Sorry, that is not enough to create a theme which you will need to run WordPress/BuddyPress. You can choose from among the free themes in the WP repo at https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/

If you have any trouble with WP installation or themes, please post your questions at https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting

SPAM ? What should be a profit to sending you on buddydev.com pages ?
when You are in the title speaking about > Adding Posts to a BuddyPress Group
AND in content:
“Over the last few months I have had several clients requesting POST integration into the buddpress group structure. If anyone has BP experience customizing these aspects, your feedback would be GREATLY appreciated.”
AND in other place you say:
“Creating and editing posts on the front-end for members of a group, especially attempting to integrate the pop-up media manager can be very challenging.”

AND I am responding you :
Take a look here because Brajesh is working now on http://buddydev.com/forums/topic/plugin-for-frontend-posting#post-9118 plugin because of adding this to his another very interesting plugin ..http://buddydev.com/plugins/blog-categories-for-groups/ plugin , which when finished will enable front-end creating posts for members of a group.

Sorry that I didn’t read and respond your other questions which I am not expert at all . Maybe I really don’t understand what do you exactly want.

dude

thanks @r-a-y

I’m looking into this plugin and associated comments but have a couple of questions to ask that I cannot see an answer to elsewhere..
Firstly, I only want to show my sites members update posts on the site activity page. Is there a setting in the plugin that will allow me to restrict all other activity posts apart from these.?

Also, I’m not sure where to add the code for the admin update..?

thanks

@pinhit

You’re not going to get told off again but I’m afraid you are asking coding questions, questions about how to adapt and modify a site and that requires a little coding knowledge, not everything is plugin based – although a lot is.

Sorry pcwriter but don’t link to W3Schools it’s not that great a site and we forbade it’s mention on csscreator years ago One of the best resources for frontend coding is htmldog

In reply to: it redirects my user to wp-admin instead of homepage which i dont like

Hugo Ashmore
Participant

@sbrajesh tbh when I read “into their home page” I imagined the OP might actually be using your plugin for re-direct but the post is unclear and needs clarification. It’s vital to try and get across to people how to perform basic troubleshooting so that they can come prepared in advance with the kind of detail that’s needed to help out.

First rule of thumb is to disable plugins and return to default theme if the issue goes away then you know it’s either a custom theme or plugin issue then when the actual item has been identified questions can be addressed directly to the author or of course brought here.

No we must establish what’s happening first, before throwing another plugin at an issue, masking the symptoms and never curing the disease. The OP’s question is not clear and raises questions about what is occurring and must be explained in greater detail.

In reply to: A Frustrating Issue with creating profile menu’s resolved

billzy
Participant

Just to update this to close all issues of this topics as I left with a question how to hide items based on navigation in profiles.

So after applying the above solution into your links, then to section off other profile pages ie. I am on my profile page so i can see settings & messages tabs.. but on a friends page those boxes are hidden.

To do this;

? php if (bp_current_user_id() == bp_loggedin_user_id()): ?
Add content here that you only want to see in your personal http://www.domain.com/members/YOU
? php endif ?

All this is asking is if the current profile page user ID # (for the table row) is equal to the logged in user (You) ID#…. That returns True or False… If the answer is True then move forward. .

If your looking to reverse this idea and show something only on others profile pages simply add one ! …. !bp_current_user_id() that will reverse the effect.

There …That took me ages but it will save anyone looking to become creative with their profile menu….

Lastly, I will not be answering any questions about how to implement this, its a basic copy paste job now if you cant do that then perhaps look at other less flexible options.

Hope this all helps…

Matt

Thanks for the info @LPH2005. I’ve checked out the Q&A plugin from WPMU Dev and it looks great! It says on the site that it works perfectly with Buddypress, but I need to find out what that actually means? The main thing is that I need people to be able to follow each other like on Twitter rather than just receive email notifications of questions they’re following. I’ll dig a little deeper, but this all looks promising

Hi @johnjamesjacoby

we are kind of new to all this… How to start? I will check out the latest version via svn. That’s fine. But how to check in? Commit? Push?
Should I add the complete theme as .zip file on a ticket? I guess the size will be too big.
I would like to write this patch, I’d like to start with some easy job to slowly go into all this. So the sidebar bug is an easy startup.

@dennissmolek, i guess we can keep it update save (backwards compatible) by asking if the sidebar is already active
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_active_sidebar

Some more newbee questions:
Where do I add my other subjects? The sidebar was just one example of a long list we would like to discuss and write patches for.

Should we open a ticket for every idea we’d like to change?

Sorry, if some of the questions are already answered in other forum threads.
Maybe it would be a good idea, to write a guide to become an active part on the project.
Thanks for all, we are excited to start

well, In that case, some more questions will help.
1. how do you create a buddypress page? from wordpress admin? from theme, have you added a new component as I don’t see other way to add a page in buddypress
2. Is the page opened using wordpress/is coming inside wordpress (seems to me iT is not )
3. Or is the page independent of wordpress, you are loading that page(php) directly inside the browser ?

In reply to: How to Display Profile Field in the Topic Template

Hugo Ashmore
Participant

Rather than simply bumping and waiting for someone why don’t you try a generally accepted tech forum approach of actually explaining what you are trying to do in a code sense with examples of what you have tried to date that has or hasn’t worked, this way you are more likely to get a response from developers if they can see your working, your approach and suggest ways of achieving what you want to do. Your post simply lacks any detail and begs a whole heap of questions before anyone could begin to help.

I would also suggest you start over as few are likely to look past this many ‘bumps’

In reply to: missing nav-bar

Hugo Ashmore
Participant

Not necessarily an easy fix with so little info to go on. Default is to show the adminbar all the time so setting ‘yes’ to hide it for logged out users isn’t going to change things for logged in users.

