BuddyPress.org

Similar question here. I want to see New Blog posts as default.

I already read this: https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/custom-buddypress-loops/the-activity-stream-loop/

but it doesn’t help, becaus there is not one example for the complete code, only the snippets.

Grosbouff,

This is a shot in the dark and I don’t know how difficult this would be, but what I am looking to do is to have individual groups have locations and have the locations of all groups show up on a map, lets say on the front page.

This is to allow people to find groups near them by looking at a map.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, sorry about that last post! I was wrong, you musn’t activate this plugin globally.

The reason I though that you had to was because the tweetstream-settings link doesn’t show up in the buddypress navigation-bar on the top of the page if you are on a wpmu-blog (like http://blog.testbp.org)

You need to be on the start page to see it.

@Dwenaus, haha good one! At the moment there’s no hurry for me. I just wanted to check what you think about that. But who knows maybe I will need the feature in a few weeks.

But again, good plugin, nice implementation.

I think my situation is somewhat unique as

$bp->forums->bbconfig = $bp->site_options['bb-config-location']; which is loaded in bp-forums.php is different (subdomain) than the wp root bb-config.php which had a stale reference to the default bb table prefix.

I’m not certain – but you may be able to call do_action( 'bbpress_init' );

Looks right to me. You got the whole “do this on the SECONDARY blog” part in there.

I have the same problem.

The buddypress default theme is not activateable since I upgraded to Buddypress 1.2, and is still not solved after upgrading to Buddypress 1.2.1.

I also get the message:

The active theme is broken. Reverting to the default theme.

This error message apparently appears if the activated theme has no index.php or style.css

here is a snippet from the theme-php:

/**

* Checks that current theme files ‘index.php’ and ‘style.css’ exists.

*

* Does not check the ‘default’ theme. The ‘default’ theme should always exist

* or should have another theme renamed to that template name and directory

* path. Will switch theme to default if current theme does not validate.

* You can use the ‘validate_current_theme’ filter to return FALSE to

* disable this functionality.

*

* @since 1.5.0

*

* @return bool

*/

Our default theme is and should stay K2 for new users, so we can’t change that. But apparently we need an index.php which the buddypress default theme seems not to have.

Any Ideas?

I have exactly the same issue. Am running BP 1.2.1 and the BuddyPress Template Pack 1.0.2 on an IIS7.

Whats really weird, is I just tried this in IE8 and it worked fine with a particialar file.

Then I tried it in FireFox 3.5.8 with FireBug enabled and I had the same problem you had, with a different file. I got “500 URL Rewrite Module Error” when trying to GET the picture name I just uploaded.

I through thats strange and so I went back to IE and uploaded a different file and it also failed.. so not browser related.. it’s something do do with the file itself??. I can’t figure out exactly what but several of the files I’ve tried don’t upload and show the crop – my guess after some experimentation is there is some rule about the minimu file size needed to crop?

Just made a few, minute changes to the secondary blog guide:

https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/install-buddypress-on-a-secondary-blog/

@andrea_r – can you give it a once-over since you’re a WPMU guru?

“I came across this code if I like to Set which blog ID BuddyPress will run on:

define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, $blog_id );

So, if I didn’t find an answer for my first question, I have plan B question

if I’ve chosen the blog Id to be 3 for example

would it be like this blog3.example.tld/community “

The Blog ID has no bearing on the actual subdomain. It’s just internal. So if the blog ID was 3, the 3 would not be in the subdomain.

I’m getting an error message when I try to upgrade:

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/housings/public_html/wp-admin/admin-header.php:18) in /home/housings/public_html/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 868

The secondary blog instructions should apply, just change the subdirectory references to subdomain ones if you installed WPMU as a subdomain install.

I guess the instructions could be clearer, I’ll make some modifications to it when I have some time.

But @sabuntu, did you know you – yes you! – can edit any page on codex.buddypress.org? Just make sure you are logged in.

This is what you’re looking for:

Allow BuddyPress to function on multiple blogs of a WPMU installation, not just on one root blog:

define ( 'BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG', true );

I haven’t tried this out though, but should work!

This thing works well on my test install, very well done @Dwenaus! Right now I’m also using another plugin called comment rating. Any chance you might extend yours to comments also?

@dwenaus

Ok, just updated to 1.0.3 and hit another snag. Seems you have the bb_meta table hardcoded as I’m using an external forum install

nevermind – looks like i have weird issue with an external bbpress install and various prefix values being defined (might be a buddypress bug)

BuddyPress works like a central community, so it’s either you have one BuddyPress website or not.

What you can do is to install it on a single subdomain.

like community.abc.com

then you would have to edit your wp-config.php file, add the following line

define ( ‘BP_ROOT_BLOG’, 3 );

the number 3 is your blog id.

I’ve found the solution from

http://premium.wpmudev.org/forums/topic/how-to-install-buddypress-as-a-sub-domain

Thanks to Sabuntu!

I’m requesting the subdomain installation as a feature though.

Hi Sabuntu.

Thank you so much for your contribution on wpmudev.

You saved me so much time on this.

I’m adding this post so that maybe it can help out people here as well.

Yep, me too! Localization or better, all the messages are costumizable from backend. Cool stuff, though! (I think I will add through css a little graphic instead of the text…
