Hey there,
I have read lots about the problems if german translation and po-file with buddypress. Unfortunately nothing helped me to solve my problem.
Everything would be translated but not the navigation elements on profile pages like “Activity”, “Notifications”, “Messages” and some more.
In php-file buddypress/bp-notifications/bp-notifications-loader.php I found this line here:
$nav_name = sprintf( _x( 'Notifications <span class="%s">%s</span>', 'Profile screen nav', 'buddypress' ), esc_attr( $class ), number_format_i18n( $count ) );
In .po-file I found:
Source: Notifications <span class=\”count\”>%s</span>
Translation: Benachrichtigungen <span class=\”count\”>%s</span>
I’m stumped and hope you can help me!
I am guessing it would easy to add a function to one of the like / voter plugins mentioned above ( https://buddypress.org/support/topic/how-to-like/#post-231535 ) – that would also write something to the BP activity table – which would then show likes or votes on posts and such on the activity stream – if those like / vote buttons also work on media that is uploaded through rTmedia (or the new (beta) mediapress plugin) then that would be pulled into the activity feed.
The tricky part beyond that is that buddypress does not have an integrated media thing – so there would need to be some kind of bridge between rtmedia, or mediapress or whatever was handling the media to display “likes” somewhere on the profiles.
Maybe this is something the rtcamp or mediapress plugin guy can add that functionality or someone can create some kind of bridge / api thing to let the three seperate pieces all talk to each other – then you would need code in your theme to grab that database table and display numbers next to whatever…
I think rtmedia’s plugin displays a number next to the media tab in my bp-social theme (for number of pics / videos someone has uploaded) – I wonder where this “# of likes” is to be displayed? Just a total number of likes in the main profile fields area – or number of likes broken down by media uploaded, blog posts liked, activity updates liked, etc.
I like you thoughts on this @disha76 – I’d like to see this work – it sucks that BP does not have integrated media handling – it’s a major issue I have posted about in the past – brings us to this “4 separate things need to talk to each other” in order to get basic functions working / displayed.
it would be awesome if the mediapress guy would offer to give that code to core BP – but then again, it appears there is not much work going into updating / maintaining BP these days – so getting things updated seems to depend more on third parties doing code for side projects money from what I can tell. Which of course means paying for custom stuff today – a future WP or BP update could cause the voting / like plugin to break and need to be recoded (by a dev that may not be responsive) and the media plugins could break.. and your theme may not display correctly – so you may have to try to pay all those people to make updates to keep those functions working in the future – if you can get those people to come back to projects.
So – I hope it happens, but like many things buddypress – I would not hold my breath that something that can be modded to work today will not break in the future without a fix – I’ve had to let a previous buddypress like system go, and a few other plugins from around 1.5 that were nice.
Running WordPress 4.1, Buddypress 2.1.1.
The @ auto-complete (used for mentioning someone) does not work on the site in all areas except the site-wide activity.
How can I enable @ auto-complete throughout the site?
hey,
basically the registration to my bbpress sitewide forum with buddypress doesn’t work. Once I click register it takes me to the right page. I put in a user name, email, and click ”register”. But the site loads new and fields are empty then.
Setting up a new user does work on my own computer after logout from my admin-account (sarah.shima). If I change browser and delete cookies, the registration is not working.
Registration process on bbpress with buddypress deactivated is working.
Website ist: http://www.curly.horse/foren/
Can anyone help me??
Just a note: in BuddyPress bp_core_signup_send_validation_email function wp_mail is called only with the required parameters wp_mail( $to, $subject, $message ), but the function could accept also two optional parameters wp_mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers, $attachments ).
So if you want to edit also the headers and/or attachments you have to edit the BP core file adding the parameters and the corresponding filters.
Hi everyone,
I have a little problem with the buddypress Group – function.
I need two different group types. A user can join or create only one group of each type. That means, if he creates one he could not join or create another group of the same type, and if he join one team he can not create or join another team of the same type.
At the “create Group” – dialog a user have to choose the type. if he already is a member of this type, the creating process should be abborted.
Is there an easy solution for my problem ?
King regards
Edit: If a user is a member or admin of type A he can not accept any other invitations for this types.

