In reply to: Home theme vs buddypress theme
Andy Peatling
KeymasterAh i see where you are coming from now.
It would be really confusing if their username was displayed or used anywhere in BuddyPress, but users are displayed using their full name. Once the tie to the username is removed from the messaging component, their username is basically irrelevant aside from logging in.

MemberThe problem though, as I understand it, is that existing users already have a blog associated with their username… not their profile/home base. That’s kind of confusing, no?

KeymasterGreat news!

KeymasterBuddyPress should work on existing installations, but the “buddypress” theme should not be used for regular blogs or enabled for people to use as their blog theme.
Basically the BuddyPress theme stays hidden, and is only used for home bases. Existing members can log in and follow the instructions on the “Create Home Base” tab that they will see once BuddyPress is installed.
As long as you have the “buddypress” theme in the /wp-content/themes/ directory, it should work ok.

MemberNo, I was trying to figure out why the buddypress theme wasn’t working for his blog. I was confused about the whole homebase/profile/blog distinction. The problem is that some of the blogs were already created using their usernames.. so the homebases were all screwed up. Good to know.
Mental note: install BP on a clean install. (I know it’s been said before, but this is a good resaon why)

ParticipantStill not really clear on what’s not working correctly, though that blog you linked to has a different theme than the rest of the site. Is that what you were trying to do?

ParticipantI downloaded Opera but can’t seem to replicate the problems, though I did customize the logo as I outlined here. Might be worth trying that out to see if it solves the issues.
October 10, 2008 at 3:19 pm #33290In reply to: Home theme vs buddypress theme
MemberIt’s just not working like that though. http://columbiahizzle.geekdc.com/
Is that just because he hasn’t logged into to create his home page?

ParticipantAnybody can help? Please……
October 10, 2008 at 2:54 am #33286In reply to: Home theme vs buddypress theme
ParticipantI am not sure I fully understand what you’re asking, but the BuddyPress theme is a great starting point. Users can still choose their own theme (provided you’ve installed and enabled them). On Testbp.org the user profiles use the BuddyPress theme while the blogs use the default WordPress theme.
The BuddyPress theme can also be deconstructed so you can integrate the features you want into a theme of your own to further customize your community’s look and functionality.
October 10, 2008 at 2:47 am #33285In reply to: Create a Home Base! doesn’t work
ParticipantIs full registration (users+blogs) enabled under Site Admin/Options? “Enabled. Blogs and user accounts can be created.” should be selected on that page. I believe this was the error I received when I tried to create a home base and full registration wasn’t enabled.
Also, is this a clean install of 2.6.2 and what version of the BuddyPress plugins are you using so we can help you out if the above issue isn’t the problem.
October 9, 2008 at 7:17 pm #33279In reply to: Privacy options (friends only viewing)
ParticipantGlad you found and shared a temporary workaround. This was also brought up in another topic recently, and Andy said “In the first version for the end of the year, BuddyPress will only support open networks. However, the plan is to put together a generic privacy component which can be used by all components to restrict and allow customizable privacy levels.”.
Privacy isn’t built in yet but it will be soon enough.
October 9, 2008 at 7:14 pm #33277In reply to: Plugins not showing up in WPMU
ParticipantDid you install them in /mu-plugins/ or just /plugins/?
Plugins installed in /mu-plugins/, such as BuddyPress, will not show up on the plugins page as plugins in this folder are automatically activated across the entire WPMU install.
On the other hand, if plugins are only needed on a blog-by-blog basis they are to be installed in the regular /plugins/ directory and will be shown on the plugins page just as in regular wordpress.
The BuddyPress plugins are supposed to be installed in /mu-plugins/ per step 3 of the instructions.

MemberHere’s what I did as a temporary solution (this is prob. not the best way, so I wouldnt recommend it). In each /theme/buddypress/plugin folder, for example /theme/buddypress/profile/index.php after div id=”content”> I added
<?php
global $bp, $wpmu;
$potential_friend_id = $bp['current_userid'];
$friend_status = BP_Friends_Friendship::check_is_friend( $bp['loggedin_userid'], $potential_friend_id );
if ( $friend_status != 'is_friend' && $potential_friend_id != $bp['loggedin_userid']) {
echo "You must be friends to view this profile.".bp_add_friend_button();
} else { ?>then before the last </div> in the file i added

KeymasterDelete what you have, and install the trunk:
https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk
Use the “zip archive” link at the bottom of that page.
October 7, 2008 at 6:38 pm #33258In reply to: Installed But No ‘Profile’ tab
ParticipantWas your WPMU install clean and functioning properly when you attempted the BuddyPress install?
October 7, 2008 at 5:59 pm #33257In reply to: Site admin management of groups
KeymasterYep, group administration and editing will be in the next version of the groups component. I’ll be moving onto that next, once the home theme is in.
That slide was really only for a high level overview. The best bet is to look at each component here:
https://trac.buddypress.org/wiki/roadmap
Basically, everything on the list for each component needs to be done before it’s considered ready for a first real release.

Duane Storey
ParticipantI can try taking a stab at that in a few days. It would be nice if ideally the syntax was the same between all BuddyPress installations (even though some use subdomains for blogs and others use /blog syntax).
Any suggestions on what the ideal URL syntax would be for all of this?
/home/andy – home?
/blogs/andy – all of andy’s blogs?
/profile/andy – andy’s profile?

October 7, 2008 at 6:23 am #33250In reply to: OpenID Support?
KeymasterI believe Will Norris is having a look at this. He’s just completed the OpenID v3 plugin for WPMU, so it’s a matter of porting it to BuddyPress.
October 6, 2008 at 10:13 pm #33247In reply to: Profiles are seperate from blogs
ParticipantThat is actually what I’d prefer and that’s how MySpace works but users could also request more blogs under this system (just as they do now in BuddyPress) as WPMU allows users to be assigned to multiple blogs, I’d just like their first one to be on their username subdomain instead of an entirely different subdomain.
October 6, 2008 at 7:35 pm #33244In reply to: Who’s Online
ParticipantThere are also user online plugins for bbPress for those who have integrated forums and are looking for other alternatives, though the one I linked above definitely works with MU.
I’m looking forward to the chat plugin duanestorey. I’ve hosted chat rooms before but it’d be nice to have one that ties into the MU/BuddyPress login system.
October 6, 2008 at 7:33 pm #33243In reply to: user album with rating & comments
ParticipantThere is going to be an album plugin, it’s just not finished yet. For more about it check out the about page.
As for what features it will include I don’t know off hand but it wouldn’t be too difficult of a task to add ratings and comments I presume if they weren’t included.

MemberSame idea here https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=25#post-92 , where Andy linked to this topic
.I think we need to discuss more about it.
We can handle such URL like http://domain.com/andypeatling/home or http://domain.com/user/andypeatling simply by customizing the home theme. Instead of using another theme for the home base, let the home theme handle it.
I hope the other components have enough flexibility to be used in such way.
October 6, 2008 at 12:27 am #33236In reply to: Who’s Online
ParticipantAs far as I know this plugin should work with BuddyPress, I know it works with WPMU 2.6.2.
