BuddyPress.org

@ roydeanjr: No, there’s no specific documentation about that yet. If you want to make a theme, make sure you know some theme building from the standard wordpress and check the buddypress theme/core files for the buddypress functions/template tags.

@ Andrea: As you can see people want the normal wp themes to be converted to bp themes, so it’s only good that your fulfilling their needs. Besides, we need more bp themes.

The group component can be disabled; but how to only allow PRIVATE GROUPS where the groups forums are also not created in bbpress (and visible) ?

Edit: Just noticed that there is a plugin to do this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bpgroups/

are you using https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sidebar-login/ plugin ?

Yeah, I’m gonna have to uninstall this plugin because of the issues. I can’t seem to log out of my wordpress site without clearing my cache or using a different browser.

If you are persistent – you should check out the author’s step by step here:

I took a bunch of guesses at the facebook developer plugin and got it all working, but some of the bugs are too tough for me to deal with and my users are complaining….

I can never get the cool designs in my head to work out on the screen. So I’m setting out to bp other themes.

Guess the topic starter is in luck.

@ nexia: Haha, agreed. I make my themes myself so never have the urge too use other peoples work.

I’m working on this one in particular, but it’s in my free spare time.

Bpdev (nicola) is a bit behind with development, as far as I know. But he’s been active again lately so it might work again with the buddypress 1.2 release.

I’m planning on getting this to work with my bbpress forum and inline blog editor. Don’t really need to load that huge wysiwyg editor from wordpress admin.

actually Xevo, each person think that their prefered theme mean to become official and by default… that is by experience… rofl…

you can even see it, Andy decided that his new theme would be the default of 1.2…. rofl

Topic renamed to make the purpose clearer and marked the topic as ‘not a support question’.

Ask the original creator if he wants to do it.

Personally I don’t see why this is better than all those other wordpress themes.

actually as private messages were not in WordPress, there is no akismet filter on its content, compared to posts and comments… maybe someone can add this to the posting actions ?!… it’s just 2 lines of code.

Anyone have any luck using sign-up question or wpmudev’s sign-up code? They both work great on a regular MU install since the person signing up has to answer a logical question or enter a code that they have received previously. The problem is when you activate those plugins, they work on the WordPress registration page and not the BuddyPress Registration page. Those would likely solve all the problems if we could get them to work together.

I’m developing a site that we want only approved, or in some cases paid members to be able to sign up, but I can’t get either of those plugins to work with BuddyPress. Anyone been able to do that, or know how it would be done?

nexia – please submit a ticket on trac.mu.wordpress.org so the problem is at least highlighted.
