BuddyPress.org

That’s not really a buddypress question, more of a bbpress question. If you’re using the one click install group forums, you wouldn’t be able to use any plugins anyway. The only way to use a plugin for this would be to use the external bbpress integration.

Has there been a plug-in developed to allow for this? Especially one that will work with 1.2?

Great thing – Grosbouff!

I tried it in my testinstall and the following experiences I made:

1. I couldn’t post a classified from the frontend – gave me a 400 error (could be, that it’s just me?!)

2. Posted from backend (created a post in the blog)

3. “All classifieds” in the directory says (0) – but there is one! All the other “tags” I created say (1) although I only posted it in one of them (“sachen”).

4. The advanced search doesn’t really work correctly: When I try to filter, it just ignores my setting.

5. When I click on a category-link underneath a classified – it jumps to the filtering, but shows nothing (although there for sure is one classified with that categorie

6. The design in the advanced search seems a little messed up in FIrefox 3.6 (the gray menu stops in the middle of the page)

7. The classified-activity doesn’t show up in the activity-stream. Not even, when I set the blog visible for everybody (also google)

8.The menu in the single-classified-view is underneath the text. Is that on purpose? The “Start” is empty… (should there be something)

So far my experienced “bugs” (if they are any…)

Further comments:

1. I like it very much!!!

2. Great idea with the ability to make tags dynamically showing up as tabs!

3. In my opinion it would be crucial that classified activity shows up in the activity-stream (in BP1.2 that is THE central point!)

4. The classifieds should have the possibility to react. I would recommend the same functions as any activity-item (comments, favorite) –>maybe that’s hard, because those are actually blogposts?

5. Pictures are very important (as mercime said). It is important to have the possibility to add pictures!

6. It should be translatable – but maybe that’s already in there, for your language is french . I would need german…

Thanks for your great job so far! I am really looking forward to it, et je te dire: merci beaucoup!!!

This is not a BuddyPress question. This was introduced in a recent version of WPMU. I am closing this thread; if you need further information, please visit the WMPU forums.

Same trouble when i want to create a topic: “Fatal error: Cannot redeclare checked() in /home/vhosts/siteurl/wp-admin/includes/template.php on line 380”

WordPress-MU 2.9.1.1 + BuddyPress 1.1.3 (new installation)

Install WP/MU as a directory.

Directory install, is it in root.

BuddyPress install come with a copy of bbPress built-in

Active plugins: “rus-to-lat”

Using the standard BuddyPress theme.

I didn’t modify the core files.

You can’t out of the box

Email Login & Randomized User URLs

check out the following link for the solution:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/email-login-randomized-user-urls-solution

When a user goes to register, they get to type in an email and a password.

Their ‘username’ field is hidden.

The code will randomly generate a URL for the person like below:

mem12345abcdefghijklmnopqrst

so their URL would be

http://www.yoursite.com/members/mem12345abcdefghijklmnopqrst

Freeing up the good names like John and Smith to be created manually by an administrator.

thekmen and I have done this with Hybrid as the parent theme and our own child theme built on a Hybrid Child theme and Buddypress. Have a look at http://themehybrid.com/community/topic/hybrid-and-buddypress for the functions that need to move over at least for Hybrid. It was actually quite easy. My post at http://themehybrid.com/community/topic/hybrid-and-buddypress#post-2506 is as close to a step by step as I’ve seen. However, there are still more CSS tweaks needed after following those steps.

Woops, wasn’t reading correctly. Well work the other way around then.

Add the files that your theme doesn’t have and start using bp functions.

Hi Grosbouff, just saw your post. Have to leave again, will be back later tonight and check it out.

========== Continued ==========

Using 1.2 bp-default theme. Based on roles set in classified settings page, I allowed contributors upward to post classified ads.

