This looks like just a WordPress site without any BuddyPress in it?

Or is this just spam?

If you register through the BuddyPress registration, you’ll notice that your username will not be allowed to have spaces, capitals etc.

Same thing applies here, don’t let your usernames contain spaces.
BuddyPress just can’t parse the %20 (which is a space) and sends you back to the frontpage.

Start a new thread please and supply details about your setup.

@Giovanni hi,
I had a problem with Invite Friends plugin. My WPMU admin was messed up. Whenever users were trying to create a post or page on their blogs the Css was loading wrong or giving wrong outputs.

After disabling the plugin everything went ok.

I hope you consider checking that out.

Thanks

Take a look at Brajesh’s Global Search. It has functions to return search results for forums, blogs, members, groups and site pages/posts.

Creating The sitewide global/unified search Page for your Buddypress Theme

In the WP admin under BuddyPress in the left side bar you can create more than one profile edit screen. Click profile field set up. Then you can create things for users to fill out on their profile. The default screen is called base but you can change that name.

I think you might be barking up the wrong tree. Since you want to repurpose an existing query (the ‘my groups’ query) you don’t really need to alter the querystring. Instead, you should be altering the behavior of the query itself, which happens at the level of the bp_has_groups() function, as found in bp-groups/bp-groups-templatetags.php. One of the arguments for that function is user_id; when one is passed, you know you are looking at a my-groups loop.

Ideally, you would be able to filter bp_has_groups() to detect when a my-groups-type query was being requested, and then hijack it and do a query just for hidden groups. Unfortunately, I don’t believe that there is going to be an easy way to do that in this version of BuddyPress. For one thing, while there is a filter on bp_has_groups, the original arguments (like user_id) are not passed along to the filter in BP 1.2.7 (it’d be a good enhancement request). Second, there is no way to filter groups by status (public, private, hidden) at the moment (that too would be a good enhancement request).

One quick and dirty way to do something like what you want to do is to filter bp_has_groups, grab the content of the group query out of the groups_template global, and remove the ones that are *not* hidden. It’s not an ideal solution for a number of reasons (for one, it screws up pagination) but it can work. Here’s an example off the top of my head (untested!)

`function bbg_hidden_groups_only( $has_groups ) {
global $groups_template;

// when we are looking at a my-groups page…
if ( bp_is_user_groups() ) {
foreach ( $groups_template->groups as $key => $group ) {
if ( ‘hidden’ == $group->status ) {
unset( $groups_template->groups[$key] );
}
}

// reset the keys so you don’t end up with blank spaces
$groups_template->groups = array_values( $groups_template->groups );
}

return $has_groups;
}
add_filter( ‘bp_has_groups’, ‘bbg_hidden_groups_only’ );`

There’s an issue tracker at trac.buddypress.org (same username:pw as you use here), where you should feel free to open tickets for ways that BP needs to be changed in order for your Open Social add-on to work. For more general discussions – when you are talking about extending BP rather than modifying it – this forum is probably a better place. There are certainly more eyeballs here than on Trac.

It’s possible that there will be a version of the BP buddybar that is built into the WP 3.1 admin bar by the time the next version of BuddyPress comes out. However, I do not think that the BP Buddybar will be taken out of BP in the next version in any case, as it would disrupt many people who have modified and extended it. Worst case scenario, the Buddybar will be taken out and put into a plugin so that site admins will have the option of installing it for that Classic Look

Thanks for the info. I have made it that far and have installed the forum but it is giving me a plain white page. How do I activate the forums?

@grow-stories this is an 8 month old thread you have dragged back up. please, in future, if you have an issue you require help with you must start a new post/thread and describe the problem in detail along with any applicable info such as version numbers , custom themes, plugins in use.

You activate the plugin in the usual place for plugins, you visit the BP menu section and configure any options you want such as forum install, extended profiles etc, then visit the theme section and activate the bp-default theme or suitable BP compatible theme you might have.

So I have a WordPress self hosted site and installed the BuddyPress plugin but I do not see where I can access the plugin to utilize it. Any help?

I’ve been thinking about writing a general RESTful API plugin, but haven’t had the time to start so far. My events plugin already supports getting event information and posting events in xml/json format. The next step is to send invitations and such and for that user information would be required, but it doesn’t make sense for an events plugin to handle general things like members. Right now I’m using API keys (with OAuth to come at some point) to check for access rights and that should also be handled by a more general plugin, which other plugins could then plug into.

Also very interested what you come up with, Carl.

Look for the `bp_adminbar_thisblog_menu` function in `bp-core/bp-core-adminbar.php`. It’s around line 151 (BP Version 1.2.7).

There is an `if` statement with `current_user_can( ‘edit_posts’ )`. Replace `edit_posts` with whatever role you want to check it for. https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities

And you might already know this, but you should try to make your changes to the function using `bp-custom.php`. https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/bp-custom-php/

@satomom – Unfortunately, I’m not accepting any new projects at the moment. But you could try posting your project in the BuddyPress jobs board.

@David Carson –

I know this is a long shot. I installed s2Member and love it — except that I can’t get the integration with PayPal to work properly so that purchasers can complete their site registration and login. I also can’t get help from s2Member and am thinking I might hire an s2Member consultant to help me with that last step. Is there anyone you can recommend? Do you ever do this sort of thing? I suspect it’s an easy-ish task for someone who really knows s2Member well.

Thank you!

I had the same problem with jcarousel and buddypress, and paid a few dollars over at wpquestions to get the fix, which involved editing a line of code in a buddypress js file which handles easing. The full answer is here if anyone else gets stuck: http://wpquestions.com/question/show/id/1615

hth

@boonebgorges BuddiPhone is actually a BP component plugin. It creates a slug /mobile. I would love to use REST and make it native, then I could use the hardware – image uploads – contact lists etc. I messed with this plugin a bit https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/json-api. BuddyPress json post / get would be killer.

Yeah, @modemlooper what are you using for your iPhone app in the absence of REST? Or are you requiring a BP plugin to make it work?
