BuddyPress.org

@parmkals
As @ubernaut stated I would FTP BuddyPress because if you do not have access to the php.ini then you can not change it and it may hang when downloading and installing BP. If that is the case then just download BP to your hard drive extract it and FTP it to: your-site/wp-content/plugins on your server. You will need the credentials from the server to do this and that is something only you can acquire. I supplied a link that will hopefully help you get started if your not familiar with this process. Good luck!

@mercime

@faramarz thanks for posting the error, see https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/fatal-error-unable-to-create-forum-from-buddypress-group/#post-135487

EDIT – Trac Ticket at https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2374

However as this post suggests and others this issue is perhaps not bbPress specific but BP and needs a trac entry on bp rather than bbPress.

@zanora

https://wordpress.org/plugins/debug-bar-bbpress/ will show you what bbpress templates are used.

This works as an add-on to https://wordpress.org/plugins/debug-bar/ which is in itself useful when editing stuff…

I have disabled all plugins and have the latest version of Buddypress and WordPress on a multisite installation. On the registration page the username field insists on lowercase characters. The only way around this for me is to change the hint.

Which file do I edit to change hint from “Usernames can contain only letters, numbers, ., -, *, and @” to something like “Usernames can contain only lowercase letters, numbers, ., -, *, and @”

Hey guys! I’m the owner of BuddyBoss and just reading though these comments. We have a mobile version coming out August 15th. You can see the demo here: http://www.buddyboss.com/demo/

@flyveren Thanks for the compliments 🙂 We work hard to keep everything up to date. This new version is built around BuddyPress 1.7 / 1.8, the way BP now allows any WordPress theme to work with it. We rebuilt it as a standard WordPress theme with our custom features only used when BuddyPress is activated.

Curious to see that @puggy! It seems that most ESO fansites I’ve seen are using WordPress — and for great reason, though none pull it off as well as Tamriel Foundry does, if I’m being completely honest. When I created TESOF, I originally intended it to be just a forum, so it was quite a bit of hassle to create certain sections based off of the MyBB forum software itself.

Since Curse, Inc. now owns TESOF, I won’t be taking part in much of the development, but I am making a new project based off of the WordPress/BuddyPress/bbPress combo (unrelated to ESO), and it’s coming along nicely. You can see most of that development on my personal blog. Most of my posts for the last few months are about the new project.

Annnnd, that’s enough of me hijacking @aaclayton’s topic. Keep up the good work with TF, you guys are really flourishing!

Here’s to the Elder Scrolls Online. *Takes a drink*

I also found a really nice plugin here that seems to do the job. Is that the one you’re referring to?

Hi @funmi-omoba, @bp-help, @hnla

Thank’s funmi omoba for the post, i want tell you that the first version of plugin is now available for download from wordpress repo :

https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-wall/

I Hope the Buddypress users will enjoy the plugin.
Any suggestions are welcome.

Regards,

@iconimagery Not a BP issue at all. WordPress 3.6 has jQuery version 1.10.2
A WP theme or plugin should use jQuery version in WP core.

@mercime is right this is a javascript issue, cropping function conflicts with some code or plugin, happily I have discovered yesterday the same issue immediately after installing ajax message box in single.php from this site http://flintmaker.com/code/jquery-fade-message-in-or-out/ which I wanted to use to greet people with ajax message conditionally by knowing where are they from (using maxmind geoip which already works) and if they come from search engines, after removing that
line
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
from header.php cropping function start to work again, on wordpress.stackexchange.com are many answers (one of them cropping related and most of them speaks about this solution in code below in functions.php or bp_custom.php what are solutions which doesn’t work for me too 🙁

// Javascript conflict
function mytheme_enqueue_scripts() {
       wp_deregister_script('jquery');
       wp_register_script('jquery', ("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"), false, '1.4.2');
       wp_enqueue_script('jquery');
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'mytheme_enqueue_scripts');

Hopefully @mercime should help me how to avoid this js conflict, I am unfortunately not able to use ajax-admin.php instead jquery as most people there advice to use.
WP 3.6 and BP 1.8 beta2 and I use bp default theme

@leonardlapena glad you resolved the issue. Marking this topic as such.

As for BP themes, I roll out my own BP Default Child themes. Nearly all WordPress themes are compatible with BuddyPress. Issues arise in some premium themes which have proprietary templating systems which lock in the user to the theme at times. Some of those could be resolved by the theme author, some not.

@techknowledgic upon further check, the problem is that your theme is loading the old jquery 1.7.2 version from Google
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
while WP/BP are using jQuery v1.10.2
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://www.techknowledgic.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js'></script>

This is a theme issue. Themes and plugins should use the jQuery version packaged with WordPress. Please contact theme author.

@maspegren you might want to check out the BP GTM System plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-gtm-system/ but it hasn’t been updated for some time.

@alanniemies you might want to check out how it’s done https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress-user-account-type-lite/

@cupid4 you mean something like this? http://wpmu.org/how-to-build-a-facebook-style-members-only-wordpress-buddypress-site/
