BuddyPress.org

https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2462 ? Does it fix when you refresh the page?

BuddyPress is a WordPress plugin (obviously), and as that setting is a WordPress option, it’ll take affect anywhere. Where exactly do you see the Register button on your site if not on a BuddyPress template page?

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/welcome-pack/ doesn’t have collapsible tree but a very good start.

Change to bp-default theme and you’ll see all the Pages generated so far. Use custom menu feature and choose which links you want to be there in main navigation. https://codex.buddypress.org/extending-buddypress/how-to-set-up-your-main-site-navigation-using-the-built-in-wordpress-menus/

I installed it and got this error:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/peterbuj/public_html/bluconvo.com/wp-content/plugins/bp-better-directories/includes/admin.php on line 42

If anyone knows what is going on, let us know.

@ssoskriszta – just to note that you’ve got a better chance of being helped over at WP.org forums for that specific plugin – https://wordpress.org/tags/bwp-recaptcha

Apologies for resurrecting this old thread, but I’m hoping someone might be able to help.

I’ve been trying to use the Import from Ning plugin to import users from a CSV file. I created the CSV file manually – the users were originally listed in a plain html file.

My problem is that when I try to import, the plugin says:

“In order to run the importer, you must first use your FTP program to upload the contents of your Ning export into a directory called ning-files in your wp-content directory. The plugin couldn’t find a valid members file at /home/mp83lbho/public_html/w/wp-content/ning-files/ning-members-local.json, which probably means that you haven’t uploaded the files to the right place. Upload your unzipped export to the json directory, and try visiting this page again.

If you’re sure that your files are in the right place, then the most likely explanation is that your ning-members-local.json file is invalidly formatted. Contact Ning to ask about getting a new one.”

I’ve tried creating a blank json file with that name, in the right location, with no luck.

Creating a json file itself seems pretty simple too (I’ve been looking at http://json.org/example.html), but I’m confused as to what it needs to contain – do I add all the user info into the json, or is the json file just to tell the plugin what information from the CSV goes where?

If anyone could throw some light on this that would be great, or upload a sample json file with accompanying CSV.

Thanks

In the current BP system, you’d need to create groups for each of your cities.
Then enable the discussion forum for each group and you should be good.

You might be more interested in using the bbPress forum plugin:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress

An example of the bbPress plugin in action can be found here:
http://testbp.org/discussion/

Full BuddyPress integration with bbPress is scheduled for the next major release of BP, v1.6.

@porscheheritage – BP 1.5 requires at least WP 3.2; upgrade your WordPress install to WP 3.2 and you should be good!

What @modemlooper said, definitely the easiest and simplest way to do it, but if you want to integrate with certain activities, posts etc, try: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-share-it
However, this doesn’t exclude anything, which means EVERY activity can be posted.

now, if only you could combine the awesome Buddypress extras from etivite: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-activity-stream-extras/ then you’d have a killer combo

#update – sorry they will have access to the /wp-admin/ page but it will have no functionality.
The previous link I posted clarifies the role capabilities well. If that is your primary confusion.

Hi, this link shows the roles and levels of access each role has. I think the best way would be to put ‘subscriber’ as the default user level. this way they won’t have access to /wp-admin/ page.

Have you checked out theme authors’ forums http://themekraft.com/forums/ or updates as they usually post the latest updated Custom Community theme at github https://github.com/Themekraft/Custom-Community before it’s released at WordPress.org themes page

A quick and easy way to hide the credits is to go to Appearance > Theme settings and choose the css tab
add the following:

.credits {display:none !important;}

I don’t know if i’ve found the right theme: https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/platform – if so the lastest version appears to be 1.3.9.

I’ve just downloaded it and can’t find any of the bp templates in 1.3.8 / 1.3.9 that one would expect in a bp compatible theme…..

There were quite significant changes in the last major buddypress upgrade to 1.5+ so a theme often needs to be upgraded as well

WP/BP version? What theme are you using? If you’re using theme other than bp-default or bp-default child theme, then check if you have this file in your theme https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/1.5.1/bp-themes/bp-default/members/single/profile/edit.php

== Even with my wordpress.org account I get the same error ==
You use the same username and password to log into WordPress.org and BuddyPress.org, among others. Since you were able to log in and post here, you should be able to log in and post in WordPress.org forums with same username and password.

If you still cannot do so, go to http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-forums

Hello.

I have a Buddypress site using buddypress 1.5.1, bbpress 2.0.2, and WordPress 3.2.1.
I am hosting our site on Godaddy. The main files of WordPress are sitting the site’s root directory as to avoid the “/WordPress” in our url.

Anyway my issue is this: we are using the Default bp theme. I know you are supposed to create a child theme to make changes to the theme, so I am trying to find the code of file where I can add a “tab” at the top of the page under the heading along with “Home”, “Forum”, “Groups”, “Members”, that would be titled, “About”. I want there to just be an “About” tab next to the home tab. If I have to make a child theme, where would I make this change OR should I just make a stick post?

See: https://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_Reading_Screen

This doesn’t appear to have anything to do with buddypress.

Unless you have installed and activated (or plan to activate) the buddypress plugin you should really ask any further questions on http://wordpress.org or maybe http://themekraft.com/forums (as you credit their themes)…
