We are looking for a developer to install/create a WordPress MU and Buddypress . If you are interested, please email me a kathleendragon@gmail.com
Hey Maxaud, Off topic but nice job on becoming a Showcase Site at wordpress.org!
I just gave you five stars. Go BuddyPress!
I’ve been thinking about a Classifieds plugin for Buddypress and I thought a good place to start would be with a Photoshop mockup of how it might work, so I made one and posted it here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/28730426@N03/sets/72157615860642132/detail/
I decided to only use For Sale, Housing and Help Wanted ads and excluded Personals, Announcements and a Service Directory, because I think there are better ways to handle those. (I have an idea about a Pro Account/Business Directory combo plugin, if anyone’s interested I’ll draw it up)
I lifted most of the categories and copy text from Craigslist. Oopsy.
I’m new to WordPress and my PHP abilities suck, so if anybody wants to tackle this then by all means go for it. Sell it, give it away, whatever, if you want it, it’s yours. I just hope this helps to get something like this made, because if I have to code it, it might take years.
Opinions wanted!
Why fix something when it’s not broke!
You should keep the same practices as wordpress!
Is this a buddy press issues or wordpress mu issue?
Even blog titles,
http://yaksocial.com/blog/2009/03/24/yak-social/
The title is non existent! It’s simply displaying the website name omg!
echo 'Welcome' . ??????????????(field_7, $curauth->the_user). ' , How Are You' ;
notice the ????????????? above…. what do i put there to get Xprofile fields?
here is what I use on regular wordpress profile field…
if( get_user_option(first_name, $curauth->the_user) ):
echo 'Welcome'. get_user_option(first_name, $curauth->the_user) .' ' ;
endif;
OK. I did a fresh install and only added Database Integration. Actually I did it both ways with cookies as well as with only database integration. On both I get this setup errors…
>>> WordPress “auth” cookie salt not set.
>>>>>> Could not fetch “auth” cookie salt from the WordPress options table.
>>>>>> You will need to manually define the “auth” cookie salt in your database.
>>> WordPress “logged in” cookie salt not set.
>>>>>> Could not fetch “logged in” cookie salt from the WordPress options table.
>>>>>> You will need to manually define the “logged in” cookie salt in your database.
The problem is that these are not defined in the database to my knowledge. I think the ldap plugin takes these out? Any suggestions on how I could integrate the forums with the LDAP WPMU Plugin??
What’s the max size can one upload in wordpress MU/BP for a blog because I get an error msg when uploading 50mb (size to big) ! maybe in future there’s going to be a bottleneck on video media uploads on servers?
Being a nub at anything PHP, is there an example of this somewhere?

