    Hi all,

    I have BP 1.2 on a WPMU 2.9.1 install. (www.threesheetsnw.com). I’ve fairly successfully added BuddyPress to an existing WordPress child theme.

    As an admin, I’ve created several blogs for other users. Under BP 1.1, when logged in, those users could see their blogs under the “My Blogs” navigation. Since the upgrade to 1.2, that no longer works.

    As Admin, it works fine for me.

    Any suggestions?

    “In WP v3.0, WordPress MU will be merged with the single WP installation and there will be a migration path.”

    Unless you are merging together more than one standalone WP install into one multisite network, in 3.0 there will be no need to migrate anything to turn on multiple blogs (ie; multiple sites).

    If anyone stumbles on this thread, there is another thread where I have replied at length about this: https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/activating-existing-users

    The best solution at this time is something like Group Activity Notifications https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-group-activity-stream-subscription/. It does a bit more than what you’re asking for, and by default it has everyone subscribed to everything, but it does allow the user pretty fine-grained control over notifications.

    We’re working to make the plugin more customizable, so that the site admin could choose to turn notifications off by default. Then it would work just like the way you describe.

    Hi.

    I’m building a social networking site based on WordPress MU and BuddyPress (latest versions downloaded a month ago), I still need couple of things to be done, and I was hoping someone could be generous to help me with, what I’m asking for is the following:

    1. Main navigation bar: I want to remove, add, modify the name, of links on the main horizontal navigation bar. Mostly, I want to add the links for the sub blogs (from the menu under blogs) and add them as main links on the nav bar side by side with “Groups” and “Forums” > http://damacom.net/

    2. I want an NGO directory, one that includes NGOs, charity associations, etc, where people need help can easily find them. I’ve searched all kind of plugins, but what I need is:

    2.1. For it to include: Organization name, contact info (tel., fax., email, address), and one small brief paragraph about the organization and what they do

    2.2. Organization categorized by country and category for people to easily find what they’re looking for among hundreds of organization that will be listed there

    2.3. Entries (organizations’ names and info) could be entered by admin, or users themselves, but when entered by users, it needs the admin approval first so others don’t abuse this section.

    3. People can post project proposal to get NGOs attention to help them, this will be as the main blog

    3.1.1. Can I add more fields to the blog post entry other than the typical title/body fields? It should have at least 7 more fields; 1 in one line text field format, 6 in a text area (where they can write a brief paragraph) format, and a drop down menu for the project country.

    3.1.2. Search the project section for projects

    3.2. Somewhere to post the project from the main page, without having to go into the dashboard, or at least a link that can take the technically newbie users directly to the post project (blog post) section.

    I hope I managed to make everything clear, if there’s one of these point that are not clear, kindly ask me and I’ll clear it up.

    Your help is mostly appreciated; it is for a good cause to help people trying to do good things in their communities, and it’s completely non-profit.

    @Scotm that codex page no longer gives details on tweaking the files, it just points to the plugin.

    @maxell – when you set up the plugin it had instructions on page 3. You have to take the extra folders & files that are added to your theme, and make the divs & html match up to your original wp theme.

    Supposedly even the New York Times is on WordPress, although they hide it well. Not sure if they still are.

    they provide you with an RSS feed for your posts and comments on any syndicated content (my feed)… just like wordpress ~ so if you want to pull a feed, just use any common feed parsing plugin to pull your RSS into your Buddypress install. I like to use feedwordpress. Or if you don’t want to duplicate the feed as posts, you can use the built in SimplePie functions in wordpress to display your RSS feed as a widget, like the widget here that pulls in rss from another site.

    I ‘ve started using this great share service built using GPL and i want it adapted for BP.

    FYI: Amplify.com is built on top of WordPress MU, a project from Automattic which is licensed under the GPL.

    With that in mind, we wanted to say a few quick words about our approach regarding open source software and our use of open source projects, as well as our intentions for releasing our own products under the GPL.

    At Amplify, we’re committed to openness and the GPL both in letter and in spirit. Any software which is built on top of GPL licensed code will be released under the same license. Additionally, it is our intention to release any additional WordPress plugins, themes and other software we’ve developed to power Amplify under the GPL as well, with some exceptions relating to security of our particular installation and implementation of our internal Clipping API.

    Hi ALL,

    i’ve installed buddypress 1.2.1 on wordpress 3.0 alfa using a secondary blog.

    What happen is that an user (i.e. with test username) is logged in and it works properly.

    On logout, from both admin bar and widget, what happen is that user test is logged out, but admin will keep logged in and cant be logged out.

    Any hints?

    In reply to: URL Shortening

    @stwc Lunatic ;-)

    My favourite url shortener name so far I think is ‘Beam.to’

    We push blog posts out to twitter via Hootsuite, which has its own url shortening ow.ly (see what they did there?) So if you’re looking to do that kind of thing, a separate twitter / sn client might be the way to go.

