BuddyPress.org

I think droid app use has exceeded iphone now.
Wouldnt your app need to be specific to the buddypress install?
There are so many plugin variations I cant see how you could satisfy them all.
But yes, I’d love to see it.
How is it doing?

Also looking and trying to do something like this, but for Buddypress Links, where I could put in the url eg http://resabi.com/links/create/?link-url=http://example.com. (The Id of the url text box is link-url).
However, when I try this, I just get a clear form, as if the part after the create/ never existed. I guess the solution is pretty easy but I just can’t see it, so please help!

You can’t run Buddypress on BlueHost. You can, but you will have this issue. BlueHost throttles anyone running BP (3 of their tech support people told me this when we where with them). Even if it is only you with no others users. You can check for yourself in the control panel under CPU Throttling. You should leave them as soon as possible. Because even if this was not a issue, you can’t grow your site with them because they only offer shared hosting. I know lots of people do, but you shouldn’t run BP on a shared server.

The only 2 hosts I would recommend are Media Temple or Rackspace.

Good timing! Check out https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3243

@4ella no DO use a child theme, if all you want to do is some basic CSS styling ten you only nee to create the most basic child theme with a style.css file in it.

Follow this guide it’s very straightforward:
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

If you now activate your theme in the dashboard it will inherit/ import the main BP styles as well as all the other important BP stuff, you can now add your own styles to your stylesheet below the @ import calls to override any BP styles.

@Scotty501

Sometimes, themes seem to be missing a few essential style elements for Buddypress, but you can fix that. Open your Fishbook theme’s style.css file and scroll to line 966 where you’ll see the style rules for `ul.activity-list li`
Add the following to make sure everything in each activity item sits snugly inside the container:
`display:inline-block;`

The styling for images added to the activity stream by BP-Album plugin also needs a slight adjustment for your theme. You can add a bit of extra space beneath activity item images so they don’t crowd the divider line. Open bp-alnum/includes/css/general and scroll to line 197. Add the following to `.picture-activity-thumb img`:
`margin-bottom:10px;`

Bump.

I’m having the same problem as Tonyone, and it goes away when Buddy Press is disabled. The first problem stated in this thread, the forgot password feature is not sending emails, is different than what the “me toos” are describing.

With BuddyPress enabled
A new user who creates an account gets their account notification email
The Fast Secure Contact Form works and sends email
The Email Users plugin works
BUT
The Bulk Password Reset plugin does Not work, neither does the ‘Get New Password’ on wp-login.php. Both of those trigger this error:
The e-mail could not be sent.
Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function…

This may not be a mail problem but a password rest problem pulling the wrong error message out of … someplace

I’m on a Bluehost server, running WP 3.1.3 and BuddyPress 1.2.8

Thanks for coming back with your solution…. I wish more people would…

Huge thanks @hnla , I have changed template to default and it is quick like a hell – now , so it is only a little bit css customization to turn “default” to black design (UNPLUGGED served only for colours , nothing else , UNPLUGGED THEME WAS a PROBLEM , thanks a lot !!! next time I will avoid using child themes , I like default with some little customization

@naved sorry I didn’t mention your post , did you get it work ? use Firefox and latest FireBug ADDON for everything , it will show you everything , I use it a lot, but I am sure that @hnla responded right .

try the process in reverse to find out what the cause is, activate the theme but no plugins and see how the site performs, if still ok activate plugins one by one checking each time to see how the site runs.

There was a useful BP utility plugin called ‘buddypress-restrict-group-creation’ writen by Rich

== Description ==

This plugin will restrict creating groups and group settings to certain WP Capabilities and various member thresholds (forum posts, friends, status updates, days since registered, achievements)

In addition, this plugin will auto-demote the group creator to group mod to ensure group settings may not be modified after creation. You may also define a group admin and mod that will be auto-assigned to all new groups. (requires adding 2 config lines)

It’s no longer being supported so will likely need overhauling to work with BP 1.3 when it arrives. The plugin should be in the BP plugins group somewhere.

Thanks a lot @hnla , it is very helpful , I will work on it now , I think that I will delete all UNPLUGGED theme and will add all css in my default theme ,( “unplugged theme ” runs on “default” theme so it wouldn’t be so difficult , I have deactivated 30 plugins now , so I feel that it is much more faster with 30 plugins , I have realized that my website on internet explorer 9 is at least 3 times faster than mozilla 4 which from the start when I have installed it was very quick and now has some memory problems (slowly increases and takes 1gb RAM) so it is very slow for all my websites (maybe I got a virus) and unfortunately internet connection here in Italy is very bad for me now (NOT ADSL) 7.2MB – so my testing is very limited . Thanks a lot for your help !

@naved I thought I had ?

/wp-content/themes/your-theme-name/footer.php

your-theme-name equals whatever theme you have installed and are using if you are using the bp-default theme then it’s in:

/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/footer.php

But you don’t really want to edit the core theme as the changes will be overwritten when you upgrade so one uses a child themeto make mods to bp-default theme files.
