Topic: Make your own custom BuddyPress page

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting
John James Jacoby
Keymaster
The title of this post makes it a little hard to grasp what I’m talking about, but in short this is a really quick and easy way to make your own hard coded BuddyPress page without going into the WordPress page admin.

In this example we’re going to make a page called “fun” that you can visit at domain.com/fun.

Put the following In your home theme’s functions.php file…
```
define('BP_EXAMPLE_SLUG', 'fun');

function bp_show_example_page() {

global $bp, $current_blog;



if ( $bp->current_component == BP_EXAMPLE_SLUG && $bp->current_action == '' ) {

// The first variable here must match the name of your template file below

bp_core_load_template( 'fun', true );

}

}

add_action( 'wp', 'bp_show_example_page', 2 );
```
Now you need to create a fun.php file (mentioned above) in your home theme directory, and inside that file put…
```
<?php get_header(); ?>

<h3>Hello</h3>

<p>I am an example page.</p>

<?php get_footer(); ?>
```
This could be used to make custom a custom login page, or whatever you’d like…

All we did here was swipe the exact code BP already uses for the /register and /activate pages, and simplify it for our own use.

Have fun!

Jfcarter,

Have a look at the pods plugin for wordpress at http://pods.uproot.us/

I am trying to use it to create company profiles. Maybe we can combine efforts.

You have to download and install WordPress MU – https://mu.wordpress.org/

It looks like you are trying to install BuddyPress under single-user WordPress.

BP currently requires the multi-user version of WordPress. Read this and follow the link in point one: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/installing-buddypress/

Hi, I had everything working on Darkpress theme, I then decided to switch back to the default theme and customise this, the home page works, but when on the members page, it seems there is no stylesheet.

I have latest versions of WordPress MU & Buddypress installed. (Installed only yesterday)

I also have “bpmember” folder in “wp-content/bp-themes/

EDIT: GOT IT WORKING!! THANKS

Some people have suggested installing WP Hashcash to block signups, though I haven’t tried it myself.

But you’re saying that someone signed up on your BP install with the Facebook Connect plugin?

So it sounds like a problem with the FB plugin… not sure though.

Sounds like DJPaul suspects the same thing!

Are you on a shared hosting plan?

I suggest that you contact your hosting company and ask for the assistance in figuring out what is going on.

In reply to: BuddyPress VIP Hosting by Automattic?

Jeff Sayre
Participant

Also, Automattic’s VIP hosting is provided to just a very few, select, large clients. It is not something you can simply decide to purchase.

So, my guess is that, yes, Automattic will offer BuddyPress installs to their very few VIP clients, but it will not be available to the vast majority of users.

Suprise, suprise! It’s running. I’ve installed WordPress MU in a folder in a folder and now it’s running. But don’t ask me why the root installation doesn’t work with buddypress in a folder.

Hi all

I am currently exploring various WordPress MU / BuddyPress hosting / mangement options for a client and wondering if there is anything in Auomattic’s plan’s to offer a similar service to the VIP Hosting that is currently offered for WordPress but for MU / BuddyPress?

I am just about to email Automattic direct but thought a post here might get a quicker response.

Cheers

Just go to http://ww2.toksta.com and create an account and setup your chat the way you want it and click ‘Create Script’ and choose ‘WordPress’, upload it to the /wp-content/plugins dir and follow the readme file directions. It does work because I have it working on my site right now.

In reply to: How to add new menus and tabs

plrk
Participant

Is the eshop plugin a buddypress plugin really? If it is designed to work with WordPress, it does not hook into the menu functions etc that BuddyPress uses. Contact the author of that plugin and talk to him/her about it.

What do you mean by “menus and new tabs”? If you create a plugin, you can add custom menu items related to your plugin through various hooks (see the Skeleton Component for examples), but there are no built-in drag’n’drop functions for it.

hatiro

Jeff,

Your analysis in the paragraph above outlines exactly what users can expect or aim to acheive with shared hosting. The fact that it can be installed and operated is one thing, providing a desirable user experience is another.

