BuddyPress.org

I solved the issue by deleting BuddyPress from wp-content/plugin directory, and re uploading it. Good luck everyone!

There is already a ticket and a patch for this as well as a support thread expect the patch committed in 1.2.7

https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/time-offset-still-present-in-bp-1-2-6/

However you are reporting quite a time difference? but this is a long running issue but should be corrected with this final patch.

I use the plugin with WP3.0.1. and BP 1.2.6. It works fine with e.g. Google Chrome but in Internet Explrer 8.0 files are not uploaded.
Any idea?

@zomex ignore the query string it’s a version string appended when the style sheet is added to the output of the page and is simply a method used to force refresh of browser cache , it’s appended to the file after the fact and no file actually exists physically with a query string, just edit the adminbar.css as r-a-y has shown you

Added a footnote to the ‘blog tracking’ list item on https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/configure-buddypress-components/

It perhaps also needs reference elsewhere as well.

@r-a-y (Sidenote: me thinks we need a BP codex article to setup the blogs component) by that do you mean multi site feature? if so is that not really a WP issue and well covered in their codex, with perhaps BP codex just needing to reference that WP page, subscribing to a variation of DRY therein.

@ChuckNJ I would love to show you, but its only in the testing phase right now so it’s not up to me right now. What I can say is this is a great theme and allows for great customization. When the site is done I will definitely send you out a link.

Did you search Google for an existing WordPress plugin? https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-transliteration/ is one I found after a quick search. You could use that as a starting point for figuring out how to extend support to wherever you want in BuddyPress.

Buddydev.com has a group blog plugin that takes advantage of standard WP’s blog categories:
http://buddydev.com/buddypress/blog-categories-for-groups-plugin/

Something similar could be put together like that for members instead of groups.

@ChuckNJ Oh alright, when you post there is a bar on the right side, under “post tags” called “featured image”. Click “set featured image” and then either upload or select from your library. Also with this theme you are able to set which categories are shown in the slider. For instance, I created a category called “featured” and only those posts in the category get displayed. This is useful because you may not want all of your categories to be displayed.

@ChuckNJ Mine is working just fine. Are you using the images as featured images?

Here’s a quick snippet you can add in your theme’s functions.php:

`function ray_number_online_users() {
$i = 0;

if ( bp_has_members( ‘user_id=0&type=online&per_page=999&populate_extras=0’ ) ) :
while ( bp_members() ) : bp_the_member();
$i++;
endwhile;
endif;

return $i;
}`

Then you can use it in a template like:

`if ( function_exists( ‘ray_number_online_users’ ) ) echo ray_number_online_users();`

*Sidenote: code could be better. I just modified the code from the online widget.

To add a friend, simply navigate to a member profile you want to become friends with and click on the “Add Friend” button. The requested member gets an email notification asking whether or not to accept the friendship.

Please go and test BuddyPress thoroughly on http://testbp.org, then come back here for any help.

For blogs, you need to enable WordPress’ network mode:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

When you have that setup, BuddyPress automatically detects this and adds a blog directory. There should be a button to create a blog on that page as well as on the registration page.

(Sidenote: me thinks we need a BP codex article to setup the blogs component)

To customize the welcome email, try Paul Gibbs’ Welcome Pack plugin:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/welcome-pack/

@zomex – If you’re trying to override the adminbar CSS on the subblog, create a file called:
`/wp-content/themes/_YOURTHEME_/_inc/css/adminbar.css`

And copy the styles from bp-default’s adminbar.css. Then you can customize the styles to your heart’s content.

According to JJJ, the new bbPress plugin will work well with BuddyPress 1.3; BP 1.3 is scheduled to come out sometime in the New Year.

You could probably use Boone’s plugin as a guide to create the RSS feed.
A RSS feed could be created with an activity stream loop that targets group forum topics.

You can also check out /buddypress/bp-activity/feeds/ and /buddypress/bp-activity.php to see how BuddyPress does it.
