Freaking Wildchild-

Well, what is surprising to me is that you were trying to debug this with plugins other than BuddyPress running. qTranslate is a WordPress plugin.

In the fifth post in this thread, Burt advised you to:

Disable all other plugins

I had been under the assumption from that point on –even with your new attempt at a fresh install–that you did not have any other plugins installed and activated other than BuddyPress.

When trying to debug something as complex as WPMU + BuddyPress, you need to remove as many variable from the equation as possible. That means, among other things, deactivating all plugins other than BP.

Anyway, it looks like you have your culprit narrowed down. I’d suggest contacting the qTranslate plugin dev and asking for help.

Kit-

I’m sorry you’re having troubles with your theme folders. To be clear, I want to make sure that you realize that you were not, as you state:

advised to change my “bphome” name to preserve it in case of future BP upgrades.

I assume you’re talking about the discussion we had in this thread you asked:

I assume renaming the theme is simply changing the name of its folder?

I responded:

That is correct. Make a copy of the bpmember theme, rename your copy, make whatever changes you want to it, and you have–in effect–a custom theme! Just make sure you keep your new theme in the /wp-content/bp-themes/ directory.

Also, in this thread where I advised you to:

Follow the same procedure as before. Make a backup of the standard bphome theme, rename it to something new…

This means, rename your backup to something new, not change the name of the original theme folder.

Furthermore, as per a private conversation you initiated with me on May 6 via the members messaging system, I state that:

Make sure that you make a copy of both bphome theme and bpmember theme. Your customizations should be done in copies, not the original. That way, if you have issues with your custom themes (and we all do when working on customization), you can switch back to the standard BP themes to see how things should work.

And, as we were talking about CSS issues in that private message and you stated that you had WordPress theming experience, I assumed you knew that the primary style file in BuddyPress, style.css, would need to reflect your new theme’s name.

If you were confused by my advice, I do apologize. But, if you had done what I advised, you would have made a copy of the original theme and altered the copy. As I stated in my private message response to you, do not alter the original theme files.

Hi all,

I am currently in charge of Vietnamese l10n for WordPress, WordPress MU, WordPress.com, Gravatar, and BuddyPress is also maintained by me.

I started working on BuddyPress since its public beta, and I’ve been waiting for an official i18n repository, in the meantime, I uploaded the l10n files to repository of WordPress.

@Wpviet23: You can maintain your version apart, since I prefer keeping all terms in Automattic products synchronous, if you have feedback, please send me an email. Again thank you for your contribution.

Something more… (sorry, previous post was too old to edit??)

Editing \wp-content\plugins\buddypress\bp-xprofile\bp-xprofile-classes.php to output

<option value="February">Febbraio</option>

gets the date correctly saved into the database. However the month still won’t be selected when re-editing the profile, and month name is still displayed in English in the profile page. I can’t seem to be able to find the right files to edit. Any suggestions?

By the way, here’s how i changed bp-xprofile-classes.php. Edit from line 555 onward

$months = array( __( 'January', 'buddypress' ), __( 'February', 'buddypress' ), __( 'March', 'buddypress' ),

__( 'April', 'buddypress' ), __( 'May', 'buddypress' ), __( 'June', 'buddypress' ),

__( 'July', 'buddypress' ), __( 'August', 'buddypress' ), __( 'September', 'buddypress' ),

__( 'October', 'buddypress' ), __( 'November', 'buddypress' ), __( 'December', 'buddypress' )

);



$html .= '

<select name="field_' . $this->id . '_month" id="field_' . $this->id . '_month">';

$html .= '<option value=""' . attribute_escape( $default_select ) . '>

</option>';



for ( $i = 0; $i < 12; $i++ ) {

if ( $month == $months[$i] ) {

$selected = ' selected = "selected"';

} else {

$selected = '';

}



$html .= '<option value="' . $months[$i] . '"' . $selected . '>' . $months[$i] . '</option>';

I have the same problem as Bento, and I guess this has something to do with localization, considering everything works when I set language back to English in WPMU General Preferences.

So please, could someone look into this and suggest what to do, ’cause I really have no clue.

More info on the erratic behavior (again, if WPMU language is English everything works fine):

WPMU 2.7.1 – Buddypress 1.0 – default bphome & bpmember themes – WP_Lang it_IT

– Dates generally won’t be saved into the DB

– Some random dates, however, are saved, but off by 1 day (as per original message by Bento)

– Manually editing the DB shows the date in the Public Profile page

– When editing the profile after a manual DB edit, a month won’t be selected in the datebox (while day and year are)

– Months names (F) are translated in the datebox, still in English in the Profile Page

– Doesn’t matter what date format you set in WPMU preferences (be it F or m for the month)

(Edit: typos)

doh! i hate that readme.txt, i get lazy now and assume that the plugin activation works for everything. thanks for this guys, mine is working now as well.

/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-signup.php

line # 237, change from the old line to the new line.

old line:

<input id="signupuser" type="radio" name="signup_for" value="user" <?php echo $signup['user'] ?> />

new line:

<input id="signupuser" type="radio" checked name="signup_for" value="user" <?php echo $signup['user'] ?> />

open up style.css, you need to modify the header (i.e. this section)

/*

Hello, Codyb

The SocialNetwork logo is named logo.gif, I think. You can find it in two places:

1. WP-Content > themes > buddypress-home > images and

2. WP-Content > bp-themes > buddypress-member > images.

Replace both with your desired logo and try.

We really need more people to start designing themes!

http://www.Freebpthemes.com has a theme competition running at the moment with some good prizes so hopefully people submit some nice designs!

@ Atul Singhal

duplicate you /register.php in your buddypress-home theme,

(duplicate it to keep it as a backup)

towards the bottom of register.php you’ll see something like “do_bp_core_signup”

you can comment that out and replace it with the Iframe version of the rpx plugin

‘

<iframe src=”https://buzzwe.rpxnow.com/openid/embed?token_url=http%3A%2F%YOUR_SITE.com%2F%3Frpx_response%3D1%26goback%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252FYOUR_SITE.com/WELCOME_LANDING_CUSTOM_PAGE&#8221;

scrolling=”no” frameBorder=”no” style=”width:400px;height:240px;”>

</iframe>

‘

just change YOUR_SITE and WELCOME_LANDING_CUSTOM_PAGE to your own token url

one issue I have with this on my site, is that the RPX plugin doesn’t gather much information… sometimes it will only get the email/username… sometimes the email is a “proxy mail email ” => @yahoo12343-proxymail.com (I haven’t confirmed this with all the 3rd party login providers)

this will effect how the notifications work… so you’ll proly want your landing page to have instructions to update their profile information

that should work

Thanks for the information J J J !
