    1. Please would you clarify what comments you were referring to? The activity stream? If so, we’ve done that in BuddyPress 1.5, due out real soon. Try it out — http://testbp.org/activity/

    Alrighty, I have a few problems/questions.

    First, I made ten additional field groups, to act as sub-profiles for the members of a family. They have basic fields such as Name, Age, etc. However, every time I fill out a sub-profile, the value of the ‘Name’ field takes the place of the actual member’s name. For example, the name the member signs up with is Smith Family. The daughter fills out her profile field group, and her name replaces ‘Smith Family’ on the members list. Any idea what causes this, and how I can stop it from happening?

    Also, various words in the profiles become links, such as the person’s age, interests, and state of residence. These links have very little purpose, as far as I can tell, and they are very distracting when they appear in such fields as ‘About me’. How would I stop this linkage from happening?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi All:

    I’m just learning the ins and outs of WP plugins. Planning on importing users from a custom site to a BP site.

    Questions:
    1- How do I carry over md5 passwords to WP?
    2- Where do I put avatar images?

    I’m sure there’ll be more questions as I get into it. Thanks for your help.

    – AAA

    I’m glad to help! I’m sure some of my ideas are not the cleanest way to solve the problems, but they seem to work. And as it seems difficult to get answers to questions here sometimes, I try to help where I can.

    Let me know how things go after you get a chance to try them out. Ps. the code I pointed to in that link, if it is not clear- I used it to create an ‘if’ statement.

    Peace.

    @jad117, I hope this helps, and please let me know with another mention if not.

    Basically the first step is to create a blank file called bp-custom.php and save it as /wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php. You can learn more about this file at https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/bp-custom-php/ and what it does and all.

    Then, in that file (or in your theme’s functions.php file) you can paste certain bits of PHP code that have become known as hacks or tricks in order to make BuddyPress act a little differently. One such trick is to move around the tabs and redirect people so that group links like http://testbp.org/groups/buddypress-testers-614548248/ would actually redirect to http://testbp.org/groups/buddypress-testers-614548248/forum/ instead of showing http://testbp.org/groups/buddypress-testers-614548248/home/ as it does now.

    The code I gave earlier does this and like myself, some others after me have offered various improvements or changes, so I’d try them each out and see what works best for your setup. You can only have one function of each name at a time or you’ll get an error. You can also visit http://bp-tricks.com/featured/feature-forums-noticed/ for how the author of that post does this “trick” and see some comments there as well, as that is a site devoted to finding just the right trick to get BuddyPress to do exactly what you want!

    I hope that helps, and as I said, if not, write back at me, and I’ll try to answer any questions you have!

    Thanks,
    Andrew

    @modemlooper, maybe it’s there as a placeholder for future functionality? ;-) IMHO at the moment, providing a “template” option across all Pages (incl. Component pages), is somewhat misleading.

    So given your last post, are you saying that I could hide the sidebar through code in my child’s style.css? If so, how would I do that? If not, which files and how should I do it? I can figure out how to change the width on the “content”, so that shouldn’t be an issue. Sorry about asking so many questions. I am still pretty new to this. Thanks.

    FYI: I’m running BP 1.5 Beta 3

    Hi, I’m using Buddypress and the WPMU Q&A plugin.

    The Q&A plugin has a template file called ‘archive-question.php’ which shows a list of questions. Buddypress has a file called ‘member-header.php’ that shows the members avatar, follow button, mention button and so on.

    I’m trying to integrate the two. However, if I copy the code from ‘member-header.php’ into ‘archive-question.php’ it doesn’t seem to be able to ‘access’ Buddypress or any of its functions. How can I get the Q&A plugin template file ‘archive-question.php’ to recognise Buddypress is running and allow access to its functions?

    For example, ‘member-header.php’ calls a function called bp_displayed_user_avatar() – how can I get ‘archive-question.php’ to access this function?

    -> I have a multi site as such:

    Main Site/buddypressSite

    the buddypressSite has the “buddypress admin bar” how ever that admin bar is appearing even on the MainSite. This should not happen. it should stay on its own site, while the wordpress admin bar should appear on the MainSite.

