BuddyPress.org

I have been trying to help you!

Try Dashboard > BuddyPress > Forum Setup and then reinstall and set up a new bbPress installation. It sounds like something is wrong with your bb-config.php.

If nothing else works, and you don’t yet have any content in your installation anyway, you should consider wiping your database and starting from scratch. Clearly something has happened that is keeping BP from communicating with your bbPress database tables.

No harm done If you, or anyone else who works with BuddyPress themes, have issues like this with the template tags, and would like them done in a different way, I’d love to see an enhancement ticket filed on trac.buddypress.org with an example of what you’d like it to work like. Make up function names, etc.

It’s much easier to implement something you’d love rather than something we’d love

Have you contacted the author of BuddyPress Mobile? What did they have to say?

Mark, I’ve just tested the translation on a test site. Some of the BuddyPress localisation seems to work, most of it doesn’t. I think the .mo file is incomplete.

Have you contacted the maintainer to ask if it is up-to-date? I’m not sure who looks after Polish. (It might be a silly question, but it’s worth checking).

I’ve reopened https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/2662

@djpaul

OK, apology in order – my temperature sizzled, and I jumped to the conclusion that they were being added in the core, and not as a filter in the default theme (which is a damn good place for them!).

Now, if only you could tear half the other activity presentation stuff out of the core – or leastways create some more granular template tags / functions – so that we’re not stuck PHP unlocking those monolithic activity strings. That would be really lovely.

Apologies again, bit of humble pie for me, and @nuprn1 .. thanks for pointing out the filter

And does /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core.php exist?

1. Yes.
2. Not sure what you mean. Nothing in core limits members, anyway.
3. Yes, but not in core. Use https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/s2member/
4. See 3.
5. Not sure. 3. might be able to help, or it might not.
6. See 3.

This link will show all differences in the theme files. It might be of help? Red is removed, green is added.

https://trac.buddypress.org/changeset?old_path=/tags/1.2.5.2/bp-themes/bp-default&new_path=/tags/1.2.6/bp-themes/bp-default/

To clarify, the above link shows changes in the bundled “BP-Default” theme, and it was intended for any theme designers who have created a BP-Default child theme to help pin-point the changes. It won’t apply to any other theme. Sorry for any confusion.

EDIT: third time’s the charm

I’m not sure if this should go into core, but if you haven’t already, submit it as an enhancement suggestion on https://trac.buddypress.org/. It’s something that could be implemented reasonably easily as a plugin until then, however.

For the first question, I don’t know where you are hooking your code into. Are you able to use bp_get_the_topic_permalink()?
For the second, no. You’d have to pass along that text with the page redirect in, i.e. $_GET, and then hook into an action so you can squirt the text back into reply_text textbox with Javascript.

If you submit an enhancement ticket for this on https://trac.buddypress.org/, we could add such an action in to make it easier.

I don’t think it’s unfair that we revise the theme and any of the bundled widgets with each release. We need to be able to iterate on all areas of the theme (and other presentational elements) in order to continue to improve and add new features to BuddyPress. As Rich says, to remove the secondary avatar, put this into your functions.php:


remove_filter( 'bp_get_activity_action_pre_meta', 'bp_dtheme_activity_secondary_avatars', 10, 2 );


Cool, nice resource

you can remove it via the filter bp_get_activity_secondary_avatar

or even better just remove this filter that is used in the functions.php
`remove_filter( ‘bp_get_activity_action_pre_meta’, ‘bp_dtheme_activity_secondary_avatars’, 10, 2 );`

@rogercoathup – no idea… seems if a trac report is submitted the request is made if possible. (maybe not enough discussion is made in the ticket comments to counter – generally speaking for any enhancement)

‘What’ you should change sort of depends on if you are using a child theme of the BuddyPress default theme or not. There is quite a list of updates for the theme changes the members is one, ajax.php /js and functions.php is another along with some member/group/forum loop stuff. I would strongly suggest if you can getting the latest update from your theme source particularly as you say you are a novice which I take means not comfy in code?
