Topic: Translation PT-BR
Hi everyone …
i’m running bp 1.2.2.1 on wordpress 2.9.2 everything works fine (almost) but my site is in portuguese!
being that i don’t want to wait for a bp translation i decided to update the theme i was running (the buddypress part) , by translating it direct from the php code of my child theme (don’t know any other way to do it)
my problem now is that when i insert accent in words such as café or words with ç or ó or ã and such, it shows all crazy on the front end!
for example- http://brasilcanadasite.ca/activity
if you go to the drop down menu (sorry it’s all in portuguese) and you’re using firefox you’ll see a few question marks and if it’s on explorer you’ll see squares!
I’ve googled it EVERYWHERE with no success, i’m not a total noob but this is killing me!
thanks all!
Alex
BuddyPress 1.2.2.1
Wordpress 2.9.2 (single blog, not MU) and am using
BuddyPress Template Pack 1.0.2
The probelm is that whilst I can access the generic pages all work correctly: –
Activity: http://www.sitedomain.com/activity/
Members: http://www.sitedomain.com/members/
Groups: http://www.sitedomain.com/groups/
Forums: http://www.sitedomain.com/forums/
Register: http://www.sitedomain.com/register/
Pages that relate to a specific user do not work. For example: –
For user name ‘User Name’ the link is – http://www.sitedomain.com/members/user-name/activity/
These pages simply redirect to the homepage.
I have read somwhere that usernames that contain spaces can cause problems, but as I understand it this has been resoloved.
Can anyone give me any pointers as to how to trouble shoot this, or suggestions as to the cause? Any and all help appreciated.
Currently using the recent version of WordPress (2.9.2) and BuddyPress (1.2.2.1) and I’m working on using Buddy Press to develop a community that may not want their activity streams replied to on their activity streams. Is it possible to remove replies to all activity streams?
I know you can remove them for forum posts and blog posts, but I would like to remove them entirely.
I am continuing to work on my custom theme based on the BuddyPress Default 1.2.2.1 theme and I have been able to add customized widget page templates for the homepage based on Sarah Gooding’s tutorial on WPMU.org:
http://wpmu.org/how-to-widgetize-a-page-post-header-or-any-other-template-in-wordpress/
I assumed that since that worked like a charm that I could get an alternate sidebar working on certain pages, but I just can’t get it to work. No matter what I do with any custom page template, the default sidebar is always shown. What am I doing wrong?
What php code should I use to call the alternate sidebar?
Do I have to create a whole new [second version] of sidebar.php as in sidebar2.php or custom-sidebar.php?
Here is one version of my custom-page template with the working top and bottom widget areas and the alternate sidebar that is displaying the default sidebar:
<?php
/*
Template Name: Custom 2
*/
?>
<?php get_header() ?>
<div id="content">
<div class="padder">
<?php do_action( 'bp_before_blog_home' ) ?>
<div class="page" id="blog-latest">
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar("widgetized-page-top-2") ) : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<?php do_action( 'bp_before_blog_post' ) ?>
<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<div class="author-box">
<?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_meta( 'user_email' ), '50' ); ?>
<p><?php printf( __( 'by %s', 'buddypress' ), bp_core_get_userlink( $post->post_author ) ) ?></p>
</div>
<div class="post-content">
<h2 class="posttitle"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php _e( 'Permanent Link to', 'buddypress' ) ?> <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<div class="entry">
<?php the_content( __( 'Read the rest of this entry →', 'buddypress' ) ); ?>
</div>
<p class="postmetadata"><span class="tags"><?php the_tags( __( 'Tags: ', 'buddypress' ), ', ', '<br />'); ?></span> <span class="comments"><?php comments_popup_link( __( 'No Comments »', 'buddypress' ), __( '1 Comment »', 'buddypress' ), __( '% Comments »', 'buddypress' ) ); ?></span></p>
</div>
</div>
<?php do_action( 'bp_after_blog_post' ) ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<div class="navigation">
<div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link( __( '← Previous Entries', 'buddypress' ) ) ?></div>
<div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link( __( 'Next Entries →', 'buddypress' ) ) ?></div>
</div>
<?php else : ?>
<h2 class="center"><?php _e( 'Not Found', 'buddypress' ) ?></h2>
<p class="center"><?php _e( 'Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn\'t here.', 'buddypress' ) ?></p>
<?php locate_template( array( 'searchform.php' ), true ) ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<?php do_action( 'bp_after_blog_home' ) ?>
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar("widgetized-page-bottom-2") ) : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</div><!-- .padder -->
</div><!-- #content -->
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar("custom-sidebar") ) : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php get_footer() ?>I’m not trying to take the easy way out here guys. I have been struggling with this and researching and trying different strategies for 2 days now. I would appreciate any guidance any of you could offer.
Sincerely grateful,
John Stringfellow
If you have searched the forum, developers (from the navigation on top), and google you have two options:
1. Install bbpress from the one click installer by BuddyPress
2. Install bbpress alone and connect to BuddyPress
You’ll have total freedom customizing the forum if you choose option 2, but thanks to the community, there’s a plugin for option 1 too.

Get a testing environment, try the both and explorer the bp world!!
Topic: I gave buddypress a try
I did give buddypress a try, I thought this would be the ideal package to use. The problem I have with the forums in buddypress is, it does not have a forum layout. At the moment when I post topics it is does not flow very well! It would be easier if it was in the standard format, something like: Board name/ Categories/ Forums / Topics. This way all the topics could be kept much more neat.
I have gone back to a standard wordpress layout, and I am simply going to link to a phpbb forum, that way all the post will be able to be kept in order.
It would be great if there were an option to add a forum such as phpbb etc into buddypress, as I said I did give the buddypress forum a try, but topics could not made like standard forums!
So this is a pretty huge issue I’m having,
For the longest time I’ve had a maintenance plugin turned on so that no one can view my site unless they’re logged in. And there were a few times when I would turn it off to check out the registration page (in previous versions of BP) and it would work, I would see the registration page.
So now, I’m about ready to launch the site, and I decided I’d turn of maintenance mode for a while and check out the registration page before I launch and it just takes me back to my homepage.
I’ve deactivated every plugin except buddypress and it still refuses to work, I’ve even switched back to the original buddypress theme, and I’ve temporarily deleted my bp-custom.php file to see if there was an issue in there. It just refuses to go to the page.
I’ve tried going to /wp-signup.php and then I can see in the URL it’s obviously redirecting to /register, and then it redirects back to /.
Then for the heck of it, I decided I’d try and turn off buddypress (so it’s back to wordpress-mu). THEN it works, but obviously it’s just the simple wordpress-mu sign up page on /wp-signup.php
So I’m completely stumped, I really would like some help on this.
I haven’t edited anything in the buddypress core files. (and yes signup IS enabled in the admin)
I’m using:
Wordpress-Mu 2.9.2
Buddypress- 1.2.2.1
Thanks for any help I get.
