Topic: Help me pick a set of plugins to achieve a particular goal

in forum Creating & Extending

Hunchback
Participant

Hello everyone,

Recently i had this Great Idea ™ of a site that i would like to build and make publicly available. I don’t want to disclose the core idea before it’s online, but it should be free to use for normal people with perhaps some payed features for pro users, to pay for hosting and all that.

I will however try to explain what my needs are, and if anyone could help me pick the right tools to do it, i’d be very happy. Once i am done, i will share with you the whole thing.
I’ve spent some time looking at options, such as Elgg, WordPress and now BuddyPress. To be honest, i am quite impressed with BuddyPress, as it almost covers all my needs, right out of the box. However, the main functionality that i need is not. Details to follow.

So, the idea is to build a community-based site that would allow it’s users to:

The very basic need: Have their own profile, in which they will be able to create collections of “things”, categorize those things as they see fit, and share their profiles with everyone else.

Ideally: i want to have Contributors, who will create public collections of things in categories, then regular users will be able pick items from those lists and add them to their profiles, with the option to keep the original (or “official”) information (category, description, etc) OR modify those by changing the category, adding additional info etc. Ideally, the picked items will link to the original, for statistics, tags etc.

I suppose all that doesn’t come pre-built in a certain plugin, so even the basic functionality will do for now, i will try to build on that later on.

I tried installing the CataBlog plugin, but i can’t integrate it into the BuddyPress custom user-fields. I am not sure if it’s doable with that plugin or another.

Anyone got any ideas of plugins to use?

That is default behavior if you do not have an private community type plugins activated. You can make activity your landing page in dashboard/settings/reading or create a custom menu and add the activity page as a menu item if you don’t want it as a landing page:

Either way the activity stream is visible to logged-out-users, they just can’t post or comment.

Topic: Editing Topic Titles Tags in Groups and Forums

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

TheTechnoTalk

I’m running a WordPress site with BuddyPress. I want to edit the Title Tags of Individual posts in Forum and Groups.

Now My Topic Titles are showing like this:

Group Name | Forum | Topic Title | Site Name

It’s looking horrible for me. I tried all the coding given in this discussion.

http://buddypress.org/support/topic/editing-group-and-forum-page-title-tags/

But My problem didn’t solved. Title was showing the same.

I want to show my Topic Titles in Groups and Forums Like:

Topic Title | Site Name

Can anyone please give me the solution ?

Thanks in Advance

I think I’ve come across this myself. I themed my activity pages so assumed the issue was caused by something I had introduced. I suggest you raise the issue at BuddyPress Trac where the developers can pick it up and confirm if it is a bug.

Topic: Buddypress using default avatar instead of uploaded avatar

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

chriswinch
Participant

Hey,
I have setup buddypress and have noticed that when i goto ‘change avatar’ in the profile options and upload then crop, nothing happens. Buddypress just keeps using the mysteryman /default avatar.

I have tried the following:
– switching back to the buddypress test theme
– disabling all plugins
– checked GD is installed on the server
– made sure wordpress, buddypress and all plugins are fully up to date
– checked wp-content/uploads/avatar and the images are definitely there. Although they are in their original uncropped state.

I have now disabled gravatar completely and now buddypress is using the following image as default ( http://unit23skatepark.co.uk/wp-content/themes/unit-23/_inc/images/bp_default_avatar.jpg )

I have searched google high and low for answers but can’t seem to find a solution.
Anyone have any ideas at all.
It would be much appreciated!

@famous
That is a little strange. Are using mutisite? On a single site BP install the login/logout shows in the sidebar with the Meta Widget. Are you using a full width template? If so you can use this plugin to provide a login in the toolbar which I use with a full page template with WP 3.5.1 and BP 1.7.2 and it works, get it here:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-bar-login/
Please provide as much info as you can on your install. If I can’t help, it will help others to help you. Thanks!

Hi all,

Recently, a partner and I have been trying to develop and launch a site (newkindofcool.com). The site is looking good in our eyes and we want to go live soon…however, there is one issue: commenting on another user’s page is challenging.

