    Hi,
    I am new to BuddyPress but do a bit of WordPress stuff, this is only a hobby and I create some themes and tutorials.

    I installed BuddyPress and have created a twenty ten child theme, it is cheating a bit as I use the sliding menu plugin, modified it slightly for the child theme, rather than merging the menu code.

    Well I have it working, and sort of styled to twenty ten, it is here as a download if anyone wants to have a look.

    http://digitalraindrops.net/2010/08/twenty-ten-add-buddypress/

    Thanks for looking and any feedback is welcomed.

    Hello,

    I am in need of some help with 2 plugins for my wordpress/buddypress site, My site is aimed at kids aged 8-16 years old, as my daughter went on holiday with granparents, when she returned she wanted to use a well know social media site to keep in contact with her friends, worried about the content exposed to her i decided to have ago at creating my own, I am a Computer hardware/software engineer but not a programmer, I have tried all the social media script out there but when i found WordPress/Buddy press i loved it and have been using it for some time.

    I need 2 thing for my site,
    1. i need a plugin for the registration/activation process that sends and e-mail to a parent/carer email address entered at sign up informing the parent/carer thier son daughter has joined my social network site, with a customizable e-mail template.
    2. when Date of Birth is entered i would like a plugin that refuses registration if date of birth works out to be younger or older that 8-16

    I know regardless of what security you put in place you can not 100% stop wiredos trying to sign up but i am implementing the CEOP panic buttons throughout so kids can report inapropriate behaviour striaght to authorities, and i have knowledge as a parent to use discretion on content posted to the site, i can then make dessisions on weather to remove a user, i am also creating a parents section so if parents are worried they can contact us and we can look into thier childs content within the site. Parents can also use the CEOP button to report worrying behaviour. The loca media has also taken great interest in my project and are willing to give me interviews once the site is up and running as i want it,

    Unfortunatly i don’t have much money to spend on this project as i fell ill a year ago and i have been unable to work since, i have started this project now and i want to see it through, you never know it may become famous lol, i am also looking into ways of making my site more entertaining.

    Thank you for taking the time to read this and any suggestions or help is much appreciated

    Regards

    @jmarino:
    Well, there’s a plugin to restrict group creation. I’d start there: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-restrict-group-creation/

    In the settings, you can auto-demote group creators to mods, so that’s good for what you mention. You can also separately determine who can make a public, private or hidden group. It doesn’t have a setting to restrict somebody who meets the threshold from creating more than one group, though. You’d have to work around that. Also, it has settings like minimum number of days as a member (of your BP site in general) before qualifying to create a group, but nothing built in that’d handle maximum number of days as a mod and then demote automatically.

    Honestly? You’re looking for very specific and limited functionality. Since you already plan to manually add any additional mods, I’d consider just getting the necessary info from the user when s/he signs up for VIP membership, manually creating the group in the first place (use the Restrict plugin to keep anybody but a site admin from being able to do so), inviting the VIP member to join, and then setting him/her (and any friends) as mod.

    As for the 1 year demotion, I’d just use a good calendar and set up an electronic reminder.

    Low tech and not very automated, but that really seems like the route you’ll end up needing to go, unless you (or someone else) wants to create a fair bit of custom code–something you probably won’t find people offering to do for free.

    …

    Not to be a total downer, but I’m having a bit of trouble imagining what enticement mod status would offer. Maybe I just haven’t toyed with it enough to see its utility in managing forums, but it doesn’t seem to provide much control over the group, at least…

    Using WordPress 3.0.1 and Buddypress 1.2.5.

    After a member signs up, they get a confirmation email, which they click on and are directed to sign in. But new members are also instructed with the following message:

    Activate your Account

    Please provide a valid activation key.
    Activation Key: ___________

    This can be ignored and new members are still signed up. Does anyone know what generates this message? Sorry if this is a repeat but I can’t find a solution.

    Curious. I was convinced I had a similar problem, as I noticed one user marked spammer and then created my own test user but never received the activation email. HOWEVER, I just tried again using a gmail address instead of hotmail, and I got the activation email just fine. Suppose I’ll keep messing with this and check back in…..

    I’m trying to use/test the Welcome Pack in particular, so….we’ll see.

