BuddyPress.org

@mercime Yes, they are all blank because I haven’t attempted integrating them yet. I don’t know code (just basic wordpress user here) so I was afraid I would mess things up if I started messing around, especially since the karma theme wasn’t made for buddypress. I contacted an outside expert to help me but just wanted to reach out to someone who possibly used buddypress with karma to see how it worked out, if it worked well, before I pay this person and take all this time to try to make it work. (BP Version 1.5.5, Karma 2.6.9, WP Version 3.3.2)

You will need to make a function that finds the role for the displayed user.
See: https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_User
You will want to use a BuddyPress function in the ID paramenter instead of the wordpress functions shown in that codex article (see BP codex).

Havn’t looked into it fully for what your trying to do, but you will proburbly want to filter ‘bp_core_get_username’ and echo the function we made above.

Well, it’s one of the things I am more interested in to look at adding to core. Of course, just like anyone else, I need to make the case to the rest of the team that there ought to be a Like in BuddyPress, which is why I had a bit of an experiment in my Labs plugin.

If people like the idea for core, I would suggest they think the idea of a Like button through — bearing in mind we are changing how theming will be easier in 1.7 — in terms of where the button(s) should be, what should it do, any options it might merit, how it would replace Activity’s existing Favourite button. Perhaps even think about how it could be implemented in the code, and where the likes should be stored in a database, and how other 3rd party plugins could extend the Like button (I might want to make it work with my Achievements for BuddyPress, for example).

Once you’ve got something meaty, either post it somewhere on the BuddyPress.org forums, or make an enhancement ticket on https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/

Something like this would do what you are looking for: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/custom-profile-filters-for-buddypress/

I run it on a School Board site where students and teachers self identify what school they are from in a dropdown, and that link takes you to a member directory of all of the users who selected something similar.

If the options were small enough, you could probably create a custom menu for each item that would take people to the listing for each selection using the URL format: http://domain.com/members/?s=photographer.

You could do it manually with something like this: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-verified/. I’m not savvy enough to suggest how something like this could be built, but you might find that this is a good starting point.

Not sure exactly what you mean here, but you might want to look at the Curator plugin here: http://wpebooks.com/curator/ to select posts from users blogs. I’m thinking you aren’t running a multisite install though, so another option would be somehow capture an RSS feed of your “favorites” and then feed them back to the blog. You would need to be very purposeful about your use of the Favorites button, but it seems that an RSS feed exists at domain.com/members/username/activity/favorites/feed (I haven’t tested this too deeply, but adding the word feed to the end of that URL opened up a listing of my favorites in a feed reader) that you could feed back into your blog with something like this https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/feedwordpress/ to create the combination. Alternatively you could use the RSS Widget to highlight favorite videos on the sidebar.

That would be at line 27 of https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.5/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/register.php which should be located at wp-content/themes/yourCurrentTheme/registration/register.php

Please post at https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-jobs-board/ which has its own feed which some follow and at http://jobs.wordpress.net/

WordPress doesn’t come with a moderator role. This makes me thing you have some other plugins running, which add a role.

Do you really mean WordPress blog Posts? Or do you mean some other type of content?

Does one of these avatars (say, a group avatar) work on one site, but not the others? Can you share the URLs to the images that the default theme gives you? Can you confirm the version of WordPress and BuddyPress that you’re running?

I saw the same question at stackexchange and it’s answered there

== ‘The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Activity Streams, Discussion Forums, User Groups, Members, Activate, Register. (REPAIR)’. ==

@rbrtah Your issue is different. The message means that you haven’t gone through the Installation Wizard. Click on (Repair) or go to dashboard menu BuddyPress > Pages and associate the BuddyPress components with respective pages.

Thanks for answering so quickly, @mercime. Here is the error message I am getting: ‘The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Activity Streams, Discussion Forums, User Groups, Members, Activate, Register. (REPAIR)’.

Do you think the “fix” you suggested would work for this error? If so, I will try it. Am new to WP and a bit nervous about making too many changes in unfamiliar territory. I appreciate your help.

@nickharambee Remove the BP Component Pages you want to make private from the custom menu https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/how-to-set-up-your-main-site-navigation-using-the-built-in-wordpress-menus/

Add the following to your theme’s or child theme’s functions.php file

add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'mme_loggedin_only_links' );
function mme_loggedin_only_links($items) {
if (!is_user_logged_in())
return $items;
else
$ouractivity = '<li><a href="' . home_url('/') . 'activity' . '">' . __('Activity', 'buddypress' ) . '</a></li>';
$ourmembers = '<li><a href="' . home_url('/') . 'members' . '">' . __('Members', 'buddypress' ) . '</a></li>';
$ourgroups = '<li><a href="' . home_url('/') . 'groups' . '">' . __('Groups', 'buddypress' ) . '</a></li>';
$ourgroupforums = '<li><a href="' . home_url('/') . 'forums' . '">' . __('Forums', 'buddypress' ) . '</a></li>';
$items = $items . $ouractivity;
$items = $items . $ourmembers;
$items = $items  . $ourgroups;
$items = $items . $ourgroupforums;
return $items;

@michaeljdornan There are two plugins for multiple BP sites in one WPMultisite installation

1. BP MultiNetwork – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-multi-network/ which requires WP MultiNetwork or Networks+

2. BuddyPress Multi-Network – http://buddydev.com/buddypress/introducing-buddypress-multi-network-plugin-create-multiple-separate-social-networks-on-a-single-buddypress-install/ which you can use with Join Blog Widget plugin which you’ll find in the same site.
