    I’ve noticed that the creators of this awesome tool have given up. Anyone care to take a stab at this? This would fix a search problem I’ve been having.

    Currently, the only Program that seems to have worked in the past for this is BP Profile Search, which has not been tested or updated for the new WP. I think BuddyPress and/or it’s volunteer plugin programmers should develop a plugin to support multiple search options.

    I suggest that you should be able to search by fields. For example:

    A user chooses the following fields from 2 dropdown menus, and enters their zipcode for their profile information.

    Profile Type: User
    Focus: Looking for Friends
    Location: 93001

    Someone should be able to find this user by selecting the matching values from their respective drop down menu search fields (“Profile Type” and “Focus”) and typing in the zipcode for their search.

    Right now there seem to be a lot of alternative methods, none of which will work for me, so I suggested it here. Here’s hoping :)

    @boonebgorges Hello, I am working with a user on our theme forum with this same issue. I have replicated it, my support user informs me that this started to happen when he update Java, as in Sun Java…not sure how this relates to javascript if it does but may be a way for you to replicate this issue. What I am finding is that the read more link does not populate itself so it just stays as […]

    I am not sure what exchanges the […] with Read More but I think that is what is broken. I would be happy to help you to replicate this issue. Let me know what I can do to help you troubleshoot this issue.
    Thanks!

    thank for the tip @etivite . I have searched and googled till my head was spinning, there is NO solution for it yet!

    The issue is asked again and again and again, and still no real solution. The only thing I have found which filters out the non-friend activity but also blocks your own! is this one:

    http://wpmu.org/create-a-better-community-experience-with-the-new-buddypress-friends-only-activity-stream-plugin/

    As for th bp_has_activities you can’t really use it as it only accepts ONE single parameter (for ex.
    if ( bp_has_activities( ‘scope=friends’) [which means own posts, groups, etc will be out!] and as you said is completely messing up the “load” function by the occasion. So you definitely can NOT call that a solution.

    You say it has been covered before, I’d rather say it has been asked again and again but when you search through all those posts you’ll see they all end either unanswered or after people desperately try to figure it out somehow, gets abandoned as no one found the way to solve it. ANd there was not even ONE single post from some of the developers who know best how buddypress is built.

    We can try and try and break our heads, but if after 2 years none of us managed 2 find a solution, isn’t it time for a specialist to look into it?

    We need just as on other social networks the possibility to have own posts (incl comments) combined with friends’ posts (also incl. commenst) on one single page/wall and only visible for friends.

    All social networks do that these days, only buddypress not …. :-(

    http://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-groups-loop/

    I wanted to show list of all groups in the sidebar of the Profile page but the list was being filtered, returning only groups that this user is a member of.

    I fixed it by adding the following parameter:

    `bp_has_groups( ‘user_id=false’ )`

    The codex states that user_id is false by default but I had to set. Is the codex incorrect?

    I’m still using BP 1.2.9 so perhaps the codex is correct for 1.5?

    Anyway, I hope this helps someone.

    Hello BuddyPress Community,

    I had previously created a function that would reorder the nav items on a single group display page, but it was broken by a recent BuddyPress upgrade.

    Can anybody recommend a revision to this function that might cause it to work within the new BuddyPress environment?

    `function bbg_change_group_tab_order() {
    global $bp;

    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’10’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’20’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’30’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’40’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’50’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’60’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’70’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’80’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’90’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’93’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’96’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’97’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’98’;
    $bp->bp_options_nav = ’99’;
    }
    add_action( ‘wp’, ‘bbg_change_group_tab_order’);`

    I already noticed that if I change the action from ‘wp’ to ‘bp_group_options_nav’ then it is at least firing off in what seems to be the correct location – just before the group navigation is output. Unfortunately it seems as though the bp_options_nav array is now different than it was before.

    Thank you very much for any help you can offer.

    Looks like you have not completed Step 3 of the BP Compatibility process – https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#tplfiles

    In your case, you have to use the first method – i.e. changing 16 BP template files – to fix alignments and spacing – per your questions #1 and #2 above.

