@raoul2 –
Yes, users will be able to turn off friend requests. The Component is pretty solid right now. I’m still waiting for BP 1.2.4 to come out. But, either way, look for the new beta release at the time of WordCamp Chicago or soon after.
The problem is the misalignment of the slide bar and ten where the controls do not appear when the active buddypressplugin
unconfigure the entire header.
Until the bar that lists the pages is different.
@M How do I retrieve the group id from within the activity-loop.php?

If you use localized version (`define (‘WPLANG’, ‘whatever_ROCKS’);`), comment it. Localization catalogs uses a lot of memory.

Actually 32 isn’t all that much. You’ll need more than that just running WP and say NextGEN Gallery (which is a gallery plugin). Now, the more plugins you have the higher your memory usage will be. I have 64mb on all my sites…
Instead for me it’s the only one that works very very well (and I have tried wp-fb-autocnnect, Gygia, simple fb connect, Facebook Connect to Adam Hupp, Faux Facebook Connect -only for comment- and others)!
The only ones that work (for me) are Gygia (but only if you have a normal WordPress installation) and BP-Facebook connect (there is a very little problem with logout redirect). And more, Bp-Facebook gets also the (facebook) email of user.
I don’t love its method to work, but it works.
I have Buddypress 1.2.3 and WordPress 3.0 beta 1 (network installation with subdirectory).
The very great problem that I have with Bp-Facebook (at the moment) is the incompatibility with WordPress MU Domain Mapping: if my secondary blog mantains subdirectory url, BP-facebook works (too well).
But if I change a subdirectory url with a primary url (example.com/secondaryblog to secondaryblog.com) it goes crazy.
And this is a problem!
I hope Peatling update his plugin!
AH! @MariusOoms the Work Around for Sub Domains Worked!
Looking forward to the Latest Info, Permanent Resolutions, and Developments.

Hola y gracias @nickmy !!,
I’ve been working hard on deellas.com, but It’s a work in progress.
1. No plugins are used in this section. What do you mean ? What for ? Just ordinary posts with youtube URL custom fields.
2. It’s a bbpress external installation (out of BuddyPress, firstly we tried to integrate both, but It was a mess, eventually we decided to install them separately)
FB will be turning off FB-Connect !
@nonegiven did you ever resolve your group-blog issue?
I had the same warning messages after installing some other plugins that were not WPmu compatible.
After Deleting these erroneous plugins, we were able to delete the warning messages at least.
However @MariusOoms we are still having issues with group blog creation that you may be able to assist with.
We installed Only the latest Buddypress and Groupblog Plugins in a test site.
We are able to create Groups just fine,
but are still getting this error in the Group Blog Tab…
Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in E:TESTSITEwp-includeswp-db.php on line 488
Any ideas on what we may have overlooked or what we should look into and address to resolve this error.
Please let me know.
Your good assistance is greatly appreciated.

hihi problem solved,. i found it..
just uncheck Disable BuddyPress filters in debug option..
thanks brother,. 
@mercime
Snap! That worked (didn’t occur to me to try that one). I really do have to bone up on what all these actions do…
Thanks Mercime
@pcwriter
Thanks very much for this – the plugin works perfectly.
Thanks for your posts ^ ^
I’m finally getting round to setting up a private buddy press site.
I liked the looks of @Travel-Junkie‘s solution, but I’m having the same problem as @wordpresschina, I’m getting a infinite redirect loop. It seems that functions like bp_is_register_page() and bp_is_home() aren’t working correctly from @Travel-Junkie‘s function.
I changed it a little to:
function sh_walled_garden()
{
global $bp;
$uri = $_SERVER;
$allowed_uris[] = ”;
$allowed_uris[] = ‘/’;
for ($i=0; $i < count($allowed_uris); $i++) {
if ($allowed_uris[$i] === $uri) {
return;
}
}
if( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
bp_core_redirect( $bp->root_domain);
}
}
add_action( ‘get_header’, ‘sh_walled_garden’ );
Where the $allowed_uris array is set by the programmer to allow access to certain public pages. If the user isn’t logged in and they are trying to access a private page, then they will be redirected to the home page (as that page will be public in my site setup and I don’t want people to be able to register through a sign up page.)
I’ll have to see how I get on with this solution for now…
Thanks for your help
@pcwriter move do_action( ‘bp_nav_items’ ); sorry can’t add code here … to right after the li of Community links
I don’t see what the problem is. If you’re talking about the Query slider then I would post a couple more blog posts with pictures. It looks like the theme needs at least 3 blog posts with images for the image-slider to work correctly.
Use the plugin that says autoconnect. It works great and is coded with BP in mind. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-fb-autoconnect/
@David Lewis
Thanks again for a great bit of code!
You wouldn’t happen to have an idea as to how to exclude from the navbar the “auto-generated” tabs from plugins such as BP-Links or BP-Gallery, and include them also in the dropdown, now would you?
@grosbouff For the purpose of your plugin, bp_profile_group_has_fields gets in the way. The purpose of bp_profile_group_has_fields in the default theme, is that it will skip over any group of fields that have no values filled in when inside the profile loop.
I think what you want to use is bp_field_has_data().
I also don’t think that this is a bug. All of those functions are doing exactly what is expected.
Can you explain in more detail what you need these functions to do?
@gtn
To exclude any WP page from the navbar, try this plugin:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/exclude-pages/
To add links to your footer, simply edit your child theme’s footer.php file.
Haha! Yours was a better answer!
@deltina –
Thanks for the compliment.
@arxpoetica –
I can see that you are passionate about this issue. It is good to see more people raise the banner of distributed open source social networks. Do you have much experience with Semantic Web protocols?
__________
An update on what I’ve been doing with regards to this issue:
I’ve been holding secret, high-level discussions in my ancient, giant sloth cave about how the BP community should go about implementing SemWeb protocols in BuddyPress. Well, it seems like I’ve been in a cave as it has been difficult to get people excited about the prospects of bringing the Semantic Web to BP as most do not yet understand the benefits. Fortunately, there is a small but growing group of people that are excited, that do understand the virtues of semantifying BP. @DJPaul and I plan to look into the best approaches to tackle the overall issue of BP semantification. He has also attracted another developer to join the cause.
There are more people starting to take interest as well. I spent part of today discussing with Henry Story the prospects of using BuddyPress as a test case platform for brining a solid Semantic Web implementation to an open source social networking project. One of the first projects might be a SSO (single sign on) plugin using WebIDs.
So, strides are being made, albeit small ones at this time. It is not clear whether WP / BP can be crafted to become a fully-functioning distributed social networking platform but it is the best place to start.
@rgauny, the BuddyPress.org theme is a custom child theme of 1.2 bp-default theme by Andy Peatling. As for other components and subnavs, you can already get most of them by just enabling such after you activate BuddyPress and creating a BP child theme or using a regular WP theme and installing BP Template Pack plugin. There are features in this site which might be released soon.
edit- oops @jeffsayre I took too long to answer