Usual questions must be asked now: Are you running a custom theme? If so then can you revert to bp-default and see how that performs.

In reply to: How to make Forum that does not associated with Group

DoctorDR

Quickest solution would be to join Buddydev and implement the ‘Global Forum’ plugin – http://buddydev.com/plugins/global-forums/

You can see it in use on Bravesh’s own forum – http://buddydev.com/forums/

I personally prefer forums which link to groups, since this avoids duplication of topics. The other half-way solution would be to use ‘buddypress-group-forum-extras’, https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-forum-extras/ – which would enable you to set up a group for each general forum type (i.e. support questions, introduce yourself, general chat), then pin these to remain permanently at the top of the ‘Forum Index’.

OK ! It’s working with the exception of the file attachments (because I removed the do_action lines) but the page now posts to the proper forum.

How To Ask A Great Question And Get It Answered

Maybe you are stuck on a homework problem or do not understand a particular concept. Don’t panic. TheChemBook.com is a great place to ask your questions.
First search to see if someone else has asked about the problem. Next, search The Chemistry Text by reading the section on the topic.
If none of this helps, start a new topic by completing the form below.
Start with a great headline. Avoid saying, “I’m lost” or “how do I do problem 12?”
A great headline might be “Determining Significant Figures – Captured Zeros”
Next, type as much detail as possible, for example, add the exact wording of the problem you are trying to answer.
Finally, explain the problem and what you have tried.
The more details you add then the faster someone can help you.
Teachers are available at irregular intervals, therefore, make sure that you help others with their questions, too.

You need to <a href="”>log in or <?php printf( __( ' create an account‘, ‘buddypress’ ), site_url( BP_REGISTER_SLUG . ‘/’ ) ) ?> to participate in the tutoring area.

If you see a way to enhance this template then please let me know. The file attachment plugin isn’t working with this page (nor edit a topic) so something obvious is probably missing.

Hope this helps someone else trying to get a page with a form to post to the forums ….

Ugh. I feel like I’m so close to getting this to work.

Rather than try to create a BP page, a WP page was created with a template. The template contains the following code:

`

Now – the header has gone wild on the whole site, the buttons at the top right disappear on the WP page for ask-a-question, and NO submit button is showing when logged into the site.

Link: http://www.thechembook.com/ask-a-question/

Any thoughts on what is wrong with the code?

Update: Looking at the source after the page loads – the form is not completing; that is, no `` is being served.

“The DB table is “wp_bb_posts”. If there are posts in that table, then that’s good! You could then try repairing the database table.”

Yes, there are posts in that table wp_bb_posts. I just did repair this wp_bb_posts table.

“Could also be a plugin conflict. If you’re running any caching plugins, try flushing the cache, or disabling the plugin.”

I disabled W3TC and all plugins except BuddyPress. Also empties the bp-custom.php and functions.php.

All that it’s still the same problem. Huh? Why?

When we changed the control panel over we did nothing to the MySQL installs on our machines. Just the front-end has changed, so it could not have affected your database.
That being said we would have no info based on what you provided on why you would be having that issue.
We have backups of the site and database on file for the past 10 days, if you would like to check against them.
Please let us know if you have any more questions.

Please I would like to have backup database for 10 days old ago. If the backup database still have the same problem. I may do, how would I give buddypress folk the permission to go into my site?

Ryan S. wrote:

Alright, we have restored the database backup from 10 days ago.

> If the backup database still have the same problem. I may do, how would I give buddypress folk the permission to go into my site?

We don’t know. There may not be a way. As we said, we have not made any changes to your database, and if the problem happened more than 10 days ago (but you only noticed it recently), then the oldest backup will have the same problem. In this case, you may need to restore from an even older backup that you have made yourself, and forfeit all additions since that point.

Mikey3D wrote:

WOW!!!! It works.

John, can you tell me why buddypress folks are right? It’s database. I spend a half a day to figure it out why there was no older post. Why is it, John?

Ryan S. wrote:

The Buddypress folks are not right.

They said it’s a host problem. But it’s not a host problem.

Yes, we have database backups, so we helped you to restore an older backup. But the problem was caused by your application. The application broke the database. Restoring the database backup fixed the problem.

In the future, you should also keep your own database backups, too.

Hope that helps!

@VegasParty607 First, there is no one dedicated to answering questions on the forum. It’s all volunteer. Sorry no one has replied, but repeatedly posting isn’t going to make anyone want to help you.

Sencond, your code for displaying the IP address looks correct, so the problem is likely within the get_IP function. Without seeing the function it’s hard to tell.

Especially fun in this update is the Header Image Rotator: you can display up to 8 images in random or ordered rotation in your header, complete with animated descriptions. You have full control over image display time; fade-in/out speed; description size, location, animation speed… and much more.

See details here: http://buddylite.com/2011/notices/new-in-buddybuilder-v1-2/

Sarcasm ? “sorry if I am messing up your cute little system here“

Just to emphasise what mercime has already covered this is a voluntary support forum this is an OS project if people choose to use the app then that is their choice there is absolutely no obligation on the part of anyone to provide support or help, yet an amazing amount of help is given to newbies trying to get sites up and running and often by people working professionally in this industry so it pays not to upset them or put them off offering that help.

A useful reference on how to post in general to boards is covered here:
http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

and no this isn’t an attempt to condescend or patronise.

There IS NO generic problem with BP but it’s a complicated extension to WP and thus there are many issues that can arise, often these might manifest in a similar way but more often than not have a variety of actual causes, which is why detail on the issue is imperative in order to be able to help.
