@rossagrant – these Codex pages on the loop are your ‘bread and butter’ when theming with WordPress blogs.

Member@Jalien – not sure just how I missed your request before. If you need to use SCORM (and not everyone does/should), we released a plug-in a month or so ago that does just that. It allows you to use our SCORM Cloud product directly in WordPress and it’s BuddyPress compatible. You can see an example of it in BuddyPress on my testing blog – http://susanvillaslewis.com/scormtesting/ – although you have to be registered user to see the courses.

ParticipantI suspect that your rewrite rules are not working, especially as you are running on IIS server which handles rewrites slightly differently from Apache. I would check the WordPress codex on rewrites and IIS

ParticipantHello @hnla and @mercime. Thanks for your attention.
However I think you’ll see from previous posts that I have changed the Permalinks settings from the default (to Month and name) successfuly.
I have checked the URL settings and both the WordPress address (URL) and Site address (URL) are the same (‘blog’ subdirectory of root).
I have activated the default theme (successfully in the admin) but once installed all links from admin or the blog result in the error described.So I’m no further forward at the moment. I have also deleted and reinstalled BuddyPress. No difference.
Happy to leave the ‘broken’ blog in place so you can look to see if I’m missing something: http://www.warchest.co.uk/blog/
Thanks in advance

ParticipantI know you don’t want to use a plugin or edit the core files but then you’ve basically got no options to disable gravatar. This will help, even though it is a plugin http://netweblogic.com/wordpress/plugins/disable-user-gravatar/

Member@groan , by “links” I actually mean BuddyPress URL paths such as “http://yoursite/…/groups/”. BuddyPress recognises a few of these (activity, groups, members, forums) and I believe these are directories in BuddyPress themes. Under unix operating systems (I’m installing on Linux) you can create “symbolic links” or “symlinks” which are like shortcuts to other directories. My solution was to “hack” such links into the “mobile_pack_base” and “mobile_pack_blue” themes, linking to the corresponding directories under the BuddyPress Default theme. And it worked. (I was a bit surprised) The lines starting with dollar signs are linux commands. If you don’t have command line access you may be able to create symlinks using ftp or something else, I’m not sure. If you’re on Windows I have no idea what to do.
PS. In retrospect I should have created a new and independent theme derived from “mobile_pack_base” which then included all of the symlinks. Or perhaps WordPress has a better way of doing such links that would work across platforms. I’m pretty new to WordPress.

ParticipantThis looks like a classifications listing website? Why not look at classipress? I don’t think buddypress activities would work in this case, even a simple wordpress loop might work better here… frontend editor isn’t available without some workaround and plugins but I think its coming in the next release of wordpress… classipress theme has a frontend editor
September 27, 2010 at 9:15 pm #93586jose
Participantthanks for the info about the admin bar. So there is no workflow built into BuddyPress that enables someone to post on the blog? If thats the case.. how is an account supposed to be able to know where to make a post.. or get to the back end of WordPress at all? Is this something thats missing from my install.. or a feature that doesn’t exist in BuddyPress?
Also.. Anyone have any tips on setting up my domain/subdomain/wp-install directory correctly so its all named correctly. I have a external domain set to the Bluehost name servers… a subdomain – sdcityrobotics.saltbored.com – set up to alias to the publichtml directory my install is in.. so how do i get everything to look like http://www.sdcrobotics.com/activity .. instead of http://www.saltbored.com/sdcityrobotics/activity?
September 27, 2010 at 7:40 pm #93578jose
ParticipantOk I figured it out. The author role does have the ability to make blog posts… Its just that through their buddypress interfaced account.. they’re never given a link to —-> http://www.saltbored.com/sdcityrobotics/wp-admin/post-new.php… to create one. Where in the buddypress front end can they choose to “create a new post”. or to get to the back end WordPress interface to see the dashboard?
September 27, 2010 at 7:01 pm #93573jose
ParticipantSo what I have left to try is setting up the default author role to be able to create blog posts. This is where I was trying to get with messing with the permissions through a plugin. I don’t know how much I care about this feature.. because this introduces group members to the entire wordpress backend.. and I’d like to just have each account only make blog posts and edit nothing.
also… this may seem simple.. but how do i get the site to show with the url structure i described before?

