPress Follow needs to be updated for 1.5.

esploded; we need at the very least a link to your site, BuddyPress and WordPress version numbers, whether you’re using multisite, and whether you’re on IIS or not

No. If you want to create your own table (and I’d suggest you carefully consider if you need one), put the creation code into your own plugin.

If your query is written correctly and your db user has permission to write it should work to your detriment.

Hey guys, this is the code you need to paste to the wiki page to get it to work properly …

Thanks!

I’m with the same kind of issue here. Any ideas?

I’m using WP 3.2.1 + BP 1.5 Beta.
