BuddyPress.org

Topic renamed to make the purpose clearer and marked the topic as ‘not a support question’.

So far, so good. Playing nicely with my other plug-ins. Perhaps this is a yet-to-be-made enhancement, or an existing functionality that I am over-looking, but it would be nice for the site admin to be able to define default settings, or at least have all settings default to “friends only.” Did I just miss this, or is that not possible yet? Again, thanks for a great plug-in and much needed functionality that should definitely be basic to any good social networking framework.

Ask the original creator if he wants to do it.

Personally I don’t see why this is better than all those other wordpress themes.

the upper part of the gray is applyed by itself, buddypress will do it for all themes.

Is there not a way for users to mark spammers and draw them to the admins attention as such?

The user hakam00 in this website is a desperate spammer … how many desperate lonely geeks does “Tina” think “she” will scam on this site?

Presumably “Tina” comes from Romania or Nigeria?

See below:

Downloading it now. I have quite a few plug-ins installed, so this should be a fairly good test of how well the kids play together. I’ll let you know of any problems I encounter. Thanks for your time developing this much needed functionality of any social networking site framework.

Are you sure buddypress is activated as a plugin?

And are you using any plugins beside buddypress?

*deletes thread as it’s full of trolls and wonders why aforementioned troll doesn’t commit this into the core *

Bug reported https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/1445

The problem is that they need to be the same (ideally, utf8) – this gives the ??? problem.

I’ve just done a test install and it’s installed the databases with these types.

If you look on the bb-config.php in the root directory of your site, I bet the “charset” is set to “UTF” — but the database tables are still installed as latin1.

The forums component is probably the weakest area of my BuddyPress knowledge. I’ve had a look at the code and I can’t see anything obviously wrong. I’ll let you know once I have news.

The tweak that you’re describing, though, derives from the supporter plugin. And the guys at WPMU Premium are more than familiar with BuddyPress.

http://testbp.org/forums is the better place to look instead of http://testbp.org/bbpress/

Just enable forums component in BuddyPress. Bugle Notes is using the default theme for BP (with some CSS tweaks). If you download BuddyPress 1.1.3 and use the default theme provided with the download, your forum will look the same.

Testbp.org is using a new theme created for BP 1.2 (not yet released yet).

Same problem with Greek characters @ Forum.

i m also using buddypress builtin forum installation.

Anyone who knows the solution or thinking of something that might help?

.pleaze advice.

Awesome wp themes? Try googling.

Also, converting a normal wp theme to a bp theme isn’t that easy, it adds a few folders and a lot of extra template files. And yes, if you know how to make bp/wp themes, you can design above average and do some coding; you could make a site like tdi volkswagen.

Today Andy will release the newest buddypress parent theme, you might wanna check that out too.

Nice plugin…!

Is there any chance to do the same way on members profile in the future?

It would be great to give members the ability to attach external blog RSS feeds to their profiles.

Anyone have any luck using sign-up question or wpmudev’s sign-up code? They both work great on a regular MU install since the person signing up has to answer a logical question or enter a code that they have received previously. The problem is when you activate those plugins, they work on the WordPress registration page and not the BuddyPress Registration page. Those would likely solve all the problems if we could get them to work together.

I’m developing a site that we want only approved, or in some cases paid members to be able to sign up, but I can’t get either of those plugins to work with BuddyPress. Anyone been able to do that, or know how it would be done?
