BuddyPress.org

I also found a really nice plugin here that seems to do the job. Is that the one you’re referring to?

Hi @funmi-omoba, @bp-help, @hnla

Thank’s funmi omoba for the post, i want tell you that the first version of plugin is now available for download from wordpress repo :

https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-wall/

I Hope the Buddypress users will enjoy the plugin.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Regards,

@iconimagery Not a BP issue at all. WordPress 3.6 has jQuery version 1.10.2
A WP theme or plugin should use jQuery version in WP core.

@mercime is right this is a javascript issue, cropping function conflicts with some code or plugin, happily I have discovered yesterday the same issue immediately after installing ajax message box in single.php from this site http://flintmaker.com/code/jquery-fade-message-in-or-out/ which I wanted to use to greet people with ajax message conditionally by knowing where are they from (using maxmind geoip which already works) and if they come from search engines, after removing that
line
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
from header.php cropping function start to work again, on wordpress.stackexchange.com are many answers (one of them cropping related and most of them speaks about this solution in code below in functions.php or bp_custom.php what are solutions which doesn’t work for me too 🙁

// Javascript conflict
function mytheme_enqueue_scripts() {
       wp_deregister_script('jquery');
       wp_register_script('jquery', ("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"), false, '1.4.2');
       wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'mytheme_enqueue_scripts');

Hopefully @mercime should help me how to avoid this js conflict, I am unfortunately not able to use ajax-admin.php instead jquery as most people there advice to use.
WP 3.6 and BP 1.8 beta2 and I use bp default theme

@leonardlapena glad you resolved the issue. Marking this topic as such.

As for BP themes, I roll out my own BP Default Child themes. Nearly all WordPress themes are compatible with BuddyPress. Issues arise in some premium themes which have proprietary templating systems which lock in the user to the theme at times. Some of those could be resolved by the theme author, some not.

@techknowledgic upon further check, the problem is that your theme is loading the old jquery 1.7.2 version from Google
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
while WP/BP are using jQuery v1.10.2
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.techknowledgic.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js'></script>

This is a theme issue. Themes and plugins should use the jQuery version packaged with WordPress. Please contact theme author.

@maspegren you might want to check out the BP GTM System plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-gtm-system/ but it hasn’t been updated for some time.

@alanniemies you might want to check out how it’s done https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-user-account-type-lite/

@cupid4 you mean something like this? http://wpmu.org/how-to-build-a-facebook-style-members-only-wordpress-buddypress-site/

I had no luck with any code here. I used Theme My Login plugin and it worked like a charm. The custom page is displayed even on error.

Making WordPress SEO plugin compatible with BuddyPress

You just need to tweak CSS a little afterwards.

Well i think you have some competition already but there’s certainly nothing wrong with a new outfit trying to help promote what can be done with wordpress/buddypress so i think you would be welcomed in that endeavor. Not sure i have a good answer for that last one maybe sites like yours? If your site becomes popular and effective enough perhaps even more mainstream sites? i hear there is a new wordpress focused media outfit at torquemag.io maybe they have some interest?

Are you using the default theme provided by WordPress? Have you installed bbpress?
To go to BuddyPress settings, go to
Settings > Buddypress..

Hi,
At the heart of BuddyPress it’s simply a plugin that has a range of components making community features capable on a WordPress site. However, it’s much more than that. Think of it as a toolkit, you can bring in whatever works for the site you are going to create. However, like a toolkit you would rarely use everything on every project. You may use activity streams, maybe profiles on a site – not every site is the same.

The start of every BuddyPress site really comes the thinking about what your community will need. Then you pick the components that fit the community.

Hopefully that helps?

@gunsblazen
Haven’t tried this one yet because I usually build my own redirect functions but it may fit your requirements.

@3×7
Not a plugin but a tutorial. You may need to make adjustments depending on your theme but it is pretty straightforward if you know what parts need to be modified. I advise to only use this on a child theme as does the tutorial.

“BuddyPress does not work on installations where you give WordPress its own directory.”

@lwist That is true. Read the link about that specific WP install “in its own directory” https://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory, it involves moving htaccess file and index.php from the subdirectory where WP is installed to domain root, among others. That scenario is totally different from installing WP in subdirectory e.g. example.com/buddypress and keeping every WP file in that subdirectory. There’s no conflict at all.

formatting on that section of the page is kind of messed up

Looks fine to me in FF. What browser are you using?