    -> Group Order!

    I see the groups move about as they are updated or have activity. So if I have group1,2 and 3 and post in 3 then the groups are shown as 3, 1,2. This should not be. I want it to stay as 1,2,3 is there a way to change this?

    Just to be clear, the notification function is a callback – you shouldn’t be calling it directly. Use bp_core_add_notification(). See bp-groups-notifications.php for an example of how it works.

    Ok; this DOES print the callback, thanks for the explanation !
    Still; I don’t get my notifications….
    `
    function bp_query_subscribe_format_notifications( $action, $item_id, $secondary_item_id, $total_items, $format = ‘string’ ) {
    die();
    `
    Do not die… :)
    I have notifications in my sql table; and the function IS included :( :( :(

    #119629
    Boone Gorges
    Keymaster

    The reason why you’re not seeing the callback when you print is because the component class isn’t fully initialized at the time when you’re adding yourself to $bp. Try this:

    `function bp_query_subscribe_init(){
    global $bp;

    if ( !isset( $bp->query_subscribe ) ){
    $bp->query_subscribe = new BP_Query_Subscribe();
    }
    }
    add_action( ‘bp_loaded’, ‘bp_query_subscribe_init’ );

    function bp_query_test() {
    global $bp;
    var_dump( $bp->query_subscribe );
    }
    add_action( ‘bp_init’, ‘bp_query_test’, 999 );`

    As for includes, you will need to do your own manual include() for now. Don’t use BP_Component::includes().

    Like this ?
    Still have a problem for the format notifications function.. Thanks !
    `function bp_query_subscribe_init(){
    global $bp;
    if ( !isset( $bp->query_subscribe ) ){
    $bp->query_subscribe = new BP_Query_Subscribe();
    //TO FIX SHOULD RUN AUTOMATICALLY
    $bp->query_subscribe->includes();

    print_r($bp->query_subscribe);

    }
    }
    bp_query_subscribe_init();
    `

    1) No, you don’t have to use BP_Component, but if you can, you probably should. It’s so much easier than trying to figure out which hooks to use. If you don’t need a particular method for your plugin (because it doesn’t have any navigation elements, for instance), just don’t include that method.

    2) There seems to be a bug in the way the includes() method works for plugins. For the moment, I recommend that you include your files manually.

    3) You need to call the $bp global before instantiating your class.
    `global $bp;
    $bp->query_subscribe = new BP_Query_Subscribe();`

    Hi, I’ve read about the changes for the BP 1.5 plugins.

    I have a WP plugin that I would like to extend for BuddyPress. The only functions I would like for it is add BP notifications for some events.

    1) do we need to extend the BP_Component for every plugin, or just for complex components ?
    I my case, should I do it ?

    2) Guess I’ll have to do it. Then my 2nd question : I did a test and wasn’t able to make it work.
    Seems that the child class do not runs the function “includes”. It work if I run it manually; but then

    3) my plugin’s global “notification_callback” is empty. The function exists. though. Guess this is related with the previous thing. But even if I try
    `
    $bp->query_subscribe = new BP_Query_Subscribe();
    //TO FIX SHOULD RUN AUTOMATICALLY
    $bp->query_subscribe->includes();
    $bp->query_subscribe->bp_query_subscribe_format_notifications=’bp_query_subscribe_format_notifications’;`

    my notifications are not displayed (but they are recorded in the sql tables).

    Could someone give me some advices ? Also, it would be wonderful to update the bp-skeleton-plugin !

    Actually I stumbled across this question while spending several hours last night looking for the answer on the infamous Group Avatar step error message, after seeing there were as many different answers as there were questions, and not finding the solution (and doing what each answer suggested), I decided not to fight it. I don’t know if your question stems from this type of error or simply you’ve come to realize the group is created after the first step (as you said), but rather than using php or a core hack,etc, etc, I just removed the upload buttons and text of the avatar step using CSS, essentially users who create the group will consider it a default avatar, not get thrown off by an error message and click through the process; they then do any editing afterwords. Editing the avatar after the fact doesn’t throw any errors as it does when creating the group.
    In my case, I know it’s a child theme problem and having a static home page, even though I followed the buddypress docs to a t. Didn’t want to give up the home page for the buddypress default, so that was my solution. it’s fairly painless and works.

