BuddyPress.org

If you want to use the bbPress plugin instead of the bundled forums in BuddyPress, try these steps:

1. Login to the WP admin dashboard, navigate to “Settings > BuddyPress“. Enable the “Discussion Forums” component and save.
2. Navigate to “Settings > BuddyPress“.  Click on the “Pages” tab.  Under “Discussion Forums”, select “None” and save.
3. Navigate back to “Settings > BuddyPress“.  Make sure you’re on the “Components” tab. Uncheck the “Discussion Forums” component and save.

Edit your “Community” page in WordPress, add the shortcode:

[bbp-forum-index]

On a separate line and without any special tags or characters around it.  If you’re using the Visual Editor, change to “Text” mode to ensure there are no special tags.

See if that helps.

I’d check out the BP Skeleton Component sample plugin.  That should show you how to extend the BP_Component class for your new plugin.

This plugin hasn’t been updated in over 2 years. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.

more info on possibly fixing it:

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-buddypress-like-does-not-work-with-buddypress-16?replies=5

also, is there some reason why favoriting things is isn’t doing the same job for you already?

If the themes state they are compatible with the latest versions of WordPress, and they don’t work, you ought to contact their authors to let them know there’s a problem. This topic doesn’t help anyone; it’s just a moan.

That plugin is long broken as Tinychat no longer provides API codes and I’m not sure if the plugin’s actual makeup is up-to-date with the latest WordPress.

isn’t that a wordpress question? doesn’t seem like anything that’s specific to buddypress, your complaint.

I’m looking for this too and need it urgently. It is just like the bbpress topics for posts plugin but the topics are to be replaced by groups. Or the wordpress comments are to be relaced by groups. Just like “topics for posts”

Ah hah. If you are getting warnings about “wp_get_theme”, you mustn’t be on WordPress 3.4+. You’ll need to downgrade BuddyPress, or upgrade WordPress (preferably the latter).
See this table for version requirements https://codex.buddypress.org/releases/

i think 2 plugins every popular buddypress site should have are:

User Role Editor WordPress plugin – Change roles easily

and

hope that helps!

I am doing my own Members search form and I have some trouble with pagination. The pagination links is display but links doesn’t show anything.

Your plugin bp member filter could help me. It isn’t available here and in wordpress repository. Where I can download it ?

Thanks

I am having the exact same problem. I submitted it as a ticket:

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/4706

What is happening is its trying to redirect to the home tab, then the change default filter moves it to the other tab, which causes the loop.

Until its fixed simply add ‘/home’ to the line mentioned in the ticket.

#1 there are a couple of options actually in your network admin network settings.

#2 you can also network activate the themes if choose.

#3 correct

#4 not necessarily if they understand css it should be fairly easy also depending on the built in them options they will not be able to “modify” the them files themselves

#5 buddypress certainly makes the whole site creation process more visible since a normal wordpress install doesn’t really do that at all (at least i don’t think it does).

#6 yes thats why they can’t do it only the network admin has the ability to add new theme/plugins.

#7 the only difference is the ability to admin their own sites but there are different settings to where they couldn’t even create them themselves (you’d have to activate any sub sites if you choose that option).

To use a file for the page content you do a locate template in the function instead of putting the actual code in the function.

Get the BuddyPress skeleton component plugin. It has commented code to show you how to create custom BuddyPress components. Though, you can utilize simple wordPress page templates to accomplish a page with custom content. If the content doesnt need to be initiated into the active components then a page will do.

Hi,

View here first: https://wordpress.org/search/mysql2date

and try by replacing from

echo sprintf( __( ‘%1$s said %2$s:’, ‘buddypress’ );

to

echo mysql2date('D, d M Y H:i:s O', bp_activity_get_last_updated(), true);

This is what is used to show the date on feeds, witch has the same output you want. Maybe would work ? 😀
