BuddyPress.org

This may not be possible, but it might be nice to include users of Identi.ca (and Laconica servers) plus Openmicroblogger.org servers in this stream. Both use the OpenMicroBlogging protocol enabling users to post to Twitter and subscribe to friends on each platform.

Openmicroblogger.org in particular is heavily tied to WordPress plugins and themes already.

And here, on my Russian BuddyPress Support Site, is the same manual in Russian for the Russian BuddyPress User. Enjoy!

These are your programming problems or your mu configuration problems not related to bp. Try the mu forums.

Posting massive error logs to a forum doesn’t help. It just annoys the people who might have helped.

If you had started out giving an overview of your problem and how it relates to bp, you may get better results next time.

You do not have mu setup and configured correctly. Until you do nobody will be paying any attention to your other problems. They are probably all related to the fact that mu is not working. Get mu working and then install bp. Please see the mu forums for help installing, configuring mu.

gpo1, nope. I’ve got too much on my plate right now. I’m not going to be able to do much else except get a site launched by the 1/1/09 deadline.

I talked to Andy about enabling bp to use standard wp widgets in the member theme. Got a couple of ideas but no time at the moment to play with them. The problem is that mu deals with *one* theme per blog. The members theme is sort of this invisible theme that lurks in the background. mu doesn’t even know about it. Only bp knows about it. It *is* bp.

The way I understand that widgets work is:

Register a ‘sidebar’ in mu with a name. 1,2,3 or ‘BP Member Profile’, ‘BP Member Blogs’. The sidebar gets registered to a specific blog id.

register_sidebar(array('name'=>'Main Sidebar',

'before_title' => "<h3 class='widgettitle'>",

'after_title' => "</h3>n",

));

In theme code call mu’s sidebar launcher fn.

<?php if (!function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar('Main Sidebar') ) : // begin primary sidebar widgets ?>

I just had some questions that I didn’t have time to investigate. When can I call call register_sidebar()? Any time I want, anywhere I want? I see it done in theme functions.php.

When I access any bp member theme functions do they execute in the blog id 1 environment? I think so.

If I register some bp member theme sidebars in bp code will it show up in the mu backend? I think so.

Seems like only the site admin who owns blog id 1 will be able to add widgets to the member theme. Well that’s a *good* thing. This is a feature.

Lots of questions and unknowns right now and not much time to explore answers. Have at it! Have fun.

Have you taken a look at this? https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/lifestream/

It will post stream info in the users blog, if you tinker with it you should be able to get it running in the users profile.

I took apart simplepie and I have news feeds running in the users profile.

Have you enabled wildcard subdomains such as in this post (linked to from bp docs)

In mu-plugins, these are plugins that help your WPMU site administration/installation. You won’t find them in the Plugins list. Most likely they’ll have areas in Site Admin.

The wp-content/plugins are for use by the blogs on your network. Here’s where you’d put wp-stats, akismet, and most of the plugins from https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins.

Here’s how I think of it: if it helps me run WPMU, it goes in mu-plugins. If it helps me or a member blog, it goes in wp-content/plugins.

Everything in wp-content/plugins shows up in Plugins for activation/deactivation.

Howdy, the area I think you are talking about is the default form when you view a member’s profile right? ‘me’ > profile > public. The template that generates that screen is in /member-themes/buddypress-member/profile/index.php

You’ll see the calls to generate all the sections on that page. One of them is the wire. Line 47:

<?php bp_wire_get_post_list( bp_current_user_id()… and so on …

You were gonna make a copy of the theme, make whatever changes you need to run a custom bp member theme and edit that one right? I think it’s in the bp rules and code of conduct. I’ll have to check.

depends on where do you want put your widgets

I use media temple, cheapest VPS. Never had a problem regarding getting WordPress MU or BuddyPress to work with them. Hope that helps.

It should work adding for example <?php wp_tag_cloud(”); ?>, bp is always wordpress, don’t forget !
