I’ve got this working for the most part on a testing site. I’m using mapped domains that use WordPress’ network functionality.

I’ve got Buddypress working, using the same community throughout the network, but it’s tricky. You have to configure buddypress the same under each site. It works, but I’ve got one small problem. When you create a group under one “site”, the group avatar doesn’t show up when you view it in the other domains.

For example, my base domain is FanCentral.co:

http://fancentral.co/groups/carolina-panthers/ (see the avatar)
– this was created under this base domain

http://charlotte.fancentral.co/groups/carolina-panthers/ (no avatar)

http://fancentral.co/groups/charlotte-hornets/ (no avatar)
– this was created under the “Charlotte” subdomain

http://charlotte.fancentral.co/groups/charlotte-hornets/ (see the avatar)

Compare the two:
http://charlotte.fancentral.co/groups
http://fancentral.co/groups

And one that hasn’t been configured yet:
http://newyork.fancentral.co/groups

there’s no easy answer but check out wangguard it helps a lot:

Suggestion: what if you create a separate page for post submission, and use plugin which move their posts into your blog/post page, allows you to set as to pending to restrict automatic posting into your blog page. see plugin link below

Have you tried BuddyPress Usernames Only? https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-usernames-only/

I use this plugin for that: https://wordpress.org/plugins/private-community-for-bp-lite/

“Makes BP pages private and only accessible to logged in users with the exception of the pages you set.”

Well @RukiaR7 what you are asking for has been demanded in these forums time and time again but no one has really ever coded this kind of plugin however i am working on a project like that for http://www.pressbooker.com My team just finished the first plugin today which is the facebooklike toolbar for the wordpress adminbar. What i will be building is similar but a little different in that people who have different profile types for different user roles they signed up from. And admin will be able to choose which profile is neccessary for which user role.For the first time facebook timeline will be coming into plugin develoment on wordpress and buddypress. If you are interested please hire me at once. It will be only for a week and you get it.

@rossagrant in that case it might be worth raising a WP Trac ticket as oEmbeds are handled by the WP core:

Hi @adcurtisshawca,

are you running a wordpress multisite/network?

I see posts that say this is set in SETTINGS – BLOGS but I do not see such an option in my installation.

I think this refers to a multisite installation.
If you run a single site, maybe there’s some bug in the Theme My Login plugin. Disable it an try again. There are other plugins with similar functions.

Merry x-mas!

I happen to see this while searching for other plugins. Don’t know anything about it, but it sounds like what you are after: https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-profile-view-from-admin/

I like this idea. It would make a fab plugin if someone can package it up well.

I’m not sure BP core needs a timezone field by default, but if we can do anything to make filtering/re-calculating the dates easier (e.g. add a filter, or so), don’t hesitate to ask! Create an enhancement request on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org and I’ll get it into BP 2.0

Going to close this topic as you’ve found a solution over at WordPress.org.

I haven’t any good suggestions for your search for a good groups plugin, but if you do use Achievements (I’m the author), please leave me a review and some feedback on that WordPress.org page — thanks 🙂

This is a bit “over the top” for the site I’m currently working on, but it looks promising:

Achievements for WordPress

it’s not difficult even i have one and i don’t know lick of php.

@colabsadmin

Ah, didn’t notice that instruction, just looked at the code.
( It’s surprising how many plugins leave in that kind of code. )

>I’m new to wordpress/buddypress so writing a plugin isn’t going to happen anytime soon

You’ve already done a good chunk of the work.
If you and/or @henrywright-1 want to draft a plugin, I’d be willing to get involved.

Then you will be stuck with a broken site. If you can get the theme developer to remove BuddyPress from the theme and allow it to use BP theme compatibility then your theme will work into the future.

I know this isn’t something you want to hear but it is better in the long run to have theme compatibility. BP 1.9.1 will have a fix for notifications display. This will be the final feature fix. You have the options of removing BuddyPress from your theme or using a new WordPress theme.

Appearance > Themes in the WordPress admin. Activate a different theme.

It has been known for some time that bp-default is getting phased out and new features will not work on it.

Any well coded WordPress theme should work well with BuddyPress.

>they can see the list of members in either alphabetical order or by date of last visit.

You’re referring to the Members page?
And you want to show a profile field ( country ) for each member?

You may be interested in this premium plugin:

>Is it possible for the members to add several pictures, up to 5 for instance?
You need to add a gallery plugin, like https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-media/

Do your app will have the capacity to display wordpress blog articles and some RSS flux (used for custom post type display) ?
