@allveganspot,

if you have only one blog, you can give a author status to desired members.
If you have a multisite install, each member can create his own blog.

Updates are acessible to any member and can be used with videos and photos.

If you need some fake content to see how BP&bbBP are working together, use BP Default Data plugin.

Hi @beenvy2

The colour can be changed via CSS. If you’re not familiar with CSS, take a look at this tutorial to get you started.

Info specific to WordPress can be found in the CSS Codex article.

I wouldn’t advise editing the user IDs in the database as I have no idea what would happen when WordPress wants to allocate an ID to the next newest member and you’ve already used that particular ID.

Which number would you like to start at? If it’s not very big then you could always create some dummy users yourself which would take up the first few IDs? Once real users begin to sign up you can delete the dummy users. To my knowledge, the dummy user IDs won’t get recycled.

@sapinfoasap,

use some wordpress filter to achieve this correctly.
Read this tutorial.

Hi @bacigaloop

Posts are displayed by single.php. Take a look in your theme to see if there is a hook available in that file. If not you could always add one yourself by creating a child theme.

Ref: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

@sapinfoasap,

Remove get_sidebar from the template ! Must be done on a child theme / check first your theme support.
Get an idea of how to do this here (as example)

@dylss505,

it’s an old topic related to BP 1.7. And @mercime already answered to the same question as yours.
Read about troubleshooting on the BP Codex.

FYI wp codex gives also general advice on how to debug. You may also find many related topics on this forum.

Please open a new topic and give your install type, theme name and used plugin and explain your problem, when it arrived, what you already tried, etc

Hi @jabbajabba,

create first a child-theme and add this snippet into functions.php or bp-custom.php

We are going to use one of the existing action hook in the group header template and add it a custom function.

function jabbajabba() {
	echo '<a href="#">click here</a>';
}
//add_action( 'bp_before_group_header_meta', 'jabbajabba' );
//add_action( 'bp_group_header_actions', 'jabbajabba' );
add_action( 'bp_group_header_meta', 'jabbajabba' );

The snippet has 2 commented action, so you can choose the best place for your link button.

Reference file is
buddypress/bp-templates/bp-legacy/buddypress/groups/single/group-header.php

oopsy spoke too quick, sorry. doing_action( ‘admin_init’ ) is only available since WordPress 3.9

Hi @presis_carsten,

could effectively be a translation issue. Why ?
For translation, we (i translate BP into french) mostly use HTML entities for special characters.
In brief, accented letters in HTML. For instance, if you want to type één you would type één.

The only part this should never be used is in the messages, as gettext doesn’t handle mail content.

And so far i see, the dutch phrase contains such an accented letter (beëindigen)

buddypress-nl_NL is here. And you’re free to modify it on Glotpress and of course in your copy, with poEdit or similar.

I checked WP & BP’s nl_NL version on Glotpress and didn’t find the phrase you mention. Could it be you use a very old translation or some notification plugin ?

Ajaxim related:
On the software install instructions page, there is a important notice.

Unlike Ajax IM 3.41 which was written in PHP, Ajax IM 4.0 uses Node.js. Node.js was chosen for scaling and extensibility but it also requires you to be on a VPS or dedicated server. Node.js and, thus, Ajax IM 4.0 will generally not work in shared hosting environments.

My subject knowledge HTML and CSS only!!

I suggest that you search some chat plugin on the WP repo, as it would be a less problem if you have no php knowledge.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=chat
https://wordpress.org/plugins/chat/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-group-tinychat/
etc…

@antimuffin (or anyone else) – Can you try the fix I posted here?

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5831#comment:3

i know some guys do not like codecanyon and the likes, but here is a guess on what you did not search yet:

@anivarth,

thesis:

We have many plugins […]Is there any other for free?

anti thesis:

I want to create a social networking site like facebook

Are you a poor ambitious dreamer ? 😉

See here what buddypress already can do, and read/learn here what you can do to approach something similar to FB.

It exist also some theme à la FB. One from many others.

Do you have a similar one for creating a child template?

No comprendo ?!!! Do you mean a tutorial for creating a child theme ?
https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/child-themes-basics-and-creating-child-themes-in-wordpress–wp-27475

Did you read both Codex articles ?

Do you know that search engines exist ?