Even though Jetpack and BuddyPress and both projects under the WordPress ‘umbrella’, they are separate plugins and haven’t been designed to work in that way. That said, both should always be compatible. For example, if you find something stops working as a result of the plugins being installed together and conflicting then you could file a bug report.
I have noticed in the apache error log that we are getting multiple errors as follows:
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_get_groups_current_create_step() in /var/www/community/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-template.php on line 2328
This may be related to a huge amount of registration spam that we are getting despite captchas etc. which leads me to suspect that it is being done through the back door.
I have temporarily commented out that line but that clearly isn’t a long term solution.
The site is up-to-date in that it is running WordPress 4.1 and Buddypress 2.1.1. All other plugins are also up-to-date. Site is http://bn.myfamilyclub.co.uk/
Any suggestions?
Hello community.
I am new using buddypress. I found a website that integro WooCommerce with buddypress and is just what I want.
The profiles have also integrated cover and other details.
For now what interests me is to apply the option that each user can add your own cover.
http://s28.postimg.org/sz3390cel/dsd.png
From already thank you very much. If they can teach me how to add other details on the cover would help much.
As far as I know, Jetpack Likes apply to blog posts only and are completely unrelated to BuddyPress favorites. If you ‘like’ something via Jetpack, then that’s separate to any ‘favoriting’ that you do via BuddyPress.
@henrywright – that is the entire problem. End users want to like/fav/star an item from the stream or in the content itself. They are accustomed in this way. If BP has its own favoriting (though it does not allow to favorit in the blog post itself) it is not an integrated experience for the user. My plugin idea will be ( I am not programmer) to duplicate the comments module, as comments can be now made from everywhere to anywhere – then instead of text entry just allow to click a button and as in comments here also a list of clickers (commentors) would appear as a list of Likers which can be shown in an overlay box.
Overall it seems Like is not used or not used properly by BP users. Maybe Jetpack Like is used by many individual blogs.
What is expected usage :
1) I am speaking of an uniform Like button under a blog post or a photo or any content. I should be able to Like it there. I should be also able to like it from an entry in the activity stream if I so wish. This is how usually Like is handled in almost all social scripts as well as real world social nets.
2) On hovering or clicking a Like button or a “Liked” link I should be able to see in a scrollable way the names/avtaars of Likers and the total number of Likes
3) A tab or link in my Profile should show content names / thumbnails of what I liked.
4) The plugin should disable BP core favorites
———-
When tested with WP4.1, latest BP and Media plugins like rtmedia, the results are:
- buddypress-like does (4) above , not others
- love-it.1.0.4 does not work
- wp-ulike is not a Network plug in at all, its suitable for individual blogs but as a super admin of WP mutlsite you cannot set its features like you can set features of BP – see issues posted by ronia – this and this. While it is nice for Blogs Like buttons do not appear below Media files or Media posts created by Media plugins
Hi @christoph744
I’m sure there is a way to filter the members loop via BuddyPress but if you want a WordPress approach then check out the WP_User_Query class. Assuming that s2member uses custom fields to distinguish members (I may be wrong on that) you’d want to look at using the Custom Field Parameters
Ref: https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_User_Query
I’ve been looking for days for a way to filter only level2 and level3 members into my membership page. I’m not able to get any of the examples I have located to work.
My site has a basic level1 option to remove ads and receive some basic tools. Level2 and 3 receive access to buddypress.
I want to filter out all level1 members from the mysite.com/members page so that level2 and 3 members don’t see level 1 members listed.
Any help with this would be amazing. If you tell me which files to edit and the locations I can find them in, I can do the rest.
Thanks again!
Hi,
I am trying to implement “push” of buddypress group comments in a mobile (native app).
I am having having to find a native vendor who support buddyp comments pushing to IOS/Android.,
most apps”aware” e vendors like wiziapp and appresser can have push for post out of box.
Based on the above, Here is what I was thinking.
Goal:
1) Implement smart “aware for new posts in buddypress (groups)
2) implement start “aware code” for comments made on group topic updates.
For 1
Everytime someone create a topic in my buddyp group, the conditional logic also create a post instead of a comment for that particular new “topic”. it could check every 5 minutes or so or be encapsulated inside the wp_comments, so for every comments it creates and deletes a post.
