BuddyPress.org

1 in 10 or 20 times, this forum generates blank pages when I visit. Something wasn’t happening before.

As per https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset/1843/, you need to re-activate the theme. Also you will probably need to go in and remove the themes/bp-sn-framework/ directly manually.

Shooting of one in the dark, but try deleting the bp-themes folder from the buddypress directory now that you’ve moved the themes over.

When you say “naked” you mean the stylesheet is not loaded?

Just working on a clean install of BP, and tried activating bp-events, running trunk. I get the following error a couple of times on different lines:

Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of do_action(). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file in /wp-content/plugins/bp-events/bp-events.php on line 2221

and also Failed opening required ‘/wp-content/plugins/bp-events/bp-events-cssjs.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /wp-content/plugins/bp-events2/bp-events.php on line 21

@matthijsv You could look at how WP constructs the calendar, ie how it populates it with posts, and work from that.

I’m testing r1865, and it conflicts with /wp-admin/ pages causing options to go blank or only displays footer.

Questions/suggestions:

• So, you are having display issues with one (or all) of the admin pages in WPMU’s backend?
• What version of WPMU are you running? You need to be running WPMU 2.8.4a.
• How did you upgrade BuddyPress? Since you are running trunk, I assume that you manually installed it. Or, did you do an SVN up?
• If you manually reinstalled trunk, meaning you grabbed the zipped version, did you first deactivate BuddyPress before reinstalling? Did you delete the BuddyPress directory and do a clean install?
• Have you tried disabling all your active plugins and seeing if the page displays as it should?
• If the above solves the issue, then reactivate BuddyPress and see if the issue returns. If it does not, then it has nothing to do with BuddyPress and is more than likely a conflict with one of your other plugins. Make sure all your plugins are updated to run WPMU 2.8.4a.

You need to modify the output of the User Posts and User Comments loop. The documentation for doing that can be found here:

Custom BuddyPress Loops

And what you’re specifically looking for can be found here:

• The User Blog Posts Loop
• The User Comments Loop

I assume that you are running on the bleeding edge, that you reinstalled the most recent BuddyPress trunk. The name of the parent theme was changed in r1843 and many new improvements made to the overall new parent/child theme architecture.

As the above referenced changeset indicates, the first step you should try is reactivating your theme. If that does not do the trick, then since you’re using a customized parent/child theme, you need to make sure that you carefully inspect the new default parent/child theme and find were any changes might have been made.

You need to modify the output of the friends and groups loop. The documentation for doing that can be found here:

Custom BuddyPress Loops

And what you’re specifically looking for can be found here:

• The Friends Loop
• The Site Groups Loop

All you need to do is post a friendly reminder every 24-36 hours if you do not get any response. A simple “Bump” posting will do.

I’m closing this thread as it is basically a duplicate thread. I’ve answered in the original one here.

First of all, with the version of BuddyPress trunk that you have installed, you will now only have one activity table in your MySQL database. This table is wp_bp_activity_user_activity_cached.

I know that based on the private message you sent me, you have read this thread which details why this is the case. So, unless you added those tables back to the DB, I am surprised that you even have the other two activity tables in your DB. If the BP upgrade was successful, it should have automatically removed those two tables.

Trying to add those tables and their corresponding data back to the DB will do nothing. The BuddyPress codebase no longer references those other activity tables. They are no longer needed.

As for the Site Wide Activity widget, make sure that you log into WPMU’s backend and go to “Appearances > Widgets” and remove the Site Wide Activity widget and then add it back. Also, your widget will not show any activity until someone does something that gets recorded into the wp_bp_activity_user_activity_cached table.

We have two topics on this. One is about point system, another is about achivement plugin.

No OS/platform wars please.

Which browsers you were using would have been far more interesting that what platform you were using. I have not confirmed this myself but if you can recreate this – perhaps testing on http://testbp.org/ – please submit it as a bug on https://trac.buddypress.org/. You can use the same username and password that you do here.

Yes.

You need to copy the relevant stuff from within BuddyPress’ theme’s functions.php into the functions.php of the active theme (unless your new theme is a child theme of BuddyPress).

How would I then create a new menu tab for the new page?

Like all open source projects, BuddyPress is a community effort. Anyone can add to the documentation–the Codex–by visiting this BP link and creating a new Codex article, or adding to and/or editing an existing one.

Your help in documenting BuddyPress will be appreciated!

This plug-in / feature is probably the most sought after. Maybe at some point Andy will take the time to integrate chat into a future release of BP down the road.

You can’t really have a social network w/o chat these days. MySpace, FaceBook, OkCupid, all have it.

I’ve decided on a killer app for my new site. A Google Events Calendar for BP groups. Essentially, I want to have the group admin create a Google Calendar that sits on the group “home page.” The admin can create/edit events and invite attendees.

This can be done now through Google Calendar and embedded in any site. http://www.google.com/calendar/embedhelper (it’s broken at the moment, but it works).

What I’m looking for is a plugin that uses the Google Calendar API to use group member email to invite group members via Buddypress and accept and track their RSVPs via Buddypress.

Users get all the benefits/upgrades to Google Calendar and we don’t have to reinvent the wheel (No offense to the BP calendar being created)

The Google Calendar projects on .org seem a bit dead, but I’m hoping someone here sees the benefit in the BP context. I’ll of course do it myself eventually, but I’m still working on the basics of the site at the moment and I’m NOT a programmer (just a problem solver who wants to get something done)

I’d at least like to know if someone else is taking this on so we can either colloborate or at least not duplicate work.

You should post these on trac.buddypress.org as it’s hard for Andy to follow everything posted here. You can login with the same ID. There seems more bugs than current reported, so I’m adding additional bugs to make sure 1.1 release works fine.
