BuddyPress.org

Agree with Dudboi – POT file is needed.

I’m in a process of translating into Russian.

I can confirm the same as gogoplata… with one diff: I have buddypress home theme not on my main blog. I’ve changed in the code the ID of the blog in some php files and voilà.

Are all of you running the theme on blog with ID=1?

What about igchosting.in, does it work well with BP?

OK, I have submitted a better patch to allow complete customisation of the admin bar using add_action() WordPress hooks.

It also has log in and register and is available from https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/174

Please Note, this patch will possibly not work if used on top of the previous patch, so make sure you have the original core files installed first.

Are you using the latest files from the trunk?:

https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk

Any modifications?

It’s basically as simple as copying the code and CSS from the buddypress-home file into your theme and tweaking it to match your site.

The trunk version is available here:

https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk

At the bottom of that page is a link to download all the files in .zip format. Give that a try on your site and you should have better luck with getting it to work.

Is there something specific you’re looking for. Most WordPress plugins and WPMU plugins will work alongside BuddyPress. Right now the focus is on getting all the basic features stable for a formal release in the next month or so, but additional plugins will definitely be developed for this system.

Please use the trunk version of BuddyPress.

Great! Thanks for the help. In the end I just uploaded a nontranslated english MO file to the languages folder. Though it doesn’t really make sense for me to update both the WP MU and BuddyPress languages together.

I mean I suppose it’s useful for people who actually want to do translations, but shouldn’t there be a separate function for buddypress altogether (that perhaps is linked to WP MU?)

just simple couple of questions… i have a shared host really cheap one with lunar pages…

I installed wpmu and realised that the subdomain function would work as i didn’t have access the Apache server and this means i cant ad the wildcard dns thingy.. so subdomains we out…

so i reinstaled using the sub directory… this worked fine..

i then tried to instal budypress with teh zip files.. as said in the readme…

with the blogs one it just gave a a parse syntax php ( or one of those php eror lines on a white page just saying something was wring on a line around 300 i forget exactely..) error that would not let me do

anything… so i deleted the blogs one and then it worked and i could ad a profile on the admin contol pannel but not on the splash page from register.. it first asked to creat a new blog then the profile so that didnt seem right..

questions.. does budy press work on sub directories and why was the blogs plugin not working..

i am trying to create a social site for spots or locations in kenya…

cheers..

I have submitted a patch:

https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/174

adds Log In and Sign Up (only if enabled registrations)

*adds* …there is also some info there for creating your own custom admin bar.

I want the login/sign-up taskbar like in the bp demo site, in my custome theme.

How is it done?

Step 1: Upload a MU language file to active the language select menu in “Site Admin” – “Options” page. This will make you can select sitewide default language.

Step 2: Upload a BP language file. And its language will been changed with MU at same time.

For example: I uploaded a file named “zh_CN.mo” for MU in “wp-content/languages/”. And now, In “Site Admin” – “Options” it will display a languages select menu. And in “Setting” – “General” will too. Now,I can change sitewide language or my own site language.

At this time, if I want to change BP’s language, I just need to upload a file “buddypress-zh_CN.mo” file in “wp-content/mu-plugins/bp-languages”.

You can test on my site, And I already translated BP and MU to chinese.

Hi thezohan10,

Thanks for your reply.

You solution is interresting. Did you modify the plugin or did you create your own ?

In any case, can you share your code ?

Thanks!

Sorry to sleepy, the post above was for this topic:

Hi to all, i will tell you my little experience with the subject.

First of all: How does the global tags blog work? Simple, when someone makes a post, WPMU triggers an event. Basically there is a plugin that is hooked to that event, and when the post is made, it copies the post to a TAG blog (typically “invisible” and with a modified template, i will try not to extend here). But it dupplicates the post in the tag blog, and when you wanna show a cool plugin with al the site tags, you add the standard WP tag function instantiating that blog.

THE PROBLEM WITH BUDDYPRESS:

Inspite that in the PHP code of buddypress tries to evaluate, reading the options of WPMU if the POST comes from the TAG BLOG, it fails, cause there is an environment problem there. $BP and $WP* does not bring the correct actual blog id from the Blog where the post was made (Tag blog) so it thinks it´s a new entry, so boom, it keeps on publishing, POST – HOOK – POST – HOOK etc… until the buffer makes a little BOOM!. And it stops.

What i did (i figured this problem the first time i installed buddypress) and maybe it´s not the best answer to your problem, is to use my own post indexer (i was using that plugin before for other reasons) so i took the HOOK of SAVED or PUBLISH i don´t remember and i am triggering the BP post record function directly from my plugin.

But the important thing is that, the BP code is perfect at that point, it tries to evaluate if the blog is the TAGS BLOG, but there´s a problem with the environment $BP or $WP**** at that point, so the BLOG_ID is messed.

Hope it helps Andy.

Oops, that’s what I meant. Mistyped sorry.

Still nada: http://donicethings.org/beta/wp-content/mu-plugins/bp-languages/buddypress-en_US.mo

At http://donicethings.org/beta, groups is supposed to translated to “projects”.

The basics of what I did was edit bp-xprofile.php and removed these lines:

$sql[] = “INSERT INTO “. $bp . ” (

id, group_id, parent_id, type, name, description, is_required, field_order, option_order, order_by, is_public, can_delete

) VALUES (

1, 1, 0, ‘textbox’, ‘” . __( ‘Public Display Name’, ‘buddypress’) . “‘, ”, 1, 1, 0, ”, 1, 0

);”;

$sql[] = “INSERT INTO “. $bp . ” (

id, group_id, parent_id, type, name, description, is_required, field_order, option_order, order_by, is_public, can_delete

) VALUES (

2, 1, 0, ‘textbox’, ‘” . __( ‘Last Name’, ‘buddypress’) . “‘, ”, 1, 2, 0, ”, 1, 0

);”;

Then I went into my database and deleted those fields. Once those are gone BP defaults to using the username.

I think this may have been fixed today??

Added missing switch_to_blog() call which was causing issues with using the recent blog posts widget.

Glad to hear you resolved everything. I too had no problem adding the BuddyPress features to another theme.

You may need to install WPMU and BuddyPress in the root, not in a directory.
