BuddyPress.org

Hi all,

Im fairly new to buddy press/wordpress but I need some help to do the following:

– Private buddypress network built with theme A, with users as authors publishing content, with buddy press features private to registered members only, not indexed by google and other search engines, and located at progressivetalks.com/network

– Public wordpress site built with theme B, with no registered users, content (including photos) pulled from content published by authors on the buddypress site and indexed by google, etc, located at progressivetalks.com

The basic idea is that I want to provide a service where authors of my site publish content and can network amongst themselves, but this content is pushed to a public website where our readers can see the articles in a more attractive template (a magazine template from colorlabs) and can only comment on the articles.

Originally I wanted to have one site, with buddypress, and use the colorlabs template, but I am having lots of issues getting buddypress working with the template – probably something to do with the framework…

Any suggestions as to how I can achieve what I want to do?

Thanks for your help!

I was looking on the site of TribLocal (http://triblocal.com) under the user’s “Contributions” link

I’m still a newbie in Theming WP & BP and was amazed on its functionality

May I ask some hints or ideas on how to achieve the same functionality for my own liking? I already saw a plugin that’s running on WordPress (WP Front End Post) but that is only limited to WordPress alone. Observing the link generated by the TribLocal, (http://triblocal.com/members/{username}/community/manage/) I’m not sure if the plugin is integrated to BuddyPress or some sort of HTACCESS edits

Are there any plugins for BuddyPress that supports this kind of functionality?

Thanks for any help

Looking at the page http://codex.buddypress.org/releases/ I see that every BuddyPress update has an associated WordPress version. Does this mean that if I update BuddyPress without updating WordPress too, the updates will be useless? I’m mostly interested in security updates.

Hello everybody,
i am a newbie to wordpress and buddypress but i need to set up a custom styled website with the buddypress plugin. I have created a child theme based on the basic bp theme.
On the single view of a member i wanted to change the output of the posts. In the moment a post i displayed in the code like this:

<div class="activity-content">
<div class="activity-header">
<a title="admin" href="http://192.168.2.55/creativeworld/members/admin/">admin</a> wrote a new post, <a href="http://192.168.2.55/creativeworld/2012/04/bild/">bild!??????</a> <a title="View Discussion" class="view activity-time-since" href="http://192.168.2.55/creativeworld/2012/04/bild/"><span class="time-since">2 hours, 16 minutes ago</span></a>

</div>
<div class="activity-inner">
text mit bild

</div>
</div>

But what i want to have is a structure like this:

<div class="activity-content">
<div class="image"><img src="[featured image of the post]" /></div>
<h1>headline</h1>
<div class="text">Here comes the post text</div>
</div>

I have already build the structure like in the parent theme to change the output on this page down to /activity/entry.php but then i found out, that the html structure is generated somewhere in the core, is that correct?

So is there a possibility to change that?

Also i was wondering how i can get the userid of the member whose profile i am currently displaying!? If i had this i could write my own function to get the posts in the way i want them to be.

Thanks for your help

Hi guys- I’m new here but I love WordPress and Buddypress already and I look forward to getting more involved and helpful to the community as my learning advances. Now to the topic:

I am building a website for a client and am using Buddypress. Everything is all good, but in the flow we have created, I need to created Forum Topics and then have users comment and those comments voted on. I would like to restrict the creation of forum posts to Admins, otherwise users will add things to this forum and screw everything up. Any ideas? This seems to be different than “Restrict Group Creation”, and I need the Forum Post voting widget, so I can’t move away from that.
