Can anybody help? (our just say, that it is not possible, important or whatever
… Or is my explanation in english so bad?!
My installation is a webportal for youthwork where users can submit stuff with the Plugin TDO-Miniforms. It works great, but I have a question/request:
The activity-feed shows the user who changed (revised) the article. That is not good, because we have to revise with different user from submitter, but it shouldn’t show in the activity-feed. Everytime it is revised by a different user it makes an activity-entry… Would be great if the activity-feed would just show the original author and not the reviser. Is there a possibility to change that?
Second question: The activity feed shows information I don’t want people to see (per example stuff from plugin like that: [hidepost] blabla [/hidepost]). It is like the_content_rss in normal WordPress. My question is, if I can change that or my request if it could be changed at all…
I know this is kind of “special” but for our installation it’s important!
See an example here: http://berra.graphic-studio.ch/community
Thanks in advance

just simple couple of questions… i have a shared host really cheap one with lunar pages…
I installed wpmu and realised that the subdomain function would work as i didn’t have access the Apache server and this means i cant ad the wildcard dns thingy.. so subdomains we out…
so i reinstaled using the sub directory… this worked fine..
i then tried to instal budypress with teh zip files.. as said in the readme…
with the blogs one it just gave a a parse syntax php ( or one of those php eror lines on a white page just saying something was wring on a line around 300 i forget exactely..) error that would not let me do
anything… so i deleted the blogs one and then it worked and i could ad a profile on the admin contol pannel but not on the splash page from register.. it first asked to creat a new blog then the profile so that didnt seem right..
questions.. does budy press work on sub directories and why was the blogs plugin not working..
i am trying to create a social site for spots or locations in kenya…
cheers..
Topic: Member Only Theme
I was looking at other people’s solutions for making a buddypress community member only and really came to one conclusion. It will be best served when the components are added
That being said, I was looking at the seriously easy hacks due to the high volume of SVN updates being made. The simple one I was looking at was doing the following in /buddypress-member/header.php right at the top of the file :<?php if(!is_user_logged_in()){
nocache_headers();
header("HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily");
header('Location: ' . get_settings('siteurl') . '/wp-login.php?redirect_to=' . urlencode($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']));
header("Status: 302 Moved Temporarily");
exit();
} ?>Just putting that at the top of the file would redirect any request to buddypress-member theme back to the login page if not logged in. While there are most likely better ways to do this, I was looking for a simple one copy and paste type edit when things change.
My questions about this are:
1) Is there a more efficient way to do this without multiple hacks to multiple files?
2) If this is a good way, is there an easy method to add the text “You must login to view member profiles” to the login that I am redirecting to as well as a link to the wp-signup.php page?

