BuddyPress.org

This is a public help forum you shouldn’t really be soliciting private help, all help here is on a volunteer basis.

Have you actually bothered to contact Continuum author yet as has been suggested once or twice now? It has been strongly suggested that it is actually a theme issue so it is down to the theme author to try and help really.

We can try and help but frankly have probably exhausted the limits to which we can.

On the duplication issue, there was another thread in which this was happening so I suspect that there is a common cause involved that is being induced by some themes – an extremely long shot but there have been occasions where members loops duplicated odd members this nearly always resolved down to Caching plugins, you shouldn’t be running any until such time as thought necessary on a production site but in case you are deactivate them.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-block-activity-stream-types/

This plugin blocks any activity type you define.

The template pack approach is all but redundant now with the imminent release of BP 1.7 which will work with any theme without having to go through the template pack process – you will likely not have performed the third step where you need to match the copied BP files now in your theme to your themes standard markup structure.

So if you’re just starting to build your site please do so with the beta release of 1.7 more than likely by the time you’re ready 1.7 RC t will be ready and even if not the beta is very stable and won’t change much other than to fix any little bugs found.

BuddyPress 1.7 Beta 1

Great minds… 🙂

I think we should be de-emphasing a difference between group and site; BuddyPress supports just forums, and we add that if people want to add a tab to their groups, that they need to click a button inside bbPress.

@djpaul I have updated the forums info last Jan 3, 2013 using bbPress plugin only -> see forums component listed at https://codex.buddypress.org/component/forums/ onto the page https://codex.buddypress.org/user/setting-up-a-new-installation/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/ Just need to complete Group Forums only section – have some questions there.

Your site is in maintenance mode, so we can’t see it. Further more, your question is best posted to bbPress.org as this element is part of bbPress, not BuddyPress 🙂

I have the same issue and have tried a bunch of different options. Most of the plugins that do this are old and don’t really work. I tried editing some of my php but without success.

Previous may have mislead:

IN addition to Dashboard/Settings/Buddypress there ought to be

Dashboards/BuddyPress and so

Dashboard/BuddyPress/xxx is also possibl; perhaps that’s where you expected Courseware to be – but I don’t see that it’s a problem if it is at Settings/Courseware if you have access to the settings you need.

HI

The correct place for the BuddyPress settings menu is Dashboards/Setting/BuddyPress

It may have been somewhere else in much earlier versions.

I don’t know anything about Courseware but I don’t see how it could be further nested under BuddyPress in the Dashboard – I’ve never seen any WP settings file except immediately under settings.

It would be up to the builder of the Courseware plug in to decide where to put it but the options would seem to my unsophisticated eyes to be Dashboard/ or Dashboard/Settings/

Hi
Having been a newby 6 months ago and having set up a BP installation a couple of times now with a few months in between I would say that setting up Buddy Press involves following the instructions VERY carefully. BP 1.7 makes some of that easier but it is a touch more involved than installing and configuring a typical WP theme.

Your post above is not very clear about what is and isn’t working. For the more technie guys to help you you should also provide your WP version, the theme you are using and your URL.

One thing to check is if you have turned on the components that you need to do the things you want (given that BP 1.7 intstal leaves a good few of them turned off for the good reason that not everyone needs them).

Look at the topics on this page to see if one addresses your problem: https://codex.buddypress.org/version/1-7/

Sorry I can’t be more specific but a. I’m not an expert and b. you haven’t described in enough detail what you did, what you expected to see and what you aren’t seeing.

Sorry this is not too much help.

It’s good to see some marketing around buddypress 1.7 going on. 🙂

Two very important things as I am testing 1.7 but not finding

1 . How do I let a site member block another site member from posting to him/ seeing her profile and activities?

2. How do a site member makes her blog post / photo viewable to a friend/friends only?

3. How to post comment to a blog post from activity ( see oxwall.org) ?

Too Pricy for me! 😀
