BuddyPress.org

Hi @saurabhshukla
How would I go about grabbing the geotag in the exif data? Does BuddyPress Media do that already? The reason I could not get buddypress media to work for me is because it doesn’t give me upload photo button on the posts? Or maybe it does and I don’t know how to use it. Maybe you can help with my questions. My Ultimate goal is so I can upload a picture and the put it on a map(like google map.
Best Regards,
Dave

Also, how can I hide the Activity pages etc. until the user loggs in?

Read my reply in the following thread to accomplish this.

Hi,

don’t know if this will help you, but @imath published a quick fix intended for premium themes.
Original post here (sorry it’s in french): http://imathi.eu/2013/02/21/une-buddypress-1-7-theme-story/

Add this to the theme functions.php

<code>function quick_fix_bp_theme_not_1_7_ready() {
remove_action( ‘bp_after_setup_theme’, ‘bp_load_theme_functions’, 1 );
}
add_action( ‘after_setup_theme’, ‘quick_fix_bp_theme_not_1_7_ready’, 9 );</code>

To understand a little what’s going on with the new BP 1.7 theme compat idea, read here, even if it’s intended for plugins at least.

Feedback would be greatly appreciated 😀

I might disable the plugin and edit the site so when a user logs in they see their member profile instead of the sitewide activity. Any ideas on how to do this?

Have you tried this plugin?
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-login-redirect/

thats strange. how could you install that plugin when the site is in a indefinite redirect loop? I would try to go into your server and rename that plugin and theme temporarily to something different. This will deactivate both of them and then try reactivating each one individually to see which ones causing the issue. Note you may have to activate buddypress default theme after doing this.

Do you have any plugins installed? What are they if so? Did you customize anything?

@bphelp I missed my greater than sign in starting out the page. Now your code doesn’t show, but when I log out, i get an error across the top of the screen instead:

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/*****/public_html/inlandcoder/wp-content/themes/frisco-for-buddypress/members/index.php:12) in /home/*****/public_html/inlandcoder/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 876

@creativepixels What WP theme are you using? Could have been template-packed already.

On another note, if you have a new installation and just starting to develop your site, you could download https://buddypress.org/2013/02/buddypress-1-7-beta-1/ and upload to your server. You won’t need the BP Temlpate Pack plugin anymore. Deactivate it and remove the 6 folders transferred during the Appearance > BP Compatiblity process in your theme’s folder in server. The BP pages will automagically be inserted in the pages. A few themes where theme authors rewrote the default WP templating system have failed but a majority of WP themes tested have 100% integration. So what WP theme are you using?

Click blog above, download the beta, install and enjoy any WordPress theme as your BuddyPress theme

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-media/ is a plugin for uploading lots of media. I only have a small amount of experience with it but you may want to give it a try. I just hope you have lots of server space though because doing this can make your site massive in size.

Some are but some are also premium themes which you have to pay for here is a couple links to those http://buddydev.com/themes/ and http://premium.wpmudev.org/ there are other sites as well that do buddypress themes. Try searching buddypress themes in google.

go to wordpress.org/themes in the search field type buddypress and click search themes button. There is 9 themes there.

to install the buddypress 1.7 plugin beta and it still not working.

@jimah for BP 1.7 beta 1, go to Settings > BuddyPress > Components and enable (check) Private Messaging and Save.
