BuddyPress.org

sportstwit.com is a really cool combination of prologue and BP. I would love to have access to themes like this and be a part of its development.

Also looking forward to Nicole’s theme. Genius stuff! I will be watching this thread.

Thank you.

Backup any custom edits you’ve made to date and re-install wpmu and buddypress in a newly named directory. Then re-install your custom files. A half hour’s work…

Hi Steve:

This is how I did it:

As hyrxx above mentioned, go to: buddypress-home -> css -> base.css

Look for Header section in base.css. The fist part looks like this:

/*** HEADER **********/

#header {

padding: 25px 20px;

}

#header h1 {

width: 214px;

height: 29px;

overflow: hidden;

text-indent: -999px;

background: url(../images/logo.png) top left no-repeat;

float: left;

Just change the width and height to what your logo size is. You need to do the same on base.css in your member themes as well. I had to go into file management on my server to edit this, due to MU not having a theme editor option.

I am also very very interested in this. Please feel free to contact us for testing, etc.

Thank You

Vida

This Calendar/Event functionality would be great! The Event Calendar 3 plugin does work fairly well for single WP installs but I’ve been hoping for something cleaner for some time. I hope the BuddyPress Event Calendar can do the trick!

At the moment yes. Things are as you describe. I’ve got a little plugin coming out when bp goes 1.0 that integrates bp group forums and bbpress. bp Public groups will be readonly in bbpress except for group members. Private and Hidden groups will have their forums hidden in bbpress except for group members. Group admins and moderators will have forum moderation capabilities in bbpress.

All users in bp/mu can post to any forum in bbpress with user integration.

its in the css, located in buddypress-home/css/base.css,

look for the logo class, its definately really easy to do, i have done it on my own site

Hi,

I have the exact same error with the latest release of buddypress and wp 2.7, and just as jfcarter explained my templates are also in the correct directories with the correct permissions. The system looks for “buddypress-home” instead of “member-themes”

wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-home/index.php) [function.load-template]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /wp-includes/theme.php on line 822

john it isn’t built-in you should install bbpress in another directory and integrate that with wpmu

Yeah, I think in general it would be nice if buddypress played well with the wpmu profile fields, or at least if they could snyc up somehow. I was able to manually run some mysql queries to import all of my old data, but being able to use the same “display name” would be helpful!

Check the sticky from Trent on how to integrate bbPress with BuddyPress – that’s the only option right now for an “integrated” (as it’s not all that integrated) forum.

If you don’t want to use widgets, I believe you can find what you’re looking for here… https://codex.buddypress.org/developer-docs/action-reference/

…but you should be using widgets as it’s much easier to make changes in the future instead of keeping track of hard coded function calls in your theme;)

speaking from previous wpmu experience

Hey IB,

I think you’re current setup should work for what you need to do. You may need to add a couple plugins though.

You said these were the trouble items…

site.com > WPRemix theme.

user.site.com > BuddyPress Home theme – but no widgets setup (I thought that that should have gone to either the user’s profile or the user’s blog?).

My set up is similar.

site.com > Using main BP theme

user.site.com > Using a default theme I specified using a plugin called “New Blog Defaults” that allows me to set the default theme for any blog that’s created.

Now, the difference might be that my version of user.site.com is actually a user blog address, not just a user name. Does the user your trying access have a blog domain as well? Or just a user (profile) name?

If it’s just a profile name, then the url would be http://site.com/members/membername/

Yes me,

I integrated the blog in the user interface too,

it’s not finished yet

I think the lesson here is don’t install WPMU in a subdirectory (in your case URL/blogs). If you think about it, without Buddypress plugins installed you already have the permalink URL/blogs going to your main install. Now, with the Buddypress plugins installed, you’ve duplicated that link because it too goes to “URL/blogs”. Do you see what I mean?

I believe if you install WPMU in the root of your site the problem will go away. Alternately, try changing the name of your subdirectory to anything but “blogs” and you’ll probably be OK.

Thx

Hi, sorry for my bad english.

I looking for a plugin that makes buddypress a private network. I found this plugin: Secure invitations – http://wpmudev.org/project/secure-invitations. But its not work with BP.

Can anyone intagrate this plugin with BP?

So the above little blog to news function doesn’t work for me.

I’m not using the trunk, just the most recent beta. Could that be the problem?

I’m using the latest wp-mu and latest buddypress, and I experienced the same problem as you guys have which is site activity feed is not working. Love to see this fix.
