Hi Etiviti!

Thanks a lot for this – when I’m able to add the BBcode and buttons, it will be great!

I still have not managed to do it so your guidance is much appreciated.

Since I’m a newbie, let me explain step by step what I did:

1. After uploading the zip file and extracting on my /home1/fromvict/public_html/comunidade/wp-content/plugins BuddyPress directory, I activated the plugins.

2. After activation, I clicked On BuddyPress -> Forum Extras and followed the instructions to edit the theme on /home1/fromvict/public_html/comunidade/wp-content/themes/bp-default/groups/single/forum and add the ” <?php do_action( ‘bp_forum_extras_topic_links’ ) ?> ” code as instructed.

3. This gives me the successful message:

QUOTE

BBCode enabled.

This plugin will convert bbcode to html prior to database updates and is recommend for external bbPress installs.

You may enable _ck_’s bbcode buttons via the BBCode Settings page but this might conflict with other textarea editors installed (tinymce, markitup) on the forum textareas.

UNQUOTE

4. When I click on the bullet item just below, “BBCode”, I get the following:

QUOTE

Group Forums BBCode

BBcode Buttons

Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_get_option() in /home1/fromvict/public_html/comunidade/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-group-forum-extras/bp-forum-extras-bbcode-admin.php on line 29

UNQUOTE

Any idea of what may be wrong? Thanks!

p.s. Just a (hopefully) constructive feedback: as a newbie, it took me some time to figure out that the groups/single/forum was located in the address I pointed out in step 2. Maybe other users like me have a similar experience. In that case, it would be good to have one simple phrase like “you have now to find where the theme is installed, generally it is a themes/bp-default/ folder under your BuddyPress installation”

what page did that occur on?

wp-admin/admin.php?page=bp-forums-extras-settings-signatures

“i’ll push up a fix later today, “

Thank you very much!!

[rich! @ etiviti]

ok got it… bp_is_blog_page() returns true even if in the wpmu-admin area. i’ll push up a fix later today, i want to see about adding some other stuff

[rich! @ etiviti]

what page did that occur on?

[Gianfranco]

Thanks, r-a-y.

I have to admit that I wouldn’t know how to apply such a filter. I am sure it’s something basic, but it’s just not something I use to do. Could you share an example?

Also, I am not sure what you mean that it wouldn’t fix the activity stream. Do you mean that for that component I will still get mysite/folder/activity?

Otherwise, as you suspect too, I am sure there must be a CLEAN way of telling BP that everything is in “folder” but not to output that. Maybe a funfcion to put in function.php, so that the core BP installation is not modified and you don’t need to edit the core files everytime you update.

Any thoughts?

PS: it seems like others are scratching their heads off the same topic:

What about image upload from within the “Whats new John Doe” Box on the Activity Streams, similar to this idea:

@Famous – The goal of BP Album+ is to use the massive resources of the BP community to create a plugin that is such high quality, it gets chosen as the “Canonical” photo album plugin for BuddyPress. In otherwords, the “Core” BP Album component.

With three developers writing code and dozens of people helping us debug it, the progress we’re making is astonishing!

Come join the discussion, and have your say in what this plugin will be!

works like a charm now. thanks!

[stwc]

This is tangential, but is it kosher to suggest feature enhancements for this forum right here in this subforum?

As more people are coming in, it’s getting increasingly frustrating to use the forum here, unfortunately.

[rich! @ etiviti]

ok, found and i *believe* fixed the problem. just checked it into trunk – will give it one more go around before tagging 0.1.4

(just a naming conflict due to including some bbpress code – so now just excluding loading the plugin on certain pages

if ( bp_is_register_page() || bp_is_activation_page() || bp_is_user_blogs() || bp_is_blog_page() )

And please answer these — https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/when-asking-for-support. Having all that information in one post rather than throughout the whole thread would make it easier for others to help.

