BuddyPress.org

That code snippet probably applied to an older version of BP.

Instead of creating another blog, you could just setup blog categories like “Books” on your BP blog and add a button the the navigation bar with a link to this blog category.

If you anticipate you’ll need an entire blog dedicated to “Books”, you can do that as well, it will just be a little bit harder to pull in the content on your BP blog.

It’s totally up to you.

Hi nickrita,

Got your PM.

Can you post an enhancement ticket on Trac – https://trac.buddypress.org/newticket (use the same login info you use here) – asking for an admin option to select the default filter?

Look into the Groups loop and adjust the parameters to output a list of group forums:

https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-groups-loop/

These are the parameters you should be looking at: “most-forum-topics” and “most-forum-posts”.

Copy /bp-themes/forums/index.php in a child theme and add a new groups loop.

This won’t make it look exactly like the forums here on bp.org, but will come close.

@pedromiguel – yes

@nickmy – no

@DJPaul

is it also possibly to buy gifts with that plugin?

Thanks Dfa327… but where to download? The repository at wordpress.org doesn’t seem to be updated?

My Achievements plugin does do this. However, it currently does not work with BuddyPress 1.2. It should be updated in a few weeks or a month.

Thanks for the plug, Erich

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-profile-filters-for-buddypress/ is the plugin you’re thinking of. I updated it about a week ago to work on versions of BP 1.2+ (though you should definitely let me know if it does not work!).

@Nick – the plugin will do what you want. Check out the readme file, which will explain how to make it work.

@gregfielding – That’s a good idea, but at the moment BP is not set up in a way that makes it easy to create those check marks with a plugin. Maybe I’ll submit a core patch that does it, as I’d like to see it too.

that would be really a good feature all community I know has this features.

In my site I use this plugin. It has all the basic functions I need – RSVP, confirmation emails, payment bridge, etc. – but the interface is a mess. It also has no BP integration, but I don’t really need that in my project.

I had planned to restructure, rewrite and expand the plugin, also including the excellent jQuery plugin FullCalendar. I’m very interested to see what Erwin and Marius Ooms come up with! A connection with groups, Buddypress’ killer app imho, sounds like a great idea as well.

But for my project I really need a solid event management tool, like a self-hosted version of eventbrite.com, integrated with the BP members database. I don’t really need a solution that allows members to create events or put stuff on a calendar.

Will Erwin and Marius solutions be an event management tool or more like an expanded community calendar? I’d encourage them to look into the EdgeTechWeb plugin…

EDIT:

Actually, the EdgeTechWeb plugin is really ugly. I need alternatives…

PayPal Booking Framework

Advanced Events Registration (based on EdgeTechWeb’s…?)

New plugin: Custom Profile Filters for BuddyPress

http://teleogistic.net/2009/05/custom-profile-filters-for-buddypress/

Boone for President

Code

BTW: please let me know if this Plug-in works fine with BP-version 1.2.1

I’m having that problem too…I’ve got profile fields set up for full contact information…phones, fax, address, etc. And all are clickable and search within buddypress.

It would be nice to have a simple check box next to the profile field to choose if the field should be searchable.

I just updated the buddypress-ajax-chat plugin so that it is now trivial to install just like all the other plugins. Please let me know if you have any issues with it.

Thanks,

Dave:)

– delete all buddypress folder by ftp

– log off wp-admin

– log in on wp-admin

– upload by ftp the buddypress folder (make shure you put on wp-content/plugins) after upload you should have wp-content/plugins/buddypress/”a lot of files and folders”)

– Check plugins again on wp-admin

If you have any error on ftp (deleting the files) :

check the user permissions, depending on server configuration, the files could be with apache permissions instead of your user.

If you are on a sharing hosting ask your support to check the file permissions for you.

I like to try any plugin and, hei…

@Dwenaus, this Rate Forum Posts plugin looks cool.

It is fine in my localhost but I found this error in live site

http://iluni-ftui.org/groups/situs-iluni/forum/

WordPress database error You have an error in your SQL syntax;

check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near

‘WHERE object_type = ‘bb_post’ AND meta_key = ‘rfp_rating’ AND object_id = 1′ at line 1 for query

SELECT meta_value FROM WHERE object_type = ‘bb_post’ AND meta_key = ‘rfp_rating’ AND object_id = 1

It solved by adding code below in rate.inc.php

require_once ABSPATH.’bb-config.php’;

global $bb_table_prefix, $bb_meta_table;

$bb_meta_table = $bb_table_prefix . ‘meta’;

Thanks for the plugin.

Now it works. But since I’m still a WP noob.

I don’t know if it is politically correct.

Hi to all those people that watched at at times gave me feedback on my troubles getting BP to work on my site. The short answer… I had BP installed on my “localhost”. So what I finally ended up doing was to export my localhost SQL and then imported it to my server at Powweb. It worked… Now I am just tweaking my install and ironing out the way I would like the site to look.

So to those that watched and answered my hiccups “thank you” I appreciate you taking the time to pass on your expertise.

All the best,

Rod

Hi,

I have the same problem with a ”ported” buddypress installation [in site with several months] and I don’t have this problem with a fresh install [test site]

I read and try fix above. I try change my URL/path in media settings [path to uploads] … nothing works

Then I simply erase all data in misc options … [as I see in fresh install]

And work!

Maybe a coincidence … but work.

all the best

I’m also looking for a paid membership plugin for the buddypress platform. I’ve looked into wp-member which seems to have really bad reviews, and the wishlist member, which seems not to work with buddypress. There’s also the supporter plugin, but it only protects themes.

Is there a known solution for this?
