BuddyPress.org

OK… So what does that mean practically?

Haha! Well, good question.

WPMU is not designed as a user-centric platform. It is blog-centric. BuddyPress puts the focus on the user.

So, my best advice is that you will have to do as Mike Pratt suggests and then code a custom function to extract the new firstname and lastname data from an xprofile table as you see fit, or just output that data in your theme files.

As far as registration, have you looked at Mike’s site (http://buglenotes.com/register) to see what he does? If that is what you want, you should PM him and get more advice.

I haven’t been able to get anything but bbpress alpha 6 to work with group forums. Perhaps others have a different result. I’m running on MT dv also. I banged my head against it for some time and realized finally that it was an issue with my hosts file. See: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=426

@Sandeep

The widget just pulls all activity data from the wp_bp_activity_sitewide table. So, you have three options:

1. Write a custom widget based on the widget code in bp-activity-widgets.php that does a check for $item[‘component_action’] == new_wire_post and filter that out from the output.
2. If you don’t want users to have the ability to make wire posts at all, then you can disable that component in WPMU’s backed by logging in as site admin and going to

   BuddyPress > Component Setup > Comment Wire

   and then selecting the “Disabled” radio button. Don’t forget to then hit the “Save Settings” button at the bottom.

3. Submit an enhancement ticket in trac requesting more fine-grained control over the output of the site wide activity widget.

There is something like this planned. See this: https://buddypress.org/about/roadmap/

I deactivated every plugin and turned them back on one at a time – still no good.

You said this two posts ago and it made me wonder. When you had all plugins, except BuddyPress, deactivated, did the widget work?

Also, are you running WPMU 2.7.1 or the bleeding edge 2.8 trunk?

Thanks for the tip ray,

Do any special steps have to be taken with WP-Cache to use it with Buddypress so that we can make sure it dosent conflict with any component? Any known issues with the common buddypress plugins?

Not unless you want to code it yourself. Suggest you make an enhancement ticket on https://trac.buddypress.org/.

Using the default buddypress theme with minor changes…

Launched it just a week ago and already got 2 position in google…

Hi, I had the same thing. I had it working on 1 site but not on another. Turns out I forgot to enable the buddypress plugin in the BBPress admin area.

hth.

Hey Allen,

The CSS for the admin bar is located here:

/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/css/admin-bar.css

Look for these lines:

#wp-admin-bar li * {

font: 12px normal "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif !important;

font-weight: normal !important;

background-image: none !important;

}



#wp-admin-bar li a {

padding: 5px 25px 7px 15px !important;

font: 12px normal "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif !important;

font-weight: normal !important;

}

#wp-admin-bar ul li a {

display: block !important;

font-size: 12px !important;

font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Sans", Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif !important;

text-decoration: none !important;

color: #fff !important;

}

notme31, step 1. Make absolutely sure that you’re using the same name & pw on the BP forums setup as you used for your keymaster on bbPress.

You can try my integration tutorial at The Easy Button. Read through it and see if there’s a step that you’ve missed. Or just start from the beginning. You can contact me directly if you still can’t get it worked out. Maybe we can get it working together. Good luck

You’ll need to contact 1and1 and have them help you out. I assume, then, that you are on a shared server?
