BuddyPress.org

There are two popular solutions for regular WordPress (not sure how they would work with BuddyPress… I guess they would only translate the blog portion of the site). The two options are WPMU and qTranslate. WPMU make a separate post for each language while qTranslate puts all languages in one post separated by special comment tags. I found the management of a WMPU blog to be confusing. qTranslate has a simple tabbed user interface… so within your edit page for your posts… you get a tab for each language.

Exact same problem as described.
I did a clean 1.2.3 install running on WordPress MU 2.9.2. I followed the how-to as presented on this page, and changed the permalinks setting to something other than default.

A .htaccess file is indeed created, and the buddypress installation does run. However, when I try to visit the about page or the members page, I get a 404 error stating the page doesn’t exist. The link is correct (http://localhost.localdomain/wpmu/members/ i.e.) , but it simply doesn’t show anything.
I can’t visit a members profile either, it simply stops everywhere outside the mainpage.

I’m using the default Buddypress theme btw, nothing changed on my side.

First of all, we may need more information. If what I suggest below does not resolve your issue, then please answer these questions: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/when-asking-for-support/

The error message that you have posted is strange. BuddyPress does not have a file called bp-cores.php. You mentioned that you made some file modifications. Did you open up the file bp-loader.php? I would look in that file on line 19 to see if you accidentally added an “s” to bp-core. Line 19 should read:

require_once( WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/buddypress/bp-core.php' );


If you see that there is an “s” but you are sure that you did not change it yourself, I would suggest deactivating then deleting BuddyPress. Then redownload BuddyPress and reinstall. Make sure your are downloading BuddyPress from this site

Finally, when trying to debug BuddyPress, always use the default theme and deactivate all other plugins. You need to isolate what is happening within BuddyPress.

This plugin claims to do the job. It claims to be easy as well.

WPML’s showcase includes samples of blogs, full websites and even multilingual BuddyPress portals.

I’d like to know how to extend it to the activity feed as well as bbPress. I have bbPress integrated with WordPress and the users’ first names are appearing instead of their usernames.

I finally sat down and read through the whole discussion. Some great points. I don’t know how possible it would be to do this, but what about multiple streams? @Sadr made a great point that the activity stream should have elements that users could subscribe to or not subscribe to. Right now there is one stream that either has too much information or doesn’t have the right kind of information. With multiple streams, each of which could be put on a different page or within a different area on a main page, the information flow could be tailored by each site designer and user to serve their needs and the needs of their communities.

Another point that was brought up was navigation, now I know that this is partially the theme setup, but in a default install even if a user is redirected to their groups, it is still another click away to a the groups wiki, blog, forum or documents or whatever your groups are based around. It needs to be easier to place the sub areas of a Buddypress site where you want them. Maybe the new menus in WP 3.0 address this (I haven’t had a chance to play with them much) but navigation needs to have small blocks that can be quickly and easily rearranged in order to design navigation paths that fit your community. And navigation is all about menus; activity streams are a form of navigation if they send you quickly to the information you are interested in. Couldn’t the profile, for example, be more widget ready so that either admins or users could pick and choose the pieces they want (think iGoogle).

@Peterverkooijen made a good point about members profile / privacy. It is possible to do it now to a certain extent, but this needs to be easier and more comprehensive.

As many people said the users are who are important and poor UI will drive people away, but Buddypress is used in such a wide variety of situations, that it needs to be easy to customize for each communities needs. To use an analogy I don’t want Buddypress to be like Moodle, for example; if you’ve seen one Moodle site you’ve seen 98% of all Moodle sites. The strength of WordPress is the ease with which one can customize not just the functionality but the looks and UI of the site, let’s not lose that.

Well, you are probably talking about WP 3.0. Not surprised the entire Web does not work with 3.0 yet.

WP-United has been around for a long time and is now a very mature software package so I would be surprised if it did not work with the stated specs:

Tested with: WordPress 2.9.x & phpBB 3.0.6

Try that to hide parts of posts until users log in,

Tried it, doesn’t work with recent wordpress and recent phpBB, let alone buddypress.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-documents/ is awesomesauce.

Try replacing “template_url” with “stylesheet_directory”.

https://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/bloginfo

You can create a nwew page in the wp backend and use a custom template for it (you can find information on how to do that in the wordpress.org codex). At the top of that template file (before the function get_header()) you can put something like this:

`global $bp;

if( ! is_user_logged_in() )
bp_core_redirect( $bp->root_domain .’/’. BP_REGISTER_SLUG .’/’ );`

There are a number of threads on this topic.