    What difference does it make if I install WPMU or I make my wodpress theme(version 3.2.1) Multi-Blog-Network enabled?
    Lately, I have been creating a WordPress theme (you can see it on one of my domains: http://www.antiquesartgallery.com )
    After enabling Multi-Blog-Networking system i can see superadmin area where I can create a blog.

    My questions are: I have already created a theme and want to integrate it with buddypress, I’m completely confused on how to go about it?

    Further, I have activated buddypress and made a navigation bar with the links of members, groups, discussions, activity. (You can on the top right)

    The issue: All my linkings (forum, groups, members and others) are directing me to the home page and to the destination?

    After too much of wait and searches, I’ve finally come here with a hope. Please help me.

    Hey, Everyone,

    I’m used to forums and the structure of forums. I like the idea of a social networking site, but is there no way to have it organized, at least at the end-user’s (that is, the visitor’s) request, as a traditional forum, in traditional forum hierarchy?

    Seems that, judging by what I can see here, BuddyPress is organized into groups, each of which maintains its own forums…is that right?

    BTW, I’m a hold-out from the period between 1995-2005, roughly, so I don’t really get Facebook, Myspace, Redbook, Friendster, Twitter, whoever! Thus, my questions reflect my general ignorance with social networks and why they’re set up the way they are. I mean, I understand giving everyone their own page, blogs, “groups,” and whatnot…I don’t understand why all that can’t be organized into a traditional electronic bulletin board structure, which seems more understandable to me.

    I mean, I ain’t even sure I’ll be able to find any replies, should any be posted! Took me a few minutes of navigating to find somewhere to post this post, unlike in a traditional forum where I’d just look for the “Introduce Yourself” sub-forum….

    Yes, I know my questions probably make no sense! So thanks for listening….

    Yes, they are all public. This is the option that is marked:
    (x) “I would like my blog to be visible to everyone, including search engines (like Google, Bing, Technorati) and archivers”.

    Today I discovered another blogpost not showing:
    http://hvalross.hib.no/adminf11/tommy/2011/08/30/litt-om-meg-og-min-data-interesse/

    But comments to his blogpost is showing in the activity stream:
    http://hvalross.hib.no/adminf11/activity/

    I’ve also discovered that timezone settings are wrong in a lot of the blogs. I have told the blogs admins to set them properly, and now I will wait and see if that solves this mystery (might be that BuddyPress checks time in a certain way to decide to show stuff in the activity stream or not).

    btw, thanks for asking. I felt alone in here. Good to know someone reads my questions :-)

    3 Great Questions:

    “The other integration point I’d be interested in is a member profile. bbpress has their own profile page but I’d prefer to integrate this into the Buddypress profile. Is this possible?”

    “Does “BuddyPress integration” mean that bbPress now provides an API for buddyPress but buddyPress is not using it yet?”

    “The other integration point I’d be interested in is a member profile. bbpress has their own profile page but I’d prefer to integrate this into the Buddypress profile. Is this possible?”

    I would also like to know the answer to please

    I actually have two questions:
    1. How would i add more fields to the group creation page…i tried editing the PHP and got lost. I really don’ t know buddypress that well and my PHP/Mysql skills are basic. I tried editing it and the button the continue to the next step just disappeared. I also already have that plug in that allows you to add fields as a group administrator but what i want is to make certain fields standard for all groups.

    2.I have an excel file and with about 700 capoeira groups. How can I put make that available in my buddypress site.

