BuddyPress.org

Not aware of any tools to export BuddyPress data out of WordPress yet, unfortunately, other than a SQL export from the database.

Hi,

It’s hard to see what you are so a link would be very helpful. However, one site isn’t the same as another. What I would recommend would be to make sure before you install BuddyPress you have a ‘clean slate’ in sense of turn off all other plugins and make sure you on activating BuddyPress have the default BuddyPress theme (just at the start).

If you could however if that doesn’t work, respond with what version of WordPress you are using and a link then perhaps more can be offered as help. Otherwise, unfortunately it’s hard to say what your situation is.

If we had a time machine to go back to 2007/08, and build BuddyPress using custom post types and custom taxonomies — which weren’t usable until 2010 — we probably would.

The core team talk regularly about how BuddyPress stores data and we may move to using post types or taxonomies in the future. We’ve also directly solicited feedback from the community about this issue in the past, so be sure to check out http://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2012/03/05/custom-post-types-yesno/

This is what happens when Open Graph markup is not on a web page. You’re right to try plugins that provide Open Graph for WordPress, but I’m not aware of any plugins that provide Open Graph for the BuddyPress-specific pages.

You will need to create a tab:
http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/6719/buddypress-adding-a-new-tab-in-groups

And then you will need to create an input field to populate the tab:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/how-to-add-fields-to-group-creation-with-group-extension-api-please-read/

Note that I have never done this, but hopefully those links will point you in the right direction.

Try this, is very helpful. http://wpmu.org/how-to-build-a-facebook-style-members-only-wordpress-buddypress-site/
If you want something like this http://vdoop.com, then have a look at this https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/how-i-customize-the-first-page. @mercime helped us very much.

I’d say try WordPress plugin “social login, social sharing and social commenting”. You can disable sharing and commenting if you do not want them. Here is the link – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/loginradius-for-wordpress/

Did you try this WordPress plugin, called “Social Login, Social Sharing and Social Commenting” – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/loginradius-for-wordpress/ ? Here is a demo Buddypress site with Facebook, Twitter login feature – http://buddypress.loginradius.com/

There’s a plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-activity-plus/screenshots/
If you find any issues with the plugin, please post at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/buddypress-activity-plus

Please post support question for Activity Plus plugin at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/buddypress-activity-plus

@zaniwhoop please start a new topic next time. The code used from 2 years ago won’t work for current BP versions. Closing this one.

For your reference, this tutorial by pcwriter is pretty thorough http://wpmu.org/how-to-build-a-facebook-style-members-only-wordpress-buddypress-site/

@raminjan Sorry, not sure what you mean. Please clarify. By “wordpress buddypress comment box”, are you referring to the comment form in BP Default theme’s single.php file or to the Activity Stream comment form or something else?

Codex pages can be created through wp-admin, like any WordPress site: https://codex.buddypress.org/wp-admin/
