BuddyPress.org

Check out the plugin wp-members. I have been using it on a family site and it does exactly what you are looking to do. I only just tried it on BuddyPress (CBOX) tonight. It seemed to work ok.

You want something like a closed beta. http://codecanyon.net/item/closed-beta-wordpress-plugin/3395536

The problem with this scenario is the Buddypress sends asks the user for a password, then the user approval generates another. I have been beating my head trying to solve this same problem. I need users to resister without a password, then when they are approved, they get sent a generated password.

use bp-custom for buddypress code. You preserve you edits if you decide to change or update a theme.

Working on Salutation is a mess… and a bit complicated to use.

I suggest you to test your blog with the twenty eleven theme to see if your posts are coming correctly.

After that you have to test with the default layout of salutation.
Normally, BP has nothing to do with posts. It’s WP stuff only.
If posts are not visible it’s probably due to the theme, which is buggy.
Put wpdebug on true in wp-config (sit at the end of the file) to understand what i mean. 😉

hi @faeronsayn,

are you on a single or MS install ?

What theme do you use when BP is deactivated ?

Go to your admin > Pages and delete the register and empty the trash

Do the same if you have a Login page.

Then go to settings > buddypress.

– Tab Component and check the one you want.

– Tab Pages and create a page from there for each component.

Save.

Now BP is correctly configured.

Check also settings > permalinks and choose something other as default.

If you created some custom menus before installing BP, double check them to have the new pages.

Done !

Cool, no worries Paul!

I guess Clayton’s 25,000 entries would have been cleared if the cron job was running on his install though?

Rather than me mucking p this thread though, we can discuss it here:
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/bp_activity_akismet_delete_old_metadata-what-does-this-do/

Any ideas on how to re initiate that cron job wold be very much welcomed!

Cheers mate 🙂

hi,

or you can also add this piece of code to plugins/bp-custom.php

`function remove_public_message_button() {
remove_filter( ‘bp_member_header_actions’,’bp_send_public_message_button’, 20);`

}
add_action( ‘bp_member_header_actions’, ‘remove_public_message_button’ );

okay…i deactivate some plugins and i found out, that i cant view the stream because of the “Private BuddyPress” plugin

but i cant deactivate it, because i need it.

is there any solution?

Hi @kat_indo, I don’t know so much about programming but a little about plugins, maybe this one could works for You https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/if-menu/.

okay…

next problem:D
i can update my status via the buddydroid app –> perfect!:)
BUT
i cant view the stream… it says, the stream isn’t aviable yet.

maybe it is because i have a plugi installed which let you only view the website if you have an user account..

the plugin names “member access”

can you help me please?:)

okay…

i rename the bpxmlrpc folder and now it works perfect:)

thank you very much:))

https://codex.buddypress.org/developer/customizing/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/ ?

not me but i would assume it would best to do it that way since that’s the way buddypress itself is activated i would have to assume any buddypress plugin would be designed to work properly with networks at one point buddypress was WMPU only if i’m not mistaken.

Hi, any idea of this same with a Templatic theme? (sorry if I’m not posting where it should be)

@djpaul

What version are you running?

hi @diondeville,

to change the profile menu (on the top right of the ToolBar)
<code>
function my_change_profile_tab_order() {
global $bp;

$bp->bp_nav[‘settings’][‘position’] = 10;
$bp->bp_nav[‘activity’][‘position’] = 20;
$bp->bp_nav[‘friends’][‘position’] = 30;
$bp->bp_nav[‘groups’][‘position’] = 40;
$bp->bp_nav[‘blogs’][‘position’] = 50;
$bp->bp_nav[‘messages’][‘position’] = 60;
$bp->bp_nav[‘profile’][‘position’] = 70;
}
add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘my_change_profile_tab_order’, 999 );</code>

Take care with quotes when copy/pasting from here ! 😉

okay

my site url was

http://www.site.de/wordpress/

i change it into the right shema http://www.site.de/

but now it says:

org.xmlpull.v1.XmlPullParserException:

unexpected type(position:

END_DOCUMENT null @1:1 in java.io.

InputStreamReader@4235a618)

The WP standard fields are not used, this is default usage with BP activated.
But you can create your own custom fields on the profile.
More about this here: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3335

oops, sorry, was code for the old buddybar. It’s  now called Toolbar and implemented by default on BP, but i don’t use it.
Also, be a bit more explicit next time you ask for something. They’re many menus in BP. 😉

Use this in functions.php (tested: works on WP 3.5/BP 1.6.3 MS)

function admin_bar_remove_this(){
global $wp_admin_bar;
$wp_admin_bar->remove_node('my-account-forums-favorites');
}
add_action('wp_before_admin_bar_render','admin_bar_remove_this');

The node id’s are all in the footer html of each page where the toolbar appears. This means you have to view the page source code to get the node id you want to remove.
Menu items are in li tags and each li as a ID which begins with “wp-admin-bar-” followed by “-node-name”
