    I posted this message about week ago, and the thread was closed without asking me:

    I have been consistently having issues with the Recent Blogs Widget. It will work fine for days, then the list of Recently Updated blogs go missing from my blogs and when I check out the widget page for these blogs, this is what I see:

    `%BEG_OF_TITLE%Recent Blog Posts%END_OF_TITLE% ‘

    I delete the file bp-blogs.php file from the mu-plugins folder and the error message vanishes. Sometimes an hour later, sometimes a day later, I can upload bp-blogs.php and all is well again.

    And when it errors out on one blog, it errors on on ALL blogs using it.

    I am running it on primepress theme, WPMu 2.7 and BuddyPress RC-1.

    I’ve been having this problem for weeks, previous attempts to get some help for this proved fruitless.

    The problem vanished right after I posted this.

    So the entry was closed.

    This is a intermittent and recurring problem. It comes and goes. I have no explanation why. When it happens, ever single blog using the plug in shows the error message mentioned above.

    I’m going to solve the problem mentioned above by simply giving up on Buddy Press. It showed potential. But the it was impossible to work with because:

    1. Requests for help are often ignored.

    2. It is impossible to ask for help because the the requests CANNOT BE POSTED ON THE MALFUNCTIONING MESSAGE BOARD.

    I mean, seriously? Automattic OWNS bbPress. How does it work out that they fix their own product? I understand what Beta version means, but I cannot understand why Automattic cannot fix a malfunctioning bbPress forum that they own.

    I’ll come back when there’s a final version.

    If this message will not post here, I’ll post in on mu.wordpress.org.

    And I full expect the routine lecture about how this is open source, run by volunteers, etc.

    Whenever someone does an action with buddypress say for example viewing a random blog it first shows a 404 error *THEN* redirects appropriately.

    It’s as if it’s loading some file that doesnt exist then redirecting.

    check it out at http://webcomicplanet.com/

    also in bp-groups-widge.php around line 60 you need to clear the floats there

    </span></div>

    </div>

    <div class=”clear”></div>

    also, avatar’s cannot be uploaded on registration BUT works in the members pages so i’m trying to disable the fact it’s asking for the upload of the avatar on the wp-signup page so any help in removing that action would be nice from the wp-signup

    in the pages for the plugin-templet you can’t use the #content as a #page and keep it compatible with the pages that wpmu dishs out

    <div id=”content” class=”widecolumn”>

    ^ is NOT compatible because you’re using it as a column not the #page, while WPMU dishes it out as #page div for the registration your using it as a column inside another area with a sidebar

    since most if not all wordpress themes that use #content as a “page area” and not a “column of content” it would probably be best if you changed that div name to something other then #content

    Try to add borders to #content border left and right and then look at how the wp-signup.php page comes up and your members and groups pages and you will see what I mean by that.

    – Phil

    but mainly, very curious as to why 404 pages keep getting dished out, it’s like i’m missing a file in my custom theme.

    Nope – I’ve done all that – I can post on buddypress and and appears in forum and I can post on forum end and appears in buddypress group.

    the only thing I didn’t do was the intial wordpress integration when installing bbpress – which is found under “bbpress” >> setting >> wp integration.

    During bbpress I got “minor” errors regard auth_salt and “cookies” which I ignored as I ssumed the buddypress/bbpress integaration would’ve superseded the initial wp/bbpress integartion.

    Feel a bit silly asking this, because I am a proper newbie with wordpress MU and buddypress.

    I want to admin some hard links to the admin bar, how would I add an ‘Example’ (example.com) button to the bar? Would I keep having to update something in bp-core-adminbar.php with every upgrade?

    Thanks!

    #38179

    I think this makes perfect sense, but I think the word “tag” needs to be used carefully, because WordPress has sort of defined the use of “tags and a “tag cloud” as a specific function, and this does not sound like that.

    This just sounds like a collective list of links that the group can add things to, more like relative content than tags in my mind. Similar to the “blog this” part of WordPress that lets you be on any web page and via a bookmark, create a blog about it, this would allow members of a group to be on either 1.) a page/post/attachment within your site, or 2.) any site on the web, and add it as a relative link for your specific group.

    Am I making sense, or going off in the wrong direction maybe?

    Hi all.

    I just installed and tested WordPress MU, all was working fine.

    Downloaded the BP package, followed all the installation instructions. Everything seemed to working fine.

    Got a error when clicking on a member to view the profile:

    http://bourne-studio.com/members/admin/

    I moved the themes to the locations mentioned in the ‘read me’ files within the themes folder.

    Can anyone tell me what I did wrong and also what needs to be done to solve this issue.

    Thanx

    Nope, no other problems, just the messaging problem I referred to in another thread (and maybe that’s related?). The other person I’ve found who has that problem does not seem to have a subdirectory install, though. (in the comments here http://futuristguy.wordpress.com/2009/01/05/missional-tribe-not-just-another-use-of-the-word-missional/)

    So far every other problem I’ve had has been clearly matched to this misalignment of /eportfolios and /eportfolios/social . And working out the right links has fixed all of those problems.

    But I think maybe I wasn’t clear–it’s not just that buddypress is in a sub-directory, the issue is that the buddypress homepage (home blog) is *not* the home blog of the wpmu install. Blog number 1 of wpmu is at /eportfolios and the buddypress home is /eportfolios/social

    Is that something you’ve tested and had full functionality without these changes? That would be great–would make upgrades easier–but I don’t see how.

    See, siteurl() is macaulay.cuny.edu/eportfolios . but in the case of those links in the top nav (and others) it should be macaulay.cuny.edu/eportfolios/social

    Tell me there’s something obvious I’m missing! That would be great!

