Which profile do you use for your buddypress site?
a) wp’s default profile
b) buddypress’s xprofile
I’ve tested both. wp’s default profile doesn’t let you create any extra fields than predefined ones. xprofile has flexibilities, but sidebar widget support is missing as well as bp’s avatar is not linked to wp’s avatar system.
What’s your take?
Hmm… I have these same versions and after changing doing the cookie integration and getting everything “set up” I can no longer access the back-end of BBPress. My user is no longer the ‘key master’ or admin for BBPress.
Let me break this down with some more detail, I really want to get this working!
Versions I’m using
- WPMU 2.7.1
- BuddyPress 1.0
- bbpress-1.0-rc-1
Steps
I got WPMU 2.7.1 and BuddyPress 1.0 installed fine so I’ll just skip that part entirely.
- As directed from multiple sources about integrating BBPress, I erased the Authentication Unique Keys from wp-config and then proceeded to log into the WPMU back end where it presented me with newly genereated ones for: ‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘AUTH_KEY’, AUTH_SALT, LOGGED_IN_KEY LOGGED_IN_SALT SECURE_AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_SALT
- I created a folder named ‘forums’ (I realize that this can be named whatever I want) and put all of the files from the BBPress 1.0 RC-1 in there.
- I went through the install steps, filling out the database info but skipping the ‘Integrate with WordPress’ steps in order to do this later in the BBPress admin panel.
- I get that all set up and go to the BBPress admin panel where I fill out the necessary info for integration with WordPress, sharing the same database, filling out the salts which are the same ones I used in wp-config.
- I put define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ‘/domain/forums/’); into my wp-config file as directed by BBPress instructions.
- I also made sure that the AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, and LOGGED_IN_KEY in wp-config.php matched BB_AUTH_KEY, BB_SECURE_AUTH_KEY and BB_LOGGED_IN_KEY in bb-config.php
Now, after doing all that I headed back to the admin panel for BuddyPress and filled out the information for integration with BBPress there. Now, when I go to my BBPress forums page and log in as my admin account on BuddyPress/WPMU I am not the admin on BBPress and thus cannot access the back-end. This isn’t the only problem, although it is the main one. I also cannot get my groups on BuddyPress to generate a forum topic when I try to do so it gives an error and says that it couldn’t.
I am going to attempt again with Trevor’s instructions but there are some fuzzy bits in there so I just want to make sure I’m attempting to do this correctly with the correct versions of WPMU, BuddyPress and BBPress. **Note that I cannot find any of the earlier Alphas on the BBPress site, so if I am using the wrong one…am I S.O.L.?
Topic: bbpress integration
Hi guys,
I am unable to integrate buddypress with bbpress. I have done all the steps that are included in the installation readme, such as doing the integration steps during the creation of wp-config.php file, copying the buddypress-enable to the bbforum bb-plugins as well as the creation of user at both buddypress and bbpress. Group Forums still does not appear. I have also typed in the details in Forum Setup under BuddyPress section. It still doesn’t work. Why?
Hi all,
I would like to run a website with 2 languages (english and german).
Do I need to have 2 BP-installations in order to do so ?
I mean: If the user is switching from english to german, then he should also see the german-language blogs, forum-posts, etc.
Please help.
Thanks,
Erich
Hey there,
i’m wondering if it’s possible to show a certain buddypress group (and its forum) on the frontend of the owners blog.
Let’s say on signup we create a user > this user gets a blog > this blog gets a group with a forum called the same as the blog.
The forum could be accessed via buddypress group and is also directly integrated in the user blog and shows up if one clicks the menu point “forum” on the user blog menu.
So is it possible to intergrate certain buddypress components like the forum on the frontend template of a certain user blog?
@BeLogical – The release date was yesterday. I’m late
Nearly done though.
Hi all, need some help,
I have the following in the bp_core_templatetags.php file:
<form name=”login-form” id=”login-form” action=”<?php echo $bp->root_domain . ‘/wp-login.php’ ?>” method=”post”>
<input type=”text” name=”log” id=”user_login” value=”<?php _e( ‘Username’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>” onfocus=”if (this.value == ‘<?php _e( ‘Username’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>’) {this.value = ”;}” onblur=”if (this.value == ”) {this.value = ‘<?php _e( ‘Username’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>’;}” />
<input type=”password” name=”pwd” id=”user_pass” class=”input” value=”” />
<input type=”checkbox” name=”rememberme” id=”rememberme” value=”forever” title=”<?php _e( ‘Remember Me’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>” />
<input type=”submit” name=”wp-submit” id=”wp-submit” value=”<?php _e( ‘Log In’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>” />
<input type=”button” name=”signup-submit” id=”signup-submit” value=”<?php _e( ‘Join up’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>” onclick=”location.href='<?php echo bp_signup_page() ?>'” />
<input type=”hidden” name=”redirect_to” value=”/members/<?php bp_core_get_username() ?>/profile” />
<input type=”hidden” name=”testcookie” value=”1″ />
This is the code for the form in the sign in bar on the home page. I want to use this to redirect the user to their profile page.
All I need is a small piece of code that takes the username inputted into the ‘username’ box and places into ‘bp_core_get_username()’ above. The reason I know this must work is, if you replace that with the actual username and login with that username, it goes directly to the user profile page.
Can someone please suggest the code needed to input the username?
Thanks very much
