Topic: Add photos, videos, links ?
So, following up on http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic/16906, why does BuddyPress show me the site name in the header of every blog, no matter what the blog may be called?
Thanks,
Does anyone tried the BP-FBConnect plugin with BP1.2 on a single WordPress install 2.9.2? any issues?
Hi everybody.
I already posted at the wordpress forums but i found out that my problem is based on the install of buddypress, so i’m asking here.
I want to convert a complete community to wordpress+bbpress and possibly +buddypress.
We have about 40k users.
I noticed that it is not possible to enter usernames with “-“, “_”, ” ” and stuff like that.
But a lot of our users have such usernames.
The problem is in the function validate_user together with sanitize_user.
Now, maybe because i’m a WP novice, i’m asking myself why this is, like it is.
Why aren’t spaces and co not allowed in usernames?
What would happen if i change the functions?
What does depend on such usernames?
Second:
The Name field.
I know that people doing social networking etc love to be as public as possible.
But our community depends on privacy and second on control.
It may be possible to tell my users: You can use another login name than the one which is displayed (pro, more secure)
Problem 1: Too many old users.
Problem 2: I don’t want users to be able to switch there display name. Everyone should be able to identify who he is talking to.
Problem 3: I don’t want urls with username or fullname or whatever in it.
I’m sorry, but i’m stuck with the problem that this community should be ported to wordpress. And now i have to find a solution. I hope someone can help even if it breaks the idea of social networking stuff.
TIA
So… I guess this is miscelaneous.
I have bbpress successfully installed next to my wordpress blog. Buddypress looks great. Trouble is, I really don’t know PHP so I hesitate to start playing to much with these things especially since bbpress seems to be a dead product (anyone beg to differ?)
What’s the future here? Are we looking at things that are going to become plugins? or will these things always stand along? What I really want is an excellent forum with some networking features. Would love it if it all worked with facebook connect. nothing too fancy, but I dont’ want to get lost in a quagmire of plugins or needing to learn PHP.
Any thoughts on where these projects are heading? How much support they’re gonna have, and so on?
Thanks!
Topic: buddy-matic
I am trying to get my single user 2.9.2 wordpress theme work with your latest version of buddypress.
I am using the buddymatic and am at “stage 3”, “fixing alignment”.
I’ve identified the files that I need to edit from and edit to.
Now I “will need to change the HTML structure in the BuddyPress templates that I copied into my theme to match the structure in my page.php”
I know the instructions say “Make note of the HTML template structure of the file, specifically the <div> tags that surround the content and sidebar”, but I guess I am just too novice to really understand what is being talked about.
I have started by trying to edit the activity/index.php with what I think might be the right changes, uploading it back to the directory on line and reloading the page http://www.mywebsite.com/members/admin/activity/ to see if my changes have taken effect and so far they haven’t.
I guess this means one of two things:
1) my editing of the file isn’t right (highly likely)
or
2) this method will not show changes to the way the page is displayed until some other or all files are edited.
Could anyone please help me?
I just did a fresh WordPress (v2.9.2) install in the root and added only the buddypress (v1.2.1) plugin.
After that i enabled permalinks and set the BuddyPress Default 1.2.1 theme and it’s working…
But only the home page (WP).
All the links on this page give an error like this:
Not Found!
The requested URL /members/admin/ was not found on this server.
and in my apache error log : File does not exist: /var/www/html/members
This only ‘member’ dir i have is “/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/members”
I tried several permalinks updates and some custom .htaccess like:
_____
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
_____
and
_____
RewriteBase /
#uploaded files
RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/$ index.php [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*wp-content/plugins.*
RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2 [L]
# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^.*/wp-admin$
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule . – [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-.*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
<IfModule mod_security.c>
<Files async-upload.php>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</Files>
</IfModule>
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
______
But this doesn’t solve the problem.
Anyone has an idea how to fix this?
