This feature is coming in BuddyPress 1.3, which is coming quite soon.
Hiya guys, I just noticed that usernames with dots don’t work anymore; the old trick from here http://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1135 to insert
’define( ‘BP_ENABLE_USERNAME_COMPATIBILITY_MODE’, true );’
in wp-config.php or bp-custom.php does not work any longer. Any ideas why that is and how this can be changed?
I’m bumping this because there must be a way to mimic this sites activity page : http://swapbbm.com/
the method above totally hides the whole of the activity..I don’t want to settle for this because there has been a decline in sign-ups to my site lately partly due to not being able to see anything going on inside.
they must know something we don’t on this other site, it’s a wordpress/buddypress combo as well !
I want the registration form to be:
First Name:
Last Name:
E-Mail:
Along with other topic fields for this niche social network, however I do not want the ‘Username:’ field to be present as it is, nor the ‘Name:’ field.
I want you to be able to register using only your E-mail, First Name, Last Name. Like Facebook I guess.
Then I want you to be able to login using your e-mail, instead of some stupid username.
How do I get rid of these defaults that Buddypress put in?
Hi, i’ve upgraded to wordpress 3.2 from 3.0 just now and I’ve noticed the adminbar has changed for the better.
On my site http://anothera.net , it still uses the old buddypress adminbar. Is there a way I can make it like the one on this site? How when you mouse over your name on the bar it gives you all the buddypress options. Thanks!
Hi, I am going to attempt to use buddypress for a local intranet site. Currently I have the standard wordpress installation setup to use Active Directory to authenticate. When I install buddypress it works great, but going to the user settings page allows for the changing of password. I would like to disable that, as the whole purpose of using this on our intranet is to simplify authentication.
Is there a way to do this that doesn’t include hard-code? and if not, not that I mind, is there a way we can get this included for future buddypress builds as an option?
Buddypress needs to do a better job of documenting things. Its like the give you a little idea but then get bored and forget to tell you the rest.
Well I think that Elgg is probably more suited for what you’re trying to achieve. The other option is to completely move across to wordpress & buddypress and convert your current site. Not sure how much work would be involved though, depends on how big the site is I guess.
Roger, This is the code I have thus far….
add_filter(“gform_post_submission_1”, “set_post_thumbnail_as”, 10, 2);
function set_post_thumbnail_as($entry, $form){
//getting first image associated with the post
$post_id = $entry[“post_id”];
$attachments = get_posts(array(‘numberposts’ => ‘1’, ‘post_parent’ => $post_id, ‘post_type’ => ‘attachment’, ‘post_mime_type’ => ‘image’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’));
if(sizeof($attachments) == 0)
return; //no images attached to the post
//setting first image as the thumbnail for this post
update_post_meta( $post_id, ‘_thumbnail_id’, $attachments[0]->ID);
// update bp activty stream content.
$activity_id = bp_activity_add( array( ‘id’ => $post_id, ‘content’ => ‘$attachments’ ));
}
I understand the activity post id is different from the wordpress post id? How can I get this activity post id. Also is it okay I am using the post-submission gf filter? Is it just this simple with the correct activity add code?
Can you please help me? I’m really stuck and almost thinking of scrapping the project just because I suck at buddypress and PHP.
Your site is not related to the search on this website. Closing thread.
Please would you clarify what exactly you mean by “[posts] in BuddyPress”? When I read that, I immediately think of writing blog posts, which is part of WordPress core.
How do I adapt Buddypress so that you can only register with an @tufts.edu address and only become registered after e-mail confirmation?
my search button finds everything apart from the text you type in http://www.ihubbusiness.co.uk
Is anyone out there working on this anymore?
I have noticed that custom HTML is accepted in any post using Buddypress. Is there a way to block custom html allowed in posts, but yet allow ‘oEmbed for WordPress’ to still fully function?
better late than never
How can I make wordpress shortcodes work anywhere in buddypress?
My users are not getting their e-mail notifications.
Here are my specs. WordPress 3.2, Buddypress 1.2.9, godaddy hosting, OS/Hosting Type: Linux / 4GH Web Hosting, Hosting Configuration: 2.2, PHP Version: PHP 5.2
@mercime Well, I’m using a child theme based off on bp-default, which is the default BP theme. Thing is, now I recall doing this in my new stylesheet when I first created the child theme:
/* Inherit the default theme adminbar styles */
@import url( ../../plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/_inc/css/adminbar.css );
I tried importing the styles for the default theme and the adminbar.css within the same style.css for my child theme. Could that be the issue?
I just tried adding the above changes and the issue isn’t resolved.
Sorry I would search for it myself on buddypress however the search is broken..just returns me to the home page.
The form gets saved by the gravity forms, however this happens before the thumbnail gets set. Could you possibly help me out with some code I can add to my post submission filter? The documentation for buddypress really sucks… Thanks Roger
Hello,
I looking for a good invite tool where my users can invite via e-mail, facebook or twitter. It has to be compatible with WordPress Version 3.2 and Buddypress Version 1.2.9
It just redirects to buddypress.org for me. Is anyone else having this issue?
I had the same problem with the wordpress admin menus in ie9 and online (linux) sites but not on local (vista) sites. Once I viewed and played with the menus in firefox they worked as expected in ie9…. I hope others using the same sites would not have to go through the same process…
Also the buddypress upgrade didn’t show up unless I ran add new plugins first….
Could someone please please tell me how to make ajax quote work with tinymce? I need it to work i’ll pay someone
