BuddyPress.org

Whilst I’m not familiar with the plugin I have another suggestion that you use built in featured images that comes with WordPress. Forgive me if you have other reasons for using that plugin but maybe this will work for you.

You can add post thumbnails using featured posts like this for instance in functions.php (adjust size according to what you want):

`if ( function_exists( ‘add_theme_support’ ) ) {
add_theme_support( ‘post-thumbnails’ );
set_post_thumbnail_size( 210,160, true );
}`

Then in the code:

` `

There are many ways to skin the thumbnail cat though this link may help:

Hi! I’m having same issue. No avatars on blogs.

On main buddypress blog, avatars works great and their url’s are like this:
http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/avatars/1/aab71f7a93155ef3cabb5d9660686005-bpthumb.jpg

On the other blogs, avatars aren’t displaying. Their url’s are like this:
http://example.com/files/avatars/1/aab71f7a93155ef3cabb5d9660686005-bpthumb.jpg

My installation info:
WP: 3.0.3 (updated from a WP3.0)
BP: 1.2.6
Multisite & subdomains.

My .htaccess:
`# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ – [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
# END WordPress`

Is it fixed for next release of buddypress? or is there a patch that I could apply?

Thanks at all

I would like to add the Email field to the members profile… using your method!
Which file needs to be modified!?

Thanks
Bojan

What versions of WordPress and BuddyPress are you using, please?

As forums are provided totally by bbPress, it’s a possibility that as you can’t access the bbPress admin, you can’t set its time like you do with WordPress. Hmm.

EDIT: if you want to try a totally crazy “fix” which I have not even verified the problem exists, let alone the cause, try creating a new record in your wp_bb_meta table as follows:
object_type = bb_option
object_id = 0
meta_key = gmt_offset
meta_value = ? (set this to a number for the timezone offset, i.e. “1” for central european time)

For the alternative method, use Rich’s block activity types plugin:

I get the same amount of spam on my site. I’m currently deleting one spammer every 10 minutes, and I am not sharing anything with official WordPress sites. Something is going on with Buddy/Word and someone needs to dig into it because this is insane. It isn’t just this site. It’s the code somewhere. I’m sure it’s WordPress because I have a wordpress only site running and the sign-up spam is ridiculous there too. I am not joking when I say every 10 minutes either. I’m freaking out.

@manimaranvel BuddyPress can only be activated once in either the main site or a secondary blog of a WP Multisite installation – there is no BP multisite at this time. If you allowed your members to create own blogs and then want to show the member profile in his/her blog, you can use a plugin – https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-profile-widget-for-blogs/

99% who help out here in the BP forums are volunteers. On a very rare day, someone might come into the forums and make a long long list of all that they need for a BP site and get spoonfed with all the answers in one go, though I haven’t seen that happen totally. I know you expect answers that’s why you go to the forums but on our end, we expect that you did some research on your own as well. If you want simple BP/WP install, it’s all easy (assuming you have good server). But If you want fully customized BP install, the learning curve is medium high if you’ve got WP experience.

Back to Woo’s City Guide Theme, I only mentioned that theme because I saw it just before I saw your post here – CITY GUIDE. Also, as I mentioned before in post above, you would need to install BP Template Pack, make necessary changes, and if you have HTML/CSS/WordPress theming knowledge, it’ll be a breeze. You could choose whatever WP theme you want and install BP Template Pack or get a free BuddyPress theme or go for a premium BuddyPress theme with free support.

That’s nothing to do with BuddyPress. “Subscriber” is the default WordPress role. However, I’m assuming these users have had their account activated?

That “section” could be a “group” component already in WordPress and joining groups is either voluntary for public groups or by invitation for private groups and each group can have a forum if the group admin so chooses. That’s basic behavior which can be changed via a plugin you can make to do so. You could check out BuddyPress Group component and other default components by logging in http://testbp.org/ with the username and password you used here.

@pakhermawan that would certainly be an interesting project. Install BP Template Pack plugin and follow instructions on screen. Some BP Codex articles might help you along the way:

Facebook Connect is what you are looking for I believe. I have used it with buddy press and it works fine

Have you tried https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-translate/ ?

We know about the spam problems. The volume is partly due to the fact that the user database is shared with some of the other official WordPress sites. We don’t have a magic wand, however.