    Download the 6 BP folders transferred to your Memo theme folder in server down to your computer hard drive. Starting from activity/index.php, open this file and make the following changes:

    At the very top of the file, replace:
    `

    `

    with [UPDATED replaced hentry-content with entry-content]
    `

    `

    at the very bottom of the activity/index.php file, replace
    `

    `

    with
    `

    `

    Save file and continue with replace the same with the remaining 15 files.

    For registration.php, replace the bottom area
    `

    jQuery(document).ready( function() {
    if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
    jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();

    jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
    jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
    });
    });

    `

    with [Updated this whole block]

    `

    jQuery(document).ready( function() {
    if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
    jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();

    jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
    jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
    });
    });

    `

    Save and upload folders to theme folder

    NEVERMIND – For those who run into this issue, just do the following:

    Just delete the page you are using for the Groups Page, add a new page, link it to the Groups Directory in the BuddyPress options, and it fixes it. Seems somewhat self explanatory but this issue was unresolved in a few topics.

    Apologies in advance for the wall of text.

    I’m working on a heavily customized site that’s being reworked to include BuddyPress. I was brought on to this project several months after it started, and I don’t have access to the original developer. I’ve been able to integrate BP fine, fixing bugs as they came up, with one exception: the activity stream isn’t working quite right when using AJAX.

    Here’s an outline of what’s happening:

    User Profile > Activity > Personal: On first page load, displays only that user’s activity and obeys whichever drop-down filter was last chosen. Using the drop-down to change/remove the filter sends the request through AJAX and displays a response, but the response is no longer unique to that user. The drop-down filter is obeyed, but it displays applicable activity from every registered user.

    User Profile > Activity > Mentions: Correct on page load, then it’s no longer user-specific after choosing a different filter. It also ignores the “Mentions” scope and loads all activity from all users that fits the filter.

    User Profile > Activity > Friends: Same as Personal tab. On page load it is correctly displaying activity from that user’s friends, after choosing a filter it includes all users.

    This website has passed through so many different hands for over a year, and as such the code is very complex and custom. BP Template Pack v1.1.3 was originally used as the basis for any BuddyPress templates in the theme. I’m not looking for someone to fix my problem for me, I’m just looking for any input anyone has on AJAX activity stream requests and exactly how the query works. I get lost after tracing it back through the 6th or 7th theme/plugin file. I’m also confused as to why the “bp-activity-scope” cookie is always set to null on a fresh BP install using the default BP theme, and somehow the Mentions/Friends/etc. scopes still work.

    Side note that may or may not be part of the problem: I’m using `wp-admin/admin-ajax.php` for the `ajaxurl` variable instead of `wp-load.php` (the BP default). I couldn’t get AJAX to work at all using `wp-load.php`.

    Does anyone have any insight?

    Website information is below.

    1. WordPress version: 3.2.1
    2. WordPress is installed on a subdomain, and is not multisite
    3. WordPress is installed in root
    4. This issue happened long after upgrading to 3.2.1 (i.e. upgrade to 3.2.1 isn’t relevant to issue)
    5. WordPress was functioning properly before adding BuddyPress
    6. BuddyPress version: 1.5
    7. Since I started on this project, I’ve upgraded BP to 1.5. The issue wasn’t discovered until long after the upgrade, but it wasn’t being tested for right away, so it’s possible the upgrade caused the problem.
    8. Active plugins:

    Advertising Manager v3.4.19
    Akismet v2.5.3
    BuddyPress v1.5
    BuddyPress Activity Plus v1.2.1.9
    BuddyPress Album v0.1.8.11
    BuddyPress Template Pack v1.1.3
    Disqus Comment System v2.66
    Front-end Editor v2.1.3
    Google Analyticator v6.1.3
    Gravity Forms v1.5.2.8
    Gravity Forms + Custom Post Types v2.1
    Image Widget v3.2.8
    Members v0.2
    Quick Flickr Widget v1.2.10
    Regenerate Thumbnails v2.2.0
    W3 Total Cache v0.9.2.4
    WordPress Importer v0.5

