Topic: Plugin help for my project
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 8-16I 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
David Simpson
SnetkidsI’m trying to find an easy way to get the name for a user without having to scroll through all the xprofile fields. This is easy if the user is logged in ($bp->loggedin_user->fullname), but in this case I want to get the name of a different user to that I can display it for the logged in user.
I could use the WordPress functions to get the display_name:
$user_info = get_userdata($referring_user_id);
$referring_user = $user_info->display_name;
But the display_name is just the username and not the value in the name field.Any ideas on how to get this?
I’ve ran the Buddypress Template Pack plugin on a number of standard WordPress thems and it has always worked fine, but for some reason the back end pages still always say “you will need to activate a Buddypress compatible theme.” Is this just an overlooked detail on Buddypress’ part because it always works fine, but this message still appears.
Topic: Group Avatar on this site
Hello,
Trying to upload a group avatar for my plugin group here, and I get bounced to
http://buddypress.org/community/groups/transposh-translation-filter-for-wordpress/admin/group-avatarWhich is an empty page.
Tried multiple browsers. Anyone else sees that?
Hi, I’m new to WordPress and Buddypress. I’d like to make the profile picture (avatar) a required part of login. Is there a good plugin or theme to address this? Otherwise, do I need to edit the code, and if so, what file? Also, how can I change the dimensions of the profile picture? I’d like it to be a portrait rather than square. Thanks,
Topic: Pages not found
Please forgive me, I’m an educator trying to get BuddyPress to replicate some of what I used to do with a Ning network, and I’m having some trouble.
You can view my site at uconnlatin.classicalfieldwork.com; my regular blog is at classicalfieldwork.com.
I am running WP3.1, with Multisite enabled.
As you can see if you look at my site, none of my links go anywhere – it’s all just “Page not found.” I looked at the information here (http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network), but I’m not sure what exactly I should be changing, and I’m really worried about messing up something for my main, non-BP site.
Thanks so much to this great community for any help you can give me!
When trying to view my BuddyPress (1.2.5.2) / WordPress (3.0) website on Safari (5.0) browser it seems to have problems loading the permalinks on the first try. If I click on a link, for example “edit profile” (www.website.com/user/profile/edit), it immediately loads a blank page….however, if I then click the refresh button after it’s “loaded” the blank page – it loads the intended page just fine…
Any ideas?
Just watched this video on wordpress.tv and I liked it. I already know more about BP but several new things to me were brought to my attention:

Hello,
I believe I found a bug. I recently upgraded WordPress and Buddypress and if you do the following, you will find out that the homepage will not load.
1. Register a user account and create a blog.
2. Activate the account.
3. Access the blog’s dashboard.
4. View the blog.
5. Now, try to go to the site’s homepage.As you will see, when you try to access the homepage, it will come up blank. The only way to solve this problem is to either wait a while or access the admin dashboard. The homepage will not load up but you can access control panels and blogs. It’s weird.
Topic: Buddypress + Feedburner
How should I write the htaccess so that everyone that for example writes http://mysite.com in Google Reader will be redirected to http://feeds.feedburner.com/mysite, inclusive the Site Activity feed.
I looked at this blogpost (http://perishablepress.com/press/2008/03/25/redirect-wordpress-feeds-to-feedburner-via-htaccess-redux/) but couldn’t make the regular expression right.
Or does it exist a Feedburner-plugin suitable for a Buddypress-installation?
