Not specifically… although I have tried using the loader.php to load styles via custom.css over base.css. No effect. I can’t see a reference to bp_styles() in the buddypress templates anywhere… any idea where should I be looking?
Cheers.
update: Scratch that… found it in member theme. But adding that to the home theme has no effect (and it doesn’t appear to be included in the default bp home theme anyway).
Not sure if I’m late to the game on this one, but I followed the instructions in the bp-forums directory (https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk/bp-forums/installation-readme.txt) and the install went easily and quickly using the latest bbPress (checked out via SVN from trunk).
I was prepared for a fight after reading this thread, but was pleasantly surprised that it worked the first time with no problems.
Also, using a custom theme seems to break the ajax calls for the BuddyPress widgets (groups, members etc.)… clicking the links in these widgets takes you to the respective directory pages rather than refreshing the widgets.
here is what I used to limit the group creation to admins only
(can also be changed to allow other user levels if needed)
hope this helps
edit: bp-groups.php around line 205
global $user_ID; if( $user_ID ) :
if( current_user_can('level_10') ) {
bp_core_add_subnav_item( $bp->groups->slug, 'create', __('Create a Group', 'buddypress'), $groups_link, 'groups_screen_create_group', false, bp_is_home() );
}
endif;
I need to add links to a few different places:
– main header
(where it says “buddypress” “my account” notifications” etc)
– sub header
(where it says “home” “blogs” “members” “groups”)
– profile page
(where it says “activity” “profile” “wire” etc)
I’m assuming these are all files that will be located in the various themes folder
(main theme, member theme etc)
if possible, please let me know which files are associated with the above sections
thanks
@James: Thank you for your comment. Did I get it right, that your wikis are only in the backend? We want wikis on the frontend like blogs or groups.
@ostropunkt: PmWiki is really great. We have thought and discussed making group wikis? But our solution was, that wikis and groups are working in the same way.
You have a list of all your wikis on your profil.
You can have public and privat wikis.
And you can invite your friends to your wiki.
From now, thanks to SLAFFIK, and to the GPL power, BPDEV Plugins have now a localization support!
here is the announce : http://bp-dev.org/update/update-bpdev-plugins-can-be-translated/
here is the changeset : http://trac.bp-dev.org/plugins/changeset/66
here is the .pot for rev 61

Bye for now,

You could wait the integration of bp in wp,
or (i think it’s better) you could try copying some tables in your new mu install:
example:
copy wp_users to wp_users
wp_postmeta to wp_1_postmeta
wp_posts to wp_1_posts
etc etc..
that’s a bit difficult to do, maybe others could help you better than me..

It would be great if users could be signed up without verifying their email address. Some users don’t receive the email because buddypress is lacking of a smtp setup.
Sounds great to me. We have an ajax chat system on our board and our users couldn’t live without it. ^^
It’s definetly very social and that’s what’s all about.
Can someone please let me know what function to change if I want to alter the process by which users are verified after creating an account? Instead of sending an email with a verification code to click on I would like to use a different method. Is this a function which is overridden in Buddypress, or is it directly in Mu?
Hi all,
SEO is an important component of any site, to allow google / any search engine to index a page correctly.
The starting point top down is the page titles.
I see BP uses the same page titles for all top level pages.
E.g. http://testbp.org/members is the same as http://testbp.org/
Also the forum for groups potentially could have thousands of pages with the same page title e.g. http://testbp.org/groups/buddypress-testers-614548248/forum/topic/175 is the same as http://testbp.org/groups/buddypress-testers-614548248
The same problem with duplicate page titles also exists on the default BP blog.
E.g. http://testbp.org/news/beta-release-scheduled-for-december-15/
Simply adding the article title would be sufficient.
I posted a msg on a ticket then eventually re-opened it here : http://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/126
Just wondered if these SEO enhancements are on anyone’s radar. I don’t feel particularly comfortable submitting enhancements on someone else’s bug tracker.

Hi This one is mine

i’m sure it depends on the version your using: i was getting mad to solve it in my local installation with no success: i thought it was a fault of my custom theme. Then i’ve tried my custom theme on my second local installation and all worked fine. I don’t remember how to see the current version number of buddypress, if i know how to see it i can tell you what is the working version.
have now reverted back to RC1 and it’s working ok – had some conflict with All in One SEO plugin as well. Will have another go at it with the plugin disabled – still confused about the error message.
You do not have any BuddyPress themes installed.
Please download the Default BuddyPress Theme and install it in /wp-content/buddypress-themes
I overwrote all my bp files with those in the trunk in order to try the bp-fbconnect plugin, but since doing this a lot of the names of my members are missing and when clicking on their avatar i get the message
You do not have any BuddyPress themes installed.
Please download the Default BuddyPress Theme and install it in /wp-content/buddypress-
This is not correct as i have two themes installed and i think all the files are in the right place, but not in the folder wp-content/buddypress-themes as i’m not sure i’ve ever had this, guessing it’s a new feature? Should I roll back to the RC? Has anyone else had this issue?
Also still can’t get the bp-fbconnect button to show. Any help on both would be truely appreciated
You can currently use the bbGroups plugin by BurtAdsit to do this with group forums. He’s paused integration for other Extended Profile fields and non-group forums for now, but that is the closest integration available currently.
Take a look over at http://code.ourcommoninterest.org/
Science Content!
The problem with doing it any other way right now, is that without grabbing and caching forum specific BuddyPress profile info and putting it into a convenient user_meta array, it would require an additional query into the database for each user that you want each piece of info for. So lets say you not only want the avatar, but their fullname, and another piece of profile info that you’ve made up. That’s three queries a person, per post, per page. A page with 10 posts just gave you 30 extra queries. The bbGroups plugin works great to counter act this, but I’ve been the primary beta tester experiencing hiccups and Burt has patiently been trouble shooting with me to figure out why. The past week life has sort-of halted my ability to test, but it is a priority for me to address.
unfortunately this did not work for me, i’d also like to use one wpmu install and run multiple separate domains with buddypress on a subdomain and bbpress, using the inove theme.
see my post on wpmu forum
