BuddyPress.org

BuddyPress’ forums are group-specific like the forums on Facebook’s group pages.

If you’re looking for a traditional forum, then stick with phpBB.

Also, stay tuned to the new bbPress WordPress plugin:
https://trac.bbpress.org/timeline

There will probably be an alpha release for that in the next month or so.

Check out /buddypress/bp-groups/bp-groups-templatetags.php.

In particular, here are the conditional functions you’re looking for:

`bp_group_is_admin(); // will return true if the user is a group admin

bp_group_is_mod(); // will return true if the user is a group mod`

Use in a conditional statement and you’re good to go!

eg.

`if ( bp_group_is_mod() ) echo ‘Group Moderator’;`

It’s better to be clear when posting!

You can use this snippet in your theme’s functions.php:

`function ray_bp_get_the_topic_last_poster_name( $name ) {
global $forum_template;

return str_replace($forum_template->topic->topic_last_poster_displayname, $forum_template->topic->topic_last_poster_login, $name);
}
add_filter( ‘bp_get_the_topic_last_poster_name’, ‘ray_bp_get_the_topic_last_poster_name’ );`

This snippet is part of my BuddyPress Usernames Only plugin, which you might be interested in:

If your site has open registration like you say, then users shouldn’t be redirected to the register page when they’re trying to read a post.

Do you have any redirection or private BuddyPress plugins installed?

oh, create a gravatar for the email you use on this site

And no another suggestions ?

@travel-junkie

Shouldn’t that line be:

`if( bp_is_register_page() || bp_is_activation_page() || ($bp->is_directory && $bp->current_component == ‘your-links-directory-slug’) )`

The added param should be between parentheses ‘cuz the “&&” applies only to the “is_directory”, no?

IE does not support webkit borders from my understanding.

It must be an problem with your theme. It’s not a core BuddyPress issue.

Known bug. I fixed this in https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset/3537/ which will be part of BuddyPress 1.3.

make sure the folder avatars is writable. You do that via an FTP program or your hosts admin.

@Travel-Junkie and @iamjoshfrank I’ve just implemented your ‘sh walled garden’ code to shield my community pages from prying eyes, and it works great.

I was wondering however if you knew a way I could make an exception for the BuddyPress Links Directory (it’s a plugin, so there is no kind of conditional tag for this, as far as I know).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No plugins and hacks aren’t really needed just some simple observation it does after all clearly say how to display/render code in posts but this is an issue that occurs on many forums. Some tender loving care is also due the bp site, in respect of this issue some strip tags need to be employed much as posting in WP does with allowed tags, trouble is people still need to pay attention (no offense intended to the OP ) and use the provided mechanisms for post formatting and that applies to all forums.

This is why it’s so important to provide as accurate a picture as possible:

Initially you stated:
system is not sending..
Prompting my response for more detail but later you say:
but I have no problem in my wordpress blog.. this only occur in buddypress one

A vital piece of info that changes the nature of responses and needed to be provided from the outset.

@DJPaul Can you elaborate a little on this, is there in fact a possible issue between BP and WP when it comes to email sending? BP after all does have greater requirements for sending emails than WP, but I’ve never encountered an issue that was directly related to BP where email was concerned – as far as I’m aware! If there is a possible conflict is it something that can be flagged to look further into?
