Users who receive a private message are unable to reply to it. They can enter in a message into the text box (below the message they received from another user), but once they click “Reply”, nothing happens (the waiting circle keeps revolving indefinitely). The user they were trying to send a message to doesn’t receive anything either.
I’ve installed the latest version of Buddypress and WordPress.
Any ideas on what’s causing the problem? Or how I can get the feature up and running again?
Hi all,
I have task to convert existing community from custom made script to BuddyPress (I’m also checking other community scripts/solutions).I would like to know does some features of existing community can be applied to BP
1) Currently, members are divided into four Programmes and those Programmes have generations (like 2008, 2009, 2010,..). I have installed BP and there are Groups but without subgroups or something similar.
2) Members have different profile fields depending in which Programme participated (90% of fields are same). Is it possible to make something like this? Is it easier if only admin create users?
3) Community is almost 90% private and activity will be available only for logged in users. Also, some profile fields (Name, Surname, Group and Generation) are available for public view.
So, my biggest problems are different profile fields and more/deeper group levels.
I really like WP and BP, but not sure where to start cause I’m not that good familiar with BP.Good call to everyone’s post on this thread. We develop online communities as opposed to social media networks. Our site members do not want a media feature. Yet it would be great to see it integrated into a future BP release. Maybe, private groups can have the option of using it?
EricI would like to encourage people to register and become a website member by limiting which parts of the buddypress website they can view. Ideally, I would like to designate which pages are only viewable to logged-in users, and if someone who is not logged-in tries to view the page then they are redirected to a registration form. I’m running BP 1.6, on WP 3.4. I spotted the BuddyPress Private Community plugin but it hasn’t been tested in version 3.x yet – and some report that it’s broken. So, any suggestion on how to achieve this?
Hi there,
My developer just disappeared, and I’ve had hard time in answering hard questions from my clients. There’s one urgent thing I’d really could use your help considering privacy in Buddypress.
I have Buddypress running as discussion forum for a group of people. They have formed their own groups and naturally have their own user accounts. They now wish, that although their groups (if not set private) would remain public for any browser to see, that their user accounts would be invisible for the unregistered users of the forum.
Is there a way I could perform this privacy upgrade? Thanks!
i have a strange problem with a site running buddypress 1.6.1
the problem is that i can view a profile of some users but a profile for an editor i cannot view, i get a page not found.
When an editor is logged in he cant send private messages although the private messages is turned on in settings, but i as an admin can send pm to other users as long as the user is not admin or editorhi all, i am trying to write a buddypress plugin. i hooked a file upload control (`name=’ma_file’ id=’ma_file’`) to the private message screen and its showing up there on the compose screen. now i have to access the file selected in the file upload control. m trying to access `$_FILES` inside a function i wrote in `messages_message_before_save` action. but `$_FILES` always returns blank. please help
Topic: Buddypress possible bug
Since the upgrade to 1.6.1 I have had a couple of my members say that the website is not working properly.
I have tested it and I have the same issues
1.) Blog import functionality (using a plugin) seems a bit hit and miss, but more importantly
2.) Private messaging, replying to threads it only seems to let Admin reply, if I try and reply as a normal user (author level) it just replicates the homepage in the place where the message is meant to be. It’s very strange indeed.
Is there anywhere where I can download an older version of wordpress to timetravel back and check to see if it’s the upgrade, or something else playing with the functionality!!?
Mike
First: Big thanks to the developers and the community that make this software available.
Running: WordPress 3.4.1, BuddyPress 1.6.1, Apache/2.2.22 (Ubuntu), fresh install
Desired setup: I am at an institute with 5 groups. Some users are shared between the groups. I have made virtual hosts so each group has a separate domain (with separate directories) and there is one domain for the institute. I would like to have a private BuddyPress installation for the entire institute. Then I would also like to have private BuddyPress installations for each group of which members are selected from the institute membership.
What I have managed so far:
– Separate WordPress installations for each group.
– These installations share the same database, but are distinguished by having different prefixes for the tables.
– All share the same user table (like in this example: http://www.steelfrog.com/share-user-database-tables-between-two-wordpress-installations/)
– Enable multisites on all the different installations of WordPress
– I have successful division of users, if you aren’t a user on one site, you can’t login and edit.BuddyPress installations then show all users, not just users of the specific site.
And now I have reached the end of my technical expertise. I suspect the next step would be to find out how BuddyPress determines users (use everyone in the user table?), and filter it so that only users of the site are displayed. And how do I determine if they are users of the site?
Then to make the separate sites private, I would use something like http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-private-community/ for privacy, which as I can tell checks if the user is logged in. This is not sufficient, I need to check if the user is logged in, and also an accepted member of the site.
I don’t really know what to do next and if it is a 2 hour job or a 2 month one (or longer…)
Another approach I had previously tried (and failed with) was:
– Install WordPress and enable multisite
– Install Networks for WordPress
– Create the different networks
– Install BuddyPress multinetwork plugin
– Install BuddyPress and activate on each subnetworkAt this point each BuddyPress install added all current sites from all networks and all users from all existing networks. And I couldn’t get privacy to work at all.
So if anyone has any knowledge or experience to add I would greatly appreciate the help. And maybe with my notes, someone else might get further than me because I’ve seen many people are interested in similar setups.
Thanks,
cereusI have a series of annoying issues that likely are caused by an inexperienced Dev building my BP site. It is a custom site shamanscircle.com .
A key factor of the site is the establishment of the BP forum area.
Issues are:
-not able to create new forum in a group; I’ve searched and done MANY things to correct this-including the simple toggle of settings which worked once, but not on new groups.
-establishing a private area of BP so non-logged in users can not see or access the info; I tried a few plugins, that are no longer being developed it seems and the one “Buddypress Registration options” just killed my site. I am frankly really surprised this is not a built in feature of BP as surely MANY private communities are using BP, no?
-for some reason in the members list only 8 of the 9 are showing. Weird… why wouldn’t all be shown? There is nothing different about the one who is not in the list. BUT, if I choose to show alphabetically, voila, they appear.Any thoughts on these would be highly appreciated, thank you for viewing and responding!
I have several groups that are set to “Private” and would like to exclude them from the Directory. I received direction on how to exclude “one” group and that works great using the following:
php while ( bp_groups() ) : bp_the_group(); if(bp_get_group_name() != “Name of your Group”) :
then add the ?php endif? before the endwhile.
How do I edit the above to exclude multiple groups and what code would be used in the groups-loop.php?
Hey guys I use BuddyPress with the Elbee Elgee theme… And the recent update for BuddyPress just messed a lot of things up. It’s been like 2-3 weeks and I still can’t fix it. When I switch to the BP-Default theme everything works perfectly fine. I’ll list the issues I’ve been having;
– Myself and all of my users cannot post in “Activity”
– When someone sends a private message no one can reply back. Everyone would have to send a new message every single time.
– No one can add each other as friends
If anyone can help in anyway, I would really appreciate it!