@Manoj: I think your plugin imports existing wordpress users. In my case, the existing database is not wordpress.
You can make use of widgets available in BuddyPress and WordPress.
Hi,
We had same problem when we moved our installation to WordPress MU + BuddyPress
So, I have developed a plugin for importing members to WordPress MU + BuddyPress installation.
It might be useful for you as well, please check it in https://buddypress.org/extend/plugins/
Yeh, it’s rocking out, nice work.
BTW, you missed out out installing wordpress mu video on the https://codex.buddypress.org/page – it’s been watched a few thousand times and we’re getting plenty of positive feedback so I hope its useful.
Here are some directions for backing up and restoring your wordpress db.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database
I used it to convert my beta site to RC1. Pretty straight forward.
I like the sound of this.. privacy for members && groups…
I hope you would add this plugin to bpdev or wordpress.org for all to use?
I haven’t modified any of that… here is the possible error I am getting:
[20-Mar-2009 09:26:20] WordPress database error Table ‘my_database.wp_Array_options’ doesn’t exist for query SELECT * FROM wp_Array_options WHERE option_name = ‘siteurl’ made by get_blog_option
it looks like wp_Array_options should be getting wp_X_options where X = the blogid number. Any ideas where this query would be taking place and why the variable would be an Array instead of just a number?
I think maybe I might have used a variable somewhere I shouldn’t have maybe if I can do a search for that variable name and check all instances of it I can find where it is being set to an Array instead of just the blog_id.
Thanks for all your help.
Thank you DJPaul.
Yes, that’s what I meant.
I plan to use a separate classified ad script, and I was trying to know if a professional developper would be able to mod the script so that it uses the wordpress login for authentification. As I said, the idea is to require that users register in order to view the full details of the ads.
1) Depends what you mean by “same login.” If the classified ads is part of another site, then you will have to see if you change mod that program to use the WordPress user tables for authentication.
2) Yes, it’s possible – just use the is_user_logged_in() function as a check.
Modifying $wp_filter and all those other vars is dangerous. These are wp internal vars that control the flow of function calls when wp does do_action() or apply_filters(). Changing their values can lead to unpredictable behavior.
Danger Will Robinson.
If you want to change the sequence of the actions and filters in wp or replace them with your own functions, there is a way to do this. remove_action() remove_filter() and the action priority parameter.
See: https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API
I ran into a big problem with avatars: images could be uploaded, but the crop box couldn’t be adjusted (it could only be found up in the lefthand corner of the image), when you cropped anyway and went ahead the image literally bounced around the page, and the uploaded images wouldn’t show up — I’d just get a black box.
The solution, as it turned out, was to look for plugins that might be causing the conflict. For me, the Litebox plugin for WordPress was causing the problem — deactivating it enabled everything to work just fine.
> Will it use a wikifarm installation where the main installation is in /wiki/ and when a new wiki is created it will create an independent wiki in /wiki/examplewiki/ using the wiki-engine in /wiki/ or will it simply create a new group in the main wiki /wiki/?
It will be for example (Link will not work) http://mybuddypress.de/wikis/examplewiki
The engine will be the same for all the wikis. You can even those the skin for your wiki. But one cool feature is, that you can inherid material from the main wiki. The idee is: We have lots of course-material in one wiki. But you want to rearrange it useing the existing stuff in a subwiki. It is even possible to have something like. http://mybuddypress.de/wiki/examplewiki/wiki-for-our-next-meeting.
But we don’t have a user interface for that at the moment.
> Will it use the user authorisation from the wpmu/bp-database or the built in system?
The authorisation will be from the wpmu/bp-database. If you are a user of Buddypress, you can create new wikis, invite friends etc. It is based on the group plugin and will work in a simular way.
> Will you need someone to test it? (I’m no programmer but i would love to help in anyway i can.)
If you send me an E-Mail i can give you the access-data. If you wan’t to help, documentation und support will be importend. In a few weeks, i would love to see a video on wordpress.tv showing the stuff.
> Will it be available for download?
Yes. If it works correct and documentations is done, you can download it. Everything should be GPL.

Sorry for my english.

I wonder how tough it would be to use the same “Add Media” buttons that WordPress uses for it’s Quickpress thing. That seems like the ideal solution to me.
And a “post to wire” bookmarklet, same as the WordPress “Press This” but with a Friends selector. Hmmm
I am getting the error “WordPress database error Query was empty for query made by require, require_once, do_action, call_user_func_array, bp_core_do_catch_uri, load_template, require_once, do_action, call_user_func_array, bp_core_directory_members_content, bp_core_get_userlink, bp_fetch_user_fullname, xprofile_set_field_data, BP_XProfile_ProfileData->save ?”
I’m using IE 7, it’s intermitten, I go to one of my pages in my site (sometimes even admin area) I get the error as stated above, I hit refresh and the page loads just fine(i’ve deleted cache, thinking it was something in there). In firefox it doesn’t load at all when I refresh, this only happens when I add the bp-xprofile folder and php file to my mu-plugins folder. When I take the bp-xprofile folder and php file out of my mu-plugins folder everything works fine no error, I have no problems with any of the other plugins.
My site: momchatter.com (right now I do not have the bp-xprofile folder and file in the mu-plugins folder)
Here is my environment:
Windows 2003 server std sp2
IIS 6
Mod_rewrite Pro
PHP v5.2.9
MySQL 5.067
Wordpress MU trunk (but I can not figure out exactly what version, but I believe it’s from 3/1/2009)
Buddypress SVN 1241
I am one of those that think she knows what she’s doing but doesn’t really know, just happens to figure things out by blind stumbling luck! (i’m probably forgetting something I read in the forums posted by andy but I can’t seem to find it again)
Thanks!

MD5 passwords will still work with WordPress, but they will be less secure.
Hi,
I’m moving my site from PHP-Nuke to Buddypress wordpress platform. I saw that WP is using different kind of hash passwords (salted) then phpnuke which is on standard MD5 (plz correct me if I’m word).
Because I have over 10.000 registered users, I’m wondering if there is any chance to change all md5 passwords to WP? I don’t wish that when people come to my new site starts to wondering whats wrong with their passwords…
Does anyone have any idea how can I solve this problem?
