I almost have it down, but I’m still working on it. I am developing it as a plugin of sorts, though I never planned on releasing it, so it’s not entirely compatible all around. I can send you both what I’ve got so far and I’d love to collaborate with either of you to turn this into a real plugin.
Basically, I set up a value for groups to see if the group should be moderated, then if they are moderated all new posts get the meta value of pending. I then filter the activity stream to exclude activities which have that meta value, unless it’s an admin, in which case they get a link to approve it.
All is pretty well, though I’m still struggling with filtering the activity in the most efficient way. You can download what I’m working on here: http://pastebin.com/239ZjLLq. You can also add this to style posts that need to be moderated.
`.activity-list li.pending {
background-color: #FF9;
}
.activity-list li.pending .moderation {
float: right;
}`
Remember, it’s a work in progress and may not work out of the box on your install. I’ll answer any questions if I can though. Like I said, I’d really like to collaborate and make this a useful plugin.
Okay, all the DB info matches up with the wp-config.php.
Install BuddyPress first.
Activate your Evolve theme.
Install and activate BP Template Pack plugin to make your WP Evolve theme compatible with BuddyPress.
Go through the BP Compatibility Process – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/
Before installating BuddyPress – https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/#system-server
I’m coming across the same barrier… Pulling the group image at different sizes is fine, however when you try and modify the group avatar size from the group admin perspective, it get’s a bit tricky. Try and upload and small icon for a group and you will notice it puts the little logo on a black background and resizes it akwardly.
Looking for something to hook onto to modify this setting and I can’t see anything pertaining to size in the BP template set
`
<input type="submit" name="upload" id="upload" value="” />
‘delete_group_avatar’, ‘component’ => ‘groups’, ‘wrapper_id’ => ‘delete-group-avatar-button’, ‘link_class’ => ‘edit’, ‘link_href’ => bp_get_group_avatar_delete_link(), ‘link_title’ => __( ‘Delete Avatar’, ‘buddypress’ ), ‘link_text’ => __( ‘Delete Avatar’, ‘buddypress’ ) ) ); ?>
<img src="” id=”avatar-to-crop” class=”avatar” alt=”” />
<img src="” id=”avatar-crop-preview” class=”avatar” alt=”” />
<input type="submit" name="avatar-crop-submit" id="avatar-crop-submit" value="” />
<input type="hidden" name="image_src" id="image_src" value="” />
`
Any thoughts on how to modify size, right from the upload process?
Good. See if you have the bb-config.php you should have at the root of your WP install and check if necessary DB information is correct in bb-config.php
According to the link, these should be in my database:
yourPrefix_bb_forums
yourPrefix_bb_meta
yourPrefix_bb_posts
yourPrefix_bb_terms
yourPrefix_bb_term_relationships
yourPrefix_bb_term_taxonomy
yourPrefix_bb_topics
Those are all present. 
@LavishDhand You have to join group first ; )
I know it’s a feature, but my current admin doesn’t have buddypress support… Wouldn’t that be a topic here?
(I’m using 3.3)
I want to discuss seeking some help and suggestions about my new BuddyPress site. I can’t post at forum. When I click on ‘Post new topic’ it redirects me to the community tab to read others’ topics!!! What should I do?

Can I add another groups in my child theme instead of more plugins like import the files from folder in bp-default’s groups into child-theme’s businesses?
@modemlooper
Is that possible add more User Groups as for Businesses Group?
Is there a ways how-to do it?
How would one go about getting the buddpyress links / notifications in the WP adminbar (3.3) like they have on this site?
I do not want the search bar though : /
Also, has anyone on this site figured out the style for the drop-downs for the admin bar? WordPress support is still lacking the answer…
Thanks @mercime that worked perfectly! I’m sure others have the same issue.
If it’s an issue with ticket and all, what’s the alternative to have a working child theme?
I saw the ticket it was last updated 5 months ago and mentions old versions of buddypress.
Is it possible that everyone is working without child theme? How do they manage when updates pop up like on the last days: WP 3.2.1 to 3.3 and BP 1.5 to 1.5.2
I really need some direction because I have the changes to BP default theme waiting to be done.
PLEASE????
Unless there is a specific plugin for this purpose in the wp plugin directory, otherwise you’ll need to code your own.
You could hook on bp_activity_posted_update
then perform a count and compare to your set threshold of activity updates prior to adding the permissions to the userdata. ( if you look at the member profile stats plugin – there is a function called etivite_bp_member_profile_stats_get_member_status_count() – which pulls only activity_updates )
I’m doing some initial information gathering to ensure my installation and setup of BuddyPress goes smoothly. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of information out there that seems out dated, ie references to MU version of WordPress, etc. The question I have is whether or not I need to install “BuddyPress Template Pack” prior to installing the core BuddyPress plugin. I use a theme called EvoLve Pro by Theme4Press. Thanks in advance for your support!

nice , this is very needed feature , I am using @modemlooper code and it is working perfect , but it can’t work with different types of groups (I have 2-3 types of groups) pls try to create it with sets of templates for specific groups , for example if you have groups of photographers , you can create set of fields for photographers , if you have groups of model agencies , be able to create set of fields for model agencies (are different than photographers) and then every model agency will only click for their specific model agency group and will fill out their model agencies group form.
I am building a social networking site on buddypress and need done today. This buddypress plugin is more like a maze to me.
If someone can assist I would appreciate it!
How do I set up the registration? I click the registration page and it brings me to a blank page…and I am afraid of manually setting it up and find out it didnt work with buddypress..or S2 membership plugin…
Also, I need to have people be able to do the following:
-Chat with other logged in users (I tried buddy ajax chat, but everytime I install it it messed up the whole site..nothing loads)
-A Chat Roulette page (even if its embedding some html from the net)
-a sort of chat room page with web cam capabilities
-and is it possible to do a Hot or Not sort of function?
Any sort of advice or recommendation is incredibly appreciated!
