ParticipantThe menu icons in the member theme, the little bullets, next to ‘Activity’, ‘Profile’ etc. don’t change based on the member slug. They don’t have anything to do with it.
They are defined in css and are fixed elements that get displayed as background images like this: url(../images/activity_bullet.gif) based on the location of the base.css style sheet.
They still show up fine even after I changed the members slug to something else in bp-custom.php with the cache disabled in the browser. This is on the latest bp trunk.
Are you using the default member theme? What version bp? Are those the icons you are talking about?

ParticipantI setup the plugin; it doesn’t work, unfortunately.
Anyone else have any other ideas?

Participant@Nicola-
Remember:
<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>
won’t work fine because the template url changes when you’re in pages that use the member theme
This is what I use on my dev site and it works just fine. No need for an extra php file, just a simple, single line of code in the head section of the header file.

Participant<?php
function my_favicon() {
?>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
<?php
}
add_action( 'wp_head', 'my_favicon' );
?>put it in a file my_hacks.php and put the file in mu-plugins/
put your favicon, in the root directory

ParticipantThe main (home) page would have to use a customized theme that is simply a splash page (spalsh screen) that gives basic information about your site and a place to login and sign up.
Once a user has logged in, it would then go to the BuddyPress home page–which you could also customize if you want.
Read this thread for how to Secure components from non logged in users.

ParticipantIt has to be somewhere between the opening and closing head tags
<head></head>
It cannot go in the body section.
Also, I assume that you\’ve followed the standard directory structure for the themes:
'/wpmu/wp-content/themes/buddypress-home

ParticipantMore questions?
- By latest WPMU, do you mean latest public release?
- Have you customized the theme in any way?
- Have you tried disabling all but the BuddyPress plugins?
- Where exactly do you have the BuddyPress plugins installed?
- Have you tried re-uploading from scratch?

Lance Willett
ParticipantHi Scotm,
For custom CSS, it’s best to create a file called “custom.css” in your theme — see the “custom-sample.css” in the theme (you can copy that file, rename it to “custom.css”, and modify it).
For the border, you can probably use the #main element, like:
#main {
overflow: hidden;
border: 1px solid red;
}The reason the border doesn’t go all the way to the bottom of the element in your current setup is that there are floated elements inside of it — meaning that the parent element does not wrap them. Using “overflow:hidden” is a nice way to wrap those floats.

Burt Adsit
ParticipantI’ll reply to the name issue here also. The group names and descriptions can be arbitrarily long and can trash the theme layout in bbpress. These are two different software packages Elody and I chose to be as minimally invasive as possible. I left the forum name and description up to the bbpress/wpmu admin’s discretion.
I didn’t think that a site admin would be too happy to have the theme broken by a long group name.
I included a way out also. The name and description of the group are pulled over to bbpress and are available as template tags for you to use.
oci_group_name()
oci_group_description()

jfcarter
ParticipantIs there a way to force a login to view the member directory?
Also, is there a mechanism to force a theme for all new user blogs? Even though I’ve disabled the default theme in the Site Admin panel, all new user blogs still have it.

ParticipantSocialpreneur, this is perfect! Do you think there is anyway to prevent the Site Admin menu selections from being overridden by individual blog owners?

ParticipantThanks Lance. Nice job.
I don’t like idea of permanently using outside paste bins right off the bat for the reasons you outlined. We’re already using them from time to time for temporary things. It’s just that, transient and temporary. I do like the idea of stuffing code on one for sharing and collaborating. Forums and blogs seem to hate code. A paste bin has lovely things like line numbers and syntax hilighting. Isn’t there a code editor built into wp itself? The regular one. I’ve never seen it since I’ve only worked with wpmu where it’s insanity to hand over the source code to a theme to all blog admins and give them a ‘save’ button.
I think the Codex pages should be sources of documentation and education not guides to implementation. That little tutorial I wrote today outlining how to mod the admin bar would be better suited as a blog post on that tech blog you mentioned.
I completely agree about the new FAQ sticky forum post. It only really solves my frustration at having to hunt the damn things down all the time.
A bp group forum like the one that exists would be an asset once Andy fires up the actual group forums. One problem/solution one thread.
So, it looks like I’m voting for all of the above.

Anointed
ParticipantI’ve got a ‘weird’ idea that may apply, though it will probably be very specific to my business model.
For me, one thing I was thinking about was having members perform certain tasks such as 50 blog posts, 100 replies to threads, 20 blog posts that are rated ‘thumbs up’ by at least 20 other members, prior to being able to have a ‘custom theme’ in wordpress.
On the reverse side we could have a warning system, where if a person’s articles are marked ‘thumbs down’ by say 50 diff users that they are then warned about loosing custom themes etc…. encourages members to write ‘good’ posts in their blogs.
Another idea is how many of their posts are ‘featured’ on the main blog where they could then receive other yet to be determined bonuses such as plugins. I don’t know that there is a way of letting the server admin actually choose posts from the blog network to ‘post’ to the ‘main home’ blog. I don’t want to use the site aggrigator, as there will be many blogs and posts such as family pics etc that have no business being ‘featured’ on my main blog.
finally, as I want to encourage my members to blog ‘quality’ stuff as often as possible, some type of achievement system for posting ‘x’ number of posts per week/month would lead to an award such as using a real domain name etc.
I know that the premium site has the ability to charge people to add features, and I do have the plugin for that, though untested so far. I was just thinking of adding an additional way for people that can’t afford to spend money to get their blogs ‘prettied up’ per say.
I’ve really been racking my brain silly for the past few months, trying to figure out how to properly encourage quality submissions on the blogs and to encourage frequent updates. I think your ‘achievements’ system is a great step toward that idea.
Like everyone else here, the last thing I want is a bunch of blogs on my network that are neither maintained or have ‘garbage’ content that has nothing to do with my sites primary focus. I really am trying to get people to blog in specific categories that mean something to the site and the search engines.
hope these ideas are pertinent

ParticipantThanks again, Peter. I’ll check this out.
Any other plugin or code ideas would also be welcome.

ParticipantNo. Here\’s some code from the plugin:
‘/* Hide the Dashboard link (2.5+) and the Tools menu (2.7) */
function wphd_hide_dashboard() {
global $menu, $current_user;
if (!current_user_can(‘edit_posts’)) {
if (0 <= wphd_hide_dashboard_version(‘2.6’)) {
unset($menu[0]);
} else if (0 >= wphd_hide_dashboard_version(‘2.7’)) {
unset($menu[0]);
unset($menu[4]);
unset($menu[55]);
}
}
}
‘
I\’d remove \’unset($menu[4]);\’ and \’55\’ and see what happens. Someone who better understands programming may be able do add/edit this to get what you want.
The plugin is from Kim Parsell. Perhaps you can convince her to expand it and make it more modular.

ParticipantThank you, Peter, this will help with the tools. But I still want them to be able to access certain parts of the Dashboard.
Do you know of anything more modular, that will let me pick and choose what users can see?
