BuddyPress.org

I have managed to fix this issue. Her’s my fix for BuddyPress e-mail notifications problem.

@justin_k – I understand your motives, but it is more an ethical/privacy issue. You should perhaps at least let people know that you are harvesting server details. There may be private unlaunched sites that do not want the details of their setup exposed without their knowledge.

The best way to integrate this into BP is to put this code in a custom plugin or in bp-custom.php file. That way you don’t have to edit the theme at all. This code would also be great if it was added to the actual plugin :

function bp_add_fb_login_button() {

if ( !is_user_logged_in() ) {

if ( function_exists( 'jfb_output_facebook_btn' ) ) {

jfb_output_facebook_btn();

jfb_output_facebook_init();

jfb_output_facebook_callback();

}

}

}

add_action( 'bp_after_sidebar_login_form', 'bp_add_fb_login_button' );

That way anyone activating this plugin when using BuddyPress won’t have to do anything else, the login button will just appear on the login sidebar form.

Ajax quote’s working nicely, but I do have a bug report.

Looks like activating the BuddyPress Forums Extras wrapper makes clicking on the Groups navigation tab redirect me to the home (activity stream, in my case) page. The link is correct (ie /groups), but it just redirects home.

Navigating directly to a group page (ie /groups/groupname) is OK. Just the top level not going.

All other nav items are OK, except the one for Links from MrMaz’s BP-Links plugin, which does the same. Odd.

Disable the wrapper, and navigation is OK again.

Hi Nick

I just posted a reply to another YouTube question that you might find useful.

HTH

Activating the buddypress chat component plugin ver 1.2.5 completely breaks the css on my install. I am running WPMU2.9.2/BP1.2.2.1.

Is there any other information that I can provide specific to the plugin to help fix the problem?

Yes, I am having the same issue. I am running single-user WP 2.9.2 and the latest BP release, 1.2.2.1. I am only seeing this problem in the site-wide Activity stream — the individual Group and member Profile activity streams are each working correctly, loading new content when “load more” is clicked. But for some reason, on the site-wide Activity stream, clicking “Load More” once works to load a second page of content, but after that it keeps loading the same second page of content tacked on the the end of the previous display of the same content. Like this, where the numbers represent.

Here is the pattern (each “page” displays 20 Activity stream items):

— Open Activity stream page, and the most recent 20 activity items are shown.

— Cick “Load More” and a second batch of 20 activity items are loaded after the first 20.

— Cick “Load More”, and the same second batch of 20 activity items are loaded after the first 20 and fist copy of the second twenty.

— Continues…

In other words, if you clicked on “Load More” a bunch of times, here’s the activity items that would be listed:

Items 1-20

Items 21-40

Items 21-40

Items 21-40

Items 21-40

Items 21-40…

For some reason it is stuck on that second group of twenty items.

I checked the BuddyPress demo site, and the Activity stream “Load More” is working fine there, so something @anton and myself are doing is causing it to hiccup for us. Any thoughts.

+1 for an option for forums without groups. I have a client who wants to move to BuddyPress, but he (reasonably) fears that groups would confuse his users.

Again, apologies for the consecutive comments but if there is a way to edit my previous one either I’m missing it or my screen reader (I’m visually impaired) is not picking it up.

Was typing up a blog post earlier and when I published I got this output.

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/content/x/x/x/xxxxxxxx/html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-ajax-chat/bp-chat.php:480)

in /home/content/x/x/x/xxxxxxxx/html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 868

The post did appear when I went to the frontpage of the site.

I hate to consecutive post but aside from the notice in my last mention, I found another one.

I’ll again mention that I’m using WP 2.9.2, latest version of Buddypress with the default theme and the latest version of the plugin with chat to open in a new window.

I was browsing a member’s profile on my site: http://randomcatastrophe.com/members/jimmyray/ and decided to click on the chat link.

I was immediately redirected back to the frontpage of the site where all of my blog entries are.

If I’m on my own page http://randomcatastrophe.com/members/ctrowbridge/ and click on chat, it opens in a new window properly.

I hope I’ve given enough information, I can’t think of anything else to mention.

Regarding the specific buddypress suggestions: I actually use WP myself (and have never even tried BP) so this is a bit outside the scope of what I’d planned for the plugin, but I did try to write it so that it’d be very easy to extend in a variety of ways.

For example, you can have it output additional Connect buttons anywhere you like (in addition to/instead of its built-in widget). See the “Custom Login Buttons” section here: http://www.justin-klein.com/projects/wp-fb-autoconnect#customizing

Sorry for bumping this old thread earlier. The solution was dead simple. https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/no-register-page?replies=7

Hey @etiviti,

I’ve been putting the Buddypress Group Forum Extras on http://www.x-3dfx.com

after messing and modding a little bit I have some questions.

The bbcode for [color] doesn’t work, so I modded the bbcode plugin to support this, This now works.

(Shown here : http://www.x-3dfx.com/groups/off-topic/forum/topic/sexy-new-look/#post-63 )

Next “BuddyPress Forums Extras – BBCode (noshortcode)” enabled

After posting something with bbshort codes and then going to edit this becomes HTML due to this plugin, Is this correct? As this conversion is not needed due to the bbcode pluging running as well.

Now if this is intended could there be an option to turn the conversion off, (I’ve modded the php file manually to stop doing it as I like the bbcode _ck_ buttons it adds but didn’t like the back to HMTL it was doing…)

also the HTML it was doing is breaking the color codes anyway for some reason. – they didn’t work when displayed but showed correct as <font color=””> when editing…

DJPaul … without wishing to cause offence,

it is not that we “do not understand the BuddyPress Groups concept”, it is that we don’t think it is a good idea.

Most of us think it is a much better idea to have the ability to have a general forum, or general forums, that all members can use without having to join a group.

@etiviti you rock. Thanks for your speedy replies.

I’ve had your forum extras installed for a couple days and things were fine. I just tried to install a TinyMCE plugin – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-tinymce/ – which works great as well.

Unfortunately with BP-TinyMCE activated the Quote function no longer loads any text in the comment box. It just changes to “quoted” but that’s all that seems to happen.

Do you know what’s causing the conflict? Is it something you can change or is it a problem with BP-TinyMCE? I *need* a way for my users to format their topics so if it comes down to it I’ll just leave Quote deactivated…but it would be cool to have both. Perhaps if you get it working you can include BP-TinyMCE in forum extras?

WP 2.9.2 BP 1.2.2.1

Read this post I made on the bbPress forums:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-vs-buddypress-or-in-addition-to-it-a-newbie-has-questions#post-65097

Yes, bbPress is necessary if you want group forums.

You might want to read this post by Boone Gorges as to what he did to transfer an existing bbPress install into BP:

http://dev.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2009/12/06/upgrading-from-buddypress-1-0-to-1-1/

Another bbPress to BP guide is available here:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/completely-integrating-a-previous-bbpress-install

I think I might add this to the FAQ

He should also add the FB connect button to the BP sidebar login form using the action “bp_sidebar_login_form”. And also add the buddypress tag to the plugin. If someone wants to let him know that..

Also, the plugin is phoning home with server details, I think that’s against the repo rules? Check function jfb_auth().

Edit: Not sure if it does break the rules (http://markjaquith.wordpress.com/2010/02/11/how-to-get-plugin-removed-from-dir/) but I still find it a bit off, even if it is harmless.

Our whole project is centred around events. In fact, we decided for Buddypress because of bp-events. Unfortunately, we can not contribute to the development in any non-symbolic way. Thus we are sitting, waiting, wishing … – like so many. Seeing this plugin work will be such a blast!
