BuddyPress.org

I have it in htaccess file as per below, I am sure it will correct the letters.

AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

# END WordPress

@nunomad – you could try this approach as a workaround –

Keep your main site as a WordPress site based on Thesis template and install BuddyPress in a secondary site (see instructions under docs on here)

That should preserve your hooks in the primary site. You’ll have to do some work with your urls, nav and bp site theming though

Hi Roger,

I have slightly same situation with Anthony. I would like the site users (not WordPress user) to create their own blog. I have already tried your recommendation and successfully created a network. However, only WordPress user can post blog rather than my BP registered user. Do you have any alternative solutions? Coding would be great..

BDW Anthony, can i ask what plugin do you use for your tools in footer?

Thanks

What version of WordPress and BuddyPress are you using?

Have you confirmed that your other admins are “Admins” or “Super Admins”?

You’ll need to create a custom page template and then upload it to your theme folder. Then create a brand new page (.e.g “Welcome”) using that custom page template you created instead of the default page template provided by Fishbook. Then in your Dashboard >> Settings >> Reading you’ll need to set the front page option to the brand new page (e.g. “Welcome”) that you created and set your posts to show up on a different page called “Articles” or “News” or something else that you like.

Your theme’s footer.php needs to call wp_footer, for example see https://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Development#Footer_.28footer.php.29

Perhaps there’s a misunderstanding. WordPress/BuddyPress stores several different variations of the user’s name. When you said “username”, I associated that with the user’s log-in name. The display names, like mine here, “Paul Gibbs”, are set in BuddyPress’ member profiles.

This is a WordPress limitation, which treats user registration in the same way.

@castleofislam

I just thought of an alternative solution. You can always try the Buddypress Widget Theme for what you want to accomplish.
https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/buddypress-widget-theme

Some host will do this for you for free. You can do it easy too: Archive, zip, your full database if it’s larger (or if small just download it as in .sql file.) Archive all your files and folders into a zip file. Download the 2 zip files. Create the same database on your new host (same password, dat name, dat user) and reinstall then from your donwloaded one. Upload the other zipped files to your new host into a www directory where they belong, extract them there. You can preview your website from cpanel (or plesk panel it depends what control panel you have).

Then configure your DNS pointing it to your new installation space (you will get all the IP etc. from your new host or they will do it for you if you carry also your domain name to them.)

@mdehart85 With WP 3.0.1 you can go mulisite in subdirectory mode then, as @pcwriter mentioned above, install BP in secondary blog. You can have different themes on each site.

If for your own reasons you still want the separate WP blogs using same database – read this. Make sure that both WP installs are working before installing BP in the 2nd WP install.

@nunomad

yes, they were on separate themes in 1.0.3, but the primary site and BP pages now share a single theme.

If you take a look at this plugin, you should be able to update thesis for BuddyPress:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-template-pack/

Once updated, activate the theme in your admin system and select it instead of the default.

I’m sure others will have updated thesis, so you might be able to get specific help if you run into difficulties.

I suggest asking them as a separate forum thread.

Good luck!

If you are adding your own filters you can add them either in your theme’s function.php file or in bp-custom.php in your plugins folder.

This article introduces you to the concept of filters in WordPress (albeit from a plugin perspective): https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API#Filters

To find the hook in question (content_save_pre), I suggest using your file editor and searching the files in your WordPress install. Also have a Google, and you’ll find some information: e.g. http://adambrown.info/p/wp_hooks/hook/content_save_pre?version=1.5.2&file=xmlrpc.php

[Edit: Rich has already given you the line to add for the filter – try it in your functions.php]

Hi. I have found a solution to that no activation email has sent. Check this out http://www.thinkplexx.com/neokrates/fix-wordpress-and-buddypress-sendmail-problems-sign-up-complete-activate-your-account-via-the-email-but-email-doesnt-come

I actually used Google mail account. There in Google account settings also probably has to set that you use imap. I’m not sure of that. But now the activation email is sent and users can register.

This is exactly the same post you made 1 month ago: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/users-blogs-show-up-broken/

Your first link is just a Google Blogger blog, and locks a visitor’s browser to some extent… I don’t advise clicking on it.

Your second link is a blank page.

I don’t see any sign of BuddyPress on your sites.

Are you trying to install WordPress multisite and give people a blog? – this should be your starting point: https://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network

What version of BuddyPress and WordPress are you using?

I’m not familiar with deep integration of bbpress with BP but I just wanted to make sure you’ve looked over the troubleshooting document:

https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/wordpress-and-bbpress-integration-101

Also, could you post all of the versions you are using WP, BP, and BBPress – that might help get some ideas flowing for you.

HTH

hey..
i jus started my own blog: http://www.studentbuff.com/
when somebody tries to log in…its going to the word press page ( http://www.studentbuff.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http://www.studentbuff.com )

i have wordpress 3.01 installed….and none of the 2 options above for registering new members is there as an option

@johnwinch42 –

‘fix’ isn’t the right word, as it’s not really broken – in general, WordPress blog post text is left as the original author intended it to be written (with the exception of some meddling by Matt mullenweg).

If you want to modify your blog posts to convert @pseudo references into clickable links, you can probably do it by filtering the blog content when it is saved.

BuddyPress uses the function bp_activity_at_name_filter() to create those links. Take a look at it (it’s defined in bp-activity-filters.php) and see if you can adapt / use it for the filters on blog content saves.

wordpress requires a huge amount of memory to load … arround 30Mb …
when you are activating buddypress it requires more ….

running phpinfo I found the default memory limit was 34MB
via .htaccess i have increased my memory to 64M now it is working fine i can access my wp-admin
