    Hello,

    I’m using BP 1.2.3 on a WordPress 2.9.2 install with the WP-FB-AutoConnect plugin.

    On registration, WP-FB-AutoConnect automatically set the user first_name and last_name and I like that. However, once registred users can not change these first_name and last_name when editing their BP profile.

    Is it possible to let members change the WP user data in adition the the BP profile fields ?

    On the profile page of each author on my blog, I want to show a link to all posts by a user.

    Okey, that part is easy. But I want to show something else, if the author has not yet made any posts, such as “This author has not made any posts yet”.

    At the moment, the link looks like this:

    “>Show all posts by <?php bp_user_fullname() ?>

    But if the user has not made any posts, they end up at the 404 page, which is a bit unprofessional.

    Is it possible to fix this with some nice coding?

    Any help highly appreciated.

    I am using WordPress MU and Buddypress (latest versions)

    Hi

    I’m having trouble with using custom fields in single.php.

    My problem is simple:

    In the “(Year) in (Category) by admin” section, I want to replace the “admin” part with a value from the key “Author-Alias” in that post’s custom fields.

    However, I don’t know PHP and thus I don’t know how to code it.

    Can anyone help me (please don’t say I should post in the WordPress forums because this is related to BuddyPress)?

    Hi everyone.

    I have been having upload avatar issues for about 6 months and have ignored/turned those features off. But, I want it fixed.

    I recently upgraded to the latest WordPress MU 2.9.2. and latest Buddypress Version 1.2.3. To give you the back story, these issues have been happening since before BP 1.2 but I am unable to fix it still.

    Here are my details about my system ( according to this http://buddypress.org/forums/topic/when-asking-for-support ):

    1. WordPress MU 2.9.2.

    2. Directory

    3. Root

    4. Yes, 2.8.6 I believe

    5. No

    6. 1.2.3

    7. 1.2.1

    8. A few plugins, but none that I can see conflicting

    9. They were customised but overwritten with latest install – so no.

    10. Slightly in regards to avatars not working

    11. no

    12. bbPress built-in

    13. Few errors but nothing that relates

    14. Hostmonster

    Images I upload through the UPLOAD function in admin are uploading correctly and are being made into the crops (150×150 and 300×200) – but with Avatar uploads (and groups and BP Album uploads) I am getting nowhere.

    I have recently had the issue where the crop box doesnt even show up SCREENSHOT- http://freelancerunplugged.com/files/crop-problems.jpg

    Previously, the error was like other people when they would click accept after cropping but nothing would happen.

    I have a feeling there are problems with my rewrite rules or file storage issues but I have been unable to fix the problem using various posts on this topic. Also, please note that I do not have access to MISCELLANEOUS in the Settings area due to using WPMU.

    The website in question is http://freelancerunplugged.com

    Can someone please walk me through problem solving so I can finally get avatars back on my site (that arent from Gravatar) and so I can allow my users to upload pictures.

    Did you try is_home() instead?

    https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags

    The above link suggests that it should be is_front_page() but given how bp-default is playing around with that setting in the backened, you might need to check is_home()

    Thanks @3sixty — after much head-wringing and a little tweak, I got your code to work perfectly:

    <?php if (get_usernumposts( bp_current_user_id() ) > 0) echo " | Blog posts: " . get_usernumposts( bp_current_user_id() ); ?>

    In the process I learned that “get_usernumposts()” has been deprecated in WordPress 3.0, so when that comes out I assume I’ll have to change this to work with the replacement function, “count_user_posts()”

    @Modemlooper – as stwc posted above, he wanted a front page other than c) A WordPress Page

    Actually, not really — I just want to show one of the other default BP site sections — forums or blogs or members. But if this is a general solution that also includes that ability to do that, even better.

    There are WP plugins that will auto-create a WordPress post from each item in an RSS feed as it happens (well, cron schedule notwithstanding, I guess, or something like that). I kind of hate Facebook, so I’m not sure, but are there RSS streams generated by the appropriate activity there?

    Or, come to think of it, if there were an RSS stream from Facebook, you could just use Andy’s External Group Blogs plugin and pull the RSS items into an activity stream for a group, as well.

    [Latest BP 1.2.3, latest WordPressMU]

    My users are reporting that they can post unicode content (text in other languages) in the Activity streams, but it gets stripped to ‘???????? ?????’ in forum posts. I’ve confirmed with Korean and Japanese text.

    Is this one a known bug? Couldn’t find this specific issue with a search here… any ideas on how to fix it (or if other people are having the same problem)? Not a tier-1 issue for me, but it seems like it might be important for installs in non-English environments.

    Thank you for the info.

    In our case, yes we would want all the updates from facebook to post to the blog.

    We have a number of missionaries around the world who post to facebook. I was thinking of creating a subdomain blog for each missionary. That way when they post to facebook it would automatically show up on their blog.

    Now a normal person would say, ‘why not just post the blog article and have it pushed to facebook’?

    Well, say I have 20 church websites that all support the same missionary. Instead of him having to post to all 20 church blogs, he could post to facebook, and I could have all 20 blogs auto updated for him.

    Obviously this is a very specific example, but it would work the same for many concepts.

    anyhow, I had not even thought of a wordpress app for facebook. I’ll go dig around and find me one.

    thanks again

    I’ve never seen one (although there might be), but the challenge I have is understanding what from Facebook you’d want to create the post on the blog. Would you want someone’s wall post to be added to the blog? That doesn’t make much since to me. Would you want a Facebook Note to be added to your blog?

