@djpaul Is it coming in the next BP Update!?
If it doesn’t work, report it as a bug on http://trac.buddypress.org please
@shanebp nice function, Shane, will use it.
if you digged into all these activity things, maybe you know how could I limit (e.g., one per activity) these external links in activity updates?
thank you.
I too noticed this, as it no longer works in WordPress 3.2 betas.
I have investigated this and cannot find an easy way of adding a link to the Forums onto the main WordPress Nav menu, other than adding a new custom menu item, with an absolute URL to the forums (or relative to the base path).
It would be nice if BuddyPress included the facility to automatically append a link to the forums to the standard WordPress nav menu
@Dwenaus, there’s no message appear when login failed. How to get that message appear?
use the plugin i just provided instead that plugin u provided will not be updated for buddypress 1.3
It’s an error in that plugin, not BuddyPress
Hey,
check_is_admin() is using Group ID as second variable, $activity->item_id IS actually Group ID if $activity->component is ‘groups’, its the way BuddyPress store activity in database.
I’m using custom theme aswell, but I haven’t overrided ajax file.
Could you try to switch back to default theme for a moment and check if you will be able to delete activity from groups?
Also, to check if changes applied took place and are working you could add some echo before that access check in ajax files like
`echo ‘AJAX WORKING’`
and then use browser debug tool, for instance select “Inspect Element” in Chrome, select “Network” and after you press “Delete” link – there should be new request in “Network” to the file which actually is trying to delete activity. Select it and check repsonse body – if you see ‘AJAX WORKING’ there it will mean that the file you’ve modified is working.
Oh sorry I think you have misunderstood or I get you wrong.
you can now access, your stuff is online. Please take a look when you want.
You wont need to login anymore, thank you again dude.
link.
edit:
I just solved. There seems to be a problem with buddypress copy/paste system. I just “retyped” the code, and it’s working like a charm. Thank you for your time.

Hey Guys – I wonder if you would be able to help me?
I recently changed the URL to my Buddypress install and now the forum for any group is giving the error :
Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_get_id_from_slug() in /home1/backinfi/public_html/myoldURLaddress/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums.php on line 206
I looked in the bb_meta table at bb_option and the address there had been changed by my SQL (during the process of changing my URL) to http://mynewURLaddress/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/
indeed the location of my bb-config.php
I have tried it with the old and the new URL, niether works !
Is there somewhere else I need to look?
Could it be that although the sites URL has been changed, the actual directory on my server still has the same “old” name ?
I’m having the same issue! My index.php was overwritten with what I’ve found is the buddypress forums/index.php page… so I’ve tried reverting to my original index.php (by deleting the BP code and pasting my original template code in)… and it’s not reflecting changes I’m making to the code on the front end. So, I figure it’s still referring to that original index file… somewhere! And it’s displaying something else within the WP Theme Editor.
I also installed the BP and BP template pack plugins to try and integrate them with an existing theme that I’ve already done a lot of work on, it’s not a specific BP theme.
Eeeek! If anyone can help, that’d be much appreciated. And I promise to be indebted to you forever and extoll your virtues to anyone who’ll listen. 
@smiranda there is a backend group management plugin that Admins can use to physically put members into groups
@svenl77 – Happy to have your team on board. Something as easy as moving the `get_sidebar()` calls into the footer makes sense to me. Would seem an easy patch and reduce some duplication.
I’m opposed to hosting anything anywhere else (github) for the simple fact it further fragments development. We have Trac, and we have BuddyPress.org. Unless there’s a coup d’état and mutiny abounds us, no sense in moving that code somewhere else and possibly losing out on the eyes that are already here.
Now if you want to setup your own git repo, and chip away at something until you’re comfortable with the end result, and then provide an SVN diff to put back into core, obviously something like that is fine.
I am working on a buddypress project that could use an additional profile feature and I was wondering if anyone has seen or created something that would assist me.
I am looking for the ability to allow all users to add file to thier buddypress profiles. This file would then be visible to other “logged in” users and be able to download it.
I know that there is a great plugin called Group Documents, but this does not quite solve my requirements. That plugin offers the upload feature for all members of a certain group and the files are then displayed on the group page. I need something that is user specific, not group.
Is this possible, can anyone assist or point me in the right direction in how to create a plugin or do you know of a plugin that would be fairly simple to modify slightly.
I hope someone can help as this is a very important part of the site project.
Thank you in anticipation

I am also looking for this exact same feature.
@chouspastry2002 did you find a solution?
Is there a plugin that can do this?
Simple typo ? Should be:
$username = $bp->loggedin_user->id;

Yeah, I tried this too. I need the twitter feed to be sent as soon as the post has been created. Its not something that the user actually types out a message. Its weird and hard to explain. But I am basically looking for:
I create a post and that post is submitted to my twitter feed. My friend “jeff” writes a post and that post is submitted to his twitter feed. I am thinking that this isn’t possible. Or just not yet.
Thanks for all the help everyone. If you still have advice I would still love to hear it.

OK. but as I said I’m doing test on a localhost server before uploading…so I would like to know when you can take a look for upload header and entry.php files for you to check. Maybe you could email me or something (just for avoiding keep the web with the issue) and as the register ir required I could also disable that feature.
My email is phoenon@hotmail.com , and This, is the link.
Thank you again boss!
I’m working on a site that is making use of buddypress 1.2.8 everything works well besides 1 thing.
The site needs groups and a copy of groups. The groups are used as groups for clans and the other groups need to be used for tournaments. What I had done was to take all the group information and just copy and paste a new version and rename everything in the new version to tournaments.
The last thing I now need work with is the AJAX.php file to get the invites working.
Where am I going wrong? I tried countless different ways with either error messages or it simple just does not work. Any advice would be great.
Thanks for your response!