    BuddyPress is a set of WordPress MU plugins.

    Andy, about _wpnonce, the problem with “WordPress failure notice” the theme is the default home/member theme, and the problem is with the email… how i resolve this? thanks!

    edit: i’ve read in the svn the fixing in #1126. Thanks.

    #38034

    Sorry for the confusion. I’m juggling a few ideas so I’m probably not communicating in a straight line right now.

    Check out http://delsolownersclub.com/discussions/topic/great-job-john for an example…

    Basically some of the people logged in and posting in my forums were converted over from a wordpress.org install, and they have yet to update their buddypress profiles with real name info, so using this plugin, their names don’t show up at all, and neither do their avatars as they haven’t uploaded one yet either. Make sense?

    And yes about your template… If you look at the front-page.php or forum.php files, you’ll see that the usernames still fall back on the bbPress username of ‘admin’ instead of your name as ‘Site Admin’ if that makes sense? Striving for uniformity, I’d like to get all of the names displayed the same.

    #38025

    Installed and working. Yay! :D

    Since I converted my db from a wordpress.org install, not all of my users have converted their information, i.e. real names, etc… Is there any way to have a fall back and use the nicename in the event no real name exists? Also, if there is no avatar uploaded, it doesn’t seem to use the generated avatar for me. The idea would be to have everyone use an avatar eventually, but alas my user base can be slow to adapt…

    Do you have a way to do the user names in forum.php, functions that are usually topic_last_poster() and $topic->topic_poster_name? I suppose if the user->ID of those people is within $topic then it’s pretty straight forward eh…

    RSS widget is a WordPress widget, so if it is a problem, make sure you file it on the WordPress trac.

    If you are a complete beginner to WordPress then you need to head on over to their documentation for a beginner crash course as it’s more or less impossible to guide you through it all.

    I’ve been trying for two weeks to figure out how to install the Forums and can’t even get BBpress to install, much less integrate it. No help on their forums, so I’m hoping someone might have a hint here.

    None of the salt values appear in the WPMU 2.7 admin options menu

    I have the exact same issues at marcbrzeau and get these errors at end of install:

    >>> 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.

    Forum could not be created!

    No worries, it’s always better to ask and learn than to be silent and stay uneducated. :)

    And yes, you need to look at a members profile in order to see the BuddyPress member theme.

    The individual blogs are not managed by BuddyPress but by WordPress MU and because of that the themes are standard WordPress themes.

    hi, i’ve a problem with the group membership request.

    when a user send a membership request the admin of the group receive an email with the link to accept/reject the member…

    when i click on the link to accept/reject the user i receive a “WordPress failure notice” with the message “Are you sure you want to do this?” and no more. the only way is close the browser window.

    i’ve tested it with wpmu 2.7 and bp rc-1… how i resolve this? thanks.

    #37959

    Yes sir, this is exactly how I have mine. It is from the latest RC1 functions.php file it appears. (Side note: what does it do about archives, etc…?)

    Back on topic (mostly)… Here’s a question, and maybe this is the culprit. I’ve asked over on the WPMU forums and so far no one has bitten so maybe I’ll theorize here.

    I have two domains, testdomain.com, and testdomain2.com. testdomain.com originally had wordpress.org 2.7 installed on it, integrated with bbpress.org 1.0a6. I backed up my database and started my conversion process.

    When I installed WPMU and BuddyPress, I did so at testdomain2.com and I am confident I used the subdirectory option. Then when it was working and I had the test database all restored from my afore mentioned backup, and working with all the integration and everything, I moved all of the files from testdomain2.com, to testdomain1.com. With a few hours tweaking, everything appears to be working, but this and the fact that it is now installed as a subdomain install instead of subdirectory.

    Now, I can’t tell what the difference is between the two installs (subdirectory and subdomain.) The .htaccess files are the same, the database is the same, and the files all appear to be the same as well. What the heck does WPMU do where to have it know the difference? Could that be part of my problem? Ah!

    #37946

    @mikepratt, Burt nailed it on the head, but I’d like to add that I think many people are still stuck in the forum world, and haven’t peeked their heads out to see that social networking has evolved in the past 5 years or so. I know on lots of car or video game forums, it’s basically just a free for all chat fest, and trying to convert those minds into using BuddyPress or WordPress alone is too big of a change; I’ve tried it twice now with little success. Having a dedicated familiar looking forum but using BuddyPress to emphasize the social atmosphere helps those stubborn users transition a little easier and allow them to fallback on the features of a dedicated forum in the event it doesn’t work out.

    @burt, I noticed on your Common Interest site that you have the forums separated between public and group. I would like to do something similar, and am curious as to how you did so. Also, is there an easy way to tap into the profile fields/user information from BuddyPress and display it as post author information in bbPress?

    Hi all.

    I had an issue with widgets when I first translated BP to Swedish.

    Try this: after you upload your translation file go into the admin panel and remove all widgets from the site.

    After this, re-add them the same way as they were before.

    Andy mentioned that WordPress registers widgets in a “wierd” way that translation can screw up.

    Andy, we’ve had a discussion on IRC long time ago about this ticket https://trac.buddypress.org/ticket/257

    And it’s stuck with this WordPress bug https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8662

    Could you push the core devs up there to take a look and commit the patch? It’s a tiny bug, and it doesn’t affect standard WP installations, but it does to BP, and it’s bugging us who live ahead GMT and use our local time as the blog’s time.

    The questions still remains unanswered. Do we have to manually edit files when moving wordpress mu & buddypress to a different domain?

    Yes, same here. I upgraded both my BuddyPress and WordPress to the latest versions but error still persists.
