Andy Truly love the site, as a buddypresser, and a Beer enthusiast.

Anyway youd be willing to share with me what plugin you are using for the ratings you have on your home page or is that a custom job?

The GroupBlog plugin does not fit into that structure really well. While it does some of it, it really is going a different direction in its approach. You’d be best to take a look at this plugin:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-community-blogs/

It is no longer under development for a year and will not be updated either. It will not work with 1.2, but it does do what you desire. You could at least use that as a starting point and port the code to bp1.2.

I think @kriskl is asking for something like what I was asking about here, but didn’t get any responses to: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/changing-group-tab-display-defaults

I’ll take a look at the Groups loop, @r-a-y, though I’m not sure I’ll be able to figure out what to do. Thanks.

r-a-y, does this plugin enable embed features on extended profiles, so users can paste, for example youtube videos?

@MrMaz, I’m a big fan of Theme Hybrid so my customisations are only being done on Hybrid child themes.

The only edits that I find need to be done are on the files that use

<?php get_header() ?>

<div id="content">

<div class="padder">

a grep & replace fixes any child theme issues & all seems to work as expected.

Thankfully your plugin only uses those on the 3 files mentioned above so all is nice & easy & works as expected if the calls to template files use locate_template rather than require_once

cool, thanks.

Fantastic plugin, only needs 3 file additions to custom themes so?

/bp-links-default/create.php

/bp-links-default/index.php

/bp-links-default/single/home.php

OK, just found the trac version, same call to require_once 'single/forms/details.php';

should it be

locate_template( array( 'single/forms/details.php' ), true );?

Hi @MrMaz,

love the plugin, thanks.

Where can I get the development version?

The current 0.3.2 version uses:

require_once 'single/forms/details.php'; in /themes/bp-links-default/create.php, so I need to copy this file to my custom theme folder, should it be locate_template( array( 'single/forms/details.php' ), true );

to save adding the extra file in my custom template if I don’t need to make any theme changes to that file?

Hi – i get the same issue – hosting with Servage:

Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare bp_loaded() (previously declared in /mounted-storage/home88b/sub008/sc20234-GIGI/xxxxxxx.com/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-loader.php:54) in /mounted-storage/home88b/sub008/sc20234-GIGI/xxxxxxx.com/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-loader.php on line 55

Did you set pretty permalinks?

You could try this WordPress plug-in…’wp-members. Works for me.

I guess I’m confused… if you;re using MU, then just create another blog. Go to the Site Admin -> Blogs menu, and Add A Blog.

All blog activity will show up in the activity stream automagically.

actually you can create a login page in 1.2.1 and have your site private….. once they pass credentials, they will be allowed inside.

euh… activating a plugin calling buddypress ?

There’s a plugin for group tags, but that categorizes the groups and not the activity content:

Andy mentioned that the code for global activity search exists, it just needs a frontend.
