BuddyPress.org

For a free alternative, you can try Theme My Login:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/theme-my-login/

This will make your login page:
hxxp://example.com/login/

And also, I believe buddydev.com offers a plugin for this as well, but it’s a premium plugin.

@boonebgorges – Looks like the button hooks are missing in BP Template Pack:

This will fix the issue stevieg is experiencing.

Hello Travel-Junkie,
i’m thinking about the purchase of BuddyVents but i’d like tohave some info about this:

i’m working on a new project based on WordPress Multisite and Studiopress Genesis Framework, i yet purchased Genesis Connect for run BuddyPress on Studiopress Theme .. what i need is to manage events and locations too, i mean i need to have a page for single location also with all informations (i taked a look at scubavagabonds.com and something like this http://scubavagabonds.com/dive-schools/aquatours-almeria/ wit a tab menu could be good) and have also a list of locations similar at that of events (like this http://test.shabushabu.eu/events/). More i need to have categories (better tags also), global search ecc ecc … so i know maybe i’m asking a lot but just i’d like to undestand if with this plugin i can do something near at my idea …

thank
Luca

Deactivate BuddyPress. Then re-upload BuddyPress files manually – FTP or cpanel, etc – clear cache, then activat BP again.

Another note, if you installed WordPress via simplescripts or fantastico, then I suggest you start from scratch and install WP manually – upload via FTP/cpanel, create DB, etc.

@Bowromir – On the last activate this plugin I got some error. I tried to activate it on the WordPress 3.2-beta1 (multisite) and BP 1.2.8.

== My new user registrations only appear in Network Admin -> Users. ==

Yeah, that’s how it’s done now since around WP 3.1 multisite, one is listed as user of a network – one login to all sites of multisite install as a subscriber (or role which the Super Admin set in options for new users).

This plugin could help with what you want to do https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/multisite-user-management/

@Scotty501 I just checked out fishbook theme in test install. The activity lists are not going bonkers like what’s happening in your site. I would backup your current fishbook theme (with your mods) to computer hard drive, then rename/delete fishbook theme folder, and re-upload fresh fishbook theme https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/fishbook-buddypress-buddypack

They are tied in with wordpress.org accounts. Not sure you can.

Just stop posting?

Here’s another easy one: https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3266

Check this out: https://codex.wordpress.org/Customizing_Feeds

I am pretty sure we wire around wordpress feeds, but I’m not positively sure.

That is neither core WordPress, or core BuddyPress What other plugins do you have running?

Under wordpress MU?

From my understanding your users shouldn’t need to go into the backend to set theme. They should have preset themes.

Thats just default settings in wordpress.

What versions of WordPress, BuddyPress are you using? What theme and plugins are you using?

Which plugin exactly? Unless it’s a BuddyPress-specific plugin, you’re best to contact the author via the wordpress.org forums for any support.

@paulhastings0 Try this filter, it will sync user name on the fly

just paste this block of code in your template functions.php

`
/////////////////////////
///// To sync user names on the fly, it will show xprofile fullname of user
/////////////////////////
function wpi_sync_member_name($data) {
global $members_template, $bp;

#$firstname = xprofile_get_field_data( 1, $members_template->member->id ); // 1 = firstname > wp_bp_xprofile_fields.id
#$lastname = xprofile_get_field_data( 51, $members_template->member->id ); // 51 = lastname > wp_bp_xprofile_fields.id
#$fullname = $firstname .’ ‘.$lastname;
#return $fullname;

return bp_core_get_user_displayname( $members_template->member->id );

}
add_filter( ‘bp_get_member_name’, ‘wpi_sync_member_name’ );
`

@athimm could be the permalink structure like this ticket https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1766

This is the template which handles the page. Copy over bp-default’s permalink.php to your child theme’s folder, and paste inside folders /members/single/activity/ following directory structure of bp-default

Use this plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/login-with-ajax/

Hi, I run RiotCart Just wanted to pop in and say that I’m no longer using the BP groups component for anything but a private group/forum for my vendors. If you’d like to see the working parts of the site (which is in the midst of an overhaul, so be kind), you can do so here: http://www.riotcart.com

I personally think that WordPress is a great platform for running an online shop, and have set up many standalone ecommerce sites for individual crafters using it in conjunction with my personal favorite shopping cart plugin, eShop. This is actually what led to the idea for RiotCart, which is more of a venue for crafters to set up a shop/site in the RC network, rather than a shop in itself. The only thing that RC sells is the monthly shop hosting terms. We use Buddypress more for the shoppers themselves, as it gave me a starting point from which I’ve implimented a p2p feedback system, a “wishlist” feature, and more. I’ve tried offering members the BP groups several different times, and the concept never seems to take off.
