Topic: Group Types
Is there a way to make it so even though the group is private the contents of the group would be visible to everyone? Or if the group is public that they users of the site would still need to request memberships to join groups instead of having freedom to join any groups they want?
Reset his account password, log in with his account, go to private messages, and find/delete the one in question. It’s safer than fiddling in the database
I have a private group on a custom design: shamanscircle.com
I can’t direct you to the forum as you’d be sent to the login page, and not able to see the forum.
I have Private Buddypress doing that redirect, and have BP Registration Options installed so approval is required to setup a forum account. I also created a random forth tier page as the registration page to keep people from stumbling onto the reg page.
Undoubtably some spam algorithm has located the reg page and even though this is a new setup we are getting daily requests for users to join.
How can I just not allow any users to request unless they are invited?
Seems there is an obvious need for such a plugin?
Thanks!
I’m using BuddyPress as a searchable directory of people where I want to use Private Message component but only as User-Admin-User.
Users can only send messages (and reply) to admin(s).
Admin(s) can send messages to ‘all in one go’ and ‘individuals’.Any ideas on how can this be achieved?
Thanks for the help.
Hi,
I’d like to show links to inbox, sent messages and “compose a new message” on a custon page. I did find the bp_send_private_message_link() function for “compose”, but I can’t figure out how to do the “inbox” and “sent messages” links right.
Is there a function that returns the inbox and sent messages slug/link?
Greeting Buddypressians,
For the whole day i’m tryin’ to display activities from the specific hidden group in my main activities stream. I don’t want to make groups public or even private because I don’t want to users be aware of other groups. I managed to display activities from groups by adding “show_hidden=true” but it displays activities from all groups and I want to display activities only from groups where user is member. I also tried “scope=groups” but then it displays only activities from groups. I’ll be very gratefull for any kind of help or clues. Buddypress 1.5.6, WP 3.4Thanks in advance,
Jacek KAnd did YOU look at the codex?
Ofcourse, it was the first thing I did when I discovered the problem. I’ve been heavy googling for one hour after I made this question. At the codex there is info that the olny accepted parameters are:
{user_id, box, per_page, max}. Perhaps “box=notices” would be some point of interest (can’t check now as I’m away from working env) but obviusly there’s nothing like typeAnd about: bp_message_thread_has_unread()
I don’t want to check if the message I get is unread or not, but I need to make this filter on the level of query ( not display ), so I am getting only unread messages, not ‘n’ number of messages from which I am displaying only those that are unread because either way I will not display all of them or I will have to query very big amount.I see the great power of BuddyPress, but I’m pretty new in this system (it’s my second day
) and I’m jumping through files and functions looking for some clue. I could optionaly make it dirty hardcode, but then everyone in my team would push me to the pit of inferno //EDIT
Anyway: Thanks for interestHello,
I’d like to know if there is a clean way to display the user only unread messages. I want to display on a front page unread messages’ excerpts that will lead to the particular message.
There is a ‘bp_message_thread_has_unread()’ in the loop that gives me nothing, because I want to display 5 last messages that has status of unread.
Any help or hints would be great.
ThanksOn trying to invite users to a private group, I have no button that allows me to do it.
If I request to be in that group with another user account, In the admin/requests tab I see the request, and I press accept, and it gives me a message asking me if I was sure I wanted to do this, with only a try again button, which I pressed and takes me back to the group page, without having accepted anyone.
I am using WordPress version: 3.4.2; buddypress version 1.6.1 on a clean instalation and the default theme.
Thank you,
Raul.Topic: BP.org – Us vs Them
One of the biggest threats to an open source project is when a “us vs them” attitude takes permanent hold. In the beginning it can be helpful or even necessary to have a mentality that we know better than you. But, as things progress it can become very corrosive.
Before I go any further it is important to point out that the views expressed here are not from someone that expects free software to do everything they ask, nor is it from a frustrated newcomer. It is coming from one of you biggest supporters and users. These sentiments have also been expressed to me privately by some of the very sites you often hold up as examples.
BP has become a closed circle where things are viewed in terms of us and them. Us being those in inside the development circle and them being anyone outside of it. This is very common with these sorts of projects, perhaps its within the DNA. It’s not hard to understand that when a small group does the majorly of the work resentment can build towards those that may be critical of it.
I can list many examples of this, but specific examples kind of miss the point. It is the undertow that encompasses the entire project and the BP.org site design itself. It is about how things are prioritized, responded to, or not responded to.
This is not about excepting new ideas, it is about being open to them. It is about engaging ideas not dismissing them. It is about welcoming inexperienced users not telling them “learn to walk before you run,” as was recently expressed.
The BP team needs to take a hard look at what the end goal of BP is. Not in terms of code, but where it’s place will be in the world of WP and beyond. They need to decide if it is going to remain an exotic plugin for advanced users or if it going to be what it should be, a tool to change the way a new generation websites are built. If it’s the later BP needs to be spending an equal amount of time embracing it’s user base as it does its code.
PS
If you take this post as a hostel act not only did you miss the point, you proved it.Hello! I am using BuddyPress to set up a website in which I want Group admins to be able to add members to groups without sending the member an invitation and requiring their approval. (I know this is usually bad user experience, but there is a good reason for it in this case, I promise.
I have looked at InviteAnyone, which gets me one step closer to my goal because it allows Group admins to invite anyone without requiring them to be Friends first. But I want to go one step further and remove the invitation process when adding someone to a group. Is there a plugin or a simple tweak that could do this?
(I found one related thread, but it is 2+ years old and the solution did not work when I tried to implement it on the latest version of the InviteAnyone plugin: http://buddypress.org/community/groups/invite-anyone/forum/topic/automatic-add-to-groups-including-private-ones/?_wpnonce=c8dd5d7953#post-137582)
Thank you in advance!!
When someone tries to compose a private message, the auto complete function looks likes it is working, although no results are shown. The loading graphic of ajax is running, but it doesn’t find any usernames or display names. Maybe it is due to the fact that I have some plugins running like BuddyPress Real Names and in the past had the plugin BP Display Name running. I have already consulted a lot of online auto complete issues and troubleshooting pages, but none of the given solutions solved my problem. I guess there is a misconfiguration in my database, but I have no idea where to search. I hope someone can help me out with this or give me a clue were to look for. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,Olaf
@modemlooper this should be very simple so I figured I would consult you, so how do I make your cool plugin bp-profile-menu assigned to a particular position in the nav menu I specify? Also I was wondering why notifications/private messages is not yet implement in your plugin? It would be really awesome if you could login and see the menu that your plugin initiates also notifies you that you have a message. Can this happen or do I need to code this on my own? Thanks man!
