Everybody is busy trying to live life and make a living. The folks at VOCE that made Tastykitchen indicated they would provide more information to the community.

We’ll be doing some follow-up posts here with more details around how we’re accomplishing some of these things on this and other sites, so stay tuned.

Nothing yet that I could find, but hey business first.

What most sites could use is a “librarian.” Someone to take the common questions, forum posts and turn them into a functionality knowledge-base. I don’t expect that here soon, so my forum-searching skills will have to suffice.

I’m hardheaded and trial and error is how I learned everything so far anyway. What I am looking for is some road markers, not detailed directions. Once I get started, I’ll post what I’m planning and let the community shoot holes in it so I can learn. Heck, I’ve gotta get WPMU running on my home box first.

Justin Tadlock of Theme Hybrid fame did say that Tastykitchen could be accomplished using Hybrid as the WP-part of the parent theme. My plan is to do that and add the appropriate templates from the BP parent. I’ll build the child from there modifying the CSS and functions.php provided by BP and Hybrid. That ought to create a functioning site. Then I can work on the plugins needed for my project. Since I’m doing a single-blog, directory-structure install of WPMU, I’m hoping to get over that hurdle quickly. Hopefully, before I launch, the merge of WPMU and WP.org will be complete and I can complete that “upgrade” and test it before going live.

I too started a post about this too. https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/bubble-up-notice-to-all-users-message#post-26350

Maybe this will be a feature in the future update.

[Michael Berra]

Another little bug – maybe attached to that one: I just posted a topic (in a newer group) and then it got also published in another older group… strange…

You might want to head on over to the WordPress MU forums as it sounds more like a WPMU problem:

https://mu.wordpress.org/forums/

You can login with the same username and password you use here to post on the WPMU forums!

[snagfly]

Ahh, great. that works wonderful, yes I’m running bp 1.1

[Boone Gorges]

Hi snagfly. I’m the author of that plugin. It sounds like the problem is that you activated the bbPress trigger plugin inside of WordPress. As is stated in the readme files, this part of the plugin is only needed if you are running a separate installation of bbPress with BuddyPress 1.0.

If you are running BuddyPress 1.1+, you can safely delete the file bb-group-forum-subscription.php, keeping and activating only bp-group-forum-subscription.php.

[Paul Wong-Gibbs]

Previous to BP 1.1, all user registration was dealt with by WordPress, so it’s technically correct to point people towards existing WordPress/MU resources and forums for help.

Since BP 1.1, however, BP changes the new account confirmation/activation email – because on the standard BP 1.1 signup page, the user can pick their own password. And of course, it’s a security issue if we were to somehow send their (encrypted) password back to them. So BP 1.1 overrides the standard WordPress MU email so it doesn’t include the password text.

But, the activation link is part of WordPress. Yes, the BuddyPress default theme uses this behaviour too – but it calls the WordPress code.

socialpreneur – This is a forum for asking questions related to Buddypress and this is related to Buddypress. If you don’t know the answer can you please not respond with those types of responses. A bunch of us are all new to this and not sure and it’s a bit frustrating when someone like you post replies like that. Buddypress and MU work hand in hand and therefore people need to know and that is why they are here. We are asking questions because other people are using Buddypress and they might have the answer or a fix for what we are asking. So, that is why it is the right place to ask the question.

DJPaul, thank you for posting the link to the post on the “BuddyPress” site.

[Jeff Sayre]

I assume you mean the plugin Group Forum Subscripton for BuddyPress found here:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/group-forum-subscription-for-buddypress/

You need to contact the plugin developer and provide them with the details about your issue.

I’m moving this thread to the proper forum, “Third Party Components & Plugins”.

[snagfly]

Ha so sorry to disturb, i fixed it by removing the plugin via my ftp. All that jazz and no real show. Fyi has anyone installed this plugin successfully and if so how did you do it??

[Jeff Sayre]

This is really a WPMU question. You should find many threads that answer that question on the Mu forums.

[Jeff Sayre]

@chewbaker-

This is a four-month-old thread that has been marked as resolved. Starting a new issue within it will get you little help.

When providing assistance, most people ignore threads marked as resolved, choosing to spend their time within threads that still have an issue to address.

If it is the same behavior, then please answer these questions to allow us to help you better.

[David Carson]

I’m not sure about a solution to #1. If you don’t have a lot of forum topics, just edit them in bbPress or edit them in the BP Groups forums thanks to the new edit capabilities for site admins.

But for #2, you could use CSS to override the inline style – I added the following to my custom.css file just as a temporary solution.

#forums-directory-tags a:nth-child(-n+4)[style]{

font-size: 24px !important;

}

This CSS3 solution keeps my first four tags a standard size and keeps them from overlapping. This won’t work for browsers that don’t support CSS3 but you could simplify the solution above by removing “:nth-child(-n+4)” and still over-ride the inline style to have a standard font-size that would work on just about any browser but IE6.

#forums-directory-tags a[style]{

font-size: 18px !important;

}

Or, if you must, check out the bp_forums_tag_heat_map function around line 967 in bp-forums-templatetags.php.

I believe our issues are different but both may be directly related to conflicts between buddypress and feedwordpress. Buddypress is a sitewide plugin and the buddypress bar loads for every blog page – so every blog error could potentially be related to buddypress. I don’t have my problem when buddypress in deactivated. So my issue (and yours) with feedwordpress may be a buddypress issue rather than a wpmu issue.

Given your pm reply, I assume you’re not experiencing the same error as I. I have not seen the issue you reported either.

I’m going to unstick this topic from the front of the forums since bbPress is now an included part of BuddyPress.

Anyone wishing to integrate their forums the old fashioned way should still use this topic as a reference since most of the methods here still work.

Great work on the plugin guys. Just one question (which may or may not be directly from this plugin) but is there any way to change what email address the notifications come from?

At the moment, notifications to my users come from the email linked in to my hostmonster account and servername. Slightly weird!

Thread is six months old. This is a WPMU question, too. Search on their forums.

[Marcus (aka @msykes)]

Thanks for the tip r-a-y, will try that plugin out!

[Paul Wong-Gibbs]

Hi

This has been asked on several threads; please either try to search the forum or make a new thread. This one has been marked as ‘resolved’ by the original poster and is about 3 months old.

[Paul Wong-Gibbs]

I’m not aware of any plugins that offer this.

[Tore]

I did it with P2 and an Artisteer-theme. It’s pretty much finished.

Just integrated as per codex instructions (copied all the folders and some files from BP-theme).

1. I called for another CSS in the header instead of in the actuall css file. Had problems with the latter.

2. Didn’t register userbar/optionsbar. Integrated them into navbar or individual pages (all user settings was placed on “profile”). This wasn’t intended at first but was a great way of handling the horizontal space problem. P2 and my theme are intended for a width of about 900px. Without the vertical userbar/optionsbar you can make it fit into that small space.

3. I made all the content fit by handling the CSS item “content” with a good width and overflow.

4. This however made me have problems with the sidebar widgets that are hardcoded (please make them into widgets instead). I had to rip them out because they disturbed the layout.

5. Had to do some additional skinning and handle a fixed amount of categories for the forums.

I just love how components.css did a lot of the work. Thanks a lot Andy!

[brentcee234]

Yep thats exactly what I mean!

[dmcdmc]

hey, i was wondering what the code was you used to add the forum button? I want to add a “my profile” button to the nav but am having some trouble getting it to work. thanks
