BuddyPress.org

The upgrade worked for me…Thanks! I’ll post further questions/issues on your site.

What do you think about displaying the karma on the profile page too?

Something like this:

function rfp_show_poster_karma() {

global $bp;

$poster_id = $bp->displayed_user->id;

$karma = get_usermeta( $poster_id, 'rfp_post_karma' );

echo rfp_poster_karma($karma);

return;

}

add_filter( 'bp_before_member_header_meta', 'rfp_show_poster_karma' );

Here is the complete code this is working successfully for me to block anybody with a user role below “Editor” from having the option to create new Groups:

<h3>

<?php _e( 'Groups Directory', 'buddypress' ) ?>

<?php if ( current_user_can( 'delete_others_posts' ) ) : //only admins and editors can see this ?> &nbsp;

<a class="button" href="<?php echo bp_get_root_domain() . '/' . BP_GROUPS_SLUG . '/create/' ?>">

<?php _e( 'Create a Group', 'buddypress' ) ?></a><?php endif; ?>

</h3>

Man I’m dense — too many sleepless nights doing this are taking their toll on me. I already asked for help on this in another thread, received help, and even successfully implemented it. I thought it seemed like deja vu all over again. Doh! See this thread, especially the last few posts:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/forum-user-roles-and-moderator-ability-bp-12-rc2-wp-291#post-36543

The solution by intimez near the end of the thread is basically the one above, but with the button code included.

Ahh, now it’s all coming back to me…

Read up on this:

https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/modifying-the-buddypress-admin-bar/

There’s also a plugin that makes it easier to modify the admin bar:

I haven’t tried it, but give it a shot and let us know what you think of it!

Forgot to list oEmbed for BuddyPress

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/oembed-for-buddypress/

v0.6 coming on the weekend or a day or two after that.

My avatars are showing up, but the alignment is all vertical on the sidebar with no spacing . What I would love is an avatar block to show up. I’m also having the spacing issues (or lack of spacing) in my Members page.

I’m using the BuddyPress Template plugin on BuddyPress 1.2.1 for WordPress single user 2.9.2. This site is a test site for a client project and it’s pretty much the last hurdle. The website is http://workingonthisnow.com/MHA

I appreciate all the help! This forum is amazing.

I also miss these slugs. I hope they will be part of the next buddypress version. The modification of the members slug worked fine for me.

BP depends on .htaccess being enabled.

In apache in httpd.conf AllowOverride controls

what directives will be allowed in .htaccess files.

I’m using:

AllowOverride FileInfo Options

The default value was:

AllowOverride None

Which caused problems when installing BuddyPress

@hempsworth Great work so far!

Any thoughts on translations or custom messages? So members can ‘love’ or ‘dig’ something instead of ‘like’ it. May be best done through the back-end.

As soon as custom messages are possible, I’ll definitly start using this.

@blackphantom – I think your plugin is just awesome and gets better and better! WOW! The settings are already great!

Some little suggestions:

– @mentions from BP to twitter are still @ in twitter. Why not make a similar setting: “Export tweets containing @names”

– Set a personal filter in the frontend like “only import/export tweets with … in it” and “never import/export tweets with … in it (say I twitter alot about buddypress in twitter, but my BP Users are not interested in that at all…)

Would be even more great (if that is possible

And did i get that right – is it already translatable? How has the file to be names? (I will make a german translation)

PS: I like, that we can name the twitter-app as we like too!!!

This will make it where only wp-admins can do it. make sure you’re doing this in your child theme, not the core bp-default files:

In the groups folder > index.php…right after the form tag replace the next few lines with:

<br />

<h3>

<?php _e( 'Groups Directory', 'buddypress' ) ?>

<?php if ( current_user_can('manage_options') ) : ?>

button goes here

<?php endif; ?>

</h3>

the dumb editor keeps jacking up the code. the button for creating the group shouldn’t change and should go where indicated above

FYI: This bug was fixed in BuddyPress version 1.2.1. Upgrading solved the problem for me.

hi there,

on my

– WP single user 2.9.2

– old wordpress self-customized magazine theme

– BP 1.2.1

– and more than 20 other wp plugins

the following BP plugins are running fine :

– BuddyPress Template Pack 1.0.2;

– BP Group Documents 0.2.5

– BP-TinyMCE 0.2.1

– External Group Blogs 1.2.1

(Just a small php error by delating a group, for the moment)

Guys, that’s a good job !

check out:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/removing-blog-posts-form-the-swa-widget#post-36775

but instead of component == ‘blogs’ change it to type == ‘new_member’

then change your theme activity/index.php to remove the select option ‘show new members’

I would also like to see this filter turned off if logged in as admin, so we could administer the the spammers better –

using the above example – add before the loop

if ( is_site_admin() )

return $activities;

“I still wonder why they are attacking buddypress”

Backlinks, that’s it.

“I am starting to realise that no matter what BP devs do the spammers always try new things “

and this is open source. the code is OPEN. That means whatever is put in to stop spam, the code is viewable by spammers who just rewrite their programs to get around it.

“the fight against spam is in our hands the users, it will also help us learn more about being better webmasters”

Yes! If you are setting up a site to host other people’s information, then you have a responsibility as a webmaster to maintain your site.

I’m contributing to a plugin called events-manager (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/events-manager/), but I’m not sure it works on BuddyPress or MU for that matter.

I’m working on a BP project at the moment that could use an events plugin, so I hope to have some time to upgrade it and adapt it to work on MU/BP in the near future. This would not be for a few weeks though…

Just a quick one thought I would point out to, I have managed to integrate sexy bookmarks into the actual link see here:

http://www.wpin.me/links/whats-coming-in-wordpress-3-0-features

How did I do it?

Basically opened up the following file

wp-content/plugins/buddypress-links/themes/bp-links-default/single/link-header.php

In the link-header.php find:

<div id=”item-meta”>

<span class=”domain”><?php bp_link_url_domain() ?> –</span>

<?php bp_link_description() ?>

<?php do_action( ‘bp_link_header_meta’ ) ?>

</div>

and insert <?php if(function_exists(‘selfserv_sexy’)) { selfserv_sexy(); } ?> in between

<?php bp_link_description() ?> and <?php do_action( ‘bp_link_header_meta’ ) ?>

Thats it select the bookmark sites you want and ta da!

my first contribution, I feel giddy.