    Any and all help is greatly appreciated. When i tried to edit the PHP/Mysql my button to continue to the next step just disappeared..i’m using the BuddyBoss theme and my site is http://caradacapoeira.com

    Thank you all ahead of time

    Maybe I’m not understanding, not maybe, definitely, not understanding the whole roles and user blogs relationship within Multisite and Buddypress. I’m getting all kinds of craziness happening Seen here and now after years of registering users and blogs being created and adding users to some sub sites and not others, I’m left with users belonging to some sites not others, some where superadmin is a “hidden” admin on some subsites where he can’t be removed! And I’m just confused to how all of this is “supposed” to be set up right where I don’t get the “as seen here” issue above. I’m gettting some users who don’t even get assigned a primary blog at all while others get assigned a random site as their primary blog. I just want to get to a point where all admin sites are well managed as far as users go and where user blogs are clear of random subscribers, where everyone is either admin to their own blog or they belong to the mainsite and all is good.

    What is the best way to have roles assigned to users on a buddypress multisite install.

    I would think all members should belong to the main site at registration, right? Not any other admin site in the network. At least just the main site.

    Once,if, the member creates a blog, that particular blog becomes that members primary site, right?

    If a user contributes a post to any other site in the network, does that site become part of that user’s sites? as seen on wp-admin/network/users.php where users get listed a column called “Sites” with blogs they’ve somehow become part of.

    When I activate/reactivate buddypress what happens that chaos occurs to my wp_bp_user_blogs table where users begin getting assigned different blogs that they are not admin on. And superadmin blogs begin getting dropped from the table all together.

    What should a regular user’s role be in a buddypress multisite network? What the heck is “member” and “inactive” role.

    Why do users have to be assigned a role to be recognized as an author on another blog on a network? I have many sites in network that have frontend posting forms where users can submit posts. I trust that because they are part of the network that this would be no big deal…often times I need to add this user to the specific blog for different authoring things to work properly and for the member to be recognized as the author. So that’s where I have to add members to sites that begins to muck things up in the questions above.

    how can I reset the primary_blog in the wp_usermeta table for all users to be the main site?

    How can i reset the blogs and userids in the wp_bp_user_blogs table to be only superadmin and his blogs & users and their blogs that they are admins on…ONLY.

    How is all this related within the world of bp!? It’s causing me a lot of pain right now! Please help. Can someone point to a BP Multisite User Roles for Dummies post somewhere? And also a plugin that will “force” user roles to all network members the way I want them.

    Still lots of questions around the combination of WP, BP, BBP plugin after I changed to BuddyPress Widget Theme 1.2.7

    I don’t get the interaction between the 3 parts, especially the role of bbpress
    a) /wp-content/plugins contains
    /bbpress
    /buddypress
    b) /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums contains a complete folder
    /bbpress

    b) Is obviously part of the BuddyPress plugin folder. So is it obsolete to install the BBP plugin?

    Ran a bbpress installation through BuddyPress settings in the WP admin panel. Everything referred to as “Forums” shows Group Forums only in the frontend.

    Don’t find a way to show a forums directory with the (BBP) forums I setup in WP-Admin.
    When previewing forums from admin panel/forums list, I get single forum pages with header but without topics.

    I am confused >;o// hope, I didn’t confuse YOU too much…

    BuddyPress Media is now fully compatible with BuddyPress 1.5. We have a beta version available at the link below, and we’ll issue a release to production next week (once our test team are finished with it).

    http://code.google.com/p/buddypress-media/downloads/detail?name=bp-album_2011-08-07_BETA.zip

    When listing us on the compatible plugins page, please list us as “BuddyPress Media”, and link to this URL: “http://code.google.com/p/buddypress-media/”. BP-Album will *cease to exist* after BuddyPress 1.5 is released (it will turn into BuddyPress Media).

    On behalf of the Buddypress Media team, congratulations on your new release. We’ve spent the past three days going through your code, and we’re just *astonished* at the improvements in structure, efficiency, and documentation!

    This could be worth cake … ;)

    We’ll be dropping by your dev chat this Wednesday to bombard you with questions and talk about what we can do to help get other key plugins working with 1.5 as quickly as possible.

    See you there!
