Topic: potential bug found
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.
The ms field update Paul talks about is found here:

I have now changed my username but I have no idea how I was hacked. I was already using login lockdown. And, through ‘login log’ I can see failed login attempts, of which there were none. So it wasn’t a brute force attempt – I’m thinking I have a loophole somewhere
Hi hnla, thanks for the response. Yes to all your questions except that I was not aware that localhost is a loopback address. So I should have typed in my website address where it ask me what was my url and where to put wordpress? I suspect that is where I messed up. I there anything I can do? Or should I just start all over again?
Thanks in advance, Fernando
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?
Hi everyone, I’m very impressed with the ease of the installation of WordPress and Buddypress. I need some help, I’m stumped! I did a clean install of WordPress 3.0.1 with Buddypress 1.2.5.2 with no problems from start to finish. I’m not a super tech I just happen to stumble upon this project and was drawn to it… All links work I can even add groups. But when I type in my url from a neighbors computer,smartphone, etc. I get a BLANK page? I have not activated any plugins yet. I installed it on my home server. I installed it to http://localhost/wordpress/ . Can someone help me? What am I missing?
Thanks in Advance, Fernando in Texas
When I tried to access the example.com/blogs I got redirected to the mainpage. I read here that the solution is to create a network then when I created one the blogs appeared but all members where member to the base installed blog which is your wordpress site prior to the installment of BP. If a solution could just be pass regarding this…someone????
Topic: Business Directory Plugin
I am looking for a BP plugin to create a business directory. I used to have one on my old wordpress but not sure if compatible. I need these features. Simple form to fill out of company name, location, description, email and website link. (maybe a photo if possible) It should also have a search feature by categlory (I,e restauraunts, shopping, home improvement ect..) Would also be nice if companies can pay though paypal. I wish I remembered my old plugin’s name but it had these features I think. It can be backend where I ad it in or front end. There are only a a thousand of businesses, so I wouldn’t mind entering it myself if need be.

@wandilly, Did you get your problem resolved yet? If not, I’d be glad to help do detective work on it. I’d need a login though, so if you feel comfortable giving me access, you’d want to share that by private email. You can contact me at marian@heartwoodwebdesign.com.
MarianHey all
I’m on the home stretch of getting my WP+BP site officially opened, and thought I’d post it here for critique. The idea of the site is a BP based community of buyers and sellers of crafts and “work-at-home-mom” (WAHM) made items, as well as hosting for WAHM shops using WP 3.0.1 in multiuser mode.
http://www.clothunderground.com
The Community: based on Buddypress. Pretty self explanatory.
The Shops: each shop is a child blog of the main site. I’m using WP Custom CSS to allow users to make cosmetic changes to the Blix theme, and eShop for the eCommerce solution. WordPress seems pretty overwhelming to my users, so I’ve also written a custom library of tutorials (in the footer of the main site pages). I haven’t yet found a plugin that makes the hosting term payment/shop creation process automated, so I’m doing that manually at this time.
Extras: I know that I haven’t really done much in the way of customizing the default BP theme, but it’s only because I’ve been busy doing functional customizations…
* The Street: I’m using the main site’s blog function as a classifieds post for members to buy/sell their used items on (a very popular feature for this type of audience). I’ve used Adminimize to limit what the users see on the add post screen, custom fields that allow them to enter URLs to 4 remotely hosted images (Photobucket), disabled file (image) uploading to keep my disk space, and another plugin to keep them from seeing everyone else’s posts in the admin panel post list.
* Member Feedback System: It’s important on a site like this that buyers and sellers can leave feedback for one another with details on how the transaction went for others to see. I pieced something together (see the ridiculous process here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/any-plugin-similar-to-ebays-user-feedback-member-rating-feedback) that seems like it will work beautifully! Check out the “feedback” button on my test user’s profile: http://www.clothunderground.com/members/test
* Customized Groups Page: I just pieced this together the best I could. Nothing else out there was working for my audience, who are more often than not coming from vBulletin based sites. Buddypress’ group/forum system is still uber confusing for them, but this was the best I could do.
* Sitewide Search: Using the Sitewide Search Pages plugin, I’ve created a child blog that pulls in info on posts published across the CU network. Shoppers are able to search using the form in the header, and browse a list of all CU shop items matching their search. There’s also a wordpress.com style tags page that displays all tags used in item posts sitewide, for a different shopping experience.
* CU Points: I’m using Cubepoints and CP Buddypress integration to award points to members for activity. Normal members can use theirs to buy anything that anyone (in a CU shop or on The Street) is selling for points, and shop owners can use points to purchase featured shop ad space or up to 20% off of their hosting fees.
Anyway, please check it out and let me know what you think! Small changes might be happening throughout the day, but it’s pretty much ready for the world right now!
Is that ‘Line 4’ custom? I don’t see it in a functions file for a 1.2.5.2 I’ve just test upgraded.
Generally – and it’s not advise necessarily to follow
– I have never had an issue with upgrading the WP portion of a site and don’t tend to bother deactivating any plugins; I do though take a backup, ALLWAYS, on production sites prior to proceeding.@djpaul: I will from now on always disable all the plugins.
Where can I disable the groups component through the FTP?Fatal error: Call to undefined function bp_group_is_admin() in /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/functions.php on line 4¨
What should I change on the line 4? – if( bp_group_is_admin() || is_super_admin() ) {
