BuddyPress.org

Also, how can I hide the Activity pages etc. until the user loggs in?

Read my reply in the following thread to accomplish this.
https://buddypress.org/support/topic/private-community-with-public-wordpress/

I might disable the plugin and edit the site so when a user logs in they see their member profile instead of the sitewide activity. Any ideas on how to do this?

Have you tried this plugin?

@bphelp I do believe I have it now. Yes, my butchered theme that I’m learning on was sending off errors. I enabled the BP-Default Theme and we’re good. I have the BP navigation tabs going to the Sample Page.

I knew you had it right, but I didn’t understand and I didn’t know my theme was causing errors. I use this site for practicing, then I implement the changes that work back to my new site: http://www.gumpolen.com

Thanks,

Kevin

That sounds more like your theme is shooting off errors. Try activating the bp-default theme and see what happens. also make sure there is no extra lines before or after the opening and closing php tags in the bp-custom.php

did you add the code to the bp-custom.php you create in yoursite/wp-content/plugins? did you remember to add the code between opening and closing php tags and save the file? I have it working flawless on wp 3.5.1 and bp 1.7 beta 1. for example this line:
wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/register’ );
redirects to register page
you could for example change it to something like this:
wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/sample-page’ );
that would redirect to the sample page.

@bphelp I missed my greater than sign in starting out the page. Now your code doesn’t show, but when I log out, i get an error across the top of the screen instead:

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/*****/public_html/inlandcoder/wp-content/themes/frisco-for-buddypress/members/index.php:12) in /home/*****/public_html/inlandcoder/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 876

@bphelp I tried this and when I refreshed my site, all of your code appears below the admin bar on my site — above my header.

I created a new page and named it “new page here.”

Here’s your code with my info:

function bp_guest_redirect() {

global $bp; if ( bp_is_activity_component() || bp_is_groups_component() /*|| bbp_is_single_forum()*/ || bp_is_forums_component() || bp_is_blogs_component() || bp_is_page( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) ) { // enter the slug or component conditional here if(!is_user_logged_in()) { // not logged in user wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/new-page-here’ ); } // user will be redirect to any link to want } } add_filter(‘get_header’,’bp_guest_redirect’,1);

Am I to insert my URL as well? I tried with and without changing it and that didn’t work either.

It stripped the code again. Just place this between opening and closing php tags in the bp-custom.php file:
`
function bp_guest_redirect() {
global $bp;
if ( bp_is_activity_component() || bp_is_groups_component() /*|| bbp_is_single_forum()*/ || bp_is_forums_component() || bp_is_blogs_component() || bp_is_page( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) ) {
// enter the slug or component conditional here
if(!is_user_logged_in()) { // not logged in user
wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/register’ );
} // user will be redirect to any link to want
}
}
add_filter(‘get_header’,’bp_guest_redirect’,1);
`

the above reply stripped out the code so hopefully this will print out!
`

`

create a file named bp-custom.php that you will then place in yoursite/wp-content/plugins folder after you paste the following code in it:
`

`
Just change the /register in the line :
wp_redirect( get_option(‘siteurl’) . ‘/register’ );
to the page you want the logged out user to be directed too!
I found this somewhere on the net so props to whomever coded it!

Click blog above, download the beta, install and enjoy any WordPress theme as your BuddyPress theme

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-media/ is a plugin for uploading lots of media. I only have a small amount of experience with it but you may want to give it a try. I just hope you have lots of server space though because doing this can make your site massive in size.

go to wordpress.org/themes in the search field type buddypress and click search themes button. There is 9 themes there.

Hi all,

I’m the developer of FunCaptcha and we’ve just updated it to include full BuddyPress support. We’ve tested it on the latest version of BuddyPress and WordPress, as well as various earlier releases.

Just wanted to let you know that CAPTCHAs don’t all need to be painful! Users complete our FunCaptcha faster than other CAPTCHAs, with fewer frustrating failures and no typing. They work on all browsers and mobile devices, using HTML5 with a fallback to Flash. Visually impaired users can complete an audio challenge.

We have big plans for updates, new games and further additions to FunCaptcha. I’d love to hear from you guys what you want in it, how we can improve it for you, and help make your BuddyPress and FunCaptcha experience as enjoyable as possible!Please check us out!

Thanks,
