What do you mean that filtering doesn’t work? Just checked on the test site and it does 
Group filtering doesn’t until 1.3, but activity filtering works good.
@dnmedia If it’s happening in your activity stream also then it sounds like you may not have the correct timezone selected in Dashboard >> Settings >> General.
Hi guys !
As WordPress and most of all BuddyPress is becoming more and more social, there SHOULD be a way in WordPress to post from the frontend.
I wrote a plugin for this(One Quick Post – http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/one-quick-post/), but I think it should be developped really further.
Basically, my idea was that this should be able to
-handle custom types & taxonomies
-allow guest posting (mapped to a “guest” user); with a secret key to allow the user to edit his post later
-load any meta box from the backend, so it would have to be registered only once and could be called the same way by the frontend or the backend.
Some filters could remove/add specific stuff for the frontend.
I posted this as an idea on wordpress.org, please vote for it !

Try the BuddyPress Moderation plugin. I think you’ll like it.

Since you’ve dug up a 3 month old post, the theme for the future 1.3 release has these switched to date now
for me the same thing not only on bp-default/index.php
even in single blog post at bp-default/single.php
Anyway +1 for @DJPaul suggestion.
Anybody make any headway on a global MU like system? Someone mentioned before about deploying like button across MU blogs then having some widget or template tags/short codes to display “most liked” last X number of hours/days on main blog. This would be powerful. I’d be willing to pay for it if anyone can do it.
The only way I know of is by using the Global Forum plugin from BuddyDev http://buddydev.com/plugins/global-forums/
There is a fee and I don’t know if it works with 1.2.6 or if it will work with the upcoming 1.2.7 release.
I loath the forum via groups set up. Our site is made up of mostly non-tech people(heck I’m not all savvy) and way too much stuff ends up getting posted as group updates by mistake.
I’m hoping that with the new bbPress/BuddyPress separate but integrated system this problem will be resolved.
All of that being said I still love BuddyPress and can imagine trying to do what we do without it.
I understand that groups (in BP) are the containers for forums, but can there be a much simpler implementation of Buddypress and the forum? Can one bypass the group creation process and enable members to directly update the forum?
TIA.
I should have come back.
I wrote this. Works fine on BuddyPress.

I tried this method with Buddypress links, I want to make them my front page.
I got the links to show up on a custom page but the formatting is all screwed up and the share button seems to be broken. I think it is not loading the css file for the links or the added javascripts. How would I go about updating it so that it works properly?
This is what my custom template page looked like. I had to copy over the bp-links-default directory over to my-buddypress theme.

Here is the actual page http://www.playbookit.com/frontpage
Anyone know how to fix this? I’ve been at it for a few days.
Once you have activated a BuddyPress-compatible theme, such as the packaged bp-default, you will see a Groups tab at the top of the main page. Click on it. You should then see a Create A Group button at the top of the Groups directory.

Activate forums in a given group at that group’s Admin > Group Settings.
AND THERE’S NO NEED TO SHOUT!!!!!
I can’t seem to find basic instructions on how to set up a buddypress forum or a group. I see nothing anywhere! Its running on the site, but I dont know where to go to set it up.
Or even just “report user” – because there could be all kinds of community violations besides spam.
Thanks!
I agree. Invite Anyone is the best that’s out there so far. I think you’ll find this thread interesting: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/invite-anyone/forum/topic/different-ways-of-inviting/ I’d like to see it done as well. I’ve already done some integrations with Facebook, Twitter, etc. I just need to send what I’ve done to Boone to integrate it. I’d just been waiting for some of the other integrations to send it to him.
Since 2 years I’ve have a WP blog with bbPress forum in subdirectory & with a WP integration. It’s time to make a move so I decide to migrate to WP 3+BuddyPress. I can’t find any tutorial or post in support forum with info how to do it.Anybody can help?
A year or so ago, I switched buddypress to it’s own blog using the BP_ROOT_BLOG variable. Now, the main blog is no long longer being updated and I would like to switch buddypress back to the main blog.
current buddypress is at mydomain.com/community and I would like it to be back to mydomain.com
I have tried giving the BP_ROOT_BLOG variable the value of 1, enabled the buddypress theme and made sure all the plugins I was using were activated on the main blog.
After I do all of this the main blog is just a white screen.
Any thoughts?
You have a good point. I’ll unlock your thread. I suggest that you place a link back to this thread (for reference) and explain why you’re creating a new thread so that some other moderator does not do what I did!
As I stated above, the problem is not with the BuddyPress software, it is with the environment in which the buddypress.org website is hosted. It is a universal truth that websites will not allow you to upload files (like avatars) unless their permissions have been properly configured. In the case of buddypress.org, they are not (and they cannot be at the moment). It sounds like something similar is happening on your server.
