A “mobile” Plugin will be nice: WordPress-App with full access til buddypress and a plugin, som du kan bruk til mobile oppdatering av Blog/Gallery. WordPress has a Mobblog-Function, not WPMU, but i think “mobile devices are the future”.
i’d really really want an update on this one. is there something i can do about this apart from disabling one of the best feature in BP?

To close the loop – I submitted a feature request at https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/341
I have no idea if this will be picked up so if there’s anyone willing and able to develop this in a plugin, it would serve BP well.

gpo1 – you posted that already here: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=319#post-1291
Let’s try to keep threads on topic or things will become unwieldy very quickly.

OK – dug in a bit more so a quick update post to close the loop on this.
1. Changing Group Admins and the ability to add additional Group Admins is covered in this enhancement request:
https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/309
2. Ability for Site Admin to delete messages from Member Wire (similar to the way it works for Groups is requested here:

I am experiencing the same error. I have WordPress MU 2.6.5 installed and the BuddyPress Combo package, downloaded on the 5th of January 2009. There are no custom themes, just the default Wordrpess MU and BuddyPress theme.
What can be the problem?
realfam, bp covers wpmu, bbpress and bp itself. We try to address all three environments simply because we *have to* to get bp running. That thread was a little off topic for the forums. Even though it did relate to wpmu sorta, kinda.
Then again I just get cranky at times.
This thread contains non core mod fixes for the above issues:
https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=814
The BuddyPress Group Forums are currently not displaying properly due to some xmlrpc encoding and decoding weirdness. This is fixes the escape characters being displayed when quotes are entered.
Such as “this is a quote”
and also it’s not normal.
Paragraph and line breaks are being stripped as well.
On the bbPress side the text going to bbPress gets encoded for transport but it isn’t being decoded on that side before it gets stored in the db. Since my skills weren’t up to finding a way to decode them before they got stored, I created this plugin that runs on the bbPress side that decodes them before the post text is displayed.
Hopefully we won’t need these things shortly and we can just trash them.
These two plugins are just temporary workarounds until the powers that be
get time to address these issues.
Below, you’ll find a download link that has a buddypress plugin and a bbpress plugin to fix these two issues. No core file mods needed.

ok, instead of downloading latest.zip from:
buddypress.org/download/
I downloaded the trunk version from:
trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk
I added these and it now works correctly.
I assumed the latest.zip was the latest development version.
Andy,
The download link from subdomains of buddypress.org (ex: codex.buddypress.org) bring you to a 404 page since it’s probably coded in to be “/download” instead of the full url.
@4inflater
apeatling said very clearly, in accordance with what he said to do it, very simple, good luck.
My translator a language package, I e-mail to you, you increased to download the page to be possible?
I would like to evaluate BuddyPress and possibly convert an existing live site over to BuddyPress.
I would like to work on the new BuddyPress version of the site in the background, but I’m not sure what the best way to set up a development environment is. Can I use a subdomain on the existing site? I do have access to the files on the server through ssh/putty and prefer to code directly on the web server. Alternatively, I do have an unused domain that I could develop on, but ideally I’d prefer not to use this. I definitely prefer the development site stay hidden until I’m ready to switch everything over. What typically works best. No need to go into great detail. Just looking for advice. Thanks!
I thought about doing the same thing. I setup 2 instances of bbpress. One for groups and one for ‘the community’. The groups forums were hidden. I didn’t like it too much. I wanted the public groups to be public forums but read only until users joined a group. I also wanted the private and hidden groups to have hidden forums.

Hi guys, i’m working hard on buddypress these days,
here you can see something about planned and released plugin : http://buddypressdev.org/proposal/next-plugin-proposals/
I would like know what plugins do the community need ? I would like know your proposals and request,
discuss here or here
WPMU 2.7 is available at mu.wordpress.org trunk (not offically released yet)
The BuddyPress.org site states that BuddyPress is being developed on the latest Trunk version of WPMU so I assumed that this stuff should show on the settings page.
I know a lot of people here are working off the 2.7 version. (look at testbp.org)
Is anyone showing these options on 2.7?
It can, but the amount of spam accounts will increase dramatically. The reason for sending the account password via e-mail is to prevent spammers from simply entering a known username and password and creating 1000’s of spam blog posts on wordpress mu.
I have a similar situation, where I have a current site with 15k users, username and passwords. What I used is this plugin. It works well on wordpress and buddypress.
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/external-database-authentication/
When a user logins, it checks my “other” database for the username, and validates the password against it. This means they don’t need to do the e-maiil thing, as their e-mail was already validated on the old site. It then creates the user in wordpress and the user doesn’t notice anything.
How you could do this for your friends, just make a table of all the friends, and set the same password for everyone initially, and ask them to change it. I only suggest this for very small beta sites with friends you trust, like less then 10 people.

Hopefully this will make sense
I have 4 directories, which I download the svn update to, and then copy them over to the live site:
/bbpresssvn
/buddypresssvn
/wordpresssvn
/privatedevsvn
By logging into the command line, I can do this
svn up
inside each of those 4 folders and it will update them to the newest trunk release. Then I run this command (or similar for buddypress)
cp -R * ../beta
and copy the files to the dev server. So far this has worked really well.
The private dev svn is where I upload my own plugins and themes I’m doing development on. This method is extremely fast as I never have to ftp any files between the internet, my laptop and back up to the web server. It does require command line access and knowledge of svn.
Hope this helps,
Brad

that worked, once again you are the man. thanks.
I think the thread you closed ended up being related to WP, not specifically BP, but the people on here are more responsive thann the wordpress.org board. It looks like my background is making that line….not sure how to tweak the .css to make it work right.
jvinch – this is the code I use for the Featured Members on the homepage:
<div class="widget">

<?php $users = BP_Core_User::get_random_users( 2, 1 ) ?>
<?php if ( $users['users'] ) { ?>
<ul id="featured-member-list" class="item-list">
<?php foreach( $users['users'] as $user ) : ?>
<li>
<div class="item-title"><strong><?php echo bp_core_get_userlink( $user->user_id ) ?></strong></div>
<div class="item-avatar">
<a href="<?php echo bp_core_get_userlink( $user->user_id, false, true ) ?>"><?php echo bp_core_get_avatar( $user->user_id, 1 ) ?></a>
</div>
<div class="item">
<!-- div class="item-meta"><span class="activity"><?php echo bp_core_get_last_activity( get_usermeta( $user->user_id, 'last_activity' ), __('active %s ago') ) ?></span></div -->
<?php if ( function_exists( 'xprofile_get_random_profile_data' ) ) { ?>
<!-- ?php $random_data = xprofile_get_random_profile_data( $user->user_id, true ); ? -->
<div class="item-title profile-data">
<strong>About Me: </strong><?php echo BP_XProfile_ProfileData::get_value_byid( 2, $user->user_id ); ?>

</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
<?php } else { ?>
<div id="message" class="info">
<p><?php _e( 'There are no members to feature.', 'buddypress' ) ?></p>

<?php } ?>
</div>
I understand completely. What we got here is just the core of a wonderful thing. Some areas of bp are feature rich and some need to be fleshed out. It’s up to us to determine what the features should be based on how we want to use bp. Our problem now is that the docs for the features that do exist are kinda sparse. Like any open source product it’s up to us to create them.
This is really how wpmu, bbpress and buddypress are designed. The architecture is extensible and the extensions and features grow out of need. I’d much prefer this way of doing things than being stuck with something monolithic. Here’s what ya get. Take it or leave it.
What does this have to do with bp? This is a buddypress forum.
