Hi
New to Buddy Press, Liking it, just getting my head around it.
I’m using Bp Album+ plugin, I have incorporated my theme code into the bp template pack so it all displays fine.
Except I cant seem to find the template file that loads Bp-Album+ content after you click the Album link in the profile of the user. Its the last template files I need to add my template code to and I cant seem to find where I should be tinkering with it.
Probably a simple answer.. but assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks.Hi all,
I’ve Buddypress Docs installed on my Buddypress site and I’ve added a new document to it and it seems there is no way that all the other registered users can view it on my site.
How am I meant to make the documents viewable?
Your advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Tim
@John James Jacoby
I need to check into that.I believe I am.
what about default theme?? can some of us start developing some examples then you guys can pick the best one
@JJJ: Yeah I thought about the performance implications. Although I must say that the opinions about this are vastly different. a few http requests might make it slower, but these days that might not a big deal if theme development would be a lot easier. Actually combining adminbar.css, reset.css and using style.css for the base layout would solve this problem
Shortcodes: Nice! I’ll look into that.. well I’ll ask @imath. Can’t program
Supporter: Yeah it needs work and a lot of effort and planning.. sounds like a challenge
CSS
Decoupling the CSS into smaller pieces seems like it would go against the cardinal rule of minimizing HTTP requests to speed up page load times. Having everything turned on would load up 10 separate CSS files, just for the theme itself. They’d naturally be enqueued hierarchically so they cascade correct, so if one of them hangs for some reason, you end up with theme spaghetti.I’d suggest giving this a shot and comparing the speed differences with BP trunk on your average web host account to see what the real-world impact would be. If it’s negligible or we can minimize the impact, I’m for it. Would be nice to separate it into structure, colors, etc… too.
Shortcodes
check out how the bbPress plugin is incorporating shortcodes, and how it’s theme compatibility works to get a head start on what will get ported into BuddyPress core in the near future (after 1.3) – I’m filtering the_content() and loading template parts in an output buffer, to inject bbPress forums into *any* existing WordPress theme with a page.php template file (with appropriate measures taken to minimize conflicts, etc…)Supporter
The Supporter idea is neat, but doesn’t sound so much directly related to BuddyPress core. In the past, these kinds of donation based tasks don’t usually raise enough money for the hours of development that are involved in making something happen. Plus, who holds the money in escrow, who handles taxes and payouts, etc… It all gets really complicated, so you have your work cut out for you there.
