BuddyPress.org

There isn’t a profile rate plugin but this one could possibly be adapted

in admin under BuddyPress components link you can disable groups component.

This buddypress installation here has some buggs bugging around for quite some time – impossible to edit post (try it!), search does not work etc.

Anyways, wanted to add a link to a plugin which might at least solve some of the issues (make sure you read the FAQs):

@roman – As long as you are running BP 1.2.9, you shouldn’t experience the WPDB error described above.

There’s built in hooks to change slugs and other things.

hi, did the same stupid thing by mistake. updated to wp 3.2.1.
which is the best known way to just get back to the latest known as working version of wp?
thanks!

Would be the same as moving a WordPress site. because that’s what you have. Your new host will probably even move it for you. Good ones do.

Those conditionals do not apply to activity comments.

The easiest way is to use CSS to hide the comment link.

The alternative is to copy the entry template into your child theme and edit:
/bp-default/activity/entry.php

As for nested comments, currently you’ll have to apply a filter to “bp_activity_recurse_comments” (located in bp-activity/bp-activity-templatetags.php):
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.2.9/bp-activity/bp-activity-templatetags.php#L678

Don’t know anything about filters?

This will get slightly easier to modify in BuddyPress v1.3 as activity comments now have a dedicated template file.

Try modifying the BP Activity Stream widget to do what you need:
http://buddydev.com/buddypress/buddypress-sitewide-activity-widget-for-buddypress-1-2-and-above/

It’s applicable for all activity, but it’s probably possible to hack it to work for your one group.

Hook into the filters or actions whenever possible. (Basically anywhere in the codebase with an ‘apply_filters’ or ‘do_action’ call.) Otherwise, you’ll run into major upgrade problems and headaches depending on the level and complexity of your hacks!

Need a primer on filters and actions?

That tutorial is for themes, but applies to plugins as well.

Hope that helps!

Site update still ongoing. @tnd, just include word buddypress.org with search terms when you Google.

My first thought would be what theme are you using? If not the default BuddyPress one try that if you are able and see if you get the same result.

It would probably help to get a little more information too please. What version of WordPress and BuddyPress are you using? If possible a link to you site too could help.

I haven’t tested it and suggest you use with caution however: http://www.code-zen.net/2010/my-groups-widget-for-buddypress/

This also is an older bit of code so may not even work on latest BuddyPress. If you back up properly before you use it may be worth a shot though and even may be able to lead you into a way to adapt to your needs if it doesn’t work fully.

Just so we can do a sanity check have you under settings enabled Groups for BuddyPress? I assume the answer to this would be yes as you can get to that page.

I also assume you have the permlinks set up and everything else works correctly?

I also assume you updated the theme to the latest version available or if your own theme made sure it’s updated with any recent changes?

It sounds a little drastic but as a sanity check what happens using the default theme for BuddyPress? My thoughts are this is could be a theme issue. Also if you have access to your PHP logs are there any errors in it when you create a page and it fails?

You could take a slightly different approach and hide the content but keep the tab: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/hiding-activity-content-for-non-logged-users/

There is also this (I’ve not used it though): https://buddypress.org/community/groups/private-buddypress/activity/

As for the second bit.. which plugin are you using?

I think this post is something similar to what you are asking: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/make-groups-visibile-but-invite-only/

This post probably expands a bit more what you can do:

https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/trying-to-alter-layout-of-bp_activity_action

See this bit specifically which I ‘think’ will fit for you:

if you have a back up/copy of bp-custopm.php and function.php just upload them and replace files that you have modified. i was also getting this error after modifying profile.php and bp-custom.php.
i had downloaded the back up copies of profile.php and bp-custom.php before making any changes to these files.
when i got this error i just uploaded back up files and replace files that i had modified, and everything was fine. I was able to log in successfully to my dashboard.

“and doesn’t send registration emails when users try to sign up”

Not send emails isn’t a function o the registration page. Your members probably are not recievng emails, which is a different issue.

Use the built-in widget that comes with buddypress?

Don’t edit the plugin. The changes WILL be overwritten. There’s tons of hooks everywhere and a different process for doing things, depending on what you wanted to change.

What are you tying to do?
