BuddyPress.org

This should be fixed in the latest trunk version of BuddyPress.

However, if you need to fix this for BP 1.6.1, apply this change to your 1.6.1 install:
https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/6332

If that doesn’t work, let us know.

@bjwangschowe Yes, for BP, it is Admin and everything else. There’s of course the Group Admin/Mods which are limited to the Group Forums only.

I’ve heard of people building this for their own sites, but I’ve not seen any plugins that offer this. But I haven’t search through wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ to check — have you?

You can have 1 BuddyPress per WordPress network (a standard multisite gives you one network). You need to enable it sitewide, and set up the configuration from the root blog (the blog with ID = 1).

You do not need to enable multiblog. I wish that setting didn’t exist.

@neekolaus – you can build a directory site with reviews on top of BuddyPress.

http://plazaa.de (built by Poolie) and http://enterprisenation.com (our own work) are good examples built on BuddyPress.

You would use WordPress custom post types to model the studios, with BuddyPress handling the user accounts. The custom posts types can be integrated with BuddyPress based profiles giving you a seamless experience. For ratings / reviews, GD star rating is one of the more complete plugin solutions.

Unfortunately, it’s not something you could tackle with basic web development skills – it would require fairly advanced PHP, WordPress, BuddyPress knowledge. We’ve built a number of bespoke directory type sites, but I don’t know of anyone providing a good ‘off the shelf’ solution (yet!!).

It has been done with 5 star rating system here: http://kaformedia.com/site/user-rating-and-reviews-plugin-rate-user-by-profile-wordpressbuddypress/

Of course a point system you can create with cubepoints https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cubepoints/

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-group-reviews

This works like the plugin reviews on this site. Example: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-xprofile-custom-fields-type/reviews/

You can turn groups into “Studios” by creating a language file and changing all instances of Group/Groups to Studio https://codex.buddypress.org/translations/

Can WordPress even handle multiple authors of the same post by default? I’m quite sure it cannot.

Are you using the Co-Authors Plus plugin? If so, that plugin comes with some template tags that you could use with that Code Canyon plugin:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/co-authors-plus/other_notes/

You could bug the Code Canyon author to add BP support as well.

Jessykuh – Try navigating to your WordPress Menu screen to manually add the trailing slash:

Hi I have the same problem,

When I try to click ‘Activity’ ‘Members’ or ‘Groups’ on my menu, it says ‘profile.php’ can not be found on my server. However if I add a ‘/’ to the end of the link or if I click on the pages elsewhere, it works fine. I’m not sure how to fix it on my main menu though.

I have re-installed BuddyPress and WordPress already and nothing changed.

Can someone please help?

My website is http://www.fosterfriends.org

Not aware of any, but you can search on wordpress.org/extend/plugins/

If they’re not letting you upgrade WordPress to the latest secure version, why do you consider your data safe? Find a better host.

@djpaul is right but have at it at your own risk:

Edit:

@a-swede-in-greece there are two BuddyPress Media plugins which have own forums
– BP Media plugin -> https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-album/forum/
– BP Media Component plugin -> https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-media/ and click on support tab

== blog- as well as(or) a business directory plugin which we can ad ==
I assume you mean external blogs. Try https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-links/screenshots/ or adapt it to fit to your needs.

WP touch doesnt have the theme files to work with BuddyPress.

Options are to use a responsive theme, create your own custom solution or use https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-mobile

WP Touch might work with BP 1.7 as BP 1.7 will use page templates to output markup. 1.7 is probably at least a few months away.

Hi,

Thank you both ! Mashant is indeed created with WordPress & Buddypress. When we decided to create a social network for developers, we immediately opted for BuddyPress.

This plugin has saved us a lot of time. Moreover it is very flexible, we do not regret our choice

Hope this helps: http://labzip.com/develop-wordpress-sites-locally-then-deploy-with-git-tower-beanstalk-thanks-chris-coyier-mark-jaquith/

You have to create forums first. See picture above, Forums > Add New then create name of the forum and publish the post. Add new forums as needed.
