Is there anyway to order forums in alphabetical order in the drop down? I have over 2000 groups so the list is LONG! Thanks 
For that to work as intended, you also need to set WP_LANG in your wp-config.php and load a nBb_NO translation for WordPress.
You’re best to send a support request in to your host and ask them where the webserver/PHP error log is.
@ericreynolds007 Very interesting. I don’t know in detail how wp-minify works, but off the top of my head I’m at a bit of a loss for why minified JS would affect the download of items. Maybe wp-minify decides what to compress based on mime-type and thinks that the uploaded files are js/css? I’ll have a look at this one of these days – thanks for the heads up.
I´m getting a blank page also when trying to set up the forum part of the buddypress.
First i get this message:
http://yfrog.com/5sbuddy1j
Then i reinstall and follow the steps to come to this:
http://yfrog.com/0zbuddy2lj
As you can see, i cant make any groups or nothing in the setup, any suggestions what i can look for?
Regards
I’m sorry, I hate to sound like such a Noob, but I’m not sure where exactly to find the webserver log.
I host at Earthlink, if that’s any help….Thanks!
https://i18n.svn.buddypress.org/de_DE/tags/1.2/ -> For BuddyPress 1.2 (old!)
https://i18n.svn.buddypress.org/de_DE/branches/1.2/ -> For the BuddyPress 1.2.X series (1.2, 1.2.1, 1.2.2, etc) (current).
Maybe you will find this info from the Google SoC site interesting @derekbolden:

Title: Events Plugin for WordPress and BuddyPress
Abstract: Events have become an integral part of Social Networking; this plugin would also be useful for WordCamp.org – allowing people to handle WordCamp registration through the WordCamp site itself, etc.
This plugin will provide basic event functionality for plain vanilla WordPress installs and enhanced capabilities for BuddyPress installs by leveraging the new WordPress Custom post types and moving on from that.

Anyone tried using Posthaste Plugin or the TDO mini-forms with BP posting yet?
Hi!
plugins is great Thanks!
is there anyway to turn on and off email notification??
we want to move 40 old topics form one forum to another and.. well, i am sure members who posted them.. are no longer bothered
thanks
This is working now.
– Deaktivated and deleted BP.
– Reinstalled and activated BP.
– Hardcoded the language file in bp_core.php (replaced: buddypress-$locale with nb_NO.MO)
Not sure why BP wouldnt fetch the translation file.
Original post said: “Is it a user role issue? Right now I’m setting all my new users as “Author”.”
I think he’s looking for posting without going into wp-admin
@paulhastings0
Just use version 0.1.7, currently on the WordPress plugin repo. It’s reasonably stable and thousands of people are using it on their sites.
As for when version 0.1.9 will be ready for full scale distribution, that’s difficult to predict.
Software development is a nonlinear process. It’s not like we compile a list of features, know exactly how many lines of code each one will take, and then work through them at exactly X lines of code a day. Some days we make huge process, and other days we don’t get anything written because we’re researching something that isn’t working correctly.
Still, we have two programmers working all day every day on this plugin, and we’ve gone from zero to “pretty darned good” in less than 5 weeks. So if we can hold that rate of progress, we should have something “epic” reasonably soon.
I’ll see if I can post some screen caps later to show you guys what we’re working on.

Hi Boone. I’m not sure if it’s been mentioned to you before, but i just discovered that bb-attachments does not like WP-Minify. With Minify on, all of my image attachments wouldn’t show and when I attempted to download and view the images, any of my viewing apps informed me the images were corrupt.
After a few months of working with BP (with a good background in working with WP in general, and pretty strong HTML/CSS skills), I’m getting pretty comfortable. I’ve found the best for me has been to
a) set up a localhost install using WAMP or XAMPP that you can play with and wipe easily.
b) look at what other sites including this one have done, learn and understand how child themes work, try out new stuff with your own child themes, dig into the templates (and bp-core stuff) and see how it’s put together
c) look at the way plugins you like or think are rock solid are put together.
d) when you get stuck, ask questions here, the more specific the better.
For my part, my great weakness is in PHP. What I’ve learned, I’ve learned by fiddling, but basic concepts and stuff, well, let’s say that I fly by the seat of my pants. If working with PHP functions and actions and hooks and filters and arrays and all that kind of stuff isn’t something you’re comfortable with, brushing up on it (or learning by doing and failing, as I have been), is a pretty good idea.
I’m getting pretty comfortable with digging into the guts of BP now, but I’ve got a long way to go, even as someone who’s been building sites as a hobby with and without WP for many years. Still have an enormous amount to learn, especially about working with PHP, though.
Now this is just my honest opinion, but I wouldn’t get it (this isn’t a slight against Lisa).
If you glance the TOC, it’s more of an introduction to BP, which is great if you don’t know anything about WordPress or BuddyPress and you’re just diving in. And, you’re right, you can find most of this info online.
If you are an intermediate developer (or if you’re experienced with WP), you can learn as you go and dig through the BP code and other BP plugin’s code.
FYI, WPMU.org is not an affiliate site.
Right, right, I forgot that there’re User-created groups here, too. D’oh.
Ah, right, I didn’t follow your full instructions…
Yes, I disabled all other bp plugins and left buddypress in place, and shure enuf the site is back online!
Thanks a bunch r-a-y, you sure helped me sleep better tonight!
Peace

Do you have any other BP plugins running (other than BuddyPress)? If so, disable all of them.
Are you using a custom BP theme? If so, use the default.
Thnaks for the quick reply, r-a-y!
In the wp-admin buddypress submenu (forget which one)
I disabled buddypress and the site comes back.
Moved it back into /plugins and the site dies again.
Not seeing any headers, no response at all, could be a php error…
I tried putting the following into my index.php file, to see if it would enable php errors, but to no avail:
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set(‘display_errors’, ‘1’);
Any suggestions?
Yeah, but then you’d have an influx of stickies from across all the group forums! (Imagine 20+ stickies in the main forum directory!)
There’s a thing in bbPress called the super sticky (look it up!). I haven’t digged through the BP forum code to see if such code exists, but I could see this being useful.
@foxly, @francescolaffi, Congratulations on your GSoC acceptance! 
Even if all the new features aren’t added yet, I would just love to be able to give this functionality to my community. What do you think the timeline is for the first “production-ready” release?
