BuddyPress.org

@darrin365, I think this might solve your problem!

Go into Buddymatic theme header.php file and make sure that its not calling a different version of jquery.

Make sure you are running jquery 1.4.2.

Also check out the well-supported themes by the wpmudev.org group… they cost, but they will provide fantastic support and are guaranteed to work with all upcoming BP updates… Agree with @modemlooper …. the beauty of BuddyPress is you can do anything… the caveat with that is you have to spend a lot of time figuring it all out, trying things, and you might even need to learn a little “programming” along the way to make it do what you want…

Theme, you can get a WordPress theme with magazine format then install BP Template Pack which you will need to tweak to mesh with HTML structure of your WP theme.

Photos, videos and audio (if you allow all three in admin) uploads working with BP Gallery Plugin, which is premium at this time. You could set Gallery page to include all media or set up pages for respective media. Edit – Also individual members plus groups have their own respective photo, video and audio gallery pages out of the box.

There are too many options. There are 725 plugins tagged video for WordPress. Not all of these will work with BuddyPress.

You are better off testing plugins out. As for themes, you can use most WordPress themes with BuddyPress but you will have to adjust the code.

I’m experiencing the same problem – but I’m definitely using a BuddyPress enabled theme. I’m trying to enable registration on my home page by using a template, but nothing is being returned by bp_get_current_signup_step(), so nothing is displayed between

. Is there a way of working around this? @thomallen Did you get this working eventually?

The markup for the edit profile page is in the theme directory, members/single/profile/edit.php. The change avatar page is right next to it, members/single/profile/change-avatar.php. The markup for the settings screens is created in bp_core_screen_general_settings(), located in buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-settings.php. It’s possible in theory to move all of this markup to the same file – say, edit.php.

Then you’ll have to combine the form data handlers, which might be more tricky. When you save your settings panels, they are run through bp_core_screen_general_settings; you can find the code you need there. When you save the Edit Profile screen, it gets run through xprofile_screen_edit_profile() in buddypress/bp-xprofile.php. And the first stop for the Change Avatar page is xprofile_screen_change_avatar(), also in bp-xprofile.php. You’d have to merge all of these handlers somehow in order to get them to process data from the same HTML form.

Good luck.

If you are wanting to mod CSS on a complicated theme, you should really work with a tool like Firebug in Firefox or developer tools in safari… It will save you an awful lot of time

@r-a-y @mercime I just got this from @Brajesh and it is working great! Thank you both so much for your help with this.

Add this to the buddypress/bp-groups.php, around line 476, in addition to the above suggested add (this is a core change, not a theme change):
`
//add this

if(!empty($_POST[“topic_tags”]))
bb_add_topic_tags($topic_id,$_POST[“topic_tags”]);//add the new tags
//end add

do_action( ‘groups_edit_forum_topic’, $topic_id );
bp_core_redirect( bp_get_group_permalink( $bp->groups->current_group ) . ‘forum/topic/’ . $topic_slug . ‘/’ );
}
`

Also, just for reference, here is the function I added to the functions.php to get the tags to go in a row. (associated with the code I posted above)…

`
//topic tags as row

function bb_row_tags( $args = null ) {
$defaults = array(
‘tags’ => false,
‘format’ => ‘row’,
‘topic’ => 0,
);

$args = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults );
extract( $args, EXTR_SKIP );

if ( !$topic = get_topic( get_topic_id( $topic ) ) ) {
return false;
}

if ( !is_array( $tags ) ) {
$tags = bb_get_topic_tags( $topic->topic_id );
}

if ( !$tags ) {
return false;
}

$r = ”;
switch ( strtolower( $format ) ) {
case ‘row’ :
default :
$args = ‘row’;
foreach ( $tags as $tag ) {
$r .= _bb_row_tag_item( $tag, $args );
}
break;
}
echo $r;
}

function _bb_row_tag_item( $tag, $args ) {
$url = esc_url( bb_get_tag_link( $tag ) );
$name = esc_html( bb_get_tag_name( $tag ) );
if ( ‘row’ == $args ) {
$id = ‘tag-‘ . $tag->tag_id . ‘_’ . $tag->user_id;
return “t” . ‘‘ . $name . ‘‘ . “n”;
}
}
`

