Hidden groups and public groups work as expected.
Membership of private groups seem to be removed automatically after some time. Users have to request membership of private groups again and again (nearly once a day).

Hi….ive created a second instance of the compose form for a private message, which is used form a specific custom post type to send information to the post author. of course, when the message is sent, the user is directed back to the message view, and the standard, your message has been sent text. I found where this is coming from, in bp-messages.php,
` // Send the message
if ( $thread_id = messages_new_message( array( ‘recipients’ => $recipients, ‘subject’ => $_POST, ‘content’ => $_POST ) ) ) {
bp_core_add_message( __( ‘Message sent successfully!’, ‘buddypress’ ) );
bp_core_redirect( $bp->loggedin_user->domain . $bp->messages->slug . ‘/view/’ . $thread_id . ‘/’ );
} else {
bp_core_add_message( __( ‘There was an error sending that message, please try again’, ‘buddypress’ ), ‘error’ );
}
}
}
}`

So im wondering if anybody has any thoughts on how, or if, i could test to see if the form was being submitted from my custom post type, and if so, redirect to a different thank you page instead. Ive tried several things, none of which worked, and only broke my form. thanks!

I’d like to create a private buddypress community. Is there a plugin that makes my website private to non-members but redirect non-members to a login page? I’m using BuddyPress Privacy Component plugin, but I can redirect non-members to a particular page where it can ask for the login.

suggestions?

Hi All,

I was on my Admin dashboard for my wordpress 3.0.5 + buddypress page and when I tried to ‘disable’ the groups option in the Admin section, I sent my entire site offline with the following message:

Fatal error: Class ‘BP_Group_Extension’ not found in /home/privatee/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress-group-css/bp-group-css.php on line 81

Through FTP, I tried to re-upload the buddypress-group-css plugin over top the one in question, but no such luck.

For now my site is under maintenance.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Steve

Is it possible to set up two user levels within BuddyPress (user and moderator) and then prevent users from sending messages to other users, but allow them to send messages to and from moderators?

Thanks

I was looking for a simple forums plugin to add to a wordpress site and initially I tried bbPress, which seemed to meet my requirements very well.

Unfortunately when I discovered that it lacked private messaging, I was pointed in the direction of BuddyPress with the instruction to install it and then turn off any extras that I don’t need.

I’ve installed it, it works okay, so now I need to ‘turn off the extra bits’ – this is the part I need help with!

A bit of background about the site, it’s going to be support for patients receiving medical treatment, so they can discuss their treatment with other patients and also send private messages with their clinician.

As these people may not be too computer-savvy, it needs to be as simple as possible to use, with all unnecessary features turned off / hidden.

Also, as it’s discussing sensitive information it needs to be as anonymous as possible, so real names, avatars, identifying information etc, needs to be kept hidden.

I’ve looked and can’t find a general guide to ‘cutting down’ BuddyPress, the administration is quite limited to what is hidden and shown, so I presume I may have to go on a function by function basis.

Here’s the list of things which I would like to remove:

1. Real Names
2. Avatars (remove display of them all and options to change)
3. Only admin can create groups
4. Think the random ‘visit’ on top right of the bar might be confusing
5. Search box in the BuddyPress pages – is this duplicating the searchbox in the main site navigation?
6. I’m also little unsure of whether the Activities / Members / Groups / Forums navigation also unnecessarily duplicates the top admin bar. If I was just to have one link to go straight into the most important page, would it be ‘Groups’ for me?

If there is a guide to removing some of these things, please let me know, if not, I would appreciate help on a step by step basis!

Thanks
Ashley

We’re running WordPress 3.2 and BuddyPress 1.2.9 using BuddyPress Template Pack 1.1.3

When I compose a message I enter all the fields – Send To; Subject and Message.

When I send the message I get…

There was an error sending that message1, please try again

I found where this message originates in the BuddyPress message.php template. There are three places. I added a 1, 2, 3 to see which one is causing the problem.

The 1 is for the a missing subject or content. After sending the message and when the error messages appears the subject field remains filled in, but the content field is blank. For some reason the content field is being wiped out and seen as empty.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Art
