Oh, that’s great news!
Thanks Mr Maz and Brajesh.

Thanks for pointing

hi Daniel
This is related to theme not to the bp-links plugin. If you feel comfortable with css/xhtml, just use plugin-template.php as a base and create all the files in links directory based on that.
I am currently busy with a plugin and will be back to this theming again after that only, so if you can wait for 3-4 days, I will provide templates for bp-links/bp-events+updated cosmicbuddy for free [which I promised long ago there].
Otherwise, if someone have already templated cosmicbuddy for bp-events/bp-links, please point here.
Thanks
Brajesh
@webbimperiet
It appears that your theme is not compatible with the links plugin. Your best bet is to contact the author of the theme for help or have them customize it for you.
@MrMaz
Ok, I see. I’ve attached two screenshots so you can see how it looks. http://footballfantalk.com/links1.png and http://footballfantalk.com/links2.png.
Would really appreciate your help. I can give you ftp-access if that would make it easier for you to help me. However, I understand if you don’t have time.
Kind regards,
Daniel
I think if installed/activated they shouldn’t even show up.
That would be nice.
I first used BuddyPress/WPMU in 2007 and I must admit this part of the software has come a long way. When I first started themes and templates were very limited. It’s nice to see this section with tons of themes now it’s really great.
hello, i was wondering exactly the same thing !
I think it can be very usefull and in fact it can help to make buddy press more clear.
Or maybe the ability to create category for put group inside !
Cause if your buddypress community is very big and lots of people create group we will have a terrible mix of all and we can be lost…
example: a category for group called music
and inside some groups like: rock, pop, alternative, jazz etc…
general forum for category and sub forums for groups inside can be very usefull too
I don’t now really how to do this but if someone think it can be done let me now !
thanks in advance

well I mean, the complete
<div class="widget-error">
<?php _e( 'Please log in and
add widgets to this column.', 'buddypress' ) ?>
<a href="<?php echo
get_option('siteurl') ?>/wp-admin/widgets.php?s=&show=&sidebar=blog-sidebar">
<?php _e( 'Add Widgets', 'buddypress' ) ?></a>
</div>
Should be replaced by your custom code.
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar')
|| !dynamic_sidebar('blog-sidebar') ) : ?>
<div class="widget-error">
<?php _e( 'Please log in and
add widgets to this column.', 'buddypress' ) ?>
<a href="<?php echo
get_option('siteurl') ?>/wp-admin/widgets.php?s=&show=&sidebar=blog-sidebar">
<?php _e( 'Add Widgets', 'buddypress' ) ?></a>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
@surfartculture: members can add widgets to their member blogs automatically by going to their dashboards. That’s how BuddyPress works. You can make a test member blog and just switch the theme and members can add all the widgets they want. Do you know how to get to the member dashboard? Cruise through the top menu, you’ll find it.
Let’s keep this thread on topic, OK?
This thread is for how to hard code a sidebar. I am looking for where to put the right code.
If you want your users to be able to create a blog and have it be tracked then use MU, otherwise use WP. There is no difference other than that.
@webbimperiet
That create link should be showing up regardless of the theme, unless there is something with the cosmicbuddy theme that is modifying the profile menus.
First of all, really nice plugin.
My problem is that I’m using the Cosmicbuddy theme and it really doesn’t look good. For example, there is not create new link button in the profile, all the other link alternatives are there except from that one.
If I instead go through the Buddypress menu I can create a link but the create-form needs some CSS-improvement.
If anyone can help me out I’m willing to pay 30$ through Paypal. Contact me, daniel@footballfantalk.com, thanks!

Thank you. What about the second question then – if I need to dig in the code or create my own plugin, where do I start?
Has anyone worked with the forum plugin enough to point me in the right direction?
(Let me add to this – I’m a php programmer, and I’ve done some small WP plugin work in the past. I’m new to all the WPMU and Buddypress files and am looking for a little help with a quick start, as I’m just trying to help a friend get something finished quickly and don’t have time to learn the code properly. Any quick notes or “watch outs” are appreciated.
In compensation, if I manage this and make a plugin/modification, I’ll be happy to release it to the community )
Just disable it from the BuddyPress admin menu and all of the user blog links/pages will disappear.
This has been discussed here, with some solutions – that I haven’t tried yet…
There’s a plugin available for bp (not yet for 1.2). It requires wp-multilingual.
TO: Anyone who is getting the “Please fill in all of the required fields” error after upgrading.
I am 99% sure this is because you didn’t update the required links theme files in your theme.
Triple check to make sure that you copy the /../plugins/buddypress-links/links directory into /../themes/bp-default/
If your theme has a different name than bp-default, copy into that directory instead. If you customized the theme files, you should backup the exisiting folder BEFORE you copy.
In the next version I am going to make the necessary changes so there doesn’t need to be any more of this pita copying of files every upgrade
Not so much your theme, but compare the 1.1 default BuddyPress theme http://dangerous-minds.org to the 1.2 theme http://testbp.org/. 1.2 also has the following big features:
Standard WordPress support (not just MU)
Activity stream threaded commenting.
Ability to mark an activity stream item as a favorite.
Activity stream item permalinks.
Advanced activity stream filters.
New default theme with improved usability and customization options
There have been some template tag changes (incl. the template tag loops), I would advise you get a copy of the 1.1 default and 1.2 default theme, look at the changes and apply them to your site. There’s no documentation written yet.
@DJPaul
Thanks, I’ll give it a go. =]
If I may ask, what’s the difference between the BuddyPress I have and this “trunk version”?
This sort of request for help is why we have this thread -> https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/when-asking-for-support
Oh, and to answer your question, yes, there’s a base theme. You can create a child theme to get started straight away.
What I suggest you do is on a test site is install the current trunk version of BP 1.2 (https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset/2400/trunk?old_path=%2F&format=zip or if you know how to use SVN, https://svn.buddypress.org/trunk/). The new theme, as seen on http://testbp.org/ is called bp-default and you will find it in /buddypress/bp-themes/ however you do NOT need to move this to wp-content/themes/.
You can just build your new child theme as usual and put it in wp-content/themes/ and Bob’s your uncle

@MrMaz
I have the same problem like as PH (porsche). My site works on WPMU 2.8.6 and BP 1.1.3. I sent you a PM with link to my phpinfo().
If you can wait about two weeks, you’ll be able to use BuddyPress on your regular WordPress site!

To create forums, you need to create a group with discussion forum enabled.
Reiterating what Bowe posted – “a clear explanation to the users between their buddypress profile and blog dashboard would be nice” [very very very nice]
Encapsulates what could be one to two Pages of explanation of text and graphics to users into one full-width page of your screencast with full credit and link to your site
Cheers.
