BuddyPress.org

the two members on my site that created buddypress profiles without me being notified are ndcom.com/members/Garamoff/ and ndcom.com/members/poifyipsyhold/, since these two, I’ve received about 3 other buddypress profiles where I, as the admin, didn’t receive notification.

How is this possible and is there a remedy for it?

Thanks,

you can check the members who made it through and on to the site without me being notified: http://ndcom.com/members/Garamoff/ and http://ndcom.com/members/poifyipsyhold/, since these two, I’ve had about 3 others like them whereby they make a buddypress profile and I don’t get the notification.

Burt,

Thanks for the reply. When myself, friends, or family create a profile to test the site, I always get an email as the administrator.

But over the past few weeks, I’m getting individuals creating buddypress profiles and upone further research into my database, I track their email addresses back to health supplements, pharma drugs, and porn sites. I don’t receive an email notification when these buddypress profiles are made.

Currently my settings are as follows, where the second choice with the “X” is selected.

Disabled

X Enabled. Blogs and user accounts can be created.

Only user account can be created.

Only logged in users can create new blogs.

Wondering how can they create buddypress profiles, without me getting notifications?

Thanks,

Ninh

The plugin works mostly off the post and media library architecture. The database interaction is principally adding entries to wp_postmeta. It saves the post as a slideshow post by a boolean _jqss_is_showing, and, if desired you can add a special slideshow image with a meta field called jqss_image to contain the URL of the image. If you are lazy like me, you can just insert an image in the body of a post, and the plugin will sniff that out (hopefully) and use it as the slideshow image.

It saves widget options in wp_options. Pretty standard stuff I would guess.

My intention was that the widget would appear on the main page of the site, where the admin would select pages from the main blog to feature. I am working on a few CSS themes to make the presentation a little snazzier. A regular blog could use it in any sidebar. I guess that I could hook it into TinyMCE so you could put a slideshow of posts in a post, but that might get ugly if the person accidentally slideshow-selected the post that had the slideshow in it.

I just found what I need: The events-component (https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=1333) should be a good example to start with.

Normally you access your plugins in the members area, like ‘Profile’, ‘Messages’, ‘Settings’, ‘your-custom-component’, e.g. http://domain.tld/members/admin/your-custom-component.

I want to create a component that’s not related to the members area and can be accessed like http://domain.tld/your-custom-component.

Can I do this using the BP plugin system, or do I have to write a WordPress Plugin?

Skeleton theme has now been updated to version 1.2 and is compatible with BuddyPress 1.0.

Forum topics are only created through BuddyPress and not directly in bbPress so they should show up. They show fine in the actual groups but not on sitewide activity. I am going to go check the error logs now.

I figured, that it was bp-invites plugin that triggered update. BuddyPress no core plugins shouldn\’t be updated from admin panel, but FTP. That\’s from my experience.

FTP gets hyperlinked. wondering why…

OK, I found the problem, but I don’t have a solution, if you look at https://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WPMU and this is upgrading for 2.7 to 2.7.1 but the process is the same with 2.6 to 2.7.

You see:

define(‘ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH’, ‘/’);

define(‘COOKIE_DOMAIN’, ”);

define(‘COOKIEPATH’, ”);

define(‘SITECOOKIEPATH’, ”);

If I add that into wp-config.php as instruct, when a user log in and then use the log out link from wp-admin or on the adminbar, they are log out from wp-admin but not really log out from buddypress member or home theme or adminbar at all. Though if you log out from buddypress member or home theme directly, you are log out of everything, but adminbar still is a problem as when you click log out it only refresh.

Hope that clear the fog up. So when I remove those lines above from wp-config.php, everything works just fine.

How to fix?
