Both the member adminbar and the home theme logout options take you back to the originating url. Upgrade to the latest trunk or the beta download.
Here’s the code which can be found in the BP home theme header:
<?php if ( function_exists(‘wp_logout_url’) ) : ?>
/ ” alt=”<?php _e( ‘Log Out’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>”><?php _e( ‘Log Out’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>
<?php else : ?>
/ “><?php _e( ‘Log Out’, ‘buddypress’ ) ?>
<?php endif; ?>
What I did was added this code to my theme’s functions.php file:
<?php function _user_name()
{
global $userdata;
get_currentuserinfo();
echo $userdata->user_login;
}
?>
Then, you construct your links like this:
http://yourdomainhere.org/members/<?php _user_name(); ?>/profile
Just swap out “profile” for whatever you want to link to.
those paths sounds good
Here are my paths:
wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-member/
wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/
usually do not put buddypress home in member-themes/
have you tried bbpress and wpmu inegration ?
burtadsit, I am totally confused and brain dead.
Excuse my ignorance.
Here are my paths:
wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-member/
wp-content/themes/buddypress-home/
From install instructions:
Move the “buddypress-home†folder to “wp-content/themes/†and move the “member-themes†folder to “wp-contentâ€.
You should now have the following folder locations “wp-content/themes/buddypress-home†and “wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-homeâ€.
How does buddypress-home get in both paths? See, I’m brain dead.
Once again. You have a config problem. This is the same path you mentioned in another message as having a different problem. I explained there also that:
/wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-home/…
Is not a valid path for bp.
The only thing under /wp-content/member-themes is /wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-member/…
Boy, I thought this was going to be a go until I got this: when trying to create a group:
Warning: require_once(/home/ramona/public_html/wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-home/index.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/ramona/public_html/wp-includes/theme.php on line 822
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘/home/ramona/public_html/wp-content/member-themes/buddypress-home/index.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/ramona/public_html/wp-includes/theme.php on line 822
I’m logged into buddypress as the admin
I just installed fresh this morning – buddypress-combo
Fresh install of bbpress-1.0-alpha-4
Fresh install of wpmu trunk r1574
As a side note I also got an error trying to access user account, but I’ve posted that elsewhere here.
It looks like it’s almost pudding, but not quite. What am I missing?
Hi wardeh. Are you just gonna skin the home theme? In that case yes. custom-styles.css is what I would use. If I remember correctly it gets fired up last in sequence so it overrides the other css.
Yep. Just looked. Both the home and member themes look for custom.css and load it last.
Nevermind I found it in the buddypress-member / css folder
I’ve been looking around in the css files.
In buddypress-home > css, I found custom-sample.css. The comment in the file says to rename it as custom.css and put style changes in that file.
This way style changes will be preserved even while updating the buddypress-home theme.
This is the answer I needed and I’m posting it in case it will help someone else too. Thanks, Andy, for enabling this through your file structure.
Did you put /member-themes in /wp-content? I made the mistake before of putting it in wp-content/themes, but it really goes in /wp-content.
When I have problems with either the member or home themes the first thing I do is thrash around looking for the problem in code. It’s never the code lately. Lately it’s me. I was having *weird* home theme problems right after an update to bp.
After awhile I realized I hadn’t moved the home and member themes out of /mu-plugins into the correct spots in themes and wp-content.
I was running new core code on old theme code. Didn’t work well.
The ‘news’ button only works if the home theme is running on blog id 1. Sounds like it isn’t. You have to hack some stuff to get it to work. If you are comfortable changing the code in the home theme then it’s here:
if ( $current_blog->blog_id > 1 )
return false;
lines 59/50 in themes/buddypress-home/functions.php. Comment those out and news works.
Thank you Andy for taking time out from getting the beta release ready to help. Your help was spot on. I’m wondering why all the permissions weren’t set at 755 to begin with. I’m going through individually setting them to the right levels but its quite painstaking.
Hey burtadsit – funny – I figured I’d do theme work as well until someone chimed! I’ll admit to you that this is my 1st MU install, all the others were vanilla WP jobs. Wierd. I use hostgator and they are a little off in the way they store your files. Just found it via another route. Disregard. Will give the bbPress install a go. Thanks. You’ll likely be hearing form me again.
Mike
Howdy mike,
1. Yup. bp relies on bbpress for it’s forums.
2. ahhh… you can’t not have one. It’s the only way that mu knows where to go for your database and other such things. You looking in the correct dir?
3. Torturing animals is high-level?
Until somebody chimes in with a magic solution to all this, I’m gonna go work on a theme. So there.
It’s entirely permissions. Make sure everything in the theme and any JS/CSS in buddypress is 755.
Hmm that worked a little. Things are a little less busted up, though still kinda screwy as you can see if you visit. Any more ideas?
Sorry to bump but anyone have any idea what I’m doing wrong here? I’ve followed the readme install to the t. Help.
To be clear I’m using the latest WPMU and r658 of BuddyPress. Also, though I said above member-themes didn’t work when I followed the readme instructions and so I moved it to wp-content/themes/, I’ve since moved it back to follow the readme instructions exactly. Things still not looking right. Help?
