I started all over again and it worked. Installed clean wp 2.9.1 single user… then installed buddypress… and finally bbpress (after setting up bb-config.php file)

Groups and forums all work nice!

OK to finish this off so that the topic can get back onto the image resolution.

in bp-activity-templatetags.php ~line 258 there is the function bp_activity_content. in the return apply_filters part at the bottom of the function replacing $content with html_entity_decode( srt_replace( ‘%s’, ”, $content ), ENT_compat, ‘UTF-8’) seemed to do the trick. I copied it from the filter for the rss feed futher down on line ~462…

Apologies to those trying to get images to work, but this thread helped me sort out my problem.

@Gp01

Only really changed the IMG output above to mimic the [a] tag and put the plugin description at the top, dropped it into plugins and activated it.

Problem I’ve got is how to strip out the html in the activity stream, or to turn it into a clickable link with the activity stream…

None of this helps the forum topic here though….sorry…

@hatiro, Can you create it as a plugin for all?

[peterverkooijen]

Simple plugins that leverage established, mature gallery apps would prevent much of those upgrade dilemmas. Let Zenphoto and NextGen handle upload, compression, database storage, gallery creation, etc. The BP plugins then only have to provide ways to display images stored by those apps within the BP context.

That is the open source approach. What Djsteve suggests is the proprietary commercial software approach. Nothing wrong with that, but Boonex and SocialEngine are already doing that. If that’s what you want, expect to pay.

Personally I chose WP/BP because I want to be able to mix and mash scripts. Built-in forums, galleries, event management, etc. only make that harder.

[hatiro]

I’ve managed to adapt the above to enable the use of a href tags, and whilst it works fine in forums, it shows the link in all its verbose glory on the activity streams. Any thoughts on how I can get it to allow the tags in the activity stream?

[D Cartwright]

Hmm… The forums ate my reply (twice!)

If you can test on the http://namoo.co.uk site for now and provide some feedback I should be able to release the plugin this week

In regards to your other question – it should be possible but it’s not something I can look into for a couple of weeks due to workload sorry.

[D Cartwright]

Hi again.

Just letting everyone know that the latest version of the plugin is now on the site. Various issues have been fixed, including:

CSS issues for the edit buttons/etc on pages

Wordpress image edit plugin for tinymce now implemented (still a few css issues there though)

Wiki ‘blogs’ appearing where they shouldn’t is fixed

Lots of other stuff I’ve forgotten or not aware of because Stuart/Ryo have fixed

I’ve also added support for wiki edits and wiki comments in the activity stream filters.

I doubt the plugin will be released this week but I’m hoping for early next week. Once again, any feedback would be greatly appreciated

Nope – not for me – renamed the folder “bn-auto-join-group” and still just refreshes the dashboard.

I need a solution to force a default groups or groups on all sign ups – and one that will retro join all users – its necessary for my forum integration or else all old posts are gone.

Anyone?

[1stAngel]

Its your theme, how can it be wrong? All I have done is gone in the css and changed colours

[1stAngel]

I have a growing membership with active members, I really would be grateful for any help to get this sorted with the minimum of fuss to them

[John James Jacoby]

Akismet can sometimes be a little over sensitive, so taking the bad with the good means some false positives from time to time.

If you’re having issues on BuddyPress.org with your posts or topics going rogue, send myself or another moderator a PM and I’ll make them appear again. If it’s an urgent topic let me know on Twitter: @johnjamesjacoby

Also, do this too.

9 hours and no simple answer? Is anyone even reading this forum that knows whats going on?

[Michael Berra]

I know… Sorry to bother, but I still think, that the “forums” seem now like a stranger in the new very-exciting BP1.2 Stream-World…

That way I could get rid of the forums and manage everything through activity and threaded commenting… Maybe later there would come some kind of “categories” and “tags” for groups and activity-items… That would make a very cool forum…

But I get it – thanks for answering (or maybe one day there could be a plugin for this…?!)

[Michael Berra]

I see Andy is moving in the Forums – could you confirm this as a bug/design-issue or do you have a solution for me or hint, what is wrong with me? Thanks!

[Andy Peatling]

If fact, this is a problem with your theme, please follow the instructions on this post for upgrading:

henrybaum, you might want to try using gettext filter instead of hacking core file. Went through this a week ago when I wanted to cut down big chunks of code and DJ Paul pointed me to the right and much easier direction,

[r-a-y]

@Michael

You can change this with a little .htaccess magic.

Say your Buddypress is setup in the following sub-blog – hxxp://example.com/community

Find where your wp-config.php file is located and in the same directory there should be a .htaccess file. Open it up in a text editor.

Above the line:

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin

Add the following:

RedirectMatch 301 ^/members/(.*)$ http://example.com/community/members/$1

RedirectMatch 301 ^/groups/(.*)$ http://example.com/community/groups/$1

RedirectMatch 301 ^/blogs/(.*)$ http://example.com/community/blogs/$1

RedirectMatch 301 ^/forums/(.*)$ http://example.com/community/forums/$1

This should correctly redirect your old BP links to the new ones.

@JJJ

In the example above, is there anyway I can use:

hxxp://example.com/register

Instead of:

hxxp://example.com/community/register

I don’t mind hacking a few core files to accomplish this. If not, I can always theme the registration / activate pages to match the WPMU root blog.

I’ve only spent a few minutes looking into this so far and I haven’t found a way.

[Paul Wong-Gibbs]

“Latest” can be a bit vague. Please would you answer https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/when-asking-for-support ?

[Sofian J. Anom]

Maybe you could make the forum as a subgroup.

[hardlyneutral]

Figured it out with help from this topic: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/how-to-add-custom-usermeta-to-registration

[dainismichel]

So are you saying that I need to look at the php file that determines the layout of the forums page (in BuddyPress) and add the appropriate code to show what’s going on in bbPress?

Can you share the code for the way BuddyPress.org works right now, cuz that’s fine for me.