    9. The site’s theme is heavily customized, with template files from bp-template-pack version 1.1.3
    10. No WordPress core files have been modified, but one modification has been made to BP core files
    11. There are a lot of custom functions in bp-custom.php
    12. The site is not running bbPress
    13. This error appears in the log when I trigger the issue (I need to obscure domain & IP address):

    2011/11/09 17:19:20 [crit] 20565#0: *6552 connect() to unix:/tmp/php-cgi.socket failed (2: No such file or directory) while connecting to upstream, client: 67.***.**.2, server: domain.com, request: “POST /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php HTTP/1.1”, upstream: “fastcgi://unix:/tmp/php-cgi.socket:”, host: “prod.domain.com”, referrer: “http://prod.domain.com/members/abarrett/”

    So, I posted this on the WordPress forum a couple of days ago without a response. I am confident they’re really busy but maybe someone on the Buddypress site knows the answer given the continual testing and improvements? Below is what I posted:

    I would test the latest Beta with my iPad if I had greater access to my host’s server. :-(

    Anyway, it is my understanding from the company, TinyMCE, that the latest version of TinyMCE includes all of the necessary modifications that will allow it to work on iOS 5. Does anyone know if the latest WordPress Beta include the iOS 5 compatible version of TinyMCE? Thanks!

    I recently installed ‘sitewide forums’ on my buddypress website under development.
    I have been trying to find a way to install a different theme for this sitewide forum but cant find anything.
    At all places it is mentioned that when you go to your bbpress forum, you will see an ‘Admin’ link, click on it and then you will be able to change the theme. But I cant see any ‘Admin’ link when I visit the forums and there is also no option to select a different theme for forum in the forums setting page:

    http://mysite/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbpress

    Is the sitewide forum installed through buddypress different then the bbpress installation? Are we supposed to see the admin link here too? Is there a way to change the theme for the forums?

    Please help!

    The wording needs to be changed, or activation needs to happen after step 4. This is a major oversight, right from installation. I hope my users dont encounter such problems after I build my website. Clean design though. My second impressions of it are positive.

    Group forums allow forum discussions to be group-specific. Is that too vapid an answer?

    Groups are more than just forums. They allow other kinds of collaboration. Take http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/digital-humanities-initiative/ for example. In addition to forums, they have an Announcement space, a shared Files upload space, a shared blog.

    As I suggested above, if you find a given feature “confusing and all over the place”, you should shut that feature off. Not everyone needs every feature turned on, and not every feature makes sense for every application.

    Sorry if this is a really dumb question but I can’t really find the answer I have looked for.

    I already have a wp-multisite installation live. It has several hundred members with blogs, a directory (directorypress) and a download store (estore).

    I want to add a contributable gallery to my network, where members can add galleries and rate other members photos etc. I cannot find a way to do this using standard wordpress plugins, but I have been told there is functionality to do this may exist using buddypress.

    My question is – can I just add buddypress and its plugins to my existing multisite? Will all the existing blogs still be as they are now etc? Or would adding buddypress now be incompatible?

    Thanks. What about using groups and forums together? What’s the point of that?

    So you go to a group and see a bunch of status updates, then you see a button for the forum which goes to a bunch of forum posts. All are presumably under the same overall topic. It just seems so confusing and all over the place.

    I am facing a little problem as I have installed buddypress with a custom theme and I cannot locate the file from which to remove the default wordpress sidebar which is appearing even on the buddypress profile page.

    I have tried to make all pages related with buddypress to appear as full width without sidebars but nothing makes the profile page to not show the sidebar.

    I noticed that this is happening for all those links for which there is no page associated with. I would also like to know how to switch back to the default buddypress theme.

    But this still relies on the user knowing they need to @someone.

