Install the backwards compatibility plugin, also, read the upgrade instructions.

Install the backwards compatibility plugin and your theme should work.

Doesn’t seem to do anything on my test installs either.

Its not working for me either!

I added my subdomain to whitelist too

I have determined my problem is due to the fact that I upgraded to 1.2 and my custom these is 1.1.x compatible.

Where can I find a guide for what needs to be changed in my theme to make it 1.2 compatible, because when I go to my site it doesnt show the frontpage anymore but goes straight to the Groups Page.

I can’t even view some of the other pages either.

If you go the link page of a specific link and no one has added any comments yet, it shows that their is no activity found on the link. Even if you voted for the link and that activity is displayed on the main activity feed for the site.

I installed on WP single 2.9.1, BP 1.2 and the plugin is not working. I added a youtube link into the “Post update” activity box and it just posts the link. Not the actual video.

i added the whitelist code to bp-oembed-config.php with my domain name included but it didn’t change anything.

I am not getting any errors either. most bizarre!

Just downloaded and installed 1.2 release and I get the same error message as above.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_is_front_page() in /usr/home/example/public_html/wp-content/themes/bp-default/header.php on line 47

Nothing shows. Only the blue header and the error message.

Try all the obvious.

in bp-activity-templatetags.php within the buddypress plugin folder, I found the following ‘scopes’:

if ( 'just-me' == $scope || 'friends' == $scope || 'groups' == $scope || 'favorites' == $scope || 'mentions' == $scope ) {

Each of these has a case and it discribes which scope needs to grab each activity feed.

So now all we need to know is how to set a scope within lets say the “activity-loop.php” in your theme folder and then it will grab the “friends” scope and the “friends” activity feed.

I don’t know how or where to call the scope but I’m going to take a wild guess and say that it’s here:

<?php if ( bp_has_activities( bp_ajax_querystring( 'activity' ) ) ) : ?>

Within activity-loop.php.

Let me know if this helped, or just confused everyone.

Thanks

Question… I’ve got my theme working that did it. Thanks.

My theme DOES NOT show the nav bar like in the default BuddyPress theme. I tried copying the code from the header section of the BuddyPress theme, but I got a function error after.

Any ideas of how to add the BuddyPress Nav to the theme?

does not work on WP single 2.9.2 no auto embed and the permalink page ends up blank. Also you can only deactivate plugin via deleting folder. Hitting deactivate in admin causes white page

This is gonna be really tricky especially if you didn’t backup your DB. Have you tried running 1.2 with the Backwards Compatibility Plugin?

BP 1.1.3 is available here:

I’m afraid there isn’t a definitive answer yet.

Loving the new version, MrMaz, on my BP1.2 testbed. So slick. No bugs yet, but I’ll be sure to let you know as I mess around with 1.2 if any appear.

See here

https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/1947

Does anybody know if it’s already a known issue with activity stream in BP 1.2-final – content that loaded by clicking “more” button (through AJAX I suppose) completely untranslatable (buttons like Reply, Favorite, delete links, “more” button itself etc.). At least at my particular installation. Did anyone experience the same problem? Should it be reported?

I’m not so good in AJAX so I’m relying on default theme and could not provide the sufficient feedback on that, but it seems that some text are hardcoded in JS and didn’t affected by texdomain file.

I’ve browsed trac tickets – there’re some concerning the i18n issues but not exactly this as it seems to me.

P.S. @jjj

That’s the great news – about the user language settings – it seems the most appreciated feature in multilingual communities. But is it possible to share some concept – what will it look like and how will itl be integrated with WP internationalization?

I’m asking because I’m developing a plugin that provide this language setting functionality for registered users… and despite that my code is not as nearly perfect as yours I’d be happy to help somehow or al least I’d like to know that my own work is not going in completely wrong direction… thanks in advance

@MrMaz

Installed in a snap and it works perfectly.. well, almost. I found only one, very minor bug.

After creating 6 links (5 from YouTube and 1 ppt file on my server), I created a link to an mp3 file on my server, opened the link in a new window using Quicktime, closed that window and went to view the links in my profile.

I could find only the mp3 regardless of the filter used. While the Links tab in my profile showed (7), the counter below the My Links title showed “Viewing 1 to 1 (of 1 link)”.

In order to see all links in my profile after linking the mp3, it was necessary to go back to the Links Directory and select one from there. Then all 7 were visible.

Like I say, it’s minor as I don’t think many people (if any!) are going to link to individual mp3s hosted on external sites. (But I wanted to test it anyway.)

Login to your WPMU backend, navigate to “Buddypress > General settings”.

Go to “Disable activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts?” And select “Yes”.
