BuddyPress.org

Try this plugin:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/restricted-site-access/

`
Just place this between opening and closing php tags in the bp-custom.php file:

`
On the below line you can change the /register to the page you want them redirected too!
wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/register’ );
For example:
wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/activity’ );

Whoa – great question/post @mcgrafx!

I’ve spent the better part of the past ~ 14 months doing:

1. Customized, professional child theme designs for Buddypress (The design takes the most time) √
2. Many levels of membership (some paid, some free) √
3. Many++ sleepless nights to do points 1 & 2 (on WordPress multisite + Buddypress + bbPress)

Many of the issues you’ve mentioned, particularly the contracts/fees/maintenance are issues I’ve struggled with in the past, and to a certain extent still do with some clients/projects. I’ll re-read this closer next week, but one thing, only based on my own experience working with buddypress & bbPress w/ clients is that anything involving buddypress (particularly with any full-design customization w/ child themes &/or custom plugin/functionality development as you’ve mentioned) is a ‘significant’ commitment of time + resources on both sides of the table. In my experience, very little happens along the path to ‘outside-the-box-customization’ auto-magically with buddypress! If it were me, I’d ask for 1. a retainer 2. a monthly or yearly mutually-binding contract (depending on the scope/scale – with separate parts for developing the site + future-maintenance ). You could also think about 3. a percentage of future revenue, but that might be more closely tied with being a co-founder & could basically dilute the potential for points 1 & 2.

Still, a great & difficult question – good luck!

hi @adrian_22,

give this a try: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wysija-newsletters/

Hi @hsutliff,

try by adding this to your theme functions.php
remove_filter( ‘bp_get_the_profile_field_value’,  ‘wpautop’ );

If you want to know all filters used on xprofile, simply read the file /bp-xprofile/bp-xprofile-filters.php
About wpautop: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wpautop

Don’t quite understand

i dont think its supported anymore

The plugin author still replies to queries at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wp-user-frontend up to, well, 30 minutes ago !

Am glad though that

wp user frontend brought me much closer to what I wanted!

There was another plugin Quick Post Widget which was really superb but unfortunately vulnerabilities were identified and apparently it was withdrawn from the wordpress repository and to-date has not been updated. I presume a good coder (not me) could fork this so that the vulnerabilities were eliminated!

@saukgp try http://buddydev.com/buddypress/introducing-buddyblog-allow-users-to-blog-from-their-buddypress-profile/ cool thing is that the posts created by the user will be shown in user’s BP profile page as well.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-block-activity-stream-types/

This plugin blocks any activity type you define.

I am absolutely certain I’ve answered this same question somewhere else, a few days ago. Please don’t ask for support for the same issue multiple times. I’d prefer Welcome Pack questions on the WordPress.org plugin support forums, too, please 🙂

Depending on your computer, you need to hold CTRL and click on each item. If you’re on a Mac, hold the CMD key.

This needs to go on Cubepoints’ support forum on WordPress.org.

– What you need to know about WordPress MU : https://mu.wordpress.org/

– While using WP 3.5.1 you can activate a network by adding define multisite=true into wp-config.
Aside, you have two possibilities: sub-folder sites (hxxp://example.com/my_second_site/ or sub-directory site (my_second_site.example.com/) This choice need a wildcard on your host DNS. Both need also some consequent storage capabilities and preferably a VPS/VPN/dedicated server.
– The main site is where WP is installed (normally at the root > hxxp://example.com/wp-content, etc)

– Now you install BP and give your members the possibility to create a blog (or not, and you create them yourself). Those blogs will appear on the BP Blog Directory. Each blog has his own admin interface and individual settings and theming. From the main blog you have to allow or not some of these settings and themes/plugins

– <cite>BP Root Blog and for what purpose?</cite> defining a root blog gives priority to the designed blog over other blogs, activities and different other informations (i.e  latest post in the latest post widget) Secondary blog posts will only appear in the site wide activity and on their own sidebar, if the latest post widget is set (for example).

BP shows only a community style template sytem (over some customised components), but it is WP who manage the network.

i recommand you to read the WP codex:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network
https://codex.wordpress.org/Multisite_Network_Administration

also test a fully operationnal BP install on http://testbp.org/ to try to undestand how all this works. 🙂

is it the adminbar u are talking about… the gray thing in the top that says buddypress.org this should be translated together with your wordpress site 😉

Is there an ETA on 1.7?

I’m waiting for its release to do a major upgrade on both WordPress and BuddyPress all at once …

click blog above and download 1.7 beta, it will work with WordPress thene without modifications

@hnla @musadiqmarhaban I just checked and found out that Custom Community submitted new version of the theme for review. It’s already approved but may take a week before it’s pushed live to extend. You can download the zip file linked on this page https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/11253

This is just a suggestion, but why don’t you try out the Responsive theme. and make a child theme of it and edit it to your hearts content. It will look nice!
