Greg’s an old client.
Sometimes we have room to troubleshoot stuff, sometimes we don’t. It’d basically be an hour consult.
@mercime – fascinating link. Thank you for sharing it.
@Timothy : i created it at wp-content/themes/(My Theme)/members/single/member-header.php. but funny enough, i cant see members-header.php in my theme file at the wordpress dashboard. i can only see it through my FTC.
thanks
@svenl77
I would go to the trac: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/
and create a ticket for your ideas. This would give other dev’s the chance to look at it, and you can work it much easier than starting threads on the forum. It also keeps all the files you put up so its a good revision tracker.
And what most of us do is create a patch against the newest version of the trunk and the core dev’s check it out and either ad as/is or work to modify it to fit..
And I was wondering, if moving the sidebar can be done with just CSS why are we adjusting the markup for it then? I understand to avoid repetitious code but for backpat sake if css can do it, why create more hassle? PS, this is the stuff that can go on the trac.
@andrea_r
Gee, if that’s a service you offer, I’d be interested once I finally get my multisite project off the ground!
@naijaping where did you create the file member-header.php inside your theme
After taking a trip through the files I found the location and file I had to edit. /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-adminbar.php
This allowed me to modify the linking structure to what I needed.
@LPH2005 did you have the chance to test the bbPress plugin with BP yet? I might be able check this out next weekend, time permitting
I know how hard it *should* have been, I was asking @svenl77 if it was 
But that appears to have been answered, thanks
One of these days I’ll need to poke around your install (again) and see why they keep getting in.
@LPH2005 theme looks nice and clean.
WP themes will look similar at one point or another. I’ve seen freebies with similar design as well, though I suspect many/all of them would warrant a visit to the Theme Decoding Thread https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posts-requests-for-theme-decoding-in-here-1?replies=424
actually I was aiming towards just that, after looking into the bp_has_members function reference in the online user widget. My code looked somewhat similar to theirs but mine wasn’t returning anything.
I suggest using that forum topic to provide an online status.
Sorry it took so long, i have been jumping back in forth threw different projects.
@Cheese. I probably would have seen this sooner if you had mentioned me in your posts
@naijaping – Thanks for that link. Were you able to get it to work with an installation of buddypress?
@ppdesigns == pages I’ve created are mysite/wp/index.php/groups ==
BP devs are going to improve support for Windows – IIS servers since adding that index.php for almost pretty permalinks does throw up errors
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2299 . In the meantime, if you’re working on Windows XP/7 etc, install XAMPP. Or, if you’re on webhost, move to a Linux/Unix server for a more relaxing experience.
@davidbennett what @andrea_r said above. I recommend that you start a new topic of your own.
EDIT- took too long to answer, didn’t see all the conversation already going on
Ok…2 days now and my total spammer count is only 10. I can’t prove it, but this plugin does seem to be working. For what it’s worth, I’ve got the Project Honeypot part working along with the Stop Forum Spam.
If you are getting bombarded with spam, try this out and see if it helps.
“and there is no such directory…”
t will not make a directory on the server. They are *virtual* the same way pretty permalinks work.
@ppdesigns please give a link to your site. You don;t move the bp templates to the top level folder of your install. This is all *theme* based. Any templates files you move from the default BP theme go in the theme you want to use.
And yes, buddypress is what I would call intermediate usage.
Hi,
Wangguard’s site is too slow. Also, the connection to the site keeps resetting even for login / getting the key and such. I seriously doubt if the plugin works smoothly after configuration.
BuddyPress is a typical open source project. First it relies on the community. Second, there is the typical wax and wane.
If I recall, there was a push to go through plugins and put notes regarding the status. Maybe it could be done with the release of BP 1.3.
I had already used the template pack but it doesn’t sort the problem. The links on the top menu want to go to…..my site/wp/members/admin/groups (members, forums etc) the links on the bar further down want to go to mysite/wp/groups (members, forums etc) the pages I’ve created are mysite/wp/index.php/groups (members, forums etc) which do work and show what they are supposed to …….so how do I get the other links to go to the pages that work?
I’ve read various things of what to do which is all ok if you know for sure what its all on about…..and I’ve tried loads of different things but nothing seems to be working……I put the members, forums folders in the top folder but I need an a b c guide on how to do it as I’m shooting in the dark really. The members folder I’ve put in the top folder doesn’t have an admin bit inside it
I have been web building for 8 years but there’s still a lot I don’t know & this is getting into this area unless I have an A B C guide of what to do & I’m not the only person who’s had this problem as I’ve read loads of places about it but not seem a simplistic soloution……its a shame cos wordpress is a very easy program to use and that’s why I’m prefering it to a lot of the other programs….. but this buddypress is not

@johnjamesjacoby Do you have edit access on the wp.org trac, or can you get the SQL used for the reports? There used to be a way to sneak them out, which is how I added some of them to bp.org trac, but it’s not possible anymore!
No.
By default there’s one buddypress for the entire network or is you have multiple networks, it;s the same thing everywhere.
What the plugin above helps you do is have a second (or even third) network and be able to activate buddypress again on that network with new users and different activity.
@djpaul needs codex / documentation is another trac tag I follow over in core WP. This would be for anything that requires a codex entry to explain.
Are you using the default buddypress theme? If not, you need the bp template pack to put the bp template files in your theme. that’s why they won’t work.
The tricky bit is that we don’t have an API for getting BuddyPress data out of it programatically… yet(?).
