@r-a-y

I’m going to try your suggest .diff patch this morning…

Any solution to the
tag not taken by firefox in latest plugin modificaiton with WordPress 2.9.2 and Buddypress 1.2.3?

@yansony This is a pretty cricital plugin for many users, is the plugin working for you as it is designed to? I have tried many times with no success? Would you mind sharing your website, can we see it in action?

sure
https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-activity-stream-loop/

set the action to new_blog_post, object to groups, primary_id to the group_id

Let me see if I can’t help out here… both plugins in question require theme edits and only built against the default theme – so there might be discrepancies if you use something else.

Remember the activity stream takes an excerpt copy of the content (forum topic, post, blog comment) for its own use. This is why there is confusing/division of conversations. IMHO – I would either disable activity stream commenting for forum topics/post/blogs or edit the activity/entry.php theme file

Activity as Blog Comments:
This will replace the wp-comment system and only use the activity stream as your blog commenting system. for an example: http://etivite.com/2010/04/what-does-it-mean/ (while still retaining the regular wp-comment for admins or whatever wp_cap you set it as).

BuddyPress Forums Extras – Activity (subplugin)
Will only display a link that expands when clicked to show the tagged activity stream content for a given new_forum_post. for example: http://etivite.com/groups/test-group/forum/topic/one-more/ and click on “View Activity Replies to this Post” No syncing of data from the activity stream back into the forum.

A new plugin is in the works ( with the help of @r-a-y ) that will hopefully address this issue: Activity as Discussions – though i’ve been a bit slow on my end to wrap it up.

Plugin IDEA : Using buddypress as email client. If your profile is http://www.domainame.com/yourname, then your email is yourname@domainame.com… Anyone want to try?

I don’t imagine it would be related to the WordPress version… but you never know. One thing I find confusing is the instruction to replace the “activitycomments” folder in the default theme. BuddyPress 1.2.4.1 does not have such a folder in it’s default theme.

You need a lot of memory for a buddypress on a wpmu/wp install.
Get some more. Try 64 or 128.

If your have a big community your gonna need a lot either way.

We just posted a major new beta that we’d like people to help us test.

https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-album/forum/topic/new-bp-album-version-download-and-test/

Also, now that Google’s sponsoring us, we’ll be adding support for almost every imaginable content type over the next couple of months.

Thanks!

I think it’s time you tried the latest BP Album+ beta…

https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-album/forum/

With regards to the concerns in your blog post, the reason the BP Album+ team appears to be making “slow” progress isn’t because we’re working on it part-time. Indeed, between our members in Canada, Italy, and our other contributors, the plugin is literally being coded 24 hours per day.

It’s because we’re designing something that runs solidly and can do what people want it to do.

Take for example group image galleries for forums. Sure, we could do a crappy job and have that added sometime in the next 8 hours. Like certain other developers. But if we’re adding that functionality, I think it needs to handle cases like:

-Users that are members of the group, but cannot upload images.
-Limiting number of photos a group member can upload based on role.
-Hiding uploaded images until an administrator approves them
-Sorting images within the group album by member that uploaded them
-Handling images contributed to the group by members that are suspended / kicked out of the group / deleted from the site
-Pushing group images to the latest images and latest group feeds, and then having them properly link back to the gallery.
-Hooks for monetization options. Only the small version of image is uploaded to group album. Full version costs money.

And so on.

But you see, if you don’t plan this stuff ahead of time you can’t add a lot of those features in the future because you’ve jammed yourself into a corner. Because the permalinks to the images are in the activity streams and if you move the images you’ll break the links. We’ve spent a huge amount of effort building a plugin core that solves these problems.

Anyways, go download the beta and post some feedback in the BP Album+ forum.

Thanks!

We’re adding video embed to BP Album+ as part of our Google Summer of Code sponsorship. For the latest updates, check out the BP Album+ forum here:

We’ve just released a beta that’s a huge update over 0.1.7 and could really use some help testing it.

Thanks!

This looks interesting…I will definitely try my hand on this soon and try to contribute here…as heavy weight buddypress Apps do have speed issue, I have come across situations where loading time is an issue and this will help…

Help me to understand some of the trac lingo… What is a .diff vs. A .patch? @r-a-y. Thanks for your help.

@pisanojm – Did you try the 2nd patch by cnorris?
https://trac.buddypress.org/attachment/ticket/2203/2203.002.diff

That one appears to have all the right fixes!

Well, whomp there it is! Thanks @johnjamesjacoby

@intimez

Sorry Please, note I posted in wrong message above. I was referring to timestamp message issue in ticket 2203 found here:
https://trac.buddypress.org/attachment/ticket/2203/bp-messages-classes.patch NOT ticket 2405

Did you look at the BuddyPress Plugins.. There is a nice BP LIKE plugin already done…

You are right, I went to general settings and there it was. I like the fact that if someone wants to comment they have to get to the original post, but I get that everything should be on sync. Thanks @Pisanojm.
