Participantok, I’ve got temporary solution.
File: wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-groups.php
Line 1481: yous should have (inside function groups_create_group() / case 2:)
after:
do_action( ‘groups_create_group_step2_save’ );
I’ve added this line:
oci_bb_group_updated($group_obj->id);
So it works, but i had to modify this file which I am not happy with. I guess there is another way of doing this properly. If anyone will find better solution, could you please let me know too?

ParticipantbbPress does not have any native ways to hide forums that should be hidden. You can do as I have done – installing a “blank” theme that redirects users to your main site, limiting users to use the built-in group forums functionality only – or you could install a bbPress plugin that hides forums from those that are not allowed to view them. There is such a plugin, intended specifically for buddypress users, but I can’t remember what it is called.

ParticipantJust to clarify. I am talking about plugin for buddypress to communicate with bbpress. And by saying forum is visible I mean forum created with this plugin on bbpress side is visible (but should inherit settings from group).

KeymasterYou need to remove the “- ‘.BPLANG.'” suffix from the .po/.mo files in your bp-custom.php
Use this:
<?php
define( 'BPLANG', 'mysite' );
if ( file_exists( BP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/bp-languages/buddypress.mo' ) ) {
load_textdomain( 'buddypress', BP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/bp-languages/buddypress.mo' );
}

InactiveI’m trying to do this as well, however, it’s not working. I have my buddypress.po and buddypress.mo in my bp-languages folder and I uploaded a new bp-custom.php to the /plugins/ folder however, from there how do I enable the new translation?
I’m using:
<?php
define( 'BPLANG', 'mysite' );
if ( file_exists( BP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/bp-languages/buddypress-' . BPLANG . '.mo' ) ) {
load_textdomain( 'buddypress', BP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/bp-languages/buddypress-' . BPLANG . '.mo' );
}

ParticipantYou guys are the best. Thanks for the time in answering the question. For the time being I have chosen a non-technical solution for the problem. I used domain mapping to set up the corporate blog on mysite.com and am using mysite.org as blogid_1 and my buddypress set up.

KeymasterIt’s important to note that BuddyPress is an opensource project, just like all of the other WordPress related ones. That being said, if you find something isn’t working up to your expectations you are free to develop or contribute to the project to make it work how you wish. As it stands today, BuddyPress does a good job of keeping tidy and cleaning up after itself; better than most plugins in my opinion. The signups table is specific to MU and is a new addition, so you can expect it’s functionality to be misunderstood. When a user is deleted, the idea is that their signup remain in the signups table as proof of their previous registration. One could even argue that removing all user data is a bad idea in the event someone ever needs it later, say for law enforcement purposes.
Regarding blocking spam registrations, read some articles about Twitter. Some analysts have said that nearly 50% of all registrations on Twitter are spammers. Crazy eh? There just isn’t a fool proof way to prevent it from happening unfortunately.
Also, while none of the moderators are directly employed by Automattic, it’s about the best internship I think anyone in our respective businesses can hope for. We all do our best to represent Automattic and are here to help to the best of our abilities.
If you can find a specific bug or flaw in how users are currently managed between BuddyPress and WordPress, you’re welcome to respond here or file ticket in the trac. If you feel your opinion warrants more attention you can message me privately if you’d like also, and I’d be happy to help further.

ParticipantHi,
I have got the same problem. I tried upgrading Buddypress to 1.0.3 and got the same fatal error.
I’ve tried replacing all the files in the plugin folder but that didn’t work.
Someone help please!!!!

ParticipantSitewide is working now. I am running on the buddypress trunk (last updated yesterday) and it works for now,

Should this get submitted to trac?
July 23, 2009 at 9:40 pm #49939peterverkooijen
ParticipantI really do appreciate all the work you do. I’m just really frustrated with the lack of synchronization and consistency between Buddypress xprofile and WordPress users/usermeta etc. Automattic needs to take a serious look at member management.
FYI, here’s the response from the WPMU forum:
Because if a spammer signs up, for instance, and you delete their username and blogs, if their registration member is also deleted, then they can sign up again.
I’m not satisfied with that answer. There must be cleaner ways to block/blacklist spammers.
Isn’t there a plugin that deletes users more thoroughly?

