BuddyPress.org

Okay, why don’t both of you go through this list to see if there are other commonalities:

Please post your response to those questions here.

I tried downloading wpmu 2.7.0 and bp 1.0.1 – only the budypress activation returns error 500 in this case, the rest of the site continues to function.

This would be great!

Step 1 – Download latest version of WordPress MU (2.7.1)

Step 2 – install on server and verify it is working

Step 3 – Download latest version of BuddyPress (1.0.2)

Step 4 – copy to the plugins directory

Result

Error 500 on all pages

I just did a query on the members table then did a for each on the results. and for each group run the buddypress function:

global $wpdb;

$groups = $wpdb->get_results(“SELECT * FROM wp_bp_groups order by name”, ARRAY_A);

foreach ($groups as $group) :

bp_group_has_members(‘group_id=’.$group[‘id’].’&exclude_admins_mods=false’)

Then $group[‘name’] will get you the members name.

Hope that helps you!

Topic reopened per plugin developer.

Let’s keep it on point people.

Possible that the themes are missing or deactivated somehow. Are you able to access the admin area? If so, can you make sure you have a member theme active and in the correct location? Same with your home theme?

The only plugins that need to be deactivated are those that are dependent upon BuddyPress. So, if you don’t have any of those in mu-plugins, you should be fine keeping them as is.

Andy is working on some code that will automatically deactivate all BP-dependent plugins whenever BP gets deactivated. Of course, this code will need to be retroactively added to all current BP plugins out there, but I imagine plugin devs will simply add this coding to one of their next versions.

I would imagine you’d be best to take the plugins out of mu-plugins and put them in a new folder called “temp”, upgrade BP, and then replace the files back into mu-plugins.

The reason why this is necessary (for now) is because plugins that depend on BuddyPress being active do not have a dedicated way to check for its existence, and will die when BP isn’t there.

This will be addressed in future versions.

You shouldn’t be getting an error if you are using a recent version of bp. Not sure exactly when this got introduced but the current version give out an error message like this ‘[Adjust Time Zone]’ in place of the invalid recent activity date.

From this thread: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=2437#post-13341

The problem is you need to adjust your time zone. 



For the "time since" to work correctly, the timezone setting

for your root blog has to match the time on your server.



You can change it under "Settings > General" in your /wp-admin/ area.

There is a translation svn repo in the works. From the buddypress-dev mailing list 6/25/2009:

“The plan is in the next week or two to have a subversion repository set up for your language files. Each time you make a change, please keep the repo up to date with the latest version. I’ll give a weeks notice when a launch is close, so you can make sure your translations are up to date.

I’ll then take the latest for each language and bundle them in the bp-languages folder.”

In case anyone is interested, D’Arcy Norman figured out the fix to the Multi-DB issue:

http://www.darcynorman.net/2009/06/25/buddypress-and-multidb/

I have not heard of one. Your best bet, as I said, is to contact the developers of those plugins and ask them if the are working on supporting BuddyPress.

You could also post a suggestion here or, if you’re willing to pay for the development of such a plugin, post a job here.

There’s no need to double post. You’ve already started a thread 5 days ago with this same basic topic here: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=3268#post-17974

As DJPaul told you in that thread, he is working on an achievements plugin. It takes time to code proper plugins. So, if you do not have the skills yourself, then you’ll need to be patient and wait for it to be released.

Integrating P2 as a member theme is better cos it would seem like the New facebook Theme with a twitter feel if done using one column like the buddypress.org site!

I completely agree with Donnacha.

To integrate these two products would make a lot more sense than the products existing separately. P2 has little public use at the present and BuddyPress doesn’t encourage participation outside of forums. The current generation of BuddyPress themes do not do the technology justice, either.

I firmly believe mingling the two extensions together will lead to a bigger and brighter future for the both.

The question is, now, how do we go about coding these two together? I’m willing to work on this, but I’d really like a volunteer to partner with me for when I get stumped.

@gwsa

where do you host your site? Just in case other bp users face the same nightmare when choosing the host…

I’ve never seen this problem, my install just works properly. Make sure you disable all other plugins but bp when solving this problem.

Do you have any plugins, other than BuddyPress installed and activated. If so, try temporarily deactivating them all and see if the problem goes away. Please report back here.

gwsa – because this is not a BuddyPress bug. It’s something to do with your setup, hence the reason no one else has had the problem.

Are you sure you don’t have any crazy re-write rules or symlinks for your themes folder?
