@Tosh

global $bp;

if ( !$bp->loggedin_user->is_site_admin )

return false;

This goes above the function_exists call.

Just an FYI, make sure that your plugin is BP-aware:

Any thoughts on how this could work with MU?

I’ve made it so that my assets get put into a folder called files and it has the 777 permissions.

PHP Version 5.1.6

What is are you calling this?

Just to clarify what @r-a-y said: “Activity replies” are handled by BuddyPress, and are sometimes called “comments”. That’s probably where the confusion is arising. If you think of comments as a blog-only phenomenon, then BP doesn’t do any comment notification at all. You do, however, get BP notifications if someone replies to (or “comments on”) one of your activity items.

What Boone said.

Blog-related stuff is handled by WordPress.

Activity replies are handled internally by BuddyPress.

I would recommend what glamgrif mentioned and that is to disable the activity stream for blog comments and forum posts because the activity stream and blog comments / forum posts are independent from one another.

You could try replacing blog comments with the activity stream:

For forum replies, you could use a BuddyPress plugin:

I’m getting the right url path thanks to Chads post. Still getting a error when trying to upload a group avatar and a member avatar. Another tester was able to upload on a windows machine. Here is the error:

Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in /var/www/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-avatars.php on line 281

WP 3.0-beta

-Multisite upgraded from MU 2.9.2

-using subdirectorys

BP 1.2.3

-installed on secondary blog

-modified the bp_core_avatar_upload_path() to use upload_url_path

-modified htaccess RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]

I mean it’s not possible to have totally separate BP networks running on separate subdomains but using the same installation of BuddyPress.

If you take my suggestion, you can make groups either Private or Hidden. If a group is private, the only people who are able to read or contribute to the group are those who have either had a membership request accepted, or those who have been invited. Hidden groups are the same, but they don’t show up in group directories, and thus it’s impossible to request membership to them – you can only join by being invited.

In this way, the activity that happens in a hidden group is only viewable by members of that group. Users of the site, however, could be members of multiple groups, and could interact with each other outside of those groups, through the profile pages and private messaging (assuming that you enable these features). From my point of view, this is the best of both worlds.

Is there a way to get the “User likes Users activity” to show up under their post like a reply?

Thanks!

Unfortunately, what you’re looking for isn’t really possible at the moment. The idea (of has been called “BuddyPress MU”) has been thrown around in these forums in the past, but to the best of my knowledge it hasn’t been put on a roadmap.

You could probably achieve most of the same result by using groups, and thinking of each group as its own “network” or “ning”. In a way, this is preferable to having multiple separated networks, as it allows users to have activity from all of their networks/groups in a single place. The only real downside to this is that you can’t offer the kind of theme customization for individual groups as would be possible if the networks were separate.

There is almost no reason to use an external bbPress; Groups (and their forums) are very powerful and can be skinned to match your requirements. The upcoming design of THIS website should open some people’s eyes.

I tend to agree except that I want a way to have an ‘open’ forum as well as group forums You know? A way for people to put up support questions without having to join a group. Unless there’s a way to make a group that anyone can post in, member or not, it’s a bit of a sticking point.

Go Tosh, go !!!

What version of PHP? (I’m at the ‘let’s see what’s different between you and me!’ stage of things)

ETA: Are the permissions on your blogs.dir correct? I had to make the avatar folder and set permissions on that directly

Hi ipstenu, I’ve upgraded to the latest nightly, haven’t noticed much difference, and the avatars still don’t work.

I do have GD library 2.0.28 installed and >>

array(12) {

[“GD Version”]=>

string(27) “bundled (2.0.28 compatible)”

[“FreeType Support”]=>

bool(true)

[“FreeType Linkage”]=>

string(13) “with freetype”

[“T1Lib Support”]=>

bool(false)

[“GIF Read Support”]=>

bool(true)

[“GIF Create Support”]=>

bool(true)

[“JPG Support”]=>

bool(true)

[“PNG Support”]=>

bool(true)

[“WBMP Support”]=>

bool(true)

[“XPM Support”]=>

bool(false)

[“XBM Support”]=>

bool(true)

[“JIS-mapped Japanese Font Support”]=>

bool(false)

}

So that’s not the issue either. It doesn’t look like it’s getting to the actual thumbnail creation.

@el_terko

no, i don’t have group forums show in the same page as bbpress (standalone), the subdomain with bbpress is a standalone bbpress installation deeply integrated with wp, and the group forum directory at /forums with no link in the header

@Paul

can we see a screenshot or somethings? thanks

If you get re-directed to the home page, copy the ”badge” folder from templates to your main skin.

If you use a child theme, upload the folder to: wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/ and it WILL work

cheers,
