BuddyPress.org

Integrate bbPress with WPMU first. Then disable groups and forums in BuddyPress. No need to go through BuddyPress’ Forums setup.

This tutorial worked for me:

It’s a little old, but the basic premise is the same.

One bug I just noticed, if you check a user’s profile activity (eg. example.com/members/admin), only the links activity is shown. All other activity is gone.

@nickmy

you are corrent, this is a bug:

I just posted the following as a Forum-Title and it shows strange and is also linking to the page:

Do not use the stars at beginning and at the end of the HTML-code.

<a* href=”http://www.heise.de”>Heise<*/a&gt;

submitted as TRAC-ticket:

https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/1902

nickmy is right:

Images aren’t filtered out from the topic title.

I bet we don’t need to do “deep integration” anymore, we just need to figure out what additional code to add to whatever file it is that BuddyPress uses to display the forums page.

I’d really appreciate a code sample.

Cheers,

Dainis

Please help! See above, where John James Jacoby said one month ago,

Which version of BP? This will be fixed in 1.2 as I think it’s just a missing or incorrectly named action.

Yet we are up to v1.2-RC2, and issue still persists. Is a fix in the works? Admin should be able to delete a user and have the option to remove ALL their posts from the site, whether they be blog comments, Group activity stream posts, or Forum topics and replies.

This issue is related to this topic I started about Admin and Moderator abilities to delete Forum topics and have them be removed from all places on the site: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/forum-user-roles-and-moderator-ability-bp-12-rc2-wp-291

Hi, also have an issue with this.

I don’t get any error messages, just bar at top of page not working with LDAP authenticated users.

On investigation I think it’s to do with the username. Our LDAP usernames use the following syntax:

firstname.lastname

I tried and BuddyPress doesn’t work with usernames with a full stop in the middle whether LDAP or local.

Any ideas for workarounds?

MrMaz: Latest bleeding version of BP Links works beautifully! And even on a subdirectory install of BP. Works well and the AJAX for grabbing the avatar and item description is way cool!

Couple of suggestions:

-On the Links Directory page, for each BP link, can you remove the “Home” hyperlink, I don’t see the difference between clicking on that and clicking the “Comments” hyperlink

-When you’re on a BP link, you see two tabs: “Home” and “Admin” (if you have the privileges to do so). Can you rename “Admin” to “Edit”? I think the word “edit” makes more sense.

-Minor thing: In the WP admin area, can you move your “BP Links” settings menu under BuddyPress’ menu?

-Major thing: Is it possible for the activity permalink to display the link avatar and vote panel? (eg. hxxp://example.com/activity/p/RAND-NUM/

–If not, if possible, can you remove the “View” link from the activity comment?

—eg. “Ray posted a comment on the link MYLINK: 2 minutes ago · View · Delete” (remove View)

—Reason why the “View” link should be removed is an activity comment refering to a BP link doesn’t make much sense without the link avatar or vote panel. The user can still click on MYLINK to view all the comments for it.

In addition to what DJPaul said, BuddyPress no longer requires itself to be activated site wide. You can pick and choose which blogs BuddyPress is loaded on in each specific blogs' plugins screen.

When I activate bp on one site, it shows up in the plugins folder as activated site wide. I do not see an option of only activating it on a given blog.

I am running wpmu2.9.1 and bp 1.2beta using subdomains install.

I have also set bp root blog to all sites…. maybe that is the problem?

This site is using a separate bbpress install rather than the BuddyPress inbuilt group forums. That’s why it looks different here.

Sorry, I know that’s not much help for your problem though.

I might be mistaken, but as far as I know there isn’t a ‘global forum moderator’ role in the current version of the BuddyPress forum integration. As such, this could require a plugin to work…

I’m assuming you’re using the normal BuddyPress->bbpress group integration, not a separate install of bbpress?

Did you find what the problem was in the child theme? I am having the EXACT same issue, with the ghost 1969 group creation and everything. In group creation, everything seems to work just fine until the upload avatar page, where the form doesn’t show up.

The only files I have customized are the header and footer templates, and they should have all the important WordPress/Buddypress snippets necessary. Is there something in particular I should be looking for?

found the resolution here:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/adding-content-to-the-12-default-theme-homepage/page/2

guess i wasn’t the only one going crazy with an older home.php with merging the trunk.

@MrMaz No, It’s not installed in a subdirectory. Pretty plain basic install actually nothing strange.

@MrMaz For some reason when I went to test today the voting was working just fine! Not sure why it didn’t work when I tested yesterday.

Two issues I see:

1) Can’t add a link from my profile > Links tab. Not sure if I am supposed to be able to, just seemed like a logical place to do it from,.

2) When I activate the plugin, the activity stream is filtered to show only Link related activity even though the filter is set to “No Filter”. When I de-activate, I can see all my activity (including Link related activity).

Using WP single 2.9.1, latest trunk from BP and bp-default theme.

Thanks!!!

Thanks Chouf1. Seems it’s a buddypress site wide problem

@MrMaz, Would ustream.tv user feeds be automatic adding all of a user’s content from a remote service in the pro version?

Hum, i believe there is a time bug actually with some BP 1.2 install…

search the forum there are some treads about this.

another thing…when you create a new link it shows that you have created the link so many hours ago but it takes the server time so all my links that I create is 4 hours in the past. Is there a workaround to this so that it takes the time setting you have setup in the settings of the wordpress MU settings page?
