It’s either that, or get used to keeping track of several versions of each component.

There’s a reason web developers ask to get paid as much as they do.

…the avatar still doesn’t appear at all. Unless WordPress is hi-jacking the direct path somehow, I can’t manage to find that filename anywhere.

Anointed-

You already have an active thread on the same topic here: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=3146

What you are reporting is related to this known bug. You can read more about that bug here: https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/775

Brian-

I see that you are new to the BuddyPress forums. So, first things first, welcome!

Now, so as to help you more successfully navigate these forums, a few rules of the road. First, look at the sticky topics at the very top of the main forum page. There are a lot of useful, key pieces of advice that can be found there.

Second, posting in a 2-month old forum that is marked resolved will most likely not get you very far. Why? Because many of us skip over forum threads marked as resolved, looking to spend our time on issues that are still bothering members. Please read this thread for more tricks of the trade

Third, be careful when looking to follow advice in threads that are more than a month old. BuddyPress is a new platform and as such is evolving rapidly. What worked a few months ago, may no longer apply as better, easier to implement solutions get added to the core functionality. Therefore, if you cannot find a relatively recent thread on a topic, it is best to start a new thread just to make sure things have not changed–or to learn the proper way of doing something if they have changed

Finally, as to your question:

Where is the core? It is mentioned everywhere in this forum and I can’t find it for the life of me.

The core files are the primary BuddyPress files that are found in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/. Whereas some of them start with “bp-core-“, in general, all of the files found in the /buddypress/ directory are considered core files.

This thread is very outdated. A lot has changed in BuddyPress since this thread last had activity 3 months ago.

If you are simply looking for where you can change the text of the menu buttons “Home”, “Blog”, “Members”, “Groups”, “Blogs”, then it is found in the header.php file of both the home and member themes.

Hi,

Where is the core? It is mentioned everywhere in this forum and I can’t find it for the life of me. As a result, I am stuck, unable to follow the wonderful suggestions here.

I am using WordPress MU 2.7.1 and Buddypress 1.0.1

Thanks,

Brian

Hey:

I have read and reread this forum post to discern how to find and edit the nav bar names.

I am using WordPress MU 2.7.1

Buddypress 1.0.1

Facebuddy theme

Burt says: “- header.php in both the home and member theme dirs bp_nav_items() > bp-core-templatetags.php function bp_nav_items() ” but when I look in my files in the control panel, I can’t find it anyhwere.

I know this is super easy but I think I am missing a very basic file breadcrumb trail.

wp-content -> themes -> facebuddy-home-theme -> ?

I have looked in file after file for Burt’s mention of bp-core-templatetags and there is no bp-core that I can see anywhere or any kind of templatetag. What am I missing?

Thanks,

Brian

Ok this is how my site http://www.chatzooky.com is looking now

Don’t bother posting in trac. Somebody already did.

https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/775

Freaking Wildchild, I’m actually in the process still of scraping anything I can out of qTranslate to make a BuddyPress/WPMU specific multi-language plugin. qTranslate had lots of good ideas, but they translate a little strangely to the BP/WPMU way of thinking.

Will probably be a few days before I have a stable RC version available that won’t potentially break your install, but I haven’t abandoned the project by any means.

Wait until the new version of WPMU comes out and uses the NEWER version of jQuery, you’ll get to go through this all over again.

1.0.1 is a bug fix version, and it’s more stable than 1.0. If you’re experiencing problems after an upgrade, I’d advise you/us to figure out what happened rather than avoid the update/issue all together.

When 1.0.2 comes out, chances are you will still experience the same problems you did with 1.0.1, so the sooner we know what happened is the easier for everyone.

@chouxpastry2002-

You have asked two different question. I’m not sure which of those you are still looking for an answer.

As Andy stated, since this is an open source project, any documentation that currently exists on how to use BuddyPress or how to develop for BuddyPress can be found in the Codex. The information is growing but incomplete. It is up to the all-volunteer community to contribute to that documentation.

As far as media uploading, this will come with time. There is, however, a wonderful 3rd-party plugin that Manoj Kumar has developed in which you might be interested.

