Any solution to the
tag not taken by firefox in latest plugin modificaiton with WordPress 2.9.2 and Buddypress 1.2.3?
I don’t imagine it would be related to the WordPress version… but you never know. One thing I find confusing is the instruction to replace the “activitycomments” folder in the default theme. BuddyPress 1.2.4.1 does not have such a folder in it’s default theme.
That’s only on WordPress.com and only for blog comments. It’s proprietary code unless Automattic decide to release it to wordpress.org. And then someone would need to adapt it for BP as well.
@thekmen I’m talking about the first plugin you mentioned… the 2nd one, https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-activity-as-blog-comments/, doesn’t look like it would do what I’m looking for… are you sure you are not talking about the first one you mentioned:https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-group-forum-extras/ ??
Here’s a question regarding the WP-Multi Network Plugin and WordPress 3-RC1
Everything works swimmingly so far apart from one thing. When I try and signup up for a new blog on one of the networks it doesn’t redirect to the wp-signup.php file corectly. Works fine on the main site but not on the multi network sites I’ve setup.
Guessing this can be fixed using .htaccess to redirect those requests so any tips on how to go about this would be fantastic.
@pisanojm, @takeo really sorry, I activated a few plugins today for testing, this is the one that worked out of the box for me https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-activity-as-blog-comments/
yes…that is the plugin I first tried and got the furthest with…these are my issues…when I log in via facebook connect it does not refresh the page so it just sits there and if I press the facebook connect login button again it then refreshes and I’m logged in…
then, I can not navigate anywhere via the admin bar…it just refreshes the page and takes me back to my homepage. I can not edit my profile or add a pic, etc via the the admin bar. I can only edit my profile (wordpress profile) using the edit profile link on the facebook login widget. However, I can join groups, leave comments and add friends…IF I can figure out a way to even get to the groups/members area.
It does not have any avatar/pic it does not use your facebook pic either. 
anyway…thanks again. 
If you’re moving to WPMU, forget about BuddyPress at the moment. Once you have tested that WPMU is working correctly, then you can install BuddyPress.
@wordpresschina – I have the same issue as you. One theory for a solutions is to use the import for Ning plugin, .
You will see in the comments that I asked @boonebgorges if he thought it might be possible to use a regular CSV instead of one generated by Ning. He responded that in theory it should work because the only two required column headers are “name” and “Email” and any other columns would “sniffed out”.
WARNING: I have not tried this yet and therefore can not tell you if this actually will work.
If you do try this and have success please let me know.

You shouldn’t have any. I’d recommended backing everything up, switching back to the default WordPress theme and disabling all plugins (including BuddyPress). Then when you have WP 3.0 up and working, re-enable everything one-by-one.
Most of the early BuddyPress plugins were WPMU specific as that’s what BuddyPress ran on, and whilst a lot will work with regular WordPress, it looks like you have one that doesn’t.
Same problem. I’ve tried using a plugin that lets you add custom fields to your rss feed. (http://justintadlock.com/archives/2008/01/27/custom-fields-for-feeds-wordpress-plugin) but just doesn’t work, like buddypress adjusted the default wordpress feed generator. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix?
Try “registered users 2” ( https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/registered-users-only-2/ ). It is compatible with MU and buddypress. I use it for one of my sites. “Authenticate” looks like it is very very old (only tested compatible up to wp 2.5.2)
Sorry I can’t help more 
I think i now realize i’m viewing buddypress in a fundamentally wrong way but this is probably a testament to how well buddypress ‘feels’ integrated with wp. The theme folders of buddypress need to be viewed as an extension of a wordpress plugin rather than a template file hitting primarily the wordpress core as typical template files do. That being said i should be focussing my effort on plugin filtering/hooks and doing my activity stream tweaks as a separate plugin that listens for new blog posts and then does whatever required actions i throw at it. Am i closer to enlightenment now?
Is there a “register” link on the login page? If not, do you have “anyone can register” checked under wordpress admin> Settings > General?
does it work with wordpress 3.0 network?
Works not on WordPress 3.0-RC1-15092
Thanks for the reply, I just went into my wp-admin panel and on to Buddypress>General Settings but I do not find any Membership box. Here are the choices available:
Disable BuddyPress to WordPress profile syncing?: Yes No
Hide admin bar for logged out users?: Yes No
Disable avatar uploads? (Gravatars will still work): Yes No
Disable user account deletion?: Yes No
Disable global forum directory?: Yes No
Disable activity stream commenting on blog and forum posts?: Yes No
Default User Avatar
I also tried the other sections under Buddypress, and they don’t seem to be there. Am I missing anything?
Thanks
ok guys. figured it out. this killed me today. godamighty.
needed somebody to send me link to this resource:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/email-notification-not-working/?topic_page=2&num=15
anyway, there’s some kind of mail issue for ppl hosted at bluehost. you have to get the Mail From plugin:
http://code.andrewhamilton.net/wordpress/plugins/mail-from/
and then everything works fine.
just heads up for ppl that have this issue in the future.
i’m doing this in my template in activity/entry.php
My goal is to filter wordpress posts of a particular category so i can grab some post meta data and make some really cool things happen in my activity streams.
Wish i could help out and update the codex but i don’t have the buddypress function knowledge to be an authority there (yet). Just a few snippets/examples in there i think would go a long way to make it all click. I totally understand though that this is a large endeavor to maintain/develop on one path and document/support on another.
@rossagrant if you look in the screen shots of the plugin at the wordpress repository, you’ll see pictures. The karma points should show up right next the the users login name.
It could be another plugin that is interfering, or perhaps you have some special database table names which are not being picked up properly. hmmm. if you can send me information about your install, I can try to help.
Disable BuddyPress. Do you get any emails from WordPress on itself? e.g. user registration, comment notification, etc.
