BuddyPress.org

Hello. I’m a newbie and just created a test site up with buddypress/wordpress/bbpress. Everything looks good. I installed this plugin and followed the directions. However, when I activate it, I get this error:

Fatal error: Class ‘BP_Group_Extension’ not found in /home/ieconnec/public_html/isocal/wp-content/plugins/bp-groupblog/bp-groupblog-classes.php on line 105

I’m running buddypress 1.0.3 and wordpress mu 2.8.4a. Any help you can provide will be much appreciated. I would like to be able to use this plugin.

I was able to find a work around for this by using custom fields since it does not strip the codes. I have it working on my web tv-social networking site that mostly uses embedded videos, http://piyesta.com/sadyatv.

That is not tested & is intended as a starting point. I think it does what you want.

What Url is / will your install be at, and what’s the path to Buddypress on your server?

Hi Guys!

I’m also having 2 niggling issues with this plugin. 1) If I’m logged out of wordpress AND bbpress, and I log into bbpress, the buddybar doesn’t change from the logged out status. If I click the login link on the buddybar through the forums and log in, it redirects me back to the blog homepage, not the page I clicked from.

Here’s what I’m running…

WPMU 2.8.2

Buddypress 1.0.3

bbPress 1.0.1

Thanks!

Getting out of a fix:

If you’ve tried updating Buddypress, but forgotten to update WordPressMU first of all… you are now facing the “Fatal error: Class ‘WP_Widget’ not found”.

You’ll also find, you can’t rewind your buddypress upgrade, and can’t update wordpress from the dashboard. You are stuck!

You could reach for your backup, but if like me, you got lazy and didn’t backup… you’ll be really pleased to know this link to a manual update process works, and you won’t lose any of your lovely data:

The steps for 2.8.3 also work for 2.8.4a

Hey Guys

This sounds similar to my problem. I have been trying to set up groups for a while now with no luck. Groups haven’t worked from install, which was something I though would clear up as I proceeded with integration, but no go.

It looks the page is trying to load an incorrect ajax url. It seems to be adding extra sub-directory to the path name.

I checked and rechecked the wp-config file with no luck.

Attempts to add new profile information also seems to error out.

Other than these two errors the rest of the site works great! If anyone can help that would be great.

BuddyPress 1.03 and WordPress MU 2.8.4a and bbPress 1.0

There’s no end user or developer documentation yet.

At this point, I at least am not using 1.1 as are most people.

Apparently Manoj Kumar’s very essential users import plugin does not work with the latest version:

Hi Manoj,

The plugin is not compatible with WPMU 2.8.3 & Buddypress 1.0.3. Could you please fix it.

This is also the version of the plugin I’ve tried – I gave the wrong link earlier.

In my installation the plugin worked for the essentials – username, email address – but nothing was added to meta in wp_signup and the xprofile fields.

Next I’ll try it in a fresh install of Buddypress 1.0 RC…

I really do appreciate all your hard work, Jeff Sayre!

I don’t only post to beg for solutions. A lot of my posts are reminders for myself what I’m doing, what I have already tried and what issues I still need to solve.

I imagine other regular web developers using Buddypress will run into many of the same issues I run into. Hopefully my threads and posts will be useful resources to them.

The solution to this users import time-out issue is now available within the Buddypress forum. One more thing you hopefully don’t have to answer again in the future.

My experience even put an approximate number on it. I think on the second attempt I’ll just split my list in half, import them as two batches of 300.

I’ve noticed the imported users have also been added to the mailing list via my bp-custom.php function.

So the plugin actually “runs” the regular registration processes, including wpmu_activate_user? Whatever member registration custom code or plugin you have inbetween, this plugin takes it into account?

That is pretty cool.

I replied you here -> https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/listmessenger-or-phplist-integration-plugin?replies=6#post-22429

it’s better using built-in functions

$uid = get_userdata($user_id);

$uid->user_email;

you shoud open a ticket in the trac here:

https://trac.buddypress.org/

Jeff Sayre, I already google a lot of things. I don’t think it’s off-topic to point out that this essential Buddypress plugin – that should be a built-in BP feature… – runs into this time-out when you use it with over 490 users.

All my issues may be very boring, annoying and off-topic to you, but I’m just a regular web developer (html, css, a bit of js and php) running into lots of basic issues that aren’t solved. I had no intention learning PHP, but Buddypress has lots of loose ends.

I hope by posting here the programmers at Automattic become aware of issues and that other developers on this forum can benefit from solutions I or others come up with.

I think that plugin will not work with buddypress 1.1

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /serverpath/wp-includes/class-phpass.php on line 60

This error has nothing to do with Manoj’s plugin, BuddyPress, of WPMU code. It is a standard server error that occurs when any PHP script exceeds a preset execution time limit. The default is usually set to 30 seconds.

If you have access to changing your php.ini file, then make the alterations there. If not, then you can make them in your .htaccess file (php_value max_execution_time 200).

I realize that you are working through WPMU and BP, learning as you go. That is great! But, a little googling can answer a lot of issues you will come across while learning the ins and outs of PHP programming, database management, server operation and optimization, etc.

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Maximum+execution+time

Trying to use Manoj Kumar’s Buddypress Users Import plugin. I get this error:

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /serverpath/wp-includes/class-phpass.php on line 60

I don’t recognize anything in that line:

function get_random_bytes($count)

{

$output = '';

if (($fh = @fopen('/dev/urandom', 'rb'))) {

$output = fread($fh, $count);

fclose($fh);

}

Can I just temporarily delete it? Would that solve the problem? Other solutions?

I’m trying to import 600+ members, so I’m not surprised it times out.

EDIT: 490 members were actually imported quite nicely!

EDIT2: Not as nicely as I first thought… Username and full name didn’t make it over, only email addresses. Should I have added labels to the top line?

EDIT3: There is no fast way to delete 490 users…?

EDIT4: Does this plugin also update firstname + username in wp_usermeta. If not, I have to add it.
