BuddyPress.org

Darn it I could have added that ages ago is this really the first time it’s been noticed

@modemlooper https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset/3334/
I’ve just put this into trunk. Thank you for the heads-up.

Same thing here!
After I installed buddypress and activate the default theme I viewed the webpage and there is nbo where to login as admin. When I logged out, I couldn’t log in again as admin. What gives? Is anyone going to answer this question?

Isn’t the simple answer to copy across page.php fix up and submit? they are testing the child theme after all, it will perform as expected then, it may defeat the purpose of a child theme but fixes the issue from your perspective?

Old theme? Can you test if you have the option on bp-default? If you do, take a look at https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/bp-default-theme-changelog/

Hi @boonebgorges

i think there is a error in function bporg_decodeit

`$text = str_replace(”’, “‘”, $text);`

i also tried this code but it doen’t work for me. I added it in bp-forums-filter.php. Probably the wrong place.

I don’t know what you mean. Plus I think we are reluctant to change the default theme at all before 1.3.

Cool, I’m glad the first part worked!

Here’s a thrown-together-in-five-minutes filter to replace missing avatars with BP’s default mystery man. This probably won’t differentiate between user and group avatars, which you’ll have to sniff out of the $params array (in sort of the same way that I do with width and height). The basic idea is: if bp_core_fetch_avatar is not outputting any HTML, swap out the boolean false with the default mystery man.

`function bbg_no_avatar( $html, $params ) {
if ( !$html ) {
if ( $params )
$height = ‘ height=”‘ . $params . ‘”‘;

if ( $params )
$height = ‘ width=”‘ . $params . ‘”‘;

$default_image_url = WP_PLUGIN_URL . ‘/buddypress/bp-core/images/mystery-man.jpg’;
$html = ‘‘;
}

return $html;
}
add_action( ‘bp_core_fetch_avatar’, ‘bbg_no_avatar’, 10, 2 );`

BP 1.2.5.1 I think was the last version that worked with WP 2.9. However, I would strongly encourage you to upgrade your client’s site to WP 3.0 so you can use the latest version of BuddyPress. Otherwise you will be missing out on security fixes and other bug fixes.

what version of bp and wp? as this might be severely out-of-date and not needed.

noting the version of IE helps. just uses jquery but i tested with IE8/9 and works.

Thanks a lot ervanerfian

adding add_filter( ‘wp_title’, ‘bp_get_page_title’, 10, 2 ); to functions.php worked for me

Hello Boone,

Thank you for your reply. I really appreciate getting an actual answer as I may be pretty comfortable working with WordPress but BuddyPress code has me a bit lost at the moment. I will Try this and post back.

About my quote, i’m sorry if it seemed “confrontational” but I guess its just my frustration talking. I’ve been asking about this and searching for months but could never find a rational solution.

Thanks again,
I’ll try it out now.

You have to resolve permalink issue in WordPress before installing BuddyPress.
Apache Module mod_rewrite must be enabled for “pretty permalinks” so check with your webhost. Or, if you have access to the httpd.conf file, find #LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so and delete the # to uncomment it

It seems it is possible to integrate Simple:Press into the activity streams.

Integrating Simple:Press into BuddyPress Activity Stream

Support Forum

Hey, so I’ve been looking at this problem myself in the past couple days.

I’m finding that WP blog comments that are held for moderator approval are not getting inserted into the activity stream, but blog comments that are auto-spammed (from the comment-blacklist), are showing up in the activity stream.

I just entered a trac ticket about this if you’re interested in more details, or have something to add: https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2699

Seconding @r-a-y works in IE browsers, Chrome, Safari and Opera.

Yes, it can be done, but do you want to risk exposing your site to vulnerabilities?

If you still want to do this, add the following code snippet in your theme’s functions.php:

`remove_filter( ‘bp_get_the_profile_field_value’, ‘wp_filter_kses’, 1 );`

There was just a thread about this:
