KeymasterYou ought to be able to use the ‘bp_located_template’ filter to be able to find templates within the plugin’s folder. Let me know if you get stuck.

Participant@ Aufumy: The only paid registration system that comes close to your request is the “Supporter” plugin over at wpmu-dev. It’s a paid plugin though.

ParticipantDid you install it on a local server/pc? I have wpmu + buddypress + bbpress running on my pc here and it’s working great. Perhaps your router blocks outgoing connections?

ParticipantOK, progress. It’s in bp-core-templatetags.php
if ( function_exists( ‘bp_blogs_install’ ) ) {
$selection_box .= ‘<option value=”blogs”>’ . __( ‘Blogs’, ‘buddypress’ ) . ‘</option>’;
}
I can delete that, but any idea how to configure this so that the drop down allows a search of posts, rather than blogs?

I am wondering if buddypress has support for a paid registration system.

KeymasterI’d ultimately love to see things go in that direction, and have been sifting through code the past few days thinking of how to get more red in the trac than green.
However, if this was the case, and activity had a component scope and a serialized array of return values, then you could replace private messaging with a threaded activity stream that only the users involved in that thread can view. You could send activity to multiple groups at a time, or only 1, or all of your groups, or the entire site, or any other registered components serialized set of values that mean whatever they mean.
You can almost replace the notifications class all together too, because if you take a count of the number of activities a user has directed at them and store it in usermeta, when the user returns if that number is higher, there’s your total notifications. Filter those new activities and now you can see how many of each. Actually, the code already exists within both WP and BP to do this.
In that regard, the activity stream does start to replace core communication components like forums, private messages, status updates, notifications, and the wire. At that same time, BuddyPress becomes less about separate components with their own API’s and classes and subsets of functions, but more about creating new methods for users to interact with each other in specific scopes of communication.
You could take things like twitter lists and make them work both ways, where you could send a message/comment/update/picture to only specific users instead of only viewing tweets from users. You could create an endless array of ways and names for collaborative tools to develop the platform from within the platform. It’s basically the blog post_types concept attached to people’s activity instead of re-categorizing blog posts.
The way to further develop groups would need a whole new topic, but I’ve got some ideas for that too.

@mrmaz, what you propose is the fundamentals of how I’ve approached my development before finding WP; start with small basic classes and work my up in functionality. There very easily could be a basic “bp_component” class where every new component just extends off of that, and sets the needed vars and assigns the needed functions accordingly.

ParticipantI don’t think it will necessarily replace the other components, but what it will do is handle all of the generic functionality that is now handled by the components themselves. Since each component might handle it a little bit differently, it is difficult to get them all to play nice with each other.
What is being proposed is that all of the complexities of the inner guts of buddypress start to move more towards the heart of the app, so new components and plugins don’t have to worry about implementing so many redundant functions. Recording activity and updating meta data are two obvious ones, but avatar handling is another. Even though there are core functions to handle most of this, you still have to create a bunch of wrapper functions in order to support filters and actions, etc. Just some basic polymorphism would elimiate thousands of lines of code. Imagine instead of copying pasting 30 functions, you just extend the class and define your slug in the slug() method, and then whenever you call a parent class method, all of them automagically store your data the right way for you.
In the future if a new component comes along that has some cool functionality that all other components can benefit from, then this could be refactored “up” into the activity component, or whatever it ends up being called, so the new functionality could become instantly available to everything else.

ParticipantWhat I wonder as I look at this is wouldn’t it be easier to take a robust plugin for wordpress and make it work well with MU/Buddypress. That seems like a better place to start, especially if the original author can point you to the right places in the code.
I mean the functionality of a good calendar plugin should be pretty well understood at this point. Priorities and roadmap might be trickier, but the end goal should exist in the PHP if not WordPress world.
This raises my recurring question of how hard is it to turn a quality PHP script into a good plugin.

Keymaster@ron/@maz@andy, I think that’s the way to go, and not unlike what already happens in terms of how activity gets in there.
I do like the idea of private messages going in there too… Huh.
Is it possible Andy that you just made one component to eliminate all the others? haha! I mean really if components can register themselves, then there’s no need for an activitymeta table, since the very act of interacting with an activity stream is in itself an activity. Think of the traditional facebook like/dislike setup. When I “dislike” a comment, that creates an activity that I disliked it, which is attached to the activity item I disliked.
It’s rather genius in a way. Huh again…

KeymasterWhen you say you want a seperate forum install, what *exactly* do you mean/want as a result?
Do you want a different theme or user interface to access the forums? Do you want it to be like a traditional forum site rather than BuddyPress’ group interface?

ParticipantNo, running two forums within buddypress and use one as a native bbpress install and the other one for the group forums, is impossible (unless you want to code a lot). If you want them inside the activity for example, you’ll have to write a code to let it send it’s activity to the buddypress activity db.

ParticipantSeeing scam plugins like this more and more, saw an addvertisement plugin that placed a few of it’s own advertisements and a donations plugin which took part of the money. Plugins should be checked better, before being used.

ParticipantThanks for taking the time to explain your method. I originally thought of doing something similar, but I was a little worried about breaking the flow of how WP “hunts” for templates. In BP (and buddypress links) there are lots of calls to locate_template(), and I haven’t yet taken the time to learn exactly how this works too see if what you suggest causes any problems.
I also have a bunch of calls to bp_core_load_template() that I want to get rid of.
It is encouraging that you have an established plugin that works using a custom locate technique, so I think I might do the same in the next iteration.
STYLESHEETPATH is a sweet constant, I only wish there was one for get_stylesheet_directory_uri()

ParticipantMrMaz, the bp-groupblog plugin uses an unorthodox technique. It does exactly what you mention. It works from the plugin folder, but if the theme folder gets moved to the ACTIVE theme folder it will prioritize.
It does something like the following for template files:
<?php
function groupblog_screen_blog_content() {
global $bp, $wp;
if ( file_exists( STYLESHEETPATH . '/groupblog/blog.php' ) )
load_template( STYLESHEETPATH . '/groupblog/blog.php' );
else
load_template( WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/bp-groupblog/groupblog/blog.php' );
}
?>
I’m using STYLESHEETPATH since that finds the file for the active theme. I prefer to stuff theme files in the active theme, just in case people may or may not a parent/child theme.
Hope this can help. I hear good things about your plugin, can’t wait to try it.

Participantnot really. Since this is a buddypress forum, you may get shouts from anyone here for asking a wpmu theme.So please be aware of that

Now, Just the wpmu details.
Is it a fresh install.
which version
subdirectory/vs subdomain, any error log.
custom plugins/themes used.
That should suffice.

ParticipantI agree it is annoying having to manually move the theme files. Have you actually put them in bp-sn-parent/ and it worked? I have never tried that! I have designed it so the folder goes in your “default” or customized default theme.
There are two issues with your proposal for automatic moving.
1. If the links dir goes into bp-sn-parent, what happens when buddypress gets updated?
2. If it goes into your main theme, how will I know that I am not overwriting any customizations you have made?
I think the long term solution is to keep the links theme files in the plugin directory, and auto-detect if any custom files were put in your theme folder, but I am not sure if and how that would work.
If anyone has done this successfully with buddypress, please give me a shout!

ParticipantSo update on twitme plugin for BP.
From the developer ” Twitme for BP doesnt have a such big interface as Twitme for wordpress it self. It will ask for your settings + sent Wires yes / no ?. “