KeymasterI wish I had a job writing software! You don’t want to know what I do 9 to 5, haha! el_terko is correct. Andy Peatling works for Automattic on BuddyPress. Sam Bauers develops bbPress.
The moderators on this forum are Andy and: Burt Adsit, Trent Adams, Nicola Greco, Jeff Sayre, John James Jacoby and Paul Gibbs (me!). I think we did something bad in a previous incarnation and this is punishment
. You can also check out this post for a mini-bio.
July 23, 2009 at 8:26 pm #49934peterverkooijen
ParticipantOK, thanks, I’ll post the question there.
But lack of synchronization between Buddypress xprofile and WordPress wp_usermeta etc. is also causing me lots of headaches, so I hope WPMU is not going to send me back here saying that it’s a Buddypress problem. Aren’t you all part of Automattic somehow?
July 23, 2009 at 8:16 pm #49930Paul Wong-Gibbs
KeymasterAsk on the WPMU boards; those aren’t BuddyPress tables.
July 23, 2009 at 7:37 pm #49929peterverkooijen
ParticipantThis plugin attempt doesn’t break anything, but still doesn’t put first_name and last_name in wp_usermeta either:
`
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Real Name Synchro
Plugin URI: http://
Version: v0.001
Author: peterverkooijen
Description: A plugin to store firstname and lastname from the fullname field in Buddypress registration in WPMU usermeta tables.
*/
function real_name_synchro() {
global $bp, $wpdb, $bp_user_signup_meta;
$fields = BP_XProfile_Field::get_signup_fields();
if ( $fields ) {
foreach ( $fields as $field ) {
$value = $_POST[‘field_’ . $field->id];
}
}
$field->id = ‘1’;
$fullname = $value;
$space = strpos( $fullname, ‘ ‘ );
if ( false === $space ) {
$firstname = $fullname;
$lastname = ”;
} else {
$firstname = substr( $fullname, 0, $space );
$lastname = trim( substr( $fullname, $space, strlen($fullname) ) );
}
update_usermeta( $user_id, ‘nickname’, $fullname );
update_usermeta( $user_id, ‘first_name’, $firstname );
update_usermeta( $user_id, ‘last_name’, $lastname );
$wpdb->query( $wpdb->prepare( “UPDATE {$wpdb->users} SET display_name = %s WHERE ID = %d”, $fullname, $user_id ) );
$wpdb->query( $wpdb->prepare( “UPDATE {$wpdb->users} SET user_url = %s WHERE ID = %d”, bp_core_get_user_domain( $user_id ), $user_id ) );
}
//Actions
add_action(‘user_register’, ‘real_name_synchro’);
//Filters
?>`
Can anyone suggest fixes or am I fundamentally on the wrong track?

July 23, 2009 at 6:55 pm #49922In reply to: How to add user avatar to activity excerpts
Mariusooms
ParticipantAvatar support would be a very nice feature. I looked at the activity code, but couldn’t make much of it. According to the roadmap the code will change in 1.1, so we have:
Grouping of similar activities by one user within X amount of time
https://buddypress.org/about/roadmap/
I really do hope there is an option in the future to liven up the activity stream in this media centered age. I’m surprised it is not included in the roadmap even up to 1.4?
Also, the roadmap also has this nice addition in store for 1.1:
Profile picture updated entry on activity streams
So it would only make sense the new profile picture would be visible in the activity stream as well, since we can’t expect members visiting each listed profile to just see the new profile picture?
July 23, 2009 at 6:28 pm #49919abcde666
Participantthis issue is also mentioned by another person at the german-language-Forum of http://www.buddypress.de
So we are not the only ones having this issue….

KeymasterOoh… good question, cozzie.
I don’t think there’s a parameter that combines both the “personal” and “friends” type.
For the avatar, I’m guessing you would need to either hack the “/buddypress/bp-activity/bp-activity-templatetags.php” file or write a filter to override one of the existing ones in bp-activity, which would include the avatar.

Jeff Sayre
ParticipantJust remember, when you make changes to the core code, like it appears you have, those changes will be lost the next time you upgrade BuddyPress.
That is why you should use the wp-config.php file for customizing your slugs.

ParticipantAre you using a non-english, localized version of BuddyPress? If so, this is a known bug: https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/757
July 23, 2009 at 4:26 pm #49907July 23, 2009 at 3:36 pm #49901In reply to: Username and Name
peterverkooijen
ParticipantYes.
But I want only Username or only Name.
Or why not Username and Name is same.
Thank you
I still want to figure out a way to autogenerate the username from the name; full name with spaces stripped, all lower case.
I know it’s doable with simple PHP code, that I may have used before somewhere – have to dig through my older sites. But where/how could I insert that into the registration process? Would that have to be a plugin? Any pointers appreciated.

ParticipantHi, stumbled upon this thread and love the concept, as a XBOX 360 owner. Would like to keep track of where this is going. Would be a great social attribute to buddypress.