Hugo Ashmore
ParticipantIt is a rather important bit of information the server platform Apache and IIS have different approaches to rewrite capability, you may need to speak to your hosts and explain that you need some form of url rewriting for your site.
This WP Codex page gives some detail on IIS and permalink structures and rewriting.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks
This is essentially an issue resting with the core app WP rather than BP

If you are on single wp, upgrade to wordpress Multisite.
Then you can limit it from Super Admin->Options->Limited Email RegistrationsSeptember 27, 2010 at 3:56 pm #93547jose
ParticipantPaul,
Thank you so much for your insight! Here’s what I’ve got now:
1. I’m pretty sure we’re using the single site version of WordPress(maybe this is known as the MU version?). It was installed through our server using SimpleScripts. I was aware of the plugin option, but didn’t want to get into that yet until I had the account creation issues taken care of. Thanks for the info.
2. Disabled the BuddyPress plugin, as well as the Group Documents plugin (and reverted to the default non-BuddyPress theme). Created an account, and got the confirmation email right away. The WP account registration was just “username”, and “email”… and WP emails the password. The BuddyPress registration required much more info. So without BP turned on.. Accounts worked.. with it turned on.. The account gets created, but no activation email gets sent out.. thoughts?
3. I’m referring to the WordPress setting: Site Address (url): “Enter the address here if you want your site homepage to be different from the directory you installed WordPress.” I’m trying to point the domain to sdcityrobotics.saltbored.com , and it will display as http://www.sdcrobotics.org (our domain).
4. Got it. I was just curious as to if there were some settings I was just totally missing.
BlueHost Issues !?!?
1. Ok don’t use SimpleScripts or WordPress.. Just install WP manually on my server, and then install the BuddyPress plugin manually? And that will get it to work?
2. I’ll definitely search around for BH. Thanks for the tip!September 27, 2010 at 11:36 am #93154In reply to: BuddyPress Competition is heating up

ParticipantBeen using jomsocial since it’s early beta stage (almost 2 years) and now switching to buddypress for a huge community site.
Don’t like that twitter, ’cause to have “jomsocial + wordpress goodness by corephp” you have to spend $218,99 compared to $0,00 for buddypress.However, what I like of jomsocial is that it already comes with built-in must-have applications/plugins for a community such as videos, photos, events (besides standard ones like groups, forums, pm). Plugins all developed by the same developers (come built-in with the installer). Instead with buddypress you depend on plugin’s developers (events, photos, privacy….) and what if they’ll stop supporting/updating them? Also in jomsocil the users is given the possibility to add what application they want to their profile.

KeymasterAh, Bluehost

1. If you are running the multisite version of WordPress, on the super admin’s options there is a setting for default profile. Alternatively, there are lots of plugins that control this sort of setting on. I use a couple of role management plugins on a few sites but I’m not sure what’s best. Hopefully someone can recommend one.
2. If you disable BuddyPress, and register an account on the site (via WordPress), do you receive the email? If you don’t, it is either ending up in your email’s spam or your server is not configured to send emails correctly. However, since you’re on Bluehost, have a look at the bottom of this message first.
3. That site URL setting should match the URL of your site. I’m not sure what you mean by “pointed url”, but you should probably only change it if you have moved the site from one_domain.com to another_domain.com.
4. Depends on definition of “easy”; they are in the theme’s header.php.
Bluehost: We have seen issues with Bluehost previously. I do not know if all the issues still apply, but in general:
1) I suggest that you do not use simplescripts to install (or even WordPress).
2) RE: your email problem. I suggest you search this site for “Bluehost” as we have had lots of discussion around it previously but, from memory, https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/ might fix the problem (it has to be a valid email account, so you may need to create it first).September 26, 2010 at 10:29 pm #93492In reply to: Multi-Site and BP
@mercime
ParticipantYup, those are abnormal behaviors for a WP multisite installation.
I would suggest that you make a backup of files and database, then re-install from scratch – clean wp-config.php, delete .htaccess file and drop database tables. I would suggest not using “Enable Multisite Plugin” and Create a Network manually. Get your feet wet already with the nitty gritty.
Read this BP Codex article – Before installing BuddyPress – specifically about double checking WP “wellness” before activating BuddyPress https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/before-installing/#wp-configuration for a less bumpy road to BP social site.

Maciej Skrzetuski
ParticipantYes, /httpdocs/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bbpress and all the *.php files exist.
I use the default buddypress theme. I don’t use any plugins besides buddypress. My httpdocs is chmod 777 for installation. BP has written the following into .htaccess:
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]# END WordPress
bb-config.php has the same config for database as wp-config.php.
I have following tables in my db.
