Thanks @djpaul,
Yes, I remember that. Just trying to bring it back as an option to the site admins and allow them to extend it.Going to put a patch later today for that.
Re query: Yes, the query count is still applicable to bp trunk #4396. It is only in the case of multiselect box where the query is done for each item in the list. will look into that and put some patch.
@doctordr, The front end posting capability is coming as part of wordpress upgrade in near future(hopefully). They are making the quickpress available to front end. checkout this ticket for details(It was dropped in 3.1 and let us hope it comes with 3.2) https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/14966
A huge limitation of BP at the moment (and WordPress in general) is the lack of front-end posting and moderation. I’ve had to hack this into my current site by using conditional user level statements to present a restyled admin screen to users – one which looks identical in terms of header, footer and CSS to the front-end – and unsets or removes redundant menu items. The way around this would be to modularise certain admin functions (posting, comment management) so that theme designers have flexibility in the way they are presented and integrated on the page with other functions. This could be achieved with shortcodes or even widgets. I can see no functional reason why users should be sent to an un-themed back end to post new blogs and I’m sure it’s holding BP back as the choice for many sites.
Unfortunately I can’t offer to help apart from documenting my hack as an interim solution.
In terms of the multiple CSS suggested by @bowromir, I’ve spent the last year working with Zend Scaffold as used within Webligo’s SocialEngine 4 and it was a PITA. Scaffold caches an aggregated version of all stylesheets used in the theme into a single CSS, which sounds logical but makes it very time consuming to debug or alter the base stylesheets since tools such as Firebug cannot tell where styles originate from.
Bump. Would really appreciate any responses to this post – it’s immensely frustrating asking for assistance with a real problem (i.e. one who’s solution would probably help others) and then getting zero feedback (even if that feedback was to say – don’t be a douche try this..)
@cnorris23 I would suggest that anyone looking into moving where the data is stored in the database hold off a little while, until the core team have a plan about how custom post types will work and be implemented for each of the components. We have had lots of discussions about custom post types for BuddyPress, but we’ve been focusing on finishing up 1.3 for some time now. It’s great you’re interested, though
@JamieWade I am putting a new version of CB in next 3-4 days which will support the activity reply. If you have other feature suggestion please do let me know here or on the cosmic buddy’s blog page. sorry for the delayed reply.
@candy2012
i did not get the post notifications and I was not active here, so could not help you. sorry for that @latinosamorir
Yes, I have the solution. I am posting a detailed tutorial today. Will link here.
btw, the above code still applies.
I am ridiculously busy with my own network of sites, and so although I don’t have time (or skill, probably) to ‘own’ redesign work on buddypress.org, I would love to help in any way I can.
BP-Default 1.3?s CSS is mine. @mercime has recently identified a number of issues which I am working through; if anyone wants to look at it with me, get in contact soon.
Drop me a line Paul, give us an idea of the issues that have been identified.
@djpaul – Sounds good. When you get a moment can you post up a rough outline of tasks and expectations on bpdevel? We’ll use it as the running stream of communication as needed, to keep it public. Maybe make a master ticket in trac right away too, to post diff’s, files, etc…
@uloga – Creating a robust replacement for bp-default isn’t something to do on a whim. Let’s get a few people to collaborate rather than compete, and see who wants to do what. Deal?
@John James Jacoby
I need to check into that.I believe I am.
what about default theme?? can some of us start developing some examples then you guys can pick the best one
@bowromir Have you checked out flattr.com as a donation platform? If all BP plugin/theme devs standardise on one donation platform it would make things simpler, no? With flattr you can also do monthly micro-donations where you choose how much you want to donate per month and it is spread out between the different plugins you have flattred. @boone already has an account there and also @jeffsayre has(had?) one.
At least to me, flattr would be easier to contribute smaller amounts monthly to various plugin devs.
