BuddyPress.org

Any CSS champs out there who can help with bpc 1.0 look and feel? I emailed Burt and hit indicated that CSS was not his best hand.

The issue: using the bphome theme, bpc 1.0, and nicola greco’s widget plugins. The home page of Buddypress has bullet points that are square and perfectly aligned below the point down arrow of a widget bar for say, a page that is added. (I use it for FAQ’s so I have 4 separate pages and therefore 4 bullet points.)

With bpc 1.0, and really not sure if Nicola’s widget plugin has anything to do with this, I have added member and group categories as widgets to the left and center columns of the home page. The result is that both of the widgets list the categories as bullet items but the bullets are round and left aligned beyond the down arrow of the widget bar.

Would love to “enhance” Burt’s bpc css to make the bullets square and align like the rest of the widget listings.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Got to the site admin profile page. Under ME, click on ‘Contents.’ To the right, you’ll see ‘MY CONTENTS’ and in that column, click on ‘Site Admin.’

To the right, you’ll see a selection of items to categorize. Click on ‘Groups’ and start adding a group category and hit add.

Im probably missing something obvious, but how does the site admin set the categories for groups after the plugin has been activated successfully?

Burt – you can kill me. Now it’s ok. I copied – not the /bpcontents/bpcontents but its content. Double bpcontents is rather confusing…

Your plugin is great!!! Well done!

Getting Access denied page – not the plugin page

What do you mean by ‘overwriting the one I created before’. Exactly what happens? I just tested creating 2 groups one right after the other. Everything works fine. The one issue I noticed is that the group avatar thumbnail doesn’t reflect the gravatar group avatar if I don’t upload an avatar image. I’m using the default themes and bp trunk though. bp 1.0.2 is pretty close to that.

Hi all

Developing a communty around bucks/bachelor/stag parties.

I’m new to WPMU/Buddypress and am learning it all as I go – BIG thanks to everyone that’s helped me out with my problems!!

http://bucksboardroom.com

I started a new topic here.

in case he goes online, i would want it also to be able to bind if an existing account exists.

HEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp me toooo.. i’ve just install BP 1.0.2 with wpmu 2.71.. when upgrade to wpmu 2.8 the problem stays.. so i guess it’s the BP, installed with Nginx.

BTW in install instruction =>

Head back to the plugins admin panel. You will need to activate the BuddyPress plugin by clicking the Activate Site Wide or Activate link (both will work).

i don’t see Activate Site Wide.. is it using a plugin or something with wpmu? cos the Bp admin bar is only on the main blog.. not on other blog i have. is it normal ? or should i put the BP in the mu-plugins folder?

excellent. installed and worked out of the box. thanks!

Since nobody has figured this out yet, I was wondering, maybe there might be a different way. Such as when people signup, it automatically logs them in upon signup. Then while it automatically logs them in, it leads them to the change the password/profile page.

Although, it would be great to see buddypress profile section to actually have the option to change passwords, as right now we have no other choice but to edit the passwords in the wp profile area.

Hopefully, somebody will get this figured out, as it is a horrible idea to send out e-mails in this manner, because most of the time the e-mail could get lost or placed into the spam areas or the e-mails can become delayed and users never check for it, or they just don’t bother to login because they are concerned that they may not have the option to change their passwords so readily.

Time will tell. But, there needs to be a way to automatically log people in upon them creating their own account, then they can change their passwords as they like. Otherwise, if they don’t change their password right there upon auto login, they will still be e-mailed the password that the website created for them by default.

It’s probably possible to extend Nicola’s BP-TinyMCE plugin to add a filter for profile fields as well… you’d have to bug Nicola about that.

Here’s a post which explains how someone added a filter to profile fields:

I might write a filter as well regarding this… we’ll see.

There is a forums user looking for help in Turkish. Perhaps you could take a look at this thread: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=3433

Oh yes, that’s what I meant. In alpha 2, the group categories and tags were displayed on the right side of the main group page. So if one of members click on the main group nav tab, they would see the group categories and tags. The same was true for the main members page.

Thanks so much for considering that.

Hi Burt,

Thank you for the explanation. I understand the logic.

Is there a way to restore the your list of group categories and group tags to display in the right column of the group section, and the same for the member page? The reason I ask is to help our members who are not as social network savvy and may not understand tags. If they just look on the right side, it may be easier for them to make the connection.

Thanks again.

Brian