@hnla
It makes no sense to prove that it is better:) my plugin is being developed under my projects, it will evolve to a normal user, not a “how to calculate marketing .. You always have a choice – to use interface administrative panel of WordPress or normal and a lot of understandable for the user – the interface used by the theme …

I took BP Template Pack for a test spin a month or so ago, once, out of curiosity Some notes:

1. Need to make sure that you have ported the HTML div structure of original theme to template pack. Watch out for div iD’s and classes of content area and sidebar. There’s an error page on the link you provided. If I remember correctly from yesterday, it seems like you have not renamed the div surrounding your content and sidebar, otherwise the page layout would’ve looked like your regular pages even if the BP components were somewhat lacking in style

2. If you’ve disabled the BP Template Pack CSS in options, copy the styles available in https://svn.wp-plugins.org/bp-template-pack/tags/1.0.1/bp.css to your active theme’s style.css then adjust to taste

@chewbaker – assuming you’re using WP 3.0.1 and BP 1.2.5.2, deactivate all plugins except BuddyPress and then activate bp-default theme. If the errors do not disabpper then you have to give more info than what you posted.

Ok, so the problem is definitely with your custom theme.

I’ll jump out now… hopefully someone who’s worked with the template pack can pick up on this one

To help isolate the problem: what happens if you switch to the default BuddyPress theme – does everything work ok in that scenario?

p.s. your original post said you just see the old styled pages, but when I visit your page, it’s actually a 404 page error that shows

Use something like firebug in firefox or developer tools in safari to find the CSS selectors for your menu, logo and navbar elements.

Then dig out your CSS primer for details on how to set z-index levels on the appropriate selectors. You’ll need to set them in your css file – unfortunately, that will vary from theme to theme. If you can’t find it anywhere obvious, drop a support query to Woo themes.

Cool. Glad it works!

Paul, I have a similar issue. A registrant will click on the authentication email message and be taken to a white screen. Nothing happens. My server is running 64 MB of memory. Any words of advice?

I posted this in another thread on the topic, but I thought I would post it here too in case it helps anyone. I don’t know if this was anyone else’s issue, but this was my problem and the solution I found.

SET UP: Running BuddyPress on a single install (not MU) and using the default BuddyPress theme with an assortment of plugins (but removing all the plugins did not help my problem).

PROBLEM: jcrop function wouldn’t work after an avatar was uploaded either on the registration or edit avatar pages within buddypress. The image and thumbnail would show, but there was no crop box to change what was selected for the thumbnail. Very frustrating.

SOLUTION: stupidly simple once I finally found it – for some reason there was no link to the external jcrop javascript file appearing in the header of the pages! (This can be checked by viewing the page source of the problem pages via your browser) To fix this I edited the bp-core-cssjs.php file which is inside the bp-core folder inside buddypress. Right after this line:

`$aspect_ratio = (int) constant( ‘BP_AVATAR_FULL_WIDTH’ ) / (int) constant( ‘BP_AVATAR_FULL_HEIGHT’ ); ?>`

I added:

`<script src="/wp-includes/js/jcrop/jquery.Jcrop.js”>`

And now the crop tool is showing up and everything works perfectly! Note that you may need to change the path to the Jcrop.js file depending on your site setup. Before this I had also downloaded the latest version of jcrop from http://deepliquid.com/content/Jcrop.html and updated it on my site, so I don’t know if that plays in at all or not.

Again, don’t know if that helps anyone else, it might have been something quirky in my set up maybe, but it did the trick for me so I figured I’d share it just in case.

I don’t know anything about the woo theme aperture, but typically you could solve this sort of problem by setting appropriate z-index levels in your CSS file

You’ve not provided enough info on your file structure to provide help on this.

Clearly, from your screen grab, your own theme and not the default is being used, so it’s picking up on those files.

It might be an idea to list your full folder / file structure and also which amended file isn’t being picked up
