BuddyPress.org

gogoplata, this is running a week old now. Is it resolved? I’m turning off the light until you switch it back on.

People let me say this clearly: BP DOES NOT CHANGE THE PERMALINK STRUCTURE OF ANY BLOG!

There is no instance of the global object $wp_rewrite in any bp code or any call to $wp_rewrite->set_permalink_structure()

Not in the member theme, not in the home theme and not in any bp plugin.

bp is not changing the permalink structure. The only thing bp does is hijack the word ‘blog’ and load the index.php template. That’s it.

@pietro28, what version of bp and wpmu are you using? Did you install wpmu in the directory mysite.com/blog ?

This thread has a solution. It turns off all the auto linking in the profile fields. Right now it’s either on or off.

I hope I Make the deadline..

Just a sneak peak

Anyone else?

No it isn’t going to as of yet.

There is no direct link between a normal forum and BuddyPress. Perhaps the bbGroups plugin could be modified to handle this type of thing, but that’s just handing Burt more implied work to do.

Good job getting everything synchronized though!

Could this be added in the Buddypress Settings, in site admin – possibly under “Base profile group name” field?

It would be nice to enter a name for each, and all places ie. ‘Members’ is mentioned it would be updated to chosen name.

Members could be named anything – Patrons, Users, Constituents, Associates, Individuals, People etc.

Groups could be Teams, Bands, Parties, Crowds, Communities, Gangs, Scenes etc.

A new install and still playing with it http://www.chatzooky.com

ooops

False alarm on my blank page sarga.

It was NOT connected to the bp-components; it was the super cache plugin since i moved directories.

The plugin uses a fixed path!

I only found that out by going through the code echoing a timestamp and exiting code block by block. Finally followed the culprit code to an advanced-cache include in wp-settings.

Oh well!

Looking forward to bp v1 with its auto upgrade.

You’re in luck I just had to do this myself, and here is how I did it.

I created a new php file that I wanted to use for the page and added this to the top of the file:

<?php

/*

Template Name: MY_TEMPLATE_NAME

*/

?>

you can make, MY_TEMPLATE_NAME, whatever, but be careful there are some reserved template names.

Save this file in the root directory of your home theme (i.e. wp-content/themes/buddypress-home) now under your admin blog write a new page (NOT POST), make the title relevant to what you want, but don’t put anything in the actual page.

Scroll down to the “Page Template” menu and when expanded you should see a drop down box with the “MY_TEMPLATE_NAME” as an option. choose that and now just copy down your permalink, and that is the direct link to your newly created page. SIMPLE! I also added in my side_bar to the page I created so that the navigation menu stayed put as I move through all of my pages.

This is only if you install the BuddyPress home theme. It should not do this if you just use your existing theme.

Free licensing is kind of crucial I’d say. Why not use GPL, like BuddyPress does?

You simply can’t do it, but the old posts should still direct you to their new locations.

Well, I suppose you could change the /blog to / but I’d hate to see what kind of havoc that could cause.

Proceed at your own risk...

Site Admin->Blogs->Edit your main blog



Change "Path" to "/" and "Permalink Structure" to remove "/blog" and see what happens.

My guess is dogs and cats, living together, mass hysteria. :X

Not yet. The reason 1.0 is slightly delayed is so that WPMU can be installed to allow for always-on plugins like BuddyPress to be part of the automatic updater going forward.

For now it’s a manual process, but it won’t always be that way.

Wow that’s neat.

Any demos? I couldn’t find one after 2 seconds so I got lazy and figured I’d ask.

Hi all,

Are these instructions still applicable to the latest SVN version of BP.

I downloaded the latest trunk last night and replaced the mu-plugins with the SVN one. I left the themes as they were as the theme works with RC1 components.

However, after replacing all the components with the latest SVN copies i got a blank screen.

A PHP error probably, i shall turn on logging when i get back and have another look.

Just wondered if there was a new way to upgrade now?

Yes you may.

Yes there can, through a plugin.

The answer has been here waiting for you.

More specifically, here.
