BuddyPress.org

That would be great as I have already had a member say that the site is too slow! His comment was that it wasn’t as fast as imeem or myspace. I checked myspaces download compared to my site–it’s pretty unbelievable.

BuddyPress is a beautifully thought out architecture, however it must be a strain on the relatively few men working on it. Day by day it gets better and better though, which is cool.

The nice thing about buddypress as opposed to myspace, facebook and imeem is that you cannot beat a community that cares! And with all the care that goes into this project, one day it will surpass all the others…

BP is just beginning to roll. You might want to talk to danielfelice at:

So It finish by working very well . In fact there is a problem where your WordPress MU/Buddypress is in a sub folder of your httpdoc. I think googlemap plugin don’t find the path for some javascript. When I put the cms on a direct folder all is working fine. Thanks bergsten for this amazing module .

If you are seeing “Call to undefined function bp_search_form_action()” then you are mixing trunk files up with beta 1 files.

You cannot use the beta 1 themes with the trunk plugins. If you’re going to update your BuddyPress installation with the trunk, you need to make sure the themes are the trunk versions too.

There are still last minute changes going into the themes until 1.0 final.

Coincidentally, I just submitted a possible fix. Worth a shot. The sitewide tags plugin is working on my local install.

Yes we do have a place for docs. https://codex.buddypress.org/ Anyone can contribute. Thank you for asking . Products like bp and mu are built by programmers. Documentation gives programmers hives.

If you take a look at Trac you’ll see that this issue is represented as tickets:

https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/336

https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/175

You’ll also notice lots of bp related tickets that stem from the alpha and recent beta release. If I were lead developer on an open source community project such as this, I’d pay attention first to the tickets that related to getting bp to beta 2.

I’ve decided that this issue is *our* problem. *We* need to fix it. I’ve got some time to give to it and that’s what I’m gonna do today. Anybody else willing to help work on this community problem?

A “mobile” Plugin will be nice: WordPress-App with full access til buddypress and a plugin, som du kan bruk til mobile oppdatering av Blog/Gallery. WordPress has a Mobblog-Function, not WPMU, but i think “mobile devices are the future”.

i’d really really want an update on this one. is there something i can do about this apart from disabling one of the best feature in BP?

I am experiencing the same error. I have WordPress MU 2.6.5 installed and the BuddyPress Combo package, downloaded on the 5th of January 2009. There are no custom themes, just the default Wordrpess MU and BuddyPress theme.

What can be the problem?

realfam, bp covers wpmu, bbpress and bp itself. We try to address all three environments simply because we *have to* to get bp running. That thread was a little off topic for the forums. Even though it did relate to wpmu sorta, kinda.

Then again I just get cranky at times.

This thread contains non core mod fixes for the above issues:

@4inflater

apeatling said very clearly, in accordance with what he said to do it, very simple, good luck.

My translator a language package, I e-mail to you, you increased to download the page to be possible?

I thought about doing the same thing. I setup 2 instances of bbpress. One for groups and one for ‘the community’. The groups forums were hidden. I didn’t like it too much. I wanted the public groups to be public forums but read only until users joined a group. I also wanted the private and hidden groups to have hidden forums.

See this thread: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=696

David, have you seen this?: http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/01/09/tweetbacks-plugin-for-wordpress/

and this: http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/01/08/twitter-avatars-in-comments-wordpress-plugin/

It can, but the amount of spam accounts will increase dramatically. The reason for sending the account password via e-mail is to prevent spammers from simply entering a known username and password and creating 1000’s of spam blog posts on wordpress mu.

I have a similar situation, where I have a current site with 15k users, username and passwords. What I used is this plugin. It works well on wordpress and buddypress.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/external-database-authentication/

When a user logins, it checks my “other” database for the username, and validates the password against it. This means they don’t need to do the e-maiil thing, as their e-mail was already validated on the old site. It then creates the user in wordpress and the user doesn’t notice anything.

How you could do this for your friends, just make a table of all the friends, and set the same password for everyone initially, and ask them to change it. I only suggest this for very small beta sites with friends you trust, like less then 10 people.

Hopefully this will make sense

I have 4 directories, which I download the svn update to, and then copy them over to the live site:

/bbpresssvn

/buddypresssvn

/wordpresssvn

/privatedevsvn

By logging into the command line, I can do this

svn up

inside each of those 4 folders and it will update them to the newest trunk release. Then I run this command (or similar for buddypress)

cp -R * ../beta

and copy the files to the dev server. So far this has worked really well.

The private dev svn is where I upload my own plugins and themes I’m doing development on. This method is extremely fast as I never have to ftp any files between the internet, my laptop and back up to the web server. It does require command line access and knowledge of svn.

Hope this helps,

Brad