    If you want to push members blog posts out to twitter, then any compatible WP plugin should work, you would just need to install a sitewide WordPress > Twitter feed plugin so that members can use it on their own blogs too.

    We use shortening services because it’s the nature of the beast but apart from the worries @stwc mentions above, as a few people point out, the danger of course is that if that url shortening service should cease to be so will all your links! Just a thought…

    Hi everyone,

    I have a problem with my Demo Data Plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/demo-data-creator/) in Buddypress 1.2. The functions that add dummy wire messages no longer work, and looking for the string “wire” in the BP source gives very few results. I guess it’s all rolled into the activity system now, yes?

    So my question is: can I use thebp_activity_add function to add wire messages to groups and profiles? The defaults for this function are:

    $defaults = array(
    'id' => false, // Pass an existing activity ID to update an existing entry.

    'action' => '', // The activity action - e.g. "Jon Doe posted an update"
    'content' => '', // Optional: The content of the activity item e.g. "BuddyPress is awesome guys!"

    'component' => false, // The name/ID of the component e.g. groups, profile, mycomponent
    'type' => false, // The activity type e.g. activity_update, profile_updated
    'primary_link' => '', // Optional: The primary URL for this item in RSS feeds (defaults to activity permalink)

    'user_id' => $bp->loggedin_user->id, // Optional: The user to record the activity for, can be false if this activity is not for a user.
    'item_id' => false, // Optional: The ID of the specific item being recorded, e.g. a blog_id
    'secondary_item_id' => false, // Optional: A second ID used to further filter e.g. a comment_id
    'recorded_time' => gmdate( "Y-m-d H:i:s" ), // The GMT time that this activity was recorded
    'hide_sitewide' => false // Should this be hidden on the sitewide activity stream?
    );

    So to add a dummy wire message to a group I’d use:

    bp_activity_add( array(
    "action"=>"Posted a Wire message",
    "content"=>"Lorem ipsum...",
    "type"=>"groups",
    "item_id"=>[ the group ID ]
    );

    If anyone uses this plugin and can help with any other bugs I’d be very grateful.

    Actually thanks for the post. This is a something I have been doing (trying to do) since wpmu 1.0. I use WPMU / Buddypress with young (elementary school students 6-12 years old) so simplicity is a must. The New Blog Options plugin (if it works as it says it will) would make make perfect customization possible. Here are a list of WPMU plugins that I use or have used that might help. I am in the process of retrying everything to achieve exactly what you are trying to do. Let everyone on the forums know how your testing goes. Hope this isn’t too long. I added links to save time since there are sometimes plugins with similar names).

    New Blog Options – this one is fairly new (still beta), and I haven’t tried it extensively yet, but it will allow you to clone on blog setup with it’s plugin options etc. to all new blogs.

    https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/default-blog-options/

    Limit Blogs per User – if you don’t want them making more than one blog (set to 2, one is the main buddypress blog and 2 is their own blog)

    https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/limit-blogs-per-user/

    WPMU New Blog Defaults – this will allow you to restrict menus, change default links, etc under the Options in the Site Admin menu

    https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wpmu-new-blog-defaults/

    Members – this one takes over where the old Role-manager plugin left off. Haven’t had time to check it out yet, but if you could use this with New Blog Options it would allow you to very finally tune what your users could do and see.

    https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/members/

    Adminimize – again I haven’t played with this for a while, but if you could use it with New Blog Options, then you could simplify the look of the menus for your users too.

    https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/adminimize/

    Default User Role – will set the user role when a new blog is created

    https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wpmu-default-user-role/

    Plugin Manager – does what it says, allows you to manage which plugins users can set, which ones are automatically turned on, and which regular users cannot see

    http://wpmudev.org/project/wpmu-plugin-manager

    download link is: http://wpmudev.org/download/946613807_mp-plugin-manager.php

    Of course with young people you might want to consider a privacy plugin like:

    More Privacy Options – this doesn’t work with the feed on Buddypress, but if you search the forums it can be made to work or you can use the following plugin for feed privacy (Buddypress privacy should be coming soon)

    http://wpmudev.org/project/More-Privacy-Options/

    download link is: http://wpmudev.org/download/999830698_ds_private_blog.php

    BP MPO Activity Filter – This plugin, BP MPO Activity Filter, does just what the name suggests: it filters BuddyPress activity feeds. Used with More Privacy Options.

    You’re looking for user_login for the “membername” part.

    Hello! I’d like to add links in my wordpress page navigation using the “Page Links To” plugin to point to the corresponding links that are in the adminbar like http://siteurl.com/members/membername/

    or http://siteurl.com/members/membername/profile/

    My question is where in the BP code can I find what defines “membername” in the urls above and create a dynamic link based on the membername variable? I think that makes sense…lol… please let me know if you need any more info to answer & many thanks in advance for any help!

    You probably need to enable registration on your WordPress site.

    Take a look at the BP Template Pack plugin.

    This plugin will try to make your WP theme compatible with BP.

    You can also build a child theme from the default BuddyPress theme.
