@Mouchoirs Do a search for “Private Buddypress site” or something like that and you’ll find lots of threads on how to redirect non-logged in users to the login or registration page.

@djpaul,
Seems like you should be able to just replicate the user account creation calls on another page right? This is something I was considering doing for my project. Basically, someone could upload a list of email addresses and names, and it would create the person’s account, email them a temp password and they’d be good to go. Yes, I know WP use to do temp password and took that out, but in this case it might be useful to do.

is there a way to have a page with all documents uploaded from all groups? of course, preserving the permissions. Meaning that without being logged in you can see only public groups documents, if logged in you see documents from your private groups too.

To remove the default tabs, you’ll need to modify the theme.

Read this page:
https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/building-a-buddypress-child-theme/

Then, once you’ve got the hang of that. Copy over /bp-themes/bp-default/header.php to your new child theme and modify the tab structure.

The function you’ll want is:
`is_user_logged_in()`

Wrap a is_user_logged_in() conditional around the tabs you want to show only for logged in users.

Something like this:

`

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

<li class=”selected”>
<a href="//” title=””>

`

Note that if someone knows the URLs to those tabs, they’ll still be able to access them.

You might want to look into some BP private plugins like:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-private-community/
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/private-buddypress/

Thanks @r-a-y , I’ll give it a go.

No need to hack BP.

Put the following in your theme’s functions.php:

`
function ray_bp_get_send_public_message_link() {
global $bp;

return wp_nonce_url( $bp->loggedin_user->domain . $bp->activity->slug . ‘/?r=’ . $bp->displayed_user->userdata->user_login );
}
add_filter( ‘bp_get_send_public_message_link’, ‘ray_bp_get_send_public_message_link’ );

function ray_bp_get_send_private_message_link() {
global $bp;

return wp_nonce_url( $bp->loggedin_user->domain . $bp->messages->slug . ‘/compose/?r=’ . $bp->displayed_user->userdata->user_login );
}
add_filter( ‘bp_get_send_private_message_link’, ‘ray_bp_get_send_private_message_link’ );`

Thanks for the followup Greg. What is the exact change you made to the bp-messages-templatetags.php? Trying to figure out if it has already been updated in SVN.

I agree to this! For now, how can I switch the places between the cancel friendship button with send private message buttons?

Sure. There’s one featured WordPress.tv presentation from WordCamp Yokohama. It’s a Japanese site (with English translation), http://loftwork.com, which only used BuddyPress components like Blog Tracking, Activity Streams, Private Messaging and Extended Profiles. Didn’t use Friends, Groups and Forums.

You can temporarily fix private messaging by overriding the username filter. See #2583 for hints.

Probably more the other way; that BuddyPress needs to communicate when caches need to be refreshed better.

Hmm, I was under the impression batcache would only cache public pages (non-logged in users). The above seems to indicate otherwise. Is batcache really buddypress aware (I noticed the last update of the plugin via the repo was back in April ’09).

No courseware. The site was launched March 2009 on WordPress MU/BuddyPress. Slight modifications based on snippets/plugins posted by Burt Adsit, Paul G., Boone G., JJJ and Andy.

The content is mostly pre-recorded video and audio – not a formal educational program with assignments etc. So the setup is pretty straightforward and most of the customization is just theming. Main site has different content for logged out and logged in users. “Classrooms” are private sub-domain blogs (soon-to-be sub-domain sites) with a classroom theme. The main site and classroom sites are both using custom child themes powered by the BuddyPress default theme.

I’m in the process of upgrading the site so I’ll be around here more often if you have questions.

That “section” could be a “group” component already in WordPress and joining groups is either voluntary for public groups or by invitation for private groups and each group can have a forum if the group admin so chooses. That’s basic behavior which can be changed via a plugin you can make to do so. You could check out BuddyPress Group component and other default components by logging in http://testbp.org/ with the username and password you used here.

Object caching bug most likely experienced with W3 Total Cache.
If you don’t have W3 Total Cache installed, not sure.

similar problem over here, autocomplete function finds valid users and shows them up, but in the following lines an error is displayed 3 times:

“Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at mountpointwp-contentpluginsbuddypressbp-themesbp-default_incajax.php:556 in mountpointwp-contentpluginsbuddypressbp-messages.php on line 556”

any idea?

by the way, is there a plugin which enables a better useabbility for choosing multiple user’s to send a private message to? Something like a list with checkboxes for example?
