A social network in a box, build a social network for your company, school, sports team or niche community.OneCommunity is a BuddyPress WordPress theme for community websites or else. This nice template offers a bunch of useful and advanced features such as full bbPress integration, color and layout variants, translation readiness and many more. With OneCommunity you have the option to create social networks for all kinds of purposes e.g. company, school, sports team or niche community. That way you can bring people sharing the same interests together. You do not need coding skills or knowledge and can still operate your website like rtc logistics tracking with ease and simplicity.

Just my opinion and just an AI translation:

Where are the sticking points?

BP core:
After 9 months with BP and several free BP plugins, there are still a lot of questions. Group handling and invitation are too complex and partly illogical. (Example: Group Owner is allowed to remove himself and then the administrator has to ‘intervene’). Furthermore, internal e-mail, where you have to select users based on their usernames (@…). Also not visually appealing and sometimes rather confusing in use. Other BP features (sorting/displaying members within groups!) that don’t work even on a WP default theme (Twenty Twenty-Two). Just annoying!

In principle, the core plugin provides too little (in terms of functionality). Best example: Blogging and media. Something that defines WP at its core. In addition to two larger commercial “BP providers” and some ancient plugins in the WP repo, the selection and comparability is difficult if you want to use them for specific rights and groups. I understand that you want to offer an open and expandable system, but something “more” would be desirable or necessary.

BP mailing list:
Hardly any actions, but many (trivial) questions and no answers. On the other hand, technically interesting answers are often 10 years or more in the past (and unfortunately still up-to-date in principle), but where there is no attempt to test them in a current BP version.

ToDo (Plugins into Core):
Directory: Very important! Of course you can use “BP Custom Fields” but there’s no option to do a filter search, based on different fields to exclude displaying other profiles – or I just can’t find the options. Tried “BP Profile Search”

Why not just embed a few components “more tightly” into the core, why not simply take over the source code of others who simply “copy” BP themselves without returning anything to the community? There was an interesting discussion about this recently on another platform site.

Wishes:
– Rights management for pages/posts or for individual BP components (either private/public or at user level) – e.g. “User Access Manager”
– E-mail communication between each other without having to use the real e-mail address and being able to leave the borders of BP – e.g. “BP Reply By Email”

It’s a pity, but currently STILL not enough for uncomplicated use and sometimes stopped in development. In addition, commercial providers who copy BP as well as other WP Social Media Group solutions that are more complete and appear more self-contained.

To name a few plugins that could be partially included:

Theme: BuddyX (free)
BP 11 (dev) &
BP Attachments (dev) (what does it do? Substitution of BuddyDrive?)
– bbPress (smarter integration)
– BP Profile Search (no filter options found)
– BP Reply By Email (should be core as option)
– BuddyDrive (should be Core)
– Buddpress Docs
– BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types (should be core)
– BuddyPress Xprofile Conditional Fields (should be core)
– Rendez Vous (should be core as option)
– “BuddyPress XY Blog” (should be core)
– “BuddyPress XY Search”

Hello @honoluluman

I am facing the same problem.
My website is on Japanese language (ja) in the frontend and I get the url of invitations component like that /members/user/招待状/ (with the ja translation).
And I get the same problem on Simplified Chinese (zh_CN : /members/user/邀请/).

I was looking for a solution and found it here.
I don’t have a solution, but I want to let you know that there are languages and users who have the same problem.

Thank you.

try loco translate plugin for string translation

HI…nice to find your topic…;)

I found the string in the .pot file….but how to translate it? i use locotranslate..i have a german translation…but i dont find the string in the german ttranslation???

What am i not getting?? Thanks for support…

@vapvarun

I use a child Theme of Reign Theme. Now, I don’t want to use any additional plugins because I already have 36 plugins on my website.

The text of Gravatar calls, has hard-coded links as seen here:

<p class="bp-feedback info">
		<span class="bp-icon" aria-hidden="true"></span>
		<span class="bp-help-text">
			<?php
			/* Translators: %s is used to output the link to the Gravatar site */
			printf( esc_html__( 'Your profile photo will be used on your profile and throughout the site. If there is a %s associated with your account email we will use that, or you can upload an image from your computer.', 'buddypress' ),
				/* Translators: Url to the Gravatar site, you can use the one for your country eg: https://fr.gravatar.com for French translation */
				'<a href="' . esc_url( __( 'https://gravatar.com', 'buddypress' ) ) . '">Gravatar</a>'
			); ?>
		</span>
	</p>

I will like to edit all these texts directly and remove the Gravatar link without breaking things.

How do I do that?
Regards

to change text, you can use a translation file

I was able to alter text using loco translate
to change image dimension, you will need the above approach.

It´s been a while, but I am dealing with something similar now. So that might help…

Say what?

That seems to be the easiest way to add some missing translations. After installation you can find the plugin in WordPress under “Tools”. In my case I translated the Original-String “Engagements” with the Textdomain “buddypress”.