Hi all, we’ve been working on a Mu+BP site for the past couple of months. We have just launched it into beta this week.
We are not using all BuddyPress features yet, only the profile, activity and wire but will expand with groups, friends and the forum once BBPress is ready.
So, without further ado, the site is: http://flokka.com and it’s a blogging community for Women in business. Apart from members being able to create their own blogs on the site, we also allow them to enter and use an existing external blog if they have one. We use SimplePie for all the external syndication and integration of content.
Feedback and questions are welcome.
Regards, Robert
First of all, thanks for BuddyPress
I have few questions though:
1) How can I get same front page as at testbp.org?
I understand that I can set what to show as the front page in settings/reading, but it doesn’t look like login page anyway… if I chane my settings, it takes me to my personal blog
I need to set everything up and get it going ASAP
2) I want to show ads on the site.
But can’t figure how and there I can put them in the layout… Any advice?
Finally,could you let me know please when is the first realize approx.? I know that it’s going to be in the end of the year, but cant check time schedule, because google thinks I’m a Thai coz’ I live in Thailand… I mean, I like everything about BP as I’m an old fan of WP and in need of a social network, but if its still a long way to go, I’d have to consider other options.
Thanks a lot,
Boris
Topic: Bugs? & Questions
Hi – first: This Project is GREAT – exactly what I was looking for combined with a perfect timing… We are running right now a test-community just to check out BuddyPress (redmountn.ch)
No I’m afraid, that I am a green horn, and it’s my fault… But I’m posting my possible bugs and questions anyway:
1. Could it be, that IE has some Troubles with BuddyPress (I know, nobody here uses it, but the people “out there” do
)? Examples: Friend-Finder doesnt really work, The Logo in the Menu-Bar is in the wrong place, adding a friend does work, but the process doesn’t stop etc… If there is a link underneath the pulldown menu (in the menu-bar), the menu doesn’t work properly)2. Could it be, that real-time Updating doesn’t work properly…? The Activity-Feed of my Friends does updates only every couple houres (in our test-community)? The friends-activity is outdated, etc
3. Group-Pictures don’t work… (I tried it with bigger ones that 450×450)
4. Did you think about other languages? We are from Switzerland and would like to have/make a german translation. But it doesn’t make sense to change the files themeself (because of updates). Any other things planned, in mind, possible?
5. I think it’s not very userfriendly, that my landig-page after login is the backend of wordpress – my opinion it should be my graphical-profile “in” BuddyPress or something…
6. Maybe that is a dummy question – but anyway: What is a “Group” in BuddyPress? Is that a tag? How does it work in the “backend” of wordpress and can it there be changed etc..?
There are quite a few questions floating around about the URL structure.
A lot of people are asking if it is possible to separate the profile from the blog. In BuddyPress profiles and blogs are completely seperate.
When a user signs up, they set up their “home base” which is where their profile, a list of their blogs, their wire and so on are stored.
This could be:
http://andy.domain.com OR http://domain.com/andy
Each time they register a new blog, the blog is given its own subdomain or folder, depending on the structure:
http://andysblog.domain.com OR http://domain.com/andysblog
For each blog registered by the user, it is listed on their blogs page on their home base:
http://andy.domain.com/blogs OR http://domain.com/andy/blogs
A few people are wondering if it is possible to change the structure to:
http://domain.com/profile?user=andy
This would fundimentally change the way WPMU works, so it’s not in the best interest of current WPMU users. However, it could easily be possible to set up a redirection from:
http://domain.com/profile?user=username TO http://username.domain.com
I hope this clears up the URL questions.
Cheers
Andy
I’m really excited about BuddyPress…
I’ve been kicking WPMU and Buddypress around for the past few weeks with a view to adopting it to build a social site for some groups I am involved with.
The BuddyPress stuff is looking very cool and potentially could save a lot of bespoke development and/or plugin integration and customisation BUT… and this is a pretty big but…
As echang highlights above, it worries me that a user has to have at least two different sub-domains in order to have a blog. Could a potential solution, at least in part, be to create a mod-rewrite rule that maps a blogs sub-domain to a sub-directory of the primary user sub-domain such as /blog. Thus the blog admin could be http://username.domain.com/blog/wp-admin/
I’m pretty new to all this and I might be over simplifying the issue (or I might just be overly “simple”???
) but I would be extremely intrested to hear what others in the WPMU and BuddyPress communities think about this topic, along with any other proposed solutions.
First, I’m really excited about the potential of BuddyPress. I’ve installed and tested the latest version. A few questions about what’s coming up.
1. Home page content/views: I’ve seen the note about adding aggregation to the home page eventually. I’m wondering if you can elaborate on what form that will take. Specifically, will you be able to show the latest posts and content (title, photo/video, post, author info) from members grouped by recency and/or category?
2. Blog subdomains: for my purposes, I’d like to have users signup, choose a username.domain.com as they do now. Then, have one blog automatically created for them. Also, rather than having them choose anothername.blogname.domain.com as they do now, the blog URL would be username.domain.com/myblog or something without a separate subdomain name. Is that possible?
3. Lastly, will there be an RSS feed for all community activity?
Topic: bbPress Integration
I read somewhere that you were planning on this, Andy, but I just wanted to throw this out onto the new forums for further discussion.
If I remember correctly (better not quote me on this) that you were planning on having a generic forum for the entire site, as well as group specific ones. Great idea–kind of like Facebook.
I just had a few questions on how this would work, exactly. Would there be two or three installations, one for the “site forum”, and one with a bunch of categories for the different groups? Or would be it be on one forum with some others hidden?
Really looking forward to the release. Good luck!

BuddyPress now has it’s own bbPress forums set up to make it easier for people to discuss the project and what’s going on.
Feel free to ask any questions and discuss any topics relating to BuddyPress. The mailing list will still be used, but more for developer discussions.
We’ll be adding a custom BuddyPress design to fit in with the existing http://buddypress.org site in the next few days.
