BuddyPress.org

When you say “make a post on the site” are you talking about a Blog post in a WordPress Multisite install, or an Activity Stream update? A blog post from a user will create a hyperlink on the Activity Stream that will go directly to that blog, but very much like on this site, if you click directly on the avatar of the user in question, you should be taken to their profile page, on which you will see a “Friend” button, a “Private Message” button etc.

Ensure that you have activated all of these items in the Network Admin/Buddypress Panel. It is possible that you have friend connections; private messages; profiles; etc turned off. Here’s a nice tutorial on setting up Buddypress 1.5 http://wpmu.org/the-illustrated-guide-to-installing-and-setting-up-buddypress-1-5/comment-page-1/

try to change the permlinks parm of your wordpress

you should implement or extend the roles of wordpress to work with, another solution is to use buddypress profile field’s and BuddyPress xProfiles ACL plugin to define roles

You would need to get the displayed bp user id for $userid

Did you try this?

Hi guys! I noticed that people actually like the system I rigged up, and that all my previous links were broken, so I tossed this together:

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-somewhat-ebay-esque-feedback-system-for-wpbp?replies=1

It’s a .zip file containing a step-by-step instruction readme for implementing the whole shebang (though I think I forgot to specify adding a “feedback” template), as well as current copies of all plugins used. Hope that helps!

Try this plugin (it displays the user’s country based on their IP):

To get the small flag to display directly beneath the logged-in user’s avatar, you could add the shortcode to your sidebar.php template, just before the closing tag of `

HI Everyone,

Can somebody help me with the ajax. The buddypress that I installed is not functioning at all. It’s not working in members, activity and some of the buddypress pages. I think it is a javascript. I am using stufe wordpress theme.

Response is highly appreciated. Thanks

It could. WordPress’ bundled version of jQuery adds an extra line so jQuery runs in noConflict mode by default.

Some plugins that use jQuery could break. Like Paul mentioned, try it and see!

Sounds like a good candidate for an enhancement ticket.

Please create a new ticket here:

Login with the same credentials you use here on bp.org.

If you need your users to create the nodes on the frontend, you’ll have to include some type of frontend post editor.

Frontend Editor by scribu works with custom post types and should hopefully work for most of your needs:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/front-end-editor/

As for BuddyPress, BuddyPress 1.5 has some hooks in the activity stream component so you could potentially add custom post types in the activity stream when such a post is made.

The hook you will be interested in particular is “bp_blogs_record_post_post_types” located in /bp-blogs/bp-blogs-functions.php.

Hope that helps!

I see the conflict. Your group forums URL is http://richard-dickinson.com/forums/ is the same as the URL of your SiteWide Forums which should not be the case.

A. If you want to keep the Forums slug for the group forums, then you have change slugs for the sitewide forums:
– Go to http://richard-dickinson.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbpress and change Archive Slugs (base) and Single Slugs. That is, change “Forums base” to somethig else like “Sitewide Forums” or “Discussions” and Save.

B. If you want the Forums slug for the Sitewide Forums, then you have to change the slug of the group forums:
– Go to Pages > All Pages and delete the “Forums” page. A notice will appear “.The following active BuddyPress Components do not have associated WordPress Pages: Discussion Forums.” Repair
– Click on “Repair” button and the BuddyPress > Pages panel will show up.
– On the “Discussion Forums” line, click on “New Page” button and the Page > Add New panel will show up on screen. This is where you’ll place the title for your group forums
– Type in e.g. Group Forums and click on Publish.
– Click on the “Repair” button and the BuddyPress > Pages panel will show up again. This time, in the “Discussion Forums” line, select the “Group Forums” page you recently created then click on Save.
– To check if your group forums are working with the new slug, go to http://yoursite.com/group-forums/ per title of the new page you created for the group forums.

After all this re-run permalinks == wp-admin > Settings > Permalinks > Save.

a) Did you test if your WordPress site could send emails before using BuddyPress? e.g. when you go to Add Users in wp-admin and tell it to email the password to the user.

b) People need to log in to your site at least once, after BuddyPress has been activated, to appear in the members directory list.

There seems to be some serious oversight in the latest version (1.5).
I’m not entirely clear from the above post, but I may have the reverse issue….
After the update my top level site works fine with the Community header features (Activity, Members, Blogs) working after the required plugin repair of the top level site, but the activity stream for each sub-blog on my multi-user installation links to a (non-existent) activity stream for that site, instead of the network.
So, the top level site http://retrofitdiaries.org/activity/ works fine, but for the member site http://member.retrofitdiaries.org the activity header links to http://penwithhousingpenzance.retrofitdiaries.org/activity/ whereas it should also link to http://retrofitdiaries.org/activity/ because that IS the Community. Calling community where it is one blog is meaningless!

Please let me know how this can be fixed.

Each community function can link to a WordPress page BUT this is what Buddypress is supposed to manage!

Thanks

I have the same issue I think. Just installed bp with wp yesterday through Godaddy hosting and I received this error today and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 98304 bytes) in Hosting8544710htmlwordpresswp-adminincludestemplate.php on line 1839

@ewebber What type of hosting environment are you in?

If in a shared hosting environment, it could be that your web hosting provider is simply limiting the amount of memory that can be used by a single script. If this is the case, increasing the memory that WordPress can use won’t have too much effect as you’ll still be limited by your providers software configuration.

From my experience, most shared hosting providers limit memory to 32MB (some less…). With WordPress really working best with 64MB+, if this is the case, you’ll run into these errors quite often.

@loudrake first, what theme are you using? If you have a WP theme and used the BP Template Pack plugin, which method did you use to make your WP theme compatible with BP – 1st method which changes more than a dozen BP template files or the 2nd method using header-/sidebar-buddypress.php?

All probability is that you’re used the first method and missed replacing the divs in all the required BP template files as listed here https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/wordpress-to-buddypress-theme/#tplfiles

@suziwilson congratulations on your pastebin post
To make sure that your code shows up in this forum, place backtick (`) the symbol within the parentheses at the beginning and at the end of your code. For long/big blocks of code, pastebin is better.

` `
We’ll be using the first method to make your WP theme compatible with BuddyPress – changing HTML structure in 16 BP template files transferred to your Listings theme folder in server during the BP Compatibility Process. Download the 6 BP folders transferred to your Listings theme during the process.

Starting with activity/index.php At the top of the file, replace

`

`

Save file. Then do this with the remaining 15 files except for registration/register.php where at the very bottom, you replace

`

jQuery(document).ready( function() {
if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();
jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
});
});

`

with

`

jQuery(document).ready( function() {
if ( jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).length && !jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).hasClass(‘show’) )
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).toggle();

jQuery( ‘input#signup_with_blog’ ).click( function() {
jQuery(‘div#blog-details’).fadeOut().toggle();
});
});

`

Save. Upload to server.
` `

You would still have some minor tweaks to the styles within the template. I’ve posted the tweaks used in some themes near middle of this page https://codex.buddypress.org/theme-development/theme-dev-bp-template-pack-walkthrough-twenty-ten-bp-1-5/3/