    Search for a plugin and then you will need to replace the navigation links in your header.php file with the code to call the plugins drop down menu. You can also add support for wp menus and then do the css or javascript coding to make it drop down.

    Hi, I see that the wordpress menu selection doesn’t work with buddypress, so whats the simplest way to add drop-down menu to the default theme navigation tabs?

    If you relied a lot on the BP 1.0 or 1.1 theme structure, then you’d need to install the BP Backwards Compatibility plugin:
    https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-backwards-compatibility/

    I should note I have no experience using this plugin whatsoever.

    hnla is right; if your theme isn’t too custom, I would recommend building a new child theme of the bp-default.

    Hi All,

    I was browsing the WordPress Addon website and came accross this plugin. At the moment; everything I am searching for is currently supported by BuddyPress, which is great; because I thought I would originally have to combine a number of components.

    One thing, however, that I can’t seem to find is this:

    What I am looking for is the ability to view statistics on the custom profile fields I will add to my system. For example; BuddyPress would allow me to add custom fields, but what if I wanted statistics on these fields. If I had a custom field that allowed my users to choose their favourite colour from a dropdown list, would I be able to see (graphically or otherwise) how many chose blue, red, orange etc.?

    Thanks,
    Steve

    Hey All,
    Im using WordPress 3.0.1 with BuddyPress 1.2.5.2. I have used the WP-FB-AutoConnect to allow users to login using their facebook accounts and it works absolutely fine. However my issue is that I want users who login for the first time (those who login through the facebook connect) to go first to their profile page and fill out the additional details in their profile and update their facestreem and tweetsream settings. Any idea how to do this?
    Your help would be MUCH MUCH appreciated.

    Hi everyone,

    Just activated Buddypress, but the default theme isn’t showing up in Theme Manager – can anyone help? :)

    Okay, so now it’s happened again – only this time it’s someone that I know that I trust implicitly so I’m really confused. Take a look here and you’ll see that her avatar has taken over all of the group avatars: http://hooping.org/wordpress/groups

    Any idea what is going on?

    This plugin kind of does it:

    https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-forum-extras/other_notes/

    as long as you follow the instructions under “Activity on Topic Posts”

    Although it doesn’t actually show up as a forum “reply” like usual it looks like an activity update on the forum post here:

    http://avatarthelastairbenderonline.com/groups/news-and-feedback/forum/topic/suggestion-thread/

    You can see an example of what it looks like near the bottom of the thread.

    I have recently started using buddypress with wordpress 3.0.1 . I have installed it and also been able to get the feature I want incorporated.

    However I have noticed an issue with buddypress. That it’s not very intuitive to the end user. When a user registers, it takes them to upload avatar page, which is great, however, as soon as user uploads avatar. It does nothing interesting or intuitive.

    In my opinion the after the avatar is uploaded it should give a good notification to the user to say that “You need to activate your account” or redirect them somewhere.

    Also the user is hanging on the upload picture page.

    I am wondering is there any plug in or hack that will let user know that their account needs to be verified is they try to log in without verification.?

    Also is it possible to redirect the user to some page after registration.

    Any help would be appreciated. I have Drupal CMS as my background, but need wordpress & buddypress for a friends site.

    Don’t start deleting stuff at this stage, it unnecessarily drastic. Earlier you answered yes to setting permalinks so I’m assuming that you didn’t get a message informing you that it couldn’t be written and showing you the code that would need t be added manually.

    I would have a read through this page in the WP codex:

    https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks

    and see if any of that helps before deleting stuff or looking at other areas.

    Hi ,

    Since i upgraded to wordpress 3 and latest version of buddypress and latest version of wp-fb-autoconnnect I cannot overide my avatar from within BP. It lets me upload a new one through BP but still shows the facebook one. I can only upload a new one if i de-activate the plugin. Help i have cross users.

    #88125

    When I look at the directories in the site there is only the wordpress directories and none of the directories that buddypress is looking for when you hover over buttons (www.whatever.com/activity/) activity/ does not exist. Its like buddypress plugin installed in plugin directory but did not install needed items. At least that is what it looked like…

    Plugin is buddypress 1.2.5.2

    Please Help
