Instead of using twitter or fb to register or login to buddypress, is there a plugin available similar to those created by @otto42 that will work with google+
Topic: Security issues
I am just wondering if Buddypress has a specific way to approach security issues. If not, should we use a WordPress security plugin? Which plugin should be the best option then?
Thank you so much for ideas.
Thanks @DJPaul for the reply, that’s what I thought as well that it worked right out of the box. I tested the groups with forums with another install I had and those would post on the activity stream. But neither install would show the blog mentions or blog comments.
Thanks again
Yes, the infamous “There was an error saving group details. Please try again” when attempting to create groups appeared on my Buddypress installation. I’ve searched for a fix for this error for probably 2days to no avail in these forums and in Google. After teetering on the borderline of insanity and after a bunch of var_dumps and searching, I was able to locate the issue and fix it (for my site at least
).This may be different depending on your site and installation, but it is something to take a look at;
In the file wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-groups/bp-groups-classes.php, take a look at your data inserts starting somewhere around line 98;
In the original /bp-groups-classes.php file, there is/are only 7 table columns defined, see below
$sql = $wpdb->prepare(
“INSERT INTO {$bp->groups->table_name} (
creator_id,
name,
slug,
description,
status,
enable_forum,
date_created
) VALUES (
%d, %s, %s, %s, %s, %d, %s
)”,
$this->creator_id,
$this->name,
$this->slug,
$this->description,
$this->status,
$this->enable_forum,
$this->date_created
);Depending on what plugins you may be using, this file may have changed and been modified to include additional table columns. In my particular issue, I noticed that there was a “details” column that was added by one of my plugins, when this happened the number of columns changed, but there was never a new format value added for that column.
(For those of you who are not coders and are not sure what format values are, those are those little “%d” or “%s” values. They basically tell the database what kind of info are in those columns; d – data, s – string, or f – float. For more information read over this page http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/wpdb, and possibly read up on data types in PHP.)
To fix my issue, I simply added another format value and I was able to submit successfully without any issues. If you are running into this problem, I would suggest taking a look at this file and comparing it to a default Buddypress file to see what changed, and then make the necessary modifications.
Hope this helps someone and is useful information.
Cool, glad it worked out for you
Method 1 works all the time for all WP themes, while method 2 works for some WP themes depending on HTML structure.
Method 2 in short, uses the WP functions available for themes. Look at /activity/index.php and you’ll see header(‘buddypress’), sidebar(‘buddypress’) and footer(‘buddypress’) in the template files. If there’s a header-buddypress.php, in the WP/BP theme folder, then the BP template file would use header-buddypress.php. If there’s none, then the BP template file would use header.php by default.
TMA works with either method 1 or method 2. I gave the solution for method 2 because the HTML structure of TMA was suitable for that. Method 2 saves you from having to “fix alignment” for 16 BP template files again (which you have to do in method 1) when the BP Template Pack plugin is upgraded.
Topic: Register page not working?
I have used BuddyPress before ( http://musicapitol.com/ ) and had no problem with the pages when I created it. My most recent site however worked perfect except for the Register page. I know it was created in the install wizard for buddypress, but no button was on the minu and when i enter the url directly it redirects me to the home page. the website is http://elderscrollsfansite.com/ if you want to take a look.
Thanks so much

The problem is that while clicking on ALL MEMBERS, FOLLOWING or My FRIENDS or anyother tag….the activity updates are not loading fully and some times it ends up showing a blank page. sometimes it shows only few updates.
While clicking LOAD MORE it is not working even. Thats the reason why i removed this page.
I tried changing to default theme but didn’t worked. cleared cookies but, did not worked….
Is there any way clearing both the bugs…can anyone help me clearing the ACTIVITY STREAM and LOAD MORE bug
Thanks in advance…..
Hey all, I’m interested in implementing buddypress for a health and wellness community. Does anyone have experience running a Buddypress installation 20,000+ user accounts? I have done several buddypress installs, but most have been for user groups that are < 2,000 members. Folks who administrate larger communities, what kinds of numbers do these larger buddypress communities support? Thanks for any feedback!
