@voopress There are some BP-compatible plugins which must be activated sitewide and there are those which could be activated in the BP site only.

For example, BP gallery/media plugins must be activated network-wide so that whatever is uploaded in BP site can be retrieved in member blog sites via shortcode/s. A BP group plugin on the other hand, could just be activated in only the BP site. So check the plugin documentation to be clear if it must be activated sitewide or can be activated in the BP site only.

@patrykos360 No. Open up your theme’s header.php file, copy all code, paste in pastebin.com, click submit, and post the generated URI here. Do the same for your theme’s page.php, index.php, sidebar.php and footer.php files.

had the same trouble while testing. but it works. Perhaps try by removing -1 in the update value

and don’t forget to refresh the browser or close reopen it.

i repeat: you have to change the bbpress forum base name.

read here, it’s better english as mine.

some hope here ?

1. Any private WordPress plugin should work with bp. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/members/
2. You can use a maintenance mode plugin but use it as a private site plugin.
3. I have a paid plugin that includes privacy settings BuddySuite

That is the connect plugin choosing the username not BuddyPress. You can use this plugin to allow users to change their login which is the username slug. http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-username-changer/

if you use 1.7 trunk you can proceed. If you’re on the stable release 1.6.3, you have to check the path of the group forum and the path of the SW forum.

Bp use by default “forums” for group forums and this slug has priority. This means it cannot be reused for another page, like bbPress plugin.

bbPress plugin comes by default with the same slug name (settings > forum > forum slug)

You simply have to change this to something other.

imath: I’ve just done a code review of your plugin (the version on github, in master), and have left some feedback on Github. We’re keen to use it on BuddyPress.org once the issues are addressed.

Hi disapointed,

Recent plugins are all network activable.

First of all, plugins have nothing to do with buddypress, which is itself a plugin.

on a single WP install, you “activate” plugins.
on a network install, you “activate site wide”.
By default, WP is a single install. And “network” is a WP parameter. You can install buddypress on a single WP.

Each plugin you install on the main blog is also installed to be used on the network blogs.
To give them these oportunity, you have to check the “plugins” checkbox on the network settings page
your_site/network/settings.php
If checked each blog admin can choose which plugin he want to use on his blog.

Difference between a WP plugin and a BP plugin ?
Technically, none. They work and use exactly the same principle: html, php, header infos, hooks, actions and filters.

But….

The header of a BP plugin contains a tag: buddypress
This is a crucial information for WP who knows then that the plugin should works only with BP installed.

If this tag is missing, the plugin is intended to work with WP (and maybe in some case with BP)
Another difference exist in the action, hooks and filters names, even if this is purely coding stuff and depends on programming quality and knowledge.

And that’s all !
Already disapointed ?

thanks @chouf1,

just upgraded the plugin in repo : https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddy-bbpress-support-topic/

once the change set applied, you’ll be able to use this :
`add_filter(‘bp_bbp_st_print_support_type’, ‘dan_style_support_topic’, 10, 2);

function dan_style_support_topic( $topic_status, $support_status ) {

if( $support_status == 2 ) {
return ‘‘ . $topic_status .’‘;
} else if( $support_status == 1 ) {
return ‘‘ . $topic_status .’‘;
} else {
return $topic_status;
}

}`

@intimez Definitely a disappointment. Do you know of any plugins to accomplish this? I was unable to find any.

Or is anyone interested in a making a plugin for this?

@limitx3m

bbpress plugin that can be used for buddypress groups or just forums would be great. As it is right now, very confusing since each version don’t have the same support for plugins.