Posting Classified Ads from BP frontend

1. Clicked on Classifieds on Main Nav.

2. In Classified Ads Directory Page – click on Create A Classified

2.1 – Classified Details – page has fields for Title and Description, then click on “Create Classified and Continue

2.2 – Classified Setttings – page has list of categories created per classified component instruction via special new blog and field box where you could add tags, and click on “Next Step”

2.3 – Classified Invites – page where you can send invites to other members re classifieds, click on “Finish”

Classified Ad Entry posted appears in Classified Ad Directory Page. The ad was also posted on the special new blog as post entry per my check. In addition, under member Profile Page, there’s now a link “My Classifieds” listing all entries posted in Classified Ads.

Posted Classified Entry from Special Blog Created for the plugin component

– Tested posting from the special blog to see if it appears in the BP-installed site. It Does.

Also, when you post the listing from the special blog, the tags show up in the Classified Directory Page and in single Classified Ad Entry page

Other Notes:

1. Classified Ad Entries do not appear in Activity Streams of Member nor Home Page

2. Site Admin should delete Hello World first post in new private blog set up for classifieds – if not configured to delete before

3, Created Blog for Classifieds plugin Settings > Privacy was set to Block Google but allow online visitors – but the special blog is showing up in Blogs Directory even when Site Admin is logged out.

4. Single page for a Classified Ad Entry – does not have navigation back to list of classifieds or have a “Reply” field box for possible interested clients.

5. Categories chosen and Tags added during set up of Classified Ad Entry, are not showing up anywhere in Classified Directory Page or single page of the Classified Entry.

6. Feature Request: ability to upload even a small single 150×150 image to go along with the classified ad entry.

Great job, Grosbouff. Thank you for continuing development on this component. Really Cool.

Email login plugin. Lose the username field by making it type=”hidden” on register.php and autogenerating a username value using a trick like this one.

Yep, basically since buddypress is a plugin it should work as a plugin and other blogs should have the choice to use it or not, or as the webmaster, you should be able to choose which blogs have it and which blogs don’t. Seems like a simple idea. I’ve spent weeks on this as well.

But your approach seems to be in the right direction. $blogusers = get_users_of_blog(); Are you using one template or multiple templates for each site?

That’s the exact opposite of what he needs though.

This is pretty old, since 1.2 doesn’t have wire anymore, but it’s almost the same.

If you put up the multiblog setup correctly then there should be no problem with double data. I have a test network running with 3 blogs, the main having buddypress installed and even a single bbpress install.

3.0 is available for testing in trunk. A very rough timeline is April. If you could specify what things you wanted, I can certainly tell you if they;re coming in 3.0 or not.

Hi Grosbouff, thank you. I auto-installed your plugin to test installation. Cannot activate plugin. Double-checked server, buddypress-classifieds folder is there but it is double-nested.

Fixed double-nesting. Went to Plugins > Install. In addition to BuddyPress Classifieds Plugin, I also activated the new BuddyPress Classifieds Roles & Capabilities Plugin sitewide. But there is still a nag – “There is a new version of BuddyPress Classifieds Roles & Capabilities Plugin URI: http://dev.benoitgreant.be/2010/02/01/buddypress-classifieds …”

Moved classifieds theme to my bp-1.2 child theme in wp-content/themes/mercime-bp12child/classifieds.

Created new blog named bpclassified tests; set Privacy settings, set categories like Backpack, Tents, Shirts, Shorts, etc.

In admin BuddyPress > Classified settings

a. Options Page

– input the blog ID of special classified ads blog

– input days active

– “If you want special tags (e.g. : propositions, offers) to sort your classifieds, put their ids here – comma-separated” – so I wrote some tags like : new, used, giveaway, red, blue, black

– Checked option for Auto-suggest Tags

b. Roles and Capabilities.

– Very Nice.

Question, there is no Site Admin or Admin Role there, so do I assume that Keymaster ala forums is for Site Admin, correct?

c. System Reset – great add-on thanks.

d.Support and Donate page – cool.

So all settings saved. Went to front page and see that “Classifieds” is now part of the main navigation menu in 1.2 bp-default theme.

======= got to leave for a while, will be back later to continue with results of test =======
