First suggestion is to upgrade to the latest bp which is RC-1. If you can do that and then report back please.

You, as a site-admin, have the overall admin access over all users and complete site options. If you go to your Options in the Site-Admin menu, you can allow registrations to users and blogs would be the simple way. If you create the users, then turn on just blog registrations. Users will be able to create blog and have full control over “only” the blogs they create, not the entire site.

I’m running WPMU 2.7 and BP 1.0b2 and this works w/o a problem as long as the user has entered a “full” name.

I also find users that entered their full name on registration (as this is required by the site).

Hi Mark,

I still can’t see any settings option or a place where I can include Captcha field on the profile page at the time of registration.

Any ideas?

Thank you so much.

The topic https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=843 has been closed and i feel sorry for it, because with my later installation wp MU 2.7 + BP béta 2, i’m still having this error msg :

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/np5397/domains/blogi.ee/public_html/wp-content/mu-plugins/bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-signup.php on line 104

when creating a new blog

that cause several issues :

– can’t edit the profiles, create a group

– blogs are created but aren’t showing in the recent activity, neither in the blogs tabs or in his owner’s profile

– can’t send a message, invite somebody to be friend, etc

it seems that i have no x-profile tables in my db like burtadsit asks

(tableprefix_)bp_xprofile_groups

(tableprefix_)bp_xprofile_fields

(tableprefix_)bp_xprofile_data

here is the list of the tables in my db ; can’t see it

wp_1_comments,

wp_1_options,

wp_1_postmeta,

wp_1_posts,

wp_1_term_relationships,

please how can i create manually those tables in my sqlDB ?

thanks for any advice

I’m running IE (8 even) and that’s not the problem with Laura’s site (nor have I’ve seen it on my own setup).

The registration steps works fine, it’s the end result that is the problem.

So, I have gotten the other plugin to work, this one -> “WP-reCaptcha”.

But I think the one Andy is using on this site, looks so much better.

Any ideas if we can get there?

Thank you so much;

Vida

I would very much like to to add the “Captcha field” to the registration form.

The one Andy is using on this demo site is great. But I can’t seem to get there yet.

Based on this discussion the right plugin could be this one: WPMU-Signup-Captcha

However, it does not seem to appear anywhere after I upload the plugin.

Any ideas please?

Thank you so much;

Vida

See this thread https://buddypress.org/forums/topic.php?id=1018

wow, nobody seems to have a clue, that makes using BP 100% impossible…whats a site with no users?

https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/431

not for me

although i installed the BP beta 2

any progress on this?

I run the trunk version 915 with wpmu 2.6.5 (tried 2.7 but it didn’t help), and i’m still getting this error

On a similar note – how do I activate the chapta field for my registrations?

I was referring to the current development version at:

https://trac.buddypress.org/browser/trunk *Zip at bottom*

I would make a backup of everything before trying it as the standard disclosure! There are loads running that version now (included me) and it is working fine.

Trent

When you say latest BP, do you mean trac version? I am aware of anyone else that is getting that error on the signup process is the only reason I ask.

Trent

There is nothing built in yet to the buddypress suite of plugins. You would have to search for options on WPMU itself. There are a variety of ways. Off top of my head:

1) Have members email the site-admin about registration and then have the site-admin manually create their account (whole time with all registrations off)

2) Use a plugin like “Signup Question” and then make the question and the answer something that you only give out to members you want to join. Almost like “invitation” so to speak.

3) There are plugins that exist for the admin to “approve new blogs”, but don’t know of any that deal with user accounts themselves, but that might work.

4) Create a page that users can use to signup by giving all the required information to the site-admin and then manually create them (so they don’t have to email you).

In terms of WPMU, there really is a “hole” in the invitation or restricting registration. It would be nice if something was created for sure, but as far as I can tell, options really are limited on solutions already created.
