do I understand correctly that I do need to have 2 installations of BuddyPress, 2 installations of WPMU and 2 installations of BB-Press in order to run my website in 2 languages ?
Appreciate your advise.
Many thanks,
Erich
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?
I use it as substitute for default BP members widget. Mainly because without any code changes:
1. I can choose avatars size in px
2. Simple link avatars to blogs, their websites, member pages
3. There is possibility to chooce Sorting order (by posts number, registration date, login name, name display, user id…)
4. You can hide users by inserting their id
5. Choose to show users from selected blogs
6. Group by blogs
7. there are more features
I think it’s quite useful for those who don’t have much experience with loop and need simple customization widget.
Thanks bforchhammer to here is Changeset 118704 with possibility link avatars to bp member page.
@BeLogical – The release date was yesterday. I’m late 
Nearly done though.
@Scotm – what’s the URL for your site so I can take a look
It’s tough to read big chunks of code like that above. Use the pastebin http://buddypress.pastebin.com
qTranslate currently has some problems with WPMU and BuddyPress, so unfortunately this isn’t a turn-key solution quite yet. There are a few changes to BP that are patched in the trac, and many changes to qTranslate that need to happen to make this work the way it should.
I think I’m actually not the one one: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/plugin-bbpress-force-login-for-buddypress
Does anyone know why it’s not working?
Thanks!!

@Scotm, Have you got P2 theme as a member theme ,it would look good or home page?
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

Maybe there is an other plugin to do that, but I can’t actually find it ?
Gaetan
Matew, thanks for the info. For what purpose do you use the plugin in buddypress?
@M Sorry, I don;t have this configured, but you’ve pretty much hit on the head what I’ve been trying to do since integrating P2 with Buddypress. The best example I can find of how it might work is by somehow modding the Commentwitter plugin for use in the P2 postform versus its intended use with the WordPress comment form.
This plugin enables an ajax input form to appear below the comment form where users can add their Twitter settings if they wish to cross-post. I’ve tried to mod this for the P2 post form unsuccessfully to date but it might offer some insight.
Looking forward to helping any way I can if only testing.
Thx
Did you reinstall wpmu and buddypress?
Hi there,
I’ve found Author Avatars List plugin. This wigdet has pretty flexible avatar display options. After some modifications Changeset 118704, maded by author bforchhammer, it now works with Buddypress. There is one bug with linking avatars to member profiles, but I believe it will be solved in near future. You can download it through SVN.
@M , you are good…. Can you create a page for followers avatar with tweets updates etc?
Yes, Jeff. I checked. It is just that I am getting errors clicking on members, profile etc. I can’t use the BuddyPress Features at all.

You can add new profile fields in the bp menue in your WPMU admin area.
Open there the Buddypress menue and click “Profilefelder” (I guess you are German)
A http://-entry will be displayed automatically as a Link.

hmmm… any ideas?
What tables there should be in the database when using buddypress+wpmu+bbpress?
I noticed that i don’t have any table for bp-forums. It was mentioned in some topic here to check out the bp_forums table (not the same problem as mine though) and I just checked tables and noticed that one is actually missing.
How that can be? I have not deleted it. And forums worked fine some time ago, but now they don’t. Before this problem I was able to create new groups in BP and they was created to bbforums as well. Now I can create new groups too, but bbpress doesn’t find them. I can post a new topic and reply posts in bbpress, but not in BP forums.
If I try to post a new topic or reply I get a red error message: “There was an error posting that topic.”
This is how I made them play nice together also. As a matter of fact, I commented out that filter entirely with no adverse effects, and instead hooked a few other of the BuddyPress URL making functions.
I’ll be working more on this tomorrow so I’ll post some details in this same post at that point.
