Yes, I know fb-auto-connect but not having the option to choose an username on signup is a real bummer. User can change a display name later, but the @ mention name still stays automatically generated facebook “name.surname”…
And I was waiting for buddystream release, but for some reason it doesn’t have single-click sign up options with 3rd party sites…
Can you please help me find a decent plugin with facebook connect functionality?
I need a plugin which can:
– implement facebook connect on my buddypress installation
– when creating user account via facebook connect, allow user to choose desired username (and not autogenerate it based on name or smthn)
– sync user profiles with facebook data and/or avatars with facebook profile pictures
– give user an option to publish their comments and/or other activity on BP website to their facebook walls
– features for users attaching/deattaching their current WP-BP’s account to facebook’s
I am running the latest wordpress and buddypress with several plugins:
BP album+, FB autoconnect, Exec-php, Embed Facebook, Google analyticator, theme-my-login, tiny mce adv, gravity forms and buddypress sitewide activity widget.
I have jquery working on my homepage in the form of a cycle script but cannot get jquery ui to work using tabs. Does anyone have any ideas why I have used the code in several different ways. Any known conflicts or do I have to include ui from wp/bp itself?
Hi,
I’d really like my users to be able to ‘grab’ images from the main site and add them to their personal photo album in their buddypress profile.
For example, If I create a post with images of dresses I’d like members to be able to select the image (image would have an icon or something to let them know they can add it to their profile) and add it to their personal album in their profile without leaving the current page.
Is this possible? Is there existing functionality for this or would I be able to have this developed by someone?
<?php printf( __( "You are not a member of any groups so you don't have any group forums you can post in. To start posting, first find a group that matches the topic subject you'd like to start. If this group does not exist, why not create a new group? Once you have joined or created the group you can post your topic in that group’s forum.”, ‘buddypress’ ), site_url( BP_GROUPS_SLUG . ‘/create/’ ) ) ?>
I was thinking of possibly trying to integrate the Mingle Forum to use as a ‘Global board’ while the groups had their own forums.
You can install and use a WP forum plugin like Mingle Forum, SimplePress, etc. The tricky part is integrating the plugin with BuddyPress i.e. forum posts in Mingle Forum or SimplePress won’t appear in sitewide activity if you do not create a “bridge” script or plugin nor will forum topics posted in BP group forums appear in Mingle or SimplePress forum topc list. If that’s acceptable to you, then using one of WP forum plugins is the way to go for your “global board”
creating a ‘global board/forum’
There is a premium BP-compatible Global Forum plugin working on top of the internal bbPress forum installation http://buddydev.com/plugins/global-forums/
@adrianmaggio and @agck I don’t know to what you’re referring, but I see go to Dashboard > Settings > Reading, and set the “Front page displays” setting to “A static page (select below)”, then choose “Activity Stream” from the “Front Page” drop-down menu. I even tried out a fresh 3.1.1 install. This is how you set the page.
@adrianmaggio When BP 1.3 is released, you’ll be able to easily set the front page using the method I’ve laid out above.
You could try using BuddyPress Custom Posts and modify it to what you need. That’s what EP uses, and it basically attempts to minimally replicate the dashboard for custom post types. (http://code.google.com/p/buddypress-custom-posts/)
@covandy You might take a look at EventPress. It has a lot of potential, but I ran into a usability issue with it. It was just too confusing for the normal user.
First of All thanx to Creating WordPress and then Buddypress..I .
Okay coming to the Point
What i want is I use Limiited Tags and modified my Template to Show Tag Description when browsed post by tag. What i want is to show Follow Topic(Tag) or Get Alerts. so that whenever a new item is posted it shows in follower Profile .
I am not into that programming but i can follow instruction to do it by myself..
Please desperately looking for something like that..another option is using feed of tag and using feedburner to send alert but i dont want to create 500 feed and its just not fine..
I’m trying to work out a way to let my users post from the front end, because it is more user friendly. One Quick Post doesn’t seem to be working at all, it displays an error message. uCan Post works really well, the only problem is that when the user tries to insert an image into the post the default Buddypress Media Uploader is a bit confusing for the average user.
Is there a better plugin for Front End user posting?
Or is there a plugin that makes the Media Uploader more user friendly?
and in case anyone else is reading this thread in the future regarding the in-depth discussion about using db tables or not, I wanted to mention one thing I learned.
You can insert or update the wordpress database – existing tables or your own – using nice built in class functions. for example:
`
$wpdb->mytable = $wpdb->base_prefix . ‘mytable’;
$values = array(
‘col1’ => $myval1,
‘col2’ => $myval2,
);
$wpdb->insert($wpdb->mytable, $values);
`
doing things this way, you gain all the security features of the wordpress database class, and don’t have to work about preparing or escaping the query. it’s done for you. $wpdb->update also exists. more here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wpdb_Class
Hi, I am running WP 3.1.2 and Buddypress 1.2.8
I have been using Eventpress with some success for a few weeks but have a new and unwanted behaviour.
Eventpress is showing posts as events even though they have not been created as events.
Symtoms are on the Events page I get two types of event- ‘My events’ as created via the Events plugin UI which are the ones I have created , and ‘All Events’ which show posts with random avatars applied. How do I stop posts appearing as events?
The problem seemed to go away when I changed “Disable activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts?” to Yes (under BuddyPress General Settings).
Just an FYI, the replies that disappeared were to forum posts, but the notifier email said they were replies to an “update.”
I’d like to also be able to disable activity stream commenting for Updates too, but now I am not sure if that is necessary.
Of course it would be nice to allow activity stream commenting on forum posts…. but I just can’t take the chance that any replies to forums will be lost. The forum is a central feature and selling point for my site.
During the period that this problem started, I had:
+Tried to “connect to WordPress.com” using JetPack button, only got my homepage, looked at the features of JetPack and decided to deactivate and delete it.
+Added, then deleted, the Twitter Connect plugin.
So I guess it’s possible the problem happened in the install and uninstall of those plugins?
Did anyone else here do something similar with their plugins prior to having this problem?
Hi all, I am not familiar with Buddypress so I am asking myself if there is an extension which allows the users of my network to post their posts automatically on Facebook?
I am sorry, I am no english native speaker, but I hope you can understand what I mean
If you wanted to create a unique page that includes a list of your @mentions like on the actual mentions page, would that be possible somehow? I’ve never been able to figure out how Buddypress calls up each list, I’m pretty sure it’s magic.