    What I want is that when ever someone mentons another user by referencing their name only, it does the @mention function.

    Not having to type @someone is far more intuitive. Just type someone instead.

    Much more betterer…. ;P

    i can offer a bit more information here, and i’m impressed that buddypress has kept this thread alive. it’s clear that this thread has a lot of value for the survival of bp in it, and it’s also clear, at least to me, that there are a good number of caring people trying, essentially, to help bp “survive.”

    if you download free software, does that make you a beggar?

    if you get a 2nd muffin free at a coffee shop, how would you feel if the shopkeeper said “beggars can’t be choosers” and just gave you a second muffin with a bite already taken out of it? then said: hey man, if you don’t like it, bake your own, no one forcing you to eat your free muffin you know.

    what we’ve bought into, and what bp has “sold” to us, is: “social networking in a box.” we, as a culture, have experienced how awesome it is when people get together and work for the common good. we see your slogans “all the features you love in 6 minutes flat,” and we go “rock on!” power to the people, way to go buddypress! it’s the information revolution waaahooo!

    it’s a big promise bp is making, and i’d like to know if you really look at downloaders of bp as “beggars.” do you really?

    many “buy into” the bp promise and are more than willing to help in any way they know how, as long as they get help with the parts that they don’t know how to do.

    that one is pretty critical: many are more than willing to help in any way they know how, as long as they get help with what they don’t know how to do.

    for example: i paid for my artistic education as a documentation and training professional and an “end user advocate” (which you can tell eh?).

    as a result, i have documented extremely complex software, have dug deep into code, have consulted on code commenting procedures — and i’ve also put together guides for non-english speaking factory workers to put together electronics (so basically a picture-based guide).

    so, here i am, and basically, with 20 years off and on hard-core tech documentation experience, i can say: i can dern near explain anything to anyone in a clear and understandable way. but, in order to do so, i need something called a “subject matter expert.”

    and that, in this situation, would be “you guys.”

    i have repeated multiple times: i am happy to document, but i need to be shown.

    the benefit to me: functioning websites. the benefit to you: great documentation. what you give me: code, procedures, and a consistently functional and kind environment in which to receive answers to my questions (which will likely all be about functionality).

    the benefit to the community: more and more people install bp and can actually use it.

    the “BuddyPress Story” web-wide has been “i had high hopes and spent sleepless nights because i wanted to create a site for [passionX, missionY, businessZ, businessIdeaN] and basically, eventually, i gave up.”

    the failing that i see here on the part of buddypress is:
    not giving its community access to the “parts of the puzzle” that individuals don’t know how to do in exchange for the parts of the puzzle they do know how to do.

    do you honestly find it appropriate to call someone who downloads free software a “beggar?”

    what criteria must a person fill in order not to be a “beggar” in the bp community?

    that’s all i can contribute for today.

    it has been covered before – you’ll need to filter on bp_has_activities (search the forum on this term and you’ll find some examples) and then loop over the array and unset which activities do not meet your requirement. not ideal and may mess up ‘load more/pagination’

    Hi,
    Great software! I am not able to find where to change the code to get rid of the date stamp on posts and under avatars. I found a couple of instances of ‘by’ where I could get rid of the info on the single posts page, but it was still there on the front page. And I want to remove the date as well from the front page.

    Any suggestions?
    Thanks. The site is http://www.associationoffineartists.org.uk

    PS am using the up-to-date WP and Buddypress, just downloaded.

    Ah. Looks like your permalinks use index.php as a prefix. I don’t think BuddyPress works well with those. I don’t know if anyone has a workaround for this particular issue until we fix it in BuddyPress.

    How do I get my bp-adminbar-account-menu to work?
    The only thing that works is “logout” I’ve tried fixing this problem on my own for months now.
    The “view profile” button on the member pics does nothing either, only redirects to the home page. I’m using a child-theme, but I don’t think the problem is there. I’ve tried switching to the default buddypress theme and still have no luck fixing the issue. I would be extremely grateful if someone could help me with this.
