BuddyPress.org

I to am interested in this. Any update on this? I have buddypress working on my multi-site but it only works on the main site and then on my subdomains I just get an 404 error if you click on members for example on a subdomain – so does it setup the buddypress across the network or per site on the network? I am googling and trying things but not fully understanding what it will do in a multi-site setup on 1.2.9

@onyx808

will my members still be able to ‘reply’ to the activity updates as normal if I insert this code..?

`function filtering_activity_default( $qs ) {
if ( empty( $qs ) && empty( $_POST ) ) {
$qs = ‘action=activity_update’;
}

return $qs;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_ajax_querystring’, ‘filtering_activity_default’, 999 );`

Also where exactly do I place this in: functions.php please..?

closing this one. mercime

Just to clarify, do you already have an external bbPress installation? Your external bbPress installation must use the same database as your BuddyPress installation otherwise this integration won’t work.

If you do not have an external bbPress installation using same databse, then you should use the BP Forum Setup and create/install a new bbPress forum.

@mercime I did, thank you for the advise!

Which theme? Do non-BuddyPress widgets work? Have you tried removing the BuddyPress widgets from the widget area, and adding them again?

It’s safe to place the code in wp-config.php.

@donmcint go to dashboard menu Appearance > Header > Change image and background color there.

@lunaix you should post at plugin dev’s site with details about your install – might be some conflict with another plugin or theme or something else, Tested the plugin on BP 1.3-bleeding and later in BP 1.2.9/WP 3.2.1 and it’s working great.

@careercreatrix Before there was WP Multisite, there was WPMU(multi-user) a long story https://wordpress.org/news/2010/06/thelonious/

== 1) Do i have to “create a group” in order for people to be able to join my discussion forum? I just want one plain old discussion board, with multiple topics. ==

Yes, at this time you would have to create a group and be a member of that group in order to post forum topics. If you only want the forums without the social networking feature, bbPress the plugin is in beta3 https://bbpress.org/blog/

== 2) It says you have to have registration enabled, so people can register. How do I make sure it’s enabled? ==

Go to dashboard Settings menu > General > Membership – check “Anyone Can Register”

== there isn’t a “Create a Group” tab when I click on “Groups” in the top bar, ==

You will find the “Create a Group” link if you go to your site’s /groups/ directory, it was never included in BP Admin Bar. So if your WP is installed in domain root i.e. http://yoursite.com/, you go to http://yoursite.com/groups. Beside the page title, Groups Directory, you’ll find the link to create a group in the bp-default theme. Or, you can go directly to the URL
http://yoursite.com/groups/create/step/group-details/ – replace yoursite.com with your domain name.

It looks like you have a group, and just need to start creating forums…

@christophg I have my math worked out, and the basic structure summarized. I’m going to start the heavy lifting this upcoming week and hope to test by next week. I’l let you know how I make out. If all goes well, I will then study up on how to make this a plugin.

Introducing BuddyPress Simple Google Map Plugin

update: i was running the previous version of buddypress. then i attempted to update BP and now my entire site is down with a fatal error. (bp-links-core.php on line 704)

Yes that is the right place for the buddypress, but you have to get bbPress standalone version 1.0.3 instead of the plugin version.

Are you still on WP V.3.1.4 and Buddypress V1.2.8 or have you upgraded? Change to bp-default theme and see if same behavior applies.

@djsix, first time I’ve heard about IE saving the day for BP user, cool Are you running WP 3.2.1 and BP 1.2.9? WP 3.2.1 fixes JS problem in WP 3.2.

Change to bp-default theme. I believe @modemlooper will be updating bp-columns theme come BP 1.3

wp-includes/registration.php has been deprecated since version WP 3.1. What WP/BP versions are you on then? Plugin or theme conflict. Deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and change to bp-default theme.

How did you get the BP trunk? Did you download it via svn?
