BuddyPress.org

Hi all.

I just installed the bbpress forums and integrated to my wordpress mu 2.71.beta site. I a looking for help as to how to place the buddy-press theme to the forum? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

i see the right css

Okay, next question:

1. Did you follow the instructions in the first post here under the section heading “If you are using your own customized themes”?

my browser has had a “ten minute” of madness .-) now i see it correctly.

i’m a bit confused: with ff it’all ok. using explorer i see a big red Alice header (Alice is an italian telecom company) and the layout is messed up. It could be my browser’s fault, but i’ve never had this issue with other sites.

hi, using ie7 i have some problems: there is no enough space for the columns and so i see the “welcome” column under the other two.

However, why are you using the Alice header?

I\’ve noticed that virus issue on your site.

You got the VIRUS on your site!!!!! http://www.buddydress.com

Register.php is a BuddyPress file whereas wp-signup.php is a WPMU file. If you use register.php, then wp-signup is automatically not used. In other words, you use one or the other. To choose to use wp-signup.php, you would need to delete register.php from your theme.

Many people have issues customize wp-signup.php. Therefore, I’d recommend using register.php and customize that file instead.

I was wondering if this is what you guys were looking for:

http://wpmudev.org/project/Menus

The plugin gives you control of what menus are turned on site-wide for each member. Well, it’s kind of a “global” thing right now, but it seems to take care of disabling back-end menus.

Here’s the description of the plugin:

“….If, like me, you need to hide the Themes or Import Menu, or don’t want anyone messing with their Permalinks menu, or are frightened by the Delete Blog menu, this plugin will help.

Toggles the following in WPMU 2.7

‘Site Administrator Gets Limited Menus?’,

‘Posts’,

‘Posts Add New’,

‘Posts Edit’,

‘Posts Tags’,

‘Posts Categories’,

‘Links’,

‘Links Add New’,

‘Links Edit’,

‘Links Link Categories’,

‘Pages’,

‘Pages Add New’,

‘Pages Edit’,

‘Media’,

‘Media Add New’,

‘Media Library’,

‘Comments’,

‘Appearance’,

‘Appearance Themes’,

‘Users’,

‘Users Authors and Users’,

‘Users Add New’,

‘Users Your Profile’,

‘Tools’,

‘Tools Import’,

‘Tools Export’,

‘Tools Turbo’,

‘Settings’,

‘Settings General’,

‘Settings Writing’,

‘Settings Reading’,

‘Settings Discussion’,

‘Settings Privacy’,

‘Settings Permalinks’,

‘Settings Media’,

‘Settings Miscellaneous’,

‘Settings Delete Blog’,

‘WPMU Media Buttons’,

‘WP Media Buttons’,

‘Dashboard’

If you use other plugins to add/disable/hide admin menus, there will be collisions/errors. Happy testing!

Plugins adding menu pages to WPMU 2.7 Adminbar may not be hidden in all browsers.

Favorites menu items toggle as well….”

Burt-

Well, that was one of my thoughts–and why I’m asking Grandslambert to clarify what he meant by

Using WPMU 2.7 and the latest TRUNK of bbPress

I assume he meant BuddyPress. If so, is he running WPMU 2.7 but with BP 1.0_RC2? Did he install the BP folder in the proper spot? You’ve seen my questions above.

But, I’m tired and JJJ had an intriguing idea as well. So, perhaps I should get some sleep tonight and all the problems of the universe will disappear overnight!

Failed opening required ‘BP_PLUGIN_DIR/…

Not using latest trunk because BP_PLUGIN_DIR is not defined or just installed in some fashion that bp-core.php isn’t running on all blogs which means the latest 2.7.1 wpmu isn’t running and the bp plugins aren’t sitewide.

maybe so?

@JJJ-

Hum, I guess that could help…

Grandslambert,

In your buddypress-user/functions.php, take out ALL of the code besides what you need to make your sidebar(s) for your widgets.

Forgot to mention that little part.

Some initial questions:

1. Which versions of WPMU and BuddyPress are you running?
2. Have you enabled all of BuddyPress’ components?
3. Where did you install the suite of BuddyPress components?
4. Are you using custom themes of the standard themes that came with BuddyPress?

WPMU 2.7 and the latest TRUNK of bbPress

I assume you mean BuddyPress, and not bbPress. If so, then here are a few questions:

1. What do you mean by “latest TRUNK”? Did you actually download the BP trunk from trac as a zip or use SVN? Or, did you obtain BuddyPress from the big, orange Download button that can be found on the top of any BP page?
2. What version of BuddyPress are you using?
3. Where exactly did you place the BuddyPress folder?
4. You are using WPMU 2.7 and not WPMU 2.7.1-beta1 or -beta2, correct?

Well, hell Andy. Where did all these template classes come from all of a sudden? Maybe I’m just noticing them. Looks like as soon as you say:

bp_has_<component type>() a template class is instantiated and we get an instant <component type> loop. I see them for all the components. That’s going to make creating and extending themes pretty easy.

Look in each component directory in the bp-<component>-templatetags.php file

Have I just been so buried in other stuff I never noticed them?

I’m not sure what you did exactly to make this so broken, but I can tell you how I did what you’re trying to do.

1. Copy “buddypress-home” theme to a temporary folder.
2. Rename “buddypress-home” to “buddypress-user”.
3. Delete “buddypress-user/home.php”.
4. Open “buddypress-user/style.css” and at the very least, rename the theme to include something with the words “User Theme”
5. Upload this theme, and activate ONLY it in your admin panel.
6. Make sure that theme is the ONLY active theme. This ensures users will only get that theme provided to them at default.

That should do it.