If it’s only with members then that sounds like a bug. Can you post this in trac please?

https://trac.buddypress.org/newticket same credentials as here.

Andy found a problem with the custom class. The totals won’t reflect properly. So you need to modify the code like this one:

http://buddypress.pastebin.com/m398024c5

That decrements the blog count total.

The next problem you’ll have is where to put this. If you put it in bp-custom.php like it is then it will crash and burn because the base class hasn’t been declared yet. So you’ll have to put that in a php file and include it *after* bp loads.

function bp_loaded(){

include(‘your-file-with-mods.php’);

}

add_action(‘plugins_loaded’,’bp_loaded’);

If you put that in bp-custom.php it should work right.

Could check to see if XMLRPC is working on your server. Download http://ourcommoninterest.org/downloads/xmlrpc-sayhello.zip which Burtadsit wrote.

And to steal some words from Lance Willett:

The test consists of two files. The first file is a bbPress plugin that you activate in the bbPress plugins area that acts as a XML-RPC server and responds to a simple “say hello” type call. The second file goes in the root of your MU setup.

This test bypasses all the “bbpress_live/discover_pingback_server_uri()” stuff that might be giving you problems. If this works then the issue is most likely in that area and could be a host/server problem.

To load the test, first install the “oci-bb-sayhello.php” file to your bbPress install root in a folder called “my-plugins” (create the folder if it doesn’t exist). Then log into bbPress and activate the plugin. Next, drop the “oci-bp-sayhello.php” file into the root of our MU install so that you can navigate to it easily. Then load “your-site/oci-bp-sayhello.php” in a browser and see what the output is.

I am glad your issue is resolved! If that is the case, please set the light to green in both this thread and this one.

By the way, this is the particular question I asked in the other thread that you did not answer. I asked:

You also are saying that you did not touch the code or CSS within those two theme directories at all.

From your post above, it appears that you did indeed touch the CSS and that is what caused the problem.

As to your last question:

I take i need to be more selective in what put in sitewide.css is it not possible to just copy base.css and edit that?

Since you are in essence making a custom theme every time you touch a single piece of code or CSS in the default themes, you should follow this approach.

Make a copy of both bphome theme and bpmember theme. Give them new, unique names. Your theme customizations should be done in these copies, not the originals. That way, if you have issues with your custom themes (and we all do when working on customization), you can switch back to the standard BP themes to see how things should work.

Nope. There’s no hidden ‘exclude’ parameter. If you really need this you can:

1) Derive a new class from BP_Blogs_Site_Blogs_Template modifying the constructor to exclude the blogs you want from the list of blogs returned by BP_Blogs_Blog::get_<whatever>()

2) Create a new template tag that modifies the standard version of bp_has_site_blogs() to call your derived template class instead of the standard one.

3) Modify your theme to use the new bp_has_site_blogs() template loop goodie.

Like this code here: http://buddypress.pastebin.com/d12aa57a1

That code is totally untested.

There sure is. Kinda.

$forums = bp_forums_get_forum();

if ($forums){

foreach ($forums as $f){

.. do something with each forum like..

$topics = bp_forums_get_topics($f['forum_id'], 5);

.. do something with each topic ..

}

}

bp_forums_get_forum() returns bbpress forum records. Same info as in the bb_forums table.

See:

/bbpress/xmlrpc.php

/buddypress/bp-forums.php

/buddypress/bp-forums/bp-forums-bbpress-live.php

/buddypress/bp-forums/bp-forums-templatetags.php

The BP_Forums_Template_Forum template loop class iterates over one specific forum.

Hi guys,

Yeh, I’ve got this problem as well – can’t register the bbpress key-master as admin because it says i already have a user named admin (in buddypress)

I’m using 1.0-rc-2 – sorry to be dumb but is this the same as 1.0 alpha 6? If it isn’t where can i find the alpha one? I can’t find it on the bbpress site.

(Btw, I’m using buddypress 1.0.1 and WPMU 2.7.1).

Thanks if anyone can let me know. This integration is proving a challenge!!!
