BuddyPress.org

According to the recently published Buddypress roadmap (https://buddypress.org/about/roadmap/) privacy controls will be included in Version 1.2 – no date assigned yet.

does anyone know if anythings happening with this?

Oh man… that sounds like a mammoth of a project. Here’s the dealbreaker, though — and I speak from personal experience — if you’ve already got something else running in your root directory, it’s not gonna work. And it actually says so in the WPMU readme file…

“If you want subdomain blogs, you must use the root of your site.”

Assuming you didn’t have anything installed in your root, I’m pretty sure there’s no plugin/patch job that exists yet to hook up multiple installations of BuddyPress so that a single user could hop around from site to site. I suppose if they registered every time with the same username/password, they could just rely on the “saved password” feature most browsers already have — but that’s probably not what you’re looking for.

Here’s a shot in the dark.

Go to your permalinks setting page and resubmit it. You don’t have to change anything.

I have found that has fixed some of my page issues when I was under the hood constructing new pages by hand.

Just a thought.

Good one, P.S..

This one could be great using as a temporary solution. Does anyone of you guys know when this will be a feature in Buddypress? Days,? Weeks or mabye months?

The plugin is working just fine with WPMU, but to be quite honest I don’t understand what good this one will do to a wpmu-installation running Buddypress.

Gpo1, Why are you posting this? Can you explain what you think this plugin will give anyone? Just wondering cause I just don’t get it..

Achieved partial success. Followed the site-wide.css advice mentioned in this forum by zeitwise and was able to eliminate the main profile ‘blogs’ nav item but the sub navigation ‘blogs’ component remains;

found the most important clue so far in this file:

wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-templatetags.php

on lines 56 – 104

but still elusive.

Tried following Tim Moore suggestion of bp-custom.php but that did not do anything.

Tried following Enlightenmental1 suggestion of renaming bp-blogs.phpDISABLED but that turned off all blogs including the home blog which I still find useful.

This coding seems to be all over the place. Any other ideas from anyone?

Goal: eliminate the ‘Blogs’ in the Me menu and the Options or Other User menu. Have succeeded in hiding Blogs in the Me menu but no luck for the other two.

Thanks,

Brian

I am using Buddypress 1.0.1 and added code:

<img src=”http://www.smallinternetbusiness.com/wp-content/images/search_engine_optimization_consultant.jpg”/&gt;

It only displayed the tag “<img>” instead of the image on the homepage.

I noticed the above code is added to Buddypress 1.0.1. Any ideas on if I am doing anything wrong or is there a code widget problem

Congratulations! This has been a long haul for you.

Why does the wpmu installer mention to not use 127.0.0.1?

Haha! Good question. I have not installed a brand new instance of WPMU for awhile so I cannot remember exactly what the installer indicates. But, I don’t think it says don’t use 127.0.0.1. Does it?

I believe it says use localhost.localdomain which if you do, the installer comes back and says, “WPMU only works without the port number in the URL.” So, when installing on a localhost environment–at least on a Mac–you’re stuck wondering what is going on.

But, this is why using the local IP address worked. It is the actual address of the local machine mapped to the alias called localhost. So, by using this, you don’t need to include the port number.

Hi Jeff,

i set up everything again (deleted complete wpmu and database). I changed host from localhost to 127.0.0.1 as u described above, even if wpmu claims to not use localhost or 127.0.0.1 as host. Now everything ist working without a problem!

Why does the wpmu installer mention to not use 127.0.0.1 ?!

Okay, locking this thread as the answer can now be found here.

Your welcome Well, in that case… you might want to check out Ning for a complete hassle-free solution. I think all you have to do is point your domain to it and style it within Ning.com. You’re kinda stuck with the whole layout and functionality but this might be the answer to what you want to build. Here’s a good example of what you can do with it… http://www.urijahfaber.com/

+++++++++++++++!

I’ve also answered this same-resurrected-thread issue this morning in this thread:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=933

This is something i was wondering about, the question i have is how to create this default blog?

Do i have edit the new (copy of bp_members) or is this something that can be done via CP?

cheers

You can’t without a special plugin: https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/9049

Perhaps a search at the WPMU forums will bring up some more recent results than the one I’ve provided.

I’m setting this thread to resolved since BuddyPress uses the WPMU user table and thus this is a WPMU issue and not BuddyPress.

This has not yet been implemented. As this thread has not seen any activity for 4 months, I would suggest searching the trac and see if it was ever added as a feature request / enhancement ticket. If not, you can add it yourself!

You login to trac using your BP.org credentials.

As a side note, the reordering of groups would need to exclude the first field group as it is the grouping of fields that appear on the signup page.

As thebloghouse has resolved the thread’s original issue, I’m setting this thread to resolved.

@thebloghouse

As the originator of this thread, you can always reset to “not resolved” if need be!

chukkide-

Burt is correct. This is not the way that BP works. You asked how the slug can be removed, not how can you change the slug title. To do that, read this.

But, to remove the slug completely, as you asked, is outside the purview of BP. It may be possible with some fancy .htaccess rewrite rules, but it could cause issues with the way BP works.

I spent an hour or so looking into this the other day until I realized what was going on. I do agree that it can be confusing and annoying.

Read this thread–especially my last post–for the answer!
