Hi there,
Sorry for bumping this thread. I am Thijmen Stavenuiter and I am the developer of the plugin.
If I need to change anything to the plugin, just give me a shout at thijmenstavenuiter@gmail.com and I’ll try to fix it up right for you.
Kind regards,
Thijmen Stavenuiter
Wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of a list of features or how-to guide for Buddypress? Finding the main website to be somewhat lacking in helpful information, and don’t really have time to trawl through the forums! Looks like Buddypress is a fantastic tool and am planning to give it a test run on a new WP site I’m launching soon, but I fear I only understand a fraction of its potential! Thanks in advance 
3 Great Questions:
“The other integration point I’d be interested in is a member profile. bbpress has their own profile page but I’d prefer to integrate this into the Buddypress profile. Is this possible?”
“Does “BuddyPress integration” mean that bbPress now provides an API for buddyPress but buddyPress is not using it yet?”
“The other integration point I’d be interested in is a member profile. bbpress has their own profile page but I’d prefer to integrate this into the Buddypress profile. Is this possible?”
I would also like to know the answer to please
First thing, you need a child theme if you haven’t already created one. Doing a quick search online should find directions on how to do it if you need.
Second, In that child theme you need a CSS file to make changes to your buddypress site’s style.
Third, there is a buddypress file called default.css where all the default styling is set up. In many cases your CSS file and the default file will have conflicts, but not to worry…there is a solution.
Using code from karmatosed from above, I’ve added a couple of modifications.
a, a:link{color: #ffffff !important;}
a:visited{color: #ffffff !important;}
a:hover{color: #ffffff !important;}
Hope this helps!
@mercime i’m using the buddyboss theme. I ifgured out the problem to my first question…it was just taking out the code in the archive.php file
I’d actually prefer the large single forum model, but would like to limit access to a sub-forum to a group.
The other integration point I’d be interested in is a member profile. bbpress has their own profile page but I’d prefer to integrate this into the Buddypress profile. Is this possible?
@djpaul
@johnjamesjacoby I am looking forward to being able to install BuddyPress on my site, which now uses bbPress plugin 2.0 as you can see on http://www.opes.es/
A few hours ago, I saw there was a new RC avaiable, I checked the changelog and I found “BuddyPress integration”. I spent the last few hours trying to know what this means, because I installed buddyPress and it does not recognise bbPress plugin(both from the SVN repository).
Does “BuddyPress integration” mean that bbPress now provides an API for buddyPress but buddyPress is not using it yet?
If this is the case, I know I can have both v1 and v2 forums working(as I saw in buddyPress you testing website) but I don’t know if it worths, should I wait? Do you have any idea(more or less) about how long is it going to take you to make this integration?
Thanks and congratulations to the team.
@sidjags I have same problem with BP 1.5 beta 2. It seems that adding to favourites works only on activity page but not on post pages. The Favourite link URL is generated correctly.
If anyone can point me in the right direction, I’d greatly appreciate it!
Yes I got the feeling that I have to cope with this.
Actually the thing is that I want to use buddypress as a kind of blog besides activities posts. So the proper solution is to make a combination of buddypress and blogs by wordpress. I will start a new topic about this.
Thanks
oh my goodness! thank you @modemlooper! omg omg T_T
@r-a-y – *whispers* ok. best wishes 
That includes the patch from @djpaul on bbPress.
But- I’ve noticed that I’m missing databases that are listed by other posts from previous forum topics.
Such as
“wp_bb_forums
wp_bb_meta
wp_bb_terms
wp_bb_term_relationships
wp_bb_term_taxonomy
wp_bb_topics”
if this is the problem, how do I add these databases?
@dsg257 are you also on MAMP? Is mod_rewrite enabled in your server?
Easiest thing to do is check out the phpDoc in the code itself.
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/bp-core/bp-core-component.php#L6
Basically it requires a few basic parameters to identify the component, and calls the parent class function to put them into action.
got same problem change permalink from default none of the page links work and any buddypress links come back page not found
It uses its own catch-URI schema and pushes its templates based on the URL in question without rewrite rules:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.2.9/bp-core/bp-core-catchuri.php#L7
Thank you very very much @modemlooper !!
I think that somebody would be happy to use fully working Buddypress Group Fields boones&modemloopers plugin, I have uploaded mine fully working fields to pastebin , so you only need to change the names of your fields , my fields are created for clubs&bars&restaurant website :
http://pastebin.com/Bj3aE4Q0
If you want to see how it works , take a look here on this example:
http://www.4ella.com/groups/bimbos-nightclub-montecatini/gallery/
PHP experts pls. control the code , it is working for me , I did my best .
Tomorrow I will want to change with the help of .css one column
Yup! Add the define statement in /wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php and replace $img_url with your own and you should be good to go!
@mercime – *whispers* ssh! it’s a secret! That’s all I can say for now!
@Boone and @Paul –
“Some point after 1.5, BuddyPress won’t come with bbPress. If you’ll want to use a forum, we’ll invite you to download bbPress (2.0); maybe we’ll even add a link in to make it easy.”
So based on what you are saying is that there is no reason for me not to move ahead with BP 1.5 and bbpress 2.0? It sounds like the two will be standalone anyway?
” I don’t think any work has been done yet regarding creating a forum when a group is created (e.g. create forum when “create group” is clicked)”
That was the point of integration that I was wondering about – thanks.
Thanks much for the reply
if I recall well, @r-a-y is on top of this one – for BP 1.5 – 1.6 – 1.7
Thanks @modemlooper, in return i’ll try and test your mobile theme
Pay it forward.