The restrictions on shared hosting though may allow for a WPMU installation but not provide enough flexibility for some BuddyPress plugins to work, but as you say too many variables to be discussed here.

If BuddyPress does end up supporting single-user wordpress I’m sure that the net will undoubtedly widen.

You are using WordPress MU 2.8.2.

This should be the member page with a list of all members:

And the same look if I click on “Blog”, “Groups” or “Blogs”: (look at the adress bar)

And I get this if I click on the “admin”-link in the upper right corner:

The showcase site Wannanetwork’s community is down, there’s a news posting saying that they “have pushed the limits of WordPress” and that they are experiencing server problems.

I’d like to have Maxaud’s feedback on BP after running what seems to be a pretty high traffic site for months.

As for the “Showcase”, it deserves a cleanup, many sites are down

In reply to: BuddyPress and Shared Hosting

Jeff Sayre
Participant

hatiro-

The reason that the specific question of the OP is a WPMU issue is that he was asking whether a shared hosting account will be sufficient to run BP. Since BuddyPress is a WPMU plugin, what matters, then, is whether WPMU can successfully run on a shard hosting account.

I provided several links for him to begin his education.

In short, of course you can install WPMU + BP + bbP on many shared hosting accounts. But, whether that will provide a desirable user experience or support more than a few 10s to 100s of active users depends on too many variables to be discussed here. The underlying functionality of WPMU is paramount to the overall site functionality. If your site’s access to server resources is too limited, you will have issues quickly.

Perhaps once BuddyPress supports single-user WordPress, the options for hobbyists, as you call them, will be better.

In reply to: How to put a value from the registration form into a function

peterverkooijen
Participant

Thanks for responding DJPaul!

I guess the hook would be this:

user_register

Runs when a user’s profile is first created. Action function argument: user ID.

Or maybe this?

register_post

Runs before a new user registration request is processed.

I have a wish list of things I need to do with input from the registration form:

1. synchronize fullname with wp_usermeta firstname + last name

2. autogenerate username/blogurl from fullname

3. add new user to the ListMessenger mailing list

They all require taking input from the registration form, processing the input and then storing the results in specific database tables. I’m trying to puzzle together one or more plugins to do that.

Information on upgrading single-user WP to WPMU can be found on the WPMU forums.

As far as this question:

I have a good many members and would like to know how to add them as a community member or does this automatically do this on install?

BuddyPress does not do any importing of your existing members. There is a plugin that can help though: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-import-for-buddypress-all-fields/

I am not sure if that plugin is yet compatible with 1.0.3.

I think if you rename your /plugins and /mu-plugins (or whatever it’s called; the name escapes me) to something else, that’ll automatically deactivate them when WordPress tries to visit them. I think you have to visit your admin backend for this auto deactivation to happen.

OH! and when I went to check my error log to try and pin point the exact location of the error – all of my logs had been completely and totally WIPED. it showed zero errors. how weird is that?

Check you are looking at the correct file. Sometimes I chase errors then I realise I’m looking at an old log or the wrong file (doh!)

Nommo

Hey James, thanks for the reply… I am pretty sure I could do it with a little help – it can’t be more complicated than forums platforms as you say… there is no ‘recipe’ out there yet so there is a chance to explore new territory

I don’t really think it ‘competes’ – they are both GPL community platforms, ccHost being more niche for sure, but I think a social site with creative commons music functionality would be a killer direction for buddypress…

This seems to be a lifetime project for me (yesmate.com) – starting back in the days before wordpress, when open-source CMS were rare… I am in no hurry

Perhaps it would be better to design some plug-ins for WP/BP that emulate what ccHost does (I know from trying to subscribe to an ‘editors picks’ feed on cMixter via my n95 that WP does RSS and pretty URLs better lol).
