BuddyPress.org

Re plugin – you might want to look at how BP Group CSS plugin is done – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-css/ where CSS can be set by group

Re pure CSS manipulation – filter body class to add e.g. username to body class so you can manipulate layout, colors, fonts, etc. in individual member pages

@paulhastings0 – I was able to setup a local host environment on a Mac for WP 3.0.1 AND enabling the multisite user (though I never got to testing any sites in DW yet as I immediately installed BP). An outstanding tutorial on how to do this can be found here: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/wordpress/how-to-set-up-a-killer-wordpress-testing-environment-locally/

Nice to see that new BuddyPress Themes are finally popping up! Well done guys

On the sales page is also a full list of features for all the different versions of the Theme. Hope you guys like it!

Buddypress needs permalinks setup before installation. Check out this brief install guide : https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/setting-up-a-new-installation/

@gosukeuno, tomorrow we will upload a new version, the problem should be fixed then. Thanks!

@thekmen Did you find a way to add verified accounts ?

@whitbyglennk if you have BP 1.2.6 installed, there’s some conflict with BP Template Pack https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-template-pack/. Check out @hotforwords‘ BP Template Pack “fix/upgrade” in this thread https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/buddypress-template-pack-and-buddypress-1-2-6-things-break-but-i-have-a-solution

@whitbyglennk – been there many times because sometimes it is just the word choices for finding the threads

Frontend users can also add events using Eventpress. You just need to click on the “Create event” tab within the events page (http://domain.com/events/create/). See screenshot: http://i56.tinypic.com/k4fn9f.gif
What I like about Travel_Junkie’s Buddyvents event plugin is the clean event creation process and the fabulous grid view.

@abstorm You’ll need to upgrade people to Event Creators (a new role is created) to allow them to create events—and they can do that via both the front end or back end.

BuddyVents is good too.

I was actually under the impression that WordPress 3.0.1 stopped working with Dreamweaver CS5. Have you verified that this is a BuddyPress-specific problem?

I wrote a plugin where everybody can create events. Can also be restricted to just group admins.
Have a look here: http://test.shabushabu.eu/

Notice that there is a price tag attached to the plugin.

Awesome, good to know – I’ll have a more proper fix for the plugin sometime soon, but this will definitely work as a stopgap.

Non-admins are not shown the upload fields. Adding the actions and will let you know.

Update: Yes. That worked. Thank you.

I also just noticed that the buddypress Foursquare API isn’t installed

Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘./bp-foursquare-classes’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/php5/lib/php:/home/content/76/6912176/html/ncsocial/wp-content/plugins/buddystream’) in /home/content/76/6912176/html/ncsocial/wp-content/plugins/bp-foursquare-api/bp-foursquare.php on line 24

Can I get a bit of clarification on what “can’t” means in “users can’t upload”? Does it mean that the upload field isn’t showing up at all for non-admins? Or does it mean that they get an error when they do try uploading?

If it’s the former, try pasting the following lines into the very beginning of forum-attachments-for-buddypress-bp-functions.php, right after `<?php`:
`add_action(‘groups_forum_new_topic_after’,’bb_attachments_upload_form’);
add_action(‘groups_forum_new_reply_after’, ‘bb_attachments_upload_form’);
add_action(‘groups_forum_edit_post_after’, ‘bb_attachments_upload_form’);
add_action(‘bp_after_group_forum_post_new’, ‘bb_attachments_upload_form’);
add_action(‘bp_group_after_edit_forum_post’, ‘bb_attachments_upload_form’);`

Ditto the problem here. We can’t be the only three that work with CS5 and Buddypress. Any answers here …. pretty please.
