Check out the BuddyPress Like plugin – not exactly what you want but as a starting point.
Hey guys,
I’m working on a new project and I’m wondering if I’ll need custom PHP to do some of the things I want and opinions on if I can do the stuff I want.
Should I have installed Buddypress on single user wordpress or WPMU if I DON’T want users to have their own blogs?
The main idea behind the site will be voting, so lets say I want users to be able to login on their facebook and vote for the next type of movie they would want to come out. Not in poll format, more of a Digg format where the suggestions with the most votes go to the top and vice versa. This would be on one page, and then users can vote on other pages of other topics with a certain amount of votes.
What are the possiblities for plugins for this, or will I be writing a lot of this myself?
Thanks for any and all advice on this!
Hmm something doesn’t quite sound right there. Just as a sanity check are you testing using the default theme with noi plugins bar BuddyPress?
Hi I install:
wordpress PL: OK
buddypres: OK
Send polish translation(buddypress-pl_PL.po & buddypress-pl_PL.mo)
to -> wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-langauges
and its still not work…
any idea ? Thanks for help !
tried deleting cache didn’t help.
I’ve got wordpress 3.2.1 and buddypress 1.2.9, and when a message is initially sent it only goes 1 time. But when somebody replies, it’s sent twice. Any ideas about where to look for what’s causing duplicate messages?
@funmi —…. and do you have an idea as of how to achieve that !??!
Thanks!
Use multisite instead.
Don’t add another wp install in a subdirectory. Enable the network on the main site. you can hav sub dir sites with it and they share a userbase.

Hello, i am hoping someone might be able to give me some advice.
I run a website, Minecraft-central.com and i have recently installed buddypress. I have also added an additional wordpress install, with buddypress, in a subdirectory. I would like user accounts, forums, activities, groups, etc, to be shared across the sites. Mostly i just want an additional homepage for the social part of my site.
can anyone recomend a solution,
thanks
@Boone Gorges Thanks so much, that worked again
I hope someone will update the codex page later cause many links refer to it in forums, that’s how I found it in first place 
LAST TRY
Why doesn’t buddypress work with wordpress as it should and as it is told by the experts.
pages are not found so who CAN help me?
StudioPress has a paid plugin to make their Genesis child theme buddypress compatible. you can do the work manually as mercime has suggested, or you can get the plugin. ask them over there. 
Or, go back to using just bbpress and install a private messaging plugin if that’s all the extra you need?

that’s just one i found.
What theme are you using? What is the link to your site?
@christophg Awesome! Can’t wait to have the time to look into it. Unfortunately my community is already over 200 strong, and counting! So unless I can make this idea work retro active it won’t work for my project. I plan to dig into my idea next week. (hopefully it happens this time!)
@imjscn For my communities needs a 5 star system is best. I’m sure it wouldn’t be hard to mold my idea into a thumbs up/down system. Keep watching this thread, as I make progress I’ll post it here. You may also want to look in christophg’s idea if you have a young or new community.
Have you cleared browser cache?
And is the site doing any database caching?
OK this forum thing and group posting thing is confusing should be one or the other LOL.
BuddyPress 1.5 BETA 1
When removing friends my count still stays.
EX I have 2 friends I remove then but it still says I have 2 friends?
I dropped the SQL calls to friends and it still says it. Tried deleting and reinstalling still says it?
the code didn’t show properly and I can’t edit the post, so that is the link for codex page that have the code:
https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/bp-custom-php/
the code didn’t show prperly and I can’t edit the post, so that is the link for codex page that have the code:
https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/bp-custom-php/
hello
I had this working before, copied from buddypress codex, after update to 1.5 it doesn’t work, that was the code:
‘<?php
function remove_xprofile_links() {
remove_filter( ‘bp_get_the_profile_field_value’, ‘xprofile_filter_link_profile_data’, 50, 2 );
}
add_action( ‘plugins_loaded’, ‘remove_xprofile_links’ );
?>’
now the links appear all over the profile again, any solution? 
or there is a better way presented in 1.5 to accomplish this that I’m not aware of?
When deleting friends my count doesn’t go down?
@pisanojm The BP_Activity_Template::__construct() problem has been fixed in the trunk; see https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3421 Thanks for the report.
@imjscn You should be prompted to run the wizard in a yellow message across the top of the Dashboard (or Network Admin, on Multisite). Or, underneath the Dashboard > BuddyPress menu, you should see a Setup button.
@candy2012 — i think you are right. !! good point.
I thought for sure there would be a small filter we could use to remove links in ONLY ACTIVITY… but I guess not.
Ah you were right. Thank you! What good news this was to wake up to! 
So I have been completely unable to install BuddyPress – it cripples my site every time I try. Any ideas of how I can do it successfully?
@djpaul , I deactive and deleted the whole buddypres folder, then, ftp up the bp 1.5. I thought this is an install? but the wizard steps are not presented.
How to do a new install?