For 2
Similar to 1, for every comment over a topic, the wp_comments also creates a post over that topic, and read all users involved in that topic. and generate and delete a post. (to/or somewhere else hided)
By creating and deleting posts over wp_comments, I will be technically able to implement “app aware” for buddypress comments which is something doesn’t exist today.
Can anyone help me on that ?
My buddypress is not intense, but I would be great to have pushs for comments so that my users will get notice of updates in their topics in their mobile without the need of open the app.
@rizar9 – buddypress is a membership plugin (and more) – but you may not need that kind of community (that buddypress essentially creates) – you could use a regular ol’ wordpress site and something like s2member if you are set on a membership plugin.
If you find a way to encrypt all the data that gets stored in the database, please let me know – I have been trying to find a good secure contact form system that encrypts into sql and stuff – which I think would be needed for the hippa stuff with some of my clients..
“without a membership plugin, how am I able to keep a record of the past and pending appointment bookings that the person made?” = I am not sure on that really – but I was pointing you to a couple of plugins up above that seem to do some of what you are describing – so maybe you should install those and play with them – see what they report to you and perhaps some small mercenary (paid) modifications of those could piece together what you are describing(?)
http://fafdl.org/university/members/MarcBrazeau/
I just installed WP-multi and Buddypress tonight. All that I have done is to install Buddypress, BBpress, one theme and to create the page landing pads for Buddypress functionality (Members, Groups, Forums, Activate, Register, etc.)
Is it a theme issue? Or something buggier.
rizar you don’t need a membership plugin for that- you needs a points for actions / karma type plugin and an appointment setting plugin. I have heard of one like that, I guess something similar to https://wordpress.org/plugins/mycred/ and these https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=buddypress+appointments&sort= . From my limited experience dealing with some in the medical field in the states, I am not sure what you are describing is technically ethical or legal – but I don’t know for sure, and I am sure those issues vary by region as well. Just a thought you might want to consider before putting too much into that.
@mariovisie
I stumbled upon something today that may be what are you looking to achieve here..
Introducing Conditional Profile Fields for BuddyPress plugin
I know nothing about how it works, but when I saw it, I thought about you post here and think that is kind of what you were asking to do…
@ronia – I am having some luck with most of the issues you describe using the “gridilicous” pro theme – and rtmedia plugin… am eager to test out the beta mediapress plugin ( http://buddydev.com/buddypress/presenting-mediapress-media-plugin-will-ever-need-buddypress/ )to see if it works with this theme and others to have better enhancements compared to the standard rtmedia thing.
A few thoughts to add to your discoveries perhaps.
(Still have not found anything perfect myself, just piecing together the least bad things at the moment – lol )
I found that most buddypress responsive themes are based on bootstrap – and since rtmedia loads a lot of bootstrap, and font awesome stuff, things would break when I put them together.. so I have to sift through the few that were not bootstrap based in order to use rtmedia.. bp-social is okay – but not totally (only percentage) responsive… I’ve been kicking around some BP + Tempura Theme and Firmasite as well – but have not done enough testing and modding to say whether they are ready for live sites..
I got a book on making responsive themes, maybe I will finish it before end of summer and make one. Hopefully the media plugins will mature a bit by then as well.
Note: I am running on the latest version of WordPress (4.1) and version (2.1.1) of BuddyPress.
Hello,
While I was working on my website, I realized that my register page broke and not working anymore, after spending an hour searching what would cause that, I ended up finding the BuddyPress breaking it. Also the register page that BuddyPress creates is blank, here is the error that I am gettinng this in the registration page (Main one) “Object not found!
The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.
If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.
Error 404
localhost

I would appreciate any help,
Thanks in advance!
Thanks Henry! I had found a couple of plugins last week and one that does everything that I want (HTML, batch, etc.) but, the problem you have to import the contacts into the plugin. How do I export my contacts out of buddypress and then back in to the plug in. Is there a way to do this? I posted on buddypress because no one had responded in the last 5 days to the question I posted on the plugin’s forum. Thanks for your help!
Hi @jhvaletaolcom
You can’t do this through BuddyPress itself, but there may be a plugin that does it for you. Take a look on the WordPress Plugin Directory to see if anything is available.