When you post to another user’s account on their page, it will post, but Ajax will not show that it is automatically there, thus forcing the user to believe it is never being posted. If you simply refresh the page after you post a comment on a thread/on another user’s page you will see that it has posted…but it does not do this automatically. You can see if you post on your own page or update comments on your own page that Ajax is working, but not on others’ pages.

We also installed a fresh copy of WordPress/BuddyPress to: http://test.richgannon.net/ to no avail…same issue. Any ideas? We tested in various browsers (Chrome/FF/IE).

Here is our server information if necessary:

You can try this plugin which also has a premium version with more features. Not sure if it will meet your requirements but you can give it a try. Get it here:

Or try this method if your adventurous which I haven’t tested:

In reply to: Problem transferring (does BP have a new db system?)

@mercime
Participant

@number_6 If you activated all of the components in Settings > BuddyPress > Components, 16 BP tables should be created in your site’s database as seen here.

BP interacts with most WP tables in database so you have to port it sitewide. Backup DB manually i.e., phpMyAdmin to computer hard drive, then use this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/ to help you move your DB. Btw, do not use webhost’s one-click WP installation, upload WP manually and install. You need to be in total control of your site if you want to activate BuddyPress.

@jkuzma
– Updated from what WP/BP version to what version?
– How does new registration “break” the site? White screen or 500 error? What shows up in your error logs?
– What random pages show up 404? Pages created in Pages > Add New or BuddyPress pages?
– How did you install WordPress – via webhost one-click install or did you upload WordPress manually? one-click WP install is buggy for BP sites as you need to have full control of your site when you use BuddyPress.

@bphelp, Wow and thank you for the awesome tutorial. This is perfect! I was actually using the original site I put up as a tempsite until I had the whole Buddy Press and bbpress thing figured out. I am in the process now of building our new site which will up be and running shortly.

The information you sent me is great. The register and log-in pages are wonderful. I am probably going to have to make some changes to our WP theme as I found out just recently that they have published a bbpress child theme which works great with the original WP theme. In fact, I’ll even give them a little plug here…Mysitemyway.com has some awesome premium wordpress themes that are definitely work a “look see” by anyone that is light on WP coding and wants a truly beautiful theme! So there guys…there’s your “plug’o the day!” from LDJ! LOL

Since learning a bunch of new things playing with the old temp site, the new site is going to be formatted completely different. I owe it to everyone here for their help during this learning curve and thank you everybody for all your great advice.

I’ll put up the new url as soon as I get the stuff up and running and I know I’ll be back here to get more help as we move forward with our forum site.

Thanks again for all your help!

I’m getting this error every time I activate Site Tracking on buddypress.
Warning: Missing argument 2 for wpdb::prepare() called in E:\dev\sites\wordpress\site.com\wp-content\plugins\buddypress\bp-blogs\bp-blogs-functions.php on line 52 and defined in E:\dev\sites\wordpress\site.com\wp-includes\wp-db.php on line 990

I am currently using this setup:
Local Server using WAMP

Wordpress 3.6-beta3
Buddypress 1.7.2
BBpress 2.3.2

This happened on a fresh install.
I could’ve sworn this was not happening before with the same setup.
Not sure if this is only a beta thing, I haven’t tried it on WP 3.5.1

In reply to: Post Link appears thrice

@mercime
Participant

No I didnt try deactivating plugins since I was not sure which plugin is actually causing this error.

Having links showing up twice in Posts when you only posted it once is not normal for any BuddyPress or regular WordPress installation. It’s basic troubleshooting to deactivate plugins either one by one or by batch or all together (except BuddyPress) to find out which plugin is causing the error. Btw, you didn’t mention what theme you are using.

If I click on “add links” , it shows me add link here and then a preview button.

Is that “add links” coming from a plugin? What exactly do you preview after you click “add link”?

Im sorry for having to create a new topic on the admin bar I have been searching everywhere and everyone has given the same answer however it isn’t working for me.

WordPress 3.5.1
Buddypress Version 1.7.2

The problem is I have got rid of the admin bar but I have been left with the 25px space. However it isn’t empty white space, it has just pushed my content down, my background still remains there. I have tried body { padding-top: 0px !important; } that didn’t work, I have tried #wp-admin-bar { height: 0 !important; } that also hasn’t worked.. I have a screenshot below, my site is currently being worked on locally.

Any help is appreciated!