[rich! @ etiviti]

ok, found the error…

i need to grab a beer and dinner – and i’ll get this fixed tonight, sorry about that issue. I never use MU

[rich! @ etiviti]

OK, sounds like a MU thing. I’ll download and and check it out now

@hachimaki

Instead of modifying all the BP templates, you could try the Registered Users Only 2 plugin:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/registered-users-only-2/

I’ve made a few mods to that plugin to better support BP here:

https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/bp12-plugin-wishlists#post-42114

@nipponmonkey

Use what I suggested above.

Then turn off registration and manually create users. Assign these users a role of contributor or higher.

[3sixty]

yeeks! @gregfielding is right. It kills the new blog creation – I just had a user report this 30 minutes ago. @etiviti I need to break for a while but will check back in later and try to figure out if it’s a sub-plugin that’s causing it.

I was able to create a blog successfully, despite it hanging on the “blog creation successful” page. My user was able to create a blog, but it got misconfigured, and attempting to reach the blog caused a misconfiguration error to be thrown. I don’t know that this info necessarily helps troubleshoot but I thought I’d throw that out there.

[beeza]

Did this never get developed? It is a right pain at the moment, I have loads of spam registrations and people posting unsuitable content! Something like a Registration Approval system is very important, spam and abusive posters ruin many a good forum blog etc!

I would have thought something as important as this, would be high on the priority list of available options on buddypress! Or is there something already out there ?

[gregfielding]

Rich, @etiviti

this plugin kills new blog creation.

I’m on MU 2.9.2 and buddypress 1.2.1.

When a user goes to “create new” in the admin bar, they can fill out the url and title, but then it goes to some sort of weird screen with just a ‘blog directory” button and no admin bar.

[Gianfranco]

I can’t believe that such a problem is not discussed to the point of being already solved.

I am sure that there are so many people who got wp installed in a subdirectory.

Two days ago I wrote an in-depth topic about just that. Please read it here.

It was TOTALLY ignored by the community.

I don’t care if it is the discussed here or there, as long as IT IS discussed, and not ignored.

Really, is there only 3-4 people with wp in a subdirectory and don’t want a permalink configuration such as: mywebsite.com/wordpress/activity?

C’mon…

(Oh, by the way my site does work with that setup, I just don’t want the subfolder in the permalinks, and yes, that represent a big issue for me).

[hachimaki]

Ok, here I am.

For making buddypress a private commmunity, do the following:

-Create a new page in the admin interface.

-Make the page not to show in navigation with one of these: (http://www.kimwoodbridge.com/how-to-exclude-pages-from-the-wordpress-navigation-bar/ ) (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/exclude-pages/)

-Fill the page with HTML (as you wish). If you want Widgets, you can follow this: http://wpmu.org/how-to-widgetize-a-page-post-header-or-any-other-template-in-wordpress/

-Now, use this in the top of ALL PAGES NOT TO SHOW TO GUESTS: (https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/securing-components-from-non-logged-in-users/page/2)

if (!is_user_logged_in() ){

bp_core_redirect( $bp->root_domain.’/register’ );

}

AND REDIRECT THEM TO THE PAGE YOU CREATED BEFORE.

AND THAT’S IT!

If the plugin is activated, then the registration to buddypress is not possible. 404 error on registration activation page.

i’m unable to duplicate that… this slug => /register/ works for me with various subplugins activated. anymore details to help out?

(also the /activate/ page works fine too)

@boone

You’re right…my thoughts were that if a “master forum”-type plugin never really made it, maybe your group management could accomplish the same thing.

All it would need is a an admin menu for group forums where everyone was automatically a member, and then the possible renaming of these forums from “group forums” to “you-pick-a-name forums”

Easy huh? If I knew the first thing about coding I’d make it myself…

[Boone Gorges]

@greg – the checkbox thing is definitely on my list for the next release!

Not sure if the master forum idea is close enough in spirit to be part of this plugin. I’ve built hooks into the group management plugin to allow other plugins to be managed through the interface, though, so if I or someone else builds the master forum plugin, it could conceivably be managed through the group management screen. (though I’m not sure it makes that much sense, given how the whole point of the master forum is to be group-independent!)

Thanks for the comments and ideas, though, keep ’em coming.
