BuddyPress.org

There is a bug in the deep integration script

if ( !defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) & !defined( ‘XMLRPC_REQUEST’ )) {

define( ‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false );

include_once( ‘/your/absolute/path/to/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’ );

header( “HTTP/1.1 200 OK” );

header( “Status: 200 All rosy” );

It looks like everything is working fine, but a user from the german buddypress forum ( mt ) find out, that wordpress overwrites the buddypress header and so there comes header 200 back and often it is a 302 or even a 404.

this is the new script from mt.

if ( !defined( ‘ABSPATH’ ) & !defined( ‘XMLRPC_REQUEST’ )) {

define( ‘WP_USE_THEMES’, false );

include_once( ‘/your/absolute/path/to/wordpress/wp-config.php’ );

$wp->init();

$wp->register_globals();

I post it hire because I think it must be interesting for everyone. In fact it is really important for seo and the german forum is far away from hire…

Just the basic theme: http://kiaspeed2.com

I need to learn php and css!

since your doing the digging.. I posted a scheme (http,https) security patch for the depreciated and new theme logins @ https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/960

Quoted by Jomark “

I was able to find a work around for this by using custom fields since it does not strip the codes. I have it working on my web tv-social networking site that mostly uses embedded videos, http://piyesta.com/sadyatv.”

Would you mind sharing your tips and tricks on how you did this. I have tried uploading the above plugins and have tried adding the allowed tags, nothing seems to work properly. The embed videos are not embedding. I like what you have on your site.. How did you create a new custom field and implemented in to the default theme? Thanks!

<?php include( WP_CONTENT_DIR . '/themes/bphome/feeds/feeds.php' ) ?>

Yes, the load_template calls need to be replaced with locate_template calls. I will fix this shortly.

The code is spreaded through many bp template tags, like:

function bp_get_profile_header() {

load_template( TEMPLATEPATH . '/profile/profile-header.php' );

}

Since TEMPLATEPATH always point to the parent theme, currently if someone uses a custom theme, then it’s impossible to use those template tags. Not a big deal, almost always it’s possible to write a copy of the function and load the correct file.

If I remember correctly, there is a function named locate_template that first looks into the child theme, and then into the parent.

@detective, I thought that issue was addressed but it’s possible it crept back in. Child theme files should always override the parent file, with the exception of style.css and functions.php which have special handling.

Hi Marius,

so how does the dashboard for users look like for the Group-Blog ? Does the user still have access to his own dashboard or is it possible to disable this ?

I guess by using P2-theme, there is no need for the complicated user-dashboard anymore ?

Many thanks,

Erich

Hi Marius,

many thanks for your answer and your work to create this plugin for version 1.1 !!!

I am looking forward to using this.

– is it possible with BP to disable the “Wire” ?

– is it possible to use P2-theme in your “Group-blog” ?

– are there any language-related wording in your plugin (at the user-interface) which need to be translated when I would like to run your plugin for a german-language-website ?

Thanks again !

Erich

I just tested locally BP 1.1.

The new theme architecture is great, previously I had a custom bp theme that integrated another WP theme (Thesis). Now it is much easier to integrate another theme!

However, I have found that the BP code many times uses the following code:

load_template( TEMPLATEPATH . '/some_file' );

This doesn’t work quite right if some uses a custom theme, because it directly looks into the parent theme for some_file instead of checking in the child theme first.

Was he ever a BuddyPress.org member? I don’t recall his name. If he was on BP in the past and you know the his username (I assume it would be a pseudonym since I don’t recall his real name), then simply message him directly.

Otherwise, you’ll have more luck inquiring on the WPMU forums.

I’m closing this thread as it has nothing to do with BuddyPress support.

I have not yet confirmed support for the old themes in 1.1. This will happen.

– can I have a Group-Blog instead of the BBPress-Forum ?

– I would like to disable User-Blogs for each single user, but instead have a Group-Blog using P2-theme. Does this work with your plugin ?

– Is your plugin compatible with BP-version 1.1 ?

– what is the difference from your Group-Blog-plugin compared with the one from Burt ?

Many thanks,

Disabling them is just removing this from the template files:

<?php bp_the_site_blog_avatar_thumb() ?>

in bp-themes/bpmember/directories

I have to keep them in, because no picture would kinda break the logic of the layout.

So what is the latest on this? How/where can you set the blog avatar? When will this functionality be added to BP?

I am having the same probably. I have read many other posts and nothing seems to work

if ( $bp->current_component == BP_REGISTER_SLUG && $bp->current_action == '' ) {

...

}

But you shouldn’t really need to define this since the register page template is already accessible on your main WP theme (depending if you’ve copied the bp_show_register_page() function from the original bphome theme).

OK, well I had a few problems to start with, mainly due to remnants from the previous plugin version’s structure.

Another thing to note is that I tried putting the events directory in the framework directory rather than the default theme directory, and that caused things not to work. I think it would be better, and in line with groups and member directories, if events could be added to the framework, not just the theme.

When I look at an event that was already created prior to installing this version, I see the location as it should be, however, when going to the front end admin screens, the location is set to the tagline. Updating the location instead adds the new location to the recent news, and leaves the location unchanged IN THE FRONT END ADMIN SCREENS.

There are no icons for the event menu list.

Event invite isn’t working, but I don’t think it is for groups either.

The ajax loading icon has gone from the widget; although the ajax change in newest etc still works, without the loading icon it isn’t necessarily clear that anything is happening.

Also for the widget, can we have event details back in?

Going to domain.com/events doesn’t bring anything up; I’m assuming that this will be where the calendars will be put back in?

This is definitely a step in the right direction. Things seem cleaner. But some of those features really need building back in once this base is established.

When it’s ready, it’ll be available through the BuddyPress/WordPress theme repo, so everyone can have at it.

many thanks for your reply. I do appreciate your work on this – hope to get a copy
