BuddyPress.org

Then my company will be the first to create it :).

Thanks. So, after unserializing data in my OPTIONS table, user_roles, I find, among other data, the settings of “keymaster” and “member” and “moderator” and (not) wordpress “subscriber” and a lot of settings like this:
`[moderate] => 1
[participate] => 1
[keep_gate] => 1
[import_export] => 1
[recount] => 1
[manage_options] => 1
[manage_themes] => 1
[manage_plugins] => 1
[edit_users] => 1
[manage_tags] => 1
[edit_others_favorites] => 1
[manage_forums] => 1
[delete_forums] => 1
[delete_topics] => 1
[close_topics] => 1
`

All this has to be Buddypress ghosts inside the user role row in the different “options” databases. I guess it is impossible to remove all these data… but… do they have any effect upon my multisite performance, or do they have any effect on my users (multisite blog owners) roles in the multisite?

I am asking because something is messing up my multisites different blogs comment settings.

Hy Ben,

I use default buddypress theme and gallery creation is from buddypress through gallery plugin. Not only… in bbpress forum is the same problem: user with Samsung galxy s3 Don’t see button “create” or “submit”

I didn’t change anything but it now says,

‘# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

# END WordPress’

The PHP version is 5.2.17

Thank you Gentlemen,

Your answer was more than I could have hoped for.
I am very excited to know that a new version of buddypress is on the make. I cheer the engineers on and hope they consider lots of flexible header options. 😉

Also, I’m now thoroughly studying the ‘https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes’ with an aim to figure it out, as I think I might love coding, & though I have no idea what I’m doing half the time,… I seem to spend days on this stuff …. there’s no end to the fun.

Zuckerberg may have created the first ‘popular’ version, but not the last.

Okay, I activated the Private BuddyPress plugin and this now works for me. It didn’t work when I used the Activity page as my static home page, so that is still my issue.

Hugo, thank you for pointing that out. I was not aware of your forum protocol, I apologize. I should have used italics? I want to stress my point, but not shout 🙂

I have seen many posts here that have gone unanswered regarding the very same issues I’m having so I got the impression that patience wasn’t leading to any answers. I don’t mind being patient, I just really would like answers one way or another – it can be fixed or it can’t. With that information, then I can make a decision on whether I can use Buddypress/bbPress combo or not and move ahead.

Here is what I still need help with:

1. How to make the Activity page the static Home page and not get the 404 error when posting. Paul said this is fixed in the next release of Buddypress. Does anyone know when that release is and is there a workaround in the meantime that someone can walk me through?

2. Buddypress offers options to make a group ”Private” or “Hidden”

Both options claim: “Group content and activity will only be visible to members of the group.”

This is not true – everything I post in the “Hidden” group I created shows up in the public activity feed to a test user I created who is not a member of that group.  I need to be able to offer the secure knowledge of privacy in these groups to our users. Is there a way to truly make this information private and not be mortified when one of my users finds their private information on a google search?

Paul’s answer is unclear to me: “I am not aware of any bugs with your second issue; if the current user is a member of that private group, they have access to see its activity items on any page on your site.”

3. I would like to make the whole site private – accessible only after registration. I would like people to have to register and their registration be approved by me before gaining access to the site. Is this possible?

Thank you for any help.

I figured out that the problem is with having the activity page as the static home page.

I changed the home page to a blog page and then added the activity page on the navigation menu and now I’m able to post comments.

So it looks like you can’t have the Activity page as the home page on Buddypress until the update. Is that right?

I did that already chouf – I chose the Activity page as my static home page.

The problem, again, is when anyone tries to comment on the Activity (static home) page – it looks for the reply page at /activity/reply – but the page does not exist.

Why doesn’t the page exist? It should come standard in bp shouldn’t it? Where did it go?

What is on the reply page? Shouldn’t it just go back to the activity (static home) page with the new comment added?

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!

I’m feeling more and more discouraged about the possibilities of this working for me. How can ANYONE use buddypress without people being able to comment on the activity feed?!?!??!!!!!?????

forgot to update thread. Yeah, I don’t remember what word it was, but I think I had a word that was pg-13 in there. my apologies for not catching that myself.

Thanks for your response Chouf1

I set my homepage as a static page and used the Activity page as the homepage. I think that’s why it’s not working. It’s looking for /activity/reply, but it’s named ‘home’. Where do I change the url for the reply page? It doesn’t show up in Dashboard – Pages because it’s a BuddyPress theme page.

Ideally, I’d like a registration where I am sent an email, and then I approve them. This would keep the community private, rather than anyone and everyone self-registering.

The permalinks I chose are the postname option. That’s pretty standard on websites isn’t it?
