workin’ on it…

your best shot will be at their official website, not here…

@pcwriter,

I have the same plugin. What changes did you need to make and move the template? I checked my install and I don’t see what files need to be copied for it to work. What do you mean by this statement? “There’s no plugin-template in BP1.2. So simply copy-paste the one from BP1.1.3, add in the content & padder divs, add in the call for the sidebar and upload that file to your theme. It works beautifully.” Can you pm me how you set it up so I can get this running again on my site?

Thanks for the help!

not according to this – Version: 0.9.6.4

@Dfa327 and everyone else too,

Just thought I’d chime in here with some comments on buddypress-ajax-chat. I purchased the premium version a while back and had Dave install it on my original BP1.1.3 site and it worked flawlessly across the whole network.

I’ve now installed BP1.2 and only had to make a slight modification so the main chat would work. There’s no plugin-template in BP1.2. So simply copy-paste the one from BP1.1.3, add in the content & padder divs, add in the call for the sidebar and upload that file to your theme. It works beautifully.

There’s only one feature that I haven’t managed to get working yet: invite Username. “Username” is not recognized. I take this as an opportunity to dive in and learn a bit about how this stuff works. If I can debug it myself… hooray for me!

By the way, the shoutbox works just fine across all blogs of the network in BP1.2, although I haven’t had the opportunity to test it with multiple members ‘cuz I don’t have any yet

@ashfame:

I recognize you from the bbPress forums, so I know you know your way around WP/bb!

It shouldn’t take long for you to get up to speed with BP.

4) Re: modifying menu bar – you don’t need to hack the core file.

Read this:

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

You can put custom code in /wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php to override settings and variables.

7) Blacklisting usernames in WPMU – login to the WPMU backend, navigate to “Site Admin > Options”, look for the “Banned Names” field.

There are also some good how-to guides as well:

Also read up on the global $bp variable:

Hope that brings you up to speed!

i filled in everything http://img.skitch.com/20100217-p84sftggrt6fq26pfkbhrq5x3c.gif

thats not an error you have to fill in the title and description

@idotter

Did you select a category for the link?

great thx … but i still have this “Please fill in all of the required fields” -Error

@Mike Pratt : Bowob only requires to 1. install the plugin after that it shows on all subdomains and the main site at the footer. It takes 5 minutes to get up and running.

It also works fast and at the bowob site you have a configuration panel where you can set the admin, set to see the leave/join messages and so on. Users love it.

They have a problem currently however that if a user has a blog and he is signed in that the bowob bar will not appear. It will appear for other users and users who are not signed in. They are working on that.

So… I’m also putting in comet chat in between. This will be probably this week.

But.. I must say that arrowchat also looks nice. I cant wait however for that one to go live.

Has buddymatic been updated for BP 1.2?

Just testing this right now.

A couple of bugs:

-Right now, I have no links. I create a link, then head on over to the BP activity stream homepage and select “My Links”. Next, I decide I want to delete this one link, so I delete it and head back to the BP activity stream homepage. Because I deleted my only link, there is no active tab on the BP activity stream homepage and therefore, no activity is displayed. It should default back to the “All Members” tab.

-On the Links directory page, the time for my created link is off by 8 hours. It’s correct in the activity stream though.

-If you’re on the BP activity stream page, and you click on the “My Links” tab, if the filter isn’t set to “No Filter” or one of the other link filters, nothing will show up. This isn’t really a bug due to the way the dropdown filter is implemented in BP, but it’s not great usability-wise.

A couple of requests:

-On the Links directory page, is it possible to add a delete or admin button right next to the “comments” link for link owners or site admins?

I tweaked this for my needs. It now takes the ugly slugs and replaces hyphens with spaces and capitalizes the words. It also throws in a few titles for custom pages and my custom taxonomy.

function bpdev_blog_title($complete_title,$title_old){

global $bp,$current_blog,$wp_query,$post;

if ( bp_is_blog_page() ) {//if this is blog page

if ( is_single() ) {

$title = __($post->post_title, 'buddypress' );

} else if ( is_category() ) {

$cat = ucwords( str_replace("-", " ", $wp_query->query_vars['category_name'] ) );

$title = __( 'Topics | ' . $cat, 'buddypress' );

} else if ( is_tag() ) {

$tag = ucwords( str_replace("-", " ", $wp_query->query_vars['tag'] ) );

$title = __( 'Tags | ' . $tag, 'buddypress' );

} else if ( is_tax() ) {

$tax = ucwords( str_replace("-", " ", $wp_query->query_vars['term'] ) );

$title = __( 'Issues | ' . $tax, 'buddypress' );

} else if ( is_home() ) {

$title = __( 'Archives' );

} else if ( is_page( 'issues' ) ) {

$title = __( 'Issues' );

} else if ( is_page( 'topics' ) ) {

$title = __( 'Topics' );

}



if ( defined( 'BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG' ) ) {

$blog_title = get_blog_option( $current_blog->blog_id, 'blogname' );

} else {

$blog_title = get_blog_option( BP_ROOT_BLOG, 'blogname' );

}

if(!empty($title)) return $blog_title . ' | ' . esc_attr( $title );

}

//so on blog home page, It will show Blog, reason we have excluded that page

return $complete_title;

}

Hi,

I haven’t touched buddypress-ajax-chat since the last release pretty much, but I’m interested to know what doesn’t work so that I can fix it. You said widgets don’t work? Can you tell me more?

R-a-y log outputs? Do you php or javascript?

Just send me the bugs, lol!!!!

1.2 RC3 had this problem. It should be fixed in 1.2 final.

Delete the entire /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/ folder

Redownload 1.2 final and upload the same folder.

Hi Liz

Just to clarify, BuddyPress is a plugin which works on regular WP or WPMU. You can disable and enable all or any part of it at anytime; so if you decide it’s not for you, it doesn’t wreck your site.

If you install BuddyPress 1.2 right from the plugin installer, and switch to the default theme, you’ll have a full-featured BuddyPress up-and-running on your existing site. Then you can play around and work on integrating the new BuddyPress pages into your theme (there are growing numbers of threads and documentation on how to do this).

I’d suggest testing and developing BuddyPress on a test version of your site, not the live one Also as a FYI, you can test BuddyPress at http://testbp.org/.
