BuddyPress.org

Hi Wythagy

The newest version requires WPMU 2.7 branch which is still in development (http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress-mu/branches/2.7/) as well as the latest BuddyPress (by which I mean the BuddyPress SVN trunk https://svn.buddypress.org/trunk).

If you are using BP RC1, then Welcome Pack doesn’t work full stop. Could you clarify what versions you are using so I can check stuff out? Thanks.

You have a blog that you allow people to have the role of Author. You want to restrict your authors to posting in certain categories only? Buddypress doesn’t have this capability but I’m sure you will be able to find such a plugin in the wp plugin directory: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/

Well I got it activated by replacing…

require_once( WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/buddypress/bp-core.php' );<br />

with this one:

require_once(WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/mu-plugins/bp-core.php');<br />

but, I don’t see any options or anything on the admin side. I’m assuming some constants or global variables must have changed since I am using the latest release of BP…does anyone have an updated version of this plugin that works?

Okay so I have the latest BP, why am I getting…

Warning: require_once(/html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /html/wp-content/plugins/welcome-pack.php on line 14

sorry i still dont understand exactly what it is this will enable, i kinda understand how xmlrpc works for wordpress to enable trackbacks but what will this do for us and buddypress??

uhhg. Wrecked my member theme. But I must say the structure is way better.

@johnjamesjacoby

How did you create that page: http://delsolownersclub.com/discussions

That’s exactly what I want to do on my site.

I’ve got @Burtadsit’s bbGroup plugin up and running.

How did you integrate it into your buddypress theme?

Is it a ‘page’ in the root blog or a special page?

Thx, Gordon

I created a function that lives in the BP_Activity_Activity class that gets recent group activity. I uploaded it as a patch in trac https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/668

get_sitewide_activity() returns all sorts of activity not related to that group. The new function that I uploaded gets just the activity for the specified group. If you apply that patch to the bp-activity-classes.php file and build some template php around it then you’ll get your activity display.

$activity = BP_Activity_Activity::get_activity_for_group( $site_groups_template->group, 2 );

That call above would work in the group directory template file. You’ll have to build something to display the returned $activity items like the site wide activity widget does.

See bp-activity-widgets.php for a guide. This little template tag below displays some raw unformated activity.

function my_the_site_group_activity($limit = 2){

global $site_groups_template;

$activity = BP_Activity_Activity::get_activity_for_group( $site_groups_template->group, $limit );

foreach ((array)$activity as $item){

echo apply_filters( ‘bp_activity_content’, bp_activity_content_filter( $item[‘content’], $item[‘date_recorded’], ”, true, false, true ) );

}

}

You can put that fn in your bp-custom.php file and try it out. I just stuck it in a div under the description tag in groups-loop.php for testing.

1) deactivate the plugins

2) removing them

3) remove themes

OPTIONAL:

4) Remove wp_bp_* tables

Say hello to BuddyPress

report it in the trac

Peter-

I realize that you are not getting the answers you desire. You must have a sufficient understanding of and comfort level with PHP before you can delve too deeply into hacking your own solutions or coding your own theme templates. Otherwise, you need to use the stock WPMU and BuddyPress install and then customize with any plugins and 3rd-party themes that may be useful.

Since we do not have any idea of your particular coding skills, we are trying to point you in the right direction. Please realize that beyond a certain point, we cannot help you write your own custom code.

We all started at the beginning when it came to coding and then had another learning curve when it came to understanding the inner workings of WordPress and BuddyPress. It can be frustrating along the way but it is indeed possible to accomplish!

Here are a few more tips:

1. Since you do seem to be wanting to group all user data within stock WP tables, you should search the WP and WPMU forums and ask your questions there
2. Visit these WP Codex pages to help shed more light:

• https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wpdb_Class
• https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference

3. Google for tips on learning data-driven PHP coding
4. Hire a 3rd-party developer who can do the work: hacking files directly or create a plugin that will accomplish what you’re after

Please hang in there and don’t give up hope.

…and everything seems to work:

A /home/jbailey/www/html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-friends.php

etc… etc… etc…

…Checked out revision 1324.

But when I check the plugins folder, Buddypress isn’t there. (I’m using Coda, by the way)

First time using subversion, so I don’t really know what I’m doing.

I don’t know why this keeps cutting my post in half, I’ll give it one more try:

I’m also having trouble with the svn, I do this:

svn co https://svn.buddypress.org/trunk/ /home/jbailey/www/html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/

Whoops, it cut me off… I meant to say:

I’m also having trouble with the svn, I do this:

`svn co https://svn.buddypress.org/trunk/ /home/jbailey/www/html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/

I’m also having trouble with the svn, I do this:

svn co https://svn.buddypress.org/trunk/ /home/jbailey/www/html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/

Thanks for the css. I haven’t tried it yet. Got sidetracked. Does any of that fix the overflow of text problem? If so then post the fix in trac as a patch or comment here: https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/665

The problem with the sitewide activity is that you can get all the activities you want but it’s not really formatted for easy detection of specific group activities. The only indication that it’s from a specific group is the bp_activity_sitewide table fields ‘primary_link’ and ‘component_name’.

The component_name will be ‘groups’ and the primary_link will be something like this: http://ourcommoninterest.dev/groups/public

Take a look at bp-activity-classes.php get_sitewide_activity()

You can’t just make a call to a canned function with some parameters and get stuff for a specific group.

Yes i tried burtadsits code in my bp-custom.php but no joy.. just get a few php errors in my header..
