BuddyPress.org

Multiple BuddyPress Social Networks

BuddyPress’s registration page and process don’t use the hooks WP-reCAPTCHA is expecting.

Here’s a small (~40 lines) plugin to make the reCAPTCHA field show up and be processed during registration. This has only been tested on single-site installs, and probably won’t work (or will mess up) a multi-site install, because that will trigger different behavior from WP-reCAPTCHA.

So sorry I didn’t see your request for more help. I have my settings to be notified of any @mentions and replies to my forum posts but for some reason I did not receive any notification that you had replied. Not sure if it’s a problem with BuddyPress.org notifications or what.

Anyway, it’s probably too late and you hopefully found a solution already, but I’ll post this here just in case you or anyone else are still looking for a way to disable the random visit menu in the BuddyPress admin bar without disabling the admin bar itself.

Rather than explain the inadequate solution of changing #bp-adminbar-visitrandom-menu display to none in the stylesheet, let me give the function override solution instead:

In your theme’s footer.php file, right BEFORE it says “, add the following code:
`
<?php
if (!is_user_logged_in()) {
remove_action( ‘bp_adminbar_menus’, ‘bp_adminbar_random_menu’, 100 );
}
?>
`
That’s if you want the random visit menu to be removed only for users who are not logged in.

If you want it to be removed for all users, whether or not they’re logged in, use this simpler code instead:
`
<?php
remove_action( ‘bp_adminbar_menus’, ‘bp_adminbar_random_menu’, 100 );
?>
`

I see that the font for the code I just posted is not clearly legible in places. Please note that the remove_action line ends with a semi-colon ;

Sure you can create a Page Template and use that to create a new page – especially for the “blog” portion of the site. You can create category-buildings.php and that will show up with all your posts in said category.

Is BuddyPress installed in the same WP where your 84 existing posts are?

Are you using a child theme of bp-default or a WP theme with BP Template Pack?

BP/WP versions?

Answered in this thread

== integrating Buddypress onto the Genesis Framework ==

@apriljoy217 The Genesis Framework has its own “Genesis Connect” plugin to make the Genesis theme compatible with BuddyPress.

I should have said multiple WordPress sites are not good on $5 hosting. BBPress is changing to a WordPress Plugin and would probably not require as much resources. FaceBook connect creates WordPress users. Users can use BuddyPress or Next version of BBPress from WordPress user accounts.

Sometimes, you just have to get your hands dirty to get stuff done

@aljuk Same problem here, and your solution worked. Thanks

@kevbow If you’re running Firefox (and I hope you are ), go to Tools > Options and click Remove individual cookies. Scroll until you find your site name, open the folder and scroll again until you find bp-activity-oldestpage. Highlight it and click Remove cookie. Done.

Before you can create blogs, you need to create a network on your WordPress install. Here’s how:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

Hello – I just installed this plugin but I’m using WPMU and after network activating it I cannot see it in my Network Admin > Buddypress > *anywhere*

Nor can I see it in Site Admin. Is this not intended to work with Multisite? It doesn’t need to, I just wanted to get users imported..

Sorry, I don’t know why it does that with code tags.
Put this:

/* Inherit the default theme styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css );

/* Inherit the default theme adminbar styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css );

Do you have template pack installed? If you do, all the files you need to edit are currently in your theme folder via FTP.

For example, yourtheme/members/single

To edit styles, template pack, or buddypress doesn’t add any styles to buddypress by default. You can add them by adding this to your current CSS.

`/* Inherit the default theme styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/default.css );

/* Inherit the default theme adminbar styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css );`

Then, of coarse, edit the CSS to what you like.

Ggortan, do you have jetpack installed?

I have noticed many problems with jetpack causing memory errors.

Sorry to see this thread. Here are two resources that might help you install BP and troubleshoot blank pages:

@dennissmolek memory limits can be overcome in the wp-config file, too. I’m not sure what happens to wp-settings during an upgrade of WP. Is the wp-settings file potentially overwritten?

Their website is http://devpress.com and the link to their new theme is http://devpress.com/themes/visual/

Sounds like a memory issue. I had it when working with WP-commerce. My suggestion is to adjust your memory in wp-settings to something like: ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ‘128M’);

What’s happening is theres a glitch somewhere and its crashing the whole script. If the glitch happens early it displays a big blank nothing.Turn off ALL plugins, then turn on BP. See if it crashes again.
Also, view the source of the blank page, you can see if anything is loading at all.

link?

These instructions will show you how to enable Network Mode in WP: https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

This will not affect BP, except that you will have a Blogs tab on your main nav.

I’m afraid I don’t know anything about the gamechangers part. If it turns out that you go with a Subdirectory Network installation, you’ll have to make that subdomain off limits at Network Admin > Settings.
