ie do i need to disable the buddypress plugins

upgrade wpmu to 2.7

Hi. I had the same problem with buddypress, and i had to to what jfcarter suggested: duplicating the buddypress-member directory and naming it buddypress-home. But I think must be a better solution. Anyone knows which version of buddypress doesn´t have that problem?

Hi, do you know if there is a documentation about template tags that can be used for buddypress themes?

hi,

most likely you have to customize yourself. i dont know a address for premium themes, in my opinion there is non. but you might look here: freebuddypressthemes.com, where daniel felice is trying to build up a place for sharing buddypressthemes.

Wow.. the Site Wide Plugin looks fantastic.. This makes for loads of possibilities.. like a standard wpmu album plugin. of course only after integrating the code to display it in the members directory. ..

I would really like to see the blogging functionality get added to the buddypres administration pages rather than the standard wp admin back-end. Any hopes of this being done?

Well, while the GF is in the shower, I’ll quick do this… Burt this is aimed directly at you, since I gather most others won’t want to do this kind of thing…

oci_bb_group_forums.php:

This prevents wrong inclusion order when using deep forum integration.

if (defined(BACKPRESS_PATH))

require_once( BACKPRESS_PATH . '/class.ixr.php' );

This will return ALL user info, in the event that bbGroups does not exist yet for that user.

function oci_get_userdata($u){

$u = (int) $u;

$user = bb_get_user($u);

if ($user->bbGroups) {

return stripslashes_deep((array)$user->bbGroups);

} else {

return stripslashes_deep((array)$user);

}

}

oci_bp_group_forums.php:

This prevents wrong inclusion order when using deep forum integration.

if (!defined(BBDB_NAME))

require_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . '/class-IXR.php');

This is how I passed the user info over from xprofile to bbGroups:

/**

* oci_get_user_filter()

*

* Live example of how to use the filter mechanism to add info to the data going across to bbpress

* This filter adds the user's forums and forums where the user is staff into the $user array

* @return

* @param associative array $user from oci_get_user()

*/

function oci_get_user_filter($user){

$users_group_info = oci_get_users_group_info($user['id']);



$user['users_forums'] = $users_group_info['forum_ids'];

$user['user_is_staff'] = $users_group_info['staff_ids'];



$user['custom_title'] = bp_get_field_data('Custom Title', $user['id']);

$user['signature'] = bp_get_field_data('Signature', $user['id']);

$user['aim'] = bp_get_field_data('AIM', $user['id']);

$user['yahoo'] = bp_get_field_data('Yahoo!', $user['id']);

$user['gtalk'] = bp_get_field_data('GTalk', $user['id']);

$user['msn'] = bp_get_field_data('MSN', $user['id']);

$user['jabber'] = bp_get_field_data('Jabber', $user['id']);

$user['icq'] = bp_get_field_data('ICQ', $user['id']);



return $user;

}

add_filter('oci_get_user','oci_get_user_filter',10,1);

oci_bb_custom.php

How I transfer the username (just in case fullname hasn’t been edited from wordpress.org transfer – see above oci_get_userdata changes):

function oci_user_name($u){

$bp_user = oci_get_userdata($u);

if ($bp_user['fullname']) {

return $bp_user['fullname'];

} else {

return $bp_user['display_name'];

}

}

bbpress/active-theme/functions.php

What I added to make the custom functions go:

add_filter('get_user_profile_link', 'bppro_user_profile_link', 10, 2);

function bppro_user_profile_link($link, $uid) {

$user = bb_get_user($uid);

return(bb_get_option('wp_siteurl').'/members/' . $user->user_login);

}



function bppro_user_url() {

global $bp;

return($bp->loggedin_user->domain);

}



function bp_check_title($user) {

$user_id = get_post_author_id();

$user = bb_get_user($user_id);

$user_title = $user->bbGroups['custom_title'];



if ($user_title) {

return $user->bbGroups['custom_title'];

} else {

return;

}

}

add_filter('post_author_title', 'bp_check_title');

add_filter('post_author_title_link', 'bp_check_title');



function post_author_signature() {

$user_id = get_post_author_id();

$user = bb_get_user($user_id);

$user_signature = $user->bbGroups['signature'];



if ($user_signature) {

echo '<p class="post-signature">__________<br />' . $user->bbGroups['signature'] . '</p>';

}

}

bbpress/active-theme/post.php

Displays avatar from BuddyPress if it exists, else bbPress/Gravatar. Also displays hooked data from above functions.php:

<div class="threadauthor">

<dl>

<dt><a class="oci-link" href="<?php echo oci_user_link($bb_post->poster_id); ?>"><?php echo oci_user_name($bb_post->poster_id); ?></a></dt>

<dd><span class="oci-title"><?php $patl = post_author_title_link(); ?></span></dd>

<dd><?php if (oci_user_avatar($bb_post->poster_id)) { echo oci_user_avatar($bb_post->poster_id); } else { post_author_avatar_link(); }?></dd>

</dl>

</div>

<div class="threadpost">

<div class="poststuff">

<?php printf( __('Posted %s ago'), bb_get_post_time() ); ?> <a href="<?php post_anchor_link(); ?>">#</a> <?php bb_post_admin(); ?><?php bb_quote_link(); ?>

</div>

<div class="post">

<?php post_text(); ?>

</div>

<?php post_author_signature(); ?>

</div>

My site is at http://housenysian.com but as it was built mostly to host our main project, which is the blog at http://housenysian.com/ummo/

still soooo much customizing to do, but it is fairly well modified just to be a development placeholder (which it is). please feel free to muck around, create blogs, whatever.

Can’t believe I didn’t catch those. Good finds!

Well that’s interesting, and pretty much perfect for both platforms actually.

Makes me wish I was more involved in WordPress from the get go, sometimes I get a little lost in the code still to be able to put something that cool together.

Good job Andy. :thumbup:

@joalbright could you login to https://trac.buddypress.org/ and add this as a ticket using the login from this forum?

Trent

In terms of the navigation? You would have to edit the header.php of both the buddypress-home theme and the buddypress member theme to change the order as I don’t think the filter works for position for a plugin.

Trent

Best bet if you find a bug or an enhancement would be to post it on http://trac.buddypress.org with your login from these forums. It might not be known yet and the reporting might help get it fixed.

ArtistBlog.ME, ready to promote and aid the (upcoming) artist on the block, running Buddypress as social network component at http://www.artistblog.me ; which will be complemented with the ArtistPlug.ME component, soon.

Enjoy! There are only limited spots available on this blog; only for and by artists wanting to defend their Creativity with their Common Rights…

@conceptfusion if the following gets implemented, it won’t slow down development for either WP or WPMU.

Don’t see it, I’m adding it in there now. Darn.

I was so sure I had your issue nailed to. My apologies. I ran into the exact same problem myself a few weeks back so I was pretty sure I had it fixed. It was about that same time I noticed the permalink issue also, so they worked hand-in-hand against me. Ha!

Not wishing to be a party pooper but my vote DEFINATLY goes for getting the feature-set for BuddyPress MU complete before even looking to release for Single Instance WP… and that includes the yet to be implemented BuddyPress Photo Album component.

Jed, migrating from WP.org to WPMU is not a super simple task unfortunately. It is possible, but you are still diving into phpMyAdmin more than likely.

My advise for a migration is to do it at a time when your user base is low and the database is small so that you can manipulate the data easier.

If you don’t want the blog functionality but *might* want it later, you can still install WPMU and just disclude the BuddyPress Blogs plugin.

Perfect, I hope it wont be too long because I prefer to have a social network without a blog/site as long we could migrate into WPMU later on.
