BuddyPress.org

You can create any home page you want and then choose that page in the admin.

With less than a day left now,there’s probably little value in putting the blog post up.

But, you can refer to these links for ideas.

Some things I’m excited to see:

An events component that doesn’t *require* bp-groups

Privacy that uses WordPress roles and capabilities

REST API

Inappropriate content flagging

User attachments

Surely there’s some WordPress plugins that do this? They ought to work with BuddyPress.

The siteurl and home (url) are required by BuddyPress to properly determine where it needs to look to find its various support files. So, that is why you could still access BP but the layout looked funky. BP could not resolve the path to the theme’s CSS files.

If you changed the url back to the original, proper path, it all should work now without any issues. Is that the case?

I assume that you were trying to provide your friend some assistance to a different issue. If you have a new issue, unrelated to this particular topic, please start a new thread and mark this one resolved.

By the way, for future reference, the topic you posted here is a WordPress issue and not a BuddyPress issue. That’s fine that you posted here, but if you have additional problems related to this particular issue, I’d suggest posting in the WordPress forums instead as most people here ignore issues that are not BuddyPress specific. I just happened to be looking at the right time!

Of course, if you have BuddyPress-specific issues, then post them in these forums.

Based on your description of where you were and what you did, I assume that your friend’s install is running WordPress and not WPMU (the multiuser version of WP). All is not lost.

You need to gain access to the backend of the MySQL database that is being used by WP. The easiest way to do this is via phpMyAdmin. Your friend’s hosting provider should have a version of phpMyAdmin. Your friend, or whomever created the MySQL instance for the WP install will have the username and password for the MySQL database–which is different than the one used for WP Admin access. If they don’t have it, you can find it in the wp-config.php file of the WP install.

Once you have access to the MySQL DB, you navigate to the wp_options table (the first two letters of the table name might be different). In that table, search for two entries: “siteurl” and “home”.

They should both be reset (this is what you did) to ventureforchange.com. You need to edit those two separate fields adding back the “/community ” reference. Of course, do not include the quotes.

Once that is done, try accessing the Admin dashboard again. It should now work.

if you use Group Forum Extras Plugin – i have a simple function in which you can wrap the ‘freshness’ col to the last post anchor

for the function code: “Link the freshness time_since to the last post”

I just registered a test user so I could replicate the issue and I noticed this difference in the subject lines:

[Girls Can&#039 ;t WHAT?] Activate Your Account (intentional space left in to demonstrate the error)

[Girls Can’t WHAT?] New User Registration

The new user registration notice is correct in the subject line (the sender is still displaying wrong, although it used to just say ‘WordPress’ for the sender name.)

So is this a buddypress issue or a wordpress issue?

Perhaps ask them if they can help you further or if they can write a plugin to make it work with wordpress/buddypress?

@Anointed » Connections (the whole pack) works perfectly with groups in my installation (latest BuddyPress, latest SINGLE WordPress). Facestream gave me headache though.

Did you copy the buddypress default theme or did you copy a wordpress theme?

Activity/forums etc have their own template files.

I’ve been considering the same thing. In my research here’s the list of plugins I needed to still evaluate. Not a perfect plugin I think for this, but one of these plugins should be able to easily be modified to do what you want if you know a little PHP and WP/BP. Otherwise, I’m planning to dive into it myself over the next couple months. I hope these links help:

I also had the welcome pack on my list since it does make sense to have this part of it also.

We’re hiring freelancers. We’re also working in Miami this month if you want to live that whole code on the beach lifestyle. Long list of projects that need to be completed.

I’d fill the small tasks list if there was one. Lets move on that asap!

Copy paste from an old post:

I propose that ma.tt create a premium service offering on wordpress.org. He should create a list of preferred service providers, pair them with module developers who need help, and let the community at large pay for support. all code is committed back to the plugin directly. Managed fixes and improvements, as well as a ‘certified’ list of ‘good’ plugins. Effectively, merge guru/elance/odesk with the popular list and an issue tracker.

Check out the Welcome Pack plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/welcome-pack

It might be cleaner to use the current_user_can function to test. Check out the Roles info on the WP Codex, specifically the table (it makes it easy to see what roles apply):

https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities#Capability_vs._Role_Table

To make it a little cleaner you could do the following:

function my_alter_bp_sidebar_login () {

if( current_user_can( 'edit_posts' ) ) {

printf( '<a href="%s" title="Dashboard">Dashboard</a>',(get_bloginfo( 'wpurl' ).'/wp-admin/') );

}

}

This would show the link for any user who can “edit_posts” which is basically anyone other than Subscriber.
