Hey DJ Paul

I noticed that you added bp_core_account_activated hook which should work in most cases, but like I said (in my particular case) I skip over the activation via the buddypress fbconnect plugin. It inserts the user directly.

Maybe there is a way for me to call that activation once the facebook user is authenticated? Do you know of a way to trigger that whole authorization process without actually making the user click on an email?

That way it basicaly works like this

1. User registers with Facebook conenct button

2. Facebook sends back userinfo (via the api) – thats working currently

(and here is where I am fuzzy)

3. Take the fb information and trigger the account activation “automatically” …effectively bypassing the need for a “key”

Or

Is there another hook I can grab onto somewhere in the process beyond bp_core_account_activated that would work only on INITIAL Registration…but still after all globals are loaded (to ensure the messaging will work)

Any ideas?

Thanks again for the help!

Wow thanks…I will try as soon as I get back to the local computer hosting my test dev. What seems to be happening (in short) is that becuase my users use facebook to login/register…it never goes through the “activation” email scenario….and becuase it registers a new user (and activates them) BEFORE those messages_global are set – the send message function fails.

I tried reording the load_plugin order of the core and the message globals so that they would boot before, but once I did that it screwed up other things (like the order they need to be in to boot through the various functions in buddypress)..so I reverted, and have sense been trying to figure out how to maybe Trigger the “activation” silently in the registration process so that the email verification is not necissary.

I will try the new plugin and report back

We will not release it at the moment, because you can’t use it out of the box. But if you can programm in PHP then maybe it’s a good starting point for your project. I will discuss it in the next week.

When I activate buddypress default theme it gives me blank page when clicked on create new blog but on wordpress default theme it does not show blank page.

Yes i figured. I don’t mind lots of work though.

I have decided to merge all BP-admin options into the users into their wp-admin.

All Hooks and menus are set.

Now adding new pages and making new bp-functions.

… hmm, yeah, the dev section probably isn’t the place for this… we were out of coffee…

[cough]

Basically, I just need a hint or two to get going in the right direction. There’s got to be a way to display videos uploaded to member blogs on a buddypress site’s page, yeah?

Basically, I need a way to display all the videos posted across my BP/WPMU install. So when user X and user Y post videos (and so on) they all show up (say 10 or 20 a page, or thumbnails, formatting is the easy bit) on a page of the main site. We could make a youtube channel I suppose, but we’d never get the academics on the site to use youtube, it just doesn’t have that old-stuffy-academic feel [sigh]…

Update: Something like this: http://tubepress.org/demo/ except instead of drawing videos from youtube, using the videos my users upload.

Again, I’m a pretty solid server guy, and a bit of a code hacker, but writing this from scratch… well, not sure. I’m going to keep plugging away, but any help from the community would be greatly appreciated!

Update2: Ok, beginning to feel a bit silly, but yeah… Found this plugin: http://wpmudev.org/project/post-from-all-blogs-category-filter which might be a better solution. If newly created blogs all have a “Shared Videos” category for teachers to post lecture video to, they can exclude videos of cats doing funny things… now the only question is how to strip away all the text and so on they might post with it, so only the video comes up…

Thoughts?

It’s more like an issue. Log-in, register, forgot password, and log-out should be all the same look.

Log-in and register is buddypress theme and forgot password and log-out is wordpress core theme.

[rant]it won’t matter where I put it, it won’t get resolved or get a straight answer. Plus I can’t move it after it’s posted.[/rant]

I could really use some help here….Not getting any responses.

HOW IS COMPATIBILITY MODE SUPPOSED TO WORK IN 1.1.1?

I have gone down the route of trying to integrate my WP theme with Buddypress, for my root blog

but it is not going to work. I would like to keep the themes separate like in 1.0.3 etc. HOW DO YOU DO THIS? Which exact template files do I need to move? I see which ones to move if I would like to INTEGRATE my theme with BP, but NOT if I want to keep the themes SEPARATE. Here are my specifics once again: Fresh install of

WPMU 2.8.4a

BP 1.1.1

No plugins

using subdirs

WPMU is not at root on webserver

using WP default theme at root (trying to get MagicBlue working, but will start with default).

CentOS 5.3

Is this setup possible? Can BP 1.1.1 run like BP 1.0.3 with a separate WP root theme? Please

HELP….this is chewing up a lot of time trying different alternatives.

Thanks

I am still getting blank page at http://smartbuddypress.com/wp-signup.php can someone provide assistance. Is their any support for this?

you never responded to this either ….

I have already activated buddypress but this theme does not get activated How can I do that?

Nothing related to this in Apace, SQL, PHP logs. If I reproduce the problem, then nothing new turns up in those logs…

I have tried emptying the file of code, and then the site loads. So it must be related to the code that’s in the BuddyPress standard theme.
