BuddyPress.org

No problem Marking this as resolved.

@tiagobeloto
Woops. half my reply didn’t post Theirs also this tutorial which allows others to post to your activity stream – http://buddydev.com/buddypress/using-activity-as-wire-in-buddypress-1-2-themes/ (this one should allow people to comment on them)

Sounds like you chose the Sitewide Forums. Add this shortcode to the Forums page
`[bbp-forum-index] `
or choose another or combination of shortcodes per https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-shortcodes

It would appear that BuddyPress overrides the send from address to wordpress@yourdomain.com which you may not have setup as a email on your host.

But yes the Mail From plugin allows you to change it to an address that you have on your host.

you can go back the the wordpress toolbar by adding
define( ‘BP_USE_WP_ADMIN_BAR’, true ) to your bp-custom.php file – https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/bp-custom-php/

The buddybar is being depreciated, so it’s no longer worth messing around with it to get it perfect (and the wordpress toolbar is alot cooler lookin’)

This is the part you need to take note of –
Note: During the Installation Wizard, Forums will be associated with the “Forums” page. In some installations, you do not need to change anything. But if your sitewide forums won’t work, go to wp-admin BuddyPress > Pages and you’ll find the association and remove the Forums Page as the selected page.
However, i have managed to get this far. and while a forum does install. it appears it removes the FORUM tab on the website and so is only findable by publishing and clicking on links. Can somebody shed some brighter light on the issue? thanks in advance

@illusionApp – what exactly isn’t working? is the sidebar not aligned correctly? or…?

We have some codex entries that might also help – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/bp-template-pack-walkthrough-level-easy-2/

@soeasilyswayed you need to revise sidebar-buddypress.php per code updated here where script needs to be added in regiser page.

== In the BP site directory listing, I want to add the title (and link to) the most recent post for each site. ==

What theme are you using? Change to bp-default theme because the title and link to the most recent post for each subsite within a WP multisite installation with BuddyPress activated is there in Blogs Directory called by “ == Latest Post: The title of the post with link to the post.

have u tried this plugin?

@djbnotts – what are you using to redirect users?

David Carson (from Frisco)’s method has been working well for me – http://pastebin.com/rgJ6BQc8
You may want to try that… Just add !is_front_page() above !bp_is_register_page() and it will block all pages that are not home, register and activation pages from being viewed by loggedout users.

and to redirect them home, remove the /join from bp_core_redirect

@tiagobeloto in version 1 we had a ‘wire’ feature that enables a user to post on a friends profile… It was eventually depreciated but It’s been turned into a plugin by BuddyDev.

Here is the bp-wire for putting the Buddypress wire back to Buddypress 1.2

@Lindsayannb – Essentially what you would want to do is utilise the built in “search_terms” parameter (which your already using for the profile fields links) and modifying the searchterm based on what is selected via the dropdown menu – https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-members-loop/

Haven’t looked indepth into this specific loop yet, (and i’m not sure if it will work on a directory page) but their is a profile field loop which might help… (https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-profile-data-loop-bp_has_profile/)
