BuddyPress.org

@r-a-y I used your code suggestion and some that I found in Restrict User 2 With Viper’s original Restrict User Plugin
Found here http://www.viper007bond.com/wordpress-plugins/registered-users-only/
because I wanted the site to be restricted to registered users only… still allow access to the login/activiate page and ALSO allow access to the feeds…

I ended up with this.
// Depending on conditions, run an authentication check
function MaybeRedirect() {
// If the user is logged in, then abort
if ( current_user_can(‘read’) ) return;

$this->exclusions = array(
‘wp-login.php’,
‘wp-signup.php’,
‘wp-register.php’,
‘wp-activate.php’,
‘wp-cron.php’, // Just incase
‘wp-trackback.php’,
‘wp-app.php’,
‘xmlrpc.php’,
);


It appears to be working… Do you have any thoughts on the above? Thanks

There are limitations, but it depends on what you mean by integration!

The tutorials I listed integrates single sign-on with standalone bbPress and WordPress, which consequently means BuddyPress as well.

Okay, then follow the guide from the previous thread I mentioned:
http://developersmind.com/2010/06/17/upgrading-wordpress-mu-2-9-2-to-wordpress-3-0/

Read and implement everything.

Chances are you’re missing the .htaccess edit and moving /wp-includes/ms-files.php to /wp-content/.

Follow the instructions first, primarily you need to edit the .htaccess file and you need to move /wp-includes/ms-files.php to /wp-content/.

FYI, avatars are stored in the uploads directory, which differs depending on what flavor of WordPress you’re using.

For single WP, that would be /wp-content/uploads/.
For multisite, that would be /wp-content/blogs.dir/BP_ROOT_BLOG_ID/files.

Avatars are not stored in the DB.

Doug, it looks like you upgraded from WPMU 2.9.2 to WP 3.0. Chances are you did not fully accomplish all the upgrading steps:
http://developersmind.com/2010/06/17/upgrading-wordpress-mu-2-9-2-to-wordpress-3-0/

Follow everything listed there.

@alanchrishughes – It sounds like you want to integrate a standalone version of bbPress with WordPress, I’ve already given you directions on how to do this.

Please do not hijack an old thread, post a new one to discuss your problems, or go on the bbPress forums for help.

*Edit: Here’s another guide that might be easier to follow:

When you upgraded WPMU to WP 3.0, did you correctly upgrade?

It also sounds like your BP install is corrupted. Here’s a guide to upgrade BP:

If you are not yet running BuddyPress, then you will need to visit the WordPress.org support forums. This is a lot of information on this issue. WordPress is the foundation on which the plugin BuddyPress is installed. As you indicate above in your answer to question 6, you do not even have BP installed, so this is purely a WP issue.

I’m having the same issue using it with wordpress 3.0

You need to contact the plugin author. They have a support group on BuddyPress.org but have not activated their group forum. Please read the readme.txt file or visit the plugin’s page on the WordPress Plugin Repository for information on how to contact them.

As the How-To and Troubleshooting forum is for supporting BuddyPress, and not 3rd-party plugins (especially ones that require payment to have AdSense code removed), I’m closing this thread.

@silversurferes, I’m closing this thread per above reasons. You did not do anything wrong.

You can only override functions which are pluggable – I don’t believe any exists within BuddyPress (just the standard wp pluggable.php)

actions are just trigger points that are defined somewhere in the code
https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API#Hooks.2C_Actions_and_Filters

Parts of themes have to be written specifically for BuddyPress; the project itself has been out for at least 18 months.

And you are using BuddyPress 1.2.5?

This is not currently possible with BuddyPress. There is some talk about allowing multiple BuddyPress installs under a single Multisite-enabled WordPress install, but that would not allow for the sharing of logins and passwords without some additional coding.

Which versions of WordPress and BuddyPress are you running? Also, please answer the rest of these questions: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/when-asking-for-support/

BuddyPress is a plugin that requires WordPress. It does not, nor cannot, have its own install.

Your issue is more than likely caused by your theme. It is not updated to work with BuddyPress. You need to deactivate BuddyPress. Since you cannot gain access to the admin backend, you need to drag the buddypress folder out of your /wp-content/plugins/ folder. Try logging in again. It should now be possible. Reinstall BuddyPress but do not activate until you have gone through the below process.

Here is some information on converting your WP theme to work with BuddyPress.

By the way, if you are using an older version of WP (2.9.1 or 2.9.2) you will have to click the “Activate BuddyPress Site Wide” link instead of the regular “Activate” link.

How do WP plugins work in BP?

Like any other plugin in WordPress! They’re separate entities. So let’s say you decide to use an Events Calendar plugin, that plugin will be in its own little world unless you decide to hack it to be more in rhythm with BuddyPress (display names, avatars, etc.).

All you do is unzip the theme, then copy it into your /wp-content/themes/ folder and activate it in WordPress. Very easy. You can play with it by editing the files, and activate the default theme if you make a mess.

I have not looked at your pasted code. But you are correct in stating that bp-custom.php loads prior to the accessory core BP files. I’d suggest the following tweaks:


remove_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘friends_setup_nav’, 5);
add_action( ‘bp_setup_nav’, ‘my_friends_setup_nav’);


Basically, hooks are defaulted to a priority of 10. So, you want to make sure that friends_setup_nav is removed before your custom my_friends_setup_nav() is added.

This is just a quick stab at guessing the proper hook firing sequence. So, if this does not work, I suggest installing my WordPress Hook Sniffer plugin.
