To help isolate the problem: what happens if you switch to the default BuddyPress theme – does everything work ok in that scenario?

p.s. your original post said you just see the old styled pages, but when I visit your page, it’s actually a 404 page error that shows

@r-a-y is correct. This is not an issue of privacy. Privacy is about offering users the ability to control access to their data.

Hey There!
I built a plugin that locks all subscribers out of EVERY page in the dashboard and redirects them to their buddypress profile page. If buddypress isnt installed, it redirects them to /wp-admin/profile.php and stops the redirect on that page only..

Check it out here:

I built a plugin that does exactly this! Hooray! Someone needs it!

When a subscriber attempts to access any /wp-admin/ page they are redirected to their buddypress profiles!
If there is no buddypress installed, then /wp-admin/profile.php doesnt redirect, and all other dash pages redirect to it.

I just submitted it to the plugin repository minutes ago!

How about this workaround:

1 – Create a page template and copy the content of your register.php file to it.
2 – Create a blank page in WP using that template. Eg: my-custom-home-page
3 – Under “Settings” > “Reading”, select that WP page as a static page at “Front page displays”…

Now your front page IS your register page. Next… @Brajesh at Buddydev has coded a cool activate/login/redirect plugin that can do the rest:

I’m sure you could tweak the code of that plugin to redirect to the “edit profile” template rather than the “Public” view.

Hope it works!

You cannot post the first item on the activity stream to Facebook. It asks for the URL but all the other activity stream items gets the URL.

Edit: My mistake. There were special characters in the content that I tried to share and it didn’t seem to like that.

Hi Dwenaus
Sorry that we’ve let it slip — once 1.2.6 is finalised (to avoid any last-minute code changes), I’m going to update the skeleton component. And then I’ve got a really cool idea for something like a 2.0 skeleton component, which I need to run by a few people first and then I can share some details.

@r-a-y

Thanks and no-doubt the right file… Here is what I have:

Everything appears as it should… the box for the tag entry appears appears, BUT when I put tags in and click SAVE CHANGES -iit does not save them….

Here is a Pict:

Can someone please change the awesome skeleton plugin to reflect these important changes – I like Boone, spent about an hour trying to work this out. Until stumbling on this thread. The skeleton loader uses bp_init to load the files, it should use bp_include and the functions in the plugin core should be updated too.

@pisanojm – You should try inputting this in the edit forum post template:
bp-default/groups/single/forum/edit.php

Give it a shot!

I posted this in another thread on the topic, but I thought I would post it here too in case it helps anyone. I don’t know if this was anyone else’s issue, but this was my problem and the solution I found.

SET UP: Running BuddyPress on a single install (not MU) and using the default BuddyPress theme with an assortment of plugins (but removing all the plugins did not help my problem).

PROBLEM: jcrop function wouldn’t work after an avatar was uploaded either on the registration or edit avatar pages within buddypress. The image and thumbnail would show, but there was no crop box to change what was selected for the thumbnail. Very frustrating.

SOLUTION: stupidly simple once I finally found it – for some reason there was no link to the external jcrop javascript file appearing in the header of the pages! (This can be checked by viewing the page source of the problem pages via your browser) To fix this I edited the bp-core-cssjs.php file which is inside the bp-core folder inside buddypress. Right after this line:

`$aspect_ratio = (int) constant( ‘BP_AVATAR_FULL_WIDTH’ ) / (int) constant( ‘BP_AVATAR_FULL_HEIGHT’ ); ?>`

I added:

`<script src="/wp-includes/js/jcrop/jquery.Jcrop.js”>`

And now the crop tool is showing up and everything works perfectly! Note that you may need to change the path to the Jcrop.js file depending on your site setup. Before this I had also downloaded the latest version of jcrop from http://deepliquid.com/content/Jcrop.html and updated it on my site, so I don’t know if that plays in at all or not.

Again, don’t know if that helps anyone else, it might have been something quirky in my set up maybe, but it did the trick for me so I figured I’d share it just in case.

We just used the latest branch

@mzuvella:

the function you want is bp_activity_add() declared in bp-activity.php

This page shows an example of setting up parameters for a new activity (although they don’t use the function, but take a longer handed route to achieve the same thing): http://blog.slyspyder.com/2010/08/15/integrate-simplepress-forum-into-the-buddypress-activity-stream/

thank modemlooper, didn’t know about that. works..

@ri-kun

That would be the item-list-tabs. Try this:

div.item-list-tabs {
border-bottom:0;
}

To target stuff like that really easily, install the Firebug addon for Firefox.

@jordashtalon

Ah right… I think that “Bulk Action” only becomes available in WP3 if you have enabled Multisite. And not too sure if WP-Activate is compatible with Buddypress. Here’s an auto-activate plugin that is compatible with WP3 single:
http://buddydev.com/plugins/buddypress-premium-plugins/plugin-bp-auto-activate-auto-login-redirect-to-profile-automatically-activate-your-new-user-signuplog-them-in-and-redirect-to-their-buddypress-profile-on-signup/

It’s a premium plugin, but the small fee is well worth all the cool stuff @Brajesh puts out almost weekly. He’s also a great help if you ever get yourself into a coding kaffuffle.

You can also test the plugin here:

@modemlooper not the css, im talking about the drop down menu, when you click “Get email updates” there’s a drop down that doesn’t expand the div, it ‘drops down’ over what would be ( in the image above ) covering “Email Options”.

‘Your Share’ button’s drop down expands the div, I would like it to do the same as the group email one, just open over things..

Soz the 1st post wasn’t very clear.

@hnla – both plugins have maps
