I just downloaded a copy of buddypress from the ‘Manual Download’ button on https://buddypress.org/download/ and it was the same as my svn link above.
If your file is different, then there may be other files that are also different!
voted x3 on this too!
The other thing I was thinking about looking at was this….
http://stescodes.com/invitefriends.aspx
a one-off payment but I’m unsure how complex it would be to integrate…when I asked the developer about buddypress/wordpress they said;
“It is very easy to integrate our code, we provide sample code in working condition. Once you run the code by settings the API configuration based on your account, you will be able to integrate with your code easily.
Furthermore, we provide developer guide documentation and also tutorial videos too.
Note: Please let us know if you need any help or further details.”
….not much info lol!
I didn’t feel this would work as a ticket as not directly related to the project but would like to get core dev and community feedback if possible.
I plan on working on a html5, mobile first responsive version of BuddyPress default. Ideally this would be a ground up theme taking the styling but redoing a lot of the styles.
Other ideas could be build in some simple theme options like Twenty-Eleven does. This was something @modemlooper suggested and is a cracking feature I think. I would like to underline this would not be a framework that is not at all the aim in this.
I can’t see it being a suggestion for a patch to default as some styles will have to be changed and ideally this should be done form ground up to make mobile first and updated.
A few questions though:
– Core devs, would a theme like this be considered to go into core or should it be done with a view to go in the theme repo?
– A more community opinion question: Would it be better to do as in the style of default or as a Skeleton theme little to no styling more of a toolbox for designers/developers?
– To that matter if it does take all the styling but isn’t a child theme is this ok to do? Links to the theme would be made of course but checking. It would not be sold it is purely to give back to community.
Thanks aces, maybe i´m a little bit slow , but my /bp-themes/bp-default/header.php says just what I wrote before, I download another copy of buddypress to see if it was different but is the same file that I have described to you.
Should I copy the code that you send me, in my header.php file?
Thank you!
I just found a work around. I created the forum topic from within the group, which sidesteps the “which group” question and seems to have worked.
Same problem here. I must say I am getting very skeptical. I can’t have this kind of nonsense with users. Can someone lend a hand here? Thanks!
Oh dear, really? That sounds quite a flaw to me!
If a logged in user goes to register, they get redirected back to the mainpage.
If I log in as a user without a blo and go to mysite.com/blogs/create it does allow them to add one. But the problem is that in the my sites menu that then appears, they can see a link to the main site blog(which they cant acces, but even still its very confusing) as well as their own!
Surely it must be a very common occurence for a buddypress site member to want to add a blog, it seems very odd this is a problem?
Thanks
Jason
I have been setting up buddypress and have found that existing users can log in and see the “my sites” menu on their admin bar. However, if I create a new account and do not setup a blog on joining, there is no “my sites” link in the admin bar – so how do I make that appear, or allow users without a blog to add one?
Thanks.
Hi all,
I am planning an application in which I need users can add friends. But only a particular ROLE of users can add each other as friends.
For example : There is a ROLE called Professionals. Now all users with Professionals ROLE can add each other as friends but no other user can. But all users can follow professionals.
Now for following I have used BuddyPress Followers. But I am not able to simulate the 1st problem of selective friendship.
Any ideas..???
Here is another screencast with more information related to the issue: http://youtu.be/lcOd5H_fNws
Still not sure how to resolve the problem.
@charlesponraj did you get this to work finally? It didn’t work for me too
@DJPaul I also found out that when I favorite a forum post it will not show up in my favorites under my profile. I think definitely bbpress isn’t connected correctly. If you find anything I would appreciate it.
in the bp-default header ( should be line 46 – 48 )
`
false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘bp_dtheme_main_nav’ ) ); ?>
`
replace it in your child theme with something like
`
<?php
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘bp_dtheme_main_nav’ ) );
} else {
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘secondary-menu’, ‘fallback_cb’ => false ) );
}
?>
`
as it is the last parameter, I don’t think false has a comma after it in this context….
Make sure you back up before any edits in case something goes wrong!
nb: to use code on buddypress.org put backticks ` (normally above tab key) before and after…
so to clarify: in my header.php (child theme) replace..
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘bp_dtheme_main_nav’ ) );
with:
<?php
if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ” ) );
} else {
wp_nav_menu( array( ‘container’ => false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘secondary-menu’, ‘fallback_cb’ => false,
}
?>
I’ve just checked my header.php and it appears to be worded slightly differently actually..? for example:
false, ‘menu_id’ => ‘nav’, ‘theme_location’ => ‘primary’, ‘fallback_cb’ => ‘bp_dtheme_main_nav’ ) ); ?>
Can you check your server log for php or other errors?
ie9 developer tools ‘console’ also shows a lot of errors on that particular page…..
@dude Yeah…i tried deactivating all the plugins…but it didnt worked…..
@aces ….i increased the space limit…but it sometimes shows a blank page….
@SBrajesh I tried the codes you gave, but
I got an error when put in echo:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method DateTime::diff() in /home/dom/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/functions.php on line 377
Line 377 is this – $diff= $current_date_time->diff($dob);//returns DateInterval object
Any idea how to correct that?
Thanks.
Hi folks,
I’m brand new to BuddyPress, so please forgive the nood question. After installing BP on my site I found that the text on the selected tab (Activity/ Profile/ Messages/ etc) would appear white. As the background of the selected tab is also white, the text can’t be read.
I’d like to change the colour of the text but I can NOT find out where the code I need to change is. I tried looking via the Inspect Element option in Google Chrome and also searched the net, but couldn’t find the info.
If someone could point me to where the code is located I need to change in order to edit the tab text it would be much appreciated.
I’ve also got the BuddyPress Template Pack and Suffusion BuddyPress Pack plugins installed.
Thanks in advance.
Hi all, new here 
If you look at the page “Who is already using it?” you can see that http://www.h-mag.com/ use buddypress. But if I go in to that site and right-click and look in the source I can not see the word “buddypress” anywhere. Shouldn’t I see wp-content/plugins/buddypress somewhere in the source?
How can you know if a site using buddypress if you not can see the word “buddypress” in the source code?
@liesl1698 paste it in your theme’s functions.php
Hi everyone ! I’m using my theme instead of default buddypress. However, members search box in the activate page is overlaying my theme. I would like to lower it a bit in order to get aligned it. Can someone help me please ?
