    No, this hasn’t been tried yet, because there is no need and it’s still in it’s baby shoes.

    Limitations would be no cross-browser support.

    No oppurtunities, unless offcourse IE suddenly desides to fully support HTML5.

    HTML5 is made to make markup more easy and more readable, therefore your actually use tags that fits it’s content. For example <header> for the header.

    Depending on your audience you don’t necessarily have a choice about IE6. It’s not about you. LOL. I dislike it as much as anyone, but sometimes requirements are requirements. And personally… I’ve never had much problem supporting it. Even with some really far out designs. There are only a few big gottchas and you know that going in and code around it. Simple.

    That said… I have no problem whatsoever with Andy not supporting IE6 in the new theme. That’s his choice and it’s a reasonable one. If you really need to use the new theme and you really need it to work on IE6… well… I guess it’s time to start hacking together a conditional ie6 bug fix stylesheet :)

    D Cartwright: I’ve actually decided already to revert that, I don’t like it now I’ve had chance to use it for a while. I can fit the content in that menu inside of the header for the item.

    I really do like the re-theme, Andy. I hate to say it, but the previous them took up so much real estate on the screen, and the way panels and columns were laid out was pretty difficult to manage with css for making changes in child themes, for example.

    I’m not going to fuss right now since I already built a child them off the parent (see arxpoetica.com), but one of these days I’ll convert over.

    My two cents about IE6, people *really should* be scrapping as much as possible. It’s true that there’s still a substantial amount of people on IE6, and I’m not a hater (well, that’s not entirely true, I do hate IE6, ha), but when there are so much better alternatives to IE6, why continue to support something which, in terms of technology, is 90 years old. (I’m using dog years analogy here: the lifespan of technology is much shorter than humans, so you gotta adjust accordingly).

    IE6 is on its last breath, no question.

    The other thing is that BuddyPress *is* cutting edge, and I imagine people (maybe not the core team, but plugins developers) are going to start folding in HTML5 technology soon to what’s going down here. I know I plan on using such for my site in the not-too-distant future, and while IE is not HTML5 friendly period, and many browsers still have problems, IE6 is just out right the bane.

    People need to realize that its support for IE6 is no longer a normal request. It *should* be a thing of the past, IMHO.

    Please revert your three column change for the group homepages. It was so much better with two columns. One of the major improvements with the new theme was the way the layout didn’t change everytime you clicked somewhere.

    I can understand people’s frustrations but I’m personally very happy with the lack of IE6 support. It means I can have a clean conscience when I don’t support it in any plugins/themes/etc. Luckily at the university here our ITS guys have managed to push through an IE upgrade on the campus computers. It’s only IE7, but it’s still a million miles better than 6 (and the students also get access to firefox and opera).

    Does the bp-classic theme work with IE6?

    @jivany: That is the case in a lot of corporate environments. Maybe that’s what happens when you don’t upgrade your OS for 7 years? Most corporate environments never “upgraded” from XP. And who can blame them!

    The company I work at is 3,000 people and everyone is on XP. The only supported browser is IE6. You’re not even allowed to run 7 or 8. Being a designer… I’m on a Mac. One of only two in the entire place :) LOL. I have every browser under the sun installed. For testing.

    I installed the original and it didn’t work. Haven’t tried the ported version mentioned in this thread.

    I’m with David Lewis. More than reasonable for Andy to skip IE6 for now. As for dropping IE6 completely, my employer’s only “supported” browser is IE6. That’s a 200k+ employee, $30B+ company. Nuts!

    @Erich,

    This plugin doesn’t remove the /groups/ base from the permalink.

    It allows the group admin to change the group slug (which is autogenerated at the moment) to something a bit more palatable.

    Eg.

    domain.com/groups/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-fan-group

    could be changed to something shorter like:

    domain.com/groups/tmnt-fan-group

    or whatever!

    is it possible to change the following URL at my own website from e.g.:

    domain.com/groups/group-name

    towards

    domain.com/group-name

    I would like to have this plugin if this is possible to achieve.

    Many thanks !

    Hmmm, I just installed bbpress in the same db as buddypress.

    When I make a post in the forum, nothing shows in the “Site Wide Activity” stream.

    I want to do it this way so I can have a full forum, and not just the group forums.

    Any thoughts on how to make it work? Did I miss something?

    There are a few older posts talking about the dangers of using one-click install scripts to install WPMU and/or BuddyPress. IMO, if you are going to create a community site, you should take the time to carefully set it up. Toward that end, I place manually installing WPMU and BP as an important first step. You have more control over the process and gain a much better understanding of how your site is configured.

    @KevinHeath

    I’m glad that you’re up and running now after a clean, manual reinstall.

    Why don’t you use the original version of the plugin for bbPress?

    Will this work with an external install of bbpress?

    Haven’t seen the damge on IE6 yet, but I’ll look into it when I have some time.

    Btw, for IE6 users you could also use google chrome frame.

    IE6 is quite broken. :( Comments aren’t showing for example.

    Not great for my intended crowd. They’re a bit older and have got old computers and in those companies.

    I’ve talked with Arx but s/he’s not interested in supporting it either. I’m no CSS-guru but would really like to have some simple compatability with IE6 and BP 1.2.

    Anyone out there?

    It may be worth considering disabling comments on these items and instead providing a link to be able to comment at the location of the original content.

    I would like to see a BuddyPress admin option to disable activity commenting for components we deem not worthy of having it. I would use this option for blog comments and forum posts.

    Although the “live” aspect wouldn’t be fostered, we should only have one focused stream for blog comments and forum posts, rather than the original stream (blog comment, forum replies) and a multiple activity comment stream.

    To Bowe, Mike and whoever else is reading, I put up a ticket with this issue awhile ago – https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/1419

    Feel free to chime in.

    The other issue raised by Mike of auto-joining a group on a forum reply is interesting. On testbp.org, I made a reply to a group forum post and thus, joined the group.

    Then I visited my group activity stream and noticed these new group activity posts in my stream and said to myself “I don’t really want these items in my group stream!”.

    So the issue is if you make a ton of group forum replies to groups that you’re not a member of, your personal group stream will become littered!

    Mike, how do you plan on handling this on your BP site?

    SHouldn’t there be a table wp_bp_activity_sitewide on the installation? I’ve looked in the db but it’s not there. I did the default installation.

    Okay some feedback (I know this is an early release, but bare with me!).

    – When editing the group slug to an already-created group, the current slug should be automatically populated in the text field

    – Allow for templates in the theme directory to be used

    – I’m getting this error:

    function BP_Group_Extension::widget_display() must be over-ridden in a sub-class.

    This error pops up right after the group members loop. Parsing stops after the error. I don’t see the group wire.

    This is the steps I made to duplicate this:

    – Create a new group up to step 1, exit the rest of the group creation process.

    – View any group and the error appears.

    Deactivating the plugin reverts things to normal.

    <offtopic>IE6 is already 9 years of age and already updated by two more crapy browsers again (IE7 & IE8), imho drop it if your users like it or not and let them switch to a product which is more compliant (ex: Safari, FireFox or Chrome)

    Sounds reasonable. My opinion is that we’re not QUITE at the point yet where we can completely ignore IE6. I’m fine with aesthetic issues… but I believe web sites still need to be reasonably functional in IE6. They shouldn’t break completely. I haven’t look at the new theme in IE6 yet.
