BuddyPress.org

Frontend users can also add events using Eventpress. You just need to click on the “Create event” tab within the events page (http://domain.com/events/create/). See screenshot: http://i56.tinypic.com/k4fn9f.gif
What I like about Travel_Junkie’s Buddyvents event plugin is the clean event creation process and the fabulous grid view.

@abstorm You’ll need to upgrade people to Event Creators (a new role is created) to allow them to create events—and they can do that via both the front end or back end.

BuddyVents is good too.

I was actually under the impression that WordPress 3.0.1 stopped working with Dreamweaver CS5. Have you verified that this is a BuddyPress-specific problem?

I wrote a plugin where everybody can create events. Can also be restricted to just group admins.
Have a look here: http://test.shabushabu.eu/

Notice that there is a price tag attached to the plugin.

Awesome, good to know – I’ll have a more proper fix for the plugin sometime soon, but this will definitely work as a stopgap.

Non-admins are not shown the upload fields. Adding the actions and will let you know.

Update: Yes. That worked. Thank you.

I also just noticed that the buddypress Foursquare API isn’t installed

Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘./bp-foursquare-classes’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php:/home/content/76/6912176/html/ncsocial/wp-content/plugins/buddystream’) in /home/content/76/6912176/html/ncsocial/wp-content/plugins/bp-foursquare-api/bp-foursquare.php on line 24

Can I get a bit of clarification on what “can’t” means in “users can’t upload”? Does it mean that the upload field isn’t showing up at all for non-admins? Or does it mean that they get an error when they do try uploading?

If it’s the former, try pasting the following lines into the very beginning of forum-attachments-for-buddypress-bp-functions.php, right after `<?php`:
`add_action(‘groups_forum_new_topic_after’,’bb_attachments_upload_form’);
add_action(‘groups_forum_new_reply_after’, ‘bb_attachments_upload_form’);
add_action(‘groups_forum_edit_post_after’, ‘bb_attachments_upload_form’);
add_action(‘bp_after_group_forum_post_new’, ‘bb_attachments_upload_form’);
add_action(‘bp_group_after_edit_forum_post’, ‘bb_attachments_upload_form’);`

Ditto the problem here. We can’t be the only three that work with CS5 and Buddypress. Any answers here …. pretty please.

No, it looks like there’s no way to do it. It shouldn’t be that way, though – would you mind filing an enhancement ticket at trac.buddypress.org?

Sorry – didn’t see your reply https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/bb_attachments-roles-for-uploading/

We should close that other thread. I’ll have to study `groups_is_user_mod()` rather than `bb_current_user_can()`

Yep – tried `read` instead of `participate` but that didn’t work.

Actually, you should try setting them all to ‘read’. It’ll still be limited to logged in users in virtue of the fact that BP itself only allows members to post in forums.

I’m not near a computer at the moment, but I’ll try to figure it the problem as soon as I can.

@bowromir: hey bowe, your screenshot page is broken: http://bp-tricks.com/buddypress-slick-screenshots/
Nice theme, I like it.

I ran into the same problem and have gone through the functions’ roles to find an answer. Unfortunately, I don’t have a solution.

forum-attachments-for-buddypress-bp-functions.php
lines 46-51.
`global $bb_attachments, $bp;
$bb_attachments=”read”; // minimum role to see list of attachments = read/participate/moderate/administrate
$bb_attachments=”read”; // minimum role to view inline reduced images = read/participate/moderate/administrate
$bb_attachments=”read”; // minimum role to download original = read/participate/moderate/administrate
$bb_attachments=”participate”; // minimum role to upload = participate/moderate/administrate (times out with post edit time)
$bb_attachments=”moderate”; // minimum role to delete = read/participate/moderate/administrate`

Obviously do not want to give upload moderate or administrate to everyone …

Next, the plugin Members was installed, edited “Subscribers” to have upload_files capability and still no joy.

As hnla suggested, the topic is covered extensively on these forums. You can try a search using, ‘white screen’ (https://buddypress.org/search/?f=white+screen)

Before going too far, you might try to increase the php memory limit via the wp-config.php file first. If your host allows it, you can also change the setting in the .htaccess.

https://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP

i would replace the settings ` ‘screen_function’ => ‘bp_core_screen_general_settings’ ` used in the nav_item with your own set of functions

Hi @inakie – have you found a solution for this? Interested!

“The primary theme is buddypress enabled,”
@zenzard – what primary theme? Per your post, you’re using “Ecolines” theme from repo, but I can’t find any such theme there https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/
