For what it’s worth, Paul’s awesome snufflewufflepants patch will make this easier in BP 1.3 https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2649

In the meantime, hnla and Roger’s advice is good.

@imjscn –

You need to put that code you don’t want for user 1 in an ‘else’ clause then.

If you are working with the template code in this way, you should really read up on PHP. A simple primer on the language will take you through these basic constructs in no time.

@lumosnorge

Hej Christine – the code is in the default theme, in the file: bp-default/members/single/home.php

Did you create a child theme, or edit your changes directly over the default theme?

Note: you shouldn’t edit the default theme directly – as you will run into problems when you upgrade BuddyPress.

Have a search in Docs on here for details of creating a child theme.

Anyway, the section of code (from the default theme) that creates the nav bar is:
`

`

It goes between the item-header and item-body blocks.

You need Harry and Hermione helping you write the code!

? Disable the plugin!

Check the plugin group for answers or ask the question about the error in that group

However I would think that this plugin hasn’t been updated to work with WP 3.0 or BP stable but I might be wrong.

To get the activity in to the BuddyPress activity stream, you use the function bp_activity_add()

I don’t know phpBB, but suspect there will be a hook when threads / topics are saved… That is wheee you would add your code.

This thread points to a similar solution for simple:press.. Hopefully, you can adapt it easily for phpBB: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/adding-a-activity-to-the-activity-stream/

I deactivated all non essential plugins and tried to see if it worked, which it did. The create group process went just fine so I started to activate all the plugins one by one. And at the end when I’d activated all the plugins again it worked. I find this rather strange but I’m happy its working again.
running:
Eventpress (+ bp custom posts)
BP xtra signup
bp group management
enhanced buddypress widgets
contact form 7

The simplest might be to use an RSS feed from your phpbb forum and use the external BP external activity plugin …

New BuddyPress plugin: BP External Activity

@zlamczyk 3 months late on this but what exactly did you do to that last snippet you posted? yes, it would get overwritten but I am in a bind just like you were. we’re doing an alumni-only social network and the email MUST be @alumni etc .edu and therefore hand approved…

and yep, bp registration options is crap! err, doesn’t work. but, we are using wp e-commerce members only module which means that if I can just stop the user self-activating, I am pretty much good to go – (plugin requires sign up as subscription is being purchased, and it sends that damned email!!!!)

if you happen to see this, thanks!!

It means your theme already has the buddypress files moved into the theme directory in the right spots I think

You’ll want to check a recent thread in the thesis forum. Someone posted the steps to get thesis and BP to work together. The files requiring editing are listed as well as the specific content to replace.

i’m doing the same thing. I’m pretty sure it will work. I’ve seen a thread o ver on wishlist that says it will.

haven’t done it yet though, so it’s not a for sure yet

thats a BP usability issue and not realky a mobile one as you can get email on your mobile device.

Hmm… I don’t know abut your second question regarding Google Analytics, but these 2 plugins are along the the lines of your first request. You’ll need to do some tweaking with them but the general gist is there:

https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-community-stats/

https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-member-profile-stats/

I’m in a similar place. Have and want to use thesis 1.8. Just installed BP for a membership site and want to make them play nice. The idea is to use thesis for a front end website and then when they become a member, they get to see BP and use it.

ideally, I’d like to simply put up a membership system (wishlistmember) which then allows them to see say a BP install in a subfolder type of system

@lumosnorge

You have a section of code missing from your theme.

You should have another layer of primary navigation (item-nav). You are only seeing the sub navigation for the activity tab.

I had the same problem, but as Roger Coathup explained that the profile view was supposed to show in a separate tab I realized something was wrong with our site. We are using the default theme, and I can’t seem to figure out what we might have been doing wrong to prevent the profile tab from showing up. I have included a link to a screenshot of the problem:
http://lumosnorge.no/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/screenshot-buddypress.png

Hope someone will be able to help me, as I would vert much like to have the profiles show up on our site.

Thank you in advance.

Well currently if “User A” makes a status update and then “User B” replies to his update, “User A” receives a notification in his email inbox and sees what “User B” said. Currently, if “User A” wants to respond to “User B” he has to log back into the social network, find the update, and then type in the message.

It would be easier for a lot of mobile users instead to hit “reply” in their email inbox and then just type in their response and then click “submit”.

The more I think about it though, it seems like “reply-by-email” would actually be a separate plugin. It would be useful not only for mobile users but also regular computer users. Although I think it would help mobile users the most.

I have no luck in changing the default to profile… despite having never changed the slug… I can change the order just fine, but the second I put the snippet in wp-config the base user profile (which default goes to activity) doesn’t work and goes to home page.

crap.

@paulhastings0 what do you mean reply-by-email?
