BuddyPress.org

@fatjay What exactly is not “working”? I can see BuddyPress pages rendered in your site. Looks like only minor CSS tweaks required.

Hi all,

Thanks @bphelp for the post, I want to add some news here :p

Buddypress Activity privacy 1.0.3 is out now, i was add some integration to make it work with others plugins like buddypress Follow and Buddypress Activity Plus.

I Hope this integrations, will make happy many users of this two plugins :P.

Good News ! Activity stream privacy Is Now here https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-activity-privacy/

Im working for new feature for next release

– Member can change the privacy for an alredy posted activity
– Add Admin backend config for Privacy levels (Admin can enable/disable privacy levels).

Any suggestions are Welcome!

Regards,

well i use a plugin called Multisite Plugin Manager to control what plugins people can see or not.

posting at the same time 😛 i just double checked we have it set up exactly the way you say it shouldn’t work at gotgame dot com buddypress network activated, bbpress only activated on the root site.

i think what you would want to do is not network activate bbpress, could have sworn you can do that.

eddit: yeah i just double checked we have it set up exactly the way you say it should n’t work at gotgame dot com buddypress network activated, bbpress only activated on the root site.

I actually think this should be a core feature ans simple on/off setting in BP.

however there is a plugin to do that, which i havent tested https://github.com/bphelp/private_community_for_bp

@Baskers Yes, that’s incredible, this has also fixed the same issue I was having. I’d never have thought the directory name would be a factor. Glad you’re all sorted!

@mercime thank you very much for the insight.

Hey Joss!

You might be interested in the Pro-Sites plugin, if you don’t already use that in your network.
Via that plugin, you can set the bbPress plugin to nobody which disables it throughout the network except for you as super admin to activate/deactivate.

I have been having the exact same issue. Clean install of both WordPress 3.5.1 and BuddyPress 1.7. Presuming you have checked the box “anyone can register” in Settings > General it’s a mystery.

I did consider it might be a permalink issue, but have tried all combinations thereof. No joy. You might however want to try this perhaps. Also, it’s worth checking which pages are assigned to your registration and activation in BuddyPress settings.

There are various threads on the same topic in this support forum, everybody experiencing exactly what you have mentioned, but none of them are resolved (so far as I can tell).

Leads me to think that this is a SERIOUS bug in an otherwise fantastic plugin. It’d be nice for some of clarification on this though, even if the answer is ‘it’s a bug’.

Hi Maruti, I wonder if you could possibly help as I am trying to install BuddyPress to Flare Theme also…Would you be able to send me examples of the Template Files.
I am building a new website for a local school (although I’m not a developer)…and would appreciate your support greatly!

I am using catalyst theme and I have added buddypress to it. I have also used BuddyPress Template Pack.

Not to rock the boat, but if you have BuddyPress 1.7+ activated in your site, you shouldn’t need to install/activate that BP Template Pack plugin anymore in most cases.

plugin or any modification that can insert the default user account in the sidebar and removes it from top bar while using my own theme?

I would create a child theme of the Catalyst theme and then copy over your catalyst theme’s sidebar.php into your child theme folder with the relevant login code from the BP Default theme’s sidebar.php. Activate the child theme.

These plugins should help 😉

This one is used for members to choose the group they want on registration.
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-roles-at-registration/

This plugin assigns specific profile groups to the roles you want.
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-xprofiles-acl/

These both work great together, and I am using them on the most recent WordPress and BuddyPress versions.

@mamasaywhat this codex instruction for sitewide and group forums? https://codex.buddypress.org/user/setting-up-a-new-installation/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/

Btw, you mentioned that you’ve been working on the BuddyPress project over and over for around a year, did you by any change install the old BuddyPress group forums then? If so, that’s what is causing the warnings. You’d need to read this https://codex.buddypress.org/user/buddypress-site-administration/migrating-from-old-forums-to-bbpress-2/

As for the BP pages, I see no glaring issue at http://www.mamasaywhat.com/members/coreyp/

@dnbrawler https://codex.buddypress.org/user/setting-up-a-new-installation/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/

@shonesss WP/BP versions?

but the installation wizard does not show up

There is no longer an Installation Wizard since BP 1.7, so no worries.

I thought I’d plough on ahead anyway so I installed Buddypress Template Pack

As of BP 1.7, BuddyPress is compatible with nearly all WordPress themes, which means you do not need to install/activate the BuddyPress Template Pack plugin. https://codex.buddypress.org/bp-17-upgrading-template-packed-themes/

no buddypress navigation shows so its impossible to use.

Go to Appearance > Menus, then add the BuddyPress Pages to your custom menu.

@baskers I got a 404 page when I visited your link. Try renaming the subdirectory folder where you installed your WordPress and BuddyPress from RickyTweetUp to rickytweetup

@munch40 thanks for sharing your solution. Glad you’ve got BuddyPress working in your site 🙂

There is the BuddyPress Followers plugin, but that follows a person/member and not a post. What exactly do you mean by following a post? Perhaps, you’d prefer a “Like” plugin where members can “like” a post or not.
