BuddyPress.org

I just realized that when logged out, the activity stream for private groups is displayed!
This is a serious security concern!

I am somewhat new to Buddypress, but have built a handfull of WordPress sites. What I want to do is set up a private BP community that has a page with Register, Login, and Forgot Password interface on the logged out page. In other words, I don’t want the new users to be able to see any pages in the community at all until the register, get their password, and sign in, along the same lines as Facebook. Then when they logout, I don’t want any internal pages showing again, until they log back in. I tried just ticking the box in Settings –> General –> Membership – Anyone can register, but this shows them an internal page with the fields on it. I realize I will have to create a custom page to do all this, but my problem is, I don’t know PHP at all. I have tried many plugins, but they still seem overwhelming as to what I need to do. I’m sure there is a way to do this.

Could someone offer some advice, step by step for a relatively newbie trying to get this to work. I’d be grateful and give kudos on the site.

How do i make responses private between student and lecturer ?

Hi There,
I use BP for a network for primary schools. The children are on the network and they all become a member of the group of their class. They work on an artproject and show the results on the network. I just launched the network and the first kids are testing it. I want them to be save in their group but they also need the possibility to show their work to the world. When they make their group public, everyone can join their group. When they make their group private, nobody can see what they post. The friends onlyfunction won’t do the job either. Has anyone any ideas how I can solve this problem, I have to keep it save.

I can’t change the privacy settings of the activitystream It’s all public. The group-privacysettings are not available yet. I’m a bit stuck here. If They post everything in their group and could save “these groups only” on the activity-privacy-settings, that would be the solution, I guess.

Hi!

I just need a development direction:

I’m creating a video games community and I need to create a 2 levels users system:

– the first one: simple users (players) with really basic informations and connecting to community with Facebook, twitter or google account.
– the second one: teams, with more informations (game statistics, team history, gamers list).

My problem is that I would like that players interact only through their respective team. So, private messages system will be only available for teams, possibility to join a group or discussing in a forum too.
In another words, I would like to make a multi users profile…

Of course, I would like to preserve the group system to be able to group teams by games for example.
(I already thought to duplicate the group system or use a custom group type plugin but I really need profile features for teams…)

But I’m really not sure how to create that without touching the BP core…

Any ideas, please?

THX!

I am hoping to create a bp 1.5.1 site that would have some private forums for a group of professionals. I would also like to have some forums available as read-only to the public and to allow posts for a broader class of registered users (if I can automate their membership without to much worrying about spam even better).

I would also like the professionals to have the option of making their profiles private and visible only to their peers, and to have some profile fields be private.

Is this doable with plugins that are currently available? Would It be smarter to wait until some plugins are updated? And does anyone have an example of a similar site I could look at?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I want to be able to create a group where people have to ask permission to join but I also want everyone to be able to see what’s there. I want to use it as an exhibition platform for art and I want the possibility to present it as a group. This option is not available in BP.
Is anyone here capabel to write the code that makes it possible? And if so, should it be placed in the bp-groups-loader.php or bp-groups-filter.php? I know a little about php but not enough to fix this.
thnx.
