Hi Burt,
I’ve been using firebug for a while and i’m ok (kinda) with css, firebug seems to represent the css well but not 100% perfectly. The problem seems to be with the li tags on that particular div, anything I do either throws the padding out for the widget header or seems to have no affect at all
Cheers for the tips tho – i’ll give the site-wide.css thing a try shortly and will let u know how I get on with it.
Thanks for taking the time to answer this so thorougly. BTW my daughter is nearly 2 and started talking back to me well before I embarked on this buddypress project lol
Thanks once again,
Phil
Topic: Error After Install
I installed buddypress on a working wordpress mu.
All files are set to 755
However, the only thing that displays on my page now is:
Error 500 – Internal server error
An internal server error has occured!
Please try again later.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I’m wondering if I can import data to profile fields in Buddypress. If yes, how should I design the tables in Excel?
Hi,
I just successfully installed BuddyPress, and I have the whole directory password protected. Members can create their own blogs, though I have not tried any extended features.
I would like to open up my install to my community, however, I want to be very conservative with my use of BuddyPress, because I don’t have the programming skills to support the technology. I’m thrilled I got it running, and I just want my community to be able to use it, I wish to learn how to make regular backups, and I don’t want my community to have functionality that can take the community down.
What can I “allow” my community to do?
It makes sense to me to give sub-blog owners a few templates, or just one. Really, I feel like too many templates will confuse the community, creating a lack of cohesiveness. Maybe I can have a few color schemes of the same template. Can my users upload templates? Should they be able to?
I would like all activity to be presented on the main blog page. Basically, if anyone creates a sub-blog post, I would like that to be presented on the main page. Is that what the “all activity” widget does?
I set things so that “blog owners” or “sub-blog owners” can’t install plugins, and I would like a nice, safe set of plugins and widgets that they can use without causing any damage. What about that WP plugin installer feature? Will someone gain access to it and break things?
Basically, can this forum give me advice as to a “safety-first” configuration of BuddyPress? One where all options given to users are really safe and won’t take the community down?
Also, I will do more reading about this, but an effective backup solution/testing environment creation would also be useful.
Best wishes, and thanks for putting together this incredible software!
Sincerely,
Dainis W. Michel
I’ve been through the problem of having to configure each new blog in wpmu, and I found this plugin to be a bit helpful.
Interesting ideas. I haven’t thought about the possible educational uses BuddyPress may have and now you mention it, sounds good!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts
Some users abuse and every comment they put the site URL, ok I know that I can disable this feature, but is needed. I my opinion the external links need to have rel=\”nofollow\” and target=\”_blank\” atributs.
Do it on your buddypress:
1) Comment # the line to disable autolink filter to search data .
#add_filter( 'bp_the_profile_field_value', 'xprofile_filter_link_profile_data', 2, 2 );2) Find this code on line 55 bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-filters.php (trunk 1280)
$new_values[] = \'<a href="\' . site_url( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) . \'/?s=\' . $value . \'">\' . $value . \'</a>\';3) Replace using this.
$new_values[] = '<a rel="nofollow" href="' . site_url( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) . '/?s=' . $value . '" target="_blank" >' . $value . '</a>';Enjoy it.
Will be great see this contribution in future trunks.

Margin or padding the left edge of the containing div for whatever widget you are interested in is the way to go probably. First install firebug to figure out what to alter and what the current settings are: http://getfirebug.com/
That will tell you what you need to change and even allow you to interactively change css to try before you buy. You need to override the css in your theme\\\’s site-wide.css file. Create one in your theme\\\’s /theme/css directory. Create the \\\’css\\\’ directory if it doesn\\\’t exist.
Example: move the site wide activity widget 3px to the right in the bp home theme if it\\\’s activated in the left-column.
1) Create: /wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/css/site-wide.css
2) Firebug says that the containing div is: \\\’buddypress-activity\\\’ and has the classes: \\\’widget\\\’ and \\\’bp_activity_widget_sitewide_activity\\\’
3) In site-wide.css we override the default setting for class bp_activity_widget_sitewide_activity which is specific to this widget and firebug tells me that nothing is modifying this class yet. So we do:
.bp_activity_widget_sitewide_activity{
margin-left: 3px;
}
I should stick to programming. I really suck at css so that may cause your server to have a meltdown and your children to talk back to you.
