BuddyPress.org

basically you need to get the Last Activity field set for this users manually.

same problem !

Hi @thetwister

When in the Menu Administration screen, can you click on the tab screen options at the top. You should see some checkboxes. Check if the one for BuddyPress is activated. If not, clicking on it should display the BuddyPress menu section.

@robertnorcross Just to let you know I am just learning to figure so of these out. So this is what I think I understand it works:

multisite install by default allows users to login with same info.

you may also want to post over on wordpress support forum for multisite.

I was reading so article & now don’t remember that subscriber on multisite don’t automatically become members which confuse me know.

I am pretty sure there is probably login redirect plugin but haven’t used any to recommend.

I am also unfamiliar with commerce sites but do you want to redirect someone before they complete their purchase to buddypress.

I think multisite forum may be could more helpful and to be honest I thinking of just going back to single installs & migrate later. I have multiple sites like you too with various focused it has been challenge wrapping my head around it all.

Having exactly the same issue. Any ideas?

Running WP 3.9.1 and BuddyPress 2.0.1

This plugin, though not updated for a very LONG time, still works.

Might be a LITTLE help in the ongoing battle against spam!

Security question/answer can produce a text-string, not just a sum, answer.

I’m the developer of BuddyPress Security Check. Unfortunately, it appears that spammers have found a way to complete the math sum, allowing them to register. This means that BuddyPress Security Check will probably not prevent bots from registering. It certainly isn’t generating fake signups though. Probably best to disable BuddyPress Security Check until I figure out how I can fix it and release a new update.

Thanks for the ping @johnjamesjaccoby

@jacqueschoquette Buddypress does not utilize it own forums but uses bbpress.org for them.

The bbpress.org support would be the best resource to help you on the display order of your forum topics. You can find more info here: https://bbpress.org/forums/

Yes, the above is a rather awkward solution.

Just occurred to me that you could extract the info you need from the $settings_link arg passed by the $email_content filter hook to further query the database and/or rebuild $email_content – and so avoid filtering wp_mail

I think it would be a reasonable request that the
$email_content filter hook in messages_notification_new_message include $ud.

It’s a simple change, so please submit an enhancement ticket:

[ We may find out that there is an existing and simple solution ! ]

i think its more due to the fact that nobody is talking about ning anymore their system isn’t very open technically speaking. for instance when i do a google search for ‘social network in a box’ or ‘social network software’ there are many references to buddypress in the results but none for ning. i know when i was looking at ning in 2010 coincidentally enough i decided their lack of customer service and locked in system weren’t a good way to go for our network. in fact ning isn’t even listed in the wikipedia list of social networking software options:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_social_networking_software

although maybe because it’s a platform and not really software you can install.

one more thing i would add is that a lot of the really popular dedicated buddypress plugins are now wordpress plugins as well so they may not really show up as buddypress only plugins anymore.

Hi theaquaponicsource

There’s quite a lot of development activity going on right now with BP “under the hood” so to speak. Have a read of this blog post which announces the recent release of BP 2.0:

BuddyPress 2.0 “Juliana”

And keep in mind many of the WP plugins in the WordPress plugin repo work solidly on BP, you don’t necessarily need to use ‘BP plugins’ only:

Hey Ben

Auto embeds are a WordPress feature: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/embeds/

You can disable them site-wide with a filter: http://wpengineer.com/2487/disable-oembed-wordpress/

Good luck!

The easiest way I can think of is to copy the needed files over from the BuddyPress plugin (members/single/something.php), and place them into your theme, removing its contents or placing a redirect into the files.

Sounds like the murderer is in the house. Don’t go upstairs. 🙂

You could optionally just block sign-ups from your own IP. If you’re running a multisite installation, there’s a convenient UI for this. We’ve yet to incorporate that into single-site BuddyPress yet, but we have considered it.

Worth pinging @messenlehner or @tw2113 about the registration options plugin, and @bungeshea about the security check plugin too.

change whatever you want in the arguments

function filter_send_message_btn() {

		$args = array(
			'id'                => 'private_message',
			'component'         => 'messages',
			'must_be_logged_in' => true,
			'block_self'        => true,
			'wrapper_id'        => 'send-private-message',
			'link_href'         => bp_get_send_private_message_link(),
			'link_title'        => __( 'Send a private message to this user.', 'buddypress' ),
			'link_text'         => __( 'Private Message', 'buddypress' ),
			'link_class'        => 'send-message',
		);

		return $args;

}
add_filter('bp_get_send_message_button_args', 'filter_send_message_btn');

Bump.

I have a similar problem with another theme developed by the same company (Langwitch). Their support is entirely unhelpful and I haven’t found any other solutions for the issue. Basically, their theme bypasses/replaces the page template system with their own page builder so the BuddyPress templates aren’t even loaded for the page specified in the BuddyPress settings.

I am a developer and am willing to work on a solution, but if anyone could give some tips to make this move a bit quicker, that’d be great.

@aronprins
The bp-default theme that ships with BP is being retired so in the future there will not be a theme that ships with BP in favor of theme compatibility. If I was in your position I would just focus on making a really good WordPress theme with standard template structures and it should work with BuddyPress. The bonus is if the theme is good and works with just WP then you’ve not pigeon holed your profit to just BP users.
