BuddyPress.org

@javiermatosdes & @dba2k10 – will those solutions work for someone who has commited the sin of 1-click install with Dreamhost?

@Virtuali – That’s nice, but what is the solution if a bb-config change occurred?

Afraid not sure what to suggest with this, can’t personally recreate this type of issue on custom test installs. I assume that you have the BP theme files copied over and adjusted and that nothing necessary for BP has been inadvertently removed -although that’s doubtful.

It’s going to be hard to help with a third party custom theme, without having all the pieces to hand as it were, hopefully one of the others will chip in with some thoughts or perhaps even have a better idea why the issue could happening.

Registration issues, once submitted, I’m not going any further, the validation doesn’t activate, and the new user doesn’t capture

I think you may need to expand on this a little , once submitted? does it actually submit? what is meant by “validation doesn’t activate” and “new user doesn’t capture”

This will possibly be hard to help with given it’s a third party theme that appears to be causing the issues and that it works as expected with default BP but understanding exactly what isn’t working will be important.

What’s in that include file ‘addon-functions’ are there scripts in there possibly causing issues?

You can see how BuddyPress works at http://testbp.org. Why not test Drupal Commons and then come back here and share your thoughts?

=== Is it possible to display complete details and add additional fields tabout the member including a photo? ===
Yes. The avatar upload will be the photo of the member.

=== and I’d really not want them to be a member of WordPress. ===
BuddyPress is a WordPress plugin that uses WP functions in many cases including being added in the wp_users table. If you don’t want the members to be WP “users” in the main site, go multisite and install BuddyPress in secondary blog.

I found this thread and it looks like exactly what I need to stop users real names from displaying in there profile. the problem is I cannot find the file /members/single/profile/profile-loop.php
can someone point me in the right direction. is it in buddypress pluggin or in wordpress main files?
Alice.

=== but the custom field box is nowhere to be found. ===
@candanosa While in your Post > Add New or Post > Edit panel, click down the “Screen Options” tab on the upper right hand area of the screen and check on Custom Fields. When you close the Screen Options tab, it will show up.

@gunju2221 BuddyPress forums of course However, the Speed theme is a free theme for BuddyPress which is a rarity at this time. So, if there’s a way to provide some support for it in a reasonable time frame and manner, I will

Go to the Theme Forums of Speed Theme please.

This is a buddypress support forum. Thanks!

This is really easy with S2Member. Go to your S2Member settings in your admin and then General Options > URI Restrictions.

The next step would be to block the sections you want to protect based on membership level. If you would like to keep the group homepage visible, you could do this:

URIs That Require Level #1 Or Higher:
/members
/events
/groups (if you want to block all access to groups)

You can also protect certain templates (like the post form or a join group button for example) by using S2Member conditionals. For instance:

`
Some content for Members who are logged in with an s2Member Level >= 1.

Some public content.

`
It’s a great and extremely powerful plugin! Good luck Be sure to check out the S2Member APi/Scripting section in the plugin settings to learn (a lot) more.

PS: Shameless plug: I’ve created a BuddyPress Theme with S2Member Integration as well.. Read more about it here: http://bp-tricks.com/purchase-bp-slick/#S2Member

hi there guys this is pretty old i know however, i desperately need help:
i’m using the following setup:
wp 3.1 bp 1.2.7

@smurkas:

I followed all your instructions. If i change the line 45 in the loader, i get an error from my browser saying there were too many url redirects.
If I do not change the loader code, I notice that the $bp->current_ation variable is empty

Please help.

@Bowromir LOL, I had no doubts that you would be able to help Ross and conquer IE 7

@mercime: Damn you and your “advise”. My CSS is perfect.. always.. It’s the old browsers that can’t keep up..

To be honest the use of “position” still confuses me a bit, but I’ve fixed it thanks to your tips. It’s fine now! Thanks!

Any luck?
I tried @shanebp‘s solution and it did not work…..

Still trying to get mark read working

@Gayatriom

Remove the “ from the 2nd line or you’ll get errors.

`= 1) : ?>

[members-loop or other content here]
`

This says: (if) 1st condition is met, do something,
(else) do something else,
then close the conditional (endif).

@dharmen99

Go to your WordPress backend and click “Users”. If you’re running WP-single, you’ll find it under the “Plugins” menu; if you’re running multisite, you can find the link in the “Super Admin” menu.
Check each user you want to delete, then in the “Bulk Actions” dropdown at top-left, select “Delete”.
Click “Apply”. You’re done.

In addition to what @hnla said above, if you cannot log in your WP installation

Well, I could waste all day on this and never get it so I am going to move on. Just too far over my head it seems.
Thanks anyways @r-a-y

I’m trying this now… cloudflare… I’ll let you know what it what… do you also use the wordpress cloudflare plugin with buddypress?

I don’t have access to @apeatling directly… can one of you ask/e-mail? @djpaul @johnjamesjacoby

Caching avatars would be a HUGE improvement for us…

Thanks.

@rossagrant since you bought the theme at bp-tricks.com, you should be able to get support from @Bowromir

Try cloudflare
