@art1c

Have you tried my plugin?
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/add-all-nav-links-to-bp-adminbar

Along with enabling or disabling the “Add WordPress pages” and “Add Buddypress components” features, you have complete control over the style of the adminbar in an easy-to-use UI. Just enter the colors you want where you want them, save, and you’re done.

Yes, I suspect the group template only has the current group initialised when you are on a single group page. So, only has one group to loop over. The same as being on a single post page vs. a category page in standard WordPress. We had a similar issue with the activity loop.

Try passing the full set of parameters to the groups loop, rather than either a subset or none.

Let us know if that fixes it.

and adding all your wordpress pages to the menu dynamically..

There’s also a snippet for putting the pages into a drop down menu instead of straight across the top..

The devs are working on it. Maybe a month or so… in the meantime this plugin might help. https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-kaltura-media-component/

in wordpress settings General check if you have the time zone set right.

Im not sure why it only solves part of your problems.. But I wrote up an article complete with plugin to dynamically add all your pages to the buddypress bar.. Maybe this will help?

Hey this thread might be a little bit old.. But I wrote up a tutorial on adding menu items, drop down menus, & drop downs with flyouts Via a plugin so its all upgrade safe.
The link is here:

Here is another tutorial on how to remove the downward facing arrows from certain bp menu items:

“the buddypress links show either as blue links in a tree on a white page”
Based on search in this site, there have been issues with the qTranslate plugin, Since the plugin also hooks onto the bp adminbar, it could have caused your links to appear without any styling. Did you follow the instruction to delete code line for qTranslate to play nice with BuddyPress? https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-qtranslate/

Is your WP single site or multisite? Test WP functions first before installing BuddyPress to isolate the problems you have in your install. Run Settings > Permalinks and set it to other than default. Deactivate BuddyPress and qTranslate. Now go change themes in WordPress site – is the theme layout showing as expected? Upload media in site. If you’ve gone multisite, upload media in subsite/blog also, are images showing up in posts with WP default theme (twentyten) on for main site and subsite? If answer to either is no, then you have to resolve those issues first before installing BuddyPress by going to https://wordpress.org/support/

@thelandman – username.websitename.com certainly.

This BP.org site is currently undergoing some Ninja renovations. Not quite sure why the links you gave are redirecting to different BuddyPress plugins in this site. I got Eventlite the first time then gPress the second time I clicked on the link. Might be because plugins are good to WP 2,9,2 but then so are some other plugins.tagged buddypress
@boonebgorges ping! BP Ninja Lead

EDIT- Thank you for your patience. Housekeeping is most probably ongoing.
All plugins listed in BP.org extend plugins are available in WordPress.org plugin repository

1. I’ll check about the invite tab, that is strange behaviour (I haven’t been able to to do that much as I have exams this week — I’ll be addressing all bugfixes for 0.1.2 from Monday onwards.

2. If an event creator invites someone, then the registrations get auto approved. If someone else (apart from the creator) invites people, then they get the “pending” status. ( I had assumed that anyone invited by the event-creator himself shouldn’t be given a pending status.)

Also, I’ve started using Google Code hosting for EventPress and related issues — that way I don’t have to keep checking this forum, the plugin forum, the wordpress plugin form (as EP also runs without BP) and my blog for feedback — http://code.google.com/p/eventpress/ . So, beyond this point, I’ll be checking the google project more often (and more of a chance to see a reply there).

I am also having this problem and I see no new information. Is there a fix?

In my installation, the Adminbar isn´t displayed on the login page. This is a function of WordPress … You could hide it for example with CSS.

You’d have to create your own conversion script.

If Sharetronix offers some type of export functionality, this would probably make things a little easier, though you’d still need to build a script so WordPress / BuddyPress can parse it.

You’ll want to use Paul Gibbs’ Welcome Pack plugin for new users to have a bunch of default friends :
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/welcome-pack/

By default, Welcome Pack sends friend invites; to have the plugin auto-accept friend invitations, read this:

For your other questions, please post them on the forum.

done. Actually the reason why i was looking at the code was to see if I could add a twitter feed e.g. `http://search.twitter.com/search.rss?q=wordpress` and somehow not have the forum icon showing in the activity feed but the icon of the original author of the “tweets”

this is in the google:image_link entry so I was thinking if “groups_record_activity” handles something like “avatar” , have to look in to it

Yup, you create a theme using the BP files that are for WP like single.php and then link to the CSS in your BP folder. Then when you edit the default themes styles it automatically updates the secondary blog. I may even do one of these and upload to WP theme repo as it’s something that keeps getting asked about.

Perhaps a hybrid of @boonebgorges‘ group management with @nuprn1‘s https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-restrict-group-creation/ ?
