BuddyPress.org

Hello

We aren’t going to admin your site. I’ve edited your post and removed the admin username and password; that was a very, very silly thing to do and I suggest you immediately go in and change the password.

Please help us help you by answering these questions.

Michael, you can also try protecting spam signups by using a RewriteRule in your .htaccess:

This is quite an effective method that will stop most spambot signups (except the manual ones!)

Not sure if everyone knew this, but wordpress.org uses BuddyPress now!

I’m assuming you mean BuddyPress, as opposed to bbPress which is the forum component.

Yes, comments posted on existing blogs on the WPMU installation will appear in the BuddyPress activity feeds. Make an account on http://testbp.org and have a play

If the current codebase was released into the plugins repository, then other developers who possibly have more time to spend on the plugin could work to improve it to a polished state.

I’m sure there would be plenty of people willing to lend a hand, I for one would be happy to help on the UI front.

Hi. I have the same problem. But it doesn’t depend on changing of themes. Simply posts from some blogs are not showing in the recent posts widget on the main page of BuddyPress site. Also new posts from these blogs are not showing in Activity widget and RSS. Because of it, problem is not in these widgets and plugins, but deeper.

@John – I had a similar question, so I might as well attach it to this post.

I have my wpmu setup and running. I have already registered a number of users and accounts. I did create a ‘placeholder’ subdomain blog for my future buddypress install. I also set the wpmu admin to automatically add all new users to that blog.

So the question is simple:

When I add buddypress to the subdomain, will buddypress automatically recognize all the members of that subdomain blog?

I was told in another post awhile back that buddypress actually does not have it’s own registration system but uses wpmu. So by that theory I would expect buddypress to recognize everyone once it’s turned on….

WordPress blog since 2006, bbPress forum added in 2008, and now a BuddyPress community. To start with we’re only using extended profiles and private messaging, but will layer in additional features over time.

Very grateful for the powerful platform that Andy and team have created, and for the great support offered by Burt, JJJ, Jeff and all the others on the forum.

Look through the right column. It should have all the loops you need to construct your desired listings.

As your issue seems to be with your provider, and not with BuddyPress itself, I’m going to set this thread to resolved.

By the way, if you are using a BuddyPress installing script and not using WPMU’s autoinstaller or simply doing a manual install yourself, you can run into a lot of issues.

In theory you should be able to upgrade from RC1 to 1.0.3 without a problem. What truly matters is the integrity of your database. That being said, when I have not upgraded a WP site for a long time, I prefer to upgrade in several increments.

But if you follow this course, you should be okay (of course, there are no guarantees):

• backup your database–the most crucial step
• deactivate any BuddyPress-specific plugins in WPMU’s back end
• then deactivate BuddyPress itself
• delete the buddypress directory
• download BP version 1.0.3
• follow the instructions in BP’s readme.txt file
• reactivate BP sitewide

Then you will most likely have to change your theme files to get them to work.

If all goes terribly wrong, you can always redownload the old tagged version 1.0-RC1 of BP from here, restore your DB from your backup, and then reinstall and reactivate the old version.

Of course, before deleting your current version of BP, it is probably a good idea to back that up as well. That way, if something goes awry and you need to revert, you know you have the exact same files you used before.

Also, make sure that you have backup copies of your custom theme files as well.

A work in progress

Waiting patiently for buddypress 1.1 to come along…

We changed them on our site. Basically you go into the plugins/buddypress/bp-languages folder and get the BuddyPress.mo file. Then use a program called Poedit (you can search the web for this), and use it open the BuddyPress.mo file. You can then change the language in that program. When you save the file with a name, say TEMP and it will also save a TEMP.po file. Put that back into the bp-languages folder. Then add a new bp-custom.php file into your plugins folder and put this code in it:

define( ‘BPLANG’, ‘TEMP’ );

if ( file_exists( BP_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/bp-languages/buddypress-‘ . BPLANG . ‘.mo’ ) ) {

load_textdomain( ‘buddypress’, BP_PLUGIN_DIR . ‘/bp-languages/buddypress-‘ . BPLANG . ‘.mo’ );

}

Change the name TEMP in the above code to whatever you called the po file.

That should do it.

That is strange behavior. If BuddyPress installed properly, there should be at least one profile field called “Full Name” located in a field group called “Basic”.

Can you verify that the BuddyPress xprofile tables exist in your database’s backend? Have you checked the PHP and MySQL error logs to see if there is any useful information?

There should be 19 total BuddyPress tables in your MySQL DB–this does not include any WPMU tables. Out of those 19, four of them are for profile data. Each of the profile tables has the word “xprofile” in the table name.

As I read your post, you have an old forum you want “into” BuddyPress. BP or WordPress MU aren’t forums. BuddyPress’ forum components are provided by BBPress.

If you want to import things differently, you need to write your post in more detail and even then I doubt there’s any easy solution

Diego, just read your trac ticket and I think I understand what you’re saying now.

You’re saying that there’s no link to the comment author in your BP forum’s post.

You should definitely describe the issue in detail next time.

Disregard what I’ve written previously.

Re-download BP 1.0.3 and make sure your BP files match up, particularly your “bp-themes/bpmember” folder.

The testbp.org site is running on the latest developmental version of BuddyPress.

That isn’t ready for primetime yet; wait a couple of weeks for the release of BuddyPress 1.1 and you’ll get all the new features!
