BuddyPress.org

Where can we get more info on this? This could possibly be huge. Just for the fact that most people who use wordpress aren’t that technical. So, if anyone has any data on this project I would like to see it.

Thanks for letting the cat out of the bag this is HUGE!!!

For a general chat for logged in users I used these instructions and it worked perfectly.

The same situation on my site. I preffer polish language but in English don’t can activate widgets too.

I grab last version from svn. I try on new wordpressmu version and on oncombo version. I think is still any error in widgets.

Since you’re asking, I think maybe you should have let Andy announce this when it was time.

Now that the cat is out of the bag, I think it only makes sense to offer BuddyPress to the widest audience. In my opinion, BuddyPress does what everyone wishes WordPress would have done in the first place, so I feel like this was inevitable and a very good thing.

Btw David, I was the tall skinny guy that helped you get the projector working at your presentation. :wave:

OK, so this is a core WordPress setting. It’s in /wp-admin/includes/image.php – specifically, the call to imagejpeg on line 71. http://php.net/imagejpeg has an optional third argument $quality. It defaults to 75 (0 being worse, 100 being best). If urgent I suggest changing this file for the interim.

Elsewhere in WordPresss, /wp-includes/media.php, we have this:

If (!imagejpeg( $newimage, $destfilename, apply_filters( 'jpeg_quality', $jpeg_quality ) ) )

return new WP_Error('resize_path_invalid', __( 'Resize path invalid' ));

I’ll put a ticket on the WordPress trac to see if we can get this filter added to the call in image.php.

*EDIT*: this is a core WordPress file, not MU.

Login to WordPress admin, go to Site Admin, Options, scroll to the bottom, under Menu, activate Plugins.

Hi, you need to login to your wordpress admin, go to Site Admin, Options, scroll to the very bottom, under Menus, activate Plugins. Not sure why default is set to off.

There are some major changes happening to WPMU, so Andy mentions he is waiting until those changes are complete and then release the final alongside WPMU.

@brandtd, back from the dead… Looks good and I like the colors a lot.

Something I noticed is that the page links in your main navigation start with “www.” when it doesn’t need it. If you’re using RC1 then that is hard coded and you can just omit that and be good to go.

@Andy, question that I didn’t see asked… For the recent forum widget, are you using the existing widget for non-mu WordPress, or did you make a special one for BuddyPress?

I’ve corrected some bugs now. Please try the latest version, WP Google Maps – 2.0b2, that you can download at http://www.ezbizniz.com/wordpress-plugins/google-maps

wp commerce works fine in mu what are you talking about

A majority of the plugins do work, and it’s up to each individual author or admin to adjust the plugins that don’t.

The obvious plugin issue with MU is fixed in the trunk from what I understand, so it’s only a matter of time before MU gets bumped to 2.7.1 also.

So what it sounds like you’re saying is that you know the answer to your question, but you don’t really like it so you want to vent a little.

I would like to see the ability for users to be able to personalise their profile page, with this I mean them being able to pick ‘boxes’ with content (say, my groups, my friends, online friends, personal info, etc sort of like widgets, but picked by each user) and place them on their profile, perhaps able to move them around ajax style (and hide/minimize/maximize them) like in the WordPress backend dashboard.

Unfortunately not, at least right now.

What I consider the main reason for this, among the others, is that WPMU has a specific plugin directory devoted to “instant on” plugins, and BuddyPress relies on that specific ability within WPMU to activate itself and to load up all of the necessary files and functions.

You could, however, install WPMU and BuddyPress together, but then turn off the ability for users to make their own blogs. This will essentially make it operate like a WordPress.org install on the outside, with MU/BP’s sweet creamy insides.

perhaps I posted wrong the line:

<?php bp_friend_last_content_update() ?>

doesn’t do much, you’ll need to decide what material you want to display there.. I assume this is going to be the “home” theme of the wordpress mu right?