    The other option is to add the WordPress app (and there are probably a number of these out there) to your Facebook account. I think a Facebook WordPress app would be able to post to your blog and to Facebook at the same time. At least I think there are 2 way Facebook apps like this.

    The problem:

    After a vanilla install of WordPress 2.9.2, and an automatic install of BP 1.2.3, when I navigate to some sections of the WP admin section (including Add New plugins, and General settings) the Buddypress Admin navbar gets whited out, and the pages don’t finish loading – so, for example, on the General settings page there is no way to submit changes, and on the Add New plugins the collection of plug-in tags doesn’t get loaded.

    It doesn’t seem to be affecting the operation of the site in any other way, so I can live with it by fixing changes I want in General settings in the database instead – but it’s a bit worrying.

    Any ideas as to what might be causing it would be gratefully received…:-)

    I’ve uninstalled and re-installed a couple of times, and have got exactly the same thing every time so far.

    I’ve found many facebook plugins where we can make a post and have it pushed to facebook.

    Are there any plugins that would create a post on my wordpress blog every time I post to facebook?

    I found one that would sync the activity streams of facebook and buddypress, but that is not quite what I am looking for. If I can find one that creates new posts automatically then the activity stream would automatically be updated.

    For the first part, what version of WordPress are you using?

    Secondly, you can edit the sign up text by using a language file:

    https://codex.buddypress.org/how-to-guides/customizing-labels-messages-and-urls/

    Or by creating a child theme and modifying the registration templates.

    I’m not posting this as a support question because I don’t think it’s a buddypress or wordpress issue. I’ve had people try to register at two different sites (http://www.openadoptionsupport.com and http://www.supportforspecialneeds.com) hosted by two different hosts (OAS is at bluehost and SfSN is a virtualmin server at itx). When comcast users try to register, they don’t get an email and they don’t show up in the database (or the dashboard but that’s a given since they’re not in the database). I’ve tried changing the admin email thinking that was it but the deeper we got into it, the more we realized this isn’t on our end.

    So I’m just curious. anyone else noticed this? Also at what point does WordPress create the account? At first I thought that comcast was just blocking the email but now with no record of a registration at all, I’m thinking the email isn’t even getting sent, which is why I thought it was a buddypress/wordpress glitch. But we can only replicate this with comcast and not that it’s happening on two totally different installs, I think it’s a wacky comcast issue.

    Weird, eh?

    @jivany – yup :-)

    @Modemlooper – as stwc posted above, he wanted a front page other than c) A WordPress Page

    Should one want to continue in that vein (via Settings > Reading > static home page), instead of creating the special template file home.php, he can:

    1. Create a Page template, e.g. page-home.php and paste 2.a. or 2.b. within and upload to server.

    2. Create a page called Home using the page template and publish.

    3. Go to Settings > Reading > Static home page and choose Home.

    4. Delete the link (forums or blogs or groups) from header.php navigation div to avoid duplication

    Just testing out Buddypress but basic functionality in WP mu isn’t working as there is no association between the member’s blog pages and the “Blogs” links in the tags in the default theme….

    In this test site http://solarpowernewsonline.com/

    “activities” seem to work but most of the links simply do not link to the blogs or a listing of blogs as you’d assume- none of the blogs tabs work, more don’t from from the child blogs than the administrator’s blogs.

    I’m using the blogs.domain.com format rather than domain.com/blog format but that should be considered (it is taken care of in WordPress Mu without Buddypress).

    I’ve tried every option but there seems no setting to associate “Blogs” with “Blogs” as naturally you’d assume you shouldn’t need to!

    What can I be doing wrong?

    Have a look at wp polls instead, in my opinion a very nice and customizable poll system. It includes a widget.

    https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-polls/

    Edit: I just found that automatic install of the plugin does not seem to work. However install and using it right out of the box works fine for me when uploaded by FTP, in WPMU 2.9.2 with BP default theme. There are also some theme related issues: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/358769

    It’s for the next version of this website: http://www.artmonastery.org

    It’s for a network of artists. Each blog will be a specific art project, and each subscriber/author will be an artist participating in that art project. Many artists will be participating in many different art projects, and I’d like their bio information to be publicly displayed on each blog/project.

    The blogs will be the public “portal” for each of the art projects, which we will us to promote the projects. The groups that are associated with each blog (with the group blog plugin) will be the internal communication tool for the artists.

    I’d like all the subscribers/authors/etc (aka artists) for a given blog (aka art project) to be listed at the top of the blog’s index.php page, with a few fields from the xprofile (bio, specialty, etc.). Ideally, I’d get them to echoed in a way that was easy to feed into a snazzy jquery slider gizmo.

    artists.

    I’m trying to build a resource for these artists that is really 1 database with many faces, and given that I love wordpress, buddypress seemed like the best way to do that. It’s just stretching my abilities, at the moment ;)

    Uninstall your copy of WordPress and install a new copy of WordPress MU (Multi-User).

    WordPress MU allows each member to have his own blog. You need to set up blog domains first, though. For more instructions on setting up multiple blogs, read the WordPress MU readme.

    BuddyPress will automatically set this up for you if it detects that you have WordPress MU installed.
